StarCraft: Tyranid Empire.

At the same time as the Kel Morian Consortium was dispatched, the battle against the original swarm army on the southern border also reached a critical stage.

From the Revanscar asteroid belt in the east to the border world Roxara in the southwest corner, this 49 light-year-long front includes as many as [-] colony worlds.

On the plane star map, it is an acute-angled triangle outlined by a slanted line slanting downward from right to left.In the battle zone, even on the surface of the planet, the density of the Zerg is still rising, which is equivalent to hundreds of thousands of Zerg distributed on every hectare of land.

The small colonial world formed by mining and initial geographical exploration may only have a few hundred to 1000 people in a small town, and the large world has hundreds of millions of people.According to the final statistics, the population of the empire affected was as many as 40 billion. The cost of evacuating refugees from the war zone alone was an astronomical figure, and even yachts equipped with warp speed engines were included in the conscripts.

Formidable fleets appeared on every world that called for the Empire, and the scale of epic sea battles that could be recorded in the annals of history was enough to dwarf any battle in the history of the Koprulu Sector.

Wherever the fighting is most intense, the Imperial Marines are there.

Fierce battles are raging everywhere, whether in the vastness of deep space or on vast alien worlds, peerless starships are burning, cities are razed to the ground, and countless dead are lost.This may be one of the bloodiest, cruelest and most terrifying battles in human history.

People have experienced hardships and times of peace and prosperity at the same time, so they know the hard-won things now, so they will never allow the same fate to happen to themselves and their children and grandchildren.

The soldiers were young when they bid farewell to their homeland and went to the battlefield. Some even crossed the Koprulu sector to reach the front line, and many of them will be buried in places they have never heard of before.

Copluby's Milky Way is just an inconspicuous corner, like a speck of dust, but for short-lived human beings, it is everything from birth to death.

By now, few people think that this is just a small-scale invasion that will soon subside.The universe is so big, but there is no room for human beings. There are hundreds of billions of stars and hundreds of billions of worlds in the Milky Way, but only the land under our feet is our home.

Not everyone enlists voluntarily, especially in a prosperous world that has never experienced war, and evasion is not uncommon.There are so many people in this world, and human nature is so complicated, it is too one-sided to simply divide them into cowards and warriors.

Even the soldiers who joined the Imperial Army were not born brave fighters. I don't know how many people hated the war they were participating in from the bottom of their hearts, and felt at a loss about the meaning of their own battles.

Because compared to the million-level large army and large fleet, the power of one person is too small to change anything.In front of the swarm, human beings seem so insignificant.What mankind is facing is not a beast, but another race and another civilization.

Some people may think that the War of Kailian should not have been fought in the first place, but if they stand up and say that humans can live in peace with the Zerg without fighting, they will definitely be considered foolish. …

From top to bottom, people began to believe that only war can bring peace, because their enemy is the zerg.

On March 3, Augustus, who was in the Augustograd Palace, finally received news from the front.

These days, Augustus has been eating and sleeping in the battle center of the palace, and the soldiers around him are the same.These people are all young people about the same age as Augustus, and the oldest is only 45 years old.

They slept very little and were always working, for the fate of Kopruul's humanity rested on their shoulders.

It was dawn at this moment, and an inverted meteor shower was falling in the sky of August Grad. It was a fleet of giant barges flying through Korhal's thin atmosphere, and such a meteor shower could be seen even in daylight. arrive.

The many desks and consoles in the combat center were filled with people. Someone hadn't closed his eyes for two or three days, and even his colleagues fell asleep on chairs when they were arguing over the details of the battle plan.

In the emperor's combat center, almost all the most outstanding military tactics and strategic talents are included, with flexible minds and quick responses.Anyone who can come here is a talented person, regardless of their origin and blood.

Being able to work with the Emperor of the Empire is such a proof, and there is no Marshal of the Empire who has not served here before.

There are about 500 people here. If the air purification system is still working normally, the smell in the combat center would have been turbid and unbearable.

Emperor Augustus, as always, stood among the officers, and before receiving this news he was still furious at the dereliction of duty of the officials of Tarsonis.

The recruitment and training of recruits has been going smoothly, but since equipment and supplies have to be transported from the core world, it has to rely on Augustus to work hard to build an interstellar shipping system.On the other hand, those large merchant ships comparable to battlecruisers built in peacetime are also prepared for the coming of war.

A few days ago, the supplies that were supposed to be sent to the front line were piled up in the port of Alexandria in Tarsonia due to the lack of cargo ships.This is not an unforgivable thing, but in the end it was found out that the officials in charge of the matter tampered with the computer system and changed the flight schedule in order to steal supplies.

The Tarsonian transport official was so stupid that Emperor Augustus denounced him for being brainless.

Now, it is a certainty that this person will be assigned to New Folsom. There are people who deserve their crimes, pirates, rapists, human traffickers or some kind of murderer. In short, unimaginable crimes can be imagined in this star sector Both can be found in New Folsom.

The emperor's requirements for officials were always very strict, which inevitably put them under great pressure.But unless it was absolutely necessary or he was really angry, he would not punish these people lightly.

The only exception was Tychus Finlay, who always seemed to be able to piss off the majestic Emperor in novel ways.The last time he ordered 28 workers with the surname surname in an illegal entertainment venue in Aurora at one time, he actually said that the boss should go to the palace to collect the bill, because the emperor should pay him next month's salary. …

At this time, Augustus actually had to send Faraday to catch people, and he really didn't want his face.Considering that Tychus didn't do this kind of thing once or twice, the palace didn't have a temper.

Tychus is considered the founding hero of the country. He has no hobbies, that is, eating, drinking, whoring and gambling. He enjoys every day in the world of red wine and greenery.Fortunately, now Tychus has been sent to the front line to drive Odin, and the old boy ran away as soon as he got the advantage.

"There's no need to be angry with this kind of person. He can get into this position. All of us are responsible." Renault said while waving the flag on the tactical sand table:

"Look, the original Zerg is walking according to the route we have drawn for them. So far, it seems that they are not dissatisfied."

On the sand table, the defenders of the former New Fortinier in the lower left corner have retreated to the Palavin galaxy.At this time, the original Zerg that was blocked at the border immediately rushed out of this vacancy, leaving only some Zerg with not very flexible brains, who did not react and were still biting the defense lines in other areas desperately.

At this time, Prince Arcturus of the Empire will make a move.

After the defenders of Neue Fortinier withdrew, the reserve fleet led by Prince Arcturus Mengsk attacked from the other direction, driving the primordial zerg as far as possible from the imperial territory.

At present, it seems that Prince Arcturus's attack has been quite effective, and the original Zerg really chose the most convenient and only way.

As the emperor's elder brother, Prince Shirahoshi's ability to lead the army may be far superior to that of his brother, but he doesn't have many opportunities to display it.You know, Arcturus was once Horace Warfield's boss, and he knew what it means to be a lieutenant when he was a lieutenant.

Even though he never went to military school, Arcturus Mengsk seemed born to march and fight.

Arcturus first laid a large number of sky mines inside and outside the galaxy around Asilia 4, and then used the scattered fleets to fake numbers and electronic signals to bluff, so that the original Zerg who were not good at using conspiracy and tricks thought that they were falling into the empire. Surrounded by the fleet, they can only look for "loopholes" in the encirclement.

The Imperial Prince is not just a politician, he is happy to help his brother behind the scenes, and he belongs to the Mengsk family anyway.

"Where is Zuerwen?" Augustus looked at the sand table and asked this sentence three times.

"Zurwin has left Asilia 4, and the prince believes that it is leading the group to evacuate." It was Lieutenant General Ulysses who spoke.

"If it's Zuerwen, after figuring out our true strength, it won't choose to continue attacking." Augustus nodded:
"Zulwin is cunning and greedy. Its favorite thing to do is to make two families fight each other so that it can reap the benefits. But Zulwin certainly doesn't want the original zerg to lose both sides of the human race, and then let the overlord swallow them all."

"This guy, even though he's just a zerg, is very smart."

"When we fight the master, this guy may come back to deal with us again." Renault said.

"If this is the case, Zuerwen will definitely choose to form an alliance with us." Augustus didn't think so:

"In Zuerwin's view, the Overlord is the embodiment of Amon's will. Guess what, it must be terrified now, thinking that Amon will make himself a second Overlord."…

"That would have to be a horror story from Zurwin's point of view," Reynolds said.

"Tell Arcturus that the remaining original Zerg tribes must follow Zurwin." Augustus continued: "Now is not the time to celebrate, and I worry about the original Zerg tribes who do not obey." I will find another way and decide to add food to the human land."

"That would be a headache."

This is indeed what Augustus is most worried about. The advantage of the brain worm system is that the zerg under his command will never disobey orders.But the most prominent feature of the original Zerg was autonomy. To put it bluntly, they were used to being alone. They were likely to become small groups on the border of the empire, and even threatened the territory of the empire.

"Zulwin and Agdra's tribes are the two largest ones. If Agdra also keeps up with Zurwin, then it shouldn't be a problem," Lieutenant General Ulysses said.

"It's better to do that." Augustus snorted coldly: "If the master is watching from behind, I must feed Zurwin and Yagdra to Dehaka."

"This is not the end. I want to build the largest interstellar furnace to smelt alloys, and I will use Yagdra as the core."

"Dehaka? Don't say I look down on it, maybe even Duke can wrestle with it." Renault thought that Augustus was just joking, and he didn't believe that the original zerg could eat the ferocious and brutal Yagdrala, the Ash-Minded Worm:
"But you're right, these monsters have devoured so many warriors. Good brothers can't die in vain."

Tasha was once one of the most intensely fought areas, under the frenzied attack of the original zerg leader, the Yagzora pack of the gray-exhausted giants.Only the campaigns of Asilia, Seti, and Tiria can compare.

The fleet stationed in the star system originally only had twelve old behemoth-class battlecruisers and hundreds of auxiliary ships, and more than half of them were lost in the initial battle.

The gigantic ashes-destroyed giant Yagdrala is like a terrifying Balrog wandering in the starry sky. It is not afraid of high temperature and flames, and the hottest magma is just warm water to it.

Agdra is shaped like a snake-like dragon, with hot lava flowing from its steel-like skin. It does not need a fusion reactor to produce terrifying light and heat, because hot lava and hot lava flow in its blood. Combustible bodily fluids.That huge heart was not made for breathing, but for boiling the scorching blood in his body.

According to the tyrannical monster, it once defeated the Second Master and tore flesh from its bloodied body.If Yagdra's words are true, he is even more terrifying than Zongzu Zuerwen.

And Yagdra's power is indeed impressive. This terrible gray worm has chewed and chewed many capital fleets.

This horrific sight was recorded by a military reporter who said he had seen Yagdra swallow the Korhal's Revenge alive. When the monster hiccupped, countless molten metal, ash and lava burst It erupted into the vast land of Tasha.Immediately, the mountains and rivers melted, magma rivers flowed over the endless fertile fields, and the earth was scorched black.

For the warriors of the Korhal's Revenge, there is nothing like hell.

"You know nothing about primordial zerg and essences, Jimmy. Dehaka is more powerful than you think, and much more powerful."

"Seeing is believing, hearing is believing, my mother always said." Renault said.
