My monster merges everything.

Chapter 410: Counterattack

The superior sixth-order power filled Su Han's body, and the Star Torch Tree Soul in his consciousness space grew taller and taller, reaching a height of about five hundred meters. It was surrounded by bright starlight and rules, and was more closely connected with his soul.

Su Han's connection with the entire Star Torch network has become closer, his identity as the Star Torch Master has become more solid, and his ability to mobilize Star Torch power has also increased.

"There's a chance to make some adjustments to the way the Star Torch is built."

Su Han seemed to have realized something and had a new idea about how to build a more closely connected Star Torch Tree. If enough rules were injected, perhaps all the Star Torch Trees could be gradually connected more deeply through the Star Torch network.

Suppressing the thought, he looked at the Blood Hell Dragon King, staring closely at the skills of Guardian of the Ocean.

Different from simply controlling the sea water, this skill of Guardian of the Ocean is more like a blessing from the ocean, which entrusts the authority of the ocean to the Blood Hell Dragon King in a special way.

The closer you are to the ocean, the more powerful the ocean's power will be, including recovery, defense, strength, and concealment.
The overall strength will be greatly improved, this is the protection of the ocean.

"It's time to find a way to deal with the insect demon."

Su Han's eyes flashed with a cold light. Although the insect demons had not broken through the defense line in these days, the threat they posed still put many soldiers in crisis, and many of them died.

Only by getting rid of the insect demons can we truly suppress the offensive of the abyss Zerg and push them into the sea. By then, even if there are eclipse worms, they will not be able to make much movement.

"The Colonial Forces provide cover, and the Mecha Forces set up their turrets and bombard that Thunder Shield Bug."

On the battlefield, the Zerg swarm is still attacking, and as the war progresses, more Zerg troops are hatched. Although there are no fourth-order ones, monsters like the third-order Thunder Shield Worm and Thorn Worm frequently appear on the battlefield.

The Thunder Shield Worm continued to advance under the heavy pressure of psychic bullets and mortars, with a large number of first and second level worms following behind its huge body, ready to attack.

The team leader of this section of the mountain wall had already locked onto the Thunder Shield Worm. With heavy steps, two psychic exoskeleton mechas strode directly to the front, aiming their shoulder cannons at the Thunder Shield Worm. They quickly condensed psychic energy and instantly shot out a terrifying beam of light that pierced through the body of the Thunder Shield Worm.

"Be careful of the stinging bugs!"

A black shadow suddenly climbed up the city wall, and its sharp tentacles quickly climbed up the wall. In a short time, it crossed dozens of meters and headed straight for the wall.

The team leader was quick-witted and agile. He flapped his wings behind his colonial suit and swooped down. His sharp claws slashed out with psychic light blades, knocking the stinging insect down.

The attack of the third-level monster was interrupted, and the team members immediately covered it with a large number of rocket launchers and mortars to break up the attack.

"Prepare for rotation. The medical team is ready. Injured soldiers will receive immediate treatment. Those who meet the enhancement standards will be given a booster injection immediately."

As the large-scale attack was repelled, a new round of fire bombs hit the battlefield and the rift. The Zerg's offensive slowed down, and Liu Rulong immediately issued an order for rotation.

Liu Rulong pondered the current situation in his heart. In half a month, with the continuous addition of psychic exoskeleton mechas, mechanical giants, colonial generals, and colonial soldiers, the situation on the battlefield was generally under control.

However, the continued fighting still resulted in a large number of casualties, with the number of casualties exceeding 30,000 in just half a month.

"If we can break through to the fifth level, there will be more areas that can be suppressed by the fifth level."

He saw the combat power of the fifth-order insect beasts of the Apostle Zerg, and thought that if he could have a few more fifth-order combat forces, he would be able to defeat the sixth-order insect demons without a surprise attack.
Suddenly, a spatial fluctuation came from beside him, and Liu Rulong immediately turned around.

"it's me."

Su Han appeared beside Liu Rulong, his eyes swept across the battlefield with a slightly gloomy expression. The casualties on the battlefield were far greater than he had expected.

Liu Rulong's eyes lit up with joy: "Success?"

"I've made a breakthrough. What's the situation now?"

"The insect demons attack from time to time. Although your apostles are suppressing them, there will still be considerable casualties in a long-term battle. Unless the insect swarm is suppressed to less than 5000 million, or most of the high-level units are killed, the attack will not stop."

The General Staff has estimated that only by suppressing the overall strength of the Abyss Zerg to a certain extent will they give up their offensive tendency.

Su Han frowned slightly, and Liu Rulong said, "In fact, if it drags on, it will be beneficial to us. A large number of insect corpses can be used as materials for strengthening potions, injection potions, colonized heavenly soldiers, heavenly generals, etc., which greatly improves the overall combat effectiveness and equipment updates. The battlefield environment also allows many soldiers to break through. But, many people will die."

When almost all the people are contractors, the death of some frontline soldiers can be quickly replaced. Compared with the number of casualties, the number of these replacement soldiers will be greater.

But Liu Rulong didn't like to exchange human lives for these supplies, and Su Han didn't like it either.

"Think of a way to gather the insect demons and most of the fifth-level insect beasts together."

Liu Rulong looked at Su Han in surprise: "You want to take action? What if that seventh-level person also takes action?"

If the battlefield is not chosen correctly, or if the seventh-level Eclipse Worm has other means, then there will be great trouble and the defense line may collapse.

"Before the seventh-level eclipse bugs can react, we should cut off their connection first. At least a large number of the bug demons have been killed. The bug swarm should not dare to launch a large-scale attack easily."

It is not so easy for a sixth-level insect demon to descend into the real world. After all, the suppressing force exists. The insect swarm has been preparing for so long, but only a few people have been scrambled.

"Four-headed insect demons. It's not easy to gather them all together."

Liu Rulong fell into deep thought, then said, "Are you sure?"

"I can't beat a seventh-level monster, but I won't lose either. However, I only have one chance to launch a surprise attack on the insect demon. Once I attack, the eclipse insect will know that I have recovered and will not let the insect demon get close to me easily."

Liu Rulong was a man of action. That night, he asked the staff to deduce a plan with this goal in mind. He stayed up all night and finally put the only plan in front of Su Han.

In the conference room, Su Han, Liu Rulong, Bai Qilan and other senior executives were sitting here, with the plan of the General Staff in front of them.

Zhu Xiong and others needed to guard Linghai City and could not be there in person, but they also projected their spirits here through the Star Torch Tree and participated in the meeting.

"The plan given by the General Staff is that if we want to gather the insect demons together, we need enough bait and sufficient threats. There is only one way, and that is to attack."

Liu Rulong spoke of the plan in a deep voice. He glanced at Su Han and said, "Breaking through the mountain wall is a bait that the insect swarm cannot refuse, but we cannot take this risk. Once the city is breached, we cannot control the number of casualties. So we can only use another bait, the Lord's sixth-level apostle. What they fear most is the Lord's apostle. The many attempts over the past half month are not so much about finding loopholes in the mountain wall as it is about finding the weaknesses of the sixth-level apostles and looking for opportunities to kill them."

"Why don't we lure them over here and let one of the apostles deliberately expose himself for a long time? Lure them to the vicinity of the mountain wall, or pretend to chase them for a distance. This way, they will not miss this opportunity."

Zhu Xiong frowned and expressed a different opinion. "There is a probability, but the Abyss Zerg are not mechanical and clumsy Zerg. On the contrary, they are also quite intelligent. They are likely not to be fooled by our sudden and unusual actions, and they will not necessarily gather all the Zerg Demons."

Liu Rulong replied in a deep voice. In fact, the General Staff had first proposed a similar plan, and had set a longer time period to design the action trajectory of a certain apostle, so that the "flaw" would look more natural and have a higher success rate.

However, there are still a lot of uncontrollable factors.

No one can guarantee that the sixth-level insect demons will come out in full force to launch the first attack like the one they launched to siege Su Han.

And when the battle is set near the mountain walls, their own troops may become hostages of the swarm.

Zhu Xiong frowned. Liu Rulong was right. They could not guarantee the probability of success.

"Are we trying to force them to attack? Where is the attack position and location?"

Su Han looked at Liu Rulong and asked.

"Besiege Wei to save Zhao. We have found their largest insect nest, located at the mouth of Guanhai City. A large number of mother tank insects and fifth-level insect beasts gather here."

Liu Rulong circled the location, which was right at the junction of the sea and the land. It should have been a shallow sea, but after nuclear bombing and the development of the insect swarm, the depth near the coast alone had reached a thousand meters.

"A large portion of the Zerg corpses recovered from the battlefield, the mutant monsters killed on land, the organic matter, and the monster corpses collected continuously from the ocean will be sent to the Zerg Nest to be decomposed and transformed into Zerg matter, and then bred into new Zerg. They also want to fight a protracted war."

The intelligence obtained was discovered by scouts who risked their lives to explore behind enemy lines infested with insects.

Many people died.

"The swarm of insects gathered in this insect nest is over 50 million, and I am sure there must be a bug demon nearby to guard it, or it can provide quick support. As long as this insect nest is destroyed, the swarm's offensive will be greatly slowed down. If we want to rebuild it, we will need more supplies, and they will need a long time to collect them."

At this point, everyone vaguely understood Liu Rulong's meaning, which was a combination of besieging Wei to save Zhao and luring the enemy into deep.

Using a sixth-level apostle to launch a counterattack is both a deliberate exposure of weakness and a way to force the opponent's insect demon to show up, but this plan involves considerable risks.

Lone Wolf Zhao Tiangao asked: "General, how are the troops deployed? If we counterattack with only one or two Level 6 Apostles, it will be too obvious. The Zerg knows how many Level 6 Apostles we have at least."

"One level six apostle will lead the rest of the counterattack force, which will consist of level five combat forces, apostle insect swarms, colonized celestial soldiers, and mechanical exoskeleton troops. As for the other apostles, they will launch small counterattacks in the remaining three cities at the same time to clear out the insect swarms."

Liu Rulong paused and said, "We must at least expose the whereabouts of three sixth-level apostles at the same time."

"I disagree!"

Zhu Xiong stood up suddenly, his face livid, and said, "General, this is too risky. Three sixth-level apostles are exposed at the same time, so Su Han can only mobilize three apostles, which is too few. The number of insect demons is said to be four, but what if there are more? And they have seventh-level lunar eclipse insects."

Liu Rulong was silent, then said: "This is the most likely plan. If it doesn't work, we can only adopt the previous plan. It will take about half a month to plan and design the trajectory of action. It would be best if it is in Linghai City."

"Just use this plan."

Su Han interrupted Liu Rulong, he looked up at everyone and said, "Half a month is too long, and it won't succeed. If the whereabouts of a single apostle are exposed, and the other apostles don't show up, they won't respond either."

There are not so many coincidences that can be exposed to the Abyss Zerg. They are not fools.

Moreover, such an insect nest must be destroyed, and Su Han also needs more monster materials for fusion.

"Although we need to expose our whereabouts at the same time, the insect cracks can allow the apostles to move quickly. We just need to delay them for a while."

Su Han said slowly: "Destroy the insect nest and kill as many insect demons as possible. Only in this way can we push their offensive back into the sea."

Seeing Su Han say this, Lone Wolf and Zhu Xiong still felt that it was a bit risky. Su Han was their greatest hope, and it was neither reasonable nor logical for them to act like this.

But they also know that when comparing the two plans, only the first one is more feasible.

"But what shall we fight with?"

Gan Xinglei also spoke at this time. He was more objective and pointed out directly: "Even if we counterattack, we have a sixth-level apostle leading the team, but no matter it is the Colonial Sky General or the Mechanical Giant, we lack the suppressive fifth-level combat power. There are seven Moon Nests in total. Excluding the fifth-level insect beasts that died in the battle, there are only 14 fifth-level ones. We can't mobilize all of them. At least 7 must be left. Including the Black Gold Knights and some of the ancestral beasts, there are no more than 20 fifth-level combat forces. The number of insect swarms over there has reached tens of millions, plus their fifth-level insect beasts. I can't think of how to resist these attacks. Unless there are more sixth-level apostles."

Without the protection of mountain walls and the coverage of large numbers of missiles and artillery, fighting in the wilderness depends on the hard power of individuals.

The suppressive power of the fifth-level combat power is particularly important. Even as a spearhead, this number is not enough.

Because some of the fifth-level warriors must confront the fifth-level insect beasts, and the other part of the fifth-level warriors must suppress the insect swarms that far outnumber human troops, offsetting the loss of the mountain wall.

Everyone frowned. This was a big problem. No one could create fifth-level combat power out of thin air.

Even if the Moon Nest breeds a fifth-order insect beast, it still requires a lot of time and resources, which are precisely what are in short supply.

"One-eyed Knight and Three-eyed Bishop."

Kou Wenji suddenly spoke up, his voice was steady and firm: "I will also use the One-Eyed Knight Method. I am already at the upper fourth level. With my five apostles, I should be able to break through to the fifth level. Then I will be counted as a fighting force."

"Yes, there are many middle-level fourth-level generals in our army. Although they are slightly inferior, if they use strengthening potions and sea beast gene potions first and then break through, they should be almost the same. After the sacrifice of the apostles Fan Wentao and Wei Shouzhi, they made very fast progress on the battlefield and have already reached the upper level of the fourth level, close to the middle level."

The person who spoke was Zhou Xichao, and at this moment he also had a determined look in his eyes.

"you."

Liu Rulong wanted to speak out to stop them, but Bai Qilan spoke up at this time: "Do you really want to sacrifice the apostles? That's a different path."

"You have to survive first, then you have a chance. So many people from the military died in battle, why can't we take a risk?"

Kou Wenji's answer was firm and decisive. Bai Qilan pondered for a moment and said, "Why not try a new method first? At least after the promotion, it will still be in our own hands."

Everyone looked at Bai Qilan in surprise, only to find that she slowly said, "Several academicians have developed two similar methods and have been waiting for Su Han to make the final decision and mobilize the power of rules."
