chapter 0454 part 3
Strictly speaking, these small fighter jets, no longer than three meters, were more like iron pipes with propellers welded onto the outside, or even simplified artificial rockets – elongated gas cans filled with high-explosive TNT explosives, boosted by gunpowder.
Boosted by the flames at their tails, these fighter jets and rockets, each costing no more than ten thousand yuan, soared into the sky like a swarm of killer bees delivering death, sending fiery kisses towards the space fighters.
The sole purpose of these extremely simple drone fighters and rockets was to rush into the midst of the space fighters and detonate the bombs they carried.
Originally, with the speed of the space fighters, these crude drones couldn't catch up to them at all. But the Earth Alliance launched too many of these simple rockets and drones at once. Tens of millions of simple drones and rockets were launched simultaneously, performing self-destruct.
Violent explosions occurred. These extremely simple weapons possessed astonishing force, directly forming clusters of explosion shockwaves hundreds of kilometers wide in the air.
After the explosion shockwaves disappeared, at least ten thousand space fighter warships vanished without a trace.
"These simple weapons actually took down advanced space fighters!" On Yggdrasil, Frank watched, dumbfounded.
Kane was thoughtful. "It's somewhat like the methods used in the Middle East!"
"Don't underestimate these crude methods. Quantitative change leads to qualitative change. Judging by the force of these improvised rocket explosions, they must be filled with high-grade TNT. The combined force of tens of millions of improvised rockets is considerable. However, these improvised rockets have no accuracy and insufficient speed. They can only hit fixed targets and prey that comes right to them!"
The two of them commented with relish. As for the others, the Old Demon Dragon and Beelzebub were not very interested in this minor skirmish and focused on the sliced meat in the hot pot.
Deadpool Wade threw the task of adding meat to Johnny. He himself pulled out a fishing rod from who knows where and sat on the edge of a Yggdrasil leaf, pretending to fish.
On the bamboo fishing rod, which shimmered with a rich purple luster, one could faintly see exquisite bird-seal patterns carved into it. Even the fishing line was almost completely stealth, hanging down thousands of meters! "Hmm? This looks like the Boss's fishing rod?"
Kane inadvertently looked back, saw the fishing rod in Wade Wilson's hand, and was immediately startled.
Thanos's Joint Fleet's aerial attack was shattered by a wave of cheap wild punches from the Earth Alliance.
The cutting edge of the Zerg army's attack through the Frontal Passage leading to Titan was also suppressed.
In front of the Yggdrasil branches extending to Titan, over three thousand tanks, five thousand battle vehicles, and nearly two hundred thousand Fully Armed Soldier firmly blocked these insects outside of Titan.
"Hissing——"
The piercing hissing of the insects constantly echoed on the branches of the World. Countless insects, comparable in size to cars, launched an attack like a tide towards the human positions.
What greeted these insects was round after round of large-caliber heavy artillery bombing.
Russian-made 240mm Tulip Heavy Mortars, Katyusha Rocket Launchers, the Federation's Hellfire Rocket Launchers, **'s PLZ-05 Self-Propelled Howitzers of dozens of calibers – the roar of tens of thousands of heavy artillery pieces constantly echoed within Yggdrasil——**
The roaring sound of explosions continued for three hours. Within these three hours, the tide of insects was forcefully intercepted at the first Defense Line.
Only then did the Regent of the Faceless Civilization, watching this scene, realize that it wasn't that the Earthlings were too weak to resist their bio-war beasts, but rather that these Earthlings had set a death trap for them! "If Thanos hadn't forbidden the use of high-power planet-destroying weapons, how could we have failed?!"
The Faceless Ones Regent, beneath that bald face, let out an unwilling roar from his mouthparts filled with sharp teeth. He knew that with Thanos, failure was failure. He couldn't imagine what fate awaited his civilization.
How could the Faceless Ones know that this planet, serving as the Battlefield, was precisely Thanos's Hometown? Although he had personally brought destruction to his Homeworld, no one knew if seeing this planet evoked any memories for him.
Just as no one knew if Master Ancient One had chosen this planet as the Battlefield for this very reason.
The tide of insects swarmed down Yggdrasil, enduring the dense artillery fire bombing. But the moment their sharp insect legs touched the Ground, countless high-explosive landmines exploded beneath their feet.
As the remaining insects pushed forward, enduring the heavy artillery bombing and the landmine bombing underfoot, three thousand various heavy tanks formed a Defensive Zone ten kilometers wide and twenty kilometers deep in front. Within this Defensive Zone, the density of tanks reached its limit!
In the gaps between these tanks, over five thousand battle vehicles were positioned. These armored battle vehicles lined up, their heavy machine gun firepower ready to face the insects!
Before the insects could get close, the tanks' gun ports, accompanied by the battle vehicles' machine gun spray fire, instantly dismembered the insects into fragments.
And behind these battle vehicles were two hundred thousand Earth Alliance Warrior, using a stretch of rolling hills as a barrier to build positions and Bunkers! The front lines were filled with firearms that could be called anti-human. Hive-like Metal Storm weapon launchers were densely spread throughout the positions.
Vulcan Cannons, originally intended for Humvees and battle vehicles, could be seen almost every few dozen meters here. Many Human Soldiers were even holding new energy weapons.
In the Second Battlefield, managed by **, giant four-legged support robots codenamed "Chaos" had firepower output no less than Metal Storm. Hundreds of "Chaos" units, combined with two thousand two-legged support robots codenamed "Bai Qi" that fired Fuel-Air Explosive (FAE) bombs, even managed to control the Yggdrasil branch Passage, preventing the insects from advancing even a single step.
However, as time passed, the insects' long-range firepower arrived, and the scale of war, which humanity had originally dominated, slowly began to tip towards the insects.
(Freezing to death, minus ten-something degrees. If it weren't this cold, I'd have written 6000 words. Can't hold on anymore.)
