The Plane War Begins from Wandering Earth

Chapter 120 119. The bottom line of the coalition government

On the ground battlefield of the South Asian continent, the Yindu branch could only rely on constantly consuming troops to delay the advancement of the deformed metal mechanical army.

Strategic nuclear weapons, which can "kill one thousand enemies and lose one thousand and two hundred of your own," can only be put on hold temporarily.

The battlefield fell into a strange balance for a moment.

The human side no longer uses strategic nuclear weapons to clear out the deformed metal mechanical army, and the Cybertron side no longer uses "seed bombs" to transform more deformed metal cannon fodder armies.

The Indu branch's front-line command center analyzed that this might be a way for Cybertron spacecraft to "control energy consumption."

It always maintains the existence of a transformable metal mechanical army, and as the battlefield situation changes, it drops "seed bombs" to transform more transformable metal mechanical cannon fodder depending on the situation.

Doing so will maximize the damage to the human population, and may be the most cost-effective "planetary civilization cleanup method" unique to Cybertron.

The ground battlefield has completely turned into a bloody meat grinder.

Every minute and every second, countless soldiers of the Indu Division fell under the "fearless charge" of the deformed metal mechanical army.

These mechanical life forms transformed from deformed metal have no souls of their own.

They are loyal to Quintasha, the "Lord of Life", and are ordered to slaughter all life that appears before them.

As "cannon fodder troops", no matter how many of them are sacrificed, they will not cause any substantial harm to Quintessa.

As long as there is sufficient energy, in theory, Quintessa can completely transform the Earth civilization dominated by carbon-based life into a silicon-based civilization.

It's just a matter of time.

On the third day of the ground fighting, the flames of war began to spread across the entire South Asian continent.

The Yindu branch, which claims to have a force of 10 million, is no longer able to block the army of deformed metal machines.

More and more mechanical life forms are heading towards other densely populated cities.

The number of civilian casualties began to rise rapidly at an exponential rate.

What made the Yindu branch command most desperate was that the deserters began to appear on the battlefield.

The first batch sent into the battlefield were the absolutely elite troops that the Yindu branch considered to be the strongest.

Not to mention their specific combat capabilities, but at least in terms of their fighting will and ability to withstand battlefield pressure, they can indeed reach the level of elite indigenous troops.

They were able to withstand the advance of the deformed metal mechanical army on the battlefield and even miraculously launched several battlefield counterattacks.

Considering that the troops had not received the [Blessing of Popular Election] and had only the physical fitness of ordinary people, this was already an extraordinary performance.

But as the war progressed to the second day, after Mumbai and Delhi were completely destroyed, these elite troops were exhausted in the continuous fighting.

Millions of reserve troops were rushed to the battlefield to fill the battle lines.

These Indian soldiers, who had only received military training and had never experienced any actual combat, faced their first actual combat in life against an army of deformed metal machines.

Not surprisingly, the entire Yindu branch's front line began to collapse and flee in large numbers.

After witnessing the horrors of the war on the front lines, the psychological pressure on most of the "front-line soldiers" has reached a critical point.

Wait until the transformed metal mechanical troops arrive at their defense line.

Their minds were in a state of extreme tension, and they immediately fired their heavy firepower weapons and ammunition like crazy.

Afterwards, they didn't even dare to observe the specific effects, and turned around and evacuated for their lives.

What's worse, some soldiers were so scared that they dropped their weapons and ran away while other soldiers were still fighting.

These armies of deformable metal machines, with their strong defense, amazing firepower, fearlessness of life and death, and lack of any personal emotions, put a psychological strain on ordinary soldiers that is almost comparable to the tanks that appeared on the "barbed wire trench" battlefields of World War I.

My ears were filled with the painful cries of my wounded comrades. I was on a nightmarish battlefield soaked in flesh and blood, facing mechanical enemies that were like humanoid tanks and could not be killed.

For these soldiers from the Yindu Division who had just completed "compulsory military training", their first actual combat was "hell mode".

It is understandable that there would be collapse and escape.

But the South Asia Theater Command could not tolerate such a thing happening.

"damn it!

I assured the Joint Forces Command that we could hold out for a week!
Only three days had passed and the rout had already begun.

How can I explain this to the coalition forces?

What will the coalition government think of us?"

The representative of the Yindu branch was furious and repeatedly denounced the incompetence of junior officers and mid-level commanders.

At the beginning of the Second Planar War, although the "Indu branch army was annihilated as a whole", the 500 Indu warriors fought until the last moment and never retreated, thus regaining some dignity.

At a time when the United Government is fully engaged in responding to the Cybertron invasion, if a large-scale desertion of soldiers occurs in the South Asian theater of operations, which is under the charge of the India-Body Division, it will be an absolute scandal that the United Government cannot tolerate.

The representatives of the Yindu branch can accept that the combat effectiveness of their troops is not as good as those of the top-ranked branches.

But he absolutely could not accept that his soldiers were a group of deserters and cowards.

The Chief of Staff of the Indian Military Intelligence, who was in charge of the report, had a bitter look on his face. He opened his mouth but ultimately said nothing.

He knew the details of his own army's military strength.

After the victory in the two plane wars, the military confidence of the Yindu branch, which also has the name of the United Government Army, has been unprecedentedly inflated. It is quite arrogant that its military strength ranks third after the eldest brother (CN) and the second brother (US).

The huge population base, the size of the regular army reaching more than 30 million, and the number of reserve forces are the greatest confidence of the Yindu Branch.

But as they actually participated in the plane war military operations, they discovered that the India Branch was too well protected by the United Government.

The actual combat effectiveness of the main force of the Yindu branch is not even as good as the elite troops of the indigenous peoples of the other dimension.

But these are still barely acceptable. Not as good as the best, but not the worst.

But "battlefield rout" is something the Yindu branch absolutely cannot tolerate.

Since the start of the Plane War, the military warfare level has always been the focus of the United Government.

It is understandable that combat capabilities and military strengths vary, and the coalition government does not care too much about it.

But a qualified soldier must stick to the battlefield, which is the most basic bottom line for the fighters of the United Nations government forces.

If a large-scale desertion of soldiers occurs in the war zone under the responsibility of the Yindu Branch, the Yindu Branch will no longer be trusted within the coalition government forces in the future and will never be able to make a comeback.

The enraged representative of the Yindu branch immediately issued an order to form a supervision team and announced that he would go to the front line to supervise the battle personally.

Even if all 30 million Indian troops are exhausted, they must hold out for the week they promised to the coalition government forces.

It has to be said that the front-line supervision operations conducted by the representatives of the Yindu Branch and many senior military and political officials did have an effect.

The presence of senior military and political officials in the front-line troops greatly boosted the morale of the frontline combat soldiers.

With the appearance of the supervision team, the increasingly intense trend of the front line's collapse was finally stopped.

The number of casualties continued to rise, but thanks to the "human lives", the advancement of the Transformed Metal Mechanical Legion gradually slowed down.

The coalition government has seen the struggle of the Yindu branch.

After the war zone in North America was stabilized, the United Government immediately sent the freed-up troops to the South Asian continent for support.

The first to arrive were the air forces.

There were a vast array of drones of all sizes, large and medium, and there were more than 23,000 Predator drones alone.

There are nearly a thousand fighter jets of various types, including those of the joint government forces and indigenous forces, conducting combat readiness patrols on the periphery, ready to respond to emergencies at any time.

They obscured the airspace around the Cybertron ship in the South Asian theater of operations.

It's like a "drone cage" was put on this Cybertron spacecraft.

It was as if the representatives of the Yindu division were eager to prove the Yindu division to the coalition government.

The coalition government forces never thought of abandoning the Yindu division.

Almost all the air forces that could be deployed were sent to the South Asian theater.

This Cybertron spacecraft in the South Asian war zone has been surrounded by "overwhelming" human aircraft.

Missiles and energy cannons were launched, and every time a drone was shot down, more drones would fill the gap in the encirclement.

Any Cybertron military aircraft inside the spacecraft that dares to leave the spacecraft's close-range protective firepower range will immediately be subjected to suicide attacks by dozens or hundreds of times more drones.

No matter how strong the Cybertronians' defense is, they will die on the spot.

These are all secondary military forces that assist in combat.

The special forces led by Liu Peiqiang and Alice are the ones that the United Government forces have high hopes for.

Only by eliminating the Cybertron spacecraft can the enemy invasion be truly ended.

This has become a consensus within the coalition government.

It is nothing but a pipe dream to rely on ordinary military weapons and military force to destroy the Cybertron spacecraft with "energy shield".

Therefore, the hope of the joint government forces still lies in the special operations of super soldiers like Liu Peiqiang.

After the United Government's MARS military laboratory in Kyrgyzstan in Central Asia worked overtime to produce a new batch of nanoworm warheads, they were immediately escorted by Liu Peiqiang to the South Asian war zone.

Based on the lessons learned from previous combat operations, a new batch of nanoworm warheads have been improved in design.

Although the original nanoworm warhead was extremely powerful, its launch tolerance was too low. Once a mistake occurred, this extremely complicated strategic weapon would be wasted.

Therefore, military scientific researchers divided the "nanoworm ammunition" of an original nanoworm missile into twenty equal "medium warheads".

If we distinguish them by destructive power.

The "large warhead" is capable of destroying a city with a population of five million.

The "Medium Warhead" has the destructive power to destroy at least one to three Cybertronian ships.

Of course, the specific destructive power is also affected by the material of the target and various environmental factors.

According to the joint government’s plan, after the production capacity of nanoworm strategic weapons is greatly increased in the future, “small warheads” will also appear to be equipped to grassroots troops.

Liu Peiqiang carried three "medium warheads" and prepared to replicate his achievements in the North American theater under the cover of the United Government's air force.
