The Plane War Begins from Wandering Earth

Chapter 297 296. Attack and Save
In line with the principle of "better to kill by mistake than to let go", the Earth Federation Government carried out a swift and Gordian knot against the "remnants of the Arachne Zerg" that appeared on the Martian colony.

It has to be said that such a decisive response was beyond the expectations of the coalition government.

As originally expected, the Earth Federation government would be timid in the Mars colony incident due to concerns about the impact on public opinion, but this did not happen.

But this is also somewhat related to the fact that Marshal Meru did not treat the people of the Martian colony as human beings.

In the eyes of these professional politicians who pursue sophisticated egoism, more than 95% of ordinary people in the Martian colony who have no voting rights or electoral rights are completely worthless.

So when the United Government urgently notified Gust, asking him to make some "big noise" in the core area of ​​the federal government as soon as possible in order to support the United Government's major battle in the "Twelve Energy Star Systems".

Gust knew that a colony like Mars would not be a big deal for the Earth's federal government.

An attack plan that even the staff of the United Government's Central Intelligence Agency exclaimed was crazy was quickly submitted to the United Government Congress.

[Action plan to launch a biological attack on 35 urban clusters with a population of tens of millions (citizens) in the core area of ​​the Earth Federal Government]

When this action plan document appeared at the conference resolution site, the scene was dead silent.

The military operations of the coalition government forces generally will not be proactively carried out towards the enemy's demilitarized areas.

At least that has been the case in recent decades.

First, it is unnecessary, and second, the negative public opinion has a great impact.

If the coalition government could force the local forces to surrender by quickly eliminating the enemy's military forces while maintaining a good reputation for not taking action against non-military targets, it would naturally be willing to do so.

But the situation in the Starship Troopers plane is a bit tricky right now.

The Earth Federation Government's desperate "all-out military attack" has resulted in all the United Government forces in the twelve energy star systems, both aerospace and ground forces, being surrounded and encircled.

Before the support of the coalition government forces arrives, the coalition government must find ways to rescue the front-line troops.

All possible methods of action have the potential to be implemented.

This naturally includes attacks on the core areas of the federation.

The tactic of "encircling Wei to save Zhao" is not outdated in the interstellar era.

“According to statistics from our Central Intelligence Agency, the Gust team screened these 35 federal core areas.

Among them, federal citizens account for an average of 98%, making them the most important base of the Earth Federal Government.

It can also be said that the people living in these areas are the most loyal citizens of the federal government."

“According to the information currently available, the people in the above-mentioned areas are extremely xenophobic.

Have strong hostility towards all non-federal regimes.

They even discriminate against the Martian colonies that are also in the core area, not to mention those local colonized galaxies."

“We have reason to believe that even if the coalition government conquers this plane.

These loyal citizens of the Earth Federation Government will also pose a great obstacle to the United Government's conquest and rule.

The coalition government will then have to consider non-soft means, including military means, to deal with the situation..."

As if to convince the hesitant delegates at the conference, various investigation reports on the action areas were continuously presented at the conference.

However, in fact, at the coalition government conference, there were only a few elected representatives who were chosen to make up the numbers, except for a few who showed sympathy.

The representatives of several regions who actually had the power to make decisions had already made a unanimous decision in their hearts just by looking at each other.

The reason why the United Government has been able to grow into today's powerful government spanning several dimensions, with tens of billions of citizens and abundant military force is certainly not due to so-called kindness and goodness.

Plane wars are often life-and-death struggles between two planes.

On the premise that victory is imminent and that we have overwhelming military force.

The coalition government does not mind showing a little softness towards its enemies to demonstrate its benevolence.

But when any situation arises that could threaten the coalition government's victory in the plane war.

The coalition government will ensure victory in the plane war at all costs.

There is no room for negotiation on this point.

This is also the tacit consensus of several regions with decision-making power, including CN, RU, USA, etc.

In order to win the plane war, those wandering people who are loyal to the united government are rushing to the battlefield one after another.

In comparison, are the "stubborn" indigenous people of the other dimension who are loyal to the hostile regime worthy of the kindness and goodwill of the United Government?
There is no doubt that the action plan submitted by Gust's team was passed with an absolute majority in the first round of voting.

Gust, who was far away in the core area of ​​the Earth Federation, seemed to have guessed the result long ago.

After receiving the "permission to act" order from the Central Intelligence Agency, the Gust team, which had been preparing for a long time, immediately began the action.

Compared with the "Arachi Zerg Invasion" on the Martian colony, this operation is larger in scale, more effective, and the resources invested in the operation are also unusually large.

Planet Saturn 1B, Earth's federal territory.

Dozens of transport ships marking the Holmes galaxy are slowly docking.

The efficient unmanned starport in the core area gave the Gust team a lot of room for operation.

The entire process of these listed transport ships, from port arrival, quarantine to final docking at the port, is handled by the starport's electronic operating system.

Before this, MOSS, an artificial intelligence that had never exposed its existence in advance, intervened for the first time in the network and electronic equipment systems in the core area of ​​the federal government.

The Earth Federation government would never have imagined that a powerful artificial intelligence that could tamper with the highest authority of the core area's network security subsystem would target not the federal government's strictly guarded military technology department, nor the financial transaction system, but the quarantine and customs clearance system of a civilian port in a mere municipality.

In this way, without alerting any official department of the federal government, the Gust team successfully launched dozens of carriers and parasites loaded with various alien and mutant viruses onto Titan 1B, a planet directly under the jurisdiction of the federal government.

After being improved by the team of Dr. Ashford, a leader in the United Government's biological community, the alien mutants used as carriers of biological and chemical attacks have extremely strong infectiousness and vitality.

In terms of combat effectiveness, the biomass shell on the body of an alien juvenile that has just hatched for two hours can withstand small and medium-caliber rifle and pistol bullets.

In the core area of ​​the federal government, the weapons that the garrison forces of each planet are normally equipped with are various small and medium-power chemical kinetic firearms, as well as some laser weapons that have extremely poor effects on biomass shells.

By the time the garrison on Titan 1B received the distress alert from the surface, hundreds of thousands of alien deformed creatures had already begun wreaking havoc in the major settlements on the planet.

This alien deformed form, which is somewhat similar to the "Arachi Zerg", was naturally suspected to be an attack launched by the "remnants of the Arachi Zerg forces".

Elected representatives from the federal districts on the surface angrily denounced the planetary garrison for its poor performance.

They couldn't even do something as simple as warning of an attack by the "Arachi Zerg".

The head of the Titan 1B garrison was also very angry. God had mercy on him. The planetary space monitoring system did not detect any attacks from space at all. Just as both sides were blaming each other, accusing the other of being the biggest target of accountability in this attack.

The first batch of fully armed garrison troops who went to suppress the rebellion were quickly defeated.

The alien deformed creatures hiding in residential corridors, sewer systems, and even in various mobile vehicles possess extremely high "hunting IQ".

They often use terrain and cover to attack their prey.

In most cases, they will join forces with their companions around them to launch a "joint hunt" against prey that is in a superior number.

The garrison troops, equipped with only a small number of individual heavy weapons, were completely powerless against the alien army that launched sudden attacks on them from all kinds of unexpected directions.

After a brief exchange of fire, these alien creatures, which loved to tear apart the bodies of their prey and enjoy the pleasure of blood spurting out, frightened the garrison troops that came to encircle and suppress them.

You know, in the core area of ​​the federal government, the real high-quality soldiers have long been selected into the starship forces and mobile infantry regiments.

Any soldier with a bit of aspirations would try to transfer away from the planetary garrison forces, which are known for "eating and waiting to die" and have no hope for a future.

Therefore, it is totally unrealistic to expect these garrison troops to have strong fighting will and excellent combat qualities.

When the alien army attacking from all directions broke through the sparse firepower network of the garrison and engaged in close combat.

Before the first row of garrison troops were completely slaughtered, the troops in the rear collapsed completely.

How could these garrison troops have ever imagined that one day they would have to fight those horrible "bugs"?

Just reading the reports on the expeditionary force in the news was enough to make them shudder.

So it makes sense that this collapse happened.

But they didn't know that showing their backs to these alien creatures in battle was more dangerous than a head-on confrontation.

The troops sent to deal with the problem suffered a crushing defeat, and the head of the planet's garrison immediately realized the seriousness of the problem.

Without any hesitation, he immediately sent a call for help to the Earth Federation Government.

However, at this moment, the emergency response center in the core area of ​​the earth is about to explode.

Saturn 1B, Saturn 6A, Jupiter 1A, Mercury colony, the solar system heliocentric region, the artificial planet for the transfer of materials in the astral core area...

Even more than 30 important colonies, including the lunar base, and the core area directly under the jurisdiction of the government, were almost simultaneously hit by various biological and chemical terrorist attacks of varying degrees.

If it were just one or two attacks, the federal government might still suspect the "remnants of the Arachne Zerg."

But the more than thirty terrorist attacks launched simultaneously almost made it clear to the federal government that this was a targeted move.

After Marshal Meru became furious, he immediately suspected that the mastermind behind this was the Thraide Galaxy.

But there is no time to identify who launched the attack.

The most important thing is how to properly handle and resolve the impact of these terrorist attacks.

Different from the situation on the Martian colonies.

The areas attacked this time all belong to the core areas ruled by the Earth Federation Government.

More importantly, most of the disaster-stricken areas are located in areas where federal citizens live.

There is no way the Federal Parliament would allow the federal government's military to adopt an "extermination-style" military approach against these areas with large numbers of citizens.

The overwhelmed Interstellar Marshal Meru could only try his best to coordinate the garrison troops of various planets in the core area to land and assist in handling the situation.

Some federal congressmen proposed to recall some of the federal government troops fighting on the front lines of the "Twelve Energy Galaxies" and transfer these truly elite forces of the federal government back to "put out fires."

But this proposal was immediately rejected by Marshal Meru and the top leaders of the Psychic Strategic Force.

The great battle of the "Twelve Energy Star Systems" will determine the future outcome of this civil war that is sweeping the entire federal government.

Unless it is absolutely necessary, Marshal Meru would never risk failure in the civil war by mobilizing troops.

At this time, she could only withstand the impeachment of the parliament and the doubts of the people, and continue to push forward the general battle.

"Boss, what should we do?
That old woman actually insisted on not sending troops back from the front line to defend..."

It seems that this massive biological and chemical attack did not shake the federal government's military deployment.

Many people within Gust's team began to get anxious.

The more the federal government refuses to withdraw its troops, the greater the pressure on friendly forces on the front lines.

Gust frowned, obviously he had underestimated the ruthlessness of Marshal Meru.

A politician who can be promoted to the position of interstellar marshal is obviously aware of the importance of issues.

No matter how big the biological and chemical terrorist attack in the core area is, it cannot temporarily shake the position of the interstellar marshal who has "wartime command authority".

But if the "Twelve Energy Star Systems" battle fails, this civil war sweeping the Federation will surely end in failure.

At that time, she, as the interstellar marshal, will also face reckoning.

Marshal Meru can naturally tell what is more important.

Even though Gust often cursed the United Government, it did not prevent him from wanting the United Government forces to win the battle for the "Twelve Energy Star Systems" more than anyone else.

Gust did not choose to give up.

There is another area that Marshal Meru absolutely cannot ignore, and that is the mother planet Earth.

Whether in terms of political status or historical symbolism, Mother Planet Earth is unique to the federal government.

Marshal Meru can ignore the Martian colony and Saturn's 1B, but she will never allow a large-scale terrorist attack to break out on Earth.

Gust has made a final plan of action.

Compared to other colonized planets and core areas, the defense on the Earth mother planet is absolutely abnormally high.

After the alert level was raised across the board, it was no longer possible to carry out operations as quietly as before.

This also means that Gust's team must take greater risks in their actions targeting the mother planet Earth.

"I never thought that an old guy like me who came from the anti-government army would one day fight for the coalition government."
