Chapter 108 The problem of planning

"...That's about it." Renault briefly explained his plan, "Is there any problem?"

"I feel it's still a bit risky." Yang Yi expressed his worries, "If we can't get the troops together, our troops will easily suffer against the protoss."

"There is nothing we can do about it. The Protoss' quick reaction force is faster than we expected. This is the only way I can think of at the moment."

Renault's method is also very simple. It is a very simple method of focusing on one point and breaking through multiple points at the same time. Although the protoss soldiers are of high quality, their number is far less than that of humans. Yang Yi's troops are responsible for the main landing area.

Raynor's troops and Behemoth's insect swarm tried to break through in other directions on the planet, making Tal'darin unable to distinguish the direction of the main attack and unable to send troops to the main attack direction.

Since the speed of Tal'darin's quick reaction troops is much higher than that of ordinary humans, and they can use portals to jump back and forth between different bases, the landing sites chosen are all far away from the Tal'darin base, in the wilderness of Sil.

.In order to ensure that the landing units can quickly establish a defensive position that can withstand the Tal'darin troops, they deliberately selected some terrains suitable for blocking, including mountains and hills, as well as some rift valleys.

However, the problem with this is that in order to prevent the Protoss troops from being able to eliminate the soldiers in one location and then quickly arrive at another location to carry out encirclement and suppression, the distance between the various landing sites is relatively far and they cannot effectively support each other. As a result, the establishment of a landing zone

Until the next batch of reinforcements arrived, these landing troops were in a relatively isolated state. They could only rely on themselves.

He originally planned to let Hydra follow and land on the main attack point with the landing force, but Hydra's transformation progress is still slow, and this operation has no chance for her. Yang Yi can only hope that he and Renault's troops can compete with each other.

.

Schier's problem made him increasingly aware of the problem of the ground troops. Their main obstacle was that during the early landing, it was difficult to set up an effective defensive position to deal with the enemy's quick reaction forces before the enemy counterattack. Before, whether it was insects or

Neither the swarm nor the Tal'darin have effective enough quick reaction troops, but the battle at Sil really exposed this problem.

In fact, the main reason is that there are too few troops that can be delivered to the ground at one time. They can deliver at most one reinforced company of troops at a time, ranging from one hundred to three hundred people. If there are any more, there will be too many airdrop pods.

If the walk is too large, it is easy for the landing troops to find the command unit to rendezvous. On the other hand, the target is also too large, and the ground orbital defense force and anti-aircraft firepower are more likely to hit the airdrop troops, and the losses may be greater than before.

How to deploy the most combat-effective troops within an organization of one hundred to three hundred people is one of the main topics that the Imperial Marine Corps has been studying. There are portals in the Protoss, and the Nydus Worm in the Zerg can quickly move to different areas.

The foreign races that transport troops between them must be able to establish a sufficiently effective defensive position in a short period of time.

After establishing a solid position on the ground, it is time to organize the troops to move forward. The location where the Moebius Expedition was previously considered an ideal mining location, but the problem is that the place has been occupied by Tal'darin. They must

We need to clear the place, occupy the place, and then transport the Draken laser drill there and assemble it.

The problem came again. The components of the Draken laser drill were too large. Their existing transport aircraft could not transport them at all. They had to have Moebius's Titan-class immigrant ship land with the components, and then let the SCV unload the equipment on site.

Assemble. However, the length of a standard Titan-class immigrant ship is about five hundred meters, which is about the same as a standard Behemoth-class battlecruiser. This is not something that a simple temporary landing zone can accommodate.

Regarding this problem, the Moebius Foundation did not provide a good solution. The original Moebius expedition had to build a front-line starport to barely allow a hired Titan-class immigrant ship to land.

Unloading. But the expedition team did not face any threats at that time. Of course, they could build a frontline starport leisurely, but they had to build this thing under the threat of Tal'darin...

As for Moebius's star port, there is definitely no hope. The main buildings of the entire Moebius expedition base have been demolished by Tal'darin. They only chose it because it is indeed a good location for base construction.

It is very dangerous for a large ship like the Titan-class immigrant ship to land in a combat zone. Because of its large size, and the base itself is located on the front line, it is also very close to the Tal'darin base where the temple is located.

It is possible to encounter anti-aircraft fire from the Tal'darin base upon landing.

"Build a starport platform for large capital ships to take off and land under Tal'darin's nose..." The corner of his mouth kept twitching as he looked at the battle plan, "We are really capable of any misfortune."

"At least it's better than no solution at all. Tal'darin's death fleet is what we should be most worried about right now, Commander."

If there is a solution to the Drakken laser drill, Tal'darin's death fleet has always been a thorn in his heart, and there has never been a good solution.

Although the Death Fleet is always late, this does not mean that he can rest assured. God knows whether the Death Fleet will suddenly pop out in this mission and directly surround them from the outside and open fire on them.

The worry is always there, but he never has a good solution. Right now, the only one capable of fighting the Death Fleet is the combination of the Pride of Altaris and Behemoth. The Pride of Altaris has the most basic rail gun.

This is a basic function that was implemented after the ship's hull was repaired. This thing was originally used for orbital strikes, but other human ships can also carry out orbital strikes. There is absolutely no need for the Pride of Altaris to risk being discovered.

Do this.

But at the moment, the railgun of the Pride of Altaris is the only weapon capable of penetrating the Tal'darin mothership, and he can only rely on it. The function of Behemoth is to simply release the swarm of insects to delay time.

How long it drags on, until the Pride of Altaris beats the Death Fleet to retreat - but everyone knows that this is impossible.

"So we still have to evacuate first when the time comes? What if Drakken is only half unloaded?"

"Then we can only abandon the vehicle to save the commander, Commander."

"...It's really unlucky."
