I, Superman, the Supreme Commander

Chapter 303 Strategic Retreat Chaos Victory

Although the decapitation strategy is effective, it only temporarily relieves the pressure on the human defense line and allows it to survive for a longer period of time.

However, the enemy still has an overwhelming advantage in military strength, and the situation where the enemy is strong and we are weak has not been fundamentally reversed.

And because of the heavy losses, it is impossible for humans to continue to carry out large-scale decapitation operations.

Moreover, the effectiveness of decapitation operations will be significantly weakened once the enemy is prepared.

Next, the ground war returned to the stalemate stage of fighting a tough battle in Jiedaizhai.

After careful analysis, the staff department believed that after all the troops were wiped out, the hope of achieving final victory was less than 30%.

Whether to kill the last veterans of the Legion of Hope in order to defend an already shattered and uninhabited galaxy has become an urgent decision that commanders need to make.

Intelligence shows that the Chaos Legion has gained the upper hand in the space battlefield and is currently clearing out the other three fleets. It is likely that it will completely gain control of the air in a few days.

A new batch of greenskin and Zerg reinforcements has been assembled and is rushing from neighboring galaxies.

It is expected that hundreds of billions of reinforcements will be sent to the ground war in the coming days.

It is foreseeable that mankind will sink deeper and deeper into the huge quagmire of this war and will be completely swallowed up.

"Give up... We have already lost this war."

Beside the conference table, a dull sigh came from the heavy mecha.

The commanders looked at this golden-painted dreadnought mecha with complicated expressions. In the sarcophagus in front of the mecha, a hideous bald head stitched with steel could be vaguely seen.

The one who spoke was Kratos, the commander-in-chief of the Legion of Hope.

He was rescued from the battlefield by his Necron allies and, in a near-death state, underwent surgery by the Archmagos.

Because of the severity of the injuries, the backlash of the self-explosive psychic energy, and the influence of the evil god's curse, it is difficult to treat.

The great sage had no choice but to stuff Kratos into a specially made dreadnought mecha.

Kratos survived, but he could never escape the constraints of the steel coffin again. He became a super fearless mecha with psychic powers.

Kratos' words silenced everyone.

The commanders looked angry, unwilling, and resentful... but in the end no one spoke out in rebuttal, and all of them looked dejected.

Although they were reluctant to admit it, they did realize that it was a fact that humans could not defeat strong enemies.

Their homeland has been invaded and their home planet is about to be lost. Even if their entire army is annihilated, they will not be able to change this outcome.

It is about to become a reality.

Everyone present is Zhang Hong's clone, born special and not afraid of death.

It is inevitable to sigh over such an ending.

"Oh, it's so difficult."

"We had so many advantages, but we still lost in the end. I really can't accept that!"

"In the final analysis, our strength is too weak. We only have one galaxy..."

"Damn, if Zhang Hong had left us a few more super weapons before he ran away..."

The voices of complaints and dissatisfaction continued to ring out.

"Okay, stop talking nonsense."

Finally, Kratos shouted to stop everyone and said seriously: "At this point, we have two choices before us."

"First, continue to defend and continue to consume the enemy's manpower."

"The second option is to abandon the Hope Galaxy, rely on the remaining fleet and phase transmission technology, fight a guerrilla war with the enemy, accumulate strength and wait for the opportunity to launch a counterattack."

"The former can eliminate the enemy once and for all, but the cost is that we will most likely lose all our elite troops."

"Although the latter can preserve our strength, the war will become a protracted war. It may take more than ten years or even decades for us to gradually recover the lost territories."

"Decide, gentlemen."

The conference room fell into oppressive silence again.

After a long time, the great sage Clark was the first to express his opinion.

"Save your strength. Don't make unnecessary sacrifices. By the way, let me tell you one thing. We actually still have a trump card that we haven't used yet..."

After Clark revealed his trump card, everyone's eyes lit up.

Show an excited expression.

"We actually have such a good thing?"

"Great! Let's do him a big job before he runs away!"

After the meeting, all parties discovered that the fighting style of the human army had suddenly changed.

Suddenly it became fierce, and all kinds of artillery fire were poured out without regard for cost, as if it were a light stockpile, and the bombardment continued for several hours.

Along with this, the defense lines of various fortresses were actively retracted and detonated. All human ground forces moved underground and blew up the passages leading to the underground.

At the same time, the remaining human fleets in space regrouped, abandoned their positions, and broke out into deep space in the enemy's weak areas.

"My Lord, the Imperial Army is on the run."

The intelligence officer reported to Abaddon.

The Chaos Army's commander-in-chief frowned, read the intelligence carefully, and ordered: "Let Huron and his Red Corsairs intercept them."

"Other troops, attack with all your strength and occupy the ground battlefield as quickly as possible!"

Under Abaddon's orders, the Chaos Legion abandoned the crippled Greenskin and Zerg fleets in space, and all of its troops pressed forward, deploying all of its ground forces onto the surface of Melinoe.

With the addition of a large number of troops, the Chaos camp immediately gained control of the battlefield.

With the support of the precise orbital fire bombardment of the absolutely superior space fleet, the Chaos army swept through the other two forces and attacked the human fortress of Makaria.

The Chaos army encountered stubborn resistance from human forces in the narrow dungeons of the fortress, and the corpses almost blocked the underground passages.

"Lord Abaddon, we found some blueprints for humanity's new warships!"

"Sir, we have entered the imperial fortress and found a gene seed breeding room that is basically intact..."

As the battle line advanced, the Chaos forces took much spoils from the human strongholds.

New technology, advanced weaponry, and production blueprints coveted by Abaddon and the Dark Mechanicists.

But looking at these tempting spoils, Abaddon felt more and more uneasy. It was the sixth sense of a strong man warning him that there was some hidden danger.

"The fleet should keep its distance from the planet."

In view of the fact that the Legion of Hope was prone to self-destruction and had several experiences of actively detonating planets, Abaddon had the Chaos fleet keep a distance from the planets and be ready to transfer at any time.

After gaining the advantage, they took the initiative to withdraw the elite troops of the legion, and used the demon army that would not truly die as the main force to advance the ground war.

"Sir, the Zerg and Orc reinforcements have arrived. Commanders, please tell us how you should deal with them?"

"Send out high-speed warships to harass and slow down the enemy's advance. There is no need to fight to the death."

"understood."

The Black Legion dispatched a small fleet of flexible and high-speed warships to intercept and delay the enemy's reinforcements.

At the same time, after several days of fierce fighting, the ground forces' battle is nearing its end, and the last few human strongholds are about to be breached.

The Chaos Legion obtained a large amount of supplies from the fortress, including a large number of advanced equipment left behind by the Hope Legion, and even many ready-made arsenals and some blueprints of advanced equipment. It can be said that the harvest was fruitful.

But Abaddon was not very happy.

After breaking through the fortress, the Chaos Legion discovered that the main force of humanity had already been transferred through some kind of alien technology transmission device, leaving only a small number of suicide squads.

However, he did not complete all the tasks assigned to him by the four evil gods.

He was not able to capture the top brass of the Legion of Hope alive, nor did he find any information about "the man" that the Four Gods were interested in.

So Abaddon decided that after capturing the last few fortresses, he would no longer engage in a fight with the enemy, take away the spoils, and leave the battlefield.

Just leave the bugs and the greenskins to continue fighting to the death.
