I Am The Swarm

For the Yuntu fleet’s commander, the 15 million ships of Group A were now his foundation. These forces had escaped danger, and he couldn’t afford to let them risk falling back into peril. No matter what, he had to preserve these troops.

Therefore, in his mind, Group B had already been abandoned. However, for various reasons, he couldn’t simply turn and leave.

Moreover, in just over ten days, reinforcements would arrive. By then, combining forces, they might have a chance to break through the Swarm’s encirclement.

But the condition was that the newcomers would have to take the lead.

Time passed slowly. On the third day, General Sario lost contact. In his final moments, he sent a heartfelt and intimate message to the commander and his eighteen generations of ancestors, but the commander didn’t seem pleased.

From then on, hundreds of distress signals from Group B2 arrived daily, but the Yuntu main fleet, under pressure from the Swarm, only moved further away from Group B2.

This continued for over ten days. During this time, the Yuntu main fleet avoided several opportunities for engagement with the Swarm. By now, they were hundreds of millions of kilometers away from their original position.

After more than ten days of fierce fighting, Group B2, despite their desperate resistance, had lost nearly 3 million ships, reducing their numbers to 5 million.

At the same time, their spare parts for worn-out equipment were nearly exhausted, and their unmanned fighter drones had long been depleted. Almost every ship was damaged, and they were nearing the point of running out of ammunition and supplies.
