Chapter 186 Na’vi? Just Consumables! All-Out Assault!
"As for the Na'vi natives on the ground..."
Li Ang pondered for a moment, frowning slightly, as if thinking about something difficult.
In fact, before the Infinity Starship officially set off, Li Ang's attitude towards the Na'vi natives was not to spare them.
But as the situation changed, he suddenly realized that such an approach could not maximize the benefits for LA Company.

The indigenous Na'vi on Pandora are actually creatures that rely on "spiritual trees" to survive.
The spiritual tree brings them wisdom enlightenment, spiritual perception, and spiritual pleasure.
Their consciousness is being influenced, changed, and even reshaped by "Eva" through the spiritual tree every moment!
The Na'vi of each tribe, from birth, growth to death, cannot be separated from the spiritual tree throughout their lives and accept the control of "Eva's" consciousness.
To some extent, the Na'vi are just Eva's tools. Even Eva only regards the natives here as her "consumables".
As the controller of a giant enterprise, why can't Leon treat these Na'vi natives as resource consumables for his company?
As for consumables, it is reasonable for the Na'vi to be pulled into the matrix to continue to generate electricity or to be used as free labor to mine minerals.
If they are simply killed by killing and violence, it is a serious waste of resources and appears to be inefficient and stupid.
"Leave them here."
Leon said in a calm tone.
When Eva is controlled, it is equivalent to controlling all the creatures on this planet. At that time, the role of the Na'vi natives will be the same as that of the clones of LA Company.
If you want to mine, you can mine. If you want to generate electricity, you can generate electricity.
Of course, Leon himself prefers to maintain the ecological balance of Pandora, so that these Na'vi people can continue to worship the "spiritual tree" and dedicate their consciousness to Eva.
"Yes!"
Song Zhaomei nodded. After learning about Li Ang's series of plans, she certainly knew that doing so was in the best interests of LA Company.
If "Eva" is compared to a tree, then the Na'vi are nutrients. If there is no nutrients, then Eva's consciousness network will collapse.
The result of both sides being hurt is not good for anyone.
"It will be dawn soon, and the war on the ground should start soon."
Li Ang once again cast his eyes on the holographic screen in front of him. His thoughts have drifted to the post-war scenario as time passes.
……
……
As an alien planet that is highly similar to the earth, Pandora's rotation is about 26 hours, which is basically the same as a day on Earth.
And at this moment, with the natural light provided by the Alpha Centauri star, the sun-facing side of Pandora was lit up, and the rainforest on the ground was immediately bathed in the sunshine of a new day.
However, the new day is the day when the war is fully opened!
In a floating stone resource area with many strange mountains floating somewhere, a large-scale flying formation is rapidly passing by.
Among them, there are two aerial gunboats and transport planes, which are particularly eye-catching among the flying formations.
And this formation with hundreds of flying vehicles is an offensive combat mission initiated by the Arasaka array of the LA Alliance!
With the establishment of the LA Alliance and the construction of the Ideal City, the current cyber giants have basically become various departments of the LA Company.
For example, the Arasaka Company, the former overlord of the earth, has now become the Arasaka department of the LA Company, and this time, the combat plan of the Arasaka department is to bombard the floating stone area!
When the C-21 "Dragon" assault boat, which looks like a flying turtle in the air, the Valkyrie transport plane, and the AT-99 Scorpion armed helicopter formed a flying formation.
When crossing the top of the mountains in a mighty manner, the Na'vi people under the ground are also waiting for an opportunity to move.
Soon, the flight formation began to rapidly lower its altitude, preparing to land on the ground to carry out today's combat mission.
Finally, they were in an open area, wearing their respective power armors and standard firepower weapons.
The power armor of the members of this formation was the AMP mecha provided by LA Company. It looked a little funny from the outside, like a giant without a head.
But in fact, this power armor can better cope with various terrains than the AST power armor, so that the soldiers can complete their combat missions!
Soon, after the soldiers of the local troops were almost ready, the flight formation took off again and approached the area of the spirit tree in front.
But under the command of the commander, the speed of this flight formation was not fast. They slowly drove over the soldiers of the troops, providing them with firepower support at all times.
In the main command center of this formation, Goro Takemura's voice has already sounded:
"This is the Arasaka Division. Our mission today is very simple, that is to deliberately make some big noise to attract those bastards to fight us!"
Since the Arasaka Company was also incorporated into the LA Alliance, Goro Takemura, who had been hiding in the east of Chiba City, also got a position in the Arasaka Department with the rise of the LA Company.
Now he is a middle-level officer of the LA Alliance, responsible for some military operations of the Arasaka Department.
"Yes!"
The fully armed soldiers below responded one after another.
After a while, after seeing the floating stone resource area and the "spiritual tree" in his sight, Goro Takemura continued to issue orders on the communication equipment:
"Attention everyone!"
"The target has entered the visible area, and it is estimated to be three kilometers ahead. Please prepare for bombing and firepower strafing in each flight formation."
"..."
As Goro Takemura's voice fell, the fighter formations flying in the air immediately responded to him: "Received, the bombing device is ready."
After that, under the control of the pilots, Arasaka's fleet began to accelerate forward.
But at this moment, the reconnaissance aircraft at the front of the fleet suddenly sent a message report:
"Report to the commander!"
"A large number of Na'vi natives are suspected to have appeared on the ground. They have cavalry and have entered into a state of exchange of fire with our ground troops."
The observer in the reconnaissance aircraft reported to Goro Takemura while cutting the captured images into his visual screen in real time.
However, just as Takemura Goro looked at the holographic screen in front of him, the battlefield picture transmitted by the reconnaissance aircraft had a problem of intermittent signal.
The entire screen was like an old-fashioned TV, with a blurry "snow dot" picture.
"What's going on? Clear the video for me!"
Seeing this scene, Takemura Goro couldn't help but frowned, and immediately ordered the technicians beside him.
"Yes."
The technicians who received the instructions immediately repaired and restarted the operation, but their visible picture was still blurry.
"Report to the commander! There is serious magnetic field interference in our area, and the navigation and shooting systems of all flying units have failed."
Hearing such bad news, Takemura Goro subconsciously clenched his fists, and before he could continue to make the next decision and order.
Near the flying column where he was, a large number of Na'vi people riding on the spotted stream beast suddenly appeared.
The group of Na'vi people each held a longbow, and while making strange noises at the flying column of the Arasaka department, they drew their bows and arrows and shot at them.
'Oh no, we're ambushed! ’
Takemura Goro instantly realized the critical situation. While requesting fire support from nearby reinforcements, he issued orders to Arasaka’s fleet:
“All units fire freely!”
“Repeat again, fire freely, don’t worry about ammunition!”
Bang! !
As soon as Takemura Goro gave the order to fire, Arasaka’s fleet was attacked by the Na’vi people at varying degrees of intensity.
For a while, chaotic shouts came one after another.
“Enemy attack! Enemy attack!”
“Everyone fire! Kill these bitch-raised alien bastards!”
“…”
Accompanied by the calls and instructions of the commanders of various units, the Arasaka fleet was like a flamingo with its wings spread open, and the surging bullets and artillery were like feather blades, attacking the Na’vi flying cavalry.
Boom…!
A violent explosion suddenly sounded.
It turned out that a fearless Na’vi riding a spotted stream beast directly hit the engine of a fighter plane in a suicidal manner, causing the fighter plane to be destroyed and the people killed.
‘Damn it…! ’
Seeing more and more Na’vi people attacking the weakness of Arasaka fleet, Takemura Goro was so angry that he kept cursing.
He could see that the Na’vi people had been prepared for a long time, so they waited for Arasaka fleet to enter this strong magnetic field area before suddenly launching an attack.
At this moment, due to the chaos of the magnetic field, the fleet of Arasaka department had intermittent communication and the fire control system was lagging behind. They were under a strong attack from the enemy.
The fleet array of Arasaka either exploded or had engine failure, falling straight to the ground, and finally the machines and soldiers were engulfed by the surging flames.
In the rainforest battlefield on the ground, the soldiers of Arasaka department also faced the impact of Na’vi natives.
In a dense rain of gunfire, guns of various calibers played a symphony of death at this time.
Thanks to the help of the intelligent bullet navigation system of the Kangtao department, the Arasaka soldiers could easily kill a large number of Na’vi cavalry without much aiming.
This also makes their record much better than the aircraft group attacked in the sky.
The Na'vi cavalry charge was a live target delivered to the door under the powerful impact of LA's intelligent, kinetic, and technological weapons.
Ten steps away, the gun is fast.
Within ten steps, the gun is accurate and fast!
What's more, the weapons used by LA's ground forces are basically within a range of several hundred steps.
A wave of volleys swept over, and the Na'vi cavalry formation was like a fallen straw, and they were shot and fell to the ground in groups.
Some Na'vi who were shot and fell to the ground, but not completely dead, just wanted to struggle to get up, but were trampled into blue meat paste by the following cavalry.
However, there are always some unlucky Arasaka soldiers who will accidentally be "stabbed" by the Na'vi long arrows during the shooting process.
The strength of these natives is much higher than that of ordinary humans, so the Arasaka soldiers who were shot by them would basically be nailed to the trees or the ground with their arrows.
But even so, the situation on the ground battlefield was still firmly controlled by the soldiers of the Arasaka department.
Soon, the Na'vi cavalry regiment could not hold on, and they chose to retreat and temporarily avoid the sharp edge.
The battle in the sky also gradually turned from the passive attack of the Arasaka fleet at the beginning to a white-hot stage.
Under the powerful artillery bombardment, the Na'vi cavalry in the air gradually couldn't hold on.
The balance of victory in this local war seemed to be tilting towards the Arasaka department!
But just when the Arasaka fleet was about to reach the "Spirit Tree" target, thousands of wild spotted river beasts suddenly swept in from the mountains in all directions.
They flapped their wings and howled at the Arasaka fleet, as if they were showing off their power to the enemy.
At the same time, a large number of wild beasts suddenly emerged on the ground. The Na'vi cavalry regiment, which was on the verge of defeat just now, regrouped again and killed back at the Arasaka soldiers.
Seeing a large number of giant hammer-headed thunder beasts and huge and ferocious black panther beasts appearing on the ground battlefield, the Arasaka soldiers on the ground were instantly frightened.
They had never seen such a scene before!
At this moment, looking at the beasts that suddenly appeared in the sky and on the ground, Goro Takemura realized that the rumor "Eva" in the army was true!
There is really a planetary consciousness helping these natives to fight against their colonization.
"Report to the commander! The enemy has increased its strength, we need reinforcements! Need reinforcements!"
"Baga! There are too many beasts on the opposite side, we can't beat them at all!"
"Request support! Request support!"
"..."
The communication channel of the Arasaka department was full of panicked voices from various departments, and they were so anxious that they wanted to shout their throats out.
Seeing this extremely chaotic scene, Goro Takemura was so angry that his teeth were about to break. Now their communication device has a problem, and they can't call for reinforcements at all!
'Are we going to die on this alien planet...'
Goro Takemura suddenly felt desolate in his heart. If today is the day of his death, he hopes that he can be buried back in the soil of his hometown.
Fortunately, not long after, just as the massive beast reinforcements were about to overwhelm the troops of the Arasaka Division, the Banxi Beasts in the sky were suddenly shot down one by one by other sources of firepower.
The super-large-caliber artillery was like a dense rain of bullets, piercing through the bodies of one Banxi Beast after another, and for a while, "beast rain" fell from the sky!
"Boom...!!"
"Hiss boom!"
Then, in the smoke and fog that dissipated in the air battlefield, hundreds of Scorpion fighters and arrays of Skyhawk shuttles appeared.
The exterior of the cabins of these fleets were all engraved with exquisite and domineering legion emblems, which were composed of metal gloves, gears, and metal tubes!
They are reinforcements for the Iron Hands Legion!
"It's V... It's V, they are here."
As the famous Astartes Legion of the LA Alliance, no one would not know what the unique emblem of the Iron Hands warriors is.
Seeing that the troops coming to rescue them were actually the ace army of the alliance, Goro Takemura was relieved and a "stable" mentality came to his mind.
Immediately, the Arasaka fleet, which finally restored the communication signal, heard V's greeting:
[Old friend, I hope we come in time, don't die in this broken place. ]
Hearing that the person coming was the familiar voice of his friend V, Goro Takemura couldn't help laughing and said: "V, you are here at the right time!"
"Otherwise, I'm afraid that my old bones will only be eaten by the Pandora beast on the ground."
After learning that his old friend Goro Takemura was safe and sound, V breathed a sigh of relief. After a few simple greetings with Takemura, he directly stated his purpose.
[Listen Goro, I'm not here just to save your life. The task assigned to me by the boss is to occupy that spirit tree. ]
[Because after the analysis and calculation of the headquarters, the spirit tree area where you are is the most suitable place to access the matrix! 】
Spirit tree area... Matrix? What the hell is this!
Seeing Goro Takemura's confused expression, V, who was still patient, explained their specific actions to him in a few words.
Immediately, after learning about the decapitation plan, Goro Takemura felt his whole brain was down and stagnant.
"Eva... Matrix!"
No wonder these beasts suddenly appeared and stopped them from approaching the spirit tree area. It turned out that Pandora's god "Eva" had been controlling their consciousness.
If there was no matrix, I'm afraid they would be caught in an endless beast tide attack next. By then, the casualties of the human army would definitely be heavy!
[Goro, now I need your troops to cooperate with my people to quickly occupy the spirit tree area. ]
[Tell your people not to drop bombs on the spirit tree, so as not to destroy the connection between the spirit tree and Eva! 】
V told Goro Takemura in a serious and clear tone that if this mission was to be successfully completed, he would need the active cooperation of the Arasaka department.
"No problem! I will convey your order to each of my soldiers now."
After the words fell, Goro Takemura issued the order to the Arasaka soldiers on the ground and in the air through the communication device.
And with the help of the reinforcements, the Arasaka soldiers also slowly regained their confidence from the initial panic and killed the Na'vi.
"Bang...!"
"Boom--!!"
Endless 20mm machine guns, 40mm cannons, 105mm caliber howitzers, and even larger caliber heavy artillery, all smashed towards various parts of the battlefield.
Although there are indeed some giant beasts and beasts on Pandora whose shells are hard enough to resist bullets.
But no matter how hard or ferocious they are, they are carbon-based creatures after all.
If one missile or artillery can't kill them, then fire more!
If it were the super-large monsters in the Pacific Rim, perhaps the power of their fleet array would not be enough to break the opponent's defense.
But it is obviously more than enough to deal with these ordinary-level alien monsters on the ground.
Not long after, under the joint attack of the Arasaka Department and the Iron Hands Corps soldiers, the beast group that was about to rise was instantly beaten back.
Countless giant beasts were blown to pieces by artillery of various calibers!
