Chapter 150 - Intrusion
The question of whether the bugs will cry should probably be answered by biologists, and it may be more practical. However, the thoughts that spread into the air clearly tell Tianxiang: locusts are fear, angry, and roaring. They are even organizing new attacks, preparing to break through the terrifying defense line arranged by humans with more intensive formations.
Tianxiang was not worried about this. In fact, he couldn't wait to see what tricks these human-faced bugs could do. After all, from the attack of the insect swarm to now, his side has gained an advantage. The various weapons arranged in the basin pose a huge threat to them. Especially the air bomb heads specially used to deal with low-altitude flying objects have received great results. Each shell that exploded in the air can take the lives of hundreds of insects. There are too many of them, and the distance is too crowded. For shells full of death, they are the best targets.
Liu Shunyun, the leader of the Black Cloud Women's Clan, was completely stunned by the scene in front of her. She never dreamed that this man who conquered her body in bed would have such terrifying strength. Those weapons, those unknown weapons made of metal, actually had such terrifying power. No wonder he could sweep the dark world and annex so many hunting tribes, no wonder his clan had a terrible population, no wonder he could blow up the human-faced locust nest with a smile when facing his warning. Such a man was simply a powerful existence like a god.
If Tianxiang could hear Liu Shunyun's inner cry, he would have no choice but to smile bitterly on the spot. In fact, the leisure that once existed on him had dissipated cleanly a few minutes ago. Because, although the locust swarm in front of him had been defeated, the remaining remaining insects could not pose any threat to the hunters at all. However, these annoying creatures seemed to kill more and more. I don't know where they flew from. And I wanted to retaliate wildly against the people occupying the basin. The warning sentry sent a telegram a few minutes ago: "There are a large number of reinforcements found in the outermost area of the remaining insect swarm. The specific number cannot be estimated. It is speculated that it has exceeded several times the previous annihilated locust swarm..."
"How many of these miscellaneous pieces are there?" This was the first thought that Tianxiang thought in his mind after receiving the report. He could not imagine that after so many human-faced locusts were killed, they could organize such a huge attacking force. Oh my God! What kind of creature is this? I'm afraid that even the overwhelming brown ant colony could not match their considerable number. Although the locusts flying from the outside were far from the basin, they were flying after all. Therefore, the distance and distance had almost no effect on them. In a few minutes, the distance would have been very close to them.
The "buzzing" sound from the sky sounded like a drum. The swarm of locusts that flocked together could no longer be described as dark clouds. In the words of a soldier, "It was simply a thick dark curtain surrounding all sides of the horizon." The sky was already gloomy. However, the hunters guarding the basin now could not see the little light shot from the sky. The dense locust swarm that covered the sky had occupied all the airspace around the basin. Only the narrow round sky above people's heads was left. It could still maintain its original appearance.
Fear, boundless fear, suddenly shrouded on everyone's head like a huge pot lid, making their hearts throbbed, shaking their confidence, and trembling... The soldiers of the Dragon Clan are strictly trained elite troops, and even fight for elites from the sea of corpses and blood. Even so, Tianxiang can feel their inner fear. After all, the opponent now is not humans, but terrifying locusts that specialize in feeding on people. And there are many
It was terrible, so many that people were lumped up. Even the soldiers were like this, let alone those Fangshi people who had just been recruiting for a short time. They probably had never even dreamed of seeing so many insects. Zhou Kuang, a man who was always strong and fearless, was standing next to Tianxiang. Although there was no inappropriateness from his expression, the twitching muscles on his face, the trembling body, and the continuous collision sounds of teeth from the closed road all showed his inner fear.
If your ears are good enough and you can calm down and listen carefully, you will definitely hear the crisp sound of hard objects colliding from the mouths of the people. They are violent, rapid, and have a considerable rhythm. They are the crisp sounds produced by the upper and lower teeth fighting and violently impacting them. They are also the instinctive actions made by humans involuntarily due to fear or cold.
Can you not be afraid? Those are thousands of locusts! They have occupied the entire sky and are ready to rush straight towards this poor narrow basin. It is like millions of micro-aircraft equipped with biting machines, whistling and diving from the air, trying to tear everyone's bodies, drink their blood, eat their flesh, and gnaw their bones...
"Order all artillerymen to prepare empty bomb heads and freely shoot."
ps: count the fourth line, "complete preparation" should be replaced by "prime preparation".
This is just a fool's opinion! "All anti-aircraft machine guns extending attacks, without my orders, are not allowed to stop."
"Everyone is careful and kill all the bugs. Don't be afraid, they are definitely not our opponents. If so, all the people in this world will have died long ago." Although such commands and urging sound a bit inconsistent, at any rate, it is definitely the best choice to stabilize morale at this time. After all, although there are many locusts, they cannot defeat the weapons in their hands. Moreover, the previous two encounters have long shown that the opponent is not a powerful creature. They will die and cannot withstand the attack of bullets. As long as they can hold their main position, they can only end up with the same fate. The 255mm cannons first showed their might, and the shells were out of the air one by one, and the shells were in the air.
Blasting. Although the sound of the explosion was instantly covered by the terrifying "buzzing" sound, they did cause huge losses to the locust swarm. After each explosion, the dense locust swarm became sparse. The broken limbs falling from mid-air would fall weakly on the ground with a large amount of ground blood sprinkled across the sky, becoming part of the soil structure. The barrel of the four-component anti-aircraft machine gun has been replaced twice. The continuous high-intensity shooting caused the heat of the barrel, which was damaged by friction, to rise sharply. Occasionally, some insect blood fell on it, and immediately turned into a hot white mist in the "hissing". If they continued to shoot at this speed, they might eventually turn into a pool of red molten iron.
There are too many, really too many. The attack of human-faced locusts does not count any losses. The death of companions cannot arouse their fear at all. They only know how to attack and attack madly. It seems that as long as they break through the defense line that cannot be seen in the naked eye, they can achieve the final victory. This is the case.
Tianxiang calculated that if the locust swarm could break through the ground blockade line composed of anti-aircraft machine guns and air bomb heads, then the air defense network composed of various weapons in the basin can still withstand the swarm for a while. But the premise is that the number of locusts that rushed like a defense line cannot be too many. After all, individual weapons cannot be compared with the former in terms of firing rate or power. Moreover, once this line of defense is broken, it will inevitably affect the guards of artillery and machine gun positions. At that time, those who laugh at the end will turn into human-faced locusts. At this moment, Tianxiang suddenly realized that his previous actions were a bit too arrogant? The action of blowing up the insect nest was probably too impulsive. If he knew in advance that the revenge of human-faced locusts would be so crazy, then he would definitely adopt another safer and safer way to deal with it...
However, now that the situation has developed to this point, it is useless to regret it no matter how hard it is. What's more, although my situation is very dangerous, it has not yet reached the point where I end up. After all, until now, the dense swarms of locusts have not broken through the defense circle. The empty bomb heads and bullets pouring like storms are like a solid wall, blocking them tightly outside. Even if there are occasionally a few locusts with people on the ground who are lucky enough to rush in, they will be beaten to pieces under the attack of bullets on the front.
However, this situation did not last long...
The standard ammunition configuration of 255mm self-propelled artillery is usually mainly ordinary grenades. The empty bomb heads used to deal with low-altitude flight targets only account for the ammunition stock. If Tianxiang had not called Liaodu urgently and asked them to transport a large number of ammunition over the night, all the troops would have announced that the ammunition was exhausted a few minutes ago.
The air transport power of the Liaodu is strong, and the amount of ammunition transported is also sufficient. However, in front of the overwhelming crowd of people and locusts, they were pitifully small. So much so that after just launching this round of attack, the commander of the artillery position sent an announcement anxiously: the stock of air bomb heads is not large, and it is only enough to support several launches. This is not good news for anyone.
The celestial phenomena did not tell others. They could only calmly order the other party to save ammunition and kill as many locusts as possible. He and I knew that at this time he had already realized the way out. This was a basin with only one exit. There were at least tens of thousands of people in this area. It was impossible to retreat them in a short period of time. The insects flew faster than people, and they could easily catch up with the escaped crowd and kill everyone unscrupulously. Moreover, the disorderly escape would definitely cause new panic among the crowd. At that time, if the entrance and exit of the basin was blocked, it would be an absolute tragedy. Therefore, the only way at present is to drag it down. Try to deal with the insect swarm and delay time.
Two days ago, Tianxiang had already ordered Liaodu to send a second batch of support troops to replace him and guard the newly built Fangshi City. According to the normal departure time of the troops, they may be on the way. As long as they can delay until they arrive, there is no need to be afraid of the attack of human-faced locusts. What's more, since the locust swarm just appeared, he had ordered Liaodu to send air troops to support him. Therefore, the consumption of ammunition is not a big problem. The key is how to block the attack of human-faced locusts before the support troops arrive? At this moment, Tianxiang couldn't help but remember that before leaving, Qin Guang told himself that he was studying an ancient mechanical weapon with great power - mobile armor. It is said that this weapon can rely on pure mechanical power to eliminate opponents even without any ammunition supplement. If he now has this kind of mobile armor on his hand, then...
After all, fantasy is fantasy and has no help to the actual situation. What the defensive forces can do now is to kill human-faced locusts as safe as possible. "Get the weapons, we are ready." Tianxiang gently took a modified k50p light machine gun from the guards beside him, pulled out the magazine and took a look, and then stuffed it one by one. He said to everyone without looking back: "Remember, we are humans, people who dominate the world. Don't forget this at any time." The stalemate continued, and in the face of the hunters' desperate counterattack, the locust swarm seemed to be getting more and more crazy. They didn't care about anything at all.
The casualties rushed forward. The fire net made the contact point between the locust swarm and it seemed like a rainstorm. A large number of insect corpses and wreckage poured down from the air. That scene was like a erecting an invisible wall in the air, and any insect that wanted to penetrate the wall had to pay the price of bleeding. This scene did not last long. After a few minutes, as the artillery position gradually became silent, more and more locusts were passing through the "wall". In the end, the locust swarm, which had been struggling for a long time, finally broke through this terrible line of death and plunged into the center of the basin. With deep hatred, they rushed towards the humans with horror faces.
"Shoot!" With a command, bright red flames burst out from the various fire points standing on the building. Tens of thousands of rifles fired into the air at the same time, and tens of thousands of bullets instantly penetrated the bodies of the locusts. These self-deceptive alien creatures were shot down from the air and smashed them hard on the cold ground. The sudden attack caused huge losses to the locust swarms that rushed into the defense circle. However, they seemed to be indifferent to this at all. Quantity was their advantage in survival and the only way they could defeat humans.
The hunters' counterattack firepower was still strong, and the locust swarm was still heavy. However, they had successfully achieved their first goal. Soon, a large number of insects flocked in, raised their sharp armor thighs in their chests, and called on the people directly below to criticize them. "Alternate shooting, do not stop the firepower in the air." Tianxiang issued an order loudly to the people around him, pulling out the empty magazine from the gun, then took out a full magazine from his waist and loaded it with force. Then he raised the muzzle and pointed it at the target in the air and poured it out again.
After all, rifles do not have uninterrupted continuous ammunition belts like machine guns. They have only a few dozen bullets of bullets, so they must have time to replace the magazine. Locusts with extremely fast dive speed will certainly not miss such an excellent opportunity. They are smart and often circling back and forth in the air. Once the opponent's ammunition is exhausted, they will rush down and grab the target with their powerful forelimbs. After they are brought into the air, they will bite the head of the prey with their armor on their mouth. Within a few minutes, more than a dozen people have been tragically attacked by the locusts. In desperation, Tianxiang shouted desperately and ordered his subordinates to win the four.
Zhou's tribe members who were exchanging magazines provided fire support. However, compared with the human-faced locusts that rushed over, such an attack was really a drop in the bucket. The locust swarm was retaliating. Without the threat of artillery fire, they were not afraid of bullet attacks from light weapons. Locusts often targeted a certain fire point and launched a group of attacks. No matter how strong the ground firepower was, they could only shoot down a few insects first. The locusts that followed would take the opportunity to rush forward and hug the people guarding the fortifications, and use their advantages in their bodies and organs to bite off their throats...
Tian Xiang saw with his own eyes that one of his guards was bitten to death by locusts in this way. The corpse lying across the cold soil was exactly the same as what he had seen in the dead in the Li family and the injured soldiers before. "Kill! Don't stop! Kill all these damn bugs!"
Not only Tianxiang's voice, but all the people and hunters in the entire basin share the same thoughts. Everyone is afraid of fear and death, but it is a fact that no one can accept that he is killed by inferior creatures at will. If you want to survive, you have to fight and fight, and you have to kill as many opponents as possible in the life-and-death war. I want to live, so you have to die.
