One Hundred and Forty Eighth Pre-War Meeting (3)

Long Jianguo rubbed his forehead with a headache, and turned his eyes over and over again on the map. Those dense contour lines made him dizzy like an endless nightmare, and he wanted to tear the map apart.

"Battalion Commander, I have an idea." Lu Qingzhi looked at Long Jianguo eagerly and said.

Long Jianguo stared: "What are you looking at me for, just speak up if you have something to say!"

"Yes!" Lu Qingzhi typed out the manuscript, "Everyone knows that I am an engineer. When clearing mines, we must first blow up the vegetation on the minefields. Can we do the same?"

Long Jianguo's face softened a little, he nodded and said, "It's a solution, but ant nests are not minefields, and the cost of blowing up all the hills is too high... What about the others, do you have any ideas?"

Gao Bo, the second company commander, said: "Commander Lu reminded me that the Mi Army used Agent Orange in the Vietnam War. Can we find a safe defoliant to directly clear the vegetation on the mountain, and find a way to clean up the ant nests? If you don't have any, just let it go...the chemical agent must be much cheaper than the cloud bomb." After speaking, he glanced at Lu Qingzhi, and Lu Qingzhi smiled back.

The relationship between the two of them is usually very good, and at this time, the support obviously meant to help Lu Qing.

"Look in the newspaper, if there is a safe defoliant, it's good to use." Long Jianguo said.

Agent Orange has been poisonous for thousands of years, so it must not be used indiscriminately.

"If you want me to say that you don't need to be so troublesome." Xu Ruolin, the commander of the third company, also started talking, "Just open a barrier and set fire to his mother."

"It's also a way." Long Jianguo affirmed the speeches of several company commanders, and turned his eyes to Ye Han, "Any ideas? Tell me."

Ye Han thought for a while and said, "Did we miss it?"

"Where is the difference?" Long Jianguo's eyes showed hope.

This kid had already given him a lot of surprises, and he couldn't help but pray secretly, hoping that Ye Han could still bring surprises this time.

Ye Han said slowly: "The territory of a group of ants is about ten to fifteen square kilometers. You can see that there are indeed a lot of hills on the picture, but let alone a highland, even several hills added together, it is not enough Not that big of an area!"

One word awakened the dreamer, and Long Jianguo slapped his forehead: "It makes sense! Keep going!"

Ye Han glanced at everyone: "So, we don't care whether there are ant nests on the mountain, or whether the armored vehicle can climb the slope, just throw pheromone hooks to lure the ants, and let the ants bring the incendiary bombs back to the nest In addition, I suggest that we change the game."

"Don't hold back, just speak up!" Long Jianguo glared at him.

Ye Han chuckled: "We used to make a fuss about dead ants. The vegetation is lush in the mountains. It's not easy to find a few ants. It's too wasteful to kill them. They just turned numb and nailed the incendiary bombs to the ants..."

Long Jianguo stood up abruptly, and said loudly: "Good idea, let's do it like this, go back and prepare immediately, formal action tomorrow, the meeting is over!"

"Yes!" Several people stood up at the same time.

"Ye Han!"

"arrive!"

"In a while, you take a car around the neighborhood to feel the situation here.

"Yes!" Ye Han left the headquarters, immediately found veterans and Huya, and drove the wheeled armored vehicle away from the platform.

The armored vehicle drove tens of meters along the railway, and the wheels turned into a small village.

The area of ​​the village is not large, with a total of only a hundred households. Although there are many houses, most of them are dilapidated, and some even collapsed halfway. It seems that no one has lived in it for a long time. And shabby.

The small village is full of dilapidated atmosphere, only the three-storey small building of the village committee has some faded brilliance.

The veteran couldn't help sighing: "This place is too broken!"

Ye Han said softly: "This place used to be a forest farm, and the railway that went into the mountain was a dedicated transportation line built for transporting timber.

It flourished for decades in the last century. In recent years, the closure of mountains for afforestation has been advocated. If trees are not allowed to be cut down, the forest farm will naturally fail. "

The veteran was extremely surprised: "Ye Pai, how do you know so much?"

Ye Han laughed and said, "My family lives in the forest area."

The veteran suddenly said, "No wonder."

"Actually, it's not just here. Didn't they always talk about urbanization in the past few years? Residents in villages and towns are migrating to cities. Villages close to main roads and railways can be better. In remote places, only old people who are reluctant to leave stay behind. Most of the young people have left, and within a few years, those villages and towns will completely become dead villages and towns without people."

"Isn't it good to go to the city?" Huya asked strangely.

"I didn't say it was bad!" Ye Han chuckled, "But this kind of villages and towns that lack strong labor are also the least resistant villages and towns in the face of disasters."

The veteran and Huya were silent at the same time, and it took a long time for Huya to ask softly: "Then the people in this village have evacuated, or have they been caught by the ants?"

Ye Han shook his head: "It's hard to say. You can't see dead people outside. At least you can be sure that there are no giant mosquitoes and praying mantises in this place. If you want to find out, you have to go door-to-door."

People attacked by giant mosquitoes will leave shriveled corpses, and people swallowed by giant praying mantises will leave a pile of broken bones. Only giant ants will bring their prey back to their nests.

The armored vehicle drove to the east of the village, and a winding concrete road led to the mountain from here. The field beside the road was full of green plants, tall trees, dense shrubs, and low grass, covering every inch of the land in all directions and three-dimensionally. , leaves of various shapes and heights fill every inch of space, layer upon layer block the line of sight, and the naked eye distance is less than 20 meters.

Even if the viewing distance is less than 20 meters, half of it is blurred under the cover of vegetation, and the distance that can really be seen clearly is less than ten meters!

Ye Han secretly tightened his brows. It's just that the vegetation around the mountains is already so exaggerated, and the situation in the mountains will only get worse. Although the giant ants are long, their height is only half a meter to 70 to 80 centimeters. The dense vegetation is the best cover for giant ants. If you want to turn them out in such a place, it is simply a challenge to the limit!

Ye Han lifted the top cover, took out a bottle of pheromone and threw it on the ground: "Stand back a little and see if there are giant ants nearby."

"Okay!" Huya steered the armored vehicle back a certain distance, stopped the car and looked up, surprised to see a colorful and dancing oversized butterfly.

"Veterans of Ye Pai, look!" Huya pointed forward excitedly.

"I saw it earlier, what are you shouting about!" The veteran scolded, looked left and right curiously, and compared it with his hands to the size of a grain of rice, "It's weird, the little ant is not as big as a grain of rice, and now they are all the same as Dian Sanlun It’s like a scorpion; butterflies are so much bigger than ants, how can they become so big after infection?”
