One Thousand One Hundred and Ninety-Four The Main Force Is Fought Out
As the night gets darker, insects chirp in the forest, and countless small flying insects circle and dance in front of the lamp. They fly close to the lampshade unknowingly, and are driven away by the high temperature emitted by the lamp.
Some of the unlucky ones fell directly onto the lampshade and were roasted into dried insects in a short time.
Behind the high wall, Ye Han looked up at the sky. The dark sky was dotted with a few stars.
Today happened to be the beginning of the month, and the moon could not be seen the whole night. Ye Han knew that there was a space fleet above his head, but he still felt very uneasy in his heart.
I hope there won't be any trouble.
Ye Han was thinking about his own thoughts when he suddenly heard an abnormal rustling sound mixed with the chirping of insects in his ears. He couldn't help but look at the high wall.
There was nothing unusual about the sentry on the wall. He was still holding his rifle and pacing back and forth unhurriedly. Every time he took a step, he would look towards the west side of the high wall.
Ye Han couldn't help but secretly wonder if he had heard something wrong, but the rustling sound was still echoing in his ears. According to time, the insect swarm was almost due to arrive.
Looking at the others, the soldiers were standing up one after another, looking at the high wall silently.
The sentry on the wall still found nothing unusual. Just as Ye Han was about to issue a warning, a sentry suddenly stopped and raised his rifle in his arms: "There's something going on!"
The shouts spread far in the silent night, drowning out all sounds.
The wall instantly boiled. The sentries and the awakened soldiers immediately woke up their resting companions. Everyone took their positions, guns loaded and knives unsheathed, grenades at hand, quietly waiting for the swarm of insects.
Although the people on the wall are not front-line troops, which domestic combat force has not dealt with giant insects? Even if he has never faced such a large insect swarm, he still has some experience in dealing with them.
The rustling sound became louder and louder, and the originally unresponsive radar slowly began to fluctuate. After a while, the screen was filled with fast-moving targets.
At the command of the on-site commander, the self-propelled mortars behind the high wall opened fire at the same time. In the continuous roar, thousands of artillery shells roared over the high wall and fell into the jungle on the west side of the high wall.
The jungle that was originally shrouded in darkness was instantly illuminated by fire. Countless explosions occurred one after another. The flying soil, blown plants and broken insects were mixed together, and the rising smoke went straight into the sky.
Although the artillery positions behind the wall were scattered, the artillery shells that landed were connected in a straight line, forming a barrage that cut off the insect swarm. After three consecutive rounds of shelling, the barrage began to extend westward, and the artillery used the most classic barrage tactic to advance slowly. Deal with the surging swarms of insects.
The bugs dodged and ran under the gunfire, but not a single bug turned around and ran away. Their speed was astonishingly fast. Many bugs broke through the barrage and rushed towards the high wall with their long legs.
Four hundred meters!
"Fire!" the commander gave the order, and gunfire erupted from the high wall, but the shooting frequency was not very high. Everyone fired when they aimed at the target.
The insect is three to four meters long, but only a little over one meter tall. The frontal area of the insect is only about half that of a human being.
Not everyone can hit a high-speed moving target four hundred meters away. Shooting randomly will only waste bullets, so the soldiers are very cautious.
Ye Han couldn't help but nod when he saw this. Even though there was a second-line army on the wall, it was in good fighting condition. If equipped with power armor, it might not be any worse than the first-line army.
If he read correctly, 80% of the reason why this unit is still in the second line has nothing to do with its combat effectiveness, but rather that it did not get a chance to prove itself. The People's Liberation Army only has the first-class main force it has fought, and has never developed a first-line unit!
Just take a look at the military's combat sequence and you will know. Which first-class main force has not made outstanding military achievements and left its name in military history?
Without a solid record, no matter how strong the combat effectiveness is, they can only stay on the second line. When will they show a record that convinces everyone, when will they be able to step up into the ranks of the first-class main force.
I wonder if this blockade can lead to a first-class main force...
Thinking of this, Ye Han couldn't help but laugh, laughing at himself for thinking too much. Is the first-class main force so easy to produce?
The insect swarm is indeed very powerful.
But in terms of real combat effectiveness, the insect swarm cannot be compared with the real enemy. This battle should be fought well. If there is any slight difference, there will definitely be a lot of curses.
Unless the insect swarm is replaced by insect people, there may be a glimmer of hope.
But that is absolutely impossible, because all the information Beidu has obtained, including the remote sensing results of its own satellites, all say that there are only insect swarms and no insect people in Asan.
The battle continued. Although the artillery fired continuously at all times, more and more giant insects broke through the barrage. The originally loose gunshots slowly became compact. The moment the insect swarm rushed into the 200-meter-high wall, a few of them on the wall Each firepower point fired at the same time, and the dense bullets were like a flaming whip, volleying towards the running insects, penetrating, knocking down, and smashing them one by one.
Any insect that is pointed at by a machine gun will only die. Each firepower point suddenly becomes the most powerful support on the defense line.
With this intensity of firepower, let alone the insect swarms, even if the servants came, there was no way they could break through the high wall. Unless the aliens took action themselves, there would be some hope!
No longer having to worry about the wall, Ye Han could safely and boldly figure out how to complete the orders from above.
Catching a lone giant insect alive is not a big deal. The problem is that the battle is so fierce that there is no way to ask the soldiers to hold back. There is no chance to capture the giant insect alive in front of the defense line... Well, maybe the giant insect has just been transported back here. Some excited soldiers came over and rushed to kill the giant insect.
If you want to complete the mission, you can only leave the defense line and attack the lone insects.
Ye Han made up his mind and immediately said on the radio: "Attention, all units, assist in defense according to the plan. Luo Qi, take your people and follow me!"
Several sighs came from the radio immediately. Everyone knew that Ye Han would definitely make trouble again, but in the current situation, everyone had to stay in their command positions. Even if they wanted to participate, they had no chance. Only Luo Qi, the chief guard, had the opportunity to run around with Ye Han.
Luo Qi immediately agreed: "Division Commander, how many people should I take?"
"Take them all, and bring more bullets." Ye Han said.
The actual establishment of the guard company should be a whole battalion, but the personnel added to the first division are given priority to the grassroots. Until now, the guard battalion still remains in the establishment, and the actual number of people is less than a company.
However, in terms of combat effectiveness, the guard company is second, and no one in the entire division dares to say that it is first.
Luo Qi immediately gathered the troops, and the soldiers were eager to try, just waiting for Ye Han to give orders.
The guard company were all veterans of the 1st Division, so Ye Han didn't need to do any pre-war mobilization. With a wave of his hand, the troops immediately followed Ye Han and set off. The entire company headed north along the high wall and left the battle area in a short while.
