One Thousand Four Hundred and Eighty-Two Active Attack

Liu Huaidong was in a bad mood: "Jiang Xinghua, where is the swarm?"

The information about the expedition campaign was not a secret, and he had heard of the light bugs, but wasn't that thing only found on Jupiter? When did it appear on Earth?

More importantly, the light bugs fired out thin beams, which were very powerful. They could reach space from the ground, and it was like playing with the orbital elevator - although the cables were strong, they could not withstand the cutting of the thin beams. As long as the aliens set up the light bugs and fired a few shots at the cables of the orbital elevator, the orbital elevator would be finished immediately.

Sixty kilometers was definitely not beyond the range of the light bugs. No matter why the aliens had not opened fire, the orbital elevator was in extreme danger.

Jiang Xinghua was also confused, and quickly said: "The swarm has just landed and is near the coast!"

Liu Huaidong said anxiously: "Staff Officer Lu, contact the headquarters immediately and request air support!"

Staff Officer Lu's feet were rooted and motionless: "The headquarters has issued a support order to the fleet, but the nearest warship will take half an hour to fly over."

"What about the air force? Let our air force take off immediately, and there are missiles and warships. Use all the weapons that can be used!"

"Yes!"

Just a few seconds later, a shrill alarm sounded throughout the base.

He Xiangdong and his troops had just stepped down from the city wall and had not yet boarded the troop carrier when they heard the alarm again.

He Xiangdong's hair stood up all over his body: "Something happened, everyone, prepare for battle!"

The alarm just now was limited to the dock and had nothing to do with other areas of the base, but this time it was different. When the alarm sounded low, He Xiangdong clearly heard the high-pitched alarms from several neighboring areas.

Judging from the current signs, even in the best case, the entire coastline will sound the alarm, and in the worst case, the alarm will cover the entire equatorial base!

The soldiers who had just come down from the wall immediately climbed back up the wall like chicken blood.

The engineers wearing exoskeletons on the dock were stunned for a while, and then suddenly took action and ran to the equipment warehouse in the corner of the port.

Seeing this scene, He Xiangdong's heart skipped a beat.

There was not even a shadow of insects around the port.

The engineers have already started to receive weapons. This is not normal at all, okay?

This thought was still lingering in He Xiangdong's mind. The guns of the warships on the dock all moved, and all the gun barrels were raised high and pointed neatly to the south.

Are they going to fire?

As soon as this idea came into my mind, I heard a low whistling sound in my ears. Looking back, I saw several smoke columns rising from the missile position. Half of them turned to the south after taking off, and the other half turned their heads and flew north.

Before the missile flew far, a low roar was heard on the sea. It was the aircraft carrier launching carrier-based aircraft.

Damn!

He Xiangdong's brain was completely exhausted. Missiles, aircraft, warships... the three killer weapons of the Equatorial Base were all used. What the hell happened? Will the space battleship come out in a while?

How could he know that the space battleship was already on the way.

The signalman finally received the latest news and quickly handed it to He Xiangdong: "Captain, the headquarters reported that the Zerg swarm landed not long ago. The superiors ordered us to hand over the port defense to the engineers, prepare for battle, and wait for further orders from the headquarters."

He Xiangdong glanced at the order: "I know, send the order down, everyone is fully armed, and when the engineers come up, we will withdraw!"

He knew very well that the headquarters was treating his second regiment as a mobile force, but he didn't dislike it at all. Instead, he had an impulse to try in his heart.

In order to defend Buha Island, He Xiangdong's troops were equipped with a lot of powered exoskeletons. Although they cannot be compared with powered armor, they are also very powerful when combined with other technical equipment such as armored vehicles.

The situation of the Second Regiment is not an isolated case. In such troops equipped with a large number of exoskeletons, light equipment means only carrying portable weapons, while full equipment means that all technical equipment is fully prepared, and once an order is received, it can be immediately launched.

Although powered armor is used casually in the space fleet as if it is free, it is not easy to be equipped with a set of exoskeletons in the ground forces. Most officers and soldiers dare not expect powered armor at all.

It is no longer the first few years of the mobile infantry. It is not that simple to become a mobile infantry. It is all about choosing the best from the best. Only the best soldiers have the opportunity to become a member of the mobile infantry.

Many soldiers who are willing to join the mobile infantry have been working hard, but they can't get the opportunity. They can only retreat and get the exoskeleton first.

He Xiangdong was not ready yet, and the warships on the sea launched a batch of missiles in the north and south directions. This scene attracted countless attention. Many soldiers who did not know the truth were confused and secretly guessed what had happened.

The speed of the engineers was not bad. They had already rushed to the city wall with weapons and equipment. At this time, He Xiangdong suddenly felt a slight flash in front of his eyes, but when he carefully felt it, there was nothing.

He blinked in confusion, but still did not gain anything.

The first batch of engineers climbed the city wall. He Xiangdong was about to leave with the soldiers. A soldier suddenly raised his arm and pointed to the south: "Look, mushroom cloud!"

People who heard this sentence nearby looked far away at the same time, and indeed found a white mushroom cloud rising high in the south.

He Xiangdong understood all of a sudden. The flash just now was probably the strong light at the moment of the nuclear explosion!

He didn't know how far the nuclear explosion was from here, but judging from the position of the mushroom cloud, it was obviously an air explosion, which was the best way for nuclear bombs to attack ground targets. The insect swarm under the nuclear explosion must have suffered heavy casualties.

The actual situation was similar to He Xiangdong's guess. A million-ton nuclear bomb exploded in the air above the insect swarm that landed. The strong light radiation scorched the jungle and turned the giant insects in the forest into roasted insects.

Then the shock wave swept across the army, countless trees fell, and countless giant insects flew into the sky.

Just one nuclear bomb killed a large number of giant insects. The losses of the landing insect swarm exceeded half, and many of the remaining ones were injured. The entire insect swarm was in chaos.

Not only the giant insects landed, but also a small number of insect people. They are often the commanders in the insect swarm, equivalent to the grassroots officers in the insect swarm.

However, the human half of the Zerg is much more fragile than the insect half. As long as the giant insects keep a little distance, they can survive the power of the nuclear explosion. But the Zerg people at the same distance are not so lucky. Some die, some are injured, and only one in ten can continue to command the Zerg swarm.
