One Thousand Seven Hundred and Thirty-Six Abandoned Cities
A single stone stirs up a thousand waves. The preparation of the special service team is only a microcosm of the entire battle. When Ye Han received the combat order, different arms of many countries at home and abroad received similar orders. From the plains of Asia to the coast of Europe, from the deserts of the Middle East to the forests of North America, human soldiers were hurriedly preparing for battle everywhere.
Hundreds of thousands of coalition soldiers secretly went to the mission coordinates, from vehicles on the ground to ships on the sea, from aircraft on the ground to warships in space, all kinds of technical equipment are available.
Humans have been suppressed by aliens for too long, and finally found an opportunity to fight back. The top leaders of various countries went all out and fought a beautiful battle.
The situation abroad is difficult to obtain, but Funing is under the eyes of the special service team, and the changes every day are seen by the soldiers.
First, the reinforcements that had been wandering outside gave up the encirclement and suppression of the insect swarm and finally entered Funing City.
The first batch of reinforcements was a fully equipped heavy-armored combined brigade, with more than 100 tanks alone, more than the tanks equipped by the entire Funing garrison. Mi Yuan drooled at the sight, wishing he could directly snatch the friendly tanks for his own use.
The next day, the second batch of reinforcements arrived. This time it was two battalions of mobile infantry. Mi Yuan almost died of dehydration because of drooling too much.
With these two reinforcements, at least half of Funing can be overturned!
Such a luxurious configuration far exceeded the imagination of the Funing garrison. Unless you are blind, you can see that Beibu has no intention of defending Funing to the death.
Although the reinforcements were immediately put into the battlefield after they arrived, some speculations were still quietly circulated among the garrison.
On February 17, at midnight on the third day of the Chinese New Year, the fully armed special service team left Funing in a truck. The convoy moved south all the way and arrived at an abandoned fishing port in the south of Funing an hour later.
Ye Han was the first to jump out of the car. There was silence all around, only the sound of waves coming from afar.
Looking up, the moonless sky was dotted with stars, and the vast Milky Way stretched across the sky... Turning on the night vision goggles, the dark sky suddenly turned into a clear sky, with countless points of light shining in the sky, and the originally dim Milky Way radiance flowing, full of fatal attraction.
Ye Han suddenly had an inappropriate thought: Humans have always been on the ground since ancient times, but have always yearned for the sky. Now that they have conquered the sky and stepped into the more distant space, why is this?
The team members got off the car one after another, and under the command of several captains, they were on guard on the spot, and safety signals were quickly sent back from all directions.
Watching the convoy leave,
Ye Han ordered the troops to set off, and the soldiers immediately set off in teams and headed west.
The fishing port is more than 20 kilometers away from Asia No. 1. Although the road connecting the two places is dilapidated, it is no problem for military vehicles to pass. It was only to avoid alerting the enemy that Ye Han chose to give up taking a car and approach the target purely on foot.
At dawn, the troops arrived at the outskirts of the abandoned city, and the ruins came into view.
The troops did not rush into the city, but stopped at a safe distance and released drones to scout the situation.
Several mechanical insects flew into the city, and a suffocating picture was transmitted back to the special service team through the drone's lens - there was no one on the road, cracks everywhere, and weeds grew in the cracks; the streets were full of unclear debris; a thick layer of dust on the debris had turned into soil, and each pile of debris was covered with tenacious grass.
Extending his eyes to the distance, the buildings on both sides of the street were dilapidated and old, with large areas of wall peeling off, revealing potholes and bricks; the glass in the window frame was only one in ten, and there were scattered broken glass everywhere under the window.
A drone flew into a building on the street, and the lens was full of old garbage, moldy floors, discolored curtains, overturned electrical appliances... The dark corners without sunlight were covered with thick moss.
Another drone flew into an alley. The dark and damp alley was full of unnamed plants, and bones were visible among the weeds.
The drone flew closer, and a skull half buried in the soil appeared in the camera... It was not an animal skeleton, but a human skull!
It was unknown how long this skull had been in the alley. The jaws opened wide as if echoing the screams before death. The soil filled the empty cranial cavity. Several young grasses drilled in and out between the disordered teeth and empty eye sockets, and the morning dew was still hanging on the grass stems.
Ye Han had witnessed countless corpses with his own eyes, and it was not the first time he had seen such a scene, but Ye Han, who witnessed all this, still sighed silently.
No one knew what kind of story this skeleton had, whether he was a man or a woman, whether he was poor or rich. After stripping off all the halos in his life, all that was left was a scattered skeleton.
But this is war, this is death, and this is the final destination of a person.
The remains of those victims can still be found now, but in another ten or twenty years, these remains will eventually be buried by time.
If humans win this war, how many people will still remember what happened in the war decades later? If hundreds of years later, both civilians and soldiers will become cold and empty numbers in history books - no matter how profound the words are, they cannot describe the suffering that humans endure today. Only by experiencing it personally can we understand what kind of rebirth humans have experienced.
And all of this is based on the victory of humans. If humans lose the war... Ye Han doesn't want to think about it anymore, but he knows very well that if humans fail, being enslaved by aliens is the luckiest outcome.
Ye Han put away his worries, made a few gestures, and the soldiers quickly distanced themselves and advanced towards the city with the cover of vegetation and terrain.
Although the local minimum temperature was close to zero degrees, the suburbs were still full of various plants. The open space between the special service team and the city was just a mess of grass.
At a glance, there were strange alien plants everywhere, some like crooked mushrooms, some like twisted tree trunks, and each alien plant dominated the nearby land. There was not a single grass growing within half a step.
But after getting away from the alien plants, you can see thriving native plants everywhere. Any place where they can take root and grow can see their tenacious figures, and their number far exceeds that of alien plants!
Ye Han couldn't help but sigh, and felt a little confused.
The struggle between plants is like this war. Humans struggled hard, but they could never see the dawn of defeating aliens. Where should humans go tomorrow?
But he knew very well that giving up the struggle would only lead to death, and only by resisting could there be a glimmer of hope!
Perhaps, the opportunity for change is today!
