Four Hundred and Forty Six Disadvantages
"That's what the radar found!" Antony said.
The spider webs that floated onto the river were immediately hit by the firepower from the opposite bank. After breaking the web, the giant spiders slowly fell, and those that landed on the ground crawled to the opposite bank regardless of life and death, and those that fell into the water began to spin silk before they touched the water surface. Self-rescue, even if it falls into the water, it can crawl out by dragging the spider silk.
Before Ye Han could see clearly, the armored vehicle rushed to the other side of the bridge.
Two naval armored vehicles were parked at the head of the bridge to act as a roadblock. Seeing the convoy approaching, they retreated immediately to make way for a passage.
The armored vehicle galloped past, braked to a stop after rushing for more than 20 meters, Ye Han jumped out of the vehicle, and suddenly saw a trolley parked on the river embankment, with two steel cylinders on it, and the hoses on the cylinders were connected to the side A spray gun in a man's hand.
The man twisted the spray gun twice, the flame flashed, and a beam of flame shot out of the spray gun.
Ye Han's heart skipped a beat, that thing seems to be an oxyacetylene flame for cutting... Could it be that they want to use this thing to deal with giant spiders?
The man holding the spray gun adjusted the flame, stretched his arm and lifted the spray gun up. Only then did Ye Han realize that there was a thin rod half a person's height tied to the bottom of the spray gun. The man held the stick with both hands and sent the spray gun outside the dam. The gushing oxyacetylene flame slashed across the spider web, and the spider thread that was tightly stuck to the embankment was cut off suddenly. The giant spider crawling on that thread swayed, if there was another thread hooked under its feet, You have to fall into the river on the spot.
As soon as the thin rod in the man's hand was raised and lowered, the spider threads across the river bank were broken one after another, and the giant spiders on the spider threads fell into the river one by one. The river water, reacting a step slower, was directly washed away by the river water.
Ye Han even saw a large amount of spider silk emanating from the abdomen of a giant spider that fell into the water. Unfortunately, in the water, the spider silk had nowhere to attach, and could only be washed farther and farther by the rushing river.
Ye Han breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, the water flow in this river is not small. If there is only a shallow layer, giant spiders can cross the river by wading, so why bother to spin silk on the water to build a bridge?
It is said that the masters are among the people, but this is not just said casually.
The most indispensable thing in the world is smart people. If Ye Han can think of using fire to deal with giant spiders, other people can also think of it.
But Ye Han could only think of using a flamethrower. I never thought of using civilian equipment to DIY weapons against giant spiders.
Thinking about it carefully, I really answered the saying that it is easy to go from simple to extravagant, and it is difficult to go from extravagant to simple.
Looking carefully, it was not just that one person who cut the spider silk on the embankment, but one at a certain distance. Everyone worked together, and the spider silk across the two banks of the river broke, and the spider group had to retreat to the opposite bank.
Ye Han doesn't know how far the giant spider can spit out the spider silk, but he must not be able to directly touch the spider silk from the other side to this side. You don't have to worry about the giant spider crossing the river in a short time, so as long as you guard a few bridges on the river, you can Stop the giant spider's attack!
Thinking of this, Ye Han contacted Commander Zhou again: "Our department has arrived, how is the situation now?"
"The situation is improving, but the overall situation is still not good for us. There are not enough troops and weapons. It is not so easy to hold the residential area."
"I saw many ordinary people participating in the battle..."
"It was organized by the local government, and they all used civilian guns. No one expected that the spider's offensive would be so strong."
"I have already applied for a batch of flamethrowers, which should be better than guns against Juting," Ye Han said.
Battalion Commander Zhou immediately said: "I also just received a notice from above asking us to continue to hold our ground for at least a few hours...Captain Ye, please come to the headquarters."
"Okay, my people will stay here on the bridge for the time being. Where there is a need, you can transfer the armored vehicles guarding the bridge away, or just send my people to other directions."
"Let's act as a reserve team for the time being, and bring them to the headquarters together." Battalion Commander Zhou said.
The communication was interrupted, and Ye Han rushed to the headquarters immediately.
Battalion Commander Zhou's headquarters is located on the west side of the residential area. This is also the direction with the highest density of giant spiders and the most difficult to defend. Most of the armored battalion's troops are arranged in this direction.
A dozen armored vehicles lined up along the street,
A liquefied gas tank was placed on the opposite side of the street at intervals. When Ye Han arrived, he saw a few giant spiders jumping out. The armored vehicle immediately shot at the steel cylinder across the street. When the liquefied gas cylinder was pierced, a blazing flame burst out from the bullet hole.
Liquefied petroleum gas is flammable and explosive, but the prerequisite for gas explosion is to mix with air to reach the explosive concentration limit, and the ratio will not explode if the ratio is lower or higher than the explosive concentration limit.
The combustible gas sprayed out of the liquefied gas cylinder is ignited by the incendiary bomb as soon as it comes into contact with the air, and it is too late to reach the limit of explosion. Therefore, the combustible gas sprayed out of the cylinder will only form a gushing flame, not an explosion on the spot!
However, giant spiders are particularly afraid of flames, and in the face of not strong flames, they actually backed down and hesitated to move forward.
Seeing the exhausted steel cylinders farther away, Ye Han finally understood why the residential area can last until now.
Ye Han found Commander Zhou's command post on the first floor of a building. Because of a power outage, Commander Zhou directly let the command vehicle block the gate of the temporary command post, and used the lights and equipment on the command vehicle to conduct command.
Ye Han got into the headquarters, and Commander Zhou greeted him immediately, pointing to the middle-aged man wearing camouflage without a title beside him, he said: "Captain Ye, this is the county magistrate of Yuan, Eshan County, so I won't talk nonsense. , Captain Ye, you have the highest military rank, let's hand over the command right now."
"It's up to you." Ye Han said, "I'm in special operations, and I'm not good at defensive command."
According to regulations, when there is no affiliation relationship, the person with the highest rank should be in charge of commanding, and if the position is unknown, the commanding officer with the highest rank should be in charge.
Battalion Commander Zhou didn't know Ye Han's specific position, but Ye Han's military rank was one level higher, so he took the initiative to propose the transfer of command.
Theoretically, Ye Han should indeed take over the command of the defense of the residential area, but his family knows his own affairs. Although the special forces are very powerful, they are only good at commanding small units. Moreover, special operations are characterized by avoiding the most important and paying less attention, and will never fight a frontal war of attrition.
However, defensive operations are all about consumption. Ye Han has fought so many battles, but he only participated in defensive operations during the Jingjiang defensive battle, and he participated in the battle as a small soldier. He has no command experience at all. He has neither ability nor experience. Command the defense operations here.
What's more, Battalion Commander Zhou's troops are the main defense force. He, a foreign monk, takes over as soon as he says he wants to take over. What will the soldiers of the armored battalion think?
It is absolutely taboo for military strategists to change generals before battle, and the defense situation in residential areas is very bad. To put it bluntly, the command right is now a hot potato. If the giant spider breaks through the defense line, the commander must be responsible.
