Seven Hundred and Thirty-Four God Bless
The situation in Africa is different. After giant ants took over Africa, insect experts from all over the world believed that the giant ants that devoured everything would rapidly decline due to lack of food.
However, the ant colony did not decline as experts predicted. Instead, it obtained food through population war and continued to prolong the colony by devouring its own kind.
In the early stages of the insect plague, the domestic situation in various countries was severe. Everyone's eyes were on their own countries, and few cared about Africa. In fact, no one in the past had a clear idea of the internal situation in Africa.
After the domestic situation stabilized and countries turned their attention to Africa again, they discovered that the African giant ants were not simply carnivorous insects, but omnivorous giant ants that mainly eat meat!
This discovery is simply a nightmare. It means that as long as the temperature is right, African giant ants can survive and reproduce wherever there are plants. This is not good news for humans.
However, further research found that African giant ants are very picky eaters and do not like to eat vegetarian food at all. They will only eat plants to satisfy their hunger when they are hungry.
Fortunately, otherwise, with the huge base of the African giant ant army, I am afraid that the primeval forests of Central Africa would have been gnawed into the Sahara.
The ant colony war aroused everyone's interest, but the fleet hovering over Morobida had no patience to wait any longer. A transport plane broke away from the formation, lowered its altitude, and pointed its nose at the giant ants. track.
The main battlefield of the ant colony is the tarmac rather than the runway. Although there are many giant ants on the runway, they are far from dense enough to cover the runway.
But instead of landing, the transport plane flew at low altitude along the airport runway, flooding the airport with the loud noise from its jet engines, hoping to disperse the ant colony on the runway with its voice.
Unfortunately, the hearing of the giant ants is really not very good, and the struggling ant colony could not hear it. Except for a few giant ants that were caught off guard and were blown over by the strong wind brought by the low-altitude flight, there was no further impact.
The unwilling Americans flew again, but it still had no effect. The Americans were dumbfounded and didn't know what to do.
Let them use Van Fleet's ammunition to level the airport and they can do it in minutes, but they really can't figure out how to drive away the giant ants.
Ye Han was very confused. Even he knew that giant ants have poor hearing and vision. Did the Yankees ask an insect expert to find out?
Little did he know that the method of flying ants to drive away ants was originally proposed by American experts, but instead of using the noise of flight to drive away giant ants, they hoped that the infrasound waves generated during flight could drive away the ant colonies.
Obviously, the Americans' expulsion experiment was a bit of a failure, and the ant colony didn't give them any face.
At this moment, the commander-in-chief of the operation, Lieutenant General Thomas, who was sitting in the U.S. command center, looked gloomy and categorically ordered the fleet to make an emergency landing.
The circling fleet received orders, and the planes carrying personnel immediately prepared for emergency landing. The soldiers inside the aircraft also received orders at the same time, and everyone prepared for battle as quickly as possible.
More than ten seconds later, the transport aircraft numbered AC-056 lowered its nose and aligned it with the runway. It flew lower and slower amidst the roar of the engine. The bottom compartment opened and lowered the two rows of wheels.
The heavy transport plane ignored the ants occupying the runway and landed on the runway with a harsh friction sound. The wheels with a diameter of more than one meter flew forward quickly, crushing all the giant ants blocking the wheels one by one. The group waded through two passages filled with corpses.
The vibration of the plane's landing spread to all directions, attracting the attention of many giant ants. The giant ants near the runway seemed to have heard invisible instructions, and they gave up their previous opponents and swarmed towards the transport plane that had not yet stopped.
Everyone in the headquarters was dumbfounded when they witnessed this scene - what is going on? Two groups of giant ants shook hands and made peace?
After taking a closer look, I found that only the giant ants near the runway were swarming towards the aircraft, while the giant ants in the distance were still biting.
When the C-17 was about to come to a stop, the two pilots in the cockpit discovered that countless giant ants were coming. They were frightened and did not dare to stop the aircraft. Instead, they pushed forward and continued to use the aircraft. The wheel walks through the ant colony.
The surveillance camera on this aircraft is placed under the belly of the aircraft.
Just half of the landing gear could be seen, and countless giant ants suddenly filled the screen. They threw themselves at the wheels without fear of death. Some were crushed by the wheels, and some jumped on the wheels and were crushed again. They were broken into pieces, and some successfully jumped onto the landing gear and climbed into the belly of the plane in twos and twos.
Although the transport aircraft is heavy and huge, it is easy to crush giant ants, but as more and more giant ants are stuffed into the wheels, the gaps between the wheels are almost filled with ant shells, and the speed of the aircraft is inevitably affected. Affected, it becomes slower and slower until it can't move.
It's not impossible to forcefully charge in at full power, but that would probably damage the landing gear. In this damn place, there is no condition to repair the landing gear. If not, the plane will have to be thrown here.
As soon as the plane stopped, a swarm of ants in hot pursuit swarmed up and quickly engulfed the lower body of the plane.
If it were another type of aircraft, it might not have collapsed so quickly, but the belly of the C-17 was too low, and the vertical distance from the runway was only as high as a person. Only two giant ants could cover this height.
At this time, the tail hatch should have been opened to let out the soldiers in the cabin, but the two pilots looked at each other and neither of them dared to open the hatch.
Just kidding, there is a mountain of ants and a sea of ants outside the plane. If we let people out at this time, wouldn't they be sending people to death?
Having said that, as soon as the tail hatch is opened, don't the ants immediately pour into the cabin? Not to mention the troops in the cabin by then, they may not be spared either.
At this time, the second transport plane numbered AC-073 landed. At the same time, the cabin received an order from the command center to temporarily not open the cabin and wait for further orders from the command center.
The two pilots finally breathed a sigh of relief and looked at each other thankfully. However, just as their smiles broke out, a giant ant suddenly jumped onto the windshield with a loud bang, which almost scared them both to death.
The captain's eyes widened with lingering fear: "My God, can it get in?"
The co-pilot was uneasy: "Almighty Lord, please give me a peaceful heart, please give me infinite courage..."
The friendly aircraft No. 073 that had just landed attracted the attention of some giant ants. Many giant ants that besieged 056 found new targets and abandoned 056 and switched to 073.
The co-pilot's eyes shone: "Did prayer work?"
The captain looked surprised: "Hallelujah!"
How did the two of them know that it was not 073 that attracted the attention of the giant ants, but that they had shut down the engine. After the engine stopped, it no longer produced noise and vibration, so the giant ants were attracted to 073, which had not yet shut down the engine.
Suddenly I heard a sharp friction sound. When I looked up, I was shocked to find that the giant ants outside the window opened their ferocious jaws and bit hard on the glass, again and again.
"my God!"
