Seven Hundred and Ninety-Nine, Stirring up the World

As the parties continued to argue, military operations in Africa could only be suspended. The only military operation in Africa was the US military's construction of the Nile Defense Line on the Nile River to prevent giant ants from moving north.

At this time, all insiders believed that the ant colony would quickly move northward under the command of aliens. The purpose of this was not only to open up the road to Europe, but also to use offense instead of defense, contain human military power, and buy time for development.

However, to everyone's surprise, it was uneventful for several days. There was no movement from either the aliens or the ant colony. Even the giant ants on the ground were much less active, as if the aliens were shrinking their forces to recuperate.

The situation is a bit strange, and various speculations are endless. Amid the divergent opinions, a piece of news suddenly detonates the human world - giant ants are spreading in South America, and countless giant ants are heading north like a tide!

Satellite monitoring found that spider ants and flying ants also appeared in South American ant colonies!

This news further proves that aliens have a premeditated plan to land on the earth. The purpose of the aliens is to transform the giant insects on the earth and let the insect swarm act as the vanguard to occupy the earth!

The Americans were so angry that there was a fire in their own backyard that they did not hesitate to move the international fleet over Africa to South America.

However, shortly after the fleet set sail, the African ant colony, which had been hidden for several days, launched a full-scale attack. Countless giant ants, spider ants and flying ants emerged from the surface, and the rolling insect tide moved northward.

The insect swarms on two continents are attacking at the same time, and there are strong signs of occupying Africa and South America, and then spreading around the world.

At this time, Beidu was extremely grateful for the decision to send troops to Siberia. Otherwise, once the aliens transformed wolf insects, the northern border would inevitably be overrun by insect swarms.

Both Africa and South America have terrain that is conducive to defense. As long as the Nile River and Panama are guarded, blocking the insect swarm is not a dream.

There is a land border of thousands of kilometers between China and Siberia. It is difficult to say whether the northern defense line will be able to block the insect swarm.

Faced with the increasingly bad situation, various countries finally made the decision to send troops to Africa, while South America was temporarily defended independently by the US military.

This is because countries generally believe that mankind does not have the strength to fight on two fronts, and it is best to capture Africa first and then turn around to deal with South America.

Another hidden reason is that Africa is too close to Europe, and it is impossible for European countries to sacrifice the near for the distant and deal with the South American ant colonies first and then turn around to deal with the African ant colonies.

It is in this situation,

Ye Han and his team members received an order to return home, but there was no task force to return home. Instead, the Djibouti base received an order from home, asking Zhuang Bo to be ready to receive the troops.

Later, Ye Han learned that two entire regiments of motorized infantry had been dispatched to Africa.

This is just the beginning. It is said that the military is preparing to expand the Djibouti base and establish a group army in Africa. More troops will be dispatched in the future. The total number of motorized infantry dispatched by China to Africa will reach five to six divisions, with a total strength of about 50,000 people. , under the jurisdiction of the fleet, aviation and various corresponding arms.

Since the outbreak of the insect plague, China has carried out several mobilizations. Today, its total military strength is the largest in the world. No matter how you look at it, sending 50,000 to 60,000 people to Africa is a piece of cake.

But the problem is not that way. The troops sent to Africa must be motorized infantry with power armor, otherwise it will be difficult to fight against the ant colonies. The equipment for so many people is a huge expense. If the raid on Siberia had not liberated the northern defense line, With so many troops, the military simply cannot spare so many troops.

However, both base expansion and the formation of the African Army will take time. The military's short-term goal is just to set up a shelf first.

Deploying troops to Africa is only part of the military's operations. At home, many troops withdrawn from the northern defense line were sent to the south by the military - there are large tropical virgin forests inside and outside the southern border of Xinjiang, where there are also hidden aliens and modified giant insects. Due to the environmental conditions, in order to prevent aliens from taking root in southern Xinjiang, the northern capital had to take precautions.

China has not invested many troops in Africa. European countries are the main force stationed in Africa. Many countries have even deployed one-third or even one-half of their country's military forces to Africa.

In this case, only the Americans used the excuse of resisting the South American swarm to withdraw from Africa, and even the Nile defense line was handed over to their European allies.

What the Americans did is not surprising at all. On the one hand, it is not in the interest of the United States to deal with the aliens in Africa first. On the other hand, the swarms of insects in South America are approaching step by step. For both reasons and reasons, the Americans should withdraw their troops from Africa.

They have no choice but to withdraw. Since the outbreak of ant colonies in South America, the mood of the people in the country has become more and more agitated day by day. If a large number of US troops are sent to Africa at this time, the American people will have to rebel.

At present, no matter in Africa or South America, humans have not come into contact with the insect swarm, but rumors are flying all over the country, and the governments of various countries even have to control the media and limit public opinion to prevent the situation from getting out of control.

Just when most of the world's attention was focused on Africa, the American ant army was the first to arrive in Panama. The raging ant colonies launched attacks simultaneously on a cross-section of more than 60 kilometers wide, and fierce conflicts broke out with the US military stationed in Panama.

Due to the short preparation time, the U.S. military's defense line in Pakistan did not even have a prototype and had to rely on simple fortifications to fight against the ant colonies. The U.S. military commander did not hesitate to use highly toxic chemical agents during the battle to win the rally for the follow-up troops. time.

Fire support from the space fleet arrived first. The weather at the time of the battle was not very good, and the laser cannon was not effective. The space fleet could only use artillery shells to provide fire support.

The cannons on the space battleship fire very fast, but there are not many cannon shells in reserve. They have to suppress the firing speed to avoid burning out all the cannonballs. Fortunately, the cannonballs are very powerful, and every cannonball dropped can achieve good results.

A few minutes later, the navy's fleet launched an artillery bombardment. The large-caliber naval guns on the dead ship were extremely powerful. A large-caliber shell of more than 400 millimeters could clear a football field of giant ants.

After the Navy joined the battle, the task of interdicting firepower was handed over to the Navy. The space fleet began to conduct interdiction bombardment, dumping a large number of artillery shells on the following ant colonies, killing a large number of the effective forces of the ant colonies.

The last to enter the battle was the army artillery group behind the defense line. The flexible artillery group was mainly responsible for frontline fire support. It fired artillery shells wherever fire support was needed - American soldiers liked to call for air support the most, but the large number of flying ants made the air force With our hands tied, fortunately, the US military's artillery is not a vegetarian.

The effect of the four-in-one fire strike was extraordinary. Hundreds of shells exploded every second. The intensive firepower finally contained the ant colony's attack. The US military killed countless giant ants in more than an hour of fighting, and the ant corpses piled up. Like a mountain, the exact number cannot be counted.

However, this is only the first wave.

The situation in Africa is better. The ant colonies can only go north along the Nile River. As long as the Nile River defense line is defended, the ant colonies can be stopped. Moreover, there are deserts nearby, so even if nuclear bombs are dropped, there will be no problem.

All in all, global military power is being roiled by ant colonies on both continents.
