Chapter 1659: Unwelcome
The group that invited Qu Jianlei couldn't be said to be decadent, but they were calm and disillusioned.
As for those in the building, most of them seemed calmer, as if they were ready to face any outcome.
Qu Jianlei and his companions ignored these people and continued to wander around.
But in the end, they were stopped and questioned - to see their reserve numbers.
"There's no use in checking this," Qu Jianlei muttered, "When the aliens come, can we still be deserters?"
In the battlefield of the human civil war, deserters might survive, but against the aliens...
The soldiers who checked didn't care about his complaints. Now the whole Bitao is a huge gunpowder barrel that may explode at any time.
"Resisting the aliens must also be organized, otherwise you can only wait to die. I hope you will cooperate."
However, this less strict inspection has no equipment to prevent mental interference, so it is too easy to fool through.
Then the soldier reminded them, "Be restrained, don't walk around, be careful not to be caught as a spy of the evil empire."
"Spy?" Jing Yuexin blinked and asked back with a smile, "Will spies come to Bitao?"
"Is there a problem?" The soldier said seriously, "If they sabotage, won't it be more convenient for aliens to invade?"
Jing Yuexin was speechless for a moment, and walked a long way before muttering in a low voice, "The people of the alliance... have such dirty hearts!"
As a genuine imperial citizen, she never thought that she would facilitate alien invasions by sabotaging.
War should be unscrupulous, and the moral bottom line can be trampled on at will, but at least it should be self-interested at the expense of others, right?
Qu Jianlei was silent. Although he was dissatisfied with the empire, the people of the alliance seemed bold and unrestrained, and they were even more unscrupulous in doing things.
There were too few people on the planet, so the two of them simply released Xiaohu's clone, at least the three of them didn't look so sneaky.
The three walked to a large residential area and found a few small groups of residents gathered from afar. Just as they were about to walk forward, an alarm suddenly sounded.
Qu Jianlei and Jing Yuexin were still a little unaccustomed to this situation and could not help but be stunned.
The crowd in front of them dispersed and ran into the surrounding buildings, but the speed was not particularly fast.
Obviously, they have basically adapted to this kind of life.
There were even people shouting at Qu Jianlei and the other two, while making some gestures.
The people shouting should have a little power. They did not let the three people in the distance get closer, but pointed out the direction to avoid.
"Is this guarding against us?" Jing Yuexin muttered softly, "We are about to fight, but they actually reject living forces?"
That being said, the three of them had already followed the other party's command and trotted towards an independent small bungalow.
In the small bungalow, there was a passage that slanted downward. The door of the passage was ajar and opened by pulling it outward.
Not far behind the door was a turn, and the passage continued to extend downward with dim lights.
With the development of the alliance's technology, lighting equipment is not lacking. The light is so dim, I don't know if it is to save energy or prevent exposure.
Walking towards the downward passage, a solid room appeared after more than ten meters.
The room is not big, about 20 square meters, with ventilation holes, water pipes, and many monitoring screens.
In addition, there are some fire control systems and some ammunition, but no energy blocks.
There is no doubt that the energy blocks on those external weapons are limited. Once they are used up, the people in the room have to prepare them themselves.
This is an air-raid shelter, and there are some weapons for counterattack, which are very simple.
Of course, there is no need to consider comfort in wartime. Being alive is better than anything else, so there is no need to be too pretentious.
But Xiaohu's clone still muttered, "There is no food and fuel... How many days can ordinary people last?"
"It's temporary..." Qu Jianlei thought that this was just the beginning of the attack and defense, and it was not a critical moment.
But he stopped talking halfway and blinked, "Those people don't let us get close... are they worried about the supplies?"
"That should be the case," Jing Yuexin nodded thoughtfully, "I thought they wanted us to hide as soon as possible."
"Hey," Qu Jianlei shook his head and finally said, "He is quite experienced."
He was annoyed, but to be fair, he might do the same thing.
The people in the residential area should be familiar with each other, and the three of them are pure passers-by.
Facing the impending doomsday, whether it is maintaining order or the supply and demand of survival materials, acquaintances are always easier to coordinate than outsiders.
Letting strangers into the shelter at this time is simply laying mines.
There is no need to criticize this behavior. Unfortunately, it is only aimed at them.
"There is a door here!" Jing Yuexin made a new discovery on the wall.
Because the room was rough and the lights were dim, they didn't notice it at first.
Qu Jianlei took a look and curled his lips, "It opens inwards... This air-raid shelter is really unpopular."
In most buildings, the meaning of the door opening inwards or outwards is completely different.
In the current situation, opening outwards is convenient for people in the house to rush out, while opening inwards is convenient for people outside to break in.
The door of the passage they came down opened outwards, which was used to block foreigners.
But this door obviously leads to other buildings, but it opens inwards. Obviously, this room has a very low priority.
The most important thing is that the door locks are all on the opposite side, which is too passive.
But the three of them didn't care. With their skills, it didn't matter whether there was a door or not. It just felt bad.
However, as a stranger from outside, they could find such a room at any time, so they couldn't say anything.
Then, Xiaohu's clone made a new discovery, "The automation of these weapons... is really too poor."
Qu Jianlei laughed when he heard it, "I guess you have to blame this."
Xiaohu was a little unconvinced, "Maybe this room has a low priority, I'll try other places."
However, the facts proved that Qu Jianlei was not wrong. Most of the weapons on the entire planet have a low degree of automation.
Especially those key defense areas, the degree of automation is even lower, and the data networking is obviously regionalized.
This time it was Xiaohu's turn to be angry and funny, "Does artificial intelligence have no personality? This is the biggest insult to me!"
"Okay, the aliens have started to attack," Jiao Daoren sent out his consciousness, "Don't fight."
Qu Jianlei and Jing Yuexin also released their consciousness to observe.
Xiao Hu's clone didn't have the ability, "Forget it, I'll invade and see if I can switch the camera over."
More than two million kilometers outside the Bi Tao Star, there are forest sea tribes in five directions, and each tribe has about 1,800 trees.
These are just the vanguard troops of the alien race. There are still a lot of dark clouds in the deep space behind them, which are patches of forest sea.
What's interesting is that these alien races seem to understand the tactics of "surrounding five and missing one", leaving one direction empty for people to escape.
Of course, it is not easy to escape without damage, and there are small patches of trees everywhere in space.
It can be said that Bi Tao is now half closed.
The military should still have a considerable number of warships now, but...when fighting against alien races, warships cannot be used to defend the planet.
A large number of alien races gathered in outer space and did not approach, just to let the military send warships for a decisive battle.
After all, the artillery fire on the ground will bring great damage to the alien race. Not only is the cost too high, but their lethality will also be reduced.
There is no doubt that the military is also aware of this. Taking the initiative will lose the ground cover.
If they really want to fight a space war, they would rather be in the deep space, so that at least they can play the speed advantage.
Now there is ground artillery cover, and it is too stupid to fight a space war at home.
Unless Bi Tao is the main battlefield of the decisive battle, the two sides will directly compete in military strength, but it is obvious that it is not now.
At present, the alien race has only sent out three large forests and started to approach and attack in three directions.
There are more than a thousand trees in each of the three forests, all of which were mobilized from the rear. Such an attack can basically be regarded as harassment.
However, it is obvious that if the response is not appropriate, harassment may also turn into the prelude to the main attack.
The area where Qu Jianlei and his team are located is at the edge of the attack range of a forest.
The attack range of the forest is very large. Although their movements are relatively slow, they will keep moving to reduce losses.
The place where Qu Jianlei and his team are located is not considered the main coverage area, but it is definitely covered.
Facing the approaching alien forest, the alliance military launched warships to meet the enemy.
This response is not contradictory, so I won't go into details. In short, it is just relying on ground attacks, and the effect is too general.
Most of the ships fighting are small ships. Although they are fragile, they are flexible and powerful.
Qu Jianlei and the other two just watched coldly, without any interest in helping.
Xiaohu even had time to search for some other news, "Hey, Wu Zhen and the others have left Bi Tao."
Because the news of Baozhi Star has been spread, the official is quite passive, and some refugees with means have found ways to leave.
The remaining people who fled did not agree, and they also wanted to run further. Their reason was that they had already resisted on the front line.
The army still has to pay attention to rotation. After ordinary people encounter war, it is not too much to rest and recuperate, right?
The official originally did not want to agree, but they could not let them toss and turn, so they all moved to the rear.
However, Wu Zhen was left behind because he had experience in resisting aliens.
In the end, the authorities and the military both agreed that his death in Bitao was a more ideal outcome - he would become a hero after death.
But Wu Zhen was also ruthless. Since you want to use my experience, you have to give me the power, at least let me tell the story, right?
After he told the story, the authorities felt that leaving this guy in Bitao might become a timed bomb.
This guy has a tradition of disobeying orders, from secretly completing the war fortress to later abandoning the deputy commander-in-chief of the war zone...
