Chapter 386 Confrontation!
Bai'er, who performed best in training, undoubtedly became the absolute core of this small-scale pilot team, and naturally had a heavy responsibility.
Facing the inquiry from the upper level, Bai'er responded in a deep voice, "No problem, sir!"
The troops rumbled in, and the earth trembled.
The drones flew high in the sky and circled, slightly replacing the global satellite function that had long been lost in this era, bringing environmental intelligence from farther away to the troops.
Occasionally, when passing by the mecha, it seemed that these small things that were like mosquitoes could be caught with a hand.
The mecha body of more than ten meters high brought Bai'er a clear view that was enough to see farther, and the earth stretched to the invisible distance through the transparent glass porthole.
As the warm white sun in the sky gradually moved westward, some vaguely visible hideous species appeared at the end of the daytime vision.
As if they had noticed the movement from afar, those little things quickly changed their previous trajectory after a visible pause.
The densely packed black bodies quickly changed on the ground like a moving carpet, which made people shudder.
However, the middle-level officers who were sitting in the command vehicle and watching this scene through the video taken by the drone breathed a sigh of relief.
During the long time of dealing with the bugs, humans' understanding of the bugs has gradually deepened-
Unless it is unexpected or forced, the bugs will never be arranged to fight in an environment that is separated from the node network of the hive. In addition to the mysterious "dominant" that has been seen before and the "brain worm" deep in the hive, the mantis worm that can act as a node creature can affect the range and the number of bugs. There are strict restrictions.
Therefore, experienced front-line officers can often roughly judge the number of "node creatures" that control them by observing the scale of worker insects and bee insects.
And only in the next moment, in the picture on the monitoring screen in the command vehicle, some of the artillery insects standing by in various places will look over.
These bugs carrying huge biological barrels on their backs instantly assigned each other's responsibilities through the node network that links all wills. After a short aiming, those biological barrels contracted their muscles, and some smaller and more accurate spore mines instantly shot out.
"Squeak, squeak~"
The monitoring screen suddenly rang with a lot of noise, and the screen that was originally displayed was broken in a row.
"Pah, squeak, squeak!"
At a certain distance from the sea of insects, the remote-controlled small aircraft sent by humans crashed one after another.
Human small aircraft can indeed carry some small weapons for long-range air support, just like the drone group that controlled the field at the end of the recruit trial.
However, on the front battlefield, small aircraft with poor flight speed and flexibility do not have much practical value facing the Zerg army with long-range units such as artillery insects, and the weapons they can carry with limited size are naturally less powerful than expected.
The benefits of using them on the front battlefield are not as high as the cost of manufacturing these aircraft, so generally only some simple reconnaissance drones are used to observe the situation of the battle and obtain information, and they are almost never directly involved in the battle itself.
However, the field of vision information provided by those crashed drones for a short time is still enough for human officers to make combat arrangements.
"The front troops charge, fire suppression!"
"The tank battalion advances, the first, third, and seventh infantry regiments follow up synchronously!"
"Protect the front troops to advance, the artillery battalion fires three rounds first!"
Orders of different levels and organizations were quickly transmitted to each basic combat unit. The tanks that were originally moving slowly roared and began to accelerate violently.
The missiles carried by the V3 rocket vehicles carrying weapons of mass destruction in the rear of the marching team also began to slowly "raise their heads" under the rise of the propulsion track.
"Swish~"
"Swish~"
"Swish~"
After a burst of white smoke, a series of snow-white missiles were launched under the thrust of the thrusters towards the sea of insects that knew that the human army was coming but had not yet completely dispersed.
The trajectory of the missile fell in the tall mecha porthole, which seemed slow but actually fast. The missile that seemed to be able to control the mecha to easily avoid the trajectory crossed the curtain of the gray-yellow earth and the blue-white sky, and fell far away on the slippery earth full of mucus.
"Boom boom boom boom!"
Small mushroom clouds rose up in an instant, and green and brown body fluids mixed with broken limbs shot out under the power of the explosion.
"Buzz~"
The thrusters of the V3 rocket car set up the next snow-white rocket again, and the next round of firepower was ready again.
The tall perspective of the mecha behind was enough for Bai Er to take in everything. The completely different perspective of participating in the battle from the last time allowed him to focus on a more comprehensive perspective.
Humans are not without the support of long-range weapons. The last time they rushed into the face as infantry, the sea of insects they encountered was the result of human missile bombing.
The number of insects is desperate and terrifying, but the brave and fearless warriors never know what retreat is.
"Scatter! Scatter!"
The Zerg artillery insects also launched a counterattack.
Human rocket cars need time to prepare weapons and refill ammunition.
Artillery insects also need the biological reaction and body function to adjust.
The cannon worm turned its gun muzzle and lowered its body. The biological cannon barrel growing on its back began to gather different attacks -
biochemical plasma cannon and spore mines.
One was aimed at armor, and the other was aimed at infantry.
Bugs don’t need to differentiate into too many types of bugs. The same bugs can also evolve different functions according to the situation they need to face.
“Target… location…”
The familiar battlefield command flowed through Bai’e’s mind, but the too fast reaction and artillery speed made Bai’e unable to remind him.
He could still react when he faced it, but it was too late to remind his teammates through the radio voice and then let them react.
However, the military didn’t know Bai’e’s ability, and didn’t need Bai’e’s reminder.
They have been dealing with bugs for many years and have their own countermeasures for all the known Zerg methods -
Hard resistance.
The light blue crystal bomb passed through the track left in the field of vision, and the spore mine exploded a green poisonous fog.
The tank’s energy storage device was destroyed in the electrical turbulence, and it burned violently on the spot and exploded instantly.
The soldier screamed in pain under the invisible biochemical bugs, and tried to rush the last meter towards the direction of the sea of bugs.
"Target... location..."
Bai'er, who was watching everything silently, suddenly felt a palpitation in his heart. A deeper and heavier voice came from the rear of the sea of insects, accompanied by a killing intent that was almost piercing his skin.
Bai'er's eyes narrowed slightly, looking at the almost invisible vast land at the end of his vision.
The mecha array he was in was at the back of the entire joint army, and the attack range of the artillery insects was not that far.
So... what is it! ?
