Chapter 481 The Beetles Behave Strangely
The performance in the city at this time made Chi Nan feel very strange. Although the originally prosperous city was not as prosperous as before, there were still people walking around, which Chi Nan could see.
After all, this was a war period, and it was understandable that there were few people on the streets.
However, where did the soldiers who were supposed to guard the city go? There were no soldiers on the city wall, no one was patrolling, and a large number of beetles around seemed to be protecting the city. This was too strange.
In this way, if someone controlled the beetles, it might be more convincing. But Chi Nan would not believe it. If the Governor's Office could really control the beetles, they would definitely not hide it and would have shown it off long ago. Besides, Chi Nan did not believe that the people in the Governor's Office would leave the places threatened by the insects on the border alone.
Similarly, the approach of Chi Nan's army also made these beetles discover it. Many beetles began to riot, and even a small group of beetles ran towards the direction where Chi Nan was.
"What should we do? Should we attack?" Chi Nan asked Numisi next to him. After all, this was Numisi's home.
Numisi was even more confused. Even though she was a commander with a talent for command, she was just a girl after all. Seeing this situation, she felt a little overwhelmed.
Hearing Chi Nan's words, Numisi became even more entangled. "It's not okay not to attack, but if we attack, it will be bad if the stimulated beetles attack the main city. The current situation of the main city can't stop the attack of those beetles at all."
Yes, all the soldiers didn't know where they went. It would be strange if they could stop these beetles.
After a long time, Numis gritted her teeth and said, "Never mind, although I don't know why those beetles don't attack, if they are not controlled, then there is something that makes the beetles afraid."
"If it is the first case, then the people who control the beetles will definitely come to deal with our threat and will not rashly divide their troops to attack the city. If it is the second case, the attacked beetles are even less likely to go to dangerous places."
Numis is worthy of being Numis. She can calm down and analyze the situation so quickly. Chi Nan gave Numis a thumbs up. He really didn't think of these. "In this case, then attack."
At Chi Nan's command, the spider tanks below started first. But the fastest ones were the airships in the sky. The airships flew over quickly, followed by a bombing. Around the city, among the beetle swarms, large areas of fire soon burned. "It's a pity that there is not enough time. If there are beetle poison bombs, these beetles will be dead."
Such a dense insect team is very easy to attack. Below, some black shadows flew up. Looking closely, aren't they the flying beetles before? But some flying beetles actually flew out of the city.
It was so strange that Chi Nan had a bad feeling in his heart, but he couldn't figure out what it was. "Attack those flying beetles first and don't worry about the others." Chi Nan said again.
Orna, who had this idea, did not object and continued to command the airship formation to attack. As the highest commander of the airship, Orna, other formations naturally had to obey her orders.
The bugs below were also cleaned up by ground troops. Before they got close, a series of shells came over and smashed the bugs one by one. Then some wind cannons flew over and cleared the field again. That's right, among the spider tanks, a group of spider tanks using wind cannons have appeared, although the number is not large.
These precious wind cannon spiders were firmly protected in the middle, used as the main cleaning of the enemy soldiers and attacking powerful units. Usually, they mainly rely on other ordinary spider tanks in combat.
The beetles continued to run forward, but they did not collide with the spider tanks, but with a large number of bush warriors. Then, that kind of difficult but restrained fighting style once again let the beetles know what it means to be uncomfortable.
The spider tanks in the rear specially choose places where beetles are densely packed to attack, and they don't care about their own people. Anyway, the bush warriors were originally used by Chi Nan as consumables.
As long as they can protect themselves and expand the results of the battle, it doesn't matter if some bush warriors are destroyed. However, those spider tanks are under the control of the soldiers. One soldier can control ten tanks, so the loss of bush warriors can be minimized. The soldiers are obviously more clear about the location of the targeted attack.
Soon, Chi Nan found that there were not many flying beetles flying this time, with a number of less than one thousand. It seems that the ones he encountered before were the main force. Fortunately, he encountered them earlier. If he encountered them here, God knows how much trouble it would be.
More than one hundred airships presented a three-dimensional cross attack, and the machine guns were launched one after another, so that these beetles were shot down before they could get close. When there were only a few beetles left, there were still few who could get close to the airship. Those who were close were directly solved by other airships with one shot, leaving none.
During the entire battle, even the wind cannon was not used. This was because Chi Nan was worried that the wind cannon would destroy the main city. He was here to rescue, and he didn't want to bombard it with one cannon.
"Are there no more flying beetles? Help the ground troops and destroy all the beetles as soon as possible." Looking down, the beetles still had no intention of attacking the city, which made Chi Nan feel even more weird.
It's just that now is not the time to think about these things. You will know everything when you go in later. The airships began to bomb around. The flames continued to burn. The airships' technology of using incendiary bombs to bomb is getting more and more sophisticated.
The fire spread and burned everything around. Chi Nan looked at the buildings that were burned around and shook his head helplessly. The area near the main city is not a wasteland. There are many towns here.
Although people have left, the buildings remain here. This attack may have caused many people to suffer heavy losses. "Forget it, the old ones will not go and the new ones will not come. After becoming refugees, it will be easier to accept the leadership of Hongshaling." After thinking about it, Chi Nan quickly put aside the previous idea of compassion.
The battle did not last very long. One reason was that the beetles were dense, and the other was that the number of beetles was small. Finally, and most importantly, the strength of the army he brought this time was too strong.
In less than an hour, from the initial charge to the final cleaning of the battlefield, everything was over. Now, there is only one city that behaves very strangely, still standing quietly on the ground.
