The rat that jumped up was no longer afraid of the power grid, but pounced on it without hesitation, and even bitten the metal wires on the power grid crazily.
The rats below also followed one after another.
More and more rat corpses piled up in front of the power grid, and the electric sparks caused by the short circuit exploded like firecrackers.
As there are more and more short-circuit power points, the lethality of the power grid has begun to gradually decline.
After the rat pounced on it, it climbed farther and farther up, and the pile of corpses grew higher and higher.
This is a zombie siege tactic.
Zhou You and Deng Tao saw through the mouse's plan almost at the same time.
Zhou You shouted in the command channel of the Zhou family's combat unit: "The rats are planning to break through the power grid defense line by force. Everyone strengthens the offensive and strangles the rats from the rear. Except for rockets, all long-range weapons should empty their ammunition as soon as possible.
, and then use melee weapons to attack the rat swarm, doing your best to cause maximum damage. Leave a driver with a high enough driving level on the big G! Once the rats break through the power grid and break into the courtyard of the substation, use the big G to directly knock open the iron gate of the yard.
, others enter from the main entrance and fight inside!"
On the other hand, Deng Tao's analysis is more complicated.
Deng Tao gave two possibilities.
He believes that as the rats continue their fearless attacks, either the pulse generator supporting the power grid will overheat and malfunction due to continuous high-power discharge, or there will be too many grounding points, causing the voltage to continue to drop and the rats will pile up corpses.
Enter the courtyard.
Although the substation building has strict reinforcement measures, once tens of thousands of rats break in, it will never be able to withstand it for long.
Therefore, Deng Tao's order also ordered everyone to step up the offensive at all costs. At the same time, he also ordered the drone troops and airship troops to immediately transform into transport teams, preparing to help personnel parachute into the substation courtyard and strengthen the defense line.
At the same time, Deng Tao also asked the original left-behind personnel in the substation to give up guarding the entrance of the cave, retreat to the back of the ground floor door, which was the only entrance and exit of the substation building at this time, and close the door first.
All Deng Tao's plans are based on delaying time as the first priority.
Now, tanker trucks circle the abandoned cotton mill.
A water pipe stretched out from the oil tanker, pouring gasoline into a line like water.
In addition, there are hundreds of single-person airships coming here from all over the county, flying on their own, or attached to vehicles, such as vehicles and three-wheeled electric vehicles.
Unfortunately, because the tanker truck was temporarily modified and was traveling at a slow speed, the fire attack encirclement targeting the cotton spinning mill had not yet been fully formed and would take at least ten minutes.
If the substation is quickly breached and a large-scale power outage occurs throughout the county, then the army of rats in the cotton spinning mill will immediately be dispatched.
All the previous preparations were in vain, and Lelai County would immediately lose this perfect opportunity to exterminate at least 300,000 rats.
Yes, as drone scouts flew a full circle over the cotton mill, the estimate of the number of ambushes was updated again.
More importantly, if this army of 300,000 rats really took advantage of the dark night caused by the power outage to invade the county, the consequences would be disastrous.
Even if humans can recapture the substation later and repair it quickly, they will inevitably suffer heavy and irreversible losses.
The large amount of supplies in the county and the population of nearly 100,000 must be reduced by at least half on the spot!
Since then, the battle between the two sides has officially entered a fierce stage.
The rats ignore the attack on the anti-theft power grid.
The human soldiers at the rear also quickly used up most of their disposable weapons, and then rushed forward with weapons such as double guns, double knives, long spears, scalpels, utility knives, etc., and slashed and killed them crazily behind the rat swarm.
Zhou You here, after exhausting all the throwing weapons on the Langya 2 airship, Zhou You even forced Gao Zhanying to drill the airship through the intertwined network of heavy wires and fly to the sky above the substation.
Afterwards, Zhou You gave the order and led all nine other elite soldiers on the airship to parachute except the pilot Gao Zhanying.
Before parachuting, Zhou You issued a death order.
You must wait until you have landed less than five meters above the ground before you can open your parachute.
The reason is very simple. The jumping point chosen by everyone now falls in a direction that can avoid the crisscrossing wires below.
However, at the moment of opening the umbrella, the opening of the umbrella surface cannot fully balance the forces, so there will be a process of diagonal flight and drift in a random direction.
No one can predict which way they will drift when the time comes.
If you open your umbrella in advance, there is a high possibility of wires being hung up.
It would be fine if the low-voltage wires were hung, but if the high-voltage wires were hung, there might not be any need for rats to attack, and humans themselves could cut off the power in the county first.
With such determination, ten people, including Zhou You, jumped from the airship one after another.
Zhou You's umbrella was perfectly timed and fell into the small courtyard of the substation smoothly.
Gao Jianguo's performance was similar, only a little late, and the impact of landing was relatively large. Fortunately, he did a good job of releasing his force and rolled over after landing without any injuries.
Seven other people also landed alive. Some were uninjured, but others were slightly injured due to landing too fast.
There was only one person, and I don't know whether he opened his parachute too late or there was something wrong with the parachute itself. It was not until he was about to land completely that the parachute barely popped out from behind him, but the man almost fell freely and hit the ground.
The landing height of everyone is about 20 meters, six stories high.
Even though the comrade-in-arms didn't turn into a pulp after being slapped on the ground, he didn't even struggle and there was no more movement.
He was killed in action.
Zhou You and others silently glanced at this comrade. They had no time to feel sad, so they could only quickly cut off the ropes around them, turned around and ran towards the main entrance on the ground floor of the substation.
In any case, no one opened the umbrella in advance out of fear, and no one was a coward.
In addition to the ten-man airborne troops traveling around, all human drones have been transformed into transport aircraft at this time, and are sending more and more elite soldiers to the fence.
On the Zhou family's side, the core members such as Yuan Yike, Luo Xun, Jiang Qianyun, Tang Dahe, Sun Yingjun, and the Gao brothers have all basically arrived.
In addition, some more senior and relatively outstanding melee and long-range team members also rushed in on police drones.
In just a few minutes, nearly fifty Zhou family combatants gathered in the courtyard.
About two to three hundred people from the county government's combat troops also came.
A total of more than 300 people rushed here at this moment, basically expecting to be a death squad.
But the situation was critical and there was no time to select one by one, so they all signed up independently and went to the drone position to wait for transportation.
At this time, there were more than 300 combatants in the Zhou family, and more than 50 people among them took the initiative to join the death squads. The high proportion was worthy of the county government's long-standing care for the Zhou family.
Without any dispute, Zhou You automatically became the commander of this death squad of more than 300 people, and established video communication with Deng Tao, who was commanding from outside, to keep in touch at all times.
Everyone stood in a row in front of the substation building, looking up.
The piles of rat carcasses were getting higher and higher, with only half a meter left at most before they could completely cross the barrier of the electric grid on top of the wall.
Here, Deng Tao also told Zhou You in the video communication that it would take at least eight minutes to set up the trap at the cotton mill.
In any case, the more than 300 suicide squads inside must continue to hold on for more than eight minutes.
The drone fleet is still trying to transport more people, but there are not many people queuing in the transportation area.
It wasn't that the other combatants were afraid of death, but that those people themselves were completely trapped in the intertwined battle lines in the process of chasing the rats. It was impossible to retreat for a while, and there was no need.
Therefore, the final number of death squads in the substation courtyard will reach approximately 400 people.
These four hundred people did not have a single armored vehicle, not a piece of heavy equipment, and only a very small amount of long-range weapons and ammunition. At this time, they were all concentrated in the hands of Luo Xun and a few people with exceptionally accurate marksmanship.
Everyone is calmly waiting for the power grid to collapse.
At this time, everyone was slowly adjusting their breathing, calming down the psychological and physical impact of the previous ten minutes of fighting.
Zhou You is still standing at the front, and there is still no touching mobilization.
He only gave the people behind him a glimpse of Yuan Ting Yue Zhi's back.
At the back of the garrison, Jiang Qianyun was leaning against the main door of the substation building, telling the people inside: "No matter what the battle situation is outside, you must not try to open the door to support without our order.
Don't try to rescue people outside. Your mission is very simple, which is to hold the last line of defense no matter what."
The slightly choked voice of the man left behind at the substation came from inside, "Okay, I understand."
At this time, on the four walls of the substation, there were more than ten rat ladders hanging from the top of the walls.
The Zhou family's combat team members are very familiar with this rat ladder and have even reserved it for a long time.
In the past, long-range weapons were used to break down the escalator more than once, but now the long-range weapons on the outside of the wall have been exhausted, and various armored vehicles cannot rush to this position at all.
Now humans can no longer stop the zombie offensive of the rats.
Everyone could only rely on their bloody courage to kill desperately from behind.
Most drone teams and airship teams also stopped flying.
Without throwing weapons, height advantage has no effect.
The airship pilots also had their own choices. Some also drew their swords and fought into the rat swarm, while others tried to drag the airship on the ground and break into the rat swarm, and then used lighters to ignite the hydrogen balloons in an attempt to burn a few more rats to death.
Unfortunately, the burning speed of hydrogen balloons is too fast. It looks bluffing, but it burns out in the blink of an eye. The effect is even far less than that of incendiary bombs.
But there are also people who are completely crazy and even rush in with a hydrogen storage tank on their shoulders. Then they open the valve of the hydrogen storage tank in the rat pile, push the lighter battery into it, and ignite it.
Those who are lucky enough will have a melee fire-breathing weapon.
But there are also unlucky ones that directly cause the explosion of the hydrogen storage tank, but the explosion also takes away a wave of rats.
The casualties of the human army began to rise rapidly in a very short period of time.
Although the rats died more and faster, they still had a huge numerical advantage.
