Fortunately, the Wuling Hongguang van went to Lichong first and forcibly opened a passage.
Although the mouse between the two rows of wheels was not crushed, it still moved slightly to the side due to instinct.
Of course, the reinforcements would not miss this God-given opportunity and decisively rushed in along this passage.
Seeing this, the bombardier in the van learned the tactical cover without any teacher, adjusted the direction of throwing the battery bomb, and used flames to further open up channels for subsequent reinforcements.
These more than a thousand people stepped on the rat's corpse and kept moving forward. It turned into a sharp sword and plunged straight into the heart. They also rushed to the main entrance of the ground floor, covering the exhausted and almost everyone injured death squads behind them.
At this time, Shen Ling finally controlled the humanoid robot that successfully carried the flamethrower and rushed in on the No. 9 electric go-kart.
Although Go Kart No. 9 does not have wheels as big as off-road vehicles, it does carry a humanoid robot weighing 100 kilograms. It is not fast, but it still crushes the corpses of rats and rushes to the bottom of the steps.
Then, Shen Ling controlled the steering of the No. 9 kart, and then turned its body some more.
She raised the flamethrower.
Then, her right hand suddenly made a fist.
The five fingers of the robot's right hand contracted.
The other four fingers were slightly jammed, but the index finger that reached into the flamethrower trigger in advance successfully pulled the trigger.
At this time, the flamethrower has been adjusted to the lowest output mode. The shooting distance is not long and the impact is not great, but a dazzling fire snake can be seen spraying out and shooting directly to the ground.
Shen Ling controlled the robot to slowly rotate its body and let the flamethrower draw an arc of flame on the ground.
This flame arc is composed of viscous heavy oil that burns for an extremely long time, completely separating the rats on the inside from the outside.
Since then, the war situation has been completely reversed, completely tilted in the direction beneficial to mankind.
The thickened oil in military flamethrowers burns for a very long time, and the flame can last for at least several minutes.
And if a rat tries to force its way through, it will inevitably be stained with thickened oil and then burned alive.
Although Zhou You was completely exhausted at this time, he did not completely shrink to the back of the formation. He still stood very far forward. While adjusting his breathing, he used his newly recovered strength to draw Lengzi and stab forward again.
He raised his eyes and looked ahead.
At this time, dozens of drones were hovering over the rats with gasoline spray cans transported from the box that Shen Ling had previously moved.
The distribution pattern of these drones is relatively close to that of rats, and they only avoid Wuling Hongguang, Iron Man combat robot, Big G and a small area in front of the steps.
Deng Tao's shouting sounded from one of the drones. The content of the shouting was only one word, "Spray!"
Subsequently, the combat members holding watering cans hanging below dozens of drones started to use the watering cans frantically, as if eager to empty the watering cans in just one second.
These fine gasoline particles sprayed out slowly float to the ground under the pull of gravity.
The spray range of the gasoline was well controlled, and thanks to the almost windless environment, these gasoline particles did not come into contact with open flames as they fell to the ground.
As the gasoline falls, the drone continues to rise.
The humans on the steps continued to shrink their defense lines.
The remaining personnel behind the main entrance on the ground floor of the substation finally received Deng Tao's clear order. They quickly opened the door and pulled the wounded man who was leaning outside the door straight inside.
Shen Ling also turned the direction of the No. 9 electric go-kart and went to the side of the steps where there were fewer rats and no gasoline was sprayed.
The big G driven by my traveling uncle was parked there.
The Wuling Hongguang van also restarted and headed towards Big G.
When the humans were almost hiding, a soldier on a high-flying drone thought for a moment, made an independent decision, lit the rocket, and shot towards the previous area where gasoline was sprayed.
In an instant, the small square turned into a sea of fire.
Since the flames were mainly composed of semi-atomized gasoline particles, the flames did not burn for a long time, and the flames were extinguished in just a few dozen seconds.
But in just a few dozen seconds, the temperature in most areas of the square rose to an astonishing height, and almost all the oxygen was exhausted.
The heat wave even brought a tornado and strong winds to the sky.
Fortunately, the single-person airship and drone in the air had already evacuated in time, so there were no casualties.
At this time, there were more than 10,000 rats in the courtyard.
Most of the rats' bodies were covered in flames, and they were seriously injured by a single blow.
Although there are no flames coming from the location of Wuling Hongguang and Shen Ling's Iron Man robot, they can still feel the extremely high heat wave.
Shen Ling lowered the robot's head slightly and pointed it in the direction of the big G.
She knew that her traveling uncle was in the car.
At this time she was still feeling lucky.
However, Shen Ling used the firelight to see several large rats appearing on the dashboard of the car, looking at the sea of fire around them.
Shen Ling had the answer in her heart.
For the first time, a victim appeared among the traveling direct relatives.
Not only Shen Ling saw this scene, but the uncle and uncle who were traveling in the Wuling Hongguang van next to her also saw it.
In an instant, everyone burst into tears.
At this time, the wandering eyes were also trying to look in the direction of the big G through the sea of fire.
But the sea of fire blocked his vision.
He can't see anything.
At this moment, the sky behind the big G suddenly rose into even more scorching flames, turning into a fiery red sunset that lit up almost half of the night sky.
That's the direction of the abandoned cotton mill.
"The real fire is also burning! Good! Great! Everyone, we succeeded!"
A smile subconsciously appeared on Zhou You's face, and he shouted.
Beside him, Deng Tao's roar also sounded on the mobile phones of the people left behind at the substation, "Everyone! The cotton spinning mill has been set on fire! The encirclement has been formed! The air force is pouring gasoline on the cotton spinning mill from high altitude! In half an hour, we will bury it An army of rats, at least three hundred thousand! All the sacrifices have meaning!"
Hearing this, Zhou You finally couldn't bear the exhaustion anymore and sat down on the ground.
When the personnel left behind at the substation saw him fall, they rushed up and dragged him inside.
If it was a few seconds ago, Zhou You would have struggled hard. He wanted to stand on the front line until the end, but now he didn't want to resist, so he just lay down and was dragged to the rear.
Zhou You was thrown into the crowd of people who were resting against a cabinet.
He looked around and saw many familiar people around him.
Yuan Yike, Luo Xun, Jiang Qianyun and other core combatants of the Zhou family are all here, and everyone is just tired, and no one seems to be missing an arm or a leg, which is good news.
But Zhou You frowned immediately, "Where is Gao Jianguo?"
Gao Zhanying, who was squatting in the distance, trembled when he heard this, then raised his head and looked at Zhou You.
Tears had already flooded the man's face.
Zhou You was about to ask again, but Jiang Qianyun, who was sitting next to him, also wiped away her tears and gritted her teeth and said: "My combat experience is too lacking. Previously, I forgot that if an over-limit person explodes with all his strength, his physical energy will be exhausted.
I rushed too fast, rushed too deep, and exhausted myself when surrounded by rats. Gao Jianguo sacrificed his life in order to snatch me back from the rats."
Zhou You was stunned.
He shook his lips, wanting to say something to comfort Gao Zhanying.
But in the end he just shook his head helplessly.
Now, the so-called comfort means nothing.
This is war, how can people not die?
In fact, you don't need to take a careful count to know that the number of Zhou family casualties in this war will never be less than double digits.
Among the more than fifty Zhou family suicide squad members he brought in, at least more than fifteen were dragged away in front of him.
It's just that during the previous fight, he didn't have the energy to notice who was being dragged away again.
At this time, the fighting outside the room continued.
There were approximately two to three thousand rats trapped inside the line of flames drawn by Shen Ling.
There are still more than a thousand human warriors outside who are still able to move.
It won't be long before the rats outside will be cleared away.
During this period, the cotton mill will be completely ignited and buried in a sea of fire.
Of those 300,000 rats, not many will survive, and they will be cleaned up by humans who arrive later.
In addition to wiping out 300,000 rats in one go, Zhou You also judged that at least most of the smartest wild rat kings in Lelai County should have been buried here.
The rats in the entire county were absolutely devastated.
From a strategic point of view, this battle had the effect of deciding the fate of the entire Lelai County, and at least gave Lelai County a breathing space of more than a month.
"We won this battle."
With all kinds of complicated thoughts, Zhou You tilted his head and leaned on Jiang Qianyun's shoulder beside him and fell asleep.
He is not unconscious.
He's just too tired.
When Zhou You opened his eyes again, it was already eight o'clock in the morning the next day.
He slept for more than twelve hours.
Although Zhou You had been mentally prepared, being dragged outside to attend the funeral as soon as he woke up still made him unavoidably sad.
Last night, the number of people killed in the Zhou family reached 30, and a total of 400 people went out to fight, so the total death rate was about 7.5%.
The proportion is slightly lower than that of the county team.
But, these are thirty lives after all.
Among them were Gao Jianguo, whom Zhou You already knew, and his uncle, who he didn't know at first, but probably had some guesses in his mind, but didn't want to think about it in detail.
Just like last time, this funeral was kept simple. Thirty coffins were neatly placed in the courtyard, and thirty large pits had just been dug.
The relatives of the martyrs are carrying the bodies of the martyrs one by one.
The traveling grandparents had already fainted from crying and were resting aside.
My aunt was also completely weak at this time, and she stood aside blankly looking at her husband's body which was completely mutilated and could not even be put together into a human shape.
The placement of my uncle's remains was basically done by Zhou You's mother, Dong Lan, and my uncle, my two brothers and sisters.
Logically speaking, Zhou You, a blood relative, should also be involved in this matter, but both the Zhou family and the Dong family of her natal family felt that his rest should not be affected and that he should be allowed to have a good sleep.
When Zhou You woke up, a group of people were clumsily trying to nail the coffin with a small hammer.
However, this modified small hammer now weighs more than 100 grams. It is indeed difficult for ordinary people to swing it with one arm, and it is also easy to hit their hands.
Therefore, it can only be made into a long-handled sledgehammer, which can be used like the old hammer, but the force is difficult to control, and two other people are required to fix the nails with clamps, one on the left and one on the right.
Every time it is hit hard, the coffin will shake more or less violently.
