Liu Huaidong felt bad: "Jiang Xinghua, where are the swarms of insects?"
The information on the expedition campaign is not a secret. He has naturally heard of the light bug, but isn't that thing only found on Jupiter? When did it also appear on the earth?
More importantly, the light bug shoots out thin light from its butt. This thing is so powerful that it can shoot into space on the ground. It is like playing with the orbital elevator - although the cable is strong, it cannot withstand the thin light.
For cutting, as long as the aliens set up the light bug and fire a few shots at the cable of the orbital elevator, the orbital elevator will be finished immediately.
Sixty kilometers is definitely not beyond the range of the light bug. No matter why the aliens haven't opened fire yet, the orbital elevator is in extreme danger.
Jiang Xinghua was also confused and quickly said: "The insect swarm has just landed and is near the coast!"
Liu Huaidong said urgently: "Advisor Lu, contact the headquarters immediately and request air support!"
Staff Officer Lu stood motionless as if there were roots in his feet: "The headquarters has issued a support order to the fleet, but it will take half an hour for the nearest warship to fly over."
"Where's the air force? Let our air force take off immediately, as well as missiles and warships. Give me all the weapons available!"
"yes!"
Just a few seconds later, a shrill siren sounded throughout the base.
He Xiangdong and his troops had just stepped off the city wall and before they boarded the troop carrier, they heard the siren again.
All the hairs on He Xiangdong's body stood up: "Something happened, everyone, prepare to fight!"
The alarm just now was limited to the dock and had nothing to do with other areas of the base, but this time it was different. When the alarm sound fell into a low ebb, He Xiangdong clearly heard the high-pitched alarm sound coming from several nearby areas.
Judging from the current signs, even in the best case, the alarm will be sounded along the entire coastline, and in the worst case, the alarm will cover the entire equatorial base!
The soldiers who had just come down from the wall immediately climbed back up the wall as if they were refreshed.
The engineers wearing exoskeletons on the dock were stunned for a while, then suddenly took action and ran towards the equipment warehouse in the corner of the port.
Seeing this scene, He Xiangdong's heart skipped a beat.
Not even a single insect was found around the port, and the engineers had already begun to receive weapons. This is not normal at all, okay?
With this thought still lingering in He Xiangdong's mind, the guns of the warships on the pier all started to move, with all the gun barrels raised high and pointing neatly due south.
Is this going to open fire?
Just as this idea came to my mind, I heard a low whistling sound again. When I looked back, I saw several smoke pillars rising into the sky from the missile position. Half of them took off and turned due south, while the other half turned towards the north.
fly.
Before the missile flew far, a low roar came from the sea. It was the aircraft carrier launching carrier-based aircraft.
I wipe it!
He Xiangdong's brain was completely exhausted. Missiles, aircraft, battleships...all three of the equatorial base's trump cards were used. What the hell happened? Will space battleships also come out in a while?
How did he know that the space battleship was already on its way.
The communications corps finally received the latest news and hurriedly handed it to He Xiangdong: "Commander, the headquarters informed us that the insect swarm landed not long ago. Our superiors ordered us to hand over the port defense to the engineers, prepare for battle, and wait for further orders from the headquarters."
He Xiangdong glanced at the order: "I understand, send the order, everyone is fully armed, and the engineers will come up soon, and we will withdraw!"
He knew very well that the headquarters was treating his second regiment as a mobile force, but he didn't feel disgusted at all. Instead, he felt an urge to try it out in his heart.
In order to defend Buha Island, He Xiangdong's troops are equipped with a lot of powered exoskeletons. Although they cannot be compared with powered armors, when combined with other technical equipment such as armored vehicles, their combat effectiveness is also superior.
The situation of the Second Regiment is not an exception. In this kind of troops equipped with a large number of exoskeletons, lightly equipped means that they only carry side weapons, while fully armed means that all technical equipment is ready. Once ordered, they can
Take action immediately.
Although power armor can be used casually in space fleets as if it is free, in ground troops, it is not easy to equip a set of exoskeletons. Most officers and soldiers do not dare to expect power armor at all.
Today is no longer the first few years of the mobile infantry. It is not that simple to become a mobile infantry. It is all about choosing the best from the best. Only the best warriors will have the opportunity to become a member of the mobile infantry.
Many soldiers who are interested in joining the mobile infantry have been working hard, but they have never been able to seize the opportunity. They can only settle for the second best and get rid of the exoskeleton first.
He Xiangdong was not ready yet. The warships at sea launched another batch of missiles in the north and south directions. This scene attracted countless attention. Many soldiers who did not know what was going on were upset and secretly guessed what happened.
What.
The engineers were very fast and had already rushed towards the city wall with their weapons and equipment. At this moment, He Xiangdong suddenly felt a slight flash in front of his eyes, but when he looked carefully, there was nothing there.
He blinked in confusion, but still found nothing.
The first group of engineers climbed onto the city wall. He Xiangdong was about to lead the soldiers away when a soldier suddenly raised his arm and pointed to the south: "Look, the mushroom cloud!"
People nearby who heard this sentence invariably looked into the distance, and sure enough they found a white mushroom cloud rising high due to the south.
He Xiangdong suddenly understood that the flash just now was probably the bright light at the moment of the nuclear explosion!
He didn't know how far away the nuclear explosion was from here, but judging from the position of the mushroom cloud, it was obviously an air explosion. This was the best way for nuclear bombs to explode against ground targets. The insect swarm under the nuclear explosion would definitely suffer heavy casualties.
The actual situation was similar to He Xiangdong's guess. A megaton nuclear bomb landed above the insect swarm and exploded in the air. The intense light radiation scorched the jungle and turned the giant insects in the forest into roasted insects.
Then the shock wave swept across the army, countless trees fell down, and countless giant insects flew into the sky.
Just one nuclear bomb killed a large number of giant insects. More than half of the swarms that landed on the swarm were lost, and many of the remaining ones were injured. The entire swarm was in chaos.
It is not only the giant insects that have landed, but also a small number of insect people. They are often the commanders of the insect swarm, equivalent to the grassroots officers in the insect swarm.
But the human half of the bug-man is much more fragile than the insect half. As long as the giant bug keeps a little distance, it can survive the power of the nuclear explosion, but the bug-man at the same distance is not so lucky.
, dead or wounded, only one out of ten can continue to command the insect swarm.
