Knowing where the insect swarm is, the artilleryman can hit the insect swarm with his eyes closed. The cannon fires one after another, and every cannonball falls on the road accurately.
When Beidu decided to place the orbital elevator here, the entire Kalidan was already deserted. Everything in the Equator Base was built bit by bit by the engineering troops, and this road was no exception.
Although it is the only connecting channel between the port and the base, the underground engineering is the top priority of the entire base. This road is just a casual repair, the roadbed is just rammed soil, and the road surface is just a layer of rammed soil.
It is not as good as the rural roads in China.
The strength of such a road surface can be imagined. Every time a shell falls, there is a large crater. After a while, this road is as bumpy as the moon, with craters of varying depths everywhere.
Everyone knows that this road is completely abandoned, but no one is worried about this, because there are still engineers in the base, and it is just a broken road that can be repaired and used.
Moreover, it is not certain whether it will be repaired or not in the end.
The shelling was very effective. The shells blocked the insect swarm three kilometers away, preventing them from advancing even an inch.
But the swarm of insects had no intention of retreating, and kept charging forward with their necks bent.
Liu Huaidong felt that continuing the fight like this was not an option. He hesitated for a while and said: "Let the artillery stop first and try the laser cannon.
That's right, it's a laser cannon. There are only six sets in the entire base, placed in six directions on average. Only two can shoot at roads.
Zhang Chen wanted to say that he should have replaced the laser cannon a long time ago, but the words rolled around his mouth and swallowed back in his stomach.
Liu Huaidong is a relatively traditional soldier. Although his ability to accept new equipment is not weak at all, his tactical thinking is a bit behind the times. No matter what situation he encounters, the first thing that comes to mind is always those
Traditional machine gun cannon.
Not only weapons and equipment, but also tactical ideas. If it were Zhang Chen's command, he would have ordered the artillery to stop shooting and move the insect swarm closer before attacking - the new equipment in the base is not only the laser cannon, but also two
A set of infrasonic cannons and two sets of directional microwave cannons are powerful weapons for dealing with insects. However, the range is relatively short, and the insect swarm must be brought close to be effective.
It is precisely because of this that these new weapons have not received much attention from Liu Huaidong, and have not been able to play their due role... Well, it cannot be said that, because since the base was built, there has been no precedent for large groups of giant insects to attack, sporadic
The giant insect can't even get through the minefield, let alone get close to the base.
Liu Huaidong's order had been conveyed, and the sound of cannons that had been ringing suddenly stopped. Many soldiers who did not know what was going on thought the battle was over, but they did not expect that the insect swarm was quickly approaching the base.
Liu Huaidong always believed that it was not a good thing for the insect swarm to approach the base, so he did not give the insect swarm a chance to continue approaching, but ordered the laser cannon to fire immediately.
At this time, the distance between the insect swarm and the base was still two kilometers, and two lasers as thick as a finger, invisible to the naked eye, swept past the ground close to the left and right.
The running swarm of insects seemed to have pressed a stop button. The giant insects at the front were cut open from the front by lasers and fell to the ground one after another.
The giant bugs behind continued to move forward, and the cross lasers swept back again, and another batch of giant bugs fell to the ground.
After scanning several times in succession, the alien finally realized that something was wrong and ordered the insect swarm to stop advancing.
Liu Huaidong couldn't help but sneer, is this a place where you can come and leave whenever you want?
The laser continued to sweep across, and not a single giant insect that rushed into the range of the laser cannon survived.
This is not because the laser cannon is so powerful, but because the giant insects have no concept of escaping from orders. The aliens ordered the insect swarm to stop, but did not order the insect swarm to evacuate. So the insects suffered a tragedy. Rather than saying that the insect swarm was being defended,
To annihilate them by the military might as well be to let aliens trap them to death.
At this time, the aliens had realized that it was impossible for the insect swarms to attack the base from the front, but they still had no intention of stopping the attack and continued to send insect swarms to attack.
This time it is no longer a frontal breakthrough at a single point, but an all-out assault from all directions.
It wasn't until the aliens launched a full-scale attack that Liu Huaidong realized that the base was not as strong as he imagined, because the attack came not only from the ground, but also from the underground and the sky, a true all-round three-dimensional attack.
It was very busy now. The swarms of insects on the ground, the servants in the air, and the various weapons in the base were firing wildly. The ammunition consumed every minute was calculated in tons.
As for the underground, haha, Liu Huaidong didn't care about it at all, and only arranged for a part of the troops to be on guard.
The aliens' tactics are indeed three-dimensional, but they are a bit too taken for granted. Their idea should be to use ground and sky attacks to attract the attention of the defenders, then open a gap underground, and finally attack the base.
But the aliens did not expect that when Beidu built the equatorial base, they thought of this. Not only did they build a reinforced concrete protective layer more than ten meters thick underground, but they also set up a buffer zone in the protected area. Even if the giant
After the insects burrowed through the concrete and rushed into the base, they had to face layers of iron railings and a thirty-meter buffer zone.
You must know that the Equator Base was not built casually. The first batch of underground cities were simply hollowed out underground, as long as people could be accommodated in them, and nothing else was considered.
However, as humans have gradually deepened their understanding of giant insects, the structure of underground cities has also been improved. The military has used all its more than ten years of experience in building underground cities on the equatorial base. It has various anti-insect measures. Want to break through the base?
Is it that easy?
However, the determination of the aliens is very strong. The insect swarm participating in the attack does not care about life and death, and it is clear that they want to accumulate victory with insect lives.
After this battle, all the officers and soldiers in the base gained a new understanding of the madness of aliens.
Liu Huaidong later learned that it was not that the aliens were too crazy, but that all human bases in the tropical areas had been captured by aliens, leaving only the Equator base still standing amid the onslaught of the insect swarms, almost becoming an alien
Star people have a thorn in their flesh.
After so many human bases were taken down, the aliens couldn't believe it. In the end, they couldn't capture this place, so the aliens mobilized their army and launched one round after another of crazy attacks on the equatorial base.
The minefield was leveled, but the insect swarm did not stop; the laser cannon overheated, but the insect swarm did not stop; infrasonic cannons and directional microwave cannons crisscrossed the battlefield, killing all the giant insects close to the base and roasting them until they were cooked, but the insect swarm still fought to the death
Don’t retreat.
Liu Huaidong was well aware of the solidity of the base. He never believed that aliens could break through the base, but the attack of the insect swarms never stopped, and the sound of gunfire in the base never stopped. The mountains of ammunition were visible to the naked eye.
Speed consumption, according to the current consumption speed, the base can only last for three days at most!
I've explained the whereabouts of Feng Jin and Sun Mo, okay? It's very simple to think about it... I planned to finish writing this paragraph today, but why can't I finish it as I write more and more?
