The convoy stopped on the road outside the town. Xiao Yuan took his team members and quickly disappeared among the rows of houses.
Several other groups formed a circle and set up a cordon. The morning sun shone down, reflecting a golden red on the sparkling lake.
Vaguely, you can see a few dragonflies flying around on the lake, falling down from time to time, their tails tapping lightly on the lake, and then quickly flying into the air.
These dragonflies were only the size of a palm and must be a type of giant insect, but they were not the kind that threatened humans, so the soldiers simply ignored these little guys.
The conversation between Ye Han and Gu Cheng continued. Ye Han had been following the space fleet to fight against the aliens. He really didn't understand the situation in this regard. He asked curiously: "We are the only ones who have this kind of situation? What about other countries?"
"
"Of course there are, and there are quite a few of them!" Gu Cheng said, "Anyone with a high latitude and strong strength has a similar situation. Do you know who has the most serious problem?"
Speaking of this, Gu Cheng looked mysterious.
Ye Han couldn't help but be startled. This question was a bit interesting. Judging from Gu Cheng's appearance, he seemed to think that Ye Han must know the answer.
High latitude and strong... Ye Han suddenly remembered a place and blurted out two words: "Maozi?"
"I knew you could guess it right!" Gu Cheng laughed, "Mainly Siberia, Alaska, the North and South Poles, and plateau glaciers all over the world are all holy places for refugees to avoid insects."
"It's not surprising," Ye Han said, "but as far as I know, the temperature in the three months of July, August and September is not bad."
"That's what happened, but think about it. Giant insects can't adapt to low temperatures. Three months is not enough for the giant insects to grow up. So the insect swarm can only go from the south to the north. This journey is full of mountains and rivers. When the insect swarm arrives,
This place is at least in August. When the temperature starts to drop again in September, the insect swarm will have to leave. No matter how hard it is, the insect swarm will not stay for more than a month. It is simply a holy place for refugees, okay?"
Ye Han thought about the severe cold in Siberia and couldn't help but nodded: "That makes sense. We only have one month of twelve months a year to deal with giant insects. Hey, it's really a good place!"
"That's right, the global average temperature has risen. For the equator, a temperature increase of six degrees is a disaster, but in Siberia it can easily reach minus 50 or 60 degrees. This temperature difference is not a problem at all," Gu Cheng said.
Ye Han said: "So, my hair is shaking again?"
"Isn't that true? I heard that many exiled governments have entered Siberia. Today's Mao Zi is simply a piece of cake." Gu Cheng looked indignant.
Ye Han smiled and said: "There's no need for this. Even if Maozi rises again, it will be useless. Do they have an orbital elevator?"
"How is that possible?" Gu Cheng said with a mocking look, "Just them?"
"Then they have electromagnetic tracks?"
"Of course not."
Ye Han clapped his hands: "Isn't that the end? The rise of us and Washington depends on space. If they rise again, they will only gain more people and cannot gain an inch of territory. How can they build a moon with launch vehicles?
Base? It would be strange if the superiors and Washington can take them to play!"
Back then, Beijing and Washington had teamed up to snipe Mao Zi's moon landing spacecraft. This matter is still the top secret of the two countries. Even Ye Han, as a lieutenant general, was not qualified to know about it.
Gu Cheng nodded: "I'm not worried about this. The key is that once Siberia's population increases, it will be a big threat to our north."
"They must also have that ability." Ye Han said disdainfully, "It's not that I look down on them, but how many bugs were killed by the northern defense line in those years? Even now, there are many bugs going south every year, plus the ones deployed on the border
Giant ants, it’s not that easy for Maozi to go south.”
"They definitely don't have this plan now. They can't even hide. They have to deal with the aliens before going south... Oh, it would be great if they could deal with the aliens!" Gu Cheng became more and more breathless as he spoke. At the end,
Both of them lost interest in chatting. One of them lowered his head and said nothing, while the other turned his head and looked at the town, wondering why the second group had not moved yet.
Coincidentally, just when Ye Han thought of this, several gunshots suddenly sounded in the town.
Ye Han stood up suddenly and looked at the town in surprise.
He is very familiar with all standard equipment, and these gunshots are not the sounds of armored rifles at all... What happened to the second group?
While I was thinking about it, a large grasshopper with a length of more than four meters suddenly appeared on the street of the small town. There was also a man with messy hair and rags sitting on its back, holding a rifle in his hand. It looked like it.
Savage guy.
As soon as the reins in the man's hand shook, the grasshopper jumped forward with all his strength, at least seven or eight meters away.
Ye Han was immediately shocked. How could he do something like this? Does this bastard want to go to heaven? How could he sit so firmly for such a crazy insect?
Before he could figure it out, another three-meter-long black beetle crawled out from behind a house, with a savage also sitting on the beetle's back.
The beetle is much slower than the grasshopper, but it climbs much more steadily. The savage on the beetle's back kept hitting the beetle's shell with the butt of his gun, but the beetle kept crawling forward unhurriedly, fighting with the anxious one in front.
The impatient grasshoppers are put together, one is fast and the other is slow, each goes to extremes.
After the two people rushed out, they immediately spotted the convoy on the road. They were immediately frightened, grabbed the reins, turned around and tried to run away.
Ye Han waved his hand and pointed at the two wild men riding insects: "Leave them alone!"
"Yes!" Ouyang Ping and Luo Qi agreed at the same time, and the soldiers immediately raised their rifles, but before everyone could shoot, the second group had already chased them out of the town, knocking down the grasshoppers and beetles with a random shot.
The heavily injured beetle was dead on the spot and could not lie on the ground. The savage on the beetle's back was pointed at by several armored rifles, so he could only honestly raise his hands and surrender.
The savage riding the grasshopper was miserable. When the soldiers fired, the grasshopper jumped up. Unexpectedly, the soldiers shot the grasshopper to death while it was still in the air. The grasshopper lost control and fell down. The savage on the grasshopper's back
I almost fell to death on the spot. I lay on the ground and groaned for a long time without getting up.
It was only then that Ye Han discovered that the grasshoppers and beetles both had saddle-like things tied to their bodies. Judging from the purpose of this thing, it could be called a bug saddle.
The grasshopper even has a pair of stirrups on it... It's a shame these two people figured it out!
Xiao Yuan took matters into his own hands and carried the grasshopper-riding savage back to the road. The beetle savage was also escorted back to the road by others, and they were all brought to Ye Han.
Xiao Yuan said: "Captain, a gang was found in the town. There are about ten people in total. We have killed the rest. Only these two escaped. There should be no escape."
