At noon, the dark clouds dispersed, the breeze blew the white clouds, and the warm sunshine shone on the earth.
The soldiers from Qingtang are directing the servants to drag the insect corpses back to the underground city. There, the fate of these insects is to be torn into pieces. All places that can be eaten must be picked out. No piece of it can be wasted, even if it is blown up by a landmine.
There were holes all over the body, and it was a huge piece of flesh.
Outside the exit of the underground city, the Marine Corps escorted the science and education team onto the off-road vehicle. Ye Han was the last to get on the vehicle. He turned around and waved goodbye to Director Qu. The convoy slowly left and embarked on the journey to Qingtang.
Ye Han felt a little disappointed because he thought of many faces that he had met before but never saw again after separation.
In this chaotic era, no one can control their own destiny, and every separation after an encounter may be an eternal farewell.
He is not the kind of person who is sad about spring and autumn. He just suddenly felt something in his heart, so he quickly came out of the sad mood.
At this time, the convoy was still running in the wilderness, but the road in the distance could already be seen. Looking up into the distance, there were unnamed plants everywhere, instead of the sky full of yellow sand and the vast Gobi desert a few days ago.
Ye Han couldn't remember the last time he saw such a scenery, and his mood was like the weather turning from light rain to clear weather.
Unfortunately, a beam of light across the sky ended Ye Han's good mood. Gu Cheng was so frightened that he almost jumped: "What is this?"
Ye Han said: "This is our laser. To put it more technically, it's called space-based firepower to strike the ground. To put it more bluntly, it's to use a laser to fight bugs in outer space."
He already knew what happened to the Ningwuguan. Although he didn't know which battleship the laser came from, he was certain that the target of the light beam must be a light bug somewhere.
It's quite interesting to say that the battle on the ground has ended long ago, but the battleships and light bugs that were covering the battle are still fighting. Even if the light bugs get into the ground, the battleships have to find ways to force the light bugs out.
There is no other way. Air supremacy has always been the focus of competition between the two sides. Insects are flying in various ways, and humans are attacking insects in various ways. The tug-of-war has been going on for several years. Each side has the upper hand, but there has never been a real winner.
.
At the moment, it is just a matter of the fleet seizing the enemy's flaw and taking the opportunity to deal a certain blow to the enemy... It is not yet clear how many light bugs can be killed, but Ye Han feels that the determination above is very strong. If possible, the fleet will definitely be willing to kill the light bugs.
The area where it appeared was plowed hard.
Everyone knows that aliens have a lot of bugs and humans have a lot of weapons and ammunition. When Gu Cheng heard Ye Han say this, he knew that he had made a big joke, and the expression on his face was somewhat embarrassing.
, but he still had a helmet on his head, so no one could see his expression.
The convoy continued to move forward until the sun set in the west before entering the outskirts of Qingtang. During this period, lasers appeared in the air dozens of times. Gu Cheng went from being curious and surprised at the beginning to becoming accustomed to it, and finally became completely numb.
From the map, Qingtang is very large, but after the convoy entered Qingtang, it discovered that there was still endless grassland ahead.
Xiao Yuan was so surprised that he stood up and tried his best to look into the distance, but he couldn't see the shadow of the city: "Where is his grandma's house? Where is the Qingtang?"
Ouyang Ping said: "There is someone over there, just go and ask!"
Xiao Yuan turned around and saw that there were actually a few people on the grassland in the distance. He activated the telescope function to zoom in and found that those people were all armed with weapons. They couldn't be said to be armed to the teeth, but they had all kinds of rifles and pistols. The tallest and strongest one even had a backpack on his back.
With a machine gun!
Those people also discovered the convoy. Not only did they show no signs of hiding, they also waved at the convoy.
Xiao Yuan couldn't help but wonder: "So enthusiastic? Are they mercenaries from Qingtang?"
Gu Cheng said: "Maybe."
"How is it possible?"
Gu Cheng twitched his lips: "Those who have a bottom line are called mercenaries, and those who don't have a bottom line are bandits. With such chaos in the wasteland, who knows how to make a cameo all of a sudden?"
Xiao Yuan was immediately speechless.
Ye Han smiled slightly: "Be polite, didn't you see people greeting you?"
"Oh, I got it!" Xiao Yuan chuckled and waved to the mercenary.
The mercenaries stood on a low slope, and the convoy drove directly over the low slope without stopping.
As soon as he drove past the broken roof, Ye Han saw an oversized snail at the bottom of the slope. It was crawling slowly with four tentacles, two long and two short. Wherever the snail passed, the grass higher than the knees was gnawed by it.
There are only a few left.
The soldiers have been in space for a long time, and they have never seen this before. They all stretched their necks and looked fresh.
Ye Han chuckled: "Interesting, we killed not only 10,000 but also 8,000 bugs. I have never seen such slow bugs!"
Gu Cheng glanced sideways at Xiao Yuan: "You are thinking too much, this is raised in Qingtang..."
"What did you say?" Ye Han almost thought he heard wrong, "Why do you keep this thing in Qingtang?"
Now it was Gu Cheng's turn to be surprised: "Don't you know? This is the largest giant snail ranch in the country. It produces the best quality meat snails in the world. The meat is of good quality. The canned beef you eat is this kind of snail meat!"
"Can a snail be considered a cow?" Ye Han almost stopped spraying. He really didn't know that the so-called canned beef was snail meat.
The rationing system has been implemented across the country for more than ten years, and even the top military units have been greatly affected.
In his memory, there was indeed canned meat in the fleet's supplies, but it was either insect meat or fish meat. As for pork and beef, don't even think about it. These livestock have already been destroyed by insects, and maintaining the population is problematic and impossible.
Kill and eat meat.
But after taking over the orbital airborne troops, Ye Han found that the troops' supplies had improved a lot, and unexpectedly discovered canned beef.
However, the quantity of this kind of can is too small, and every time it is distributed, the soldiers will eat it up in the shortest time. Therefore, he only saw this thing in the supplies, but never saw the real thing, let alone tasted it - he
I thought it was Bei Yuezhou using bioengineering methods to create beef cattle, but I never thought it was a snail!
Gu Cheng was even more surprised than Ye Han: "You really don't know? No way, we Qingtang Snails have a great reputation. Those foreigners can't even ask for help even if they cry and shout. How could you not know?"
Xiao Yuan said helplessly: "It's wrong. We all know it. Only the captain doesn't know it."
Gu Cheng looked at Ye Han and his eyes were filled with curiosity: "Captain Ye, is there something I don't know about?"
"Military secrets cannot be disclosed!" Ye Han said stiffly.
"Oh, then I won't ask." Gu Cheng didn't want to be exposed to any form of military secrets, so he stopped the topic very smartly.
