Ye Han knew very well that the insects themselves had no intelligence at all. At most, they had some instincts. With such a large insect swarm, it was absolutely impossible to complete such a complex attack by instinct alone.
In other words, there must be a bug man hiding in the dark and commanding the swarm. If the bug man responsible for commanding can be found and killed, the swarm will lose its command and may even fall into chaos.
But compared to bugs, bug-men are really inconspicuous. They can be well hidden no matter where you drill, and it is simply unrealistic to find them.
The pace of the insect swarm is getting faster and faster, and the heavy heavy light insect is also moving forward step by step with the charge of the insect swarm. The heavy light insect is tall and heavy, and the insect legs are thick and long. When it moves, it seems to be slow, but in fact it is no faster than the flying insect.
How slow is the giant insect?
Not long after, the insect swarm rushed into the battlefield filled with charred insect corpses. A little more than a kilometer away, there was the fortress building on the edge of Funing.
At this time, the insect swarm suddenly exerted force and accelerated rapidly.
The Heavy Light Bug following behind was just the opposite. It stopped two kilometers away. The transmitter on its back was aimed at Funing and suddenly shot out a stream of thin light.
The thin light fell accurately on the fortress building, over and over again, and over and over again... Ye Han's eyes twitched when he saw it, this was the rhythm of demolishing the building!
If the charging insect swarm in the front is the infantry, then the heavy light insect swarms behind are the artillery. The insect swarm's tactics are the most obvious coordination of infantry and artillery.
If the heavy light bugs bombard him for a while before the insect swarm charges, it is equivalent to the artillery preparation before the charge.
Ye Han couldn't help but sigh, the tactics of the insect swarm really meant that as many humans as there were, there would be as many humans as possible. If only a wave of incendiary bombs had been thrown at this time, none of these insects would be able to escape, and they would all have to go back to grandma's house.
Even if the Funing direction did not notice such an obvious fighter opportunity, the other troops responsible for supporting it should not miss it. What was the reason for not seizing this fighter opportunity?
The heavy light insect's "bombardment" was very effective. The outermost fortress building was scarred under the constant cutting of the thin light. Before the insect swarm could rush closer, two fortress buildings had already collapsed.
All humans who saw this scene felt heavy in their hearts. Although everyone knew that the number of times the fine light could be emitted was limited, such a strong fortress was destroyed by the heavy light insect. Can the fortress buildings block the insect?
At this time, the defenders' large-caliber mortars also fired. The longest range of this thing is more than eight kilometers. The distance between the heavy light bugs and Funing is only a little over two kilometers. It is completely possible to use artillery fire to eliminate the heavy light bugs at targeted locations.
The scene not long ago reappeared on the battlefield. Mortars and heavy light bugs were fighting across the battlefield. However, the mortars were direct firepower, all mounted on a safe rooftop; while the heavy light bugs were direct firepower, no matter how dense it was.
Counterattacks can only be made on the top of the fortress.
One side was covered with artillery fire regardless of the cost, and the other side was desperately counterattacking but could not hit them. The situation was extremely unfavorable to the heavy light bugs. After a while, the artillery group killed dozens of heavy light bugs.
But mortars are not guided weapons after all. Hits depend not only on aiming, but also on luck. It is rare for one shot to hit. In most cases, several mortars fire at the same time to increase the number of hits.
Rate.
As a result, the sound of artillery did not last long, and the shells were fired so much that the bombardment had to be stopped.
This wave of bombardment was all aimed at the heavy light insects, and not a single shot fell into the flying insect swarm. When the bombardment ended, the insect swarm also rushed to the edge of the city.
According to the military's plan, the insect swarm should have rushed directly into the short street between the fortress buildings, and then been attacked head-on by the defenders. They had to retreat after suffering heavy casualties.
But what about actually?
The swarm of insects did not rush into the short street at all, but quickly climbed up the empty fortress building and climbed up the wall step by step. Only a few giant insects facing the short street rushed in directly.
Originally, the guns on the defense line were guarding the short street. After discovering the abnormal attack route of the insect swarm, the command center immediately adjusted its deployment and sent additional manpower to the rooftop to prevent the insect swarm from breaking through from the rooftop.
The straight-line distance between the rooftops is more than ten meters. For most giant insects, this distance is no different from a natural chasm. But for springtails, more than ten meters is really not a problem. They can just jump over it.
Faced with all this, all the defenders, including the special service team, were on heightened alert and were ready to open fire at any time.
Intense gunshots came from downstairs. It was the machine guns in the firepower point that were firing. Countless bullets were like invisible flame whips, hitting the giant insects rushing into the short street from all directions and angles.
As soon as the insect rushed into the short street, he was hit head-on by a hail of bullets. One second he spread his legs and ran quickly, and the next second he fell down and turned into a rolling gourd. It was like there was an invisible wall on the short street.
None of the walls could break through the fire blockade of the defenders.
However, the swarm of insects did not just rush in and out. They quickly changed their tactics. Some giant insects continued to attack the short street, attracting the firepower of the defenders. Others quickly climbed up the outer wall of the fortress building and rushed towards the third wall.
Second line of defense.
Ye Han had never thought about this situation, but the defenders' firepower was distributed very scientifically. The firepower originally concentrated in the direction of the short street immediately dispersed and launched a frenzied sweep of the insect swarm in all directions without blind spots.
Looking down from the rooftop, the gap between any two fortress buildings is filled with flying bullets. The bullet beam fired by each machine gun is like an extending bullet chain. Many bullet chains are combined together to form
An invisible and deadly web.
Due to the angle problem, bullets rarely stick to the wall after hitting the wall. In most cases, they ricochet. Many bullets fail to hit the bugs. Instead, they become bullets and then fall on the bugs.
Of course, the ricochet is not powerful enough to penetrate the insect's carapace. The real fatal threat is the direct hit of the bullet!
Intercepting firepower is always aimed at the bug at the front. Often several or even a dozen machine guns fire at a giant bug at the same time. A series of bullets are fired at the bug, and dozens of irregular bullet holes appear on the bug's body. Some warheads appear on the bug's body.
Breaking through the insects, causing countless splashes of blood.
However, not all bullets can penetrate insects, so the blood spatter is much less than the holes.
Seeing this scene, Ye Han quietly breathed a sigh of relief. He really didn't know that the defenders had such strong firepower. They only used rifles and machine guns to block the attack of the insect swarm... There is definitely no shortage of heavy weapons on the defense line, but there is so much steel.
There is no need to expose the firepower point of deploying heavy weapons if you use it on the edge of the knife and kill the bugs with rifles and machine guns.
According to the current intensity of the insect's attack, it will not even be able to approach the defense line in a short period of time. Except for mortars, other heavy firepower will be of no use for a while.
