The command vehicle noticed this sign and immediately issued new instructions to its artillery group. The heavy artillery, which had only been silent for a short while, once again used its strong and powerful roar to send out the most powerful note.
The heavy artillery group stopped replenishing due to the nuclear explosion, and the ammunition in the vehicle was less than half of its full load, but no one could care about that much anymore. The most important thing now was how to prevent the spread of the locust swarm.
The weather is not conducive to the air force dispatching. If the artillery group cannot stop the locust swarm, the military may have to use nuclear bombs again.
The heavy artillery bombardment could only stop the giant locusts for a while, and it was impossible to kill all the scattered giant locusts. At the critical moment, Lei Zhengwu decisively ordered Long Jianguo to lead his team to leave the main position and circle around to both sides to block the giant locusts to the maximum extent.
At the same time, Lei Zhengwu once again tried to get through Beidu's communications.
A few minutes later, the siren sounded loudly at an air force base in southern Linzhou Province, and a fleet of supersonic fighter jets took off loaded with aerial bombs.
A few minutes later, the fleet of aircraft flew over the battlefield. However, there was faint light from the low clouds, and the fighter planes did not dare to lower their altitude at all.
Fortunately, the hole in the cloud created by the nuclear bomb was still there, and the aircraft group decisively dropped the bomb above the hole, and then the ground was responsible for guiding the bomb to fly to the target.
The arrival of the fleet made everyone sigh in relief. The effectiveness of aerial strikes is no joke.
However, when the bomb fell above the locust swarm, there was no earth-shattering roar. The bomb suddenly exploded at a height of only more than ten meters above the ground. However, there was neither fire nor loud noise, and only the rising fog quickly dispersed.
All giant locusts shrouded in talent lose control as if they were drunk. They fall from the sky crookedly and hit the ground heavily. Even their struggles are so feeble.
At this time, Long Jianguo's troops had not yet arrived at the mission site. Seeing this scene from a distance, everyone couldn't help but click their tongues in surprise. However, the soldiers who had fought against the giant ants all shouted the same name in unison: Anesthetic!
That's right, these aerial bombs are not filled with high explosives, but the most common ethyl acetate!
The technology of anesthetic bombs is not complicated. The military has long produced qualified anesthetic bombs. It was originally planned to be used to deal with the ant colonies in the Black Mountains. However, when the bombs were transported to Linzhou Province, the giant ants in the southern district had already been destroyed by the military.
Fang rushed into the virgin forest.
This thing has only been used a few times in the Montenegro Mountains. The military stopped encircling and suppressing giant ants. Currently, most of the anesthetic bombs are stored in the air force base near the Montenegro Mountains, just to deal with the cross-border locust swarms.
A bomb exploded just above a cluster of flames. A large amount of ethyl acetate fell from the sky. The anesthetic was suddenly ignited by the flames burning on the ground. The flames ignited the anesthetic. It seemed as if a huge torch was instantly lit on the battlefield, and the flames were more than ten meters high.
It lit up half of the battlefield.
However, more anesthetics successfully landed on the edge of the battlefield, and the diffuse layer of fog formed an insurmountable high wall. Any giant locust that dared to get into it would not be able to escape the fate of falling to the ground on the spot.
The giant locust that has lost its mobility is basically a target for guns and artillery. It doesn't matter what the military does.
The veteran couldn't help but sigh: "Why do good things always come out last? Why didn't we use this when we first started fighting?"
"That's right. Wouldn't it be better to use it sooner?" Huya said helpfully.
"Maybe it's not enough." Ye Han said, "With so many giant locusts, how much anesthetic is enough?"
The veteran thought for a while and said: "How many trains are there anyway?"
"That's right!" Ye Han said, "If you throw so much anesthetic, how many bombs and missiles will you get? No matter how high the production capacity of the arsenal is, it is impossible to manufacture so many anesthetic bombs in such a short time. Besides, are there still so many anesthetics?
Two things to say."
"That's right." The veteran laughed.
At this time, the convoy drove near a small group of fallen giant locusts. Long Jianguo observed carefully and roughly calculated the number of giant locusts: "Attention, all units, leave one vehicle here to eliminate the giant locusts. Others continue to move forward. Pay attention."
Save your shells!”
"Wait!" Ye Han hurriedly stopped, "Don't fire yet, the anesthetic is flammable!"
There are anesthetics everywhere on the battlefield right now. If you fire a shot, the effect will probably be no worse than a cloudburst bomb.
"Oh, yes, stay here for now, let's talk after the anesthetic wears off." Long Jianguo followed suit.
"That's not necessary." Xu Ruolin said, "We can't reach it when it's in the sky. If it falls to the ground, why don't we clean it up as we please? Just drive the car up and walk back and forth a few times and that's it."
"Good idea!" Long Jianguo secretly raised his thumb and immediately called the command vehicle's frequency, "Commander Lei, please request heavy artillery support!"
Lei Zhengwu frowned: "Impossible, the heavy artillery has just used up all the shells, and now you can't replenish the ammunition, you have to rely on yourself!"
"Riesling, you misunderstood. The giant locusts were knocked down by the anesthetic. What I mean is that the artillery shells are all used up anyway. It is better to send all the heavy artillery over and drive over the giant locusts. It is more efficient and saves ammunition."
Ethyl acetate also has a certain anesthetic effect on humans. However, both armored vehicles and artillery vehicles are equipped with nuclear, biological and chemical defense devices. The chemical weapons protection device can completely filter harmful gases in the air. Therefore, the officers and soldiers in the vehicle have no
Don't worry about your own safety.
Is it possible that giant locusts can bite through armor?
Just kidding, even the supersonic jaws of ants can't do this, let alone a vegetarian giant locust?
"That's okay... In this way, you continue to execute the order, and I will send the heavy artillery over immediately."
The self-propelled artillery group that had just fallen silent received the order, and more than fifty artillery trucks started their engines at the same time. The roar suddenly resounded in all directions. Then the artillery group left the highway, and then broke into pieces and drove to different areas. At intervals,
Several artillery carts drove away from the team, lined up diagonally, and pressed against the giant locusts that landed on the ground.
Large-caliber self-propelled howitzers use tank chassis and can weigh up to forty or fifty tons. The heavy body drives through the fields and effortlessly crushes giant locusts into meat pies. The dull sound of explosions comes from under the thick and heavy tracks.
It's like a naughty boy crushing a lot of tomatoes.
The size of giant locusts can only be considered small compared to giant cockroaches. Most giant locusts are about three meters long, and only a few giant locusts can approach four meters. Their body shape limits the thickness of their carapace, and locusts are never known for their thick carapace.
, that layer of exoskeleton cannot resist the crushing of the artillery vehicle.
Not only artillery vehicles, but after a while, armored vehicles joined the crushing ranks, and then wheeled assault guns that had fired all their shells, and multiple rocket launchers also entered the battlefield.
The total combat weight of the armored vehicle is about twenty tons. Although it is less than half of the self-propelled artillery, the chitin shell of the giant locust cannot resist it. The muffled sound of crushing the giant insect becomes more and more intense.
If it weren't for the fact that the nuclear explosion zone couldn't be entered, Lei Zhengwu even wanted to order these vehicles to crush the entire battlefield!
