On the other hand, before the insect disaster, the number of motor vehicles in the country was close to 300 million, and countless refined oil products were consumed every day.
The pest disaster not only destroyed a large number of vehicles, but also caused many private car owners to stay at home. The consumption of refined oil in various places was greatly reduced. Even if most of the country's refining capacity was destroyed by the asteroid, it would still be enough to ensure the oil supply for the army.
However, the power supply in various places is a big problem. Although air defense troops have been deployed at nuclear power plants and important water conservancy hubs, the power grids all over the country cannot be protected at all. In the recent period, the power supply in various places will inevitably be affected by asteroid impacts, even if After the asteroid impact is over, it will take a lot of time to restore power supply facilities.
Let ordinary workers risk being attacked by giant insects during construction. The danger is not that great!
Buildings in various places must also be comprehensively reinforced.
Thinking of this, Brother Yi is very lucky. The urbanization process in recent years has achieved remarkable results. There has been a large-scale civil engineering work all over the country, and there are modern reinforced concrete buildings everywhere. As long as they are qualified buildings, the strength of the exterior walls will not be too low.
Such a building cannot protect against enemy artillery fire, but protecting against biochemical giant insects is 80% not a problem. The safety hazards that need to be considered are mainly concentrated on the doors and windows.
The glass door on the facade of a shopping mall may not be able to block giant insects, but the security door of a residence is certainly no problem. Then you only need to strengthen the wide window and change it into a narrow window that giant insects cannot pass through, and it is possible to ensure indoor safety.
This is very simple. You can install anti-theft windows directly or build a wall outside the window.
Buildings that directly use glass as exterior walls are a little more troublesome, but the strength of tempered glass is much higher than ordinary glass. If it doesn't work, you can directly replace it with bulletproof glass.
In this way, industries related to pest control can recover to a certain extent, which can barely stimulate domestic demand.
But what should we do about the food problem? Spring plowing has just begun, and if we start a full-scale war with the biochemical giant insects, this year's food production will continue to be affected. How can we feed so many mouths across the country?
Thinking of this, Brother Yi, whose mood had just improved a little, fell into inextricable distress again.
However, Brother Yi quickly put the unclear issues behind him and handed over the mature issues to the think tank for discussion, and at the same time issued an order to the military to completely clean up the insect trees.
It doesn’t matter whether the function of the insect tree is to cultivate biochemical giant insects. In short, we should clear them out first.
However, the military's operation was not so smooth. Several areas in the country where white eggs were concentrated had been bombarded to pieces by artillery. There was no need to waste manpower on sorting them out again. The remaining white eggs were scattered across the country, close to cities and villages. White eggs are easy to clean up, but there are also many white eggs that fell into the deep mountains and old forests. It is extremely difficult to find these white eggs.
What's even more troublesome is that the impact of asteroids is far from over. It will happen again every three to five. More and more white eggs fall to the ground. Every time a group of asteroids falls, the military will be so busy that they are overwhelmed.
Far more than the military is affected, civilians are also disturbed. Air defense sirens sound every once in a while, and even Beidu is no exception.
Radio and television stations and various communication software in various places now not only report weather forecasts, but also meteorite forecasts. Areas that may be hit by asteroids are forecast every day.
Every time a swarm of asteroids reaches the earth, the biological laboratory is forced to suspend the experiment, and all personnel withdraw into a safe underground bunker. When the impact is over, when will they come out again.
The laboratory has been hit by meteorites frequently, but the building complex where the laboratory is located is built to the standards of a fortress, and asteroids never hit the ground in one piece, so no substantial damage has been caused.
Later, the experimenters got tired of being like mice when nothing happened, so they simply ignored the meteorites and just stayed in the laboratory to conduct experiments.
The laboratory not only conducts its own experiments, but also regularly communicates with biological laboratories around the world to report experimental progress and learn about the latest experimental data.
Through the continuous efforts of major laboratories, humans understand more and more about insect trees.
An American laboratory found that the liquid in ordinary white eggs is only a high-energy nutrient solution, which does not contain puffed viruses or insect embryos, and is completely suitable for human consumption.
In order to prove this point, a foodie named Timmy in the American laboratory actually found a frying pan and cooked the nutrient solution himself. It is said that except for the taste, there is no defect in other aspects.
Later I found out that the bad taste was due to Timmy's terrible cooking skills.
This news immediately detonated the world. Countries that originally wanted to eliminate white eggs instead collected white eggs and used the nutrient solution in the white eggs to feed their citizens.
However, only ordinary white eggs can be eaten. Once the white eggs come into contact with insects, they will absorb the genes and expanded viruses in the insects. The expanded viruses will rapidly multiply in the white eggs, making it impossible for humans to eat the white egg nutrient solution.
However, white eggs take root immediately after contact with insects. You can judge whether the white eggs are in the edible stage just by looking at their appearance, thus avoiding the extraction of nutrient solution containing puffed viruses.
Of course, not everyone can handle the ring of tentacles outside the white egg, it requires some necessary skills.
What was once abandoned by humans has suddenly become very popular. Every time an asteroid falls, foodies from all over the world will rush out.
It's just that the number of insects living on the earth far exceeds that of humans, so only a small part of the white eggs can be eaten by humans.
Moreover, most people cannot accept food from extraterrestrials, which also limits the consumption of white eggs among humans.
The European Biological Laboratory built a batch of rooted insect trees and conducted a comprehensive study on the insect embryos in the canopy. Unexpectedly, they found that the insect trees were not culture tanks. There were no developing giant insects in the canopy, but instead they were filled with insect eggs.
, once the eggs mature, the tree crown will shrink and burst, using the power of the crack to send the eggs far away.
Analysis believes that oviparity is one of the most basic characteristics of insects. It is normal for insect trees to cultivate insect eggs. If an insect tree only cultivates one biochemical giant insect, it is equivalent to changing the reproductive method of insects. Something strange may happen.
Forecasted impact.
Also at the European Biological Laboratory, researchers found that the rapid growth of insect trees comes from the strong plunder of the surrounding environment. Wherever insect trees take root, other types of plants cannot survive at all. They will only dry up and rot, and finally become
Insect tree nutrition.
And this situation also exists between insect trees. If the root position of two insect trees is too close, the weaker one will be robbed by the other one, and eventually become the nutrition for the growth of the stronger one.
