At midnight, the half-asleep Ye Han was woken up by the sentry. He immediately jumped up, woke up in the shortest time, opened the top cover and got out of the armored vehicle: "What's going on?"
"Insects!" the sentry said concisely and pointed to the west while answering.
Ye Han activated the night vision function, but saw no trace of the insects, but he knew that the sentry would never joke about such a thing, so he immediately activated the telescope function, and finally saw a few blurry insect shadows under the moonlight.
When a person is still, his eyes are more sensitive to moving targets, but when he is moving, it is just the opposite. If Ye Han had not stood still, he might not have been able to spot the wolf in the distance.
When the thermal imaging function is switched, only a blurry shadow can be seen on the screen.
Ye Han couldn't use his eyesight enough to barely see the outline of the wolf. Ye Han, who had been in close contact with the wolf, knew the size of the wolf very well. Through the ranging function of the telescopic lens, he roughly judged that the distance between the wolf and the convoy was about two meters.
kilometer.
However, the wolf insect seemed to have seen the brightly lit power plant in the distance, and its moving speed was gradually accelerating.
Ye Han immediately asked for Bian Ge's communication: "Captain Bian, we found that the insect swarm is approaching, can you ask the power plant to turn off the lights?"
"I'll give it a try." Bian Ge agreed and replied shortly, "No, it's still under construction and it's a critical moment."
"Almost done?"
"I don't know, I just told you to let me know when it's over." Bian Ge felt helpless, "Get ready to stop it."
"Understood." Ye Han slammed the roof of the car and shouted loudly, "Get ready to fight, Anzi!"
"arrive!"
"Rush forward, others are on standby."
The soldiers quickly prepared for battle. Ye Han commanded the armored vehicles and bicycles to rush towards the wolf in front.
The two sides faced each other, and the distance quickly shortened. After entering the range of one thousand meters, Ye Han decisively ordered to fire, and the machine gun made several booms, knocking down several giant insects in front.
Everyone's hearts were tense, ready to deal with a large group of wolves at any time, but half a minute passed and no more wolves appeared.
Ye Han was puzzled, and after calling up the satellite surveillance image, he discovered that it was not that there were no wolf worms behind, but that the swarms of worms were too scattered, and the distance between the two waves of worms was too far.
Moreover, the batch of bugs that were just eliminated was not the first batch. There was another batch of wolf bugs on the north side of the position that was about to cross the defense line.
Ye Han immediately sent the satellite images to other soldiers: "Chi Wei, take a car and go north!"
"Yes!" Another armored vehicle broke away from its position and rushed north under the cover of night.
Xiao Yuan volunteered: "Captain Ye, I'll go there too. It's too difficult to rely on Chi Wei's car alone."
"Go ahead, disperse and fight on your own." Ye Han not only agreed to Xiao Yuan's request, but also sent out all the armored vehicles, "Team Bian, the frontal defense pressure is very high, please be ready for battle."
The defensive position deployed by Ye Han is only over a hundred meters wide, but the defensive width on the entire west side of the power plant is at least more than two kilometers. The insect swarm is too scattered, and the pressure of the defenders in a single direction is not great, but the entire west side of the power plant
Taking all the defense into consideration, it cannot be defended by just ten armored vehicles.
"Don't worry, no problem!" Bian Ge not only ordered the two squadrons on the second line of defense to prepare, but also ordered the troops to disperse in advance and launch defense over a distance of up to three kilometers.
The two squadrons only have more than 20 armored vehicles, and only one armored vehicle can be allocated at an average of 150 meters. The density is a bit low, but the density of the incoming insect swarms is very low. This formation is enough to deal with the wolf insects.
With the range of the machine gun, it is no problem to extend the distance between the armored workshops to 500 meters. Therefore, even if the distance between vehicles on the first line of defense is as wide as 300 meters, the possibility of missing the Wolfworm is very low.
However, there will be more and more insects in the follow-up, and the density will become larger and larger, maybe reaching the level of the airport confrontation. By that time, even if all three squadrons are gathered together, they may not be able to stop the insect swarm.
Bian Ge couldn't help but feel a little impatient.
The military arranged more than just mobile troops to defend the west side of the power plant. According to the military's plan, the defense of the nuclear power plant was the focus of the entire anti-insect plan. The troops guarding the power plant were also the troops preventing the eastward advance of the insect swarm.
However, due to limited transportation capacity, it will take some time for subsequent troops to arrive at the power plant. Otherwise, how could the military hand over all the defense of the entire power plant to Bian Guxing?
Although the combat capabilities of the armored soldiers are strong, they cannot withstand the intensive charge of the insect swarm.
Bian Ge wanted to remind the power plant to organize a defensive position immediately, but he hesitated for a moment and decided that it would be better to do less than to do more.
As long as the colonel in the power plant is not an idiot, he should know what to do at this time.
After figuring out the joints, Bian Ge withdrew his attention and paid attention to the real-time images captured by the satellite.
There are more and more wolves approaching the first line of defense, and the scattered cannon sounds not long ago have gradually become denser.
Bian Ge reminded worriedly: "Ye Han, don't stand firm, withdraw when it's time to withdraw!"
Ye Han replied: "I understand, don't worry."
How could Bian Ge be so relieved? Before the first line of defense opened fire, the eastward-moving insect swarm was still very scattered. But after the cannon was fired, the insect swarm seemed to have heard the signal to gather, and invariably concentrated in the direction of the cannon sound.
The insect swarm Ye Han and others faced was no longer a group of just a few, but a swarm of dozens or even hundreds of insects. Although the machine cannon fired at a fast rate, it took time to aim, and it was no longer able to cope with the rush forward.
swarm of insects.
But how could Ye Han let the insect swarm break through the defense line so easily? All the personnel on the first line of defense had already lifted the roof and set up their rifles, just waiting for the insect swarm to approach.
The effective range of the armored rifle exceeds one thousand meters, but the farther the distance, the lower the hit rate. Therefore, Ye Han never issued a shooting order, but used machine guns to consume the effective strength of the insect swarm. It was not until the insect swarm rushed within 400 meters that Ye Han could
Roar and fire.
Sparse gunfire rang out from the defense line, but the bugs in the night vision goggles swooped down after the gunfire.
Everyone is a veteran, and they know how to save bullets without Ye Han's reminder, and know how to fight to get the best results. Although the insect swarm is still advancing slowly, it is not that easy to break through the four hundred meters distance.
And Ye Han discovered a very strange phenomenon. The wolves were running hard, but their speed seemed to be much slower than during the day, and their flexibility was much worse, as if they had been hit by a halo of slowness.
Although he majored in biology, he had a girlfriend who studied biology. He immediately realized that the wolf's slowness was probably related to temperature!
He once heard Bai Xiaoting mention that cold-blooded reptiles are very dependent on the ambient temperature. They are very clumsy when the temperature is low, and they regain their flexibility when the temperature is high. Therefore, crocodiles like to bask in the sun very much.
