Zhuang Bo turned his head and saw Ye Han's dull face. He patted Ye Han on the shoulder curiously: "What are you thinking about?"
Ye Han suddenly came back to his senses, twitching his lips and replied: "Nothing."
"Don't you miss your wife?" Zhuang Bo showed a smile that all men understand.
Ye Hanxin said: You are so old, why are you still making such irrelevant jokes? You are simply disrespectful!
But these words can only be said in the heart, and no flaws can be revealed on the surface: "I am thinking about the situation ahead."
Zhuang Bo glanced at the screen: "What did you come up with?"
Although the space fleet's support was timely, destroying the ant ball did not mean the end of the battle. It only relieved the pressure on the multinational forces. Whether they could stop the giant ants depended on whether the multinational forces worked hard enough. The battle at the airport was still going on.
We have to fight, and it won't be over for a while.
"I miss those giant African ants." Ye Han said.
Zhuang Bo was very surprised: "I thought you had come up with some new tactics!"
Wei Chengfei asked curiously: "What happened to the African ants?"
Ye Han organized his words and gestured with his fingers above his head: "Ants rely on their antennae to smell. With such heavy rain and so much smoke, the smell should have been covered long ago...
"
Zhuang Bo and Wei Chengfei looked at each other and saw the surprise in each other's eyes.
It has been so many years since the insect plague broke out. Even people who knew nothing about insects before the plague are now half-insect experts. Not to mention professional soldiers like them who have been fighting with bugs. I dare not say that they know all insects very well.
At least there is no shortage of knowledge about common insects.
The battle was tense before, and they just felt that something was wrong. It was not until Ye Han pointed out the smell that the two of them realized that the performance of the African giant ants was too exaggerated. In this case, it is impossible for ordinary giant ants to find the right one.
Attack direction, so how do giant African ants determine the correct direction in heavy rain?
Zhuang Bo was hesitant and hesitant in his heart, but he didn't show it at all on the surface: "Ye Han, what do you think?"
Ye Han smiled bitterly: "I think there are several possibilities. One is that African ants have a mutated sense of smell and are very sensitive to odors. Even heavy rain cannot stop them... This possibility is relatively high. Isn't it said that evolution is to adapt to the environment?
It rains every day in the Congo. Ordinary ants are afraid of rain, but giant ants are not. It is not surprising that they have evolved the ability to move in the rain."
Zhuang Bo nodded: "That makes sense, what about the second one?"
"Second, aliens have modified African ants to make them more adaptable to the rainforest environment. If giant ants can go out 24/7, wouldn't they be ready-made sentinels?"
Wei Chengdong agreed: "This is also true. Aliens are all experts in playing with genes. It doesn't take much to modify the genes of giant ants... If you want to prove it, it is actually simple. Just see if the giant ants come out at night."
knew?"
Generally speaking, ants are active insects during the day and hide in their nests at night. If the African giant ants also come out at night, the possibility of being modified is relatively high.
"Is there a third one?" Zhuang Bo asked again.
"Yes!" Ye Han nodded, "If...I mean if, if aliens have a way to control giant insects, it is also possible that aliens secretly command giant ants, which can also explain why giant ants can move in the rain.
freely."
Zhuang Bo frowned and said: "What do aliens use to command giant ants? Smell? Brain waves? Or telepathy?"
"Smell, it's what ants rely on to move, so it's most likely." Wei Chengfei said.
Zhuang Bo frowned deeply: "Isn't this coming back again? If they didn't mutate or evolve, they shouldn't be able to smell anything in the rain...right Ye Han?"
Ye Han nodded: "Yes, that's the theory."
The implication is that without a strong sense of smell, no matter how loud the smell is, it is useless. How to distinguish the most useful one from the various smells is a piece of cake.
"Smell!" Zhuang Bo knocked on the table unconsciously, "What did the Yankees do? Isn't it just pheromones? We can control the Chinese giant ants, but can't the Yankees control the African ants?"
Ye Han said: "The Americans must have studied African ants, but I don't know what they have studied. If there were pheromones to control ant colonies, they would have come up with them long ago... Hasn't there been any research on African ants in China?"
Wei Chengfei looked at Zhuang Bo, who shook his head: "I don't know if there is."
"What about applying to the country to send a batch of equipment and a few experts to extract pheromones in Africa?" Ye Han thought of the past, "When I was in Fuyun, I changed the train into a message
Vegetarian Factory.”
Zhuang Bo said: "Theoretically it is possible, but it is best to contact the Americans and ask about the situation. If there are any special reasons, even if experts and equipment are sent from China, it will be useless."
"Can Americans tell the truth?" Wei Chengfei asked.
"Can't you just ask? Ye Han, you are the liaison officer, you have to be responsible for this matter." Zhuang Bo said.
"Yes!" Ye Han nodded, "I'll do it right away."
After saying that, Ye Han left the command center, called Zhang Ruo and went straight to the US military base.
James, who was also the liaison officer, received Ye Han. The two of them exchanged some useless nonsense before Ye Han explained the purpose of his visit and hoped that James could provide some information in this regard.
James did not respond directly, but said that he did not know the situation in this regard, but could help apply to his superiors.
Ye Han felt awkward. Why should he help apply to his superiors earlier? The African operation is led by you Yankees, and those who are dead are either Americans or allies of the United States. At this time, if you still push back and forth, you are just eating shit.
Big one?
James had a calm personality and said a few polite words to Ye Han before leaving the reception room and asking his superiors.
It was originally a very simple question, but the two of them waited for half an hour and did not see James come back. As a result, Ye Han and Zhang Ruo began to mutter in their hearts, unable to guess what James was up to.
Ye Han not only had to remind himself to be patient, but also to comfort the grumbling Zhang Ruo from time to time. In this way, the two of them waited for more than an hour before James returned to the reception room with a lot of documents in his arms and kept talking.
He said sorry and put the documents on the table that were almost falling to the floor.
After the documents were scattered and piled into a small pile, James rubbed his hands and said something.
Zhang Ruo translated: "He said that the information on giant ants is here, and he doesn't understand what the document says... He also said that American research institutions and Beidu's research institutions have a cooperative relationship, and these information are also available in Beidu."
Ye Han was dumbfounded, and then frowned: "Are you kidding me? So many?"
