741 The Beast

James shrugged: "I'm just a liaison officer." In other words, he, a small person, cannot influence what documents the US military will provide.

Ye Han nodded calmly: "I understand, Zhang Ruo, take the documents with you and let's go back!"

Zhang Ruo was stunned: "Take it back?"

"Take it with you!" After saying that, he waved his hand and left.

Ye Han bets that no matter how complicated the giant ant's problem is, even if it requires a little more explanation, the Americans will just send so many documents just to deliberately disgust people.

Since James said that domestic research institutions know about these situations, then the research institutions in Beidu will definitely be able to produce these documents. It doesn't make any sense whether they can obtain the documents provided by the Americans.

But Ye Han was very disgusted with the American attitude. Although he brought the documents with him, before leaving the base, he found a trash can and threw all the documents in, clapped his hands and turned around to leave.

To be honest, Ye Han really hates the position of liaison officer, which involves dealing with Americans. If he had a choice, he would rather bring a group of soldiers to fight against the insect swarm.

Ye Han immediately sent an application to Beidu after returning to the base. Beidu responded very quickly, but the answer from the laboratory was beyond everyone's expectations.

Major laboratories around the world have conducted in-depth research on African giant ants, and the research time is not short.

If we start from the beginning, we have to start with the domestic ant colonies. It was the emergence of controlled Chinese giant ants in China that other countries turned their attention to African giant ants, captured African giant ants and carried out a large number of

research.

All major laboratories have invariably learned from the control technology of the Chinese giant ants and focused on pheromones. However, strangely, the pheromones extracted from the giant ants have never had any effect.

Researchers have made various hypotheses about this, but the most reliable guess is that contamination occurred at some point in the refining process.

The laboratory has optimized the extraction method many times, but the extracted pheromone still has no effect.

This problem has not been solved to this day. More and more people believe that the problem is not in refining, but where the problem lies is still an unsolved mystery.

Ye Han couldn't believe this was true. With the development of science and technology to this level, we still couldn't figure out the pheromones of African ants?

If these contents did not come from official domestic documents, Ye Han would definitely think that this was a prank by some naughty kid.

It is not just Ye Han who is unbelievable. Anyone who is qualified to see this document will have the same first reaction as Ye Han.

When news from China was received, heavy rain was still pouring down at the airport in Morobeda, and the battle between humans and insects was still going on.

At this time, the airport's defense line was already in tatters. Several holes were torn open by the ant colony, and thousands of giant ants crossed the defense line.

Although multinational forces tried their best to resist, they could not stop the large number of ant colonies.

The airport defense line was set up too hastily, and neither the armored vehicles nor the bunkers had extra ammunition reserves, so they relied on the ammunition carried by the soldiers to support the situation.

When the ant colony could be kept out before, there was still a group of people transporting ammunition to various firepower nodes in the rain. However, after the giant ants broke through the defense line, the ammunition transportation was forced to stop. The soldiers had less ammunition in their hands to use less.

As for the soldiers who never had to worry about ammunition, they had to use it sparingly.

The inability to stop the giant ants led to a decrease in firepower intensity, and the lack of firepower caused more giant ants to swarm into the defense line, forming an unsolvable vicious cycle.

If the space fleet had not conducted multiple air supports, effectively reducing the pressure on multinational forces, the situation would have been even worse.

The situation ahead made Thomas very anxious, and he kept asking about the situation ahead. Fortunately, the giant ants' destructive power against armored vehicles and bunkers was limited, and the defense line could continue to hold on.

However, the ant colony has shown an unusual interest in transport aircraft. Several aircraft have had their wheels chewed off by giant ants, and several more aircraft have been accidentally damaged by our own fire. They will not fly again unless they are repaired.

Time passed by, and at about 4 p.m., the heavy rain that had lasted for more than two hours finally turned into a drizzling drizzle. The commander was overjoyed and immediately ordered the armored vehicle to release poisonous smoke bombs.

Most of the armored vehicles were suppressed by the ant piles. A few lucky armored vehicles immediately threw out all the poisonous smoke bombs. The poisonous smoke spread rapidly, and the inside and outside of the defense line were soon shrouded in poisonous smoke.

Finally regaining the initiative, the commander breathed a sigh of relief and ordered the ammunition hand to immediately replenish ammunition to the defense line, and emphasized that replenishing poisonous smoke bombs would be a priority. The soldiers who had been holding in the plane for more than half an hour swarmed out and pushed the ammunition cart back and forth.

Amid the pervasive poisonous smoke, precious supplies were delivered to the defense line.

However, they soon discovered that most of the armored vehicles and bunkers were buried by the corpses of giant ants, and supplies could not be delivered at all.

A few armored vehicles could rush out at full power, but the bunker could only stay under the pile of corpses, and the people trapped inside could not get out at all.

This result was so unexpected that Thomas reluctantly ordered the front to rescue as soon as possible. The only two armored engineering vehicles immediately took action, pushing aside the large pile of ant corpses and slowly digging out the buried armored vehicles and bunkers.

During this process, the armored vehicle is constantly loaded with poisonous smoke bombs, and a batch is fired every once in a while to keep the poisonous smoke from spreading to prevent the ant colony from attacking again.

It was not until more than an hour later that all the buried bunkers and armored vehicles were dug out, but this was only the first step. Next, the commander divided everyone into three parts.

One is to use armored vehicles as the main defense force. The task of this group of people is to rely on armored vehicles to re-establish a defense line and consolidate the position to prevent the ants from coming again.

The second is the transport personnel. Their task is to remove the materials from the plane and empty the transport plane as soon as possible.

Finally, there are the clean-up personnel. Their task is to remove all the ant corpses within the defense line, but they must clear the runway first, and then clean up the remaining ant corpses.

The poisonous smoke is aimed at African ants, but these things are not good for humans. The entire airport was filled with poisonous smoke, and the soldiers did not dare to take off their armor, and they did not even have a chance to take a bite of dinner.

It wasn't until about 7 p.m. that the cleaning team cleared away the ant corpses on the runway, but they only removed large pieces of ant corpses, and various carapace fragments were still scattered everywhere.

Fortunately, this bit of debris did not affect the plane's takeoff. The fleet of impatient planes took off immediately. Only the damaged planes remained at the airport.

Earlier, the Djibouti base had arranged for two transport planes to deliver the parts and maintenance personnel needed to repair the aircraft. If repairs are made overnight, most of the damaged aircraft will be able to return to the sky tomorrow.

In addition to aircraft spare parts, the two transport planes also carried a large number of poisonous smoke bombs to supplement the consumption of the airport defense line.
