The giant ant has good climbing ability, but its jumping ability is weak. It cannot jump to the tall crawler, so it can only climb up with all its strength.
However, the crawler tracks kept rotating, giving the giant ants no chance to climb. All giant ants that came close to the crawler vehicle were crushed under the crawler vehicle.
The giant ants do not just stupidly crawl under the car. They rush towards the tracked vehicle in groups and spray formic acid on the track. However, the United States relies entirely on the track to crush the giant ants. There are no guns or cannons. Ants in the air
No matter how high the acid concentration is, it will not explode without an open flame!
The Nile River Defense Line and the Panama Defense Line suffered a lot from this aspect. The method of crushing ant colonies with crawler vehicles may have a lot to do with formic acid.
There are also some spider ants hidden in the large swarm of giant ants. Their number is relatively small, but their role is not small. In the camera, you can see some spider ants leaping directly from the ant colony and directly pounce on the crawler vehicle to tear them apart.
Bite... But the spider ants have no other means of attack except biting. No matter how hard their jaws are, they cannot be as strong as the crawler tracks. They are eventually carried under the car by the rotating crawler tracks and crushed into a ball of broken insect mud.
Seeing this, Ye Han couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief. He didn't expect that the way to deal with the ant colony was so simple.
Any method used by humans before, aliens can quickly find a countermeasure, and they all start from the genes of the giant ants themselves, making the giant ants more and more difficult to deal with, so that humans have to fight against them.
The two lines of defense invested huge manpower and material resources, but the results were very limited.
The crawler vehicle directly uses a crushing method to deal with the giant ants. Even if the giant ants pass over the vehicle, they still have to face the U.S. military on the defense line... Judging from the current situation, there are very few giant ants who are capable of overcoming the crawler vehicle.
Another possibility is to make giant ants evolve to be strong enough to withstand being crushed by crawler vehicles, but what does it matter even if aliens do it? Americans can make the crawler design more complicated and flatten it.
The crawler tracks are designed into a triangle, and the pressure is increased by reducing the area to continue crushing the giant ants.
If the shell of the giant ant becomes harder, you can also add spikes to the tracks and turn the tracks into rolling maces... There are always more solutions than difficulties. Now that you have found this method, what is the point of continuing to improve the tracked vehicle?
Moreover, the ant colony's offensive may not be able to sustain itself.
This is not Ye Han’s obscenity, but a conclusion drawn from multiple observations and analysis!
To put it simply: the law of conservation of energy!
Giant ants are a kind of creature. Even if they are biochemical creatures created by aliens, they must follow the most basic laws of nature. They do not appear out of thin air, but hatch from eggs and gradually grow and mature.
Giant ants are omnivorous giant insects. Both animals and plants are their delicious meals. However, both the South American rainforest and the African rainforest are limited. After nearly a year of destructive plunder, the two rainforests have long been changed beyond recognition.
The vegetation has been reduced by 70%, and the remaining 30% will be consumed by ant colonies in the near future.
In order to increase food sources, ant colonies have even begun to snatch ant corpses near the battlefield. This phenomenon was discovered by the US military not long ago.
The uncontrolled predation of ant colonies has made high-level officials in various countries very worried. If the tropical rainforest disappears completely, South America and Africa will inevitably march towards desertification. At that time, the global climate will be affected by unpredictable effects. Many knowledgeable people are sad and strongly
It is recommended that governments around the world launch counterattacks.
But how can a counterattack be successful just by talking about it? Countries also want to eliminate the ant colony, but the reality is that it is simply impossible. If the crawler vehicle had not emerged, I am afraid that the two lines of defense would still be suffering under the attack of the ant colony.
persist in.
It was no fluke that the two lines of defense could hold out for more than half a year under the constant attacks of giant ants. In addition to the facilities that can be seen on the ground, the ground was also dug up and a blocking wall that went deep into the ground was poured like a dam to prevent giant ants.
Dig through the defenses.
In fact, it doesn't matter if we don't dig a blocking wall. The Panama Canal and the Sahara Desert are natural anti-ant barriers, but there are always people who can't let go.
In short, the situation on the earth is improving, and it is hoped that the ant colony will be wiped out before Europa arrives on the earth.
Ye Han knows much more than this. As a soldier, and a soldier who has reached the threshold of a senior officer, he knows much more than ordinary people.
The situation on Earth seems to have improved, but the top leaders of various countries have not been dazzled by the temporary victory. They deeply know that as long as Europa exists, the threat will exist. Even if Europa is solved and remains on Jupiter,
Aliens are still a threat to humanity.
In addition to continuing to support the two major lines of defense, various countries have also continued to make other plans, such as Beidu's westward expansion plan and Washington's shelter plan, both of which are emergency evacuation plans implemented to deal with Europa.
The implementation of the U.S. plan is unknown, but the Westward Expansion Plan has built more than a hundred underground cities in the west. The total number of people who have moved underground is as high as tens of millions. There are underground farms, underground mines and various underground industries, and there are even future underground cities.
Confirmed news is that the country is constructing an underground transportation network and preparing to connect all underground cities with underground railways.
From what Ye Han knows, if the ground is occupied or destroyed by aliens, the underground city network can persist for at least several decades while being isolated from the ground!
Even Beidu doesn't know whether the plan to advance westward is a precautionary measure or an unfounded worry, but having such a plan is better than being unprepared, right?
It is said that Beiyuezhou and Nanyuezhou are also part of the emergency plan, but without the accumulation of data for several generations, it is impossible to understand the impact of low gravity on humans.
Human beings are born and raised on the earth. Only the earth is the most suitable place for human survival. And the top management is very clear that all eggs cannot be put in one basket. Therefore, even if there is a moon base, Beidou has no idea of suspending the westward expansion plan.
.
An old general said something rude but not rude: No matter when the time comes, you must leave some roots on the earth, right?
Of course, Beiyuezhou is also the top priority of the backup plan. If something happens to the earth, at least humans can continue to reproduce on the moon. Even if the low gravity will cause uncertain effects, it is still better than the destruction of the country and the extinction of the species.
It is precisely with this development idea that Beidu has spared no effort to build the Qiongzhou launch site. Since that electromagnetic track was put into use, dozens or even dozens of spacecraft have been launched into space every day.
Taking off in a spacecraft in hibernation mode can not only greatly reduce the pressure experienced during the lift-off process, but also save material consumption on the road. Since the Qiongzhou launch site was put into use, nearly one million people have been transported to the moon. Currently, Beiyuezhou
Enough to bear the heavy responsibility of humankind's continuation.
