0113 Pouring out of the nest
On the edge of the outer edge of the city, there are 130 meters in height and more than 600 meters in diameter, and the appearance is a huge hideous steamed bun, the outer wall is a red-black nodule-like flesh wall, and the intricate pipes inside can be seen from the gap, and rows of large and small entrances and exits are densely arranged up and down.
Countless Zerg who can't see the edge are coming in and out, looking busy and extraordinary. These large insect nests surround three sides of the city, and there are thirteen of them, and there are countless insect nests of all sizes in front of and behind them.
On the ground, swarms of knife insects that had been assembled were lined up at the front, mixed with some insect phalanxes that had never been seen before.
One of the puppy-shaped insect phalanx was also quite eye-catching, through the military's propaganda brochure, Qin Chong quickly understood that this was a kind of insect specially used for siege, and the acidic saliva spit out of his mouth was very corrosive, comparable to aqua regia, and the two types of troops were mixed, filling the visible space on the ground, and there was no end to it.
Behind the array of knife insects is a huge number, clustered in the middle of the phalanx of thunder beasts, each phalanx has about hundreds of thunder beasts, the whole body is full of smoke and electricity, it is vicious, each thunder beast has more than a dozen sword insects as guards around it.
With so many thunder beasts dispatched at one time, it seems that the Zerg are determined to win this battle!
Behind the thunder beast, there were also a phalanx of zergs, one of which was smooth but had the luster of armor, and the appearance was like an earthworm, but there were more than a dozen pairs of anti-joint limbs and feet on their bodies, and they had five-petaled split mouthparts, wriggling in bends and bends. There are also groups of small units scattered around.
There are also many fortress-like creature structures scattered around the hive, each with its mouthparts open to the sky, this kind of structure has never been seen before, but it can be estimated that it must be a long-range offensive weapon based on the degree of its proximity to the hive.
Just looking at this scene makes the scalp tingle.
High in the sky, in addition to the hellfire birds, iron-winged insects, there are many flying insects with unnamed names flying in teams of high and low, according to the rules that the higher the level of the zerg, the smaller the number, and the more space it occupies, the hellfire birds are only ranked third, but the number can be five or six hundred, divided into more than ten teams, and the leaders are all giant hellfire birds with second- and third-level mutations.
There are two other flying classes above the Hellfire Bird, one is a brown centipede that looks like it has twelve more pairs of wings, the edge of the wings as thin as a cicada is sharp serrations, which glow with a cold cold light under the slight but high-speed vibration, and a pair of huge sickle-shaped mouthparts at the corner of the lower mouth to protect the staggered canine teeth.
Countless feet and feet are all anti-articulation, with long brown bone spurs, and the knot-like body is about twenty meters when it winds and coils, and the appearance is indescribably disgusting and terrifying, Qin Zhong named it "Flying Cipede", there are not many of them, only five or six of them are like this on the largest insect nest.
Above it was an eyeball-like creature, not large, only half a meter in diameter, very fast, never staying in one place, and unable to see clearly when the telescope was adjusted to the maximum magnification.
Taking advantage of the fact that the formation of the Zerg had not yet been fully opened, the military first made a move, and the nineteen huge mobile missile vehicles that had already been deployed lifted their camouflage, and the Sky Wolf-III medium- and short-range anti-aircraft carrier missiles erupted with a blazing tail flame, which had already been launched, and the target was directly aimed at the largest insect nest in the direction of due south.
The Sirius-III medium- and short-range anti-aircraft carrier missile itself is aimed at the aircraft carrier's large size and relatively slow action, and it has developed weapons and equipment that can inflict a fatal blow on the aircraft carrier, and it is appropriate to use it here.
It uses a vertical launch, which can adjust the angle of attack, and after ten seconds, nine have risen into the air, and with a slight adjustment, it has formed a perfect circle, and quickly approaches the large hive due south.
Judging from the speed of the missiles, it can be judged that the military wants to ensure that nine missiles hit the target at the same time, and that the military is cautious in attacking only one target with so many missiles.
The long tail flame with a shocking whistling sound instantly crossed the space, hitting the target, a sky blue wave rippled, layer by layer from the top of the hive to the ground, nine missiles disappeared one after another, as if entering a different space, suddenly from our world into an invisible world, the line of sight appeared faulty, the hive remained unmoved.
The attack failed, and all the people who were waiting for it couldn't help but be depressed!
However, this did not have much effect on Qin Zhong and many people who had seen the soul-like tremor of a nuclear bomb attack, the hive was not unbreakable, and the key was that there were not so many missiles to consume its protective shield.
Within a few seconds after the attack, Qin Chong's spiritual thoughts clearly felt a sharp and subtle shock wave passing through his body, but it had no effect on people, and others didn't seem to feel it.
Qin Chong immediately felt the unusual meaning, the growth of spiritual thoughts was the most difficult, and it would generally increase with the promotion of cultivation level, so Qin Chong's spiritual thoughts had not improved these days, but at this time, he could detect this unusual fluctuation, which could only indicate that there were unknown creatures appearing on the battlefield.
It's just that this fluctuation disappeared immediately in a flash, and Qin Zhong couldn't be sure what this fluctuation meant.
After the human missile attack, the insects then signaled an attack, and groups of blue-black knife insects began to dispatch, and the action of such a huge scale shook the earth.
Like a rolling flood that overwhelmed everything, swept away all obstacles that dared to stand in the way, and buildings collapsed with a bang, stirring up a sky of dust, sand and dust.
Qin Chong woke up like a dream at this time, thinking of his nest, his eyes hurriedly swept towards his community, but he found that he had already been swallowed by the figure of the insect nest.
That's all his family background, now it's all explained there, Qin Chong's killing intent towards the Zerg instantly rose by twenty percentage points, and it exploded all of a sudden!
The knife worm walked to the shooting belt, and the light and heavy weapons of the first wall of the human began to exert force, and the heavy machine guns spat out long tongues of fire, covering the firing surface of this hundred and fifty meters.
Rockets sprayed orange-red tail flames straight to the densest places of the insect swarm, forming an effective barrier and disrupting the rhythm of the Zerg charge.
There is a large area covered by flamethrowers in the vicinity, as long as it is touched, it will not be spared, none of the fish that have slipped through the net can escape, and the nose can also smell a pungent chemical smell like garlic, this smell can often be smelled in the laboratory for Qin Chong, this is the smell of white phosphorus.
White phosphorus incendiary bombs are banned in the International Weapons Convention because they are too cruel and inhumane, and their flames are stained with the words "maggots of tarsal bones", which are just right for the Zerg now.
All kinds of weapons are as urgent as a storm, shocking the eardrums, and many of the bullets used by human beings are not ordinary ammunition, but special armor-piercing bullets, explosive bullets, and the effect is remarkable, but unfortunately there are not many of these ammunition, all of which have been made by the Academy of Sciences recently.
The attack of the knife insect was resolutely attacked, the severed limbs and stumps were sprinkled all over the open space, the green insect blood was gurgling, and the dying hiss of the knife insect was piercing, Qin Chong's blood was boiling, and he wanted to rush to the front line immediately, but the instructor had a black face, frowned and said: "Nonsense, whose army is this?"
The second lieutenant hurriedly reported: "The first wall in front of me is the 302nd Division of the B Army, and there are not many experienced veterans. ”
Seeing that Qin Zhong was also confused, the Tibetan leopard explained to him: "Fighting is about rhythm, and a blow like them, which they did their best at the beginning, can't last long, not to mention the waste of ammunition, and not to mention that the elite troops of the Zerg have not yet appeared, so the ordinary strength of the knife and insect attack can allow you to attack with all your strength, how long can you support it, one drum, and then exhaustion, three and decline, you know, the knife insect is almost inexhaustible cannon fodder, how much or how much." ”
Qin Da Khan, in his previous life, he participated in small-scale assault battles, and large-scale operations were all in the fleet, and he was still a bit of a layman for large-scale land warfare.
His knowledge of war is still a little white: "I can't imagine that Brother Zangbao is still a master, do you want to give them a wake-up?"
"No, their commander is not a waste, not a veteran who can get into the position of division commander, war, there is always a process of adaptation! At the beginning, it is always a little nervous, and it is common to be unable to control it, just get used to it a little. ”
As the leopard said, after a round of heavy fire, the shouts and scolding of the veterans were heard in the troops, and then the tactics began to be adjusted.
This time, the knives and insects were released to rush close and then attacked, the rocket artillery carried out fire isolation, and the heavy weapons and flame guns were used to jointly strangle them in the vicinity, and a group of them were eliminated and then sent in to fight, and the efficiency was greatly improved, and the overall rhythm of the battlefield was in a state of artificial control, and the war was relatively much easier.
However, the Zerg's fearless nature began to appear, and more and more queues joined the attack sequence.
More knife insects formed waves of attacks at a higher frequency, like a tide, the back wave pressed the front wave, never stopped, regardless of casualties, the strong attack pressed the front, and the situation was suddenly tense.
After another fifteen minutes or so, the first line of defense of the wall barely managed to catch its breath, not to mention maintaining its rhythm.
This is the most feared part of the Zerg, the flood of attacks, the desperate killing, and the inability to see the dawn of victory.
Several times they were attacked by knives and insects to the wall.
The second wall was quiet at this time, and Qin Chong even saw a commander holding a cigarette in one hand and a large-mouthed teapot in the other.
Qin turned around and wanted to ask the Tibetan Leopard what was going on. Although he doesn't have much actual combat experience, he has participated in the battle after the break, and he also understands that fighting a war depends on overall cooperation.
"Now there are no casualties, and there are no knives and insects breaking the defense, let the front line exercise more, it is a rare opportunity for these B-level troops!"
The leopard knew what the rookie wanted to ask at a glance, and looked bored:
"Now most of the B-level troops are newly recruited recruits, which can be seen from the desperate indiscriminate shooting they just now, if you don't take this opportunity to let them fight, when it's really tight, these people may not be able to withstand it!"
This makes sense, even I, a veteran soldier who has experienced a hundred battles, will inevitably mumble a little when I see this formation of the Zerg, it is impossible for those recruits not to be nervous, so the first wave of small-intensity attacks of the Zerg is the best tranquilizer, as long as the soldiers devote themselves to the war, they will forget their fears, this is a personal experience.
But now it seems that the first wall is starting to tighten, right? Qin Zhong had to admire the commander, he was really calm!
The leopard looked at Qin Chong and said with a smile:
"Don't look like it's going to be a fierce fight, in fact, both sides are still warming up, you look at the bugs' troops, they're being used now, but it's about a few hundredths like this, what's the hurry, it's just the beginning!"
These words woke up Qin Chong, and when he looked around, a team of insects came in a row, and the rear was filled in endlessly, and it was really as the Tibetan leopard said, the troops used by the Zerg were just a drop in the bucket.
Command of war is an art, an art written in blood, and it is not possible to fight a war well with theory.
