Chapter Ninety-Five: The Great War Begins

"Looks like our friend has appeared." Almost at the same time, Philos and Darksteel ceased their unnutritious conversation, and a few thin wisps of smoke and dust rose up in the distance from the sky, so slight that only a few extremely sensitive people would notice.

Blacksteel and Philos were both of the above-mentioned people, and although the two seemed to be chatting casually, a considerable part of their attention was always focused on the direction of the cave, and this level of vigilance was really nothing to them like this, at most it could only be regarded as the instinct of a hunter.

"Prepare for the enemy!" Blacksteel roared and rushed forward. Philos shook his head helplessly, he was still the kind of person who was enthusiastic when he saw the battle, completely ignoring that he was the real commander here, Philos waved his hand, and the guards around him ran out.

At the forefront, the black steel is at the forefront of the ring bunker, where the bunkers are the most common improvised blastproof walls โ€“ made of collapsible reinforced steel wire mesh โ€“ made of several layers of thickened fireproof cloth and filled with locally excavated sand and gravel in between. It has the advantage of being easy to disassemble and assemble, and it is also the most cost-effective of the bunkers. Because of this, it is widely used by people.

And the position where the Black Steel is now is at the forefront and the largest bunker circle. For the convenience of surveillance, it is obviously more than a meter higher than the surrounding pieces. The soldiers inside were arguably the largest in number, and they saw Blacksteel rush in at a rapid pace, and they all moved out of the way.

Blacksteel came to the upper level of the bunker, and he looked down condescendingly, in order to prevent a large-scale enemy attack, the army placed two layers of protection around McGee, the outermost layer was several oddly shaped horses.

If you look closely, you will see that they are all welded from various shapes of metal. This is mainly due to the fact that the source of the materials used to make it is all discarded. However, it is enough to prevent the advance of hostile vehicles, but I don't know how effective it will be in this battle.

Black Steel looked into the distance, and the smoke and dust in the distance had gradually become a piece, and those soldiers who didn't know the truth were naturally talking about it. I haven't even heard of such a large group of monsters.

Gradually, a few small black dots broke through the yellow fog and rushed towards this side, followed by a slight engine roar, which Blacksteel was familiar with, and should be the most basic configuration of the shovel engine, a single motorcycle.

Blacksteel thought for a moment, then immediately turned and walked down.

"Give it to me!" He grabbed a loaded mp5 from the onlookers and walked back to the surprised gazes of the crowd, considering the tragedy that had happened at the entrance of the cave before, he had to be wary of these people.

Seeing that those black spots were getting closer and closer, the figures in the car became clearer. A total of six people and four motorcycles,

Looking at their expressions, it was obvious that they were shouting something, and about a hundred meters or so behind them, there was an endless huge gray and gray black grassland, and that dense thing like newborn grass was the black tentacles of countless giant ants! They moved slowly on the undulating surface, and it seemed that it was difficult for them to keep up with the speed of their motorcycles, but the hunters did not dare to be careless, and rushed towards the defense line with all their might.

"Let's go in~" They had already reached the defensive circle, and several motorcycles were blocked by the horses on the periphery.

It was impossible to remove the horses at this time, and seeing the hesitation of the hunters, Black Steel couldn't help but be furious.

"Abandon the car and go straight to the bunker~ a bunch of idiots!" Although the metal horses are dead all around, but the hunter generally says that it will pass. And the height of the bunker here is only two meters, and the soldiers on it have come up. It's not difficult, but it's hard for people to think calmly when they encounter danger, which is the main reason why hunters are in a hurry.

However, under the reminder of Black Steel, they immediately jumped off the motorcycle, after all, at this time it was still a matter of life, the man ran a few times and kicked the wall and rubbed into the cover, Black Steel pulled him down, and with the help of Black Steel, the man landed firmly on the ground.

"Well, how many people are there over there?" Blacksteel asked anxiously.

"All are dead... are all dead... The man's face was covered in blood, and he couldn't see his face at all, and he could only hear his frightened voice, "The people behind us are dead." Black Steel had already expected it, but he still asked with a glimmer of hope. After all, the fox has been his friend for many years, and he doesn't want such a cow man to be gone like this, and the captain of his team is also a rare good seedling, so it is unacceptable to die in the cave like this.

"Get ready for battle!" His only eye was bloodshot, since the person was dead, there was nothing to say, what he had to do now was to wipe out all the enemies in front of him, leaving no one behind!

The defending soldiers had already received orders from above, and the front line was in full charge of this man. Seeing his angry expression and high fighting spirit, they couldn't help but feel a sense of hatred for the same enemy. The soldiers in the front-line bunkers were all put into a state of readiness at once.

Philos came to the top of the walls of Macki, where the wind was noticeably much stronger. He looked down, all the troops had entered their combat posts, all the bunkers were divided into three areas in a "product" structure, the company with the largest number of people in the Black Steel was located in the middle part, and the main area was also the longest, Hulk's third company was responsible for the defense of the right bunker, and the second company hidden in the left bunker was naturally the second company. Four KV91 light tanks served as mobile units guarding the flanks of the bunker positions.

The enemy in the distance can already be seen clearly, but in just a few minutes, the black giant ant has formed a trend all over the mountains, and Philos's face became serious, as Black Steel said, the number of enemies is really quite large. If the protection of towns and bunkers is lost, even this regiment of its own can be said to have no chance of winning at all. The current situation is definitely not optimistic, but Philos's grim face is stretched out like ice and snow melting.

"Come on, giant ants~~" he muttered, "more ... โ€

As Philos finished saying this, the first line of the colony arrived at the outskirts of the position.

Those horses were not tall in the first place, and they were not a threat to a single giant ant at all. But when faced with an ant colony, it has become a surprise soldier. The giant ants that crashed into it were squeezed on it under the push and shoving of their counterparts behind them, and the protrusions and spikes of the horses were unceremoniously inserted into the bodies of each of the giant ants that rushed up. In a short time, a thick giant ant carcass had been pushed out of the outermost base horse, and the giant ants behind stepped on their carcass and crossed the base horse.

Naturally, the soldiers on this side would not let go of such a good opportunity to attack, and all the ranged weapons opened fire at this time.

The giant ant moving forward with all its strength seemed to suddenly crash into a huge invisible wall, countless bullet holes of different sizes exploded on the surface of the giant ant's body at the front, and streams of transparent and viscous body fluids mixed with green unknown liquid splashed in the giant ant colony, the soldiers all didn't have to aim, just output at full strength, Hulk was no exception, he had two AKs in his hand, it can be said that there are the largest number of automatic rifles in the world now, and it is also one of the most common weapons in the army. Hulk's best thing is continuous rapid fire, with his hand speed of changing magazines, his shooting efficiency far exceeds that of ordinary soldiers, dozens of giant ants fell under his tongue of fire in an instant, but these losses are just a drop in the bucket for the monster army in front of him.

Black steel carries a huge green barrel on his right shoulder, this is the most powerful individual weapon in the warehouse - PF98 bazooka, this big guy has a diameter of up to 120mm, and its weight is more than 20 kilograms, and ordinary soldiers rarely carry it out. It is also rarely used as a common weapon by hunters. And its troubles are much more than that. Its caliber is too large, the back spray is extremely serious, 100 meters behind it, and the range of 70 degrees to the left and right is a danger zone. So he could only use the empty bunker as his position.

Black steel grabbed a multi-purpose warhead at his feet, this big green guy weighed 76kg, and the warhead used self-forging warhead armor-piercing technology, followed by more than 120 55mm steel balls and combustible metal zirconium, and the after-effect was obvious. The killing ring of the warhead jacket has a killing radius of 25m and a maximum range of 2000m. It's just too appropriate for the current situation.

He pulled the trigger, and an orange-red light shot down into the endless sea of giant ants. The light vanished into the black ground. In an instant, a small mushroom cloud rose in the distance. With a loud roar, the giant ants with a radius of tens of meters around it were covered in a yellow heat wave. Countless sparks and debris splattered on their bodies. The giant ants twitched violently as if they had been electrocuted, their tentacles and slender legs swaying irregularly, and they were clearly in great pain. The soldiers in the bunker all stopped shooting, and everyone looked at this rare spectacle, this weapon itself is not used very often, and such a dense ant colony is even rarer, it is not surprising that they would have such a reaction.

"It seems that this attack method is very effective~" Philos couldn't help but say sincerely when he saw the following scene on the city wall.

"Go and call the warehouse armament and check how much stock of this bazooka and ammunition is?" He spoke to the guards beside him, who departed, and a short time later a panting soldier ran up from below.

"Report to the head of the group, this is the collection of the Golden City Lord... The soldier muttered, "I don't know who took it out of the warehouse... There is only one box of ammunition for four rounds... โ€

"You go down first." Looking at the back of the soldier running down, Philos said to himself, "It's not surprising, now that there are fewer and fewer ammunition for this kind of mass injury. โ€

If Black Steel could hear this, he would definitely agree with it, although this guy is bulky to death, but this kind of ammunition is becoming more and more rare now, countless marbles and violent metal fuel are simply specially prepared for such a scene. The only pity is that I rummaged through the warehouse, and only found this box of ammunition.

The four rounds of ammunition inside had been fired in Darksteel's hand in less than a minute. Every shell took the lives of countless giant ants. The reason why he was so fast was partly due to his own ability, and partly because many giant ants had noticed him and started spraying acid here. He finished his ammunition and jumped back into cover from above. Before leaving, he didn't forget to bring the more than 20 kilograms of cannon barrels.

These four multi-purpose bombs immediately gave everyone a little time to recuperate, but it was only a few tens of seconds, and the overwhelming giant ant colony seemed to come out of the ground. The corpses of the giant ants that had been burned to charcoal before were instantly submerged by them.

There was a hint of hesitation on the face of Philos on the city wall, and the number of other parties was far greater than he had imagined. Where the hell did they come from? According to Black Steel, it is just a giant ant's cave, but the number in front of me is not to mention a giant ant nest, even ten will not necessarily have such a number of giant ants. This thing is obviously too weird. It seems that he is still too careless.

"Order tank formations to support from the flanks." Philos waved his hand abruptly, his previous absent-minded appearance completely gone, and he looked like a keen beast at the battlefield below.

Now that he realizes his mistake, he naturally can't continue to underestimate the enemy, the main guns of these tanks may be a bit wasteful to fight giant ants, most of the shells carried by the tank have no splashing function, and the effect must not be as good as the effect of the rocket artillery, but after all, it is a chariot-level weapon, and with the secondary gun above, it can be said that it is a moving barrier. Powerful protective armor will not cause any fatal damage in a short period of time, and once these four tanks are pressed up, it can basically be said that they are invincible.

As he expected, as soon as the tank team pressed up, the situation on the battlefield was immediately reversed, and most of the giant ants put the center of attack on these huge iron blocks, and they were immediately covered by the ant colony, but this did not stop the tanks from firing unscrupulously. It's like a boat riding the wind and waves in the black ant sea. The pressure on the soldiers in the bunker plummeted, and they quickly took advantage of the opportunity to start replenishing and healing.

Seeing the situation in front of him, Philos did not show any joy, this was not an ordinary battle, although the opponent seemed to be vulnerable, but this situation was only due to the staffing of the defensive positions here. As a commander with great combat experience, he could naturally see the terrifying aspects of the other party. The question is whether the other party will have any backhand that they don't know? Although he didn't believe in what tricks the giant ants could play, he was subconsciously sure of one thingโ€”this battle would never be so simple.

Black Steel's face was also not good-looking, he always had a lingering fear for the little ant, if that thing joined the fight, then what could be done to fight them? Looking at the pile of giant ant corpses that had been wantonly crushed by the tank, he turned his head to look at Philos on the city wall, and the current situation could only be seen by chance.
