Chapter 435: The Ten-Day War
Things are changing so dizzily that it's hard for people to keep up with the pace, but at this time, there is nothing ordinary humans can do, and the only thing they can do is to follow the government's orders and instructions.
The invasion of extraterrestrial xenomorphs has given a great shock to human beings, compared to the previous red and black pyramids, many countries in the world have fallen into extreme chaos, under the impact of such facts, it is too difficult to maintain domestic stability.
It is difficult for even China to maintain stability as before, let alone other countries, and that is even more unacceptable.
Is the end of the world really coming?
It is not surprising that human beings inevitably gave birth to such terrible thoughts, but Chen Shi understands it, because even he himself was born with such thoughts.
However, he may have underestimated the true strength of mankind, and the Chinese and American sides, which have lowered their bottom lines, as well as the Russian, French, British and other countries that soon came to support, have continued to use various means to stop the invasion of the army of xenomorphs.
The most useful is of course nuclear weapons, which can be effectively reduced by the temporary number of alien organisms invading by constantly projecting into that crater, and what about other chemical weapons?
If we continue to test all kinds of chemical weapons, and everyone wants to find an effective chemical weapon as soon as possible, then the tide of the war may be changed.
In addition, the corpses of xenomorphic organisms were also obtained by various countries and immediately sent to biological laboratories around the world to prepare for autopsy studies.
The human war factory was in motion, and that was quite terrifying.
At first, Chen Shi thought that in the face of such a large number of xenomorph creatures, it would be difficult for humans to be hostile, especially under the premise that air supremacy could not be occupied.
But the truth was really beyond Chen Shi's expectations.
In addition to the initial civilian casualties, the casualties of China and the United States are very small, and both sides realize that in the face of such alien creatures, individual soldiers are definitely delivering food, and only artillery and countless bombs are the real effective means.
As long as the supply of weapons and ammunition is available, mankind will not be defeated.
The war entered its tenth day and reached a stalemate.
Although the number of xenomorphs is almost endless, not to mention hundreds of millions, the human side has adopted the quarantine zone, artillery covers the forward positions without restrictions, plus incendiary bombs, gasoline bombs and mines, etc., of course, the most important thing is nuclear weapons, without this thing, China and the United States are far away from their homeland, and it is difficult to support them until now.
Xiao Yang naturally didn't go to the front line, and his position was not a general's material, but because he was by his side, Chen Shi was able to learn a lot of inside information.
"That means humans can't hold on?"
Chen Shi frowned.
"At present, we have found that on the western front, xenomorphs will not go to the sea when they reach the seaside......"
Xiao Yang took out his tablet and played the video to Chen Shi.
On the video, you can see the dense army of xenomorphs sweeping in, but just as they are about to approach the beach, they suddenly retreat away and are not close to the sea.
"Can't they get close to the sea?"
Chen Shi asked.
"I don't know yet, but that's good news for now."
The good news is that even if humans can't hold out the evacuation, because they are surrounded by seas, xenomorphs are unlikely to threaten other countries.
"If you say that, there's got bad news, right?"
Chen Shi smiled bitterly.
"The bad news is that the people are in spoils."
Xiao Yang said slowly: "The number of local people is close to more than 20 million, and the nearby countries have used all their strength, but in the past ten days, less than 5 million people have been evacuated, and there are still nearly 15 million people...... Our reinforcements arrived a day later, but at most we were evacuated, and more than a million people were evacuated in the last minute......"
"And the rest of the people?"
Chen Shi was surprised: "Can't you really hold on any longer?" ”
Xiao Yang shook his head: "In the past ten days, although we and the United States have suffered few casualties, the US weapons stocks in the Pacific have been exhausted, and as for our ......."
Even the United States has such a strong strategic resource projection capability, which is almost unsupportable, so there is no need to talk about China.
Of course, it would be trivial if it was on the mainland, but the current situation is that in the face of a country more than 2,000 kilometers away, China's material delivery capability is really not good, and it cannot support a strategic-level war.
The fact is that since the Ten-Day War has been fought, eighty percent of the xenomorph creatures on the battlefield have been eliminated by the U.S. military, without it, the U.S. military's ability to deliver weapons and resources around the world is really buggy, which is like a person with 1,000 rounds of weapons and ammunition, and another person is even a sharpshooter, with only 1 round of ammunition, and it is difficult to kill more enemies than the person who opened the hanging.
However, it is difficult for the US military to continue to support such a resource projection capability.
Otherwise, nuclear bombs would have been dropped like firecrackers without money, and countless xenomorph armies would have broken through the front long ago.
But nuclear bombs are also limited, no matter how many nuclear bombs there are, they can't be used as ordinary bombs, not to mention that the human side has also discovered that although the nuclear bomb is powerful, the strongest nuclear radiation lethality can't help these alien creatures at all, and the killing effect of the light and heat shock wave alone, except for the xenomorph creatures within 1.5 kilometers of the core explosion area, beyond this range, is gradually evolving, and it is difficult to kill again.
"The bigger trouble we face is that these monsters seem to be gradually becoming aware of the characteristics of our weapons......"
Xiao Yang had a headache and said: "Look, this is a satellite picture taken in the last two days. ”
"It's ......"
Chen Shi's face changed drastically: "They are no longer overly concentrated?" ”
"That's right."
Xiao Yang nodded: "Since nuclear radiation can't help them, the only thing they can rely on is the ultra-high temperature and shock wave of the nuclear bomb, but you also know that their shells are too hard, and it is almost difficult to hurt them 1.5 kilometers away from the core of the explosion." The proud number of kills before was that these monsters were too concentrated, and they were almost stacked several times...... But now, they seem to have learned wisely, and they are becoming more and more scattered from each other. ”
Although the xenomorphs still seem to be swept by a tsunami from above, the distance between individual units is actually much more dispersed than before, and they are no longer as congregated as they were in the previous days.
In this way, the lethal effect of nuclear bombs on them will be weakened to a certain extent.
"The US side proposes to abandon the ...... of Kalimantan"
"Abandon Kalimantan?" Chen Shi took a deep breath: "So the rest of the people? ”
Xiao Yang was silent for a moment before he said slowly: "Sometimes war is so cruel. ”
