Chapter III: Military and Military Forces

There were fewer soldiers and policemen patrolling the city, and more people were recruited to the walls to fight the bugs. The Bincheng Military and Political Joint Command www.biquge.info announced a new ordinance to recruit young and middle-aged veterans to re-enlist, and will ensure the food supply for the soldiers and their families.

There are all kinds of rumors in the market, some say that there are planes at the airport every day to pick up people, and the leaders and officials have long been gone; It is said that the troops are out of bullets, and decent people negotiate with the bugs, and everyone will die if they can't talk.

In the past, every time such a rumor was brought together, experts and scholars would immediately jump out to refute the rumor, and the incident of insulting the people slowly subsided. Now that the Internet and media have all disappeared, the people are instead looking forward to someone coming out to refute the rumors, and hoping that the army will come out and issue an announcement saying that it is fake. However, compared to the increasingly tense defensive situation in Bincheng City, the top brass can no longer care about such trivial matters.

Bencheng hadn't heard a cannon fire for almost two months, and that was the only thing that gave the people behind the walls a little comfort. And the military and political officials who knew the truth were not happy at all, because from the reconnaissance planes and satellite surveillance screens, the insect swarms of the entire Liao Province were gathering in Chaobin City. The calm of these two months is the calm before the storm.

In the vast night, several Il-76s protected by J-31 fighters of two squadrons took off from the Kyoto base and flew to Bincheng Airport. The flight lasted less than two hours, and in the middle of the flight, the J-10 fighters that took off from Bincheng Airport also joined the escort formation. In addition to the J-10, there are several J-8s that are about to be retired, and this time to escort, the Bincheng Air Force dispatched all the fighters.

Even the fighter pilots involved in the escort were only told what mission they were carrying out after takeoff, and the two military airports in Ben Cheng received orders to impose the highest level of martial law 30 minutes before the planes landed, but the planes finally landed at the Ben Cheng civilian airport. All this was planned, and the level of secrecy was so high that even the top brass of many troops did not know.

A group of soldiers stepped out of the plane, dressed in new combat uniforms that the soldiers had never seen before, and their armbands were different from all the troops they had seen before. Two flying dragons arched to defend a sharp sword, and the golden words of "Armed Forces of the Republic of the Mindful of the Ability" appeared in an arc above the sword.

Seeing the plane landing, Li Hongpeng, commander of the Bincheng Military Division, breathed a sigh of relief.

Three days ago, professors from the Chinese Academy of Sciences, experts and scholars from several universities in Bincheng, experts from the Bincheng Institute of Chemical Physics, high-ranking government officials, and high-ranking military officers at the Bincheng military-government joint headquarters packed the originally spacious conference room.

On the big screen, a video is playing quietly. In the video, a group of foreign troops is relying on the terrain to shoot at the swarm of insects that are storming the city, and judging by the FAMAS rifles in the hands of the soldiers and the advanced combat uniforms on their bodies, this should be a French army. In addition to the French soldiers who were shooting with guns, there were also some soldiers in military uniforms but without weapons, when the number of insects put pressure on the defense line, a short soldier suddenly released a dazzling light in his hand, and several arm-thick lightning bolts pointed at the insect swarm that was about to cross the fortifications, and the dozens of insects that rushed to the front froze for a moment froze and did not move.

"This is the material that the French Ministry of Defense shared with us seven months ago, and the two ends that we saw before were filmed by the US military and the other was a video of the Russian Army defending the war in Moscow. None of the footage on the video is a computer stunt, these... These miracles are all achieved by those who have the ability to think. ”

A word of uproar, the ability to read? Superman? This was difficult for serious experts and scholars to accept, and even the officers who had always been quiet and calm began to whisper.

"I don't know the origin of the telepathic or the way it is named. What we can tell you is that there are some people in the crowd who have this special energy of manipulation, and what we need is to identify these people, tap their abilities, and cultivate them into an important force that can help us defend the city. The Kyoto base has set up a unit composed entirely of mind-to-mind personnel, and the military headquarters will also send some of them here to help us defend and carry out the selection, management, and training of mind-level personnel. ”

After the shock, Li Hongpeng made the next stage of work deployment. Before screening the whole people, the potential of the army should be screened to ensure the army's absolute control over Bincheng City, and at the same time, all units should be reminded to pay attention to the fact that they should be vigilant about the affairs of those who are capable, and once they are found to have special abilities or extremely powerful abilities, they will report to the command headquarters as soon as possible.

The process of screening the capable is not complicated, and with the assistance of the Capable Force, the screening of the Bincheng Army was quickly completed, and the identification of civilians was also carried out quickly. The military and political command made a promise that as long as they were recognized as having the potential to cultivate the ability to think, they would receive free food supplies.

After several months of porridge, the victims were eager for food. I heard that there is such a policy, and the enthusiasm of the people to participate in the test is very high. The military has set up a training course for those who have the ability to read, and those who have the foundation for the cultivation of the ability to read are registered and arranged for intensive study. Those who are strong can also live in the military subordinate areas, and they and their families can be protected and cared for.

Zhang Jiqian did not go to the test immediately, but observed the situation and found that the awakened people had returned home safely, and they were not forcibly brought into the army to enlist, nor were they dragged to the laboratory for dissection experiments. Mindfulness? Hey, so will Lao Tzu! The "dream man" didn't tell himself not to take the test, and after the bug came, those hallucinations never appeared again.

Zhang Jiqian can only recall some fragments, in addition to the method of cultivating mental ability, there are also some fighting knowledge and survival skills. It is Zhang Jiqian's own decision not to do the test, it is impossible for the military to eat and drink some people for nothing, no matter how strong the ability to read is, it is not equal to a group of rice buckets? Do you know if you will be pulled up to the wall and hit bugs in a few days?

The things of the Capable have made some changes in the whole city, and it has become a new hot spot for people, and the bugs seem to have been forgotten for the time being. Finally, in the middle of the night, the rumbling of cannon fire resumed. Although it is far away and cannot be heard really, it is tantamount to a thunderclap to the people of Bincheng who have lived a peaceful life for several months. At first, many people still had the illusion that they had heard it wrong, but soon the continuous sound of artillery made everyone's luck shattered, and the insects were attacking the city again! The sound of cannons bombarded the insects on the one hand, and also on the other hand, the fragile psychological defense of people.

The sound of the cannon rang out all night, and it gradually stopped in the early morning, and standing behind the high wall, you could also see the black smoke rising from the burning insect corpses, and you could smell the pungent stench when you were closer to the high wall. After the protection of the high wall, people finally remembered that outside the wall, there was still a world of insects.
