Chapter 90: A Crisis Is Coming
General Yi Feihua looked at the huge electronic screen map in front of him, his brows were furrowed, whether it was domestic or foreign, the information from everywhere confirmed one thing, tomorrow is the period when a large number of fourth-level awakened people are born.
Some of the areas on the map shown in green that do not have the Awakened. So far, the Great Lawn Mowing Operation has opened up an area of no Awakened with Tianhe City as the center and a radius of about kilometers around Tianhe Port, to be precise, it should be an area with few Awakened people. Although the army is repeatedly purged every day, a very small number of Awakened still break into the defense zone.
In the past seven days, the army has eliminated nearly 300,000 awakened people, but this is only a small part compared to the awakened people in the entire province.
Before the disaster, the population of Liaoning Province was more than 40 million, and no one knows how many awakened people were born after the disaster, but it is estimated that in the past, 5 million was a relatively close number. Since the birth of the disaster, after repeated strangulation by the army, the number of awakened people eliminated in the province has exceeded one million, but the number of remaining awakened people is still estimated to be more than three million.
Tianhe Port belongs to Tianhe City, is the most famous natural harbor in the north, east of the Yellow Sea, west of the Bohai Sea, now the population of the whole territory of Liao is concentrated here, the number of nine million! This is the difference compared to the pre-disaster total of nearly 45 million. It's chilling to think about. And the population of nine million, to put it mildly, is actually only enough for three million awakened people to beg for three days.
The general said in his heart:
"A distance of 2 phantom kilometers. Coupled with a buffer distance of 100 kilometers, this distance can delay them for a few days? ”
Outside the green area on the map is the "Bloodletting Zone" painted yellow. According to the plan, the large-scale lawn mowing operation is divided into two steps, one step is to take Tianhe City as the center, advance from the inside to the outside first, and the goal of the campaign is to eliminate all the awakened, including the most dangerous level 4 or 5 awakened.
And the other step, at the same time, is to send another unit to carry out an external battle away from the rear, mainly with the air force and mechanized troops as the main goal, the goal of the campaign is to kill all the awakened people who see it as much as possible, and only pursue the number of kills without paying attention to whether there are fourth-level awakened people. On the map, this yellow "bloodletting area" is about 100 kilometers deep, and there are a certain number of awakened people in this area. Beyond the yellow zone is the red zone, which is completely controlled by the Awakened, the so-called Calamity Zone.
As of yesterday, the losses of the troops on both fronts were very light, and the only loss of the air force was an old attack plane that crashed due to aging parts. But this afternoon, the troops who were fighting on the outside in the bloodletting area. Repeatedly replied to reports of encounters with the fourth-level awakened, and suffered some losses. And the worst news came from the report of the Air Force, including being caught by Lin Feng, the entire military region received a total of seven reports of encounters with fourth-level birdmen by the evening, and a total of five planes were lost before and after.
It's tomorrow. How many more fourth-level birdmen will be born, no one knows!
Whether there are still fifth-level birdmen, no one knows!
Is it time to end the large lawn mowing operation ahead of schedule and withdraw the troops sent by the small hand, especially those fighting in the bloodletting area, and carry out contraction defensive operations? This is the issue to be discussed at the ongoing military conference. Before it got dark, they finally came to a final conclusion.
Piece ten
When the "big shots" in the rear were still having a headache for the new round of "Level 4 Awakened" crisis that was about to break out. After finishing the clearance operation of the newly opened up "No Awakened Area" today, Wang's team entered a new stronghold located at a distance of O kilometers from Tianhe City in the evening to rest.
After seven consecutive days of high-intensity combat, the spirit has always been as tight as a string, whether it is an officer or a soldier, whether it is a muscular man like Wang or a nervous man like Lin Ban, everyone feels tired at this time, and the feeling of extreme exhaustion comes more from psychology. "Brother Lin, do you think the old man will want us to retreat! You've said that tomorrow will be the day when a large number of fourth-level awakened people will be born."
It was Xiao Bailan who was talking, after Lin Feng stretched out his "thighs" for him to "hug", now he has become the younger brother and follower of Lin Feng's side, but he was only halfway through his words before he was stared back by Lin Feng's eyes.
Lin Feng read it, Xiao Bailan is now a little afraid that the current situation is getting worse and worse, this is something that everyone knows. Although this is the newly cleared "No Awakened Area", it is next to the "Bloodletting Area". The Awoken in the bloodletting area could break into the freshly cleared area at any time at night, and the defenders of the stronghold had only one battalion, and they were subordinate to the Gang Division.
In fact, not only him, but also those evolutionaries who were not from the army in Wang's team were slightly uneasy to varying degrees. There are only three people who really have no fear of emotions, one is Lin Ji, followed by Wang and Du Lei, both of whom have seen Lin Ban's power and are full of confidence in him.
Lin Ban replied, "Within nine kilometers, there is not a single awakened one!" The closest to us, fourteen kilometers to the north! Don't worry, I'm here, and I won't let those guys touch the whistle! ”
In contrast, Battalion Commander Zhang, who was guarding this stronghold, was quite happy when he saw Lin Qi, and even said that with Lin Ban's eyes, he could sleep at night with peace of mind. The gap in the will between a soldier born from a regular soldier and an ordinary civilian is shown here. According to the instructions from the headquarters, Wang's front-line reconnaissance unit has just been seconded to the wizard, and the stone division has been fighting in the bloodletting area during this time.
After entering the rest base, Lin Feng began to habitually scan the situation of the awakened in the area around the base in an active way. Now, when he is actively exploring, the perceptual range is more than 20 kilometers.
Unexpectedly, this time he found a strange spot in the bloodletting area eighteen kilometers northeast of the stronghold.
"See the evolutionary reaction. Eleven semi-awakened reacted, two birdman awakened reacted, and about twenty ordinary humans reacted with the life magnetic field! Two of the six semi-awakened have reached the Level 3 standard. And the Evolver only has a second level. ”
This strange situation was quickly reported, and the command center called back and forth, ordering them to go to the scene to investigate.
Soon. Lin Feng called six evolutionaries. Get on an armored car and start out.
The Awakened around the cart entering the "Bloodletting Zone" were noticeably more sensitive, but fortunately none of them were on the route. When the car drove to a place three kilometers away from the target, it stopped at Lin Feng's request.
The location of the induction is a small mountainside not far away. Due to the close distance, Lin Feng was able to carry out more detailed perception and detection at this time.
After using active detection again, Lin Feng had roughly "seen" what was going on there.
He said to Shen Yan, the instructor who accompanied him:
"A bunch of scum!"
