Chapter 300: A Dangerous Moment
Rolling mountains, secluded forests, and mutant beasts hunted and hunted constitute a paradise for animals, large mountain ranges. Reading Book Artifact.yankuai.
There was no roar of human machines in the mountains, only the occasional cries or screams of mutant beasts, and the sound of the wind blowing the leaves, and everything seemed peaceful.
At this moment, in the southwest of the Great Mountain Range, this tranquility has been shattered.
The roar of guns and cannons rang out here, the flames caused by the explosion rushed into the sky, and the earth-shattering beast roar continued to be released, and the beast roar was connected into a group, turning this place into a hunting ground for beasts.
At the entrance of the underground base more than ten meters wide, this place has become the Shura Hell, where the corpses of countless humans and mutant beasts lie horizontally, and the rolling blood flows down the slope of the cave, forming a stream of blood.
Near the cave, yellow bullet casings fell all over the ground, and from time to time you could see a gun crater, where more than a dozen armored vehicles and several tanks were blasted and destroyed, or torn apart by groups of mutant beasts, or trampled flat by powerful mutant beasts, turning these human war machines into a mass of scrap metal.
The battle outside the cave entrance is nearing the end, and it is occupied by hundreds of thousands of mutant beasts, the lowest mutant beasts are all first-level, carnivores are the majority, and the occasional herbivorous mutant beast is also a relatively strong one like bison apes.
The highest-level mutant beasts were two giant pythons of several hundred meters, which were the mutant male python and the mutant female python that Wang Jin was familiar with, a powerful mutant beast of the fifth level and a fourth level.
Under the mutant python, there are more than a dozen third-level mutant beasts, each of which is tens of meters to a hundred meters tall, although it is not as tall as the mutant python, but it is also a behemoth, the overlord of the party that dominates in the forest.
It's just that in front of the mutant python, these third-level mutant beasts all lowered their arrogant heads and bowed their heads to obey the command of the mutant python.
The largest number is the second-level first-level mutant beasts, the second-level mutant beasts have about four or five hundred, and the first-level mutant beasts reach more than 100,000, which is the backbone of the beast herd.
The opponent of the beasts is the human army led by Jiang Zhengqing, and in the cave, Jiang Zhengqing leads hundreds of mutants. With 5,000 soldiers, more than 20 small artillery pieces, more than 50 armored vehicles and tanks, a defensive line was built. If you want to enter the cave, you can only break through this line of defense.
For some reason, most of the hundreds of thousands of beasts stayed in place, and only 30,000 beasts were led by three third-level mutant beasts to charge towards the human position.
Mutant beasts are not small in size. Ordinary first-level mutant beasts are also much larger than humans, and when a group of 30,000 beasts attack, they are not weaker than a mechanized army of the same size.
The endless herd of beasts roared, braving the baptism of artillery fire, and the mutant beasts were blown up with flesh and blood at every step, and the bullets were hurriedly lined up, forming a monstrous rain of bullets to shoot the mutant beasts in front.
On the periphery of the defensive line, there are three wide trenches dug here, each of which is more than ten meters wide and ten meters deep, and many sharpened logs are erected under the trenches. Most of the mutant beasts that fell into it were accelerated by their weight and gravity, and most of them were pierced through their bodies and howled to death, and only a few were lucky enough to crawl out again.
Behind these three trenches, there are more than 5 million termites, and more than 2,000 soldiers of five or six meters in size, covered in thick armor and two meters long.
Soldier ants have the strength of first-level mutant beasts, and they are very common termites mixed together to become the second line of defense to resist the attack of mutant beasts.
Many mutants passed through the trenches. After stepping into the ant colony covering a radius of hundreds of meters, it was crawled all over the body by dense termites and frantically bitten, coupled with the attack of soldier ants, the mutant beast was gnawed into a pile of white bones.
Only a handful of powerful second-level mutant beasts were able to break through the colony. Rushing to the human position of the third line of defense behind, most of the mutant beasts were entangled in front of the ant colony, and even cowered, for fear of being gnawed into white bones by the ant colony.
It is precisely because of the three trenches and ant colonies that Jiang Zhengqing and them have persevered until now.
But now, these three trenches are also about to be filled by the corpses of mutant beasts. The ant colony was also trampled to death by more and more mutant beasts, and nearly half of them were killed or injured.
The underground base still could not resist the attack of the mutant beasts, many mutant beasts rushed into the position, tore the soldiers apart with sharp claws, trampled them flat with iron hooves, and swallowed them with bloody mouths, and the humans in close proximity were a group of lambs to be slaughtered in front of the mutant beasts.
If it weren't for the hundreds of mutants who resisted and cleaned up these mutant beasts that broke through the position, I was afraid that Jiang Zhengqing's position would have been broken through and collapsed long ago.
Even so, this human position was still crumbling, and the beasts just didn't use all their strength, otherwise the thousands of flying mutant beasts in the sky would be able to destroy Jiang Zhengqing and their position with a single dive.
"Chief, more than half of the third company of the second battalion has been killed, and the garrison defense line is in danger, so I ask for support from the reserves."
A herald with dark red clothes, dyed with the blood of unknown humans or mutants, muddy hair, and a blackened face hurried over to speak the words received on the walkie-talkie.
Jiang Zhengqing, who was standing at the innermost part of the position, at the mouth of the cave, frowned even deeper when he heard this: "The reserves have all been sent out, there are no reinforcements, let the third company hold on to me, as long as there is still a soldier and a pawn, I can't let the mutant beast break through the defense line for me." ”
The herald was stunned for a moment, his face became bloodless, and after saluting, he hurriedly ran back, picked up the walkie-talkie to convey the order, but his voice trembled a little, his family knew his own affairs, and it was difficult for them to resist the next charge of the mutant beast.
Hit a soldier and a pawn, to say a good thing, the soldiers in their underground base do not have this quality, now the third company is close to collapse, after learning that there are no reinforcements, I am afraid that it will not be long before the position of the third company will be lost.
As the so-called thousand-mile embankment collapses in an anthill, and the loss of a defensive line often causes a chain reaction, hitting the emotions of the remaining soldiers, causing the entire front to collapse in chaos.
Although the herald guessed the ending when he saw the mutant python, he was still terrified when he really waited for this scene.
Perhaps because he didn't want to drag it on, the mutant male python let out a roar that resounded through the battlefield, his low head was raised high, and the 100,000 beasts in the rear moved, forming an endless beast tide, sending out a final sprint towards Jiang Zhengqing's position.
The faces of all the soldiers on the battlefield changed, some had trembling hands and fell to the ground with weapons in their hands, and some had weakened bodies and fell to their knees like noodles, waiting for death to come.
There are also many people who are not willing to die, so they turn around and run backwards, trying to burrow into the caves, hoping that the beasts will not find them and seek a life.
The same is true for those mutants, the four mutants were originally fighting with the three third-level mutant beasts, and at this time they also began to fight and retreat, otherwise they would be swept up by the surging beast tide, and they would be eaten by the corpses and bones of nothing.
"Hey!" Jiang Zhengqing sighed, with a hint of loneliness in his voice, and then said with a smile: "Fortunately, Shishi is not here anymore, I hope she can live a good life in the future." ”
"Daddy!" Jiang Zhengqing was sighing to himself, closing his eyes and waiting for the beasts to rush to meet the last moment of his life, when a faint shout suddenly came from the sky.
"Even hallucinations!" Jiang Zhengqing laughed at himself, but felt that something was wrong, because not only did the illusion not disappear, but became clearer and clearer.
"It's hard to do it!" Jiang Zhengqing had a thought in his heart, and suddenly the sky darkened, and a familiar strange cry came.
Looking up, Jiang Zhengqing was stunned, and at the end of his eyes, a large dark cloud drilled out of the clouds and soared above the battlefield. (To be continued.) )
