Tianxiang said this to the black cloud matriarch beside him. Because, ever since she knew her plan, she had been worried, worried that the unfinished Fangshi City would not be able to stop the crazy attack of the human-faced locusts. After all, although she knew the power of machine guns and artillery, she didn't know how useful these advanced weapons would be against the locusts.

The hive was completely destroyed. The violent explosion of nitroglycerin flipped it out from the bottom. Everything hidden inside is presented in the cold air, and the howling wind blows。。。。。。 Counting from the location of the insect nest, within a radius of several hundred meters, there are dense insect corpses of all sizes. Charted black, stiff, crunchy. They bend together like rings in a semicircle. When you step on it, it will immediately crack from the surface of the charred black body, and a trace of dark green semi-coagulated liquid will slowly flow out. Along with it, there is also a peculiar smell of locusts. Tianxiang stepped heavily on a rather dense pile of insect corpses. Viciously grinding it with his foot until he was sure that the pile of rotten flesh under his feet had been completely crushed into a thin mud, he removed the thick sole made of insect chitin from it. Thoughtfully said to himself, "Come on! Whatever you really are, just come. I want you to know what happens when you are an enemy of humanity." After blowing up the hive, the Black Cloud Clan came to the area where the camp was located, and naturally there was no value to be nostalgic for. According to Tianxiang's concept, this gourd-shaped chain basin is the best place to build Fangshi City. However, before that, all unstable factors in the vicinity must be eradicated.

The human-faced locust is the biggest threat to this. way within the basin, all construction is at a standstill. In each half-finished building, there is an improved GAU44Q with a high muzzle, and a large number of soldiers armed with light single guns lurking in it, the Type 992 four-company anti-aircraft machine gun, which is one of the best weapons used by ancient humans to deal with underspace aircraft. The 7.92 mm bullet is extremely penetrating, and a thinner steel plate cannot resist its impact. As for the carapace of the bug, that's even less to say. Since the first discovery of this weapon in an abandoned factory a few years ago. Tianxiang has already decided to use it as one of the indispensable equipment of the army. Because, in this world, bugs don't just crawl on the ground. The sky, too, is one of the places they must occupy. The dragon army has an air defense unit dedicated to flying insects. They were armed with two anti-aircraft vehicles using a combination of this 7.92 mm serial self-propelled anti-aircraft machine gun. Relying on the carrying capacity of the tank chassis, their transportation also became extremely convenient.

The number of self-propelled air defense combat vehicles that came with Tianxiang was not large, but the number of M992 four-company machine guns that were urgently airlifted from Liaodu after receiving an order had reached as many as 300 in just two days. If it weren't for the need to set aside some of the air power for ammunition transportation, Tianxiang believed that Liaodu's city managers would have doubled this figure on the existing basis. Turrets, which are under construction in all works. A project that was strictly ordered by Tianxiang to be prioritized. A turret that is complete and meets the design standards must have considerable defensive and offensive capabilities. A large amount of steel bars and quick-drying cement are the standard to ensure the construction of turrets. And a large number of heavy weapons are laid out inside. It is the most basic symbol of the turret's force. It took a few days to build a qualified turret, which is certainly impossible. Not to mention whether the foundation in the ground can be tightened, with a height of more than ten meters, it is a project that cannot be crossed in a short period of time. Therefore, the hunters could only place a certain number of anti-aircraft weapons in the artillery mounts with the ground foundations ready, and then piled up a large amount of building materials on the periphery of them. In this simplest way, dozens of anti-aircraft gun emplacements standing in the basin were "built" in a matter of days. Tank positions, individual attack fire points, reserve artillery attack groups...... All the infrastructure is built in this way. In Tianxiang's words, this is simply a "battle for habitation with bugs." ”

As for the winner, it will be decided through bloodshed and death. The question of how insects transmit information between each other is a question that Tianxiang has always wanted to figure out. But there was always no answer. However, all he knew was that these creatures, which had evolved far less than humans, had too many secrets of their own. Because, in the early morning of the next day, the sentry in charge of the guard had already sent back a report: "On the periphery of the surrounding hills, a large number of swarms of human-faced locusts have appeared. "When Tian Xiang's thoughts came into contact with the insect swarm for the first time, the shock that that terrifying scene brought to his heart was really difficult to express in words. He never dreamed that the number of human-faced locust adults mentioned by the Black Cloud Patriarch Liu Shunyun would be so large. There are so many that it is like the army of brown ants that engulfs everything, making people's scalps tingle and their hearts throbbing. If it's just more, then it's understandable how much Tianxiang is. It's been a long time since this creature was created. Relying on the careful breeding of the Black Cloud Clan, their number and population have become extremely large. However, quantity is not all that shocks Tianxiang. What made him feel incredible was the appearance of this terrible locust.

They're so human-like. If you don't pay attention to it, you can mistake them for people. In this battle, Tianxiang once saw the human-faced locusts captured after being anesthetized. At that time, they were lying on their backs in an iron cage, and there was no longer any part that looked similar to a human except for the carapace of the human face. However, Tianxiang, who has always been careful and careful, neglected an extremely important matter. He forgot the only words he had said after the critically injured men who had fled back to the sergeants.

"They're bugs, not people." The soldiers of the dragon land are all warriors who have undergone rigorous training. Interpretation of things. Nature cannot stop at simple observations. However, Tianxiang forgot this. I forgot under what circumstances my own soldiers would say such a thing.

It was only now that he really realized that his previous speculations about the locusts had actually made too many mistakes. After all, from the Lijiadui Labor Farm where they were first discovered, to the later Way Camp, they have overlooked a crucial issue - they are very similar to people. Like people, sometimes it's not just about the face or a part of the body. Appearance, in fact, is also an important criterion that can affect judgment.

The human-faced locust that stood on its own was only seen at this time. In his heart, he had to admit that those dead witnesses were indeed not wrong in what they said. They are indeed too human-like. Especially when standing on both legs. From a distance, it is simply a living person with sound limbs. "Artillery fire. Don't give them any chance to get closer. Looking at the more and more locusts in the distance, getting closer and closer, Tianxiang almost squeezed out this simple command from between his teeth. He really didn't expect that the human-faced locusts that he had been searching for for a long time would actually appear in front of his eyes like this.

Such creatures must not be left behind. Only kill them all. In order to eliminate all kinds of hidden dangers that may arise in the future. The power of the 255-mm shells was extremely powerful, and they exploded in the swarm. Scattered pieces of shrapnel that burst at first. Under the huge impact of the explosion, it splashed desperately in all directions. After piercing through the soft bodies of the insects, he finally took fresh green blood and slammed into the body of the insects that withstood the final attack. Heavy Ironclad Dragons and Destroyer vehicles are also firing. They had already replaced themselves with special warheads with bursting effects, and joined the ranks of self-propelled guns, spewing their anger into the distance. In particular, the heavy ironclad dragon carrying two cannons posed a deadly threat to the swarm. Alternately retract the attack's gun emplacements. Increased attack speed to double that of normal guns. Naturally, the casualties of insects are becoming more and more considerable. "God of War", this is the honorific title of the ancient French emperor Napoleon to give the son of artillery. It is also the recognition of this long-range attack weapon by ancient humans. After all, outside the range where bullets cannot attack, only they can achieve such great lethality. Weaken your opponent to reduce resistance to your soldiers' attacks and achieve ultimate victory.

The shelling lasted for more than a dozen minutes. With the guidance of the vigilant sentinels, large swarms of bugs were blown to pieces. The swarm of insects, which was originally densely piled together, was suddenly torn apart by the huge death explosion. In the area of the ring explosion, there is no longer a single live locust. The artillery has done a great job of the task that humans have given them. "Don't waste bullets, get them closer before you shoot."

This is Tianxiang's order, and it is also common sense that all soldiers know. It's just that no one expected that just when the various fire attack points were concentrating on aiming at the insects in front of them, a cry of horror came out from the mouth of the guard sentry.

"Bugs。。。。。。 Human-faced locusts. They, here they come. Oh, my God! So many, it's just a terrible lot! The soldier was right, and in the slaughterhouse, where the smoke had not yet dissipated, more swarms flew in from farther away. They appear to have received a distress message from their fellow species before they died, or they may have sensed that a massacre of their own species was going on here. In short, here they are. And the number of them is overwhelming, and the number is trembling.

"What, what to do? They...... Their number ... Yes, it's too much. "It's also the first time that the matriarch of the black cloud has seen such a scene. I was so frightened that I couldn't speak. "What to do? What else can I do? Tianxiang smiled indifferently: "Since they are coming, then I have to kill them all." After all, only in this way can their threat be eliminated from the ground up. Do it! Fire! ”

It may have been that the man-faced locusts had suffered heavy losses due to the terrible force of the previous artillery attack, or that they had found the method of breaking through the ground inappropriate. Anyway, just as the second round of shells was about to fly over them, a large swarm of locusts suddenly rose from the ground. Shaking the wings on his back, he jumped into the air more than ten meters away. And then they come together. Swarming towards the positions constructed by the human defenders.

Tianxiang's biggest headache finally happened. Once the bugs leave the ground, the powerful artillery fire will no longer pose any threat to them. Although the air defense force in the basin is quite strong, in the face of such a large number of locusts, Tianxiang himself is not 100% sure of victory. The first to attack was the long-range M992 quadruple-mounted machine gun. This terrifying weapon spews bullets into the air at extremely high speeds, tearing through one breach after another of the slow-flying locust swarms. Under the relentless attack of the 7.92 mm warhead, the swarm of locusts could not resist at all. They could only watch as one companion after another was torn apart, pierced, or blown to pieces by incoming warheads. Toes, hard beetles, and various fragments on the body of insects were splashed everywhere. It fell straight out of the air in all directions. Any living creature is said to have two of the most basic physiological reactions when it sees its own kind being slaughtered. One is fear, and the other is anger. Do human-faced locusts also have these two emotions? This question is not clear to Tianxiang. All he knew was. If you look at the information detected by the release of the senses, then anyone with a sixth sense can feel the hatred that emanates from the locust swarm. Anger, they are anger. After all. From artillery fire to the present. At least tens of thousands of bugs were also killed in the explosion. Plus the nest that was completely destroyed. The number of locusts that have died at the hands of humans can only be counted in the tens of millions. If they don't say anything about it, I'm afraid anyone will wonder if they are really intelligent.

"Each anti-air artillery mount, suppressing the fire. Keep the locust swarm as far out of the defensive ring as possible. The self-propelled artillery positions were ordered to be replaced with empty bomb heads. At all costs, not a single bug should be put in. "The anti-aircraft machine guns are still rapidly pouring a large number of bullets into the air. It felt like a large number of sparks flying up from all over the ground, trying to drive away the dense dark clouds in the sky. Although it has a little effect, it is for the whole of the dark clouds. It doesn't seem to make much of a difference.

There are so many of them, it's just a frightening number. That "buzzing" sound that comes from vibrating wings. People miles away could hear it clearly. The mulls of self-propelled guns and tanks were already raised high, pointing at their respective areas of attack. They were raised at such an angle that the soldiers around them couldn't help but feel nervous when they saw it: the shells fired from such an angle were almost the same as vertical. Could it be that all the gunners hiding in the car are crazy?

"Calibrate the position and shoot freely." Seeing that the artillery was ready, Tianxiang didn't say much and directly gave the order to attack. "Boom--" was the first to fire a cannon facing south. The shells that came out of the disembowel, along the inclined angle, under the action of huge thrust, drilled straight into the swarm of locusts flying in mid-air in a parabolic route. It exploded directly to the ground as expected, but exploded just as it was in the densest part of the swarm. A large number of tiny objects that shone with this silvery-white light also burst out from it, scattered from all sides, and disappeared among the thick swarms of locusts.

Such an attack does not seem to have any effect. Then, seconds later, large swaths of human-faced locusts stained with pale green blood fell from near the point of the explosion in the air. The cut was smooth and tight, and it looked as if it had been cut by a sharp knife. The nervous system of locusts is abnormally developed. Even though his body was completely shattered, his scattered limbs continued to twitch. On the surface of some hard bodies, there are also solid pieces of metal firmly inserted. It looked like a blade was slashing at the center of their bodies.

This is what is hidden in the empty bomb head. A small amount of gunpowder is used to explode the projectile body, and the metal fragments pre-positioned in it are exploded from it and splashed in all directions. This is the principle of an empty bombhead. Although this kind of warhead does not have much effect on ground targets, it is simply the most terrifying weapon with terrible lethality for low-flying insects. Shells fired from the air exploded one after another, and scattered metal fragments flew through the air with impunity. They happily weave through the bodies of the locusts, from one side to the other, and then fly out of one insect and into another. Tear it apart, tear it apart, cut it off...... Finally, under the effect of resistance, exhausted, he fell headlong into the body of a certain unlucky locust, and under the effect of the great pain of the insect's body, he fell from the air with his target, and fell heavily on the hard ground, unable to get up again.
