Chapter 23 Defense
Although the attack method of insects already has a sense of land-air coordination, this tactic still seems awkward, obviously it is very unsatisfactory to cooperate and fail to exert the power of real land-air coordinated and coordinated operations.
When the first wave of mantis soldiers' charges had not really hit the base, the big mosquito, as the "Word Air Force", had already taken off and flew over, and was naturally shot into a sieve by all the firepower in the base, and basically did not pose any threat to the base.
Of course, this can also be seen from the other hand that as the war between insects and humans continues, the female insects have begun to improve their original combat methods and have already taken such a prototype. However, they still need to be constantly adjusted. In the future, all insects will launch a layered and cooperative offensive in a very harmonious manner according to their characteristics. For the federal army, it will definitely be a nightmare.
When the mantis soldiers who had more than a thousand attacks had already rushed to less than 500 meters from the high wall of the base, the firepower readings that had been silent for a while after shooting the big mosquitoes for a while began to pour out again. The ammunition reserves in the base were actually very sufficient, and the troop transport spacecraft also carried a large amount of equipment and supplies, so no one would be too stingy with their ammunition at this time.
Furthermore, the insect's carapace is extremely strong, and the damage to them is really limited. It must be fired with high-intensity firepower for a period of time before it can truly kill a mantis soldier. Therefore, soldiers in the military base must not say that they can put the insects in front of them and then shoot. Instead, they will start shooting immediately when the bullet can penetrate the insect's carapace.
The barrage poured out, and the dozens of mantis soldiers who were charging at the forefront were suddenly hit by bullets and their bodies were directly blocked. Their bodies were directly pierced and cracked. The power of this gravity machine gun was indeed terrible, but unfortunately the weight was too heavy and too large. In addition, the cost was very expensive, which also restricted the assembly and development of the gravity machine gun in the federal army.
The first wave of more than a thousand mantis soldiers rushed to the bottom of the high wall, about seven or eight hundred, and lost half of them. Some were directly blown up and their heads were slapped. Some were broken and their legs were lying on the way to charge, but they had lost their combat power. After all, the base was still a little far away from them, and they could no longer pose any threat to the base.
However, what surprised Xiao Xuan was that the second wave of mantis soldiers who charged forward actually used their sickle to pierce the previously broken leg or dead likes, held their bodies and ran under the high wall, and threw their bodies directly under the high wall, acting as "sandbags", so that they could exert some of their last remaining heat.
If the insects really cannot capture this base for a long time, then the dead insect corpses can probably pile up a small hill outside the high wall. At that time, the insects that charge later can directly step on the same corpses and rush directly to the high wall without being blocked by the height of the high wall. In the face of war, any kindness is so ridiculous and hypocritical. I remember that when humans were fighting in cold weapons, they did a lot of this kind of moat with human corpses. However, without going through the war, it is difficult to feel the tragic nature of the war. The feeling of life dissipation instantly is the eternal and unchanging main theme on the battlefield.
Feeling this atmosphere, Xiao Xuan felt that he was very moved. This was no longer the kind of touch caused by a person who had just entered the battlefield. Instead, Xiao Xuan felt that his understanding of the magic of the undead was inspired, just like a kind of enlightenment. However, now is not the time when Xiao Xuan spent time to experience this understanding carefully, and there was no distraction on the battlefield.
Xiao Xuan was standing on the mail tower, but his safety factor was much safer than those soldiers who were standing by the high walls and shooting. After all, sometimes some "genius" mantis soldiers may have super jumping power. When they step on their companions' bodies, they might jump directly to the high walls. Even if they can't jump up, even if you are rubbed to read, they will probably end up with the separation of flesh and blood.
God gave humans creativity, allowing humans to create powerful and terrifying tools and possess powerful weapons, but God is also fair. Compared with these bugs, the human body is indeed much weaker. Therefore, when the two sides fight, they have always subconsciously attacked the other's shortcomings with their own strengths;
The human army has been deliberately maintaining the combat distance and firepower coordination with the insects, while the insect is thinking about how to enter the human army as soon as possible to fight with human soldiers in close combat.
Unlike others who kept pressing the trigger to shoot almost all the time, Xiao Xuan was still mainly shooting. Moreover, because he stood on the sentry tower in the base, his vision was good and he could control the overall situation. Therefore, when there was a mantis soldier on which side might have to rush up or had already rushed up half of his body, Xiao Xuan quickly used his own firepower to support him.
It is difficult to kill a mantis soldier if one or two reads. Even if you shoot the head of a mantis soldier, you can kill a mantis soldier's cerebellum that is almost the size of a walnut, which can be fatal. Otherwise, shooting anywhere else can't kill it instantly. This conclusion is the result of the experiments that human researchers have dissected by many bugs;
However, even so, Xiao Xuan's reading and shooting can still block the body of the mantis soldier, allowing the soldiers defending around to quickly fill the position and repel or shoot the mantis soldier who was trying to rush up.
At this time, the Lei Blade was completely bare-handed, holding the gravity machine gun with both hands, constantly sweeping below. Wherever his muzzle was swept, the mantis soldiers were swept directly. Moreover, the Lei Blade deliberately controlled the mantis soldiers' thighs. As long as the mantis soldiers' thighs were shot, they would not be able to jump up to the high wall again.
It is just that controlling the gravity machine gun is also an extremely energy-consuming thing. Even if the recoil is weakened a lot due to the design and structure, it is also extremely amazing. It is no wonder that Lei Blade was already sweating profusely and was a little panting. However, he still gritted his teeth and persisted, and his eyes revealed a sense of excitement and excitement. Obviously, although he was very tired, he enjoyed this feeling very much.
Wang Zhi was more straightforward when shooting. He was holding a sniper rifle in his hand, and he deliberately aimed at the cerebellum of the mantis soldier's head to snipe. Often, two to three shots can hit the cerebellum of a mantis soldier and directly kill him. Such sniping efficiency is already amazing.
With fortifications and no fortifications, it is indeed two completely different scenes. Xiao Xuan still remembers how the millions of human army collapsed and suffered slaughter when facing the raid of the insects during the first landing battle. Now, with the combination of solid fortifications and effective firepower, here, it has become a meat grinder for the insects. Human bullets are ruthlessly harvesting the lives of the insects. Today, the role seems to have undergone a big reversal.
The defensive battle lasted for nearly three hours. After the insects left behind the bodies on the high wall, they retreated again like a tide. The federal soldiers on the high wall began to sit on the ground and rested, and some continued to shoot the insects outside the high wall who were unable to leave due to physical disability but were not dead.
Lei Blade let out a heavy breath and lay directly on the floor of the sentry tower.
"Damn it, I'm so tired, but it's so good, it's so good!"
"It doesn't seem like you've just finished the battle, but it seems like you've just finished it? Love." Wang Zhi smiled and kicked Lei Ren, but Lei Ren didn't care at all. His body seemed to be trembling slightly at this time. It was the feeling of him controlling the gravity machine gun before, just like if a person suddenly got ashore after swimming for a long time, he would still feel that he was still floating in the water.
"Sleep well, I'm afraid the bugs will continue to come later." Xiao Xuan originally wanted to draw out another cigarette to read, but he found that his fingers were still in a state of soreness because he had been holding the gun with great tension for too long. After taking out the cigarette several times, he gave up. However, there seemed to be a residual excitement in his mind, which made it impossible for Xiao Xuan to take a nap and rest for a while. So he simply sat down against the sidebar of the whistle tower, took out a magic note of the undead from his hand and started reading it.
Previously, Xiao Xuanxin was infected by this battlefield atmosphere and seemed to have a kind of understanding, an understanding of the magic of the undead. Xiao Xuan is now trying to digest this understanding.
Seeing Xiao Xuan taking out the magic note and looking at it, Wang Zhi and Lei Bian consciously stopped making any sounds. Wang Zhi closed his eyes and began to use some ** positions on his face to help his eyes relieve fatigue. He kept sniping with a sniper rifle for three hours, which was indeed very stressful and useful to his eyes.
Lei Bian massaged his arm to relieve the soreness.
Under the mail tower, the major led a few people to clean the battlefield, saying that it was cleaning the battlefield, but in fact there was nothing to clean. After all, it was impossible to go outside the base, that is, to stroll around the base.
In the battle just now, the base did not suffer much loss. Two unlucky guys were cut off their heads directly. Five people were seriously injured, and more than ten were slightly injured. They would not cause too much damage to the combat power in the base. Of course, this was the result of guarding the base and not being rushed in by insects. If the insects were really rushed in, even if there was only one, the casualties would be huge!
