Chapter 601: On the northern front

Views:

The northernmost border of human territory, the northern front.

A green city wall stands on the ground. The wall is 60 meters high and 20 meters thick. It is seamless everywhere as far as the eye can see, as if it could be cut from a towering mountain and smoothed out, and then placed there horizontally. between north and south.

There is an extremely spacious passage on the top of the pale green city wall. In the passage, there is a row of dark heavy artillery defense lines that cannot be seen to the left and right. The caliber of the heavy artillery is twice as large as the barrel of a war tank. Among the military weapons controlled by the Central Military Academy, it is a super killer weapon that ranks first in the ranks of heavy artillery! The high-speed shells fired by it can punch a fatal hole in the body of an oversized third-level plague species, and the fragments of the exploding and flying shells can easily kill second-level soldiers within a radius of 50 meters.

And such weapons of war are set up every 50 meters on the top of the city wall. They put away the thick and long black barrels to stop a row of self-righteous steel guards, and once they raise the muzzle, they stop them. A fierce-looking King of Hell with open eyes!

At this moment, the jet-black heavy cannons raised their heads and transformed into living kings of hell with their eyes open. Behind each heavy artillery are two soldiers who are responsible for the legs of the heavy artillery. The distance between the heavy artillery and the heavy artillery is 5 meters away from a soldier holding a gun. They are all equipped with heavy sniper rifles with heavy and thick barrels. It is necessary to set up a bipod in the groove of the bunker on the top of the city wall to aim steadily from the east.

The green city wall is covered with corpses from south to north. Those lying at the foot of the city wall are all charred corpses that have been treated with flamethrowers. Those 50 meters further away may have been dead for half a day or a day. The corpse of the monster.

The corpses of monsters of various shapes and sizes were scattered on the uneven gray-brown ground. The corpses were filled with slowly flowing thick to dark blood. Those corpses were placed in a high-temperature environment, and the surroundings were filled with the strong smell of blood and the stench of decay. However, three or four meters away from them, you could smell the smell of gunpowder smoke permeating the air that was so strong that even heavy rain could not wash it away. Those smells were the main tone of the bloody land war, and were so strong that they could overwhelm the stench of corpses.

50 meters to 100 meters away from the city wall, this is a death zone. More than thirty war tanks were in that area. Around each war tank, a circle of soldiers set up a square armor shield. They used human flesh and armor shields to forcibly form a circle of steel on the chaotic battlefield like a meat grinder. Shield wall. There are two anti-aircraft machine guns on both sides of the rotating platform where the war tank gun barrel is placed. Two machine gun legs stand behind the anti-aircraft machine guns and aim the muzzles of the machine guns outside the steel shield wall.

No matter whether there is a city wall or a battlefield, all soldiers are wearing dark green soldier uniforms. And their enemies are the endless waves of plague in the occupied areas from the north.

The flowing clouds are long and thick, stretching from the end of the southern sky to the end of the northern sky, like a row of prison steel bars, dividing the dusk sky into strips of sky. The golden sunlight shines from the top of the clouds on the west side of the sky to the east. Each "cloud fence" dividing the sky is reflected in a golden silhouette, with a shadow that goes against the light.

The time of the world seemed to be suspended at that moment. The raised soil particles were suspended in the air, and the smoke was floating in the air. The ferocious plague species with different appearances opened their bloody mouths full of sharp teeth and salivated. The water rushed towards the soldiers in front of them with their sharp claws; the soldiers put up their armored shields and raised their rifles to resist, and the fire from the muzzles was still in the air.

The golden light between the flowing clouds spilled onto the gray-brown earth covered with corpses, illuminating the monster backs of the plague species with wild muscles, and illuminating the bulletproof helmets worn by the soldiers.

Time starts to flow.

The deafening sound of fire flooded the world in an instant, and the violent firepower network spread across every corner of the war death zone. The steel shield wall built by the manpower of soldiers surrounded the war tank in the center and pushed forward. The bullet chains ejected by the two anti-aircraft machine guns were like two whips of death. Wherever the metal storm went, the plague species exploded into bloody foam. flower.

The thick and long muzzle of the war tank blasted out a shell fiercely. The armor-piercing shell sprayed out red smoke and cut a "road" through the air. The end of that "road" extended to a 5-meter-tall figure 150 meters away. The gray-haired wolf's chest. boom! A light-transmitting hole suddenly opened in the gray-haired wolf's chest, and a large basin of blood dropped like rain on the ground behind him.

The gray-haired wolf wanted to rush forward, but the armor-piercing shell made it lose the strength to move. Its legs were bent forward, and its huge body fell to the ground with a bang. At the same time, the armor-piercing shells flew farther away, exploded, and set off a small mushroom cloud. The flying shrapnel caused a group of advancing plague seeds to fall to the ground forever.

Standing on the green city wall and overlooking the east, one can see traces of a traceable pattern in the chaotic battlefield filled with war. The fact is, are the soldiers fighting against the plague species on the battlefield really following the orders of the commander of the Northern Army

The heavy artillery array on the city wall is responsible for suppressing the plague species 300 meters to 500 meters away from the city wall. The "propulsion belt" composed of war tanks and armored shield wall teams has pushed the enemies that were originally close to 50 meters to the east of the city wall back to 50 meters. Outside, push toward a distance of 100 meters; the war tank is guarded by a steel shield wall built by soldiers and anti-aircraft machine guns near the war tank. The front opening is completed by the war tank's unrivaled armor-piercing shells.

The task of dozens of sniper legs guarding the city wall is to kill all plague species that are good at long-distance attacks and can damage tanks and nearby soldiers 100 to 300 meters away. From the city walls to the battlefield, the four combat units each perform their own tasks and are related to each other.

This set of tactics of pushing back the front has been used in actual combat 27 times by the northern defensive corps. It is a tactic with the lowest casualty rate, economical consumption of military supplies, and excellent results so far. In order to achieve that point, all soldiers must trust wholeheartedly every order given by the regiment commander and trust their teammates who support each other.

It’s rare, but that’s the sense of unity and comrades-in-arms that the soldiers of the Northern Legion, who guard the northern border of human territory all year round, have with each other!

On one side, the battlefield on the ground was going on with a fight comparable to the slaughterhouse of hell, while on the other side, dozens of drones coated with an invisibility layer were flying in the sky above the pale green city walls and the battlefield. The cameras carried by dozens of "transparent" drones that were difficult to identify with the naked eye captured huge battlefield scenes. Those images were projected on the strategic command base and general command room behind the Northern Army through high-tech electronic synthesis technology. The big screen is there.

The general command room is a staircase hall of nearly 300 square meters. Every table there is equipped with high-end electronic equipment and communication equipment, and there are members of the legion headquarters.

The commander of the Northern Army was standing in front of the command podium in the center of the general command room. The man was dressed in a dark green general's military uniform and had an oriental face in his early forties. His eyebrows were like swords and his eyes were steady. Although the years had taken away the edges and corners of the man's face, he still had deep wrinkles on his face; The snow dyed the man's hair red, but it couldn't take away the general's temperament that the man exuded when he stood upright!

When the man first arrived at the Northern Front ten years ago, he made great military exploits and gained the reputation of "General of the North Snow". It is clear whether he is the "Commander of the Northern Army" who is mature, steady and decisive in commanding.

The legion commander called in the information sent by other command members in the electronic Okuma screen projected into the air, observed and issued orders. A command headquarters with strong human resources and mature experience does not need to pass on the detailed information of every change that occurs on the battlefield to the legion commander when the battlefield is ongoing; the leader of a command team is responsible for controlling local tactical changes, and the team members are responsible for connecting the city walls. The communication headsets of the soldiers command their artillery fire and sniper attacks; when the leader of the command team determines whether a slight change in a certain battlefield will affect the overall situation, he will report it to the regiment commander as soon as possible.

Suddenly, a message from Command Group No. 7 popped up on the legion commander's command screen. The electronic screen displayed a movement on the ground 480 meters away from the green city wall!

This place belongs to the "No. 7 Area" of the "Nine-Gong Grid of the Battlefield". The drone detected the sudden appearance and sudden increase of the oscillation frequency on the surface of the area. It is very likely that the oscillation frequency has increased along with the quantifiable data!

"The measurable level of level 7.76 in the third level is not that guy."

The legion commander made an immediate decision and sent the order to all the command members in the general command room. All commanders connected to the communication immediately and transmitted the legion commander's order to the soldier team leader who was on the battlefield and on the city wall.

"Urgent order, all soldiers pay attention 300 meters away in the northwest direction, the 'Gray Queen' is coming!"

At that moment, all the soldier squad leaders who received the order turned their attention to the northwest direction mentioned in the order. Feeling the trembling of the earth on the battlefield is more real and obvious than what is detected by the drone. At that time, the trembling of the earth has become very terrifying, as if there is a thunder drum to the east of your feet!

Suddenly, among the plague army in the northwest, there was an area where earth and rocks rose from the ground. The fountain-like earth and rock flow was lifted into the air by the huge force from the east of the earth. Then, a huge gray monster burst into the eyes of all the soldiers at the same time. !

The gray monster was 50 meters tall, with a body as big as an oval millstone surrounded by 18 legs as thick as a battering ram. An arthropod torso that is very similar to the "upright half-body of a king cobra" stands high in the sky in an S-shaped arc, just like the body of a giant insect snake! The top of the curved insect snake body is the monster's head. The monster has a huge insect head like a bee. In the center of the insect head's face is a face as big as a human face; this face has no eyes or eyes. The nose has no ears, only a weird big mouth with a huge grin.

The gray monster's insect-snake body stretched high into the sky had two giant blade arms that resembled mantis scythes on both sides. The length of one arm's leg blade was just long enough to cut a war tank in half like a cake.

The first and most terrifying thing is the tail of the gray monster's millstone-sized body. Its tail is the same as the unusually huge tail of the Queen Bee. There are countless eggs moving in the east of the gray translucent membrane.

Then the mutated and rampaging monster that suddenly appears from the ground and walks on the battlefield carrying a hatchling of live larvae is the "Gray Queen"!
