One Hundred and Twenty-Four Mantises and Ants

However, the military miscalculated the resistance of giant locusts to insecticides, and the concentration of pesticides sprayed for the first time was insufficient, which directly caused some giant locusts to break through the isolation. The military dispatched more than 100 fighter planes to wipe out these giant locusts.

The northern military region made amends and immediately carried out high-concentration supplementary spraying, which finally curbed the spread of giant locusts, firmly suppressed the locust swarm in a narrow strip about five kilometers wide, and forced the locust swarm to migrate south.

The use of pesticides is far easier than killing locust swarms by force. Although the pesticides sprayed this time are known as green and environmentally friendly, but even if they are green and environmentally friendly, high-concentration pesticides pollute the land and water far more than artillery shells and aerial bombs. The long-term impact on the environment is difficult to predict. If it were not for the emergency, it would be impossible for Beijing to use this plan.

Although the military successfully controlled the spread of the locust swarm, Beidu City did not relax at all, and still monitored the movement of the giant locust at all times.

To everyone's surprise, the giant ants with great expectations in the north have not yet come into contact with the locust swarm. A group of giant praying mantises forced to move north suddenly rises up and suddenly encounters the front of the locust swarm going south.

Due to the military's all-out attack, the population of giant mantises has shrunk dramatically. When they came into contact with the locust swarms, the total number of giant mantises was no more than a hundred.

Soldiers in several armored vehicles nearby witnessed the hungry giant praying mantis attacking the locust swarm.

The body length of the giant locust is mostly about 1.5 meters, and the longest is no more than two meters. However, the smallest size of the giant praying mantis is more than three meters.

The largest giant mantis is nearly five meters long. One mantis rushed into the swarm of locusts first, and with a wave of its long knife arm, it clamped a giant locust between the arms. Enter the giant locust's body, hold it to the mouth and bite it, and bite off half of the giant locust's head.

The other giant mantises were not too slow, they jumped into the giant locust swarm like a tiger into a flock of sheep, each of them moved swiftly, hooked the giant locust and began to bite.

The soldiers who observed this scene looked at each other in blank dismay. Although their task was to monitor and control the giant locusts, their superiors had also explained that once they found giant mantises, they would immediately hunt them down. What if the giant mantises and giant locusts get mixed up now?

An enemy's enemy is a friend. This theory is definitely not suitable for giant worms!

The soldiers did not take advantage of the opportunity of the giant mantis to prey and fire, but immediately reported the situation.

A few minutes later, the soldiers got an order from their superiors: wait and see what happens!

In short, if the giant mantis does not leave the locust swarm, it should not be cared about. If there is any sign of leaving, it will be hunted and killed immediately!

In just a few minutes, the situation changed again.

The giant mantis rushing into the swarm of locusts is not slow to eat, and most of them have already filled their stomachs at this time, but the mantis is cruel by nature, and the giant mantis who is full of food and drink has no scruples. In a land without locusts, chop the giant locusts around you one by one under the knife.

Poor giant locusts eat grass and leaves. So far, there have been five kinds of giant locusts in this place. Only the foreign giant locusts are vegetarians. It is not an exaggeration to say that they are monks from the giant insect world. Where have you seen such a ferocious character?

Fortunately, the giant locusts have no intelligence and don't know what it means to be afraid. Hundreds of them were hacked to death by the giant mantis, but they still kept leaning towards the giant mantis, as if they had lived enough to seek death on purpose.

The nearby soldiers saw the whole process in their eyes, and promptly recorded the picture of the giant mantis slaughtering the giant locust with the vehicle-mounted data terminal, and forwarded the video to the headquarters via satellite.

People who saw this video were all amazed. The giant mantis is indeed a killer among insects. Unfortunately, this thing has such a good appetite. If it does not attack people, it can try to be domesticated and act as the vanguard of human beings.

The military thought that the giant mantis would take the initiative to leave after eating and drinking. Unexpectedly, the giant mantis, who had been hungry for several days, finally found something to eat and refused to move at all.

The locust swarm didn't care about the hundred or so giant mantises. If they were lucky, they would cross over where there were no giant mantises. If they were unlucky, they would be hacked to death by giant mantises. If it weren't for the giant locusts not eating meat, they would have torn up the hundreds of giant mantises.

A few days later, the locust swarm crashed into the ant-infested area,

The hungry giant ants finally had a chance to eat, and countless worker ants rushed to the ground to hunt and kill locusts.

The troops guarding the locust swarm began to retreat in an orderly manner, relying on the river to limit the spread of the giant ants, and the locust swarm was handed over to the giant ants to control, and the plan to control the insects with insects was carried out smoothly.

Under the temptation of food, the ant colony quickly developed northward, and soon after the giant ants came into contact with the giant mantis, the giant mantis killed several giant ants, and embarked on the journey of moving north again.

A mist shrouded the train refinery, and regular whistles came from the fog.

At this time, if a giant hand pushes away the clouds and mist, you can see that the refinery, which originally only had a few carriages, has become a train with more than 20 carriages. There are more than a dozen carriages, half of which are dining cars and sleeper cars for daily living, and the remaining half are flat-bed trains, and several wheeled armored vehicles are parked on each flat-bed.

At this time, an armored vehicle was slowly driving down from the flatbed train and stopped steadily on the slope under the middle stage.

This armored vehicle looks normal at first glance, but upon closer inspection, one can find that the cannon that was supposed to be installed on the roof has been replaced by a strange-looking, extremely rough short-barreled cannon with a gun stuck in the muzzle. A large, rusty arrowhead with hideous barbs.

This is a temporary weapon made by the military to hunt giant ants. Because it looks like a harpoon cannon, the soldiers gave it a very vivid name: Ant Fork Cannon.

Before the armored vehicle came to a complete stop, Ye Han, who had been waiting under the roadbed for a long time, waved his hand. Several soldiers walked through the grass and boarded the armored vehicle covered in morning dew.

Ye Han climbed directly to the roof of the armored car, lifted the top cover and jumped into the car, and slapped heavily on the roof of the cab: "GOGOGO!"

The engine roared, and the eight wheels turned simultaneously. The armored vehicle shattered the faint morning fog and drove straight to the ant-occupied area in the distance.

After driving about a kilometer, anthills began to appear on both sides of the armored vehicle. Ye Han shrank into the vehicle and shouted loudly: "Don't drive, just choose a hole!"

The model of the armored vehicle is too old, and the noise of the engine is ridiculously strong. The cabin is the hardest hit area for noise. If you don’t shout at the top of your voice, don’t expect others to hear your voice.

The driver agreed loudly and stopped the armored vehicle near the anthill with a brake.

As the sound of the engine faded away, Ye Han dug his ears and carefully observed with his head. He made sure that there were no giant ants nearby, then opened the top cover again, took out a glass bottle the size of a finger, and threw it near the anthill with shaking hands.

He wanted to smash the glass bottle directly, but he didn't expect that the soil under the anthill was soft, and the glass bottle was directly embedded in the soil, leaving only the bottom of the bottle facing the sky.

Smacking his lips helplessly, Ye Han took out his pistol, shattered the glass bottle with a bang, and immediately retracted into the car.
