One Hundred and Fifty-Five Chapters
Spread and spread, search and search again, the giant ants on the road don't even look at it, in order to extend the reconnaissance distance, Long Jianguo did not hesitate to reduce the number of passengers in order to load more supplies, the troops leave for a few days, eat and live in armored vehicles Here, all contact with the battalion headquarters is by radio.
In order to prolong the driving distance, each armored vehicle carries two huge oil drums on its back, supplying fuel directly to the vehicle... Ye Han had only heard that there were such quick-disposable external auxiliary fuel tanks on aircraft tanks, but he did not expect that armored vehicles also had such Being able to install this thing can directly increase the battery life of the armored vehicle by more than several times.
But in private, Huya complained that this thing is not a standard equipment on armored vehicles, but a temporary substitute that the mechanic repair team fiddled with under Long Jianguo's instructions. It is equivalent to carrying two oversized incendiary bombs on the back of the car, and one shot will definitely kill you.
Food and lodging is not a problem, and soldiers can overcome problems if they have problems, but the problem of Lazard will definitely kill people.
At first glance, this kind of problem seems to be out of the question, but it is closely related to the interests of everyone... Think about it, what kind of giant insects are not allowed to lurk outside the car, and you have to risk your life to leave the armored car, so shit and pee It's all done in the car.
Working in a limited space is not only a matter of smell, but also hassle in sanitation and cleaning.
The final solution was to bring a batch of anesthetics to each vehicle and throw them out of the vehicle to establish a temporary safety zone. Soldiers who needed convenience wore gas masks to solve the problem quickly, and soldiers who did not need convenience stayed in the vehicle to cover their comrades.
The soldiers all laughed and said that the status of our soldiers is getting higher and higher, and we have to arrange a guard post before even taking a shit.
In just a few days, the troops advanced more than 40 kilometers to the mountainous area on the 30-kilometer-wide reconnaissance surface, and the reconnaissance area reached more than 120 square kilometers.
The reconnaissance speed of the troops is not fast. This is because the terrain in the forest is complex. Even halfway up the mountain, you can find ponds and mud pits. Unless the tracked armored vehicle can be unobstructed, if the big eight wheels get stuck, the chances of climbing out by themselves are really not high. .
Since you can't leave the road, you can only think of other ways.
The wisdom of the people is infinite, and the soldiers really came up with some simple and practical solutions.
For example, the parking and observation method is to park the armored vehicle in a relatively open place with a better view, observe the surrounding situation, and see if there are giant bees infested - this method is suitable for environments with more flowers nearby.
Another example is the method of climbing high and looking into the distance, which is to drive the armored vehicle to a higher road, remove the vegetation that obstructs the line of sight, and observe the valleys and depressions condescendingly - this method has a large observation area, but the mountains are densely forested, unless giant bees fly out of the canopy layer, otherwise the observation effect will be limited.
It's also like squatting in a flower garden to abide by the law... In fact, it is to find a place with a lot of flowers and stay there to see if there are giant bees coming to collect honey.
Then there is the population competition method, which is a bit nonsensical to say, the general idea is to see if there are ant colonies nearby. Giant ants have the ability to jump and prey. The relationship between the two is the relationship between the hunter and the prey. There will be giant bees.
The inference is somewhat arbitrary, and it sounds reasonable, but everyone doubts this theory. Only when no other method can be found, will they use pheromones to lure the giant ants and indirectly judge whether there are giant bees nearby.
The soldiers were all focused on how to find the giant bee, but Long Jianguo kept trying to figure out why the higher-ups changed the order and did not allow the giant bee to be eliminated.
He asked a few familiar comrades in the regiment to inquire about the news, but the answers were all unclear without exception.
Although you can find acquaintances in the division, the communication between the army and the outside world depends entirely on the radio. It is nothing to find someone in the regiment. It is a big taboo to contact the division directly across the regiment. Some people in the regiment made a note in their hearts, and the gain outweighed the loss.
Long Jianguo once again turned his idea on Ye Han, and opened a separate communication channel: "Dongdongyao call Dongyaoliang,
Hear please answer! "
"Dongyaoer received it, please tell me!" Ye Han replied on the radio.
"Report your current location!"
"XXX east longitude, XXX north latitude."
Long Jianguo found Ye Han's location on the map, and moved his finger a little forward along the road: "Move two, stop the search immediately, and head southeast."
"Southeast direction?" Ye Han was taken aback, "Move, what did you find in the southeast direction?"
"Nothing was found in the southeast direction." Long Jianguo said, "After driving 20 kilometers along the road, get on the expressway, turn to the east for 40 kilometers and arrive at Yonghe County."
Yonghe County?
Ye Han thought about it for a long time, and only thought of such a place on the map, which seemed to be a small town in the branch of Montenegro. He couldn't help but asked in doubt: "What's wrong with Yonghe?"
Long Jianguo said: "Yonghe County is very good, and you can still make calls there. You should rush over there immediately, contact your little girlfriend, and inquire about the situation... Well, the situation of the giant bee."
"Oh! Got it!" Ye Han suddenly realized.
"Be careful to keep it secret, don't let irrelevant people know." Long Jianguo urged.
After cutting off the communication, the veteran opened the map and looked at it for a long time before exclaiming: "Ye Pai, no wonder there is nothing wrong with Yonghe, look!"
On the map, Yonghe County is impressively within the ant-occupied area, but there is a big river in the northeast, southwest and south of Yonghe County. The two rivers flow from the periphery of the county town and finally converge into a river in the northwest direction of the county town.
Yonghe County, which is surrounded by water on three sides, is like a peninsula. Needless to say, the river water must have kept the giant ants out of the county town and saved this small town in the mountains.
The population living in the Montenegro mountains is indeed sparse, but that is compared with the big cities on the plains. In fact, the entire Montenegro area is densely populated with cities and villages, with an average altitude of about 600 meters, and the altitude of some towns is even as high as 800 to 900 meters. Even in areas above 1,000 meters above sea level, there are many villages and towns.
Ye Han has not figured out until now why the giant ants and giant mantises ran towards Jingjiang with all their strength. Jingjiang had to give up because of the giant worm's pressure, but few towns in the mountains were attacked by giant worms!
According to known public information, the first village attacked by giant ants was not discovered until two days after Jingjiang was abandoned.
The reason why it was discovered instead of appearing was because no one knew when the giant ants attacked that remote village, and hundreds of leather villagers from more than ten families disappeared so quietly.
It was rumored afterwards that on the day of the incident, the local police station received a strange call to the police, but due to poor signal, the police could not hear a complete message after the call was connected. The operator was negligent and directly treated it as a harassing call.
