Chapter 677

"Damn it, how did these alien animals get to the bottom of Honghu Lake?" In the rear headquarters, an officer with a general on his shoulder was swearing: "the troops deployed in Honghu area can't resist such an attack at all!"

In fact, it is not only the defense line in Honghu area that cannot be blocked, but it is difficult to find a defense line that can block this double offensive along the coast of Dongting Lake at this time.

That is to say, Chen Xin's city can resist this kind of attack by fighting with alien creatures in the empty city left behind after evacuating from the urban area. The defense line in other areas can only rely on heavy firepower and front-line troops.

At this time, Chen Xin was also in the headquarters. After hearing the general's complaint, he took a look at the map and said, "it should be dug along the groundwater layer. The groundwater is not completely frozen, and the soil layer is relatively soft, so it's easier to dig. In terms of the alien species' regardless of the cost, there is no problem in digging."

"Is there any way to curb their offensive?" The general inquired about Chen Xin. Chen Xin's miraculous performance all the time made him have special expectations.

"Have you tried the bomb? Or will they shoot missiles into these channels? " Chen Xin put forward his idea.

"The air force and rocket forces are trying, but it doesn't work well." The general shook his head. Chen Xin's method had been tried in other places for a long time: "although it is true that the passage can be collapsed, these alien animals don't care about being collapsed. They can dig through the collapsed place very soon. Even if they can't, they will dig in other directions. The passage can only be blocked for a while."

"Well... That's troublesome. If you want to get it done once and for all, it's very difficult to change the current situation unless you can blow up the whole underground of Honghu Lake and make it impossible for alien creatures to dig through in a short time." Chen Xin also shook his head and blasted the whole underground of Honghu. Of course, he could do it, but if he wanted to do so, it was obviously not the decision that he and the general in front of him could make.

The general also understood Chen Xin's meaning, thought about it and said, "I'll go to the high level and apply for the use of nuclear weapons!"

In fact, the military had the idea of using nuclear weapons to solve the problem of alien creatures before, but it was not able to make a decision because of the possible impact of using nuclear weapons and the fact that it might not be able to effectively kill the alien creatures underground.

Now both the general and Chen Xin understand that if they want to stop the emergence of alien creatures in the underground of Honghu Lake, they have to blow down the whole lake basin and let the foundation collapse to completely block these channels.

If we want to achieve this, we can only use nuclear weapons to achieve such great power.

After all, the Honghu area has just seen the emergence of alien creatures. If the lake basin is blown down, it can still stop alien creatures.

Moreover, the area of Honghu Lake is much smaller than that of Dongting Lake, and the equivalent needed to collapse the lake basin is not so large, so tactical nuclear bombs can be used to achieve this goal.

However, when the general was preparing to apply to the high level for the use of tactical nuclear bombs, Chen Xin was worried about other things.

"Do you have a map of the groundwater distribution in the whole Dongting Lake area?" Chen Xin inquired to one of the staff.

"This... We don't have it. We're going to find it." The staff officer rummaged through some maps in the headquarters, but did not reply to Chen Xin.

Hearing this, Chen Xin shook his head. Instead of asking him to look for the map, he just turned his eyes to the map displayed on the large screen in the headquarters, frowning and thinking.

After hesitating for a moment, Chen Xin said to the staff on one side: "let the surrounding areas have an inspection. I suspect that the alien creatures have not only launched an attack on the Honghu area."

"Not only did they launch an attack on Honghu area? Academician Chen, why do you say that? " At this time, the general heard Chen Xin's words and immediately issued a question.

Only one Honghu area has caused trouble. Now the whole defense line has been affected. If there is another breakthrough, the general thinks it will be impossible to defend.

"Since alien creatures can dig along the aquifer to Honghu Lake, they can naturally follow the aquifer and spread to other parts of the Dongting Lake system." Chen Xin said, pointing to the rivers flowing into Dongting Lake on the map.

"Ah! That's it When the general saw the direction that Chen Xin was pointing to, he immediately felt frightened and said to the staff on one side, "hurry up, release the warning according to what academician Chen said, and check the cities around the Dongting Lake water system!"

Chen Xin's worry is that aliens will dig underground water along the river flowing into Dongting Lake, and then spread to other places.

If this is the case, the defense line set up by the military along the Dongting Lake will become meaningless, just like the bypassed Maginot defense line, and become a useless device.

Moreover, Chen Xin's worry is likely to become a reality, not just a groundless worry.

After all, since alien creatures can launch attacks in Honghu area, who can guarantee that they will not launch attacks in other directions?

Looking at the staff to convey the warning, General Chen Xinhe felt like he was on pins and needles.

It's just that they obviously can't just wait here. Although the Honghu defense line under attack has gradually stabilized after mobilizing other troops to reinforce, it obviously can't solve the problem.

"Academician Chen, apart from using nuclear weapons to blow up the whole basin of Honghu Lake, is there any other way?" The general asked Chen Xin.

Faced with this problem, Chen Xin hesitated for a moment and said with hesitation: "yes, but it's more difficult than using a nuclear bomb."

"What's the way?" When the general heard Chen Xin say so, he asked him.

It doesn't matter whether it's difficult or not. As long as we can solve the problem, we have to solve it no matter how difficult it is.

In this regard, Chen Xin can only shake his head and said: "according to the previous anatomy and research of alien creatures, we can preliminarily determine that the alien creatures are all under the command of the upper node. If we can dispatch a troop to find out and eliminate the upper node, it is possible to curb the enemy's attack."

"Isn't that beheading?" The general responded that this is the decapitation operation of raiding local headquarters with special forces commonly used in modern war, which immediately made him eager to try.

However, Chen Xin shook his head again and said helplessly: "decapitation is a very practical tactic, but the problem is that we don't know where the upper nodes of alien creatures are, and we don't have a special force that can carry out decapitation. This method obviously doesn't work."
