Chapter 117

All the key personnel following Xu zhe were settled in the compound of the headquarters of the Lanzhou Military Region. The majestic Beijing Jeep drove into the gate of the military region with sentries on both sides, and an open military training playground came into view.

Six white buildings are distributed around the playground. The main building is also white and equipped with clear sky blue glass. It looks solemn and dignified under the extremely clean sky in the plateau.

The layout here is very well arranged. There are vast courtyards, standard playgrounds and basketball courts. In the northwest, there are rows of military camp accommodation buildings. There are all kinds of military training equipment on the playground and rows of trucks with military green roofs.

Right in the middle of the gate, there is a sculpture carved in red rock. Three huge natural granites are intertwined, symbolizing the close unity of the party, government and army. On it are engraved with three striking characters: Red Army style.

As Hao Zhi walked into the main building, he looked at it curiously. Unlike the underground palace base of the Ming Tombs, there doesn't seem to be much sense of high technology here. There is a simple and even ancient flavor everywhere.

"After all, it's the western region, which is relatively backward." Hao Zhi sighed as he walked.

The architectural style of the main building is also very plain. It is a very common office building pattern built in the 1970s. It has long and dark corridors and protruding eaves, standard seven storey steps and triple mahogany glass doors.

In the middle of the hall, there was a huge military mirror with mahogany edges. The edges were badly worn, and the red paint cracked, revealing the white wooden materials inside.

On the left and right sides, a staircase leads to the second floor in an encircled form. The terrazzo ground has become as smooth as a mirror after years of friction. Although it is flat, many places have cracked. The slender cracks spread like spider webs along the direction of the corridor. The white wall and the lower half of the dado are light green, but they haven't been renovated for a long time, There are traces of mildew under the corner, and large pieces of wall skin are exposed in some places.

In a word, there are traces of years everywhere. In Lanzhou City, a military compound of the last century style, like a living museum from history, seems so independent and out of place.

Without a break, Xu zhe immediately held a "joint meeting of military consuls of all continents of the earth self defense army", which contacted the remaining forces in the World War III region by means of online video.

After entering the conference room, Hao Zhi felt that the conditions here were much worse than those in the underground palace base.

Several seemingly ordinary computers, even with crude cameras, no longer have the large screen as spacious and luxurious as the base. Just put down an electric white curtain on the wall, and the meeting picture is projected on it. The resolution is low. You can't see clearly without pulling the curtain. It's white.

The commanders of each theater joined the conference network one by one, and avatars emerged one by one. Each face looked tired, and several of them hung colors and wrapped their heads.

Xu zhe first listened to the situation reports of each theater, which was basically the same as here. Using the signal source emanating from the dead insect's body, alien war insects exposed the location of most human army headquarters, including the military headquarters hidden in a well tens of meters underground. They were turned out by those beetles like ant nests.

Some coastal areas in North America, Europe and East Africa have been reduced to occupied areas almost without exception.

During the chaotic war, the commanders of each theater were killed one after another. Hao Zhi saw that many of those attending the meeting had changed new people. The intelligence of aliens was accurate, and there were few omissions.

More importantly, due to the unclear communication among countries in the European theater, when the main commander was surrounded, they sent out troops to "keep watch and help each other", but they were surrounded by tactical division. The human forces that originally had the best advantage fell into the encirclement and were destroyed in a large area.

On the American battlefield, although the rescue was stopped in time, nearly half of the troops were lost

Since the siege of the underground palace base ten days ago, the human army has retreated one after another, and all turtles have retreated into the central areas of various continents, slowing down the invasion of alien war insects with barely maintained defense.

"I made a song, General Xu Zhe is really wise!" Hao Zhi sat in the side of the auditorium, sincerely thumbed up and fell in admiration.

Behind him, there was a slight "click click" sound. Hao Zhiyi looked back. Zhang Dian shrunk her neck, bowed her waist, and held a box of nut biscuits. She was eating hard. Her hunger for the reincarnation of a hungry ghost had not passed. She was stained with dregs on her face and looked up and smiled apologetically at everyone, like a cat.

"I said, can't you be a little promising?" Song Xiaojia glanced at her, then pulled out a sauce elbow from his arms, "how much is it worth just eating biscuits?"

As you can see, the main attack means of alien war insects in the world have also changed. In addition to conventional laser weapons, they have abandoned the slow-paced air guns that have been effectively protected by human Ying armor shields and converted into some unknown thermal energy weapons.

The shape of war insects has also changed from locusts to more solid beetles. They also have a special skill, that is, through the vibration of the wing membrane, they instantly raise the air temperature of a large area of the battlefield to nearly 90 degrees!

Countless soldiers, even those wearing Yingjia, were roasted alive because their blood was boiling... "

"Isn't this what the ghost showed us that day? It's so hot that I beg. Fortunately, they don't continue, otherwise we'll become barbecue!" Hao Zhi whispered to Wang Yanke around him. Wang Yanke nodded and motioned him not to speak and continue to listen.

"General..." commander Adan is an Arab nobleman. He wears a white scarf and a black headband around his head. He has a brown rough beard and can hardly see his mouth moving when talking. "We have lost almost 50% of our army troops in this war.

According to statistics, almost all the major heavy-duty Army missile launch bases in the enemy occupied areas were occupied by the enemy, and most of them did not have time to be destroyed. Apart from the Plesetsk base on the western border of horos, in terms of the total number, more than 70% of our earth troops' heavy equipment fell into the hands of aliens, and tanks, combat vehicles and heavy missile launch platforms fell into the hands of aliens In the hands of the enemy.

Now, they can win this war only by using our weapons against us... "

"My God..." Wang Yanke gave a cry of surprise.

Hao Zhi hurriedly turned back and asked, "what's the matter?"

"Didn't you listen? 50% of the army lost!

50% of the global army!

I just searched my information base. The total number of Army forces of the major axis countries in the world exceeds 10 million!

Ten million soldiers... Five million were lost in just one week! "

Hao Zhi can't imagine how heroic and tragic it is for 5 million soldiers to die on the battlefield. It's too far away for him, but what he saw with his own eyes is a living picture of the tragedy of the more than 10000 fugitives in front of the eagle beak rock

When going down the mountain, on the battlefield where you can't see the head at a glance, there are corpses everywhere. It's no exaggeration to say that there are corpses everywhere. If there are 10000 people, you can call them real corpses everywhere. As the saying goes, "there are 10000 people, there is no border and no shore", and the number of people mentioned here is five million!

On the beach of twenty or thirty thousand people, people already feel that they are just a small ant in the sea of people. If they are among five million people, it is like a ear of wheat in the endless wheat field

Five million young people's lives were thrown into the battlefield and turned into fly ash in an instant. Maybe they didn't even see the enemy clearly. Before they could release a gun, they were scorched by the hot air. They didn't even know the cause of their death. The boiling blood, large blisters all over their body, and their hands and feet were swollen and white, Fall down in a painful struggle

Thinking of this, his heavy heart made his chest as heavy as a huge stone, so he sighed heavily.

After listening to the report, Xu zhe stamped back and forth in the room. After thinking for a while, he looked up and asked, "are you clear? What is the thermal weapon used by the new alien war bug?"

All the military experts in the war zones frowned. For several days, they kept analyzing the enemy's weapons and equipment, but they shook their heads without touching their heads.

A US military weapons expert turned on the microphone and explained to Xu zhe: "General, we have analyzed all aspects. If it is a closed space, it is still possible to heat the air through high-energy plasma weapons. However, in a space of tens of thousands of cubic meters, in a battlefield with such great heat dissipation and huge loss, it is an incredible technology to instantly increase the air temperature by tens of degrees and keep it from volatilization..."

"Yes!" the chairman of the Iranian armaments also answered, "later, our experts guessed that they used the infrared directional heating system. However, the infrared thermal energy efficiency is high, but it is also greatly affected by the battlefield environment. More importantly, there will be a lot of loss in the propagation of infrared in general media.

If we want to use infrared or plasma as weapons, the most difficult problem is that the earth's atmosphere is almost open.

Imagine that we use the air conditioner to heat up the air in a room of more than ten square meters, at least through the machine preheating, air convection and closing the window for insulation, so that we can feel the obvious rise of the temperature in ten minutes.

The alien technology almost completes the whole heating process in an instant. You know, the air itself is not thermally conductive. If you want to fully heat up, you must have a large area of hot air convection, but according to our observation, there is no trace of wind blowing on the battlefield... "

Everyone was silent. After a long time, suddenly, a small female voice sounded in the corner: "what if it's... Microwave weapons?"

Everyone's eyes turned to Hao Zhi. As expected, it was Wang Yanke around him!

"We have also considered the possibility of microwave as an RF weapon!

However, according to our current understanding, the generation of microwave requires a very high-power radiation source. In order to achieve the lethality of heating several square kilometers, aliens almost need to take the energy body as big as blood moon as the RF emission source.

Moreover, even if they do, the blood moon is so far from the ground that the microwave it emits will escape before reaching the ground. The microwave is greatly affected by oxygen and moisture in the air, which is very easy to cause energy attenuation.

Unless they establish a large-area high-power gain antenna as a transfer station in the mid air between the blood moon and the ground, they can maintain the continuous transmission and killing of microwaves. In addition, in order to carry out directional attacks, they also need to build a gain antenna base tower on the ground to receive the microwave transmission from the air base station again, and then amplify and radiate again... "

"It's very much like the eunuchs who preached for the emperor in the imperial palace of the ancient Qing Dynasty. They stood at intervals of dozens of meters, one by one, and shouted their words to the gate of the palace to prevent the dissipation of sound waves." Wang Yanke smiled.

She walked slowly to the front of the venue, then smiled gently and said, "haven't you considered why the war insects must form a battle array to form an air warming effect?

A single war worm hardly has this ability. "

After thinking for a while, the weapon expert suddenly answered: "yes! Our thinking has been limited to the decreasing decline of RF signal. We only pay attention to the role of blood moon as the RF emission source and ignore the role of a single beetle!"

Wang Yanke nodded approvingly to the weapon expert and continued to say his idea: "therefore, they may not need to establish a large and bulky main transmitting power supply like the blood moon on the ground, but just use the blood moon directly.

The main difficulty in the realization of this technology is how to prevent the microwave from escaping in the air. I guess they are likely to use war insects as ground microwave receiving stations, taking advantage of their huge number. The high-frequency vibration of their charged wing membranes seems to be receiving high-frequency microwave and strengthening its reflection! "

"But... The distance between the blood moon and the ground is so large that even if the microwave jet generated by it can be transmitted to the ground, there is nothing left!" the expert put forward his own point of view.

Wang Yanke turned around, picked up a chalk on the blackboard behind him, and drew a circle above the blackboard as the blood moon.

Then, at the bottom of the blackboard, more than a dozen circles were drawn to represent ground war insects.

"Maybe the high-frequency electronic pulse reflected by a war bug doesn't play a role in heating the air at all, but the terrible thing is that thousands of war bugs gather together.

In order to prevent the microwave from escaping in a large space, the flying saucer in the air is likely to be a mutually echoing and three-dimensional gain antenna array. After the original microwave signal sent by the blood moon is transmitted to the ground war insects, each war insect is both a receiving tower and a gain antenna reflecting microwave,

They strengthen the received microwave through the wing membrane vibration, reflect it back to the sky again, and then it is received by the flying saucer in the air. It is reflected by the same principle, just like invisibly turning the battlefield into a "limited space".

In this way, within the range of their array, they can maintain the continuous enhancement of microwave without worrying about loss! "Wang Yanke said. On the blackboard between the marked flying saucer and the ground war insects, he brushed several huge zigzags to represent the path of invisible microwave in the air.

Her voice was not strong, but she spoke her opinion decisively: "so, although the soldiers are dead hot, you can't find evidence that the air is heated at all. Except for the human body, other vehicles, weapons, trees and even paper on the battlefield have no signs of burning. Am I right?

Microwave directly acts on the water molecules in the target object! Just like the bread heated in the microwave oven, when the outside is not very hot, the jam with a lot of water inside the bread has been very hot, which is the same reason!

Only for "water" heating, this killing method is really tailor-made for earth humans with a proportion of more than 60% of water in mammalian human species! "

Wang Yanke's explanation stunned the weapon experts present. The problems they had racked their brains to understand for several days were solved one by one by her. It was really impressive!

But at the same time, they are also more impressed by the strength of alien technology and the perfect formulation of battlefield strategy. Compared with human guns and weapons that must be aimed to kill their opponents, this large-area weapon kills people invisibly, and the accuracy rate is 100%, which has to make everyone fall into meditation. Although the penetration of microwave is limited, the area is too large and the defense is more difficult

"But!" General Xu zhe suddenly smiled confidently. He helped everyone dispel the inferiority complex of this news. With a big hand, he said, "the blood moon people have their weapons against us... We also have lethal weapons specifically against alien war insects. Moreover, our weapons may have more significant effects. As long as one week, the battlefield situation will be reversed immediately!"

His words immediately shocked everyone. Everyone looked at each other. No one could guess what Xu zhe was referring to.

The combat effectiveness of the air force was completely defeated by flying saucers, and the navy was almost wiped out when the warworm troops landed. Now, the strength of the army has been halved, and more than half of the only heavy weapons that mankind can rely on have fallen into the hands of the enemy.

What exactly would this "new weapon" he said be
