Chapter 143 Taking over, second-level legion, two lure poles
Lin Feng’s stern orders...
Carrying the powerful momentum of a second-level peak awakener.
My own aura shocked everyone present.
So as soon as he finished speaking, the company and platoon-level commanders, who were only captains and lieutenants in front of them, quickly walked back to the defense line stations they were responsible for.
The farthest edge of the defense line is a full five kilometers away from the square. Fortunately, these grassroots commanders have the lowest awakening level and are in the early stage of the first level. They can easily run at a speed of more than thirty meters per second, five kilometers including the round trip. It only takes six or seven minutes.
However, considering that the lower-level soldiers were just reinforcements, including the time for announcement and convening, Lin Feng waited for a full half hour.
During this period, new recruits came to the square one after another.
The large square is three hundred meters long and one hundred meters wide. It is more than enough to accommodate tens of thousands of people.
Lin Feng expects that only two to three thousand people will come at most.
After all, I am envious. I really want them to leave the solid fortress defense line, without any defensive front in the wild, and face the attack of the insect tide with their flesh and blood bodies...
Not everyone has this fearless courage to regard death as home. of.
In fact, the moment Lin Feng stepped into the second line of defense, the selection of the remaining fifteen thousand recruits had quietly begun.
He cannot train everyone like a nanny.
As the level of the Awakened increases, their own strength gradually becomes equal to that of the Zerg, and even surpasses them when fully armed. The real war no longer relies on numbers to fill the gap.
Cultivating a group of more than a hundred second-level awakened people, or genetic warriors, is far more rewarding than the hard work of these fifteen thousand people.
Lin Feng does not need so many combat units.
Besides, he doesn’t have the energy resources to waste on this group of people who are neither relatives nor friends.
However, what Lin Feng did not expect was...
Originally, it was estimated that there were less than two or three thousand soldiers who volunteered to go out to fight in the city, but in the end, more than five thousand people came.
reaching one-third of the total.
These soldiers, followed by their company commanders, occupy a small half of the square, arranged in order from north to south, forming small square formations.
There are about a hundred of them, ranging from forty to fifty people.
Lin Feng nodded with satisfaction, and then motioned to the top management of the Thirteenth Division to conduct a handover ceremony.
Although the others felt indignant that Lin Feng made a high-profile appearance and ignored them in high positions, the teacher and elders could see that Lin Feng had his own opinions and plans for the future war.
And it's very personal.
In the past, personality charm was a double-edged sword, but now he has his own strength as a guarantee. As long as Lin Feng can maintain his absolute strength, no one can shake his status.
At the same time, this team will also become a tiger and wolf division that dares to fight and kill.
The Thirteenth Division in the future will surely become a sharp sword among humans to fight against the Zerg invasion, penetrating directly into the heart of the enemy.
Looking at Lin Feng's tall and tall figure, the teacher clasped the rank of senior colonel on his armored shoulders, and then saluted in farewell.
Lin Feng and behind him, the elite soldiers led by Li Ran beside the chariot, raised their heads and held their chests high, waving and saluting majestically.
After watching the top management of the Thirteenth Division leave...
Lin Feng immediately turned around and looked at the recruits who were left behind. He mobilized the momentum of the second-level peak awakener and issued a powerful Declaration:
"I should have informed you yesterday that with the relocation of important industries in Jincheng City, the Wucheng Blockade has completed its strategic mission..."
"But The 13th Division cannot take everyone away. The division headquarters currently loses its logistics supply. Without me, today’s lunch will be your last meal.”
"Then announce the disbandment and survive on your own."
"But now that I, Lin Feng, have been invited to be your top officer, I will naturally be responsible for everything."
"Including logistics. Weapons and equipment, food and medicine, and even promotion and awakening!”
“And the basic condition for all of this is absolute obedience to orders, including going out of the city to kill insects and facing the insect tide!”
“This! Your officers should have made everything clear, and now... I'll give you another chance!"
"Listen up, if you are not afraid of death, let me keep those who are dedicated to killing insects! If you just want to make a living, you can go back to hide within the defense line now, or leave here and get out of Wucheng."
< br>"Of course, there will never be any obstruction in making a decision now, let alone the so-called defection. Once you decide whether to go or stay..."
"If something happens in the future, don't blame me. They are ruthless!”
“You decide for yourself, everyone!”
As soon as he finished speaking, the whole place was silent.
Everyone looked at each other in shock. After a long time, no one made the decision to leave.
Especially when I saw the eight bright black tanks at the front, near the land cruiser, and the neatly arranged black-armored soldiers, holding large-caliber weapons...
The recruits were full of envy. , I wish I could join them directly and become a member of the brave warriors outside the city.
The scene of the Armada's massive bombing of the Zerg yesterday and its wanton galloping in its territory is still vivid in my mind. The soldiers who came were all mentally prepared, and they were extremely yearning for it in their hearts.
When Lin Feng saw this, he nodded with satisfaction.
These more than 5,000 soldiers do not all need to become a second-order legion and enter the underground insect nest to fight. In the end, only the most brave hundred or ten people need to be selected.
But they can drive tanks and cooperate with land cruisers to fight against the invasion of Zerg and deal with large numbers of low-level Zerg swarms.
The two work together to truly contain the Zerg.
When it comes to fighting out of the city, you can't escape the Zerg's pursuit and interception by relying on your legs. Although the awakened ones have strong explosive power, due to human physical defects and small stature, they are unable to engage in sustained high-intensity combat. After each fierce battle, they need to replenish their energy as soon as possible.
So it is necessary to prepare a corresponding number of tanks.
Five thousand people, that's at least two hundred vehicles...
A flying wing chariot replica requires ten tons of fine steel to synthesize.
Two thousand tons of fine steel is hard to find in Wucheng right now.
Only the heavy industrial zone in the south of Jincheng, and perhaps some fixed facilities that cannot be moved, can cut and collect thousands of tons of fine steel.
Fortunately, in terms of weapons, the Thirteenth Division could not take away all of them, so it left behind more than 90% of its equipment, including fuel, medicine and other supplies.
These are present in the rear area, especially weapons and equipment. After the military industry enters full-scale production, the production explosion may be faster than the consumption on the front line.
It consumes less than transporting it thousands of miles back to the rear.
For the time being, the fleet members will be rotated to get familiar with the operation of the tank. Once all the replicas are in place, the all-out war will begin.
And that was and would be the beginning of Lin Feng’s first challenge to kill the Mother Queen and advance to a high level!
Wanting to kill a high-level Queen Mother is not just as simple as going deep into the insect nest and killing it all the way to the end.
First, the low-level insect swarms on the periphery must be dealt with, which requires the containment and annihilation of the fleet. Secondly, the underground third-level and second-level insect nests must be delayed and blocked by the second-level legions born in the future...
Finally, Lin Feng, who was fully armed, launched a beheading operation on the lowest level of the Zerg mother nest, killing the entire Zerg terminal controller, the high-level Mother Queen.
Of course, if you can use the genetic radiation skill activated by breaking through the last level of mental attributes to successfully awaken Jiacheng’s mother Queen Chiyi, and then release her genetic seal, with the cooperation of the two, it will be possible Can be completed more smoothly, the first kill of the high-level Queen Mother.
At this moment, five thousand soldiers were harvested at once. Lin Feng's divergent thoughts followed Li Ran's report and he came to his senses:
"Reporting to the commander, the first batch of reserve army members have been registered and reviewed. , has been selected!”
Lin Feng nodded. This is the second thing that needs to be completed today in front of all the soldiers participating in the battle.
The three fires for the new officer to take office have been burned out. After establishing deterrence and self-prestige, it is natural to give these recruits who have just joined the group and have passed the psychological test...
A little sweetness, And more expectations:
“Let them come up!”
Following Lin Feng’s order, Li Ran called out the names of seven people from the one hundred and sixty fully armed soldiers behind him. .
There are low-level soldiers and team captains among them, but without exception, they are all lv19 awakened people who have reached the late stage of the first level. At the same time, they have been selected through various fist and kick competitions to select the strong melee warriors!
Second-level awakeners have extremely strong individual strength. It would be a waste if they were only used to fire cannons from a distance.
Lin Feng's second-level army plan, with these people, ascending to the high platform, is about to get on the right track.
The first one on the list is actually Liu Yi, who broke his leg last time. After drinking more than half a bottle of nutrient solution, his physical attributes are slightly higher than others.
Seeing the other party, Lin Feng showed a smile, and then clapped his hands. He saw the tail of the land cruiser behind him, and the closed hatch slowly opened, revealing fifteen three-meter-high, snow-white flesh. Insect eggs.
Feeling the presence of a large amount of human presence nearby, these insect eggs kept squirming and struggling.
Lin Feng waved his hand and asked Li Ran to take out seven of them and place them in front of the seven people one by one.
During this period, facing the doubtful looks of more than 5,000 people in front of him, he continued to introduce:
"You may not know what this thing is, so now I will do it myself. Let me tell you..."
"This is the second-level insect egg of the Zerg race, the intermediate form of the low-level black spine insect that transforms into the second-level tiger spine insect."
"Having introduced this, some of you may have guessed it. Yes, as long as you kill this insect egg, you can directly enable a late-stage first-order awakener to start a deep awakening again and be promoted to become an extremely powerful person. "Second-level awakeners!"
"As you advance to the second-level awakeners, your abilities will be further improved and you will become a veritable superman!"
"These insect eggs only exist!" In the insect nest two hundred meters underground, only by entering it, passing through the dangerous and complicated wormholes, and killing the second-order insects that come to stop them can they be brought back."
"That's why they are precious. , I won’t go into details.”
“But today, it is not just a reward, but also represents a kind of responsibility and obligation!”
"After becoming a second-level awakened person, while enjoying strong strength and status, you should also be clear about the mission that humans should shoulder in this life-and-death war!"
"So, these soldiers need to Become the most dangerous second-level guard in the team, follow me deep into the insect nest, and conquer the second-level insect race!"
"And now, you are about to witness the birth of these warriors together!"
As soon as the words fell, the seven people on the stage raised their lv9 long knives and neatly eliminated the insect eggs that were still squirming in front of them.
After completion, Lin Feng asked them to take away the entire egg and drink the organic nutrient solution inside. Not only could they successfully complete the second level of awakening, but they would also make up for the shortcomings of human physique, leaving only 150 points of physical fitness. , breaking through the upper limit of 200.
After doing all this, Lin Feng looked at the extremely envious expressions of the new soldiers at his feet, and the corners of Lin Feng's mouth slowly raised...
He then asked Li Ran to reorganize and reorganize the newly joined soldiers. The grassroots commanders left behind by the teacher were basically Qin Hu's former subordinates. They were naturally familiar with Li Ran and showed no resistance when faced with the redistribution.
After the solution was completed, the time came to noon.
Lin Feng used a nearby university as a temporary base and mobilized a group of soldiers to carry out the war-ready canned food shipped back from Jincheng from the rear of the battleship.
We borrowed the facilities of the university cafeteria and prepared a fairly sumptuous lunch for the five thousand soldiers with individual soldier rations.
The taste of meat is slightly worse.
After one o'clock, everyone had enough to eat and drink, so he ordered these soldiers to return to the defense line and replace the 10,000 new soldiers who were still in the defense line.
Now that the Haicheng Zerg have retreated to the eastern suburbs of the city, there is no pressure on the second line of defense for the time being.
But certain patrols and surveillance are still needed.
When the remaining 10,000 people gathered in the square under the leadership of grassroots commanders.
Seeing that their formation was not in order and seemed a bit messy, Lin Feng just said a few words briefly and then handed it over to Li Ran and others.
For these new recruits who dare not go out to fight in the city, they can only be sent to be responsible for logistics management.
If you want to leave, you will not stay, but there are many dangers on the front line and there is a lack of food in the rear.
Unable to support them, only low-level enhanced people of levels three, four and five traveled thousands of kilometers and returned to the safe zone in the rear area.
Furthermore, even if you arrive successfully, you may not be better off than you are now.
Of course there are many of them. At first, I just saw the recruitment advertisement, so I joined the 13th Division enthusiastically. As a result, with the destruction of the first line of defense, I personally experienced the capriciousness and ruthlessness of the battlefield. ...
Some people have already begun to think about quitting.
So there are hundreds of people who choose to quit directly, leave the team, and stay away from the frontline fighting.
In the end, a total of 10,230 people were counted, and they were appointed as logistics auxiliaries in the Thirteenth Division.
As the lowest level, they no longer have to fight on the front lines. Although they can get rations, they still need to do a lot of work.
In addition to counting and collecting the materials and equipment left behind by the Thirteenth Division...
At ten o'clock in the afternoon after dinner, more than 8,000 people, led by Li Ran, all arrived. The shores of Taihu Lake a few kilometers away behind you.
Li Ran picked up a big loudspeaker and, together with other grassroots commanders, shouted to the auxiliary soldiers:
"Have you seen this Taihu Lake? Your mission today is to If someone catches it, it will cost at least fifty pounds of fish, and preferably a big fish!”
"As for what method you use, it's up to you!"
"Whether it's Taiwan fishing, raft fishing or lure fishing, or even directly casting a net and pulling the net, as long as you can get the fish up, it's not poisonous and can be eaten, it's up to you What to do!”
After finishing speaking, more than 8,000 people gathered around the east bank of Taihu Lake and let out amazing cheers!
Hunting is an instinctive desire engraved in human genes. Especially in peaceful times, fishing and fishing are the only ones that are not completely banned, which naturally gives birth to a large number of fishermen.
Now open to hunting...
Immediately, many people turned their attention to the large number of abandoned battery cars in the city, on the roadsides and in residential areas.
Although the battery inside cannot go very far, it can store four or five kilowatt hours of electricity in the battery.
As the saying goes, with two fishing poles, the fish catches pile up...
Three degrees of electricity were released into the lake, and the Buddha gave me a hundred catties of fish.
However, these can only be used in shallow water areas on the shore. More than ten meters away, at a depth of seven to eight meters, there are still large fish weighing tens or even hundreds of kilograms hidden...
At this time, the fishing team appeared.
After more than a dozen fishing gear shops were cleared, a spectacular scene of thousands of people fishing took place on the shores of Taihu Lake.
Until late at night, many people still stood at their posts.
Looking at the mountains of fish caught outside the canteen...
In just one afternoon, hundreds of tons of fresh fish were obtained.
We can only send thousands more people to dispose of it as soon as possible, break open the belly of the fish, remove the internal organs, apply salt to preserve it and dry it in the sun.
The grilled fish, boiled fish, and braised fish prepared in the canteen have been placed on all tables.
And this time, the all-you-can-eat fish feast made everyone rub their bellies and burp, and they were so happy.
Unfortunately, in the next half month, everyone will feel strong physical discomfort whenever they see fish products...
But this is also the only source of high-quality protein.
.........
Late in the night, Lin Feng summoned everyone to report the situation.
In the afternoon, Chen Yanyan piloted a land cruiser and led the fleet to attack directly outside the first line of defense. She continued to annihilate the insect swarms hidden at the entrance of the wormholes. At the same time, she used shotguns to blow up and erase all the holes on the surface, thus Increase the Zerg's mining workload.
Let it be tired of repairing the insect nest and have no energy to expand.
During this period, the five thousand defenders within the second line of defense were also allowed to board chariots for rotation, or enter the East District of Wucheng, which had been reduced to ruins, to clean up the battlefield.
Deal with some lone low-level red beetles and seriously injured black spine beetles that are still alive, and collect scattered materials.
After taking over the remnants of the 13th Division, through Lin Feng's planning and layout, the organizational structure has taken initial shape.
In addition to the command system composed of high-level members, other second-level awakeners will serve as an elite second-level guard regiment, responsible for following Lin Feng and conquering the interior of the insect nest.
The second is the 5,000 defenders in the defensive fortress, who serve as second-class soldiers. Currently, some of them are following Chen Yanyan’s fleet to fight against the insect tide army. They will first increase their own awakening level and at the same time reduce the effective strength of the insect race. .
The rest are responsible for cleaning the battlefield and collecting biological materials from the Zerg, especially the giant jaws of the Black Spine Worm.
This is closely related to the defensive equipment on their bodies, so naturally they will not neglect it.
The last 10,000 new recruits serve as auxiliaries and are responsible for providing logistical support.
Including collecting food, delivering supplies, etc.
This organizational structure is actually very similar to that of the Zerg.
But the first step to defeat powerful enemies is to learn their patterns, and then optimize this pattern to completely defeat the opponent.
At the end of the report, Li Ran mentioned the biggest problem he was facing right now:
“The doctors in the field hospital behind the second line of defense were also taken away... Although we have medicine now, we are in urgent need of frontline troops. There are only a few doctors.”
“When cleaning the battlefield this afternoon, several soldiers were unfortunately attacked by a lurking swarm of insects. Although their lives were safe in the end, their arms and legs were inevitably broken...”
"Even if the wound stopped bleeding, there was no corresponding surgeon after it was transported back. In the end, it was saved with organic nutrient solution."
"Otherwise, it will become disabled and lose combat effectiveness. In the future, it will only Can be used as an auxiliary soldier.”
Lin Feng looked heavy and nodded:
"I will solve this matter."
The five thousand soldiers are not too many, but not too few, mainly Lin Feng Feng currently has no replenishment of troops, and every time he loses one, he loses a seed for the future legion.
In the past, there were only a hundred people in the team, and there were not many injured members. Even if there were injuries, they could rely on the second-order insect eggs to repair and heal themselves.
If today's army of thousands of people only relied on organic nutrient solution, Lin Feng would not be so wealthy.
There is an urgent need to replenish medical personnel.
For a moment, Lin Feng thought of Liu Yueqi's aunt, the newly engaged young woman Liu Ruojiao. She is a professor of surgery at the university, and her family is also an academic family. She must know many medical staff.
Or you can ask Ling Shuyan for help, but they are all technicians from the Biological Research Institute. Leave the wounded to them for treatment, and the ones returned in the end may be deformed monsters with Zerg limbs...
< br>It is more reliable to let Han Yuxin first search for survivors related to the medical industry in Jincheng.
…………
At the same time...
Laoshan Military Restricted Area, Federal Institute of Biology.
Qin Hu has awakened from the dormant warehouse.
The atrophied muscle tissue on the body has recovered as before.
He looked at the woman beside him and asked helplessly:
"How long can I live?"
Ling Shuyan's answer was somewhat unclear:
"Are you sure about what I just asked? Is there really a genetic warrior in Lin Feng's team?"
Qin Hu frowned slightly, feeling a little unhappy:
"Have I not confirmed it many times? Yes, there is indeed one, and he is still a student who escaped from Haicheng together. His condition is very bad, He overuses genetic assimilation even more than me, and the Zerg characteristics that appear on his body are already covering his whole body, but he is also a metamorphosis with strong combat power..."
"One person single-handedly defeated three second-order late-stage tiger spine insects, and also killed two samurai hunting insects at the same time."
"Didn't he undergo the transformation surgery at your place?"
After confirming again and again, Ling Shuyan did not answer, but felt numb...
Somewhat absent-mindedly, she replied as she walked:
"Every time you overuse the assimilation of the genetic fluid, your remaining time will be , it will be directly reduced by half.”
"A second-level awakened person can have a telomere metabolism lifespan of about 500 years. In your current state, you should only have less than fifty years left..."
Qin Hu frowned and his face was ashen. Staring at the woman's leaving figure, he shouted in a deep voice:
"When will this flaw be perfected? Isn't the new second-order Zerg brought back this time enough!?"
"In the battle to defend the capital, in my current state, I won't be able to survive much longer. Do you still want to achieve the plan of forcibly advancing the genetic warriors?!"
Ling Shuyan suddenly stopped and tilted her head slightly He turned his head, revealing the perfect profile curve, and his dark pupils flashed slightly behind the lenses, and he replied lightly:
"Don't worry, everything is within plan."
6k today, this month ends.
The next volume of Darkness Falls is almost over.
