The Yuan people like to attack at night.
After all, for them without "sight", night is the best protection.
Judging from the summary of "war experience" some time ago, the Yuan people's tactics are generally to assemble and march in advance, rush to the vicinity of the human base before dusk, and then slowly form an encirclement. When night falls completely, they They came swarming from all directions.
Based on the previous experiences, the base military zone directly chose to take the initiative this time.
When the first batch of rockets were thrown, three to four hundred Yuan people were killed and blown to pieces on the spot.
The power of human thermal weapons is quite good when faced with flesh and blood.
But the loss of three to four hundred people was almost nothing to the Yuan people.
When the second batch of rockets flew down, they chose to attack in advance.
A tidal wave of people surged out from the distant jungle at an extremely fast speed. Even if the light of the star had not completely set, ordinary people would see them as a "tide" and could only see the group clearly but not the individual.
However, the military area was well prepared.
Around Forest Town, after several months of reclamation, the surrounding trees have been cut down and burned, leaving open spaces.
After seeing clearly the opponent's movements at this time, the military zone immediately threw incendiary bombs.
Incendiary bombs are very effective on this planet.
Because the oxygen content here is high, if it were not for the very high air humidity, thunder would have an explosive effect.
Since heavy weapons cannot pass through the Star Gate, in order to deal with the large-scale "Abyss crowd", the military zone has already made arrangements in advance.
A lot of fuel was spread on the surrounding open space. When the Yuan people rushed over, ignited by incendiary bombs in the air, the entire area around Forest Town suddenly became a sea of fire.
The incendiary bombs, combined with ground fuel and the explosive effect of increasing the oxygen content, instantly lit up the entire area, turning the entire open space and even the distant forest into a sea of fire.
Compared to the few people killed by rockets.
A lot of Yuan people died this time.
The rockets fired just now took away hundreds of people in one salvo.
But in this fire, the Yuan people's losses were calculated by tens of thousands of people.
The smell of barbecue mixed with chemical fuel came from the venue, and the pained howls of Yuan Ren were also heard together.
"They ran away, Mr. Zheng, are they afraid?" Standing on the city wall, Han Dong looked at the thick smoke and jungle in the distance. Others could not see the situation in the black smoke, but he could, "The large troops at the rear It seems to have retreated further into the jungle.”
"The Yuan people will not flinch, nor will they be afraid. If humans are burned to death on a large scale, they will have a group fear, but the Yuan people will not."
"What's the meaning?"
"I have studied the brain structure of the Yuan people. They do not have an amygdala-like area, that is, they do not have a fear reflex area. Physiologically, they are not afraid of death. I speculate that this kind of brain structure has a certain relationship with fertility rate..."
There are still too many mysteries about the Yuan people.
Zheng Senlin never understood how the Yuan people survived on their native planet.
With such a high fertility rate, the native planet would have theoretically exploded in population and exhausted its resources.
Is it possible that the brain structure that is "unafraid of death" evolved just because of the need to control the population?
It seems a little unreasonable.
Although the logic is flawed, science does not lie, and Yuanren, who is not afraid of death, will not back down easily.
"If they weren't afraid of death, why did they run so far?"
"They were probably putting out the fire."
Sure enough, as Zheng Senlin said, the retreating Yuan army did not choose to attack from other directions.
After all, their intelligence is no weaker than that of humans. They can also guess that there should be unlit fuel in the open space in other directions.
After they retreated far away, they first started digging in the rear area. After digging out the isolation zone, they set fire to the jungle in front of the isolation zone.
This method is commonly used by fire brigade to extinguish fires, and Yuan people can do it too.
But is the forest fire easy to put out?
Good and bad.
Mainly depends on the weather.
Forest fires that cannot be extinguished on Earth are usually caused by dry weather, wind direction and tree species.
Although the oxygen content here is high, air explosions are prone to occur.
However, due to the extremely high air humidity and the surrounding "rainforest belt", it is not easy to catch fire in a rainforest that is too humid.
In other words, the fire here is easy to burn and easy to put out.
So the fire only lasted from dusk until late at night, and then it was completely stopped.
In the densely smokey jungle, although the high temperature still hasn't subsided, the Yuan people can't wait.
"We're about to fight hand to hand." Han Dong looked at the scene in the distance, his palms sweating unconsciously, partly nervous and partly excited.
In peaceful times, there has never been a war of this level.
In the fire just now, Yuanren visually estimated that at least hundreds of thousands of people died.
But there are still millions of troops, ready to go.
Woo woo woo...
When everyone in the base was extremely nervous, the Yuan people blew a strange horn.
The horn sound is extremely penetrating and can be clearly heard by humans. As the Yuan people with extremely keen hearing, all members of the Yuan clan naturally received the signal.
At this moment, the tide surged at an even crazier speed than the first time.
swish swish...
Swish, swish, swish...
An army of one million people marched, making strange noises.
The spider legs with mute function scratched across the ground, and the sound of the whole city was like the symphony of death.
Over in the military zone, all kinds of artillery fire poured down in conjunction with the symphony, and connected with the sound of the charge, bringing the symphony to a climax.
Boom boom!
Artillery fire exploded in the forest and open space. Some Yuan people continued to charge, but others set up their equipment on the spot and started bombarding the forest.
These equipments are all human equipment they captured. Although they are not skilled in using them now, they can still complete basic operations.
"It's your turn to leave. A small team will stay and the others will guard the gap."
Although the humans used fire coverage, many Yuan people still rushed over. With their speed, they quickly reached the edge of the city wall. Let them climb up and enter the melee state. The human artillery defense line would soon collapse.
After all, hot weapons are useless in close combat.
Time is running out.
Immediately, the "giant knights" on the city wall took orders and jumped off the city wall. After spreading out, they rushed back toward the Yuan people.
The running speed of the "giant knights" was no slower than that of the Yuan people. After charging past, the two sides immediately fought together.
"Roar!" A green giant roared angrily, and slashed down with his saber. At that moment, two Abyssians who broke through the bombing zone were cut into two pieces.
"It feels so good!" After one round, the giants let go of their last fear.
Yes, giants are afraid too.
After all, they are just experimenters of alchemical potions. Before becoming volunteers, they were all modern soldiers and or civilian adventurers.
Before a close fight with Yuan people, even if they knew they were strong, they would still be afraid.
After all, looking at the "video data", the close combat between ordinary earthlings and Yuan people is like a child fighting Tyson, and they will be torn apart in one encounter.
The sense of fear brought about by this video was now shattered by the sight before me.
A green giant jumped up and grabbed the Yuanren who had climbed up the city wall, and then crushed its head with force.
The feeling of fear was shattered along with the brain.
Being powerful makes even timid people fearless.
