Bai Lingyu shuttled back and forth to the headquarters where the detectors were beeping and ordering intelligence to be delivered centrally, followed by the captains of each team behind him.
Adjutant Xu came forward and handed over the encrypted terminal.
"Report the situation." Bai Lingyu took it without stopping.
"yes."
Adjutant Xu sent the summary of the test reports from the survey platform and the pollution prevention and control institute to the military terminal in Bai Lingyu's hand. He kept moving, speeding up his pace, and speaking faster:
“The survey station and the pollution institute called this snow [Spring Cold], which also happened in the first year of the Red Moon, but there are no detailed records, but it is extremely polluting and highly corrosive to flesh and blood.
"Level 1 alert and warning of [spring cold] have been notified to all parts of the city, but there was no warning for this snow. The survey station reported that it was generated out of thin air. It only took a dozen seconds to change from clear sky to snow clouds. We There was no time to prevent it.”
"Open all shelters and guide residents to take shelter nearby."
Bai Lingyu quickly browsed all action applications to approve or reject them without slowing down:
"Which team is responsible for today's city defense inspection?"
Adjutant Xu: "It's Major Su's second detachment."
"What about the casualties? How about the casualties at the forward outpost?"
"Twelve people died and thirty people were seriously injured." Adjutant Xu summarized various reports. "One person at the forward sentry was injured and killed, and the rest took shelter in time under the protection of the protective shield."
Bai Lingyu nodded and ordered:
"The third detachment put on protective clothing to take over the inspection of the second team, strengthened the city defense, notified the inspection team, and asked them to evacuate the crowd, and distributed protective clothing to the people to minimize the casualty rate."
"Yes." The leader of the third detachment who was following Bai Lingyu took the order and left.
"The medical team is divided into three teams, one team to support the city defense, one team to deal with casualties in the base, and one team to cooperate with the rescue in the city.
"Notify the prevention and control office and ask them to fully cooperate to deal with all contaminated crystals within 12 hours after the snow stops to control the pollution.
"The Logistics Department transports serum supplies to various city defenses and outposts to prepare for battle.
"The information station fully activates radar detection and releases front-line unmanned detection aircraft. Once a group of aliens is detected, it will be reported immediately. The turret does not need to report, and it will immediately cooperate with the interception."
"Yes." The leaders of each team took the order and left.
Bai Lingyu arrived at the podium, facial verification turned on the core equipment, and various permissions were unlocked.
The protective shield above the third base was raised to block out the [spring cold]. Pollution prevention robots in every corner quickly cleaned up the snowflakes that fell on the ground and sprayed prevention and control drugs.
An application window popped up on the deputy command console, and Adjutant Xu said: "Colonel, this is Professor Lu's encrypted call."
"catch."
A video call connects, and a middle-aged woman in research clothes stands with an elderly male.
"Professor Lu."
Bai Lingyu nodded to the female researcher, then looked at the elderly man next to him:
"Master Jin."
This is Jin Huaiyi, the chief research engineer of the Ercheng Third Base Prevention and Control Research Institute.
Lu Chengxu didn't talk nonsense and got straight to the point:
"Colonel, our serum and prevention and treatment drugs are limited, and it is unrealistic to reduce all pollution in the city.
"Once the increase in pollution breaks out, there will also be a shortage of production raw materials, and all must be used on the tip of the knife."
Jin Huaiyi knocked on the crutch in his hand, his voice was slightly hoarse, and there were scars on his throat, as if his vocal cords had been injured:
"Off the east coast, once the avian aliens launch a full-scale attack after the increase, the city's reinforcement subsidies will not be able to keep up, and it will be difficult for aircraft to take off for transportation. We have to make a choice."
Just after the military meeting, the ease with which the evacuation plan was approved was gone. The disaster came faster and more violently than they imagined, and it was almost overwhelming before it officially started.
Bai Lingyu tapped his fingers on the podium surface a few times, pondered for a moment and then spoke:
"The new serum can't keep up, so the old batch of serum that hasn't been destroyed will be used first. If one shot doesn't work, give two shots. Mild contamination is enough."
"Old serum?" Lu Chengxu frowned, "That's okay, but a batch has been shipped to the chemical plant for reassembly and processing this afternoon. The quantity accounts for a quarter of our inventory. I'm afraid..."
Bai Lingyu's expression did not change: "It's not processed, so I'll take it."
Bai Lingyu failed to apply for serum processing at noon today, so he kept the things in the cold storage of the third base.
Now it has played an emergency role, thanks to Baizhu's words at the time: "Maybe it will come in handy".
"Okay." Lu Chengxu was obviously stunned for a moment, but he was measured and didn't ask any more questions.
"But I'm afraid this is not enough. Some things still need to be planned in advance."
Jin Huaiyi did not relax, and the wrinkles on his forehead were tightly squeezed together, making him look more like a piece of moldy rotten wood, exuding the rotten smell of dying.
But his eyes were still sharp, and his droopy eyelids couldn't block the light like a vulture's eyes.
"I see, those gangsters who don't pay the poll tax don't need to distribute the serum anymore."
Jin Huaiyi looked serious and clenched his crutches in his hands:
"Since some people are destined to be abandoned, let's start with the most useless and least valuable people. This will cause a small enough loss, and we can also reserve the next part of the supplies in advance to prevent unexpected events."
Lu Chengxu frowned. She wanted to say, "This decision is too early. There may be a chance of improvement." But she opened her mouth and did not speak to dissuade her.
She is on the front line and knows best what will happen when pollution increases. The number of casualties must be appalling.
Looking at the overall situation, it is indeed necessary to select the best, and it is better to not give it from the beginning than to not give it in the later stage, which will cause greater panic.
"It's not to the point of abandoning people yet."
Bai Lingyu dismissed it coldly and tilted his head slightly to signal to Adjutant Xu:
"Notify the first team, allocate a detachment of soldiers from the base garrison, and jointly inspect the team to burn all vegetation in the city before the snow stops, remove all animals staying in the streets, and destroy the carcasses.
"If you encounter a contaminated human being, shoot and destroy the body on the spot without notifying the family."
Adjutant Xu: "If it is an animal that has been exposed to the [Spring Cold] but was carried back to the courtyard, or in the flower garden..."
"Forced destruction."
Bai Lingyu's expression was cold and hard, his tone was calm but he could not say anything, and his chill was clearly evident:
"As long as it is contaminated with [Spring Cold], as long as it is not human, all living creatures will be cleaned."
Adjutant Xu frowned: "Yes!"
When Adjutant Xu turned around and left, Jin Huaiyi and Lu Chengxu on the command screen looked at each other, and the former nodded slightly.
Lu Chengxu sighed silently and looked at Bai Lingyu with a more serious look:
"Colonel, you have a decision to make.
“Is that thing used or not?
"The council decided to experiment in the second city, but you have never allowed it, but now there may be a chance to defend the city."
