Darkness is Coming

It is not only the soldiers who are fighting on the front line who pay attention to the battle situation. The staff and correspondents of the Joint Reference also keep an eye on the changes of the battlefield in their own way. On the battlefield where each crack is located, a team of members of the Joint Reference is in the rear to guard the front-line soldiers and work together. Form a complex communication command network.

The moment the machine gunner was attacked, a warning from the rear joint staff team came from his earphones, Cheng Xu scolded angrily: "Don't go out, that kind of invisible monsters are released, let the regular army clear the invisible monsters first, we will do our best. Share the pressure on firepower.”

The equipment of the Rising Sun Squad is not complete, but the combat squad of the 163th Division in front is a regular army and must be fully equipped. This operation is to fight extraterrestrial creatures. The regular army is well prepared and equipped with infrared thermal imagers, laser detectors, sound waves detectors and other observation instruments.

  After the machine gunner was attacked, the sub-machine gunner next to him immediately pulled out his gun and aimed at the monster. The blood of the machine gunner flowed along the knife arm, enabling the sub-machine gunner to roughly determine the location of the monster based on the blood flow.

The first two shots obviously missed the point. The monster screamed twice, revealing its figure, and slammed its four legs back desperately, trying to withdraw its arms to hide and escape, but the machine gunner tightly clamped the knife that had pierced his abdomen with both hands. arm so that the monster cannot escape.

After the machine gun is fired, the barrel will generate high temperature. To replace the barrel, you must wear gloves. Although the machine gun theoretically needs to replace the barrel after firing several rounds of bullets, in practice, there are often cases of jamming and the barrel needs to be replaced, so Qualified machine gunners will wear gloves when shooting. Even if the gloves are sweaty in the summer, it is extremely uncomfortable to stick to the palm, and they will not take off the gloves easily.

   At this time, the gloves in his hands have done a great job. Without these gloves, the monster can easily cut the palm of the machine gunner with its sharp knife arm and withdraw. But now, no matter how the monster's four short legs kicked, it still couldn't pull out its arms. It bounced a few times in the last two seconds of its life, and then was shot in the head by a sniper and a shot in the chest.

  The machine gunner sighed in relief, and then fell softly. The deputy machine gunner shouted and rushed up to help inject morphine.

   "When a bullet penetrates into the chest, the wound should be covered with an airtight material like plastic sheeting, and then bandaged. The abdomen is pierced by a blade, and the blade cannot be removed. Apply, apply..."

  After injecting a dose of morphine, the gunner's face was much rosier. The body that had just exhausted all his strength was able to move again. He reached out and patted the back of the sub-machine gunner's hand, and pouted towards the position of the machine gun.

   was speechless, but the meaning was clearly expressed: Leave me alone, it's your turn.

   The deputy machine gunner had tears in his eyes. He took over the post without saying a word. After a few seconds of silence, the chamber of the heavy machine gun exploded again.

The monster air cavalry riding a flying beast was shot in the head by a sniper, and the strange flying beast was also beaten into a sieve in the process of pulling up at a low altitude. Two corpses here fell to the ground, and a modified one over there The field ambulance rushed over with red and blue flashing lights. A beautiful drifter parked beside the injured machine gunner. As soon as the rear door opened, the military doctor and hygienist in white coats stumbled and pulled the stretcher and equipment to the machine gunner. , At this time, the gunner leaned back and pressed on the monster, his eyes erratic.

  The military doctor didn't care about the 3, 7, 21, he first took a burst of cardiotonic, then measured the heartbeat, turned his head and shouted: "The abdomen is penetrating, the organs are not broken, it's okay, the bleeding is forced to stop, and the stretcher will go immediately!"

   The sub-machine gunner who was replacing the barrel was relieved, since it was okay, his life was definitely saved.

  The ambulance pulled the seriously wounded machine gunner lying on the stretcher sideways toward the temporary field hospitals built in the center of the battlefield. At the same time, the assault teams on standby at the rear of the position all wore head-mounted infrared thermal imagers, preparing to attack and destroy the stealth monsters running out of the minefield.

   But soon, the commandos returned bad news after killing two invisible monsters.

   "Report! Monsters are cold-blooded creatures!"

   As long as a creature with body temperature will emit heat, even a cold-blooded creature's body temperature is not zero. Therefore, a thermal imager that uses infrared rays to thermally sense the target can detect stealth monsters, but the difficulty of distinguishing is undoubtedly much higher.

"Get on the radio telescope! No, get the water gun, get the water gun!" After receiving the staff opinion sent by the Science and Technology Staff Group through the joint finger, the commander of the 163rd Division's combat team temporarily changed his mind. The gate valve starts to shoot at the front, and the water column is sprayed from the water gun to the front of the position at a high speed. Whenever an invisible object is encountered, the sniper and the commando will use the muzzle to call it, regardless of whether the large-caliber bullet is fired or not. At the key point, it can tear this kind of monster with low protection and short stature into two pieces.

   Originally, fire trucks were used to put out fires and stop losses in time, but I didn’t expect them to be so useful.

"Is this okay?" Xiao Liu's eyes widened. Originally, he was disdainful of the real-time and uninterrupted command method of the scientific staff team and the joint index, but he did not expect this strange command method to be used on the battlefield. So miraculous.

   "It turns out that there is such an operation."

   "I'm convinced, I thought that the so-called scientific research team was a group of bricklayers who cheated money, but I didn't expect to be so capable!"

  The team members complained one after another. These hob meats have long since ground a strong heart that is dying to the point of death. Just after the thrilling crisis, they began to talk and complain.

"Of course it's fine." Cheng Xu breathed a sigh of relief, "Have you not seen those acting in the movies of the secret agents? Behind every agent on a mission, there is a 24/7 online logistics communicator who is specially responsible for helping the agent make plans and provide Information. The idea of ​​water pistols is actually not difficult to think of. It’s just that we are on the battlefield, and the authorities are obsessed. Sometimes we can have a quick brainstorm, and sometimes we are too nervous. The brain crashes. It takes action, just pull the trigger. This mode of combat seems to be good and fresh.”

   The Rising Sun Squad is also the first time to participate in such a form of combat, and everyone including Cheng Xu feels fresh.

   "If only I had this condition in Yuanjiang last year, I wouldn't have to worry about going out hunting every time." Cheng Xu said with emotion, "Technology and imagination determine combat effectiveness."

Cheng Xu and others were so relaxed because the gray crack outside the Zhejiang Mall was gradually shrinking. Taking the phenomenon before the crack on the campus of Nandu University as a reference, and then holding on to the impact of a wave of monsters, the crack in front of the Zhejiang Mall was closed. will disappear completely.

   A few minutes later, the crack that had been brewing for a long time made a sound again.

   "Shuh ssh--"

  The monsters riding flying beasts rushed out of the cracks like migrating birds, densely packed and covering the sky.

"ended."

   Cheng Xu spread out his hands and lit a cigarette for himself.
