Starship Troopers: I Become Stronger When I Kill Bugs

Chapter 43 Establish A Defense Line, The First Wave Of Insects!

Half an hour later, Zarak ordered the team to retreat and defend the lakeshore defense line.

The large transport ship has landed on the island in the middle of the lake, and it will become a temporary defense base for Operation Ocean Star.

There are no water bugs yet, so the island in the middle of the lake is very safe.

As long as the nearby giant plasma worms are cleared away, even if the swarm of insects strikes, it will not be able to pose a threat to the base, and the locusts will not be able to shake the large transport ship.

But just in case, the lake shoreline must be occupied.

By the time the home team of the tough guys returned to the shore, the shore was already busy.

The Corps of Engineers is setting up the line of defense.

Starfleet has dropped a large number of module airdrops, and there are a series of defense facilities such as sentry towers, grids, and machine guns.

The task of the engineering troops is to use these defensive facilities to encircle the entire lake shoreline and establish an all-round defense line.

"Oh, no!"

"Alves, it seems we can't live in the starship."

Seeing a group of engineering troops starting to set up tents, Rex let out a strange cry, his tone full of disappointment.

"I don't live in tents."

"I'd rather sleep in the sentry tower, so I can at least avoid the big beetles digging in from the ground."

Aiwen shrugged, not surprised at all.

For this insect hunting operation, the number of mobile troops was 10,000.

With the support of the defense line, 10,000 people can probably defend this area, but it can only be defended, and it is impossible to live on the starship without the defense line.

If the bug hunting operation does not go well, and there is no new order from the top management, then they will even have to live here for a month, or even longer.

In the end either finish the mission or stay here forever.

For most of the next day, Hai Xing was completely quiet.

The mobile unit is helping the engineering unit to establish a defense line, and has no time to trouble the bugs.

The worms also seemed to have received the orders of the smart worms, and they all left the surface and returned to the underground worm nests. Even the reconnaissance plane could not see the worms.

Aiwen stood on the sentry tower for a day, but did not see ten bugs in total.

So after discussing the time of vigil with Rex, Aiwen lay down on the ground and fell asleep.

.........

"Alves!"

After an unknown amount of time, Aiwen was woken up by being pushed by Rex.

"What's wrong?"

Aiwen stood in front of the machine gun platform in an instant, but when he looked out, he didn't even see a bug.

"The situation is not good!"

With a sullen face, Rex said in a low voice: "Starfleet sent the latest information, they said that the bugs on Ocean Planet have begun to gather."

"Based on the size of the bug swarm, the Starship Fleet guesses that there are more than one million bugs on Planet Ocean!"

"Ten thousand to a million, we're in big trouble!"

"So many?" Aiwen suddenly became excited, it's another sudden rich situation!

But after seeing that Rex's face was wrong, he put on a relaxed expression again, and said with a smile:

"Rex, don't be so nervous. A million bugs just sounds like a lot. What we have to face is always the first row."

"Think about it, we have endless ammunition, ground defenses, air forces, and Starfleet support."

"Alves, you are too optimistic."

Rex shook his head and said, "Starfleet will only equip us, not bomb us."

"Because they want to catch the starship bug, and a large-scale bombing may kill the starship bug."

"But you are right. We only need to face the bugs of the assault platoon. There is no difference between one million and one hundred thousand. We have plenty of weapons."

He is a five-year veteran, and he is afraid that it will be impossible, but he just feels that this task is not easy to do.

"Attention all, the swarm of insects will attack the defense line in five minutes!"

While the two were chatting, an alarm sounded from the communicator.

The lakeshore defense line, which had fallen into silence, was completely awakened at this moment.

Numerous lighting beams were fired from the large transport ship, illuminating the attack vision of the entire lakeshore defense line, and a large number of fighter planes were dispatched at the same time.

On the ground, combat teams one after another ran out of the military tents and boarded the protective wall that took a day to build.

In less than a minute, the defensive force of the temporary base was formed.

Aiwen on the sentry tower checked the machine gun platform, then placed the spare weapon in the corner, took out the life scanner and looked into the distance.

The scale of the bug swarm is huge!

Within the observable range, the bugs have completely covered the ground.

The most numerous are soldier insects and worker bees, a small number of tank beetles and giant plasma insects are distributed in the middle, and there are locusts in the air.

"Rex, get ready!"

"If there are no big bugs, you can freely fire and fight the small bugs, and when the big bugs come, you can set fire to the big bugs!"

Seeing that the insect swarm was only one kilometer away from the defense line, Aiwen put away the binoculars and said loudly to Rex.

"Alves, I am a veteran!"

Rex spat out a word aggrieved, but stood in front of the machine gun stand very obediently.

"OK, veteran."

"Give it your all and don't hold back or I'll kick your ass!"

Aiwen nodded seriously and patted Rex on the shoulder.

"Fack!" Rex dared not speak out, complaining quietly in his heart.

He is also a sergeant, but when facing Aiwen, he always feels like a little brother.

(As soon as the flowers bloomed, I felt flustered and happy at the same time. This kind of increase could not be added at all. I could only try my best and write as much as I could.)

(Please believe that I also want to put it on the shelves earlier and make money earlier, so I won't delay the update, it's just slow.)
