Chapter 840: Zhao Gang threatened and forced?

Following the movement of the TV camera of the Falcon 7 military reconnaissance drone, the picture quickly swept across the 12-square-kilometer gold-eating ant nest and arrived in the urban area of ​​Changshou District.

The Changshou city area in the picture no longer has the prosperous appearance of high-rise buildings before the end of the world. Instead, there are lead-gray bald spots like vitiligo!

When the camera zoomed in again, you can see that tens of millions of gold-eating ants are spreading endlessly like flowing asphalt. Even through the screen, you can hear the roar of the scene, like a grinder grinding or millions of steel files scraping against iron sheets!

On the road, five-centimeter-long worker ants poured out from the cracks in the guardrails, their obsidian shells glowing with nitric acid.

Everything he saw along the way, his claws opening and closing, the galvanized steel plate of the tanker truck suddenly let out a dying groan, the iconic eagle emblem on the front of the car disappeared first, followed by the door hinges, and finally even the bulletproof glass was melted into turbid colloid under the licking of acid.

In less than three minutes, in full view of dozens of war zone leaders in the No. 1 Operations Conference Room, the entire large tanker truck was collapsed into a honeycomb-like pile of debris by the gold-eating ants!

The ants are still advancing, greedily and quickly devouring everything they encounter, including various metal products, glass products, plastic products, plants, and even steel bars cast in concrete...

It was visible to the naked eye that as the gold-eating ants advanced, the entire Changshou District was filled with flying dust, and tall buildings would tilt and collapse from time to time.

When a huge layer of concrete falls on the ink-like gold-eating ants, a yellow-green acid mist will immediately rise up. That is the acid that splashes out of the bodies of the gold-eating ants after they are smashed, corroding the earth!

"The above is the activity video of the gold-eating ant colony. According to estimates, the colony of gold-eating ants active in the longevity zone has a population of about 10 billion and is in a period of rapid growth."

"As the size of the colony continues to grow, the growth rate of the gold-eating ant colony is also accelerating. Similarly, its aggressiveness is also increasing visibly!"

"So far, about one twentieth of the entire Changshou District has been completely devoured by it. Without external intervention, within half a year at the latest, all traces of the existence of the entire Changshou District will be completely wiped out."

...

"What's the difference between this and the Zerg in the old StarCraft?" After Lu Chong finished speaking, Gu Chengyuan couldn't help but complain in his heart.

"It's just that the soldiers are not so abnormal, but their destructiveness to the environment and their characteristics of eating everything are almost exactly the same."

Especially the corrosiveness of the acid, which can even break or collapse buildings. Let alone ordinary soldiers, even if armored units are caught in close range, they are estimated to be no better off than the tanker truck in the video.

However, judging from the video footage, the individual combat power of the Gold-Eating Ant should not be very strong. As long as you are careful with the acid, an ordinary survivor can easily kill it alone.

After all, the size of the gold-eating ants is there. The longest one is only seven or eight centimeters, which is not even as big as the size of an ordinary person's shoes.

But the key point is that this thing doesn't involve one-on-one combat. Sometimes they fight side by side, involving hundreds of millions or even hundreds of millions!

With this size and ability, let alone the entire apocalypse, it is estimated that there will be few natural enemies in the longevity zone, otherwise it would not be possible to develop so comfortably.

However, this time they were photographed by a military unmanned reconnaissance aircraft. It can only be said that they were unlucky!

"I admit that you have the potential to cause a natural disaster, but what I like most is to strangle the natural disaster in the cradle, hehehe~"

Thinking of this, Gu Chengyuan opened his mouth and said to the whole audience:

“After the meeting, Lu Chong will compile all the information about the newly discovered evolved zombies and mutant creatures in Yucheng into a book (including pictures, basic information, activity range, etc.), and report it to the theater joint staff!”

"After the theater joint staff obtains it, it will be incorporated into the theater's official "Apocalypse Atlas" and a targeted destructive strike will be formulated and launched before the battle to recapture Yucheng!"

"Now that we know this, let's test the abilities of these troublemakers before we start the full-scale battle to retake Yucheng!"

"Anyway, no matter what, we will never allow such a monster to exist within the radiation range of our Zhongzhou war zone!"

"Yes!" X2

As Gu Chengyuan finished speaking, Chief of Staff Wu Bin and Lu Chong in the video also responded quickly.

"The army is making intensive preparations for the war. In order not to disrupt the deployment of the recovery operation, the air force will be the main force for this operation!"

"Are there any problems with the Air Force?" When mentioning the Air Force, Gu Chengyuan immediately looked at Zhou Tianyi, the commander of the theater's Air Force, who was sitting in the middle of the first row.

Hearing this, the theater air force commander Zhou Tianyi could not hold back his excitement and immediately stood up and assured:

"Report to the commander, the Air Force is committed to completing the mission!"

Seeing this scene, the Navy Commander Chen Haitao, Rocket Force Commander Zhao Changfeng and other military commanders sitting next to Zhou Tianyi couldn't help but feel a little sour...

"it is good!"

"Then let's end today's meeting here. After the meeting, all departments must strengthen communication and cooperation. We have talked enough about combat. Lu Chong, please pay attention. Finally, I will emphasize logistics!"

"As the saying goes, food and grass must be prepared before troops move. Logistics is of utmost importance and the key to success or failure. In this regard, our theater logistics must fulfill their responsibilities and establish a strong logistics support system that can support the entire Yucheng recovery battle!"

"Yes, I promise to complete the mission!"

"Please rest assured, chief!"

"Please rest assured, chief!"

..

As Gu Chengyuan finished his words, the whole audience immediately heard assurances in various accents.

Seeing this scene, Gu Chengyuan nodded with satisfaction, and then shouted in a capable tone:

"The meeting is dismissed!"

"Yes!"

"stand up!"

As the command was given, dozens of war zone leaders in the audience stood up and watched Gu Chengyuan leave.

Only after Gu Chengyuan left did people in the conference room gradually leave in the order of lieutenant generals, major generals, and colonels.

...

dong dong dong~

"Commander, the 77th Legion reports in!"

After the meeting, not long after Gu Chengyuan returned to the office and sat down, Zhou Guihong's knocking sound began to be heard outside the door.

77th Legion?

Hearing this, Gu Chengyuan showed a thoughtful look on his face. He thought to himself that his transfer order had not been issued yet. At this point in time, could something have happened to the 77th Corps?

"Enter!"

"Report to the commander, the leadership committee of the 77th Corps has jointly applied to request the theater headquarters to appoint Zhao Gang as the deputy commander of the 77th Corps!"

The 77th Corps requested that Zhao Gang be appointed as the deputy commander of the 77th Corps? ?

Zhao Gang?

After hearing the news, Gu Chengyuan's brain reacted a little and he remembered who Zhao Gang was.

Isn't Zhao Gang Li Kun's partner? I saw his name in a report about the 77th Legion not long ago.

If I remember correctly, he was responsible for leading the three infantry brigades that supported the 77th Corps in the theater!

After sorting out the relationships between the characters, Gu Chengyuan couldn't help but become even more confused. Why would the 77th Legion collectively recommend him for no reason?

It can be said that the two have nothing in common at all!

You have to know that the 77th Army Corps had just been assigned to the Zhongzhou War Zone. Before that, Zhao Gang had no contact with the 77th Army Corps.

Could it be that Zhao Gang threatened his troops and forced the leadership committee of the 77th Army to elect him?
