Darkness is Coming - Chapter 707
All the irrational details are usable clues that, when strung together, lead to answers.
Why does this capture mission send out Awakeners instead of using machines? Why let Super Squad take part in the action? Why parachute into the combat zone from an altitude of 6,000 meters? Why not just use the transporter?
Because the target of the capture mission is a giant spider with a biological EMP weapon.
Yang Dong has seen the power of biological EMP at the Olympic Sports Center. Once EMP is released, all electronic devices in a radius of several kilometers are damaged! Later, Yang Dong also found out that even some of the electronic equipment that was turned off at the time was damaged.
Such monsters with unknown working principles and powerful destructive capabilities naturally have to capture living organisms for research. If they can understand the working principle of this biological EMP and make new EMP weapons, then armored forces around the world will be useless in the face of new EMP weapons. The decoration is not insignificant in terms of strategic significance.
However, it is extremely difficult to capture such a monster alive. In the face of undefended EMP weapons, aircraft, tanks and even infantry fighting vehicles cannot be used. Only old-fashioned equipment that does not rely on electronic equipment can be used. Several monster corpses were collected by the troops in the battle area during the magic tide, and it was difficult to judge how to stop the giant spider from releasing EMP again. In other words, in order to capture a giant spider with a biological EMP weapon and bring it back to the base, it is likely to use manpower throughout the process, but there are not only a few giant spiders in the war zone, but also a variety of countless Qing monsters, which are dangerous, can be imagined.
It is precisely because the difficulty is so great, and the risk is so high, that President Yu and President Yang, who are decisive, choose to kill them all without leaving any survivors. When Yang Dong wants to come, the main government and the military region will definitely order the troops to capture the giant spiders at all costs. , but Speaker Yu and Chairman Yang would definitely not risk their own lives, so the only person who killed the giant spider was Speaker Yu, who went to the scene in person, and killed them on the spot without hesitation. Of course, this is all Yang Dong’s guess. He doesn’t know what the specific situation is, and he can’t find out.
It is actually very easy for the robot troops to destroy the giant spiders. Let the artillery team carry out a BVR attack or instant, but it is different. If the omnic army is sent to capture the giant spiders, it is really a meat bun and a dog. And without the weapons of war, such as aircraft and tanks, it is difficult for those elite combat experts to exert their expertise. In front of ferocious alien monsters, the muscled international mercenaries are like ordinary people with slack fat, and they have no ability to fight back.
That’s why the command center sent two ace squads and a hunting team. The reason why the Chaosheng team participated in the operation was not because President Yang wanted to give the Chaosheng team a chance to be trained, but because the awakened people who participated in the battle Can use the ability of the super team.
If the EMP destroys all the communication equipment carried by the fighters, after the giant spider is successfully captured, the fighters will be in a predicament of not being able to receive instructions. No matter how sophisticated the action plan is, it is not a movie script. At that time, you can’t stay in place and wait for the base to send a plane over to drop the communication equipment, right? It is also impossible to send a few Jingwei to land on the position of the combat team, right? This is a war zone full of monsters!
Furthermore, what if the air-dropped communication equipment or the dispatched plane is also damaged by the EMP released by the giant spider? Losing the real-time intelligence of the headquarters, the fighters may be in danger at any time. At this time, Yang Dong’s ability can come in handy. As for the others, Yang Dong guessed that most of them were “involved” by themselves. The Chaosheng Squad as a whole, Naturally, it is a common advance and retreat. Since it is a team, the command center will not only mobilize Yang Dong when issuing orders.
Also, because EMP weapons are capable of destroying electronic equipment, the super-squad and other combatants must parachute into the combat area, because a helicopter landing too close is likely to be scrapped, landing too far is better than driving – driving a vehicle is also not feasible , the noise is too large, and the target is too large, it is easy to attract the attention of the surrounding monsters. After all, dynamic objects are always easier to attract attention than static street scenes. At that time, thousands of monsters will surround the vehicles driven by combat personnel. The spider releases EMP again, and the only thing waiting for the combat team is the ending of the annihilation.
As for why the Jingwei was used instead of a transport plane, Yang Dong speculated that perhaps after the fighters landed in the designated area, the Jingwei would stay over the combat area to provide fire support for the fighters, and landed directly after the operation was completed. So that the combat team can return home safely as soon as possible.
But no one can say what unexpected situations will occur. In case of unexpected situations, the evacuation plan must be adjusted and the command center cannot contact the combat team, then Yang Dong’s ability is very important.
“Listen!” Yang Dong put the mini Faraday electric cage with the radio in his hand into the inner pocket of the tactical suit, zipped up the zipper, and shouted to a few teammates: “The goal of this capture mission should be to be able to release the EMP. The giant spider of the weapon is the monster that damaged all the electronic equipment in the Olympic Sports Center and the surrounding streets last time, so everyone must concentrate and be extremely vigilant! Don’t take it lightly, this task is definitely not easy! Huo Lu picked it up, then Shan Yun and Doudou jumped, then I jumped, and when we got down, we got closer to each other, held hands in the ring, and then opened the umbrella bag and then opened up the distance. Do you understand?”
Sitting in the cabin, everyone was wearing noise-cancelling communication headsets, so they could hear it clearly and made gestures to show their understanding.
Chandler looked at Yang Dong in surprise, this kid really has the demeanor of a captain, and the general revolver was really not wrong. Satisfied with Yang Dong’s performance, Chandler did not blame Yang Dong for ordering without authorization, but praised: “Son, you are indeed smart, you can guess the target of the arrest mission so quickly.”
“Thank you.” Yang Dong accepted Chandler’s compliment generously, and looked at Chandler and said sincerely, “Instructor Qian, your last jump, if we make a circle, no one will jump off, but I Afraid of attracting the attention of monsters, I would like to ask you to provide cover for us in the air, okay?”
“No problem.” Chandler nodded reservedly, a hint of pride in the implicit smile at the corner of his mouth. No matter how powerful a sniper is, he can’t raise his gun during the airborne process, but Chandler is an awakener, and his superpower can always make the impossible possible.
After a while, the indicator light came on, and the rear hatch also opened, and it was clear that the Jingwei had reached the sky above the area.
“Jump!” Chandler ordered.
Zhou Tianhong, who had already unbuckled his seatbelt, rushed to the rear hatch with a hula, jumped down first, and disappeared in the blink of an eye, leaving only a cry echoing in the cabin.
“Super Squad, attack!”
followed by another shout that was so excited that it changed its tone.
“Fuck, Gou Ri’s umbrella bag is still on the seat!”
Ai Yingying screamed, put on his umbrella bag and rushed out.
