Doomsday Catastrophe

Guo Pinming, Yang Chang, and many commanding staff did not sleep. Ordinary soldiers need to sleep to maintain their physical strength, but as decision makers, they must consider all aspects of the battle. The time to sleep is not as good as that of ordinary soldiers. soldiers.

Seeing the dusk gradually approaching, both Guo Pinming and Yang Chang began to discuss that the Daba Mountain is really too big, don't look at the number of almost 20,000 people on my side, which seems boundless, but after entering the Daba Mountain But it's nothing, if you want to cause the greatest damage effect, you must not act according to the previous method.

"Exterminating mutant birds is different from exterminating mutant beasts. Mutant birds can fly away. We surrounded them at night, and they flew away during the day. If we go all the way, the efficiency is too low." Guo Pinming Shen Said loudly.

"Then what do you mean? Let's divide up our troops? We will fight each other?" Yang Chang then asked.

Guo Pinming nodded seriously, and replied: "That's right, this is the only way right now. Divide the troops into action. More than a hundred people will walk along the way, carrying portable communication tools. We will sit at the command post and command at any time. After we disperse, we will act like a carpet." Entering Daba Mountain, one mountain after another catches mutant birds."

Yang Chang hesitated, and said: "The method is good, but I'm afraid of danger. Once there is a mutant bird king in the mountain, just like the blue peacock that the city lord met before, it will be dangerous. More than a hundred people are not enough for the King of Birds to kill."

This is the result of dispersing the enemy. A small team is easy to be eaten. Once someone is unlucky and encounters the bird king, casualties will inevitably occur.

However, if it is not dispersed, nearly 20,000 people clean up the mutant birds in the mountains every night, and the efficiency is really poor.

Thinking of this, Guo Pinming could only shake his head helplessly, and said: "It's a pity that Lu Xian can't go out, otherwise, Lu Xian is here, as long as he uses his supernatural powers, he can detect the movements of birds, and all problems will be solved. It's a pity , he can't come."

Lu Xian himself didn't do anything to be sorry for Yuzhou, but he married a wife named Hong Yehui, who even colluded with the Tianlong Bureau. This matter was told by Zhang Xiaoqiang, and Lu Xian had to accept the censorship. As for his wife, she also entered the prison and was locked up. It's a pity that a person with supernatural powers has lost all her powers now.

Having said that, facing a large number of flocks of birds, even if everyone can fight at night, they still feel that they have more energy than their strength. The Daba Mountain is really too big, and the terrain inside is still very complicated. This place is also a proper poverty-stricken area, not to mention the inconvenient transportation, and there are no resources. It is really not an easy task to solve the mutated birds that have taken root here.

At this time, the vanguard had returned, bringing first-hand news from the forest, and evidence captured by the camera as proof, and everyone hurriedly asked the vanguard to come over to ask for clarification.

"Minister, there are too many mutated birds in the forest. It's autumn now, but these birds are still laying eggs and hatching, as if they don't know the seasons. We all crawled out slowly. Fortunately Wear an auspicious suit on your body, otherwise you will be discovered." The captain of the vanguard said quickly.

Guo Pinming and others quickly observed the photos. In the photos, the shadows of the trees in the forest were mottled, and almost nothing could be seen clearly, but there were bird nests on the branches of the trees. It can be said that as long as the branches are larger, they can The nesting places have been turned into bird nests, and the leaves on the ground are directly covered by a lot of bird droppings.

Seeing these photos, Lu Kaiyang couldn't help but said immediately: "The ability of these birds to forage after mutation should be enhanced, so the extra energy can be used to reproduce offspring. If there is no food, then these mutants Even if the birds lay eggs, they won’t be able to survive.”

The reason is very simple. Most animal reproduction is done under suitable environmental conditions, even human beings are no exception. The simplest example is that many people choose not to marry or have children if they have no money. Lighten your own life.

However, after birds have mutated, their ability to forage for food has greatly increased. In nature, body size represents almost everything. Generally speaking, large animals are very powerful in fighting, such as lions and elephants. The birds have grown in size, find food more easily, and are more fertile, so that in the fall, the birds are still laying eggs.

Under normal circumstances, birds lay eggs and hatch in spring and summer, because there are more bugs in spring and summer, and in autumn, the temperature has dropped, and the birds have learned to take off and can survive the winter , but now, the birds in Daba Mountain lay eggs in autumn, which is particularly abnormal.

"I understand. These birds, when there is nothing to eat in autumn and winter, will leave the forest and go down the mountain to find food to fill their stomachs. In this way, humans become the targets of birds!" Guo Pinming Shen Sheng said.

When everyone heard this analysis, they also felt that it made sense, and nodded one after another.

There are many animals that can store food in nature, ranging from lions and tigers to insects such as ants, but compared to the level of food storage, human beings must be the best in the world in terms of their ability to store food, and the means by which humans store food It is also incomparable to animals in nature.

When there is no food in the forest, these birds will go down the mountain. When winter comes, the earth is covered with snow, and the only place where food can be found becomes the granary of human beings, and even human beings themselves. Therefore, future mutations Birds will definitely attack humans.

"It's not too late. I'll notify you right away. A group of ten teams will disperse into the mountains. During meal times, flashlights will be distributed. Batteries are not allowed to be thrown around. They need to be reused to eliminate the mutated birds!" Guo Pinming realized the matter. The urgency of the mutated birds has now exceeded the level that the forest can support. If this continues, the mutated birds will inevitably come down the mountain to invade the human territory, and this kind of thing must be avoided.

When dusk came, everyone ate a full meal and replenished their energy. Afterwards, they were about to receive flashlights and prepare to go into the mountains. For this operation, Shen Feng had worked hard. The flashlights and other things were all ready. Several hydroelectric power plants are dedicated to supplying power to the headquarters, ensuring the ability to fight at night.

Shen Feng wanted to shoot thousands of flares in the sky at one time, so as to illuminate the ground, but Yuzhou really didn't have this ability, so he could save as much as he could, and just use a flashlight to make do with whatever flares he could.

In the end, 18,000 people marched into Daba Mountain. At this time, the sky was getting dark and the birds had already returned to the forest. Their eyesight could not support taking off at night.

"Look, there are birds in the trees here, shoot them down!"

"boom."

"There are also here, keep shooting."

"Boom."

When regular soldiers and amateur mercenaries went into the mountains to perform missions together, the difference immediately became apparent. Regular soldiers were responsible for illuminating and looking for mutated birds, and then someone was responsible for shooting. As for amateur mercenaries, that Just do it casually, whoever hits it will be his, and the mercenary guild also explained that the prey can be disposed of by itself, which means that in addition to wages, there can be extra income.

When the crowd rushed into the forest, they immediately alarmed many birds in the forest. The sky was dark, although it was autumn, but the leaves had not completely fallen, so the light in the forest was not good, the light of the flashlight was like a beam of light, the birds were caught This kind of movement disturbed, many birds stood on the branches in a daze, and more birds took off indiscriminately.

Birds that take off can't see the surrounding situation clearly, and it's impossible to avoid them. If they are lucky, they can fly to the sky, and more often they hit the branches of the tree, and then fall down after fainting.

The mercenaries were almost laughing when they saw the birds falling from the trees, because they really didn't expect to have such a harvest, and they didn't need to shoot to catch the birds.

"First come, first served. Whoever finds it belongs to him. Don't fight for it." Someone rushed forward with a loud shout, and the rest of the mercenaries rushed forward one after another. The rooster is so big, but its fighting power is not as good as the rooster. Everyone rushed up and started to pick up the birds that fell from the tree.

Originally, the mutated birds rely on numbers to win, and the birds in the mountains are not as good as the migratory birds. Migratory birds like the white cranes and swans that appeared in the south of Yanjing at the beginning are very powerful. It is not as good as a large migratory bird, and can only rely on its quantitative advantage to become the overlord in the forest.

Now that the bird landed on the ground, everyone rushed up, grabbed the neck of the mutated sparrow or thrush, twisted it, and it could be broken instantly.

The caught birds are hung on the belt and become trophies. A person can hang more than a dozen birds on his waist. In addition to being a trophy, it can also be used to show off.

However, there are not only ordinary mutated birds in the mountains, but also the king of birds. When the crowd poured into the forest, the king of birds was startled. A huge turtledove flew into the sky in an instant, making continuous calls After receiving the order, the surrounding birds flew to the sky one after another. For a moment, a dark shadow appeared in the sky, which looked terrifying. These birds numbered at least 100,000.

"Report to the headquarters. This is the twelfth team. They found the king of birds. It is a turtledove with a wingspan of about five meters. It has already brought many birds to the sky, but they have not landed." Reported the sight of the bird king to the command.

The turtledove is called a stupid turtledove because of its low intelligence and easy capture. It is often used in the south to scold children for being incompetent. For example: You are a stupid turtledove.

However, when the turtledove flew into the sky with hundreds of thousands of birds, it immediately put pressure on the soldiers.

When Guo Pinming heard the report from his subordinates, he couldn't help feeling a little helpless, and said in his heart: "I'm afraid of something, I was worried that there would be a bird king in the forest, but now it really appeared."

The bird king and the ordinary mutant bird are two different concepts. No matter how big the mutant bird is, it is as big as a golden eagle, and its wingspan will not exceed two meters. Once the king appears, it is very difficult to destroy it without air power.

Fortunately, at this time, someone fell from the sky. Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be Chang Haojie. His arm hadn't fully recovered, and he was hanging in front of his body with a bandage. After walking into the headquarters, he said to Guo Pinming: "Guo Pinming Brother, my brother-in-law asked me to help, he said that with me and Lu Kaiyang, we can deal with Bird King."

Seeing Chang Haojie appearing here, Guo Pinming immediately felt that a savior was coming. Now that he had air power, Chang Haojie could fly to an altitude of 200 meters. Wouldn't it be easier to cooperate with Lu Kaiyang, a sharpshooter?

Lu Kaiyang also stood up when he heard that, and said, "No problem, as long as I can fly higher than the bird king, I can kill it with one shot."

"Then I'll leave it to you, we must kill the Bird King." Guo Pinming said hastily.

Chang Haojie suddenly asked: "Then after I complete this mission, can I get my own title?"

"Sure. If you want any title, then get ready. I will report to the city lord and let him announce it." Guo Pinming shook his head. He didn't expect the eldest son to care about this matter.
