"Officer, I understand that, but the current situation is that without enough Firepower support, my troops won't even survive tonight. The First Defense Line is being lost! Listen, those damned Insects are slaughtering my Soldiers!"
The Lieutenant General held the red telephone towards outside the Command Post. The clear artillery fire, machine gun spray fire, mixed with screams echoing in the Night Sky, were picked up by the telephone receiver.
"I will order the Second Defense Line to launch a batch of Jericho Missiles to provide you with firepower support!" The voice on the other end of the phone was silent for a moment before speaking.
"Send the coordinates of our lost positions to that Bastard Bart, and notify the retreating troops. As soon as the firepower support ends, immediately retake the positions!"
After Lieutenant General Haosi hung up the phone, he immediately ordered his Adjutant and the Operations Staff Officers.
"Yes! Officer!"
In the trenches of the First Battlefield Frontline, a Spider Bug was using its sharp front limbs, several meters long, to pick up the corpse of a Human Soldier and send it into its mouthparts. Suddenly, a whistling sound breaking through the sky echoed.
The Spider Bug put down the food in its hand and rolled its compound eyes upwards. In the dark green sky, a thick cylindrical object was vaguely visible disintegrating in mid-air, turning into hundreds of missiles heading towards the entire Defense Line.
"Boom boom boom boom—"
"Boom boom boom————"
"Boom boom boom boom boom boom boom—"
Before the Spider Bug could react, a missile overhead smashed down towards it. The force generated by the explosion of a Jericho Missile directly covered an area of dozens of meters.
The surrounding Spider Bugs were instantly swallowed by the firelight of the explosion.
Over a thousand supersonic Jericho Missiles disintegrated into hundreds of thousands of cluster missiles in mid-air, instantly covering the entire lost Frontline Position of the First Battlefield.
Amidst the roar of explosions, accompanied by the wails of tens of thousands of Insects buried under this fierce firepower, the Frontline Position of the First Battlefield was illuminated by firelight like a fiery cloud.
The Allied Forces Soldiers on the First Battlefield launched a counterattack on the lost positions almost instantly after the Jericho Missiles were dropped. Soldiers carrying rocket launchers were at the front, using the red firelight as illumination. Any living being that could move was hit with a rocket from afar.
Then came various light and heavy machine guns and grenade launchers to supplement, followed by flamethrowers. "Jericho Missiles, we Federation Persons aren't that extravagant. What's the situation at our Frontline Position now?"
"Officer, with Wuzu, Chaos, and Bai Qi Support Model Robots, the position is still in our hands, but due to the time of day, the Battlefield situation is very unfavorable to us! Frontline Soldiers have suffered heavy casualties!"
In the Second Battlefield Command Post, General Wang, who was in charge of command, after communicating with the Federation Command Post, looked at a few good mates.
"Night combat is indeed very unfavorable to us, especially since we are unsure if these Insects have night vision ability!"
"Since the Battlefield environment is unfavorable to us, then change this Battlefield environment! Pass on my order, send an Air-Ground Brigade, from here to here," General Wang pointed at the virtual holographic projection sand table in front of him, "Drop twenty thousand tons of napalm bombs in batches!" "Since the Night Sky is unfavorable to me, we will turn this Night Sky into daytime, and let the corpses of these Insects illuminate us!"
"If using napalm bombs, I suggest abandoning the first trench of the Frontline Position to form a twenty-kilometer circular fire network, which can also reduce some pressure on the frontline!"
"Do we have enough gasoline reserves?"
"Don't worry, supplies are abundant. Earth is still continuously transporting supplies here!"
"Then let's do it! Also, notify the other battle areas of this plan. Whether they use it or not is their business!"
Facts proved that even alien Insects had little resistance to flames, let alone a great killer weapon like napalm bomb.
In the dark green Night Sky, hundreds of bombers took off from Temporary Airfields hundreds of kilometers away from the Frontline Battlefield. After these aircraft reached the Battlefield, they directly dropped tens of thousands of tons of napalm bombs onto the Battlefield.
Napalm bomb is arguably the most terrifying lethal weapon in the Human World, even a thousand times more terrifying than white phosphorus bomb.
The famous "LeMay's Barbecue" was when the Federation dropped tens of thousands of tons of napalm bombs on Japan for several months, burning and injuring nearly 500,000 Japanese people and destroying millions of houses.
The truly terrifying aspect of napalm bomb is that its principle is simple, its cost is extremely low, and it has low quality requirement for raw materials.
Its development cost is less than 0.02% of nuclear weapons, meaning it can be manufactured widely on a large scale. Around 1983, the World Security Council even convened a special meeting to agree to restrict and prohibit the use of napalm bomb and formulated a convention for strict control.
However, the convention is limited to protecting the rights and interests of various countries on Earth and humanity as a whole. For alien Insects, presumably no one would speak up for them.
Napalm bomb is composed of a trinity of gasoline, polymer glue, and white phosphorus. When these napalm bombs come into contact with Insects, they quickly penetrate the Insects' carapaces and flesh and blood, reaching the bone.
At the same time, due to the different factories producing these napalm bombs, some other materials were also added to these napalm bombs.
Calcium powder was added to these alkaline napalm bombs. When they come into contact with skin or liquid, a chemical reaction occurs, directly burning a hole in the Insect's carapace that is covered in gasoline.
Even if they jump into water, it will only intensify the corrosion of the calcium component;
Adding lead salt produces toxic gas during the reaction, causing these Insects to quickly become poisoned and unconscious; adding thermite increases the combustion temperature and rapidly consumes oxygen. Before these Bug Swarm could launch an attack, they would suffocate to death from lack of oxygen.
Accompanied by the roar of batches of aircraft, thousands of tons, tens of thousands of tons of napalm bombs were dropped onto the Battlefield.
Flames exceeding a thousand degrees Celsius burned fiercely on the Battlefield. Countless Insects struggled and hissed in the sea of fire. The Battlefield temporarily resembled a hell of flames. As General Wang said, the entire Battlefield was illuminated like daytime.
