As the checkpoint was about to be finalized, the crowd finally appeared a hundred meters in front of them.

"Those people are almost 2,000 people, and we only have more than 30 people, how can we stop so many people?" Seeing the black pressure in front of him, even those veterans who had experienced the war were a little breathless, and many people loaded the guns and bullets in their hands and aimed them at the crowd who were silent and silent even if they saw the army.

"Attention everyone!" A sergeant stood next to the Humvee, picked up the intercom on the car, and began to shout to the crowd through the car loudspeaker, "I repeat, this is a military checkpoint, you can't pass through casually, everyone has to go through the military inspection before they can leave." ”

However, in the face of the shouts of the military, the men continued to walk towards the checkpoint in silence without any sign of stopping.

Most of the soldiers at the checkpoint were a little overwhelmed by the situation, but Captain Cheney reacted immediately, snatched the sergeant's intercom from his hand, and shouted a warning to the crowd: "I order you to stop immediately!" Otherwise we will use force! I warn you! Do not ignore the requirements of the military! ”

"It's useless!" The sergeant looked at the crowd in surprise and said, "It's like they didn't hear it!" ”

"Warning shot!" Captain Cheney tossed the intercom back to the sergeant and ordered, "Be careful not to hit anyone." ”

Hearing his words, two machine guns mounted on both sides of the street swept out a shuttle! Those who were at the forefront of the road, the ground in front of them was immediately shattered by the dense bullets, leaving dozens of fist-sized holes!

The crowd stopped.

"It's finally stopped, we have to shoot." Captain Cheney breathed a sigh of relief, reached out and lifted his helmet, and wiped the sweat from his forehead, he was actually very nervous just now, if those people ignored the warning shots, he didn't dare to guarantee that he would not give the order to actually open fire on the crowd.

However, to everyone's surprise, it was not. The crowd stopped for less than a minute, not even enough time for the soldiers at the checkpoint to let the reapers out of the gap and then walk out of the checkpoint to check on the people. The crowd that had already stopped began to run towards the checkpoint!

"Stop! Stand still! "One soldier shouted loudly and fired a shot into the sky, but it didn't work, and the crowd continued to rush to the checkpoint! The short distance of 100 meters was quickly swept by them!

"Woo!" As the soldiers raised their guns, hesitating to shoot at civilians. From the houses on both sides of the road, more than a dozen black things were thrown out by someone, and all of them fell into the crowd, and then erupted and swelled out a ball of azure blue spherical light, enveloping the surrounding crowd! Each spherical film has a radius of 50 meters! And these objects that can burst out of spherical light film just cover everyone!

These blue spherical light films came and went quickly, but in just three seconds, they disappeared into the night!

To the astonishment of the soldiers at the checkpoint, these civilians, who seemed to have gone crazy, were now all lying to the ground, motionless. I don't know if I'm dead or unconscious.

At this time, from the houses on both sides of the road, dozens of warriors in full armor came out. This caused the soldiers to raise their guns again in horror, and then put them down again, and they recognized the identities of these men.

"Soldiers of Iron Eagle?" Captain Cheney climbed out of the fortifications at the checkpoint and ran towards the men.

"You ...... What's going on? He saw these Iron Eagle soldiers go straight to the fallen crowd and keep taking a strange-shaped object from people's heads and throwing it on the ground.

"You're in charge here?" An Iron Eagle warrior greeted him, "Then call all your men over to help." ”

"Wait a minute, what's going on? And what happened to them? You killed them all? Captain Cheney asked, holding the Iron Eagle warrior.

"As you can see, these people are controlled." The Iron Eagle warrior picked up an item from the ground that had just been thrown on the ground and handed it to Cheney. "Now they are all alive, but they have to be taken to the hospital for some treatment and recuperation."

Captain Cheney took the thing, looked left and right in the light, and noticed. It was an electronic device that looked like an octopus, snapped right on a person's head, and could be tweaked a little.

"Can you explain the situation?" After seeing this, the captain asked again, "We are in a daze now, and there is no way to report the details to the higher-ups. ”

"The enemy changed tactics." Iron Eagle's warrior explained. "They gather the civilians in their control area, and instead of slaughtering, they use this device to control the brains of these civilians and let them attack the defenders' positions." With the slightest hesitation, they will be able to break through your defenses, and then the enemy will take the opportunity to take the position. A defender's position has already been captured in this way, with considerable losses to both civilians and your soldiers. At least 300 civilians and 30 soldiers were killed, and the number of wounded was several times higher. This group is the one who broke through your defenses before. It's just that you haven't been informed of this situation by your superiors yet, so most of you on your side, including Major Carter, don't know about it yet. ”

"But how do you know how to deal with this?" Captain Cheney asked puzzled, he pointed to the people on the ground, "The weapon you used just now seems to be targeted, how do you know about this attack of the enemy?" ”

"That's just an EMP grenade, specifically designed to deal with electronics." The warrior raised the device in his hand, "The part where this thing is connected to the human brain is a very delicate electronic component, which can be completely destroyed by EMP in one go. As for how we know that EMP works......" He paused and pointed to the other end of the street, "Our boss grabbed one alive and analyzed these devices, so we will naturally know, and this EMP grenade is originally our standard equipment, and everyone has at least one on them." ”

"And this grenade ...... against those weird weapons," Cheney gestured into the distance, referring to how effective the EMP grenade would be against hovering vehicles and quadruped robots.

"It doesn't have much effect on those large weapons." Knowing what the captain meant, the Iron Eagle warrior shrugged, "We've tested them, and they've done a good job of anti-electromagnetic treatment, so the EMP grenade can only work against this kind of small device." ”

Patting his face, Captain Cheney breathed a long sigh of relief: "Well, I already understand the general situation, now what do you need us to do?" ”

"Didn't I just say that?" Iron Eagle's warrior took another octopus-shaped controller, "Call your people and help them get these things together." Although these things have already been destroyed by EMP grenades to destroy the main electronic components, if they are not removed, who knows what else will be wrong. There are more than 2,000 people here, and just those of us can't keep it busy. ”

"I see." Cheney nodded, then beckoned to the soldiers at the checkpoint, leaving the two Reapers, a few on guard, and the others to help remove the device.

But they still don't have enough manpower, the two groups together are less than 100 people, but it takes about half a minute to remove the ghost thing from the heads of more than 2,000 people, each one, after all, the device is inserted into the heads of those civilians, and you have to be careful not to hurt them again. On top of that, they had to move the civilians who had taken off their head controls to other locations, which was a lot of work.

Fortunately, half an hour later, new reinforcements arrived. Colonel Coles, who got the news here, sent a company of infantry to the area by car, and brought a number of transport vehicles to transport the civilians who had removed the controls back to the safe zone. And Iron Eagle also had a platoon of soldiers coming over. This has made them move a lot faster.

However, this quiet work did not last long. (To be continued.) )
