One Thousand Eight Hundred and Twenty-Eight I Know Its Value

Australia.

The special forces that repelled the insect cavalry gathered around Carlos again. Everyone was more or less grateful for surviving the disaster, even Carlos was no exception.

However, Carlos refused to let go and refused to reveal more information, which made everyone very annoyed. Every look at Carlos was filled with suppressed anger.

Luo Qi knew that he couldn't pry Carlos' mouth open, so he simply threw Carlos aside, pulled out the rifle from under a bug corpse, took it in his hand, and carefully examined it.

This is a pure black bullpup rifle with a slender barrel and a translucent plastic magazine. It looks very delicate and gives Luo Qi a very familiar feeling.

Pulling out the magazine and taking out the bullet, he recognized at a glance that this is a 5.56mm rifle bullet commonly used in the West.

The special forces are all professional soldiers. Each member knows the standard equipment well and has a certain understanding of foreign military equipment. The standard equipment of various countries can basically be recognized at a glance.

But he had never seen this kind of rifle before. The gun body was a bit like AUG, but there were differences in details. He searched through his memory, but still couldn't recognize the origin of this rifle.

But 5.56mm bullets are too common. Luo Qi dared to guarantee with his head that this must be a standard rifle of a certain Western country, and it might even be an improved model of a famous rifle.

Considering that these weapons appeared in large numbers in the hands of the insect people, Luo Qi felt that he was very close to the truth: the original standard weapon of the Australian army was an improved version of AUG, so the rifles in the hands of the insect people were probably the standard weapons of the original Australian army!

Australia was one of the first few regions to be invaded by aliens, second only to South America and Africa. However, the aliens landed in Australia in 2030, which was the tenth year after the outbreak of the insect plague and six years after the first fleet's expedition to Jupiter. The Australian army had long been fully equipped with large-caliber rifles that were more suitable for dealing with giant insects. Most of the original small-caliber rifles were recycled and preserved, and about one-third flowed into the private sector.

These rifles should be the arsenal left by the Australian army that the aliens found, and for some purpose, they gave these human weapons to the insect people for use.

This can also explain why the Zerg have mortars. Maybe the Zerg have other heavy weapons that originally belonged to humans... Thinking of this, Luo Qi couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat. If it weren't for the timely support of the Languan, if the battle dragged on for a while, I really don't know what the Zerg would show!

Well, Zerg riders plus rifles, could it be that the aliens can't build tanks and armored vehicles, so they have to settle for the second best, using the method of Zerg riders carrying Zerg to create a rapid reaction force belonging to aliens?

The more Luo Qi thought about it, the more frightened he became.

He was already 80% sure in his heart that the information Carlos had was either the location of the arsenal, or the detailed information on the Zerg's thermal weapons, or both.

He really wanted to throw the rifle in front of Carlos to see what Carlos' expression was, but Luo Qi knew very well that no matter whether his guess was right or not, Carlos would never admit it.

Another thing is that he has long passed the age of fighting for victory, and even if he guessed right, he didn't think there was any point in slapping him in the face.

Just as they were thinking about whether to evacuate the battlefield and find a safe place to settle down as soon as possible, a team member suddenly pointed to the sky: "Look, airdrop!"

Everyone subconsciously looked up and immediately saw several meteors in the sky lined up and fell straight to the hillside... Only orbital airdrops can have such a neat formation.

Luo Qi immediately ordered the team to assemble and carefully protect Carlos.

The communication was interrupted. Luo Qi didn't know whether the troops in the sky were from the Languan, or maybe from the allies of other assault ships.

If it was his own people, it would be fine. If it was a force sent by the allies, then it would definitely not be so simple for them to choose to airdrop at this time, so Carlos must be watched immediately.

The airdrop capsule soon exploded above the hillside, and more than a dozen people wearing power armor fell freely for a while, and the deceleration parachutes opened one by one.

Luo Qi saw the armor on these people clearly and immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

Everyone landed on the hillside smoothly. Ye Han threw away the parachute and tried to say on the radio: "Luo Qi?"

"Here!" Luo Qi's distorted voice came into Ye Han's ears.

Ye Han said: "Bring people over and get the equipment!"

"Understood!" Luo Qi immediately led the team to meet him. He just saw several airdrop boxes landed on the hillside and was still guessing what was in them.

When Luo Qi brought Carlos to Ye Han, Ye Han was carrying a portable mortar on his back.

This thing is also called a backpack grenade launcher. It is a medium-sized weapon backpack. In addition to a 60mm caliber barrel on the side, the remaining space in the backpack is filled with shells, each of which is the size of a fist, a total of 48 rounds.

When firing, the armor's fire control system is responsible for aiming, and the armor's motion system provides support. The shells are sent into the barrel from a position close to the muzzle and fired by sliding down under gravity. The firing principle is no different from that of ordinary mortars.

The only difference is the shells. In order to reduce the volume, the tail of the shells is made of high-strength materials and telescopic design, and it will only unfold under the action of inertia after firing.

And due to the size, each shell has only basic propellant, and cannot temporarily increase the propellant bag like the standard shells, so the range is not as good as the same caliber model of the army.

Although this shell is small in size, it uses the best high-energy explosives, and its power is a little stronger than other models of the same caliber.

It is not the best heavy weapon of the special forces, but it is the most suitable support firepower for the current situation.

Luo Qi walked quickly to Ye Han and helped Ye Han hang the backpack on his back: "Captain, Carlos is here!"

Ye Han tested the weight of the backpack and turned to look at the half-human, half-ant insect man: "Carlos, we meet again."

Then he whispered the previous situation again, and finally added his own guess.

Carlos asked suspiciously: "Who are you?"

He had contact with Ye Han a lot in the past, but after many years, many memories have faded, so he only felt that the voice was very familiar, but he didn't remember who Ye Han was.

Ye Han couldn't help laughing: "I am Ye Han, what? Don't you remember me?"

Carlos suddenly realized: "It turned out to be you..."

Thinking of the past on Buha Island, he couldn't help but feel a little uneasy in his heart.

Ye Han asked like he was chatting with a family: "Tell me, what do you know?"

Carlos knew that Ye Han's position and rank were among the ranks of senior officials, but he hesitated for a while and shook his head to refuse: "I have to be in a safe place before I can tell you the information!"

Ye Han frowned, but he immediately agreed: "Okay, you'd better know what you're doing!"

Carlos heard the warning in the words, but he was relieved in his heart: "Don't worry, I know its value!"
