From the breakthrough in the Honghu Region to the eventual stabilization of the situation, the fierce battle lasted for a whole week, with more than thirty tactical nuclear bombs used on the battlefield, making Chen Xin think for a moment that the military intended to create an isolation zone with low-yield nuclear weapons.
In fact, if nuclear bombs could create an isolation zone to block the alien creatures, the military wouldn't hesitate to do so.
Unfortunately, the alien creatures were not so easily stopped; even if the excavated tunnels were collapsed by nuclear bombs, these creatures, so numerous they could trigger trypophobia, would still surge like a tide directly from the surface.
The method of collapsing underground tunnels only served to prevent them from bypassing the defenses and ambushing from below.
However, after destroying the majority of the tunnels dug by the aliens through underground water layers, their offensive was finally curbed.
