Earth Invasion

Chapter 165

"Slave trader?" Zhang Mai looked at the message sent to Aida's personal terminal.There was an oil lamp on the table next to him, and the dim light shone on his face, making his face look cloudy and uncertain.

"And there are quite a few children." Ada was wearing a coat and sitting opposite Zhang Mai.She didn't even put on her clothes, so she ran to Zhang Mai.Regarding the use of the exoskeleton, she always had to discuss it with Zhang Mai.

"Then let's gather the team quickly and prepare to save people!" As he said, Zhang Mai grabbed the tight driving suit next to him and was about to put it on, but Aida stopped him.

Sometimes Zhang Mai is impulsive, but Ada's identity determines that she cannot be impulsive, or that she has no capital to be impulsive.Now there are only nine PAs and exoskeletons in Zhangmai.And the information sent back by the scout named Xiao En did not contain the specific strength of the earthlings.In other words, it is not known how many Earthlings have come.But judging from the three container transport vehicles, there are at least six PAs. It is not clear whether there are multiple tanks.

How should I use my nine exoskeletons? !To save people, or honestly as a mobile defense force?Going to save people now, will there be any losses? Can I afford to lose?
To be honest, Ada really didn't know how to choose.Now she is not the original symbol in the guerrillas, but the real commander!She had to think everything through.

So after stopping Zhang Mai, she opened her mouth and said nothing in the end.

But Zhang Mai saw Ada's hesitation.

"Cousin Aida, maybe I don't feel pain in my back when I stand and talk..." Signaling Aida to turn around, he put on his driving suit, Zhang Mai said.

"There is a saying in our hometown that people can be beaten to death, but not scared to death. I know these exoskeletons are very precious to you. However, these things are tools, and tools are for use. We have been offering This, isn’t it useless? Besides, I’ll just assemble it without it.”

Aida turned her back to Zhang Mai, listening to the sound of him changing clothes.She laughed at herself, she actually wanted an outsider who had just entered the battlefield to persuade her.

Yes, no more assembly.But what is now, the harsh reality now is that the lives of the Assyrians are not as important as these exoskeletons.Ada was struggling fiercely in her mind, but she couldn't say the words that stopped Zhang Mai.

"Cousin Aida, I know what you are thinking. In fact, you are really similar to us. Although I have never seen it, I have seen it in books and materials. More than 470 years ago, our martyrs They lack everything just like you. Facing the enemy, they even share one gun with several people. In order to save bullets, they often shoot twice before going up to hand-to-hand combat. At that time, human life was not as important as bullets. I am not qualified to comment on this practice. Yes, but I always feel that when a person dies, everything is over. Those slave traders are inhumane. Anyway, if we don’t go, those who were taken away will never come back whole. You should be guerrillas Why? Isn’t it just for your people to stop being tossed around as cargo and livestock. What about me? Assemble the exoskeleton for you, what is the purpose of coming here? It’s not for us people on earth to do less evil.”

With that said, Zhang Mai had already put on his driving suit, and the pistol was pinned in the holster under his ribs.

"Wheat." Ada turned around, "I don't know what to say about you. Well, as you said, why are we being guerrillas? Not to fight against these scumbags! Let's gather immediately, Let's go now!"

"Okay!" Zhang Mai raised his legs and walked out, and Aida caught him unexpectedly.

"Maizi, there is something I must tell you clearly!"

Zhang Mai was taken aback for a moment, he found that Aida was quite serious, he couldn't help but stopped, and subconsciously stood up straight.

"Stay in the middle of the line, don't run around! And don't rush up! Otherwise, you'll just stay in the camp at Oak Ridge!"

"But I... Cousin Ida! Only my PA has armor, and you are wearing exoskeletons!"

"I know this very well! But Maizi, you have to know the importance of yourself! We Assyrians have already killed so many people, and we are used to it! But you can't! One of our people sacrificed, There will be another one coming up, if something goes wrong with you! Who will repair our equipment! Who will manufacture our weapons?!"

As she said, Aida pushed Zhang Mai back on the bed, "Once you violate it, I'll send you back to Besto, don't go, follow me honestly!"

It would be foolish to compare strength with the Assyrians, so Zhang Mai had no choice but to agree.

The guerrillas agreed with Ada's action, but when the group left the Oak Ridge camp, the camp commander stopped them.

"Those women and children are very pitiful, but Miss Ada! Our most important task now is to guard Oak Ridge, which is the southern gate of Cloverland. What if those children and women are William's trap? Without your weapons, Oak Ridge can't hold it!"

Ada sighed, she didn't think so at first.Looking at the soldiers of the defenders who surrounded her, she felt that it was necessary to have a good talk with them.

"Listen, have you ever wondered what we're defending Oak Ridge against Earthlings?"

Everyone was stunned, yes, why are we fighting against the earthlings?Isn't this very clear, we are for our sake of not being enslaved!
"Yes, not to be enslaved! We are not enslaved for our people, for our parents, family members, and children can no longer be afraid! Therefore, we cannot take those captives for the reason of defending Oak Ridge Leave it alone! Defending Oak Ridge is to better protect our family, don't put the cart before the horse!"

"I think you'd better think about it differently." Zhang Mai opened the PA's visor, "If your family members are killed by Earthlings..." Zhang Mai paused for a moment, and then added some words.

"If you are captured by the scum among the people on Earth, do you want someone to rescue them! If someone who has the ability to rescue them says, I want to defend XX place and I can't rescue them, what will you think!?"

That's right, what if it's our family members... The crowd around fell silent.

"We have resisted the people on Earth for so many years. Didn't we fight the same way when we didn't have these weapons?" A guerrilla named Matt next to Zhang Mai tapped the exoskeleton on his body. At that time, I had some earthen rifles in my hand, so it was different from fighting with the earthen hunters. You regular army is not as good as us guerrillas?"

People are bloody, and speaking of this, no one has any objections to them saving people.Everyone dispersed one after another, and then returned to their posts, tightly grasping their weapons.In this era, the only thing we can do is to be loyal to our duties!
The exoskeleton connected to the metal hydrogen battery is very fast, and the fronts that are more than ten kilometers away will arrive in a while.The effective range of the Assyrian bronze artillery is about two or three kilometers, and it is basically far out of contact after more than ten kilometers.Moreover, this is a hilly area, and the undulating terrain also makes it difficult to attack anything on a large scale.

The exoskeleton driven by the metal-hydrogen battery generates very low heat, so it can fool the infrared imaging device on the PA with a little preparation for heat dissipation. After Zhang Mai confirmed it with his own PA, everyone passed William like a ghost. Lines laid out in the area south of Oak Ridge.In the meantime, everyone located the personal terminal of scout Sean through Zhang Mai's PA, and everyone found him two or three kilometers away from the other party's camp.

Sean introduced the internal situation, and everyone held a small meeting.

"The total number of people is about 110, and the number of children is about 20. There are three robot monsters discovered so far, and the rest may be sleeping or something." Sean still described PA like an ordinary Assyrian. For the first time, Zhang Mai wanted to correct it, but after thinking about it, he gave up again.Just head on, there's nothing wrong with those bastards calling their heads.

"Have you found the multi-legged chariot?" Ada asked, seeing Sean's questioning expression, she added another sentence.

"It's something that looks like a giant six-legged spider."

"No!" Sean shook his head like a rattle, "I won't remember such an impressive thing, and I didn't find any barracks hiding such monsters."

Aida and Zhang Mai glanced at each other. There were no multi-legged chariots, so the difficulty was much lower.

After everyone crossed the battle line, they continued to move forward.Everyone wisely did not choose to directly attack the rear of the opponent's camp. That is no longer a reckless act, it is almost called death.The exoskeleton only allows the Assyrian to have the capital against the PA armor, but it does not provide protection.The bronze cannons of the Assyrians can kill exoskeleton-wearing partisans as well as battle axes.

Therefore, the best way is to wait for these earthlings to leave the camp of William's army and ambush them after leaving.

To the south of Oak Ridge is the Agron River, which is one of the runoffs with the most abundant water in Kilcoyne Territory, and can pass larger ships. Veneto.Ada and the others told each other the plan of the earth slave trader.According to the general situation and their habit of enjoying themselves, riding an off-road truck in the wild is not a comfortable thing.And going down the river by boat is smooth and comfortable.After the meager profit is within, then change to a truck and go to Twilight City through a simple road, which is what people on earth will do.

The best chance of ambushes is when they leave the barracks and go to the crossing of the Agron River, and they can attack them at any time on the road.Of course, their raids are most effective when changing ships.

"The nearest wharf of the Agron River here is Bai'an. From here to the southwest, it may take half a day to ride a horse, and it takes almost two or three hours to travel by iron cart for people on earth." Over the years, the Assyrians accepted the earth. One of the fastest aspects of human culture is the concept of time. They have basically accepted the way that people on earth divide a day into 24 hours.

"What about the road conditions?" Ada continued to ask, she was not very familiar with Kilcoyne.

"It's just an ordinary road stepped by army horses and shield dragons. It's not built by those earthlings in Twilight. It's as flat as a mirror." Sean admires the earthlings' ability to build roads the most. The high-standard roads built by people themselves with stones and rammed earth are much more advanced.

"So, even if it's their off-road truck, they can't pick up the speed." Zhang Mai nodded, "It's more sure to make an ambush like this. Since there is a road, let's dig a hole in the place where they want to pass in advance , Stop them and talk!"

"Why not attack them at the ferry!" Matt asked.

Aida didn't speak, and Zhang Mai continued to explain to him: "I think there must be no special car ferry on the Assyrian planet, or here, at the ferry of the Agron River."

"Car ferry?" Zhang Mai used Chinese again, but none of the group understood.

"It's a ship that specializes in transporting iron cars." Zhang Mai explained patiently, "It is very troublesome to put cars on ordinary ships. Although I don't know whether your ships have high freeboard or low freeboard, but you need Preparations in advance are unavoidable, at least there must be enough ballast to reduce the swing of the ship to an acceptable level, and then build a trestle that is wide enough and strong. These need to be prepared in advance. There are a lot of support staff on the shore ferry. If I guess correctly, I am afraid there are even heavy PAs and multi-legged chariots. Don’t forget that the multi-legged chariots of our earthlings can be replaced with lifting modules for passenger ship construction machinery. .Once there are multi-legged tanks, it will be very difficult for us to fight against."

It turns out that everyone suddenly realized that there are so many reasons for the equipment of the earthlings.It seems that we need to study the daily life of the people on earth.Including all their production and lifestyles, otherwise I would not be able to correctly predict the actions of the people on earth.

"In that case, we have to choose a place where neither the White Coast Ferry nor the Oak Ridge Barracks can be rescued." Ada opened the digital map on her personal terminal, and searched between the White Coast Ferry and Oak Ridge.Then she pointed to a small village on the map and said, "How is it here?"

"Yangshu Village..." Everyone chewed on the name, and Ada enlarged the picture on her personal terminal to let everyone see clearly.

"It seems that Yangshu Village is not like this." Xiao En said, he looked at the vibrant Yangshu Village on the map with some puzzlement, "This village is already dilapidated. I remember that there were no people in this village last year. But this road It went through the village."

"It should be that Cousin Aida's map has not been updated." Zhang Mai took out his personal terminal, connected his data cable to Ada's, and the synchronization was completed in a short while, and the image on it changed. look.

More than 30 households are distributed along both sides of the road, which seems to be a very good ambush location.

This is the place!
At this time, in Bestobe, the capital of Serraronte, weaving an Assyrian-style shawl with a group of women under the light, it is made of the down of a local deer, which is light and soft. According to the report brought by Li Chiqi, this kind of shawl is very popular and the price is very high.So, the Duke of Ravons is mobilizing to weave these shawls, and Ann is helping too.

Accidentally, she was pierced by the shuttle.While sucking in her mouth, her heart flew to distant Kilcoyne.

"I don't know what happened to the wheat."
