Take the earth to enshrine the gods

Chapter 293 Shrimp Soldiers and Crab Generals
On the sixth day of June, by the Liusha River.

A reinforced concrete cable-stayed bridge spans the endless river.

This should be Yu Yutian's first reinforced concrete bridge across the river, marking that the fiefdom has reached a new height in the field of infrastructure and is becoming more and more mature.

In the future, the more convenient, stronger and more durable reinforced concrete structure is bound to replace the current mainstream masonry structure and wooden structure and become the mainstream choice in the field of fiefdom construction.

There was a huge crowd of people on the bridge, including people from both places who came to watch the ceremony.

Qianyuan and Luo Mengli were naturally the focus of the audience.

After the ribbon-cutting ceremony, Qian Yuan was about to respond to Luo Mengli's invitation and go to Chaoge City, when the river surface not far away suddenly changed.

Due to the large amount of sand in the upstream, the quicksand river has always been turbid.

I saw the yellow river water downstream suddenly rolling, setting off huge waves one after another. It was obviously river water, but it created a feeling of a turbulent sea.

The huge waves emptied, rolled higher and higher, and soon reached the level of the bridge.

Then I saw a group of sea monsters holding steel forks, parting the overlapping water waves, revealing half of their hideous bodies, and rushing towards the bridge.

"The sea monster, it's the sea monster, the sea monster is here~~~"

Immediately, there was chaos on the bridge, Qian Yuan frowned slightly, and said to Xu Chu who was standing next to him: "Empty the irrelevant personnel and prepare to fight."

The Guard Brigade has 200 people here this time, and they are responsible for protecting Qianyuan.

"The last will obey!"

After Xu Chu took the order, he turned around and roared loudly: "Everyone back down!"

that voice,
The people who were shocked were deaf.

The amazing thing is that the crowd who were still in a panic just now calmed down one by one after being yelled at by Xu Chu, as if they had been swallowed by a magic talisman, and hurriedly fled to both sides of the bridge.

As for the guard brigade soldiers, they were already lined up on the bridge without Xu Chu's orders.

Also going out to fight were the five hundred Chaoge Army soldiers who were responsible for guarding the safety of Luoyun Queen Luo Mengli. They were also elite troops and were not too panicked.

They had dealt with sirens before.

In order to avoid command confusion, Qianyuan did not engage in any coalition forces. The two sides took the center of the bridge as a boundary and each guarded a section, waiting for the Kraken to attack.

Qian Yuan and Luo Mengli stood in the middle with calm expressions.

They still have this kind of tolerance.

Qian Yuan even observed the sea monster with great interest. Speaking of which, this was the first time he saw the sea monster, and he was very curious about this race that has been invading the coastal humans.

But seeing that the originally turbid river surface has turned red and black at this time.

It is mainly red.

Take a closer look at the red sea monster, with a pointed head, a pair of small eyes, and a pair of tentacles hanging from its cheeks. It has a long and thin body, the red carapace has not faded, and it holds a sharp gun.

Apart from that, there is no other equipment on the body.

Too,

Seeing that the Kraken's whole body is covered with a carapace, it is estimated that it does not need armor, and a weapon is enough.

In addition, iron ore in the sea is scarce, and it is difficult to mine it. Sirens are notoriously bad at forging. With these small soldiers, how can they expect to have other equipment.

Another kind of black sea monster, which is round and round, with a huge and round carapace on its back, a pair of large pincers in front of its body, holding a knife and ax, and baring its teeth and claws.

"Aren't these shrimp soldiers and crab generals?"

Qianyuan was so happy that he didn't expect to see the main members of the Dragon Palace Army described in "Journey to the West".So, the Siren King is a dragon? !

Is Ao Guang here?

While speaking, the group of shrimp soldiers and crab generals had already ridden the huge waves and came to kill them.

densely packed,

Squeeze the river to the brim.

"kill!"

There is no need to order, and there is no formation. The two sides are like mortal enemies for hundreds of years, and they will kill directly.

Qian Yuan turned his head to look at the Chaoge army first, and nodded unconsciously. Sure enough, there is no weak person who can arrange to protect the queen, and there is a certain amount of advance and retreat in the fight.

But compared with the Guards Brigade, it seems a bit unsightly.

I saw the guards brigades lined up in two rows. The soldiers in the front row held up their psychic shields with their left hands and easily deflected the sea monster's attack. They swung out the dark iron heavy swords in their right hands like lightning.

With a swipe, the shrimp head fell to the ground and rolled into the water waves.

The blue blood spattered on the brave suit armor, and it made a sizzling sound, which seemed to be corrosive.

Fortunately, the grit suit is well-made and has withstood the test.

Not to mention blood, even the weapons of shrimp soldiers and crab generals, when they hit the armor, they only made a ping-pong-pong sound, and they couldn't break the defense for a while.

At least in terms of equipment, the Guards Brigade is crushing.

And the soldiers of the Guards Brigade standing in the back row did not show any weakness. With the cover of their comrades in front, they abandoned their heavy swords and replaced them with long weapons - black iron spears.

The spear pierced out of the gap like lightning, piercing the shrimp soldiers.

Then, with a shake of the spear, the corpse of the shrimp soldier was dragged and fell into the waves below.I saw long spears stabbing out again and again, just like killing chickens, slaughtering the visiting enemies wantonly.

This efficiency,
Simply jaw-dropping.

The sea-monster, who seemed to be invincible, did not please him at all in front of the guards.

In a blink of an eye, under the bridge on the guard side of the Personal Guard Brigade, there was a body of corpses floating in the water, paired with quicksand river water, it was like a big pot of seafood stewed in disorder.

Extremely spectacular.

Luo Mengli noticed this scene, with an envious expression on her face, she turned to Qian Yuan and said, "Can you sell some of this kind of equipment to Luoyun Kingdom? The price is not a problem."

It's no wonder that Luo Mengli is rich and powerful, Chaoge County is a well-known wealthy county in the Eastern Continent.

Qian Yuan smiled and said, "This is our new equipment. The feudal army hasn't finished changing their equipment yet. If we want to export it, we will have to wait until next year at least."

"Then I'm the first one to make a reservation, please sell it to us first." Luo Mengli said hastily.

"no problem."

Qian Yuan readily agreed, and he didn't have any worries about selling it to the Chaoge Army.

One year later, the third phase of the Xishan Armory has been expanded, and it is running at full capacity, working in two shifts, producing courage suits like an assembly line.

On average, two to three hundred sets can be produced a day.

In order to meet the factory's demand for refined iron and complete the entire army's equipment change as quickly as possible, Qianyuan even instructed the war preparation officer to build a large steel-making furnace to recycle the replaced standard equipment one by one and smelt it into refined iron blocks.

Originally, Qian Yuan planned to export the equipment that was bought out, and take the opportunity to make another fortune.

However, whether it is Luoyun Kingdom or Qingqiu Kingdom, the demand for weapons and equipment has become saturated, and there is no market within the empire.

I can't sell it even if I want to sell it.

It's better to smelt all of them to make more grit suits, and then use grit suits to make money.

This is not,

Luoyun Kingdom was the first to be tempted.

Qian Yuan believed that after the bravery suit showed its power on the battlefield, the kings of Wei, Chu, and even the new emperor would all have the desire to buy the bravery suit.

By then, you won’t have to worry about making any money.

And Qianyuan is not worried that these people will be able to offset the equipment advantages of the fiefdom army after completing the change.

One export is limited, they can't equip the entire army with courage suits like the fiefdoms, and at most they are only used to equip elite troops.

More importantly, the War Machine Research Institute had already started the research and development of a higher-level "loyal weapon suit" a year ago.

A few days ago, a sample of the Zhongwu suit has been produced, and the related equipment is also in the final adjustment, but it has not been able to be mass-produced due to the limited black iron reserve.

And if the Bravery Suit can be exchanged for a large amount of fine iron or even black iron, then this problem will be easily solved.

At that time, the fiefdom army will still have an overwhelming advantage in equipment.

This is called sucking the blood of the enemy to strengthen oneself.

Perhaps it was the efficient killing of the Guards Brigade that shocked the invading Kraken. While the two were talking, those shrimp soldiers and crab generals who had been attacking menacingly just now began to retreat.

One by one, they sank into the water and disappeared without a trace in the blink of an eye.

The water of the river dropped, and the river surface became calm again.

If it weren't for the countless corpses floating on the river, I would have thought that nothing had happened.

This time, Luo Mengli's confidence in purchasing equipment was further strengthened.

"It's kind of weird." Luo Mengli looked puzzled.

"What's wrong?" Qian Yuan asked.

"These sea monsters are all unfamiliar species, and they have never appeared before." Luo Mengli has been in charge of Luoyun Kingdom for so long, and has a relatively deep understanding of sea monsters.

In the past hundreds of years, the sea monsters that attacked humans were basically fish monsters, such as mussels, mermaids, bone fish, carp, etc. I have never seen any shrimp soldiers and crab generals.

"It's not surprising, there are tens of thousands of sea monsters, and it's normal for new species to appear." Qian Yuan didn't think much about it, because in his cognition, wouldn't shrimp soldiers and crabs be standard equipment in the sea? !

"maybe."

Luo Mengli's doubts were hard to dispel, but she didn't know how to explain it, so she could only put it aside temporarily, and said instead: "The sea monsters have become more and more rampant in the past six months, and they all came along the river and entered the inland."

"It's a little abnormal."

On this point, Qian Yuan agrees very much.
