"Got it, got it!" The young and handsome young master tugged at his bow tie, "Don't disturb my interest!" After speaking, he picked up a glass of red wine and walked towards the next person to talk to, a beautiful lady.
Beautiful women, wine, and delicious food, in this luxuriously decorated palace, it is like a paradise on earth, which makes people linger and indulge in this false peace and beauty.
With skinny corpses, broken weapons, and burning flags, groups of rebel farmers or rioting hungry people gathered in groups, looking for anything edible from the corpses, including the corpses themselves. something to eat.
There are a few grains of wheat floating in the sparse clear soup. As the leader of this team, he is annoyed by stirring the spoon, trying to find more ingredients. He thought that defeating these officers and soldiers would get the food, but he never expected that these third-line troops The provisions are not much better than these mobs.
As a result, not only did he not get much supplies, but he also had a group of mouths to eat. It was not that he wanted to live or take prisoners, but he was forced to accept these officers and soldiers. Anyway, these people have received a little bit of training and know how to use them. those weapons.
"Boss, there is news. All the officials in the city have gone to the New Year's Ball. The master is not watching. Those stupid soldiers are hiding in the outpost, and there is no one on the tower." The spies who went out to inquire about the news returned happily. return.
He had a horrible face, his nose and ears had to be cut off due to low temperature damage, half of his head was covered with gauze, and most of his fingers and toes were frozen off. He looked no different from a beggar on the side of the road who was about to freeze to death What's the difference? The only possible difference is that after joining the team of hungry people, he ate a little something, and his body looked a little warm.
"Really?" The boss stood up. He didn't look good. Even if he enjoyed the most priority supplies of the entire team, he couldn't grab anything in the wild. He was also missing an ear and a finger. The scars left by chilblains, big and small.
"Take out all the stored food for extra meals. We will take down this city today and let everyone have a full meal!" Instead of dying from freezing and starving in the wild in winter, it is better to simply die in the siege battle. .
When they heard that there was an extra meal, the numb people got a little bit more energetic, and stuffed half-cooked wheat mixed with grass roots, bark and other edible things into their stomachs to get enough calories.
Soon, a mighty crowd gathered together, like a black colony of ants, silent and terrifying, "Take down the elevator, open the gate, then rush in and set fire everywhere. Our goal is the granary. Let the people disperse and let them plunder, gather again after three days, and organize the living people into a new team."
The boss began to assign tasks. This kind of thing has been done many times when attacking villages, but now the target has changed from a village to a city.
And the reason why they didn't continue to destroy the village was not because of their conscience, but because the villages in the wild are as poor as they are now, and even many villages don't need to be attacked, so they come to join the group with people and what little food and grass they have left. .
For the remaining villages that can persist, it is useless to fight. The calories provided by that little food are not enough to go so far to fight what they provide.
The only way is to attack mobile towns and large manors. The former has a large population and is heavily guarded, while the latter cannot grab any good things. After losing a few manors, those gentlemen sent supplies into the city.
Normally, wild thieves would plunder those valuable things, but now, they only want a bite to eat. Those gold and silverware, calligraphy and painting documents are useless and can only be used to burn fire.
Undoubtedly, this added a charge of "disgraceful to the gentleman", "burning the qin and boiling the crane" and "destroying cultural relics and culture"-of course, for them, not having An An starved to death is already the biggest sin, and the rest What is it?
At the same time, on the city tower, the huge ramp gates used to enter and exit the mobile city have been raised, and all the elevators have been closed, in order to prevent those refugees from outside the city from coming in and destroying the snow-watching nature of the gentlemen.
"Don't look, there's something nice outside, come in and warm up" the veteran in the duty room shouted, the stunned young man who was born as a small farmer outside actually stood guard in the cold wind, staring outside, "At this time, There won’t even be a rock crab outside, come in and enjoy the fire.”
The duty room made of metal is like a long arm protruding outward from the cliff. It is divided into two floors. The upper floor is the observation deck, and the lower floor is the duty area.
Such outward-spending structures are very common on the fringes of mobile cities, especially on both sides of gates and near large elevators.
For a mobile city, the towering bulwarks and drop-offs are its natural city walls. As long as the gates, elevators and skirt armor are not lowered, no one can easily enter the city.
Unless heavy weapons are used to forcibly blast away, or use warships and other mobile city blocks with almost the same deck height to jump, and use things like city-breaking spears to smash the relatively fragile barricades and blockades that block the upper part.
This is also the reason why the veterans are not worried about someone attacking the city at all. Those who can attack the city are all in the north of the mountains. These refugees in the south have smashed their teeth and don't even think about leaving a trace on the outer wall of the mobile city-state.
"I always have a bad feeling." The recruit stepped down from the watchtower, looking like something was burning in the brazier, "What is this?"
"Oh, the greeting cards and New Year's greetings from above, tsk, it's kind of useful." The veteran turned over the brazier, and the paper products and the wood he didn't know where were found were burning very enthusiastically.
"I heard that the people on the front line still have a can of canned food. Here, we only have these things that can be easily burned."
"Maybe there is no money?" "No wonder! Forget it, a good kid like you won't understand, anyway, today is the Winter Snow Festival, come, try it" The old soldier threw a cigarette , rolled in newspaper, it's hard to tell whether it's tobacco or something else.
"Cough cough cough, what is this?"
"I roll my own cigarettes, which are mixed with the shredded tobacco in the butts of cigarettes that others don't want. I named it 'Rainbow Color', isn't it very appropriate?"
"Ahem, cough, it's too choking." Several kinds of messy shredded tobacco and messy hay plants are mixed together. It's no wonder that it doesn't choke to death.
"Come on slowly, this thing needs to take a breath slowly, a little at a time." The veteran made a demonstration. At this moment, there seemed to be something colliding outside, "What sound?"
"Where is the iron sheet or the brand loose?"
This part of the duty room is regarded as the "chassis" of the mobile city, which is made of metal, but the peripheral area is not a high-performance alloy in the load-bearing area, but just some lightweight metal frames.
The building materials on the chassis are made of carbon material blocks. Carbon materials, even if resins or ketone compounds are added to prevent combustion, can only prevent the spread of fire under normal circumstances, that is, the normal 600~800 An open flame at a temperature of about [-] degrees Celsius cannot burn for a long time.
If it exceeds 850 degrees, it will definitely ignite. If it exceeds 1000 degrees, even buildings in densely populated cities with higher standards of fire prevention treatment will burn. In the original world line, Tallulah has proved this point It's okay, the flames and heat she released have not yet reached the level that can dry Amiya at close range, but they have already heated the central area of the city to the point of deflagration.
From this point of view, if Terra masters the Originium skill of heat, it seems quite simple to destroy the city with one blow, as long as it penetrates the layer of heat-resistant metal sheet or polymer outer wall panel outside the building.
And if you master W's ability to induce the explosion of Originium, it will be easier to destroy the city. You only need to know where the city's power core is, and then trigger a chain explosion of Originium, and you can collapse the entire city at least 300 meters high—— Regarding this point, Ms. W actually has some ideas.
After all, the hellish place of Terra is full of high-energy minerals, and cities are built on tons of high-density energy materials. The huge amount of high-energy materials stored and burned to drive the city's movement is the best bomb material. Compared with the difficulty of razing cities with reinforced concrete and lack of flammable and explosive materials, it is too simple to rely purely on external strikes.
And the refugees had obviously already grasped this "match" that was enough to ignite the city and blow the entire city to pieces.
Climbing up the bulwarks tens of meters high along the ropes in the cold wind is a very difficult task, but for those selected warriors, even if one or two fall down, they will not make any sound.
All sounds were drowned out by the noise of the cold wind and the rattling metal frames bearing the "Martial Law" sign, until the first man climbed onto the metal frame linking the multiple outer platforms.
Crawling along the metal support, two more people fell down. However, more people arrived at the predetermined position smoothly, silently and uniformly took out the source stone fragments hidden in the tattered clothes and stabbed them into their arms. The body already infected with ore disease reacts more violently when stimulated by foreign stones.
"Ahhhh!"
"Not good!" The recruit hurried out, but was thrown back by the blast.The infected people activated their Originium skills with maximum efficiency, and the entire bulwark resounded with subtle explosion sounds, and the energy pipeline exploded. Many infected people turned into dust and disappeared in the wind due to excessive use of Originium skills.
Accompanied by the sound of the explosion, the heavy gate shook twice, then slammed down and hit the wilderness, raising a thick cloud of smoke and dust.
"Kill!" The dense crowd spread like a black carpet, and rushed into the streets of the outer city along the sloping gate ramp. Soon, the city collapsed and collapsed bit by bit amidst the thick smoke and flames, and there were explosions one after another. And screams filled every inch of space.
"Happy Holidays" An unburned greeting card rolled over in the blast, smacked onto the scrap iron on the side of the road, was torn off by the passing refugees, and thrown into the burning building .
Chapter 82 Insects just change their way to accompany you
On the night of the Winter Snow Festival, it is the time for all families to celebrate the festival and reunite. At this time to offer sacrifices to the ancestors to beg for the happiness of the coming year, amidst the lingering green smoke and the sound of burning flames, half an hour ago The atmosphere that was still as dead as a tomb seemed to be swept away by this blessed air.
Warm and noisy voices resounded from the sky and the earth, as if all the gods were applauding in the heat wave-like air, enjoying the intoxicating warmth, and hesitantly preparing to bestow infinite happiness on mortals.
The golden and red rivers overflowed cheerfully and fiercely, and the golden-red waterfall hanging upside down on the windows and roof stretched out infinite tentacles towards the sky, as if they were also praying to the gods in the sky.
And those humble gray and black sacrifices that fell from the window to the polluted ground, no one took a second look, no matter whether they were once ragged or wrapped in silk, they were just burnt waste at this time.
Thousands of hungry people poured into the city along the slope, and the outer city was ignited immediately. The regular buildings were treated with fire protection, and some buildings in the outer city that also functioned as fortresses during the war would be covered. However, the privately built slums and various illegally expanded walled cities made all these fire prevention measures come to naught.
"Kill!" The simple weapons hit the military police who organized the defense hastily. At this moment, the stones and fists were equal to the sophisticated weapons in the opponent's hands. Soon, this thin line of defense was overwhelmed by the crowd. No one cared what they were stepping on, they just rushed forward blindly driven by the last trace of heat.
Soon, a thick layer of black was deposited under the high walls separating the slums and the urban area, and the struggling poor in the slums also became part of these hungry people. They took out their tools and any parts that could be used as weapons and armor .
And those men with a little bit of experience, who had been mercenaries or routs, stripped their armor and weapons from the dead garrison corpses, and acted as the middle force of the team.
This is a purely irrational group of beasts, but it presents a certain order in the chaos, as if it is how the evolution of the human group changes from a group of wild beasts to an orderly society. Those men with better equipment automatically Top in the front.
The man who used to be a carpenter or mason slammed the hammer on the wall again and again.
The loud human voice and impact sound were like drums beating on the hearts of everyone in the wall, "Quick, call someone, no, call someone to escort me away, now!"
"Don't worry about those extraneous things, hurry up, and wake up the ladies!" There was a panic in each luxurious mansion, some demanded to order the troops to suppress it immediately, and some were desperate to escape.
Others feel that these mobs have no guts to attack noble people like themselves—of course, they are not pure waste. The well-coordinated equipment of Originium spells and martial arts they have learned since childhood is not conceited to be those who wear robes waste.
"The wall is down!" Accompanied by the eardrum-piercing scream of an unknown female family member in the inner city, the high wall protecting the inner city collapsed, and the crowd holding torches made of various garbage and waste walked along the breach. Influx, glowing tides slammed into the defenses of the organized inner city garrison.
"Fire, fire, and beat them back!" The commander who had never seen such a scene turned pale with fright, and almost couldn't maintain his dignity. The dense bullets and crossbow arrows flattened the crowd.
Death and blood temporarily blocked the fanaticism of some opponents. However, as the outer city was looted, more people who did not grab food or anything useful came, and those poor people who were forced to engulf them even went to The military and police came over with their equipment, and soon the crowd was about to move again.
"What a bunch of stupid pigs!" Seeing more and more various equipment in the other party's crowd, the commander of the inner city garrison was about to explode. Under normal circumstances in the mobile city-state, most of the arsenals are distributed in the outer city, because there are directly connected to the city. There are even heavy artillery and spell boosting arrays in the enemy area.
Under normal circumstances, the garrison in the outer city will have to resist for at least a period of time, and there is an early warning time for fighting in mobile towns. The elites in the inner city can quickly maneuver to support the various outer battlefields, and use the equipment on the high wall to attack their own troops in street battles. support.
From a military point of view, this is a very tricky structure and design. If you add the intricate terrain under the deck that only the defenders can understand, the attacker will have to pay a thousand times the price to break into the inner city.
But these are only under ideal conditions. In fact, without warning, only the old, the weak, the sick, and the disabled and bullying the poor can be regarded as good-for-nothing waste, and the underground area is even more of a joke. , it would not be so naive, the drawings and so on are complete, but they have long been useless.
The lower deck has already become the chassis of poor peasants and vagrants, like the lower level of the Hive City. How many people are there below is like how many mice are there in the city?
But at this moment, when the armory was lost, and even some of the former guards became enemies, the materials and equipment to prevent the southerners from attacking became a crisis at this moment. The only thing to be thankful for is that the angle of the fort was stuck. , They were unable to mobilize heavy artillery to turn around and bomb the inner city.
However, this is not something to be happy about, because the origin stone spell crystal used as a cannonball can also be used as a powerful origin stone bomb. With a bayonet stabbed in their buttocks, these respectable people, who were still somewhat respectable before, rushed towards the defenders who seemed to bring them hope and salvation under the threat of pain and death.
If you don't look at the spell crystals that have entered the activated state on the backs of these people, the commander is very happy that the other party releases these difficult hostages. However, what is released at this time is a hot potato one by one. Going to the outer city to have fun at this time?To shoot or not to shoot?
If you shoot, then even if the suppression is successful, the family members of these young masters and their cronies will definitely retaliate against you, and if you don’t shoot, these young masters will be a death sentence. Not only will they blow up the defense line, but they will still detain themselves for rescue. black pot.
"Fire! Kill those with bombs on them!" At the end, the last trace of loyalty to the country and superiors made the commander order to open fire. Soon, these human bombs running around fell in front of the position, but the bombs that detonated became It became the drumbeat of a charge, and the dirty-faced man in ill-fitting armor rushed towards the position with a masonry hammer in his hand.
"Repel them! Crossbowmen, focus on those heavy units!" The commander immediately put all his previous worries behind him and ordered his men to open fire. Under the fierce firepower, the crowd who lacked training, physical fitness and tactics continued They were repulsed once, leaving a lot of corpses and blood, but this was just a short truce.
Outside the high wall, the city was burning. With the violent vibration, it was obvious that the gentlemen in the city were about to run away. The connecting devices were disconnected one by one, and the city modules were being separated.The split street immediately involved some guys who couldn't avoid it. From the structural point of view, the modules that the masters planned to separate not only included the outer city but also part of the inner city that had been caught in battle.
As long as the modules are separated, and these troops can persist for a period of time, they can drive the mobile city to run at high speed. As for the rest of the people, they can wait to die on these burning abandoned modules.
"Abandoned son?" The commander turned his head and glanced at the palace in the center of the city, his heart was as cold as this cold night.
"Crack!" The power was cut off, the central energy supply was terminated, and the regional generators seemed to have executed the shutdown and self-destruct orders. The urban area that had a little light at first fell into darkness, and only the buildings lit by the mobs became at this moment. The only light source, after losing power and energy, the cold wandered into everyone's body like a maggot attached to the bone.
"Seize the power station!"
"Stop them!"
"Are you going to die with us? You lackeys of the nobles!" The shouting on the other side caused the morale of the defenders to drop a lot in an instant, and it was too obvious that the masters were about to abandon them and run away.
"Don't listen to them, fire!" The crossbow arrows and bullets are like dams, and the surging crowd is like waves, colliding together on the river formed by this street, bloody and golden water splashes everywhere, every drop is one or several lives .
"Even if you stop us, so what? Our today is your tomorrow. You can't live on the abandoned modules and the wilderness. Do you think your family will be on the ark? Don't be naive! Even if you fight If you die here, your family members will only be thrown to us to vent your anger!"
The shouting from the opposite side appeared again, and this time the rhetoric shook the determination to resist even more profoundly.
"They're lying to you, open fire, fight them off..."
"Bang!" The commander looked at his adjutant in disbelief, the latter's face was covered with tears, "They didn't lie to us, that house belongs to me."
The adjutant looked at the buildings on the edge of the separatist zone that were being covered by boiling Originium steam due to forcibly cutting off power and energy, "Brothers, it's the opposite! Take the bridge head! Stop the separation!"
Many of the defenders were still in a trance and confusion, but soon they also saw the edge of the separation zone and the origin stone steam that represented infection and death.
The defense of the defenders made the line of defense almost collapse. Not only that, these relatively elite fighters knew the terrain better than the crowd composed of civilians and hungry people, and they were also better at fighting.
The noble guards guarding the separation control room didn't block it for long before they were rushed in by the crowd. If it wasn't for a few people with a little understanding who rescued the bruised and swollen engineer from the fist in time, the separation process would hardly be terminated.
Of course, even if it is terminated, the destroyed generators and the explosion and overpressure leakage parts caused by emergency cutoffs cannot be repaired. At least half of the functional areas of the mobile town module have failed, and the inner city simply cannot accommodate so many. People, their only way to survive is to drive the occupied core area of the inner city as a battleship to snatch the next city.
Before that, atrocities driven by anger and hunger were staged in every corner of the city, and the darkest and ugly side of human nature flowed back to those magnificent manors in a hundredfold way. , but more of the final precipitation of past resentment.
"It's chaos, it's chaos, it's chaos! These rioters must be defeated and hanged." Tracy looked at the aristocrat in front of him with a face full of incompetence and anger, and his two towns were destroyed. riots by the hungry.
A city that breaks away from the core city in time, of course leaves the starving people where they are, reveling and waiting to die in a dead and functionless city, but it also loses more than [-]% of a city's production capacity.
Even the core area of the other one was occupied, and the guards and defenders of the nobles joined in against the water. I have to say that this was also what Teresis expected. When this drama was evacuated to the north, he had already I've seen it once.
When the majesty of the nobles is gone, there is no more unreliable object than those personal guards, because they are different from the farmers and poor people who are planted by the emperor with a golden hoe in his mind.
