They still insisted on resisting because if these nobles died and they lived, their families would be sent to the mines or hanged, so they had to keep fighting.
"It's a shame, it's ugly." The patriot repeated it again. He felt the entire noble class of this country, and even the army that he had always been proud of. He always believed that even if it was corrupt, it would at least not rot. It's like this.
This is not a victory in war, sighed the patriot, it is only an incomplete sweep, and sweeping means that the rot and filth are still there and spreading, not worthy of any joy.
"Stop!" The patriots raised their heavy halberds, and the infected who kept trying to break into the control tower but were repulsed by the guards stopped in confusion and looked at their flags.
The nobles on the tower were slightly relieved. After all, Bozhuo Kasti is a warrior of Ursus, and he should have some respect for people like himself, maybe he can...
Before the nobles could breathe out completely, they heard a deep, hoarse and exceptionally clear voice, "There is no need to waste your life and time on this group of people, bring up the melta cannon, maximum power!"
"This is not a victory, this is not a battle, this is... a trial, and..." the patriot looked at the nobles on the tower, "execution!"
The infected happily helped the shield guards to lift up the heavy melta cannon. The specification of the melta gun with the external liquid cooling module is the same as that of the melta gun, but it is less likely to overheat, so that it can use more power Launch longer.
"Suppress!" The infected people didn't care whether their bodies in thin clothes would be burned, they pressed the melta cannon tightly to prevent it from flying out due to the recoil of the flames, and pressed countless hands on the fuel tank, pressing it into the cannon body, and pull the trigger!
Lie Yan's magic sword tore through the armor, cut off the pillars, and completely tore the synthetic jade line and the source stone cable. The crossed multi-melta cannons fired at the power of burning themselves, and the infected who suppressed them seemed not to care about their bodies at all. It smelled like roast meat, only the terrified faces of those nobles were in his eyes, and their screams were in his ears.
Finally, the entire control console collapsed. On the ruins, a flag handed over by a shield guard and an infected person stabbed hard into the top of the ruins. The flag was not a variety of colors and patterns, but it was the double-headed eagle flag of Ursus. It's just that the sword on the back has become a shield.
Chapter 84 The Flames of War Fading
The infected were unable to occupy this small mobile fortress, and the control tower was also destroyed. Unless it was taken to an industrial city for overhaul, it probably wouldn't be possible to turn it into a fortress for the infected.
And the next order is to take as much as you can, destroy the entire fortress as much as possible beyond repair, and the supplies inside can also allow the infected to survive a difficult but at least not fatal early spring.
The shield guards who followed Xia Lin to dismantle the warehouse of the Windrunner already had a little preliminary experience when dismantling these things. Compared with the beginners, the infected people concentrated on destroying those seemingly precise controls that were actually easy to repair. Unlike decks and panels, they focus on cable and pipe damage.
If you can cut the cable and take it away, take it away. If you can’t take it away, just randomly open a few openings, cut a few times in the east, and cut a few times in the west. Come on, she will cry out on the spot.
"Crack!" Ivan swiftly cut off the ends of a large number of unplugged cables, together with the markings on them. As for which end of the line corresponds to it, I left it to the engineers of Ursus to think about it.
In addition to cables, turrets, and origin stone devices must be disassembled and destroyed. Without these weapons, this mobile fortress is just a piece of scrap iron lying on the road.They could not monitor the roads and prevent the rebels from coming and going, and because of the huge tonnage and lost the ability to walk and move, it was difficult to move, and instead blocked the armored cluster of their own people.
"Ursas' reinforcements are coming soon, withdraw!" The shield guards drove away those infected who were unwilling to search the cabins to see if there were any fallen cigarettes, cans and military uniforms, and then placed a An iron lump.
Timers, sensors, and even pure trip ropes are connected to metal boxes one after another. These are simple landmines made of thin iron lunch boxes and crude explosives produced by Xia Rin, to ensure that the Ursus reinforcements can still go in. Get an unexpected surprise.
After finally digging out the tattered corpses of the nobles and hanging them on the gate of the fortress, the shield guards quickly withdrew from the area in a broken posture, and they may not launch new military operations for more than half a year. .
Patriots certainly understand the truth of how much appetite and how much food they eat, but before he didn't have a solid base at all. Continue to raid mines for supplies and recruits.
But now, with a stable rear that can gradually expand the absorption of infected people, there is no need to use cruel fire to test those unprepared recruits, and the wounded in the team also need treatment and recuperation.
The infected and shield guards carrying large and small bags didn't go far, and the armored convoy of reinforcements had already appeared on the horizon. Facing the fortress that had obviously been broken and the infected who were retreating victoriously, these noble reinforcements had a tacit understanding Watching them off instead of rushing to hunt them down.
To be honest, if they catch up at this time, the infected will have to pay a heavy price. The previous battle has exhausted their energy and physical strength, and they are all supported by willpower.
If they are raided at the moment when they are packing up and going home, it will be difficult for them to muster up their strength to fight. They will be exhausted again and again, but the noble reinforcements also have their own ideas. It is undoubtedly difficult to hunt down the infected now. It's not to please, whoever is the first to rush into the fortress is the greatest military merit - the exclusive credit for regaining the lost ground.
In the eyes of the noble officers, the infected are like rats in the ground, kill this batch, and the next batch will emerge, and rush into a mobile fortress, seize it and take advantage of the opportunity to take the credit for recovery Not many, especially in the scene where they were beaten to the point where their heads were dented by the elusive patriots, this battle achievement would definitely satisfy the superiors.
"A group of trash" Ivan glanced at the noble reinforcements rushing into the fort. Originally, their shield guards were afraid that the Ursus army would chase after them when they arrived. So these infected rebels at least Half of them died on this ice field, but they didn't expect them to even look this way, and instead competed for the order of who advanced into the city.
"Drip!" Ivan pressed the remote control in his hand. As for Boss Xia's question of unreliability, he didn't care. It was just a surprise gift box. It was a surprise if it could be blown up. It can only be said that it left a deep impression on them.
"Don't release the landmines, save them, those wastes are not worthy of being wasted." Ivan told the engineers who were planting landmines on the road that could pass the armored convoy to stop. These things are not easy, and those wastes will not come after them , Putting it down now is pure waste.
"However, this fortress can't be dragged away or repaired, which means that this road is now safe." Even if Ursus re-garrisoned troops and repaired the fort, it would be useless. The biggest feature of the mobile fortress is that it can be moved. , can patrol along the road, just like an armored train, so that the guerrilla leader can make three laps.
But now it has become a lying nest and half of the road is blocked there, making it difficult for the heavy armored units of Ursus to get through, which means that the infected on this road can go back and forth happily, as long as they are not stupid enough to abandon Just go under the fortress.
However, after all, this is only a small mobile fortress, not the few large mobile fortresses deployed by Ursus. It's just delaying their mopping up.
"Something is wrong, something is wrong~" The generals of the Fourth Army looked at the photos and reports submitted by the people below, and felt that they were living in a nightmare. What they thought at first was to attack a mob led by a group of rebels with an elite regular army , They may have some military equipment, such as military crossbows, staffs, and even one or two old-fashioned assault ships, all within the expected range of the staff.
After all, there are rebels like shield guards inside. When they resisted demons in the ice desert, if they had any secret arsenal, it is normal to keep some equipment, but most of the infected should be exiled civilians , The slaves who escaped from the mine, even if the retired veterans who were infected for some reason were added, there would not be enough equipment and supplies.
As a result, what was photographed was the wreckage of burning vehicles, the size and shape of which were different from any civilian or military vehicles in Ursus, and most importantly, some of the wrecked wrecks also showed that some of them were newly built.
Not to mention the traces of melting on the fortress, the opinions of the staff and scholars are similar, either the opponent has an established war magician group that can release strategic spells, or the opponent has the technology and physical objects of the origin stone light cannon similar to the Great Flame , and miniaturized them and equipped them on vehicle units.
No matter which one it is, it should not appear in the estimation of a mob of infected people before the war. It feels like you are clearly going to suppress bandits, and you are indeed destroying bandits at the beginning. All you encountered were mobs with pitchforks and kitchen knives.
But when you are fighting, you find that the opponent is holding a mass-produced rifle, and you have a strong premonition that if you continue this way, sooner or later, the opponent will pull out a tank, artillery, and Wuzhi to respond. The feeling of coming from a complete mechanized synthesis group.
"It must be those Yan people and Victorians who are playing tricks! I knew that those guys couldn't believe it." One pretended to call for calm, and the other pretended to express concern. As a result, the infected person had the suspected Victoria-made vehicle and What's up with steam armor?What is it that seems to be a big flame cannon in their hands?
It can't be the garbage they picked up on the ice desert, and then go back and repair it with a small hammer, right?
If Ursus wants to expand to warmer areas, it will either have to go to the cemetery of the Kazdel Empire, or it can only fight against Victoria, and finally it will fight against Yan, and choose one of the three—Latland, Iberia, and Colombia are really unbeatable Well, it's easy to say in the military, the key is that they are afraid that they will take out some strange big treasures, especially Rutland.
To be honest, if this kind of large-scale suppression of bandits occurs in these countries, ask yourself, if the general thinks that the emperor will subsidize some "Ursus arms of unknown origin" to their resistance forces, it must be the vodka drink the day before Too much, overslept.
So head humming at the thought of your enemies changing from unarmed mobs to semi-regulars armed with "flame munitions of unknown origin" and "mysteriously missing Victorian armor".
The nobles were persuaded by the Duke to fight this battle, not because of the current scene. It was originally just because the emperor closed the mines on a large scale, and the infected people showed that they might have the ability to break through the strong city.
Because it is impossible for the infected to travel thousands of miles to fight Saint Jun Castle, but they must find trouble with these northern nobles. Therefore, the suffocation plan launched to prevent war, and this plan seems to be a waste of money, is actually profitable.
Whether it is to plunder the property of those infected, or to squeeze and plunder by relocating towns, it is beneficial, not to mention that these towns are moved to the south, which is tantamount to turning part of the people in the emperor's hands into their own. of the people.
In addition, it can also prevent the infected from being the first to attack their cities after they grow up, and looting the mines, factories and towns under their control. It can be said that there is no harm to the nobles and warlords. Naturally, they have shown considerable The taste of sincere cooperation, and there is no shirk in matters such as stationing personnel and using fortresses.
If I have to make an analogy, it seems that when the river is being harnessed, most of the nobles and bureaucrats can actively participate, but when it comes to disaster relief, they are hanging high, because the former means a huge amount of project funds. Use this excuse to make money, and the latter has to work out of his own pocket-unless the court allocates funds, that is a good job.
If it is used here in Ursus, the imperial court will not allocate funds. The emperor would like them to get rid of the infected people, and then come out to play the role of little daddy and take this power as his own.
But now, it is clear that the plan of "ruling the river" is in vain, because the infected people can really break through the fortress, the nobles began to consider two things, the first thing is that if the infected people can break through the fortress, it means They can also literally break through their own cities and castles, and hang themselves on street lamps.
The second thing is that if a large number of troops are spent on the snowy field, your defense will become worse. If infected people enter the south, prepare to do a big one...
Even if nothing like this happened, the increased firepower of the infected would mean increased losses of soldiers and armed forces on the ice sheet. What is the difference between nobles and warlords without soldiers and fat sheep.
Therefore, the nobles naturally used high-sounding reasons such as "for the sake of the overall situation", "we can't give Victoria and Dayan more opportunities to carry out conspiracy", "we are the northern barrier of Ursus, so small losses are too big to take". ..... work without effort.
Moreover, the wealthy infected settlements and civilian settlements close to the south have almost wiped out their oil and water, and they don't have much motivation to implement the next stage of strategy, even if the old black snake convinces them that they can continue to get benefits in this way. will move.
As for Old Black Snake, although he was amazed by the Patriots' offensive ability, he wasn't touched too much. Many people didn't understand what his purpose was. To put it simply, his purpose was to fight a war. It doesn't matter who you hit.
If the plan goes well, and Tallulah has mastered the mob-turned infected, then the next step is to plan the Cherbonog incident near the Great Yan, and then declare war with Longmen, and if the plan doesn't go well, then he has achieved his goal.
Because of the battering of the infected, the black snake will soon spread out through the snake scales little by little. At that time, the pressure from the surrounding countries will follow. Even if the little emperor doesn't want to fight now, but for the sake of To prove that Ursus, the violent bear, still has strength, not just a piece of dying fat, he must start a war like the old emperor.
As the "banker", the old black snake will never lose in this game. The difference is how to win, how much he wins, and whose money he wins, unless he has the ability to turn over the entire gambling table. Patriot, Xia Lin, or Tallulah didn't have the ability to overturn the entire gaming table.
Just like what Lao Xia said, in terms of the productivity of Terra, especially Ursas, the consciousness and education level of the people, it is already the best result to be able to skip the bloody accumulation stage in the early stage of capitalism. I'm afraid I don't even think about it.
In fact, this is indeed the case. Simply relying on the production capacity of the interstellar era around the farm can maintain a falsely good environment without relying on those rich businessmen and factory owners. But if it is expanded to the entire snowfield, and even the entire Ursas —It is necessary to unite the forces of those factory owners and the emerging bourgeoisie.
In any case, whether it is the fierce extermination or the resistance of the infected, the heat of the war is gradually subsiding on the snow field. The aristocratic warlords' pushes and resistances were nothing but a symbolic and ineffective drive against the infected guerrillas near the green zone.
Late spring is about to pass, and summer is approaching step by step. Under the hot sun, the muddy land has dried up again, allowing vehicles and people to pass through. The warm temperature makes the planted moss and other crops green.
Including the sugar beets sown by Xia Lin, the soybeans and corn bred in the greenhouse are also growing quite vigorously. Under the abundant water and fertilizer, any farmer who has done farm work can see that in September there will be a Harvest.
The things that must be done adjacent to the great harvest are the expansion of irrigation canals, the digging of reservoirs, the leveling of the ground, the installation of food and fertilizer processing equipment, etc., and the construction of a large number of classified crop warehouses.
Another piece of good news is that the draft horses and calves that have finally grown to almost one year old can barely enter the stage of labor domestication. The former solves the problem of too few vehicles, so that the surrounding infected people and civilian settlements can rely on these draft horses. The established transportation lines carry out simple commercial activities.
The biggest harvest brought by the coming summer is that Xia Lin's beehives have finally entered the stage of making honey, and the result is that from time to time, a few bear children are stung and crying because they provoke bees.
Chapter 85 Grass worms and grasshoppers
The vast territory of Ursus means that it will take about half a month for the patriots to withdraw from the front line, not to mention the need to gather those red-eyed infected guerrillas. After the battle of the secondary fortress, quite a number of infected guerrillas could hardly be called the original guerrillas.
They follow in the footsteps of the Patriot Shield Guards, and operate with stricter military discipline than other guerrillas and rebels. Although they have not changed from a purely infected rebel force to a protector of the oppressed, they are also heading in this direction A big step forward.
When they returned to the vicinity of the farm, spring was almost over, and there were many large and small settlements of infected people in the empty snow forest and the edge of the cordon, and there were even some settlements of ordinary people. However, they still They maintained considerable vigilance and hostility, and stayed far away from each other.
"Buzzing~" Black bees fluttered among the blooming lavender flowers, making dense roars. There were polymer boxes one after another around the pasture where alfalfa was planted, and swarms of worker bees kept coming and going.
"Bee~?" The patriot stretched out his hand, and a worker bee made a half circle around the iron glove, landed on the palm of his hand and rested for a while, and then flew to a new flower bush.
“It was really nice...”
"There's honey!" The shield guards remained basically calm, but the infected guerrillas who came back with them were not so calm. The food in Beiyuan worked hard and sweated profusely to make ends meet, but when we got to the place, we found that it was a beautiful place full of flowers and greenery.
The farm guards in charge stood beside an SUV-like vehicle and waved to the patriots. These days, the most common thing these farm guards do is catch honey thieves.Those adults can still maintain the most basic sense, just look at it from a distance and smell the sweet fragrance.
Those children don’t care so much, because those who were injured by stealing honey, those who were stung by soldier bees, and those who were caught on the spot by traps placed on the edge of the hive to prevent wild animals from stealing honey, at first they met two children every day. , These days, patrols and security have been strengthened to get better.
"The supply station and the trading station are over there, follow this sign." Looking at the dense crowd behind the Patriots, they knew that they were another group of refugees. The experienced yeti team pointed directly to the sign of the integration movement over there. The supply station or canteen of the banner.
"They will arrange a place for you, rent seeds and tools, and if you need anything, you can buy it at their exchange, whether it is Longmen coins, Ursas silver coins or other countries' currencies. If you don't have any, use Mortgages of labor or output are also possible."
"They are recruiting transporters and liaison officers, and they need talents who are familiar with the terrain of the Usas snow field and various trails"
"Yeah." The patriot nodded. This is not bad. In this way, the infected settlements and guerrillas can be notified in time to avoid the strangulation of Ursus, and they can also be sent supplies to prevent them from turning into thugs.
"Where's Tallulah?" Patriot was a little worried about her, not about her safety, but whether she was another trick of the old black snake.
Theoretically speaking, if Lao Xia whose strength is unknown around the entire farm is not considered, the only ones who can kill her are Patriot and Skadi, and Frost Star is still a little short of growth-of course, this is if all means are used desperately .
In a simple fight, the White Rabbit and Tallulah, who are well equipped, can probably maintain a [-]-[-] win-loss ratio. It's time to start jujitsu.
After all, a fight is not a war, and whoever is thrown to the ground basically loses half.
"Miss Tallulah should be at the school."
"School?" Now it's the patriot's turn to be stunned. Are there any schools in this place?
"Fencing is not only a technique for killing with a sword, it is also a technique for exercising your limb coordination, physical strength and wrist flexibility, and it is also a technique for exercising your will."
A group of bear children honestly stood in the playground holding wooden swords. Originally, Skadi taught swordsmanship, but after the parents repeatedly complained that their children smashed things with wooden sticks, they were replaced by Tallulah. .
Skatti is a standard sword technique used on the battlefield. She pays attention to not staying in one place for more than a second when opening a big contract, otherwise Haisi's poisonous thorns and sharp claws can tear her apart. , the technical requirements are actually very high.
Children who did not learn well ended up either smashing the bottles and cans at home, or throwing a stick out of their hands and hitting their mother on the head, and then they were sent to the sky as astronauts.
In the end, Tallulah couldn't stand it anymore, so she came to teach the standard Ursus noble swordsmanship. Although noble swordsmanship is not impossible to use in battlefield battles, it is more for self-defense, duels and performances, which is relatively more basic and practical. Step by step, with a complete tutorial starting from the basics.
Rather than Skadi's basic way of holding a sword, using force, throwing it on the battlefield, and surviving is a good fighter's way of doing it.Tallulah basically has no prestige in the school, and the children are not afraid of her, because they always feel that the teacher is a bit silly.
Although Skadi is also naive, she is very good at fighting, and she seems to be a different person as soon as she takes up the weapon, which makes the brats terrified.
However, when teaching swordsmanship, Tallulah was much stricter. When she saw something wrong, she just slapped it with a stick. The bear child who was beaten didn't even dare to cry, because their father squatted beside him and stared at him. If you are ashamed at such a time, you will be beaten up when you go back.
"Who is this?" To be honest, Patriot really didn't recognize Tallulah at first glance. I don't know if she finally got the hang of it, or Alina finally started to do business. She was wearing a black and red dress and her hair was naturally curly. Tallulah, whose silver hair was slightly long, looked completely different from the original tomboy in Ursus military uniform or overalls.
