Chapter 229: Shelling
In the eyes of ordinary people, the national border is always the most heavily defended place.
But in fact, when Luo Songxi crossed the national border, except for a few crooked boundary stones, only a mixture of metal and masonry was seen.
In recent years, there have been frequent local conflicts between the Confederation and the Empire, the most important of which are mutual ...... Shelling.
For example, when a Union soldier gets up and finds that a tree in the territory has fallen, he suspects that he was attacked by the Empire last night. So he set up a loudspeaker and shouted to the Empire, demanding that the Empire stop provoking, otherwise the Federation will defend every grass and tree in its territory to the death.
The Empire also raised a loudspeaker to shout back, demanding that the Federation stop the "noise war" and remove the loudspeakers, otherwise the Empire will take military action.
Shouting and shouting, he couldn't suppress the fire, so he dragged the elemental cannon out of a confrontation.
Or the Commonwealth's cooking squad used a pressure cooker to make soup and drink, and the fire was a little fiercer and the high-ranking officers on the Imperial front line with strong mental strength keenly caught the explosion, thinking that the Federation had taken the lead in firing the artillery, and asked the soldiers to resolutely return fire.
So he dragged the elemental cannon out again.
Or...... It's just that the weather is bad today, so everyone will directly drag the elemental cannon out of a confrontation.
But the elemental cannon on Tia's face was, in the words of the inventor of explosives77, a little bigger...... Of course, it is still a little more lethal than firecrackers, but the maximum range will not exceed two thousand meters.
As a result, the two sides tacitly agreed to remove all personnel and facilities at a distance of 1,000 meters on each side of the national border.
No matter how frequent the shelling of each other is, they will not be able to hit each other, and they will never cause any casualties or damage anything.
So everyone shelled back and forth, and it seemed that the situation was very tense, but the soldiers were still quite happy.
After all, firecrackers are only released in the hometown during the New Year, and they can be released every day here.
There is no ban on burning.
It's called: As long as you hit the right shot, New Year's Eve will be celebrated every day!
But today it seems to be different.
The soldiers in charge of the federal guard, on the watchtower in the distance, saw a person flying from the direction of the empire, and he was about to cross the border!
How many years have we not allowed the Imperials to set foot on our territory, and today how dare anyone cross the border?
The soldier immediately reported angrily to the major next to him.
The major decisively ordered: shell immediately!
The order was quickly conveyed, and the gunners had already learned how to make a perfect shelling, and they had already completed the adjustment of the firing angle before Luo Songxi crossed the border.
"Open fire!" roared the deputy captain of the artillery brigade, who was in charge of directing the battle, with a figure as burly as an iron tower and a voice as loud as a bell.
So Luo Songxi, who was still immersed in the excitement of returning to the federation just now, suddenly saw that it was not the wine that greeted him, but the ...... The roar of dozens of elemental cannons!
A large basin-sized fireball rushed towards him with great might, and Luo Songxi knew that the fireball still contained a flame explosion array that would explode when shocked, and the flame explosion array was still wrapped in dense iron filings and nails......
Luo Songxi's scalp was numb for a while, who said that this thing was just a larger firecracker, and it would still be fatal if it was hit directly on the body......
"77, can your psychic magic stop these cannonballs?" he quickly asked.
"The man who fired the cannon was at least a kilometer away from us...... They're just novices,...... 77 said a little hesitantly, "and even if I fly over and tickle them, the shells they send won't fly back." By the way, what about your Isolator necklace?"
It's really a pot that can't be opened.
"Didn't you propose earlier to test the defensive limit of the Isolator's necklace and the time it would take to reform the shield?" Luo Songxi asked angrily.
"Oh," 77 said smirkedly, "then you can hide." ”
Fortunately, Luo Songxi had a solid foundation and ingenious body skills, he thought about it in the air for a moment, and then thought of a way to deal with it, and was trying to avoid the oncoming cannonballs with a fierce operation......
I didn't expect to have a faster reaction than him......
The soldiers in the Imperial fortifications, as soon as they heard the sound of the Federation's cannons, shouted excitedly one by one:
"The Federation fired, fire back, fire back!"
Then, with the same speed at which practice makes perfect, and ingenuity produces refinement, the elemental cannon was set up.
A moment later, behind Luo Songxi's ass, the artillery fired in unison.
Before Luo Songxi could dodge the shells in front, the larger fireball group behind him had already rushed after him.
It was already difficult to dodge the shells in one direction alone, but there was an even bigger wave in the other direction.
Seeing that Luo Songxi is about to bloom before and after......
It's two blossoms again, it's really two blossoms everywhere in the world.
Let's let go of the old artists who are both virtuous and artistic......
Well, it's wrong, it's a little intelligence agent who has worked so hard to rush back to the Federation.
said that it was too late, and at the moment when the shells were staggered, Luo Songxi's body was splashed with sparks. With the rumbling sound of the Flame Explosion Array, he fell into the dust from the air.
And then I never got up again.
......
......
The shelling lasted for a full hour before it gradually stopped.
When the smoke cleared, Luo Songxi curled up in a lump of metal and garbage near the border, and remained motionless.
"Uh-huh," 77 cleared her throat, as if she too would choke on the smoke.
"Okay, they're gone, you're getting better. ”
"Wait a little longer," Luo Songxi said a little weakly, "let the 'finish of the book' in this chapter be brushed for a while......
Sure enough, it was only a short break, and ten minutes later, the artillery fire was flying again.
It may have just been that the barrels of the first cannons on the front line were overheated and needed to be cooled, and the soldiers needed time to push the spare cannons up from behind.
After more than an hour of intense fighting, the sound of the artillery finally died down again.
"It's over this time, let's get up. 77 urged.
"Wait a minute," Luo Songxi shrank back sadly, "There aren't many votes for everyone......
Sure enough, ten minutes later, the soldiers of the Federation and the Empire each launched a new batch of cannons......
......
......
It was not until after the fourth round of shelling that no artillery was fired for 20 minutes.
Luo Songxi struggled to pull away the various broken walls and debris on his body and climbed up from the dirt pit.
The soldiers on the federal watchtower excitedly shouted: "That man is up again!"
The major next to him asked the tower-like deputy captain of the artillery brigade, "Have the first artillery shelled been cooled down?"
"Report to sir, it's all cooled down. The tower-like vice-captain replied in a loud voice.
"Keep firing!" the major ordered.
"Yes, keep ......"
The tower-like vice-captain suddenly felt that the figure that hit the border was a little familiar.
He snatched the binoculars from the soldier's hand and took a closer look at the figure.
He shouted at the major, and finally shouted the words, which Luo Songxi had already screamed countless times but no one could hear:
"Captain, don't fire, your own people!"
