The car stopped in front of a building. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

This town is completely different from the city of Nice. Although Lu Wu knew that the buildings here were all newly built, there was naturally an indescribable sense of dilapidation in them at that time. Not to mention anything else, it was only here that Lu Wu saw the essence of the world's building materials—a gray, concrete-like material in color, dotted with some spherical things that didn't know the purpose. And if you look closely, you can see that there are a lot of bubbles in these solidified building materials, just like bread - but not as exaggerated as bread. In the city, whether it is the city of Nice or the city of Gasher, these things are not visible. This may be because after the building is built, it needs to be retouched and maintained, sanded and polished, etc., to cover up these unsightly things.

Perhaps it is because all the buildings in the town have not undergone the final beautification steps that it looks dilapidated and unsightly. Moreover, the building in front of Lu Wu was even more - he did not look old and dilapidated, but in fact it was also dilapidated.

Han was the first to jump out of the car and motioned for the others to follow. Lu Wu was the last to come down.

There is no doubt that a battle broke out here not long ago. Broken door frames and gates, broken window frames and corners, and clumps of blood on the ground, and of course, numerous bullet holes, all show the indications.

Even a layman like Lu Wu could see that the attacker rushed in through the smashed gate in front of him - undisguised simplicity, brutality and blood. Moreover, it can be seen that they have clearly succeeded.

Combined with Lu Wu's contact today, he had already guessed what was going on. Presumably the corpses came from this battle. Of course, if they obediently give up and hand over their companions, then it is estimated that this battle can be avoided. But obviously, the soldiers of this world still have a bit of backbone.

"This is it," Han noticed that Lu Wu was checking the traces of the battle. "Sorry, we lost. They have a lot of exoskeleton armor, we have very little. ”

"What's the reason?" Lu Wu suddenly asked. He knew that this question was stupid, what other reason did he need to kill people in the Land of Chaos? But Lu Wu wanted to ask.

"We stole exoskeleton armor. Han replied. "Yesterday they left the ones they didn't want. They brought those things back, but they didn't expect it...... Last night, they came to the door out of the blue. ”

"Partner, you're thinking too much. In his ears, the master seemed to sigh slightly. "The hardest thing in the world is to make money, and the best thing to find is a reason. ”

The room had been cleaned up a bit, but you could guess what had happened from the broken walls. To be honest, Lu Wu had always felt that the combat power of exoskeleton armor was not very good - whether it was in the magic ring or in front of the destroyer, these hoplites wearing exoskeleton armor seemed to be vulnerable and could be defeated easily. But now I really feel that wearing exoskeleton armor is simply an invincible existence for light infantry with only one gun.

Actually, this is also normal. The status of exoskeleton armor in the world's military equipment is probably similar to that of tanks on the earth - it may be slightly inferior in defense and firepower, but it is obviously more flexible and faster, and it is much more adaptable to the terrain.

There was a big hole in the wall, and it was clear that the invaders were not only fierce but also clever in their attack - they broke the wall directly, and they went back and forth, blocking the resisters there. I guess that's why so many people died. In fact, the number of invaders involved in the battle was not large, but they caused a lot of casualties under the current and rear attacks. It is estimated that all the resisters in the entire house were killed at that time, and the few who could escape were limited.

Lu Wu took a seat at the table, with Ivan and Amber beside him. The reason why Ivan was chosen is because Ivan is a real local (there is a high probability that the red clothes are a fugitive from the side of the Stygian Moon, of course, this stomach just knows it, and there is no need to mention it in person), and he knows more about the situation of the Banshee Gate.

In addition to Han, there were a dozen or so people here, several dressed like Han—but some were completely civilian. Of course, they are wearing spring and summer clothes.

"This ......" Ivan noticed that everyone's expressions were different, which was obviously a conspiracy. And he was more worried about the surveillance - he didn't know the existence of the master, and he didn't know that what Grumas was seeing at this moment was a bunch of meaningless twisted patterns - so he suspected that Grumas might already know that Lu Wu was here.

Of course, since it can't be negotiated, then tearing the face is inevitable. With so much thought, risk, and of course, Belica, they couldn't have handed over the Floating Fortress obediently. Even if Grumas knew about Lu Wu's connection with the remaining local forces in Nice City, what would happen anyway, in the end, conflict was inevitable.

"This is Your Excellency Lu Wu, the new commander of the Sixteenth Legion. Han took the initiative to introduce it to everyone. "After the death of the former commander of the Sixteenth Legion, His Excellency Lu Wu, as the supreme commander of the Legion, made many military exploits and defeated the army of Kecha Goyat many times. His exploits were even recognized by the higher-ups, so he was appointed commander of the legion without the permission of the governor, and was entrusted with the defense of the city of Gashe. ”

Everyone was moved. Being able to skip the Governor's restrictions and be appointed as a Legion Commander directly by the Faction's top brass - although a small legion is insignificant to the upper echelons, this kind of thing is actually very rare. This unusual thing in itself is enough to prove that Lu Wu has outstanding ability and brilliant achievements, so that he can get extra favor.

In addition, he was appointed to the defense of the city of Gashe. The city of Gasha is now only one of the many border fortress strongholds, and its defense seems to be inconspicuous. But that's not the point of this matter, it's the only place where the local army is recognized after the regular army has completely taken over the defense of the Banshee Gate.

That's right, the entire Banshee Gate's local army is in a terrible situation right now. The governor died, the floating fortresses were shot down, the territory was occupied by the enemy, and the regular army took over the defense. They are forgotten, abandoned, thrown aside, and left unattended and, like refugees, have only the most basic food supplies (and are also withheld). It can be said that they are not treated as an army at all, but as a refugee. True, a small part of them were absorbed by the regular army and joined the camp of the regular army, but that was a minority after all. Moreover, the status of the regular army did not allow them to take care of their former colleagues.

In this case, Lu Wu was entrusted with the defense of Gashe City, which was simply the only light in the darkness. The current Lu Wu is in the eyes of everyone, even if he doesn't stand anywhere and has colorful dragons and tigers on his head, at least he belongs to the type of extraordinary qi and looking forward to brilliance.

Only Lu Wu himself knows that this has nothing to do with his personal ability...... Don't look at him as an officer at the moment, but in fact he has never been a soldier, and he doesn't know anything about fighting a war or anything. At most, it's just a double reed performance with the destroyers under Kecha Goat.

After this introduction, everyone showed favor to Lu Wu, even the most reserved among them, they all took the initiative to greet him.

After some pleasantries, the room fell silent again. This time it was Ivan who spoke first. "Ladies and gentlemen, I'm Ivan of the former Third Legion, and you've probably heard of me. Of course, now that the Third Army has been abolished, I have become a staff officer of the Sixteenth Army...... So, let me ask you directly, what are you inviting us to do here?"

Everyone exchanged glances with each other, and finally Yuhan went out to speak.

"We've heard about His Excellency Lu Wu's achievements, so we've admired him for a long time," Han said. "So everyone hopes that His Excellency Lu Wu can replace that bastard Grumas and become the commander of Nice City. ”

"Hah...... This ......" Lu Wu couldn't figure out what this meant. It's not that Lu Wu is against this, because even if you put aside the floating fortress, it is beneficial to accept the defense commission, and you can get a generous subsidy. Coupled with the matter of the Floating Fortress, even just to take revenge on Grumas, the five people of Lu were happy to accept this commission. Anyway, he was sure that Kecha Goyat would not come to fight him, not to mention the defense of the two cities, one hundred and eighty would be fine!

But what is the use of Lu Wu agreeing or disagreeing to this kind of thing? This power is completely out of his hands!

The "commission" on the side of Lugokasha was given by the regular army, and the same was true for Grumas. If Lu Wu wants to replace Grumas, he needs to get an order from the regular army. Lu Wu didn't feel that he had this ability or this face. In fact, it is not clear why he was entrusted with the defense of the city of Gashe, and it can only be guessed that it was done casually.

He looked around at the people around him, and the words he was about to say disappeared from his lips. Because he noticed the looks of everyone, including Ivan.

"Give it, you may not understand......" Ivan understood that Lu Wu really didn't know about this matter, "What does it mean to entrust defense...... In fact, it is all self-determination. You are entrusted with the responsibility of organizing the defense, resisting the enemy, but also counter-offensive. This is normal, and you are free to attack Kecha Goyat and occupy any enemy territory...... Or whatever. Of course, for example, you can do things like assisting friendly forces and clearing up rebels, without the permission of others. In short, as long as you don't have anything to do with the regular army, you can do whatever you want. ”

"What do you mean......" Lu Wu slowly understood. It wasn't as simple as he thought.

"The only thing you need to make sure is that the city of Gasha doesn't fall into the hands of the enemy. If that happens, you're done. Ivan explained in detail. "Even if you survive, it's a dead end. ”

For this, Lu Wu is completely acceptable. There are many such things on the earth, and there are practices in ancient and modern times to execute the generals of the defeated army. Having said that, although this rule is harsh, if it is not, how can it be Lu Wu's turn to be responsible?

"This means that you can attack Grumas and take the city of Nice. If it's up to you, the regular army is on the side...... Won't interfere. Ivan explained. "Of course, in theory. ”

In any case, Grumas was also an aristocrat, with extensive connections and connections. So it's normal to really get some reinforcements and so on.

"However, as long as you can beat Grumas in a short period of time, then no one can do anything. Even if you kill Grumas, all this has nothing to do with the regular army, and it has nothing to do with the interests of the entire camp. Even if it were to be pursued, you could reply with reasons like 'I suspect Grumas was malfeasing'. No one can blame you, because this is the power that comes with you in the first place to entrust defense. In fact, as is customary, if you can do this, then you can directly ask for the city of Nice to be entrusted with the defense. Nine times out of ten, the regular army will push the boat down. ”

Ivan made a gesture to indicate that if he did, the problem of the Floating Fortress would be solved. At that time, even if it is repaired slowly, it will never be possible for the Floating Fortress to fall into the hands of others.

"Your Excellency Lu Wu, this is a great opportunity. Han interjected. "Right now, the defenses of Nice City are very weak. ”

Lu Wu remembered the messy equipment he had seen Grumas before. Judging from Lu Wu's current standards, Grumas's troops are probably the grade of a patchwork unit. Obviously, Grumas's troops were poorly equipped and poorly disciplined. According to the general view of contemporary Chinese on the planet, the combat effectiveness of such an army is not high.
