Chapter 38 Permanent Residence
The rumbling of cannon echoed in the sea fog, and the sound was low and muddy. γFengyun Reading Network. "Tian Lai Xiao" said.2
The aviation battleship Novominsk has disappeared into the clouds. Under the influence of the central circle of large 6 black holes, visibility in the Eastern Sea dropped to almost zero, and it was difficult to see the sea water even from the edge of the deck. Moreover, these fogs are interspersed with dangerous and elusive electronic resonant clouds that are indistinguishable to the naked eye, and the navigation department can only rely on the images tracked by Meng Zheng in the Whooping Ghost system for navigation.
The resonant cloud disables the entire space, and the support fleet of the Southern Nakaki government army is also thrown into chaos. They have the new Minsk: although the mercenary ship commanded by Princess Jin Jiangji and the king of the north have turned against each other, for the southern army, both are enemies, and it has become an important task to search for and sink this large aviation warship. However, the Southern Army's search for the enemy did not go well, and they were somewhat disorganized, neither did anyone dare to use radio communications, low visibility interfered with lights and flag signals, and all ships were in a state of arms. Some high-level combat boats lost command and could only wander around the nearby waters waiting for orders; On the way around, it is natural to encounter your own frigate head-on, and there are often false alarms and misfires, and the sound of these indiscriminate artillery shots once again makes the nerves of other ships in the vicinity nervous.
In the chaos and confusion, the Novo-Minsk escaped the encirclement of the Zhongshu fleet, completed the helicopter recovery operation, and rescued the remnants of the 71st Regiment of the Royal Capital Youth Regiment, which was responsible for the defense of the beach. The original ship's crew squeezed their beds into each other to make more room for the wounded soldiers of the Youth Corps.
In Jin Jiangji's cabin, several commanders still had fighting spirit, but they were covered in mud and blood, and they were embarrassed.
ββ¦β¦ The 71 regiment fought everything. We had intended to die with the enemy. The commander reported to Princess Kim, "I was lucky to have survived thanks to the Princess's rescue." Now, it is up to me to report on this southward operation. Our 71st Regiment was originally used as a flank and was responsible for defending the main force of the royal capital. In order to speed up the attack, all units were equipped with tactical wooden men provided by the Central Big 6. But we didn't expect to encounter some kind of strange cloud and fog during the attack, we were unprepared, and all the soldiers who operated the wooden people were killed in an instant, and those wooden people who were out of control also became puppets and killed each other. The main forces of the royal capital suffered heavy losses and were forced to retreat. The commander-in-chief asked us to stay and deal with the out-of-control wooden men to buy time for the large army. At this time, the Zhongshu government army launched a surprise attack from the west, and the main force of the royal capital could only retreat through the eastern front, but it was afraid of being threatened by the enemy's 6th troops and fleet, so let us hold the beach. β
"You're saying that those electronic resonance clouds are weapons made by the Southern Army?" Counselor Park asked.
"I think so."
"That's weird. Although the resonant cloud is specially designed to interfere and sabotage the Hundred Day Ghost system, it is the shape of a flowing fog after all, and it cannot be controlled at all, and the interference to the Southern Army is also very serious. Otherwise, we would not have escaped. Counselor Park analyzed in front of the princess, "Wounded a thousand enemies, and lost eight hundred." β
Jin Jiangji's expression was serious, and in addition to anger, she was also puzzled: Is this self-destruction?
During the First Sino-Japanese War, the loss of control of the Hundred Day Ghost caused countless lands to be contaminated, making it unsuitable for human existence. Therefore, whether it is the royal capital in the north or the Zhongshu government in the south, it is the first area to promote the use of wooden people. People can live in urban bunkers and rely on civilian wooden people for their activities. But now the electronic resonance cloud that spreads across the battlefield will kill these ordinary people who rely on the Wooden People, turning the Wooden Men into out-of-control puppets. If this is just to delay the attack of the main force of the royal capital, it can barely be understood. But now, the electron resonance cloud has almost engulfed the land, the south and the north, everywhere, all the way. Why is that?
Counselor Park noticed the anger on the princess's little face, so he said, "...... Wang Du's behavior is not surprising, they have long wanted to get rid of the princess and the youth group, and they just used this battle to sacrifice the 71st regiment, killing two birds with one stone. β
"That's true. Our youth regiment as a whole can only spread out on the beach with light weapons in our hands, without heavy firepower and air support, and can only rely on sacrifice to stop the enemy's attack. β
"Well, the loyal 71 regiment fulfilled its duty." Jin Jiangji replied.
"The princess's affirmation is the best reward for our officers and soldiers, and I will pass it on."
"You deserve such a reward. Let's go and rest first. β
Several people withdrew, the hatch closed, leaving only Staff Officer Park and Kim Gang-hee in the room. He walked to the table and faced the map and Princess Jin Jiangji: "The Southern Army is going to break the net, I think, they don't want to become all wooden people." In the current world, I really don't know how many normal humans are left. Before we entered the black hole circle, we heard that the former United States and Osteria had completely fallen, and everyone was restricted from moving, and they could only use civilian wooden people to go out, how ridiculous. As for Europe, I'm afraid it's not optimistic either. β
"Hehe, isn't our country like this for a long time."
"The princess is right. The Hundred Days Ghost is out of control, the land is completely destroyed, and the people endure humiliation and bear the burden, relying on the wooden people for ground activities for a long time. My subordinates have an idea that maybe we have been used as a testing ground for the wooden people, but now that the conditions are ripe, everyone has to become a wooden people. He lowered his voice, "According to the information intercepted by the royal capital, when Meng Struck first arrived in the castle tower, he encountered the out-of-control Hundred Days Ghost ...... for the first time."
Jin Jiangji frowned slightly, she hated anything in the castle tower, but she listened patiently.
"The Hundred Days Ghost said a word to Meng Struck at that time."
"What?" The little princess asked, "Can the Hundred Day Ghost speak?" β
"Yes. Our army has not yet analyzed whether this sentence came from the mouth of a hundred day ghosts, or whether someone in the system said it. When the Whooping Ghost said this, Meng Yan seemed to react greatly. β
"What did the Centurion say?"
"The Hundred Days said," he paused, "'We are all wooden people, and we are not allowed to speak or move. ββ
"Huh?" Kim Gang-hee thought it was strange that she had grown up in Goguryeo and had never heard of this phrase.
"It seems to be a nursery rhyme from the Central Big 6, a kind of short phrase sung by children when they play games."
"We're all wooden?"
"That's true." He went on to say, "Meng Sze was fighting the Owari gumi, helping his brother Lei Yujian escape from the castle tower airport. Unexpectedly, the private destroyer Tenshu Maru, of the Owari Group, suddenly arrived and began shelling the airfield. The bombardment rushed to the sea to interfere with the shelling of the Tenshu Maru. At this time, the Hyakinichi suddenly appeared, and in an instant, the Tenshu Maru was completely melted, and then caught up with Meng. According to the intelligence department of our army, Meng Jie chased the 100-day ghost at the time of the attack and wanted to confirm who was driving. He saw that there was not a man in the cockpit, but a wooden man, and the wooden man said, 'We are all wooden people, we are not allowed to speak or move.' β
"Our military intelligence? Ha, my father sent me to spy on me. β
Counselor Park smiled awkwardly, "The princess is right, the subordinate was one of the minions at the time, and he was in charge of mixing in the castle tower. β
"You can report this to me, you are faithful."
Counselor Park was really more and more obsessed with the murderous smile on Kim Gang-hee's cute face, and he looked at it with fascination for a while before he continued, "Well, to be exact, when my subordinates first saw the princess in the castle tower, they were impressed by the princess's charm and knew that they must not betray the princess. β
"That's a smooth thing you say. Next, what does this sentence mean? β
"Maybe it represents some kind of metaphor, maybe from some point on, the Central 6 has planned to let everyone use the whooping ghost system and live on wooden people, and our country is the earliest test field. Although there is no basis for this assumption, it is the most reasonable speculation. After the war, the Golden Frog King, with the support of the Central 6, began to implement the national wood humanization; On the other hand, the Osaka Treaty guaranteed that the southern Nakaki government would remain the status quo and that the wooden people would not be administered for the time being. I have to admit that in the land contaminated by nuclear and biochemical pollution, the wooden people are very convenient, and the post-war exhibition of the northern royal capital is also stronger than that in the south, and the Golden Frog King wants to complete the reunification in the south, which is probably also the reason. Originally, the South also used wooden people, but it was not mandatory, and they also used these wooden people to develop resonant clouds for counterattack. When they knew that the momentum was not good, and the whole world was going to turn into wooden people, they used the resonant cloud to fight to break the net. In this way, the battle situation makes sense. β
"I've been away for too long...... My father, after the formation of the black hole circle, how did he contact the Central Big 6. Doesn't it mean that the central big 6 has fallen into a black hole circle, which can neither be seen nor heard? β
"All this is exactly the function of the mausoleum. The monsters and technology-level technologies mastered by His Royal Highness the Golden Frog King all came from the mausoleum, which gave him power and ability. That's why so many people want to find the mausoleum, where the power to control the world is buried, and even the mystery of all this. The more Staff Officer Park spoke, the more excited he became, "The Southern Army seems to be jumping over the wall in a hurry, and the ultimate goal is also the mausoleum." β
"The target is the mausoleum, who else."
"Well, before we entered the black hole circle, I heard that the Japanese Liberal People's Army and the government forces in the South Seas were also ready to move, but now the black hole circle has interfered with communications, and the intelligence has been cut off. But rest assured, princess, new information will arrive soon. He smirked, "I have sent the Princess's ship, the Seven Officers of the Transport, to Nippon to bring the Mainichi Shimbun's reporter Chloe to the ship, so that the princess will be able to do her wish, and she will neither leave nor defend the ship to the death." As for the navigation of that plane, the princess doesn't have to worry, the ship is modified with the system of the central big 6, and some of the electromagnetic wave equipment can be changed to the sound wave mode for limited work, which I also thought. Wait for the plane to come back......"
"More than that!"
"Uh, yes." Staff Officer Park returned to the map and returned to the right color, "All the remnants ...... Well, the human forces, I didn't expect it to be this far. Anyway, they all aimed at the mausoleum, and we were the foremost salient. The battle situation has been roughly cleared, and here is the key. He pointed to the map, "According to the report of the friendly forces, the 6th line of communication has been cut off, and the main force of the royal capital has bypassed Seoraksan Mountain and withdrawn to Sokcho to station, presumably waiting for the fleet of the royal capital to retreat from the sea." It was the last four youth commandos that were responsible for the westward defense. If the Northern Sea has not been swallowed by the Resonant Cloud, the support fleet of the Northern Capital will arrive in 3 days. β
"Well, it seems that these three days are the window to decide victory or defeat."
"Oh? The main one is to assault Sokcho from the sea. Staff Officer Park understood, "Go straight with a single knife, directly take the command of the main force of the royal capital, and rescue the last youth regiment; Then wait for the arrival of the royal fleet. It is estimated that they are mainly transporters, and they do not have much strength, as long as New Minsk sits in Sokcho, they will naturally be able to pocket this force. Next ......"
"Prepare the carrier-based aircraft force."
"Understood."
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door outside the cabin: "Urgent report. β
"Come in and breathe. What it looks like. Counselor Park scolded.
"Report," the sailors entered, "the VIP transport plane has returned." β
"Did you get it?"
"Miss Chloe has boarded the ship, but Miss Hindy is missing."
"Oh? The Queen of Arms is missing. β
"Yes, and in addition, there is important news." The sailors were out of breath, "The Japanese State and the Japanese State Liberal People's Army suddenly launched a coup d'Γ©tat, and many government forces in Nanyang responded, and the situation has gotten out of control. β
The report was not too unexpected by Counselor Park, but Princess Kim Jiang Ji had a strange and bad premonition. This indescribable feeling is the same as that of the castle tower: when the world is in chaos, the situation is out of control, and everything needs to be destroyed and reborn, that is when the Hundred Days Oni comes.
It's just that this time it's a complete destruction.
