Chapter 1487: Shaken
The so-called minor problem is that a new kind of weird creature has appeared in the army of weird creatures.
It was a huge white worm, more than twenty meters long and nearly one meter thick. At the end of the body, there are huge mouthparts that can be opened almost 180 degrees.
These strange worms slowly followed the army, stopping every now and then to swallow the many strange creatures next to them in one gulp.
Immediately after that, the weird worm will straighten up, and an "egg" wrapped in multiple weird creatures will squirt out of its mouth. The "egg" slashed through the air in an arc and fell next to the soldiers in the defensive line, and a small part fell into the interior of the station.
The "egg" shatters quickly after falling, and out of it emerges a strange creature that has been swallowed by a strange worm.
While most of the strange creatures were killed by the soldiers next to them before they could recover from their vertigo, a small number still found their way and caused some casualties.
The line of defense became a little disorganized.
Goering, the commander of the Gray Parrot Reinforcement Regiment, had a chilled expression after seeing it, and turned his head to the gunner and shouted: "Give up the rest of the targets for the time being, and let me use armor-piercing shells to set fire to those big bugs, all of them will be destroyed, and no one will be left." โ
"Yes!"
The artillerymen were ordered to quickly reload the shells to attack, and armor-piercing shells flew out of the barrels and flew densely towards the strange worms.
"Bang bang bang!"
The Strange Worm twisted its body to dodge a few shells at first, but was unable to dodge them all, and eventually the shells hit, and the Strange Worm was cut into several pieces before dying.
The regimental commander Goering turned his head to look at the depths of the garrison again, and could hear screams from time to time, which were the destruction of strange creatures flying into the station.
He took a deep breath and issued a new order: "The third brigade, temporarily withdraw from the combat sequence, is responsible for the comprehensive cleaning of the station!"
"Yes. โ
A group of soldiers, rushing towards the station.
More orders came from Goering's mouth.
"Sixth Brigade, supporting the Eighth Defensive Line......"
"Yes. โ
"The second reserve team is withdrawn and repaired, and the seventh brigade is on top ......"
"Yes. โ
"Captain, the ten latest demonic cannons that Sarin transported half a month ago are useless in the warehouse, right? Pull them out for me immediately, place them on the front main line of defense, and blow them ......up."
"Yes. โ
โ......โ
โ......โ
......
Under the constant command of the regimental commander Goering, in the battle of many soldiers, the new wave of offensive of the army of strange creatures was repulsed, and the defense line returned to a rare quiet.
Bob, Philip, Frank, and the rest of the crew began to help again, and after a long day's work, they gathered in one place to rest and eat for a whileโafter all, they were volunteering to help, and it was impossible for them to work hungry.
The food eaten is a small green square cake called the No. 3 ration, which is said to taste much better than the No. 1 and No. 2 rations, and it is also said to have a beef-like taste when chewed in the mouth for a long time - of course, it is said that it is only said.
As the locomotive captain, Bob received a large box of No. 3 rations from a captain of the Grey Parrot Reinforcement Regiment and handed them to each crew.
When it was handed to Philip, Bob thought of something and asked, "I heard that when you were transporting the wounded before, you and Frank ran into that kind of flying egg, are you okay?"
"It's fine. Philip took the small square cake, shook his head, and said nothing.
Bob didn't ask, but just sighed: "It's okay, after all, you still have a son, don't you, you have to live well." Just like me, I have a wife who is more than ten years younger than me, and a newborn daughter, so no matter what, I have to go back alive. โ
Turning his head, Bob handed the small cake to Frank: "Frank, are you okay, you didn't get hurt, right?"
Frank didn't answer the question, took the little cake, just took a vicious bite, and then took another vicious bite, and swallowed it in his mouth in a few clicks, before he looked at Bob and said with a blank face, "Everyone will die." โ
"Huh?" Bob paused, then reacted, "You...... Crazy?"
"It's okay to be crazy. Bob said, "Whether it's crazy or not, at least I'm not afraid." Seriously, this battle will be the same for a while, and after a while, maybe I won't be able to stand it and go crazy. But I still have a wife and a daughter, I'm crazy, what are they going to do?"
With a long sigh, Bob shook his head, saw that there were extra small cakes, picked up another one and handed it to Frank: "You seem to be hungry, can you eat more?"
Frank was not polite, and swallowed two or three more mouthfuls into his mouth, and swallowed hard with a "coo".
After eating, he wiped his mouth, and repeated earnestly to Bob as if admonishing: "Everyone will die." โ
Bob: "......" has a weird expression.
"Whoa!"
A few moments after Frank finished speaking, a sharp whistle sounded, followed by shouting.
"The enemy is preparing for a second wave of the offensive, all fighters are ready, all auxiliaries are withdrawing from the front...... Repeat, the enemy is preparing a second wave of the offensive......"
Bob, Philip, Frank and other crew members, hearing the sound, quickly stood up from the resting place, looked outside the defense line, and saw that a few hundred meters away, dense strange creatures had indeed gathered again.
They noticed that in addition to the usual weird creatures, this time there was a new large weird creature. The other party is more than three meters tall and five meters long, like an elephant, but it does not have a long nose or big ears, and some have a sturdy shell with a dark gray body.
These strange carapaces moved slowly, and although they were far away, many people on the defensive line felt the pressure from the other sideโthe pressure from the volume.
The regimental commander Goering had apparently also noticed the existence of the strange carapace, and while urging Bob and the other auxiliaries to leave, he looked at the gunner, stretched out three fingers and shook it. The meaning is simple: fire three shells and test it.
The gunner received the order and immediately loaded the shells and prepared.
"Bang bang bang!"
In a few moments, the three demonic cannons on the defensive line roared almost simultaneously, and three armor-piercing shells slid out of the barrels and flew towards the strange carapace. One of them was over-reserved and landed behind the side of the strange crustacean, while the other two hit the head and back, respectively.
An amazing scene appeared, and I saw that the strange carapace was hit and shook slightly, and the two cannonballs seemed to hit the smooth mirror surface, and after sliding along the surface of the strange carapace for a certain distance, they actually broke away and flew out.
Flew hundreds of meters and fell again, one plunging into the soil, and the other piercing the body of a bald giant rat with residual force.
Regiment Commander Goering's eyes narrowed.
Something that worries him has happened - just like the limited power of ordinary weapons and steel fists, the demonic cannons have encountered an existence that cannot be easily killed.
Goering's eyes narrowed into a slit, and he could see one after another strange carapace in the army of strange creatures, running to the front, protecting the rest of the strange creatures like shield soldiers, covering the advance, and approaching the defensive line.
At this moment, not only some of the people on the defense line, but almost everyone felt the huge pressure, and couldn't help but wonder if they could stop the attack of the army of strange creatures this time.
Goering stared at the army of strange creatures for three seconds, and the next moment, as if he had made a decision, he turned his head sharply and shouted to the side: "Messenger, come here, contact me!"
