Chapter 113: Integration of Military and Civilian
Wu Yun stood up, he planned to discuss with Philos, he had to ask the soldiers above to stop shooting, otherwise there was no way to implement his idea.
At this moment, a petite body flashed directly from his side. Needless to say, it's the little Lori who can't help but do it when she sees a monster. Wu Yun secretly screamed badly, but he didn't dare to follow, so he could only look at her back anxiously. At this time, the fierce gunfire above suddenly stopped, and Wu Yun had no scruples at this time, and rushed out of the cave with her.
Blacksteel commanded the soldiers on the city wall to pour bullets at the giant ants, and he could see clearly from above, several giant ants had rushed through the broken hole below, but now he could not do anything about it. He could only continue to shoot the giant ants that were still in sight.
He soon noticed a strange phenomenon, and he didn't know when it began, and the giant ants began to deliberately avoid the hole. It's as if there's something scary in there. They both attacked the roots of the walls on both sides. For a moment, a semicircular clearing formed near the entrance of the cave. It stands out in the black giant ant colony.
Just when Black Steel was puzzled, a little girl in a pink dress suddenly appeared in the clearing!
"Stop shooting!" He didn't think much about it, and immediately waved his arms and shouted.
However, his move was also a bit redundant, and the soldiers on the walls had already noticed the situation, so they stopped shooting almost at the same time as Wendy rushed out.
The little girl's recklessness caused her to fall into the encirclement of dozens of steely ants at once, but the girl had no fear, and she rushed straight towards the colony with a stick in one hand.
Wendy didn't have bundles of mosquito coils on her body, but she was very interested in Aya's bracelets, and she wore several on each arm. Coupled with the fact that she had been surrounded by mosquito coils before, she was like a moving incense burner for those giant ants.
In the face of such a crazy move by her, many people in the city turned their heads and couldn't bear to look at it. Many soldiers had already begun to raise their guns to avenge her.
The soldiers of the city saw the most amazing scene, she was like a tiger slaughtering into a flock of sheep, and the fierce giant ants had no power to resist at all. Wherever the club-like weapon in her hand went, the giant ants were either pierced or smashed, and there was no enemy at all. After a few minutes, there wasn't a single surviving ant below. And the giant ants who came later were obviously frightened by her combat power, and they all stood far away on the periphery, as if they were hesitating about something.
Could it be that such a human-ant war was so easily resolved by a little Lori? The soldiers looked at each other, and none of them believed that this could be true. But the scene that happened in front of them couldn't help but make them believe. After a moment of consternation, the city erupted in shouts of victory.
It's a good job~ Firos, who was standing at the head of the city, said secretly in his heart, he noticed that the gunfire stopped and immediately came to the soldiers. Wendy's heroic deeds were naturally also seen by him. Especially when he saw the giant ant armor in front of Wendy disintegrate, he realized that all this should be the credit of mosquito coils. It seems that the big picture of this long human-ant war has been decided.
When Wu Yun came out, Wendy was struggling to kill the enemy, no one noticed him, and seeing her abusing the giant ants with various stick tricks, his heart finally relaxed, since the little Lori was not in danger, he took advantage of this to start implementing his plan.
He untied the mosquito coil in his hand and slowly threw it from the side of the hole. According to his idea, as long as he scattered all the way along the city wall, there was no possibility for the armored giant ants to attack. Now the only thing to consider is whether the number of mosquito coils is enough. He quickly finished his hand. A bundle of mosquito coils can be spread for about five or six meters. In this case, the mosquito coils I brought with me are enough. He looked behind him, and Wendy's side had already taken care of it.
Wendy was clearly impressed by the praise and cheers of the soldiers above. She jumped in front of Wu Yun, and when she saw the mosquito coils scattered on the ground, she immediately understood what the other party meant. She was clearly supportive of that approach. Pulling Wu Yun and walking towards the cave. The two soon came to the crowd of civilians waiting in the city.
"Tell them~ There are 200g per person who goes with me to arrange mosquito coils~" Wendy learned Wu Yun's technique quickly, and she directly arranged it to Aya. In fact, her voice was so loud that even if she didn't have to speak, most of the people in the team could already hear it clearly. People were boiling.
In the previous purchase of mosquito coils, most of them had seen Wendy's true nature as a local tyrant who spent money like money, and it was naturally easy to see that the real buyer was not Wu Yun, but this little girl with a cash box. Maybe it's because she's young and ignorant, she's completely different from ordinary employers, and the 20g that should have been paid after delivering mosquito coils has already been sent to them when they set off, so no one has a trace of doubt when they hear her words now. But there are still many people who have doubts about this task.
"Aren't there giant ants outside the city?"
"Didn't you hear the cheers of the city?"
"yes, it's like cheering victory."
"How long do you have to stay outside, and what if you're in danger?"
"200g is not a small amount."
"It's a lot of money, but it's not worth it."
"The job is very simple, just sprinkle the mosquito coils evenly under the city walls." Seeing that many civilians were still full of doubts, Wu Yun had to step forward and say a few words. "And she and I will go with you."
He directly made the decision for Wendy next to him, and he was sure that little Lori would not refuse such an adventurous thing. Sure enough, Wendy didn't say anything against it. However, people still did not seem to react much, and the situation suddenly reached an impasse.
"I'm going." A woman's voice was unusually loud in the low voices of the people. Wu Yun saw that it was Aya who had been working in obscurity. The girl came to Wu Yun and Wendy, she glanced at Wu Yun, and then slowly turned around. She glanced at the ranks of civilians. People looked at her with curiosity.
"A lot of us have been living in McGee for a long time." She said in a calm tone, "And now the monsters out there are going to break through the walls and destroy our home. ”
"They're not like us." Aya gestured with her hand to the two people behind her, and their eyes fell on Wu Yun and Wendy. Both of them subconsciously took a step back, "They don't actually have to be so troublesome at all, the rich have a way to avoid this disaster." ”
The civilians glanced at each other, that's right, rich people like Wendy with such financial resources don't have to worry about this problem at all, the ones who reacted quickly would have fled a long time ago, and even if they didn't escape, they had their own bodyguard team, and no matter how bad they were, they could find a place in the army at a high price. Once the town is breached, it will definitely be the civilians who are unlucky. In troubled times, this truth is too simple.
"They're all willing to protect the town we live on." There was a hint of crying in Aya's tone. "How can those of us who really depend on the town for their survival be able to watch like this?"
As soon as she said this, not only the civilians fell silent, but the soldiers around them also looked at Wu Yun and Wendy with grateful eyes. They knew much more about the battle situation than the civilians, and naturally admired the two of them for disregarding their own safety.
"I'm going to participate." A middle-aged man stepped out of the crowd.
"I also participated, and I have two children at home." A slightly older woman also stepped forward. There was a look of determination on her weather-beaten face. "McGee must not be breached!"
One by one, people stood up, and under Aya's heartfelt persuasion, everyone realized the significance of this work. This is no longer a 200g work problem, but a feat related to one's own survival and the safety of one's family.
"Don't worry, I'll protect you." A soldier stepped out of the city's garrison. He waved his gun and shouted at the stunned civilians.
"What's wrong with Crow? Is he going out to find death? A soldier asked, puzzled.
"I heard that he has a girlfriend who is a civilian." The man who had good deeds replied in a low voice,
"That's right. I mean, a person who usually looks timid. The soldiers began to talk about it.
"Without an order, you dare to leave the team without permission?" A man in non-commissioned officer attire immediately stood up and asked, "Are you going to be a deserter?" ”
"I'm sorry, company commander~ She's right, I think what she said makes sense." The soldier, named Crow, was completely undaunted. "And I'm pretty sure there's nothing wrong with that brave man's support."
As he spoke, his finger pointed to this side, and the soldiers' eyes immediately looked to Wu Yun's side.
Brave? Wu Yun stared blankly at the soldier's finger pointing at him. No way? When did you become a brave man? He was just about to explain, and found that he would be mistaken, the eyes of the soldiers fell on Wendy in unison, although they were the garrison in the city, but the news from the city soon spread, it is said that someone single-handedly overthrew the giant ant colony under the city, and the soldiers under the city will naturally be no stranger to Wendy's conspicuous appearance and appearance, after all, they have all seen Wendy kill the giant ant that broke into the city, and the soldiers who realized this situation now look at Wendy's eyes completely like a star-chaser.
"That's it, the first team to the fourth team in the company, defend in place." After the company commander saw Wendy, he suddenly seemed to be a different person, and arranged in an extremely fast voice, "Team five to team eight, work with me to protect civilians." ”
"Company commander, our mission... A soldier behind him whispered, he glared fiercely, and the man hurriedly retreated.
"Our mission is to monitor the movement of the residents of the city." The company commander obviously had a countermeasure, "What's wrong with me dividing people to spy on them now?" ”
Now the civilians have no worries at all, and these soldiers, who usually don't take them seriously at all, actually come to protect themselves, which they haven't completely thought about.
Surrounded by soldiers, the civilians slowly followed Wu Yun and Wendy into the hole destroyed by the giant ants...
