Chapter 3: The First Arrival in the Otherworld
Three days later, the imperial court built a strong fortress on the outskirts of Chang'an.
The fortress is not very large, and there are only 100 square meters of space inside, but the whole body is made of reinforced concrete, and it is up to three feet thick, which is extremely strong.
Tens of thousands of soldiers were stationed outside the fortress, and more than 20 steam tanks were sent to guard it.
The court suddenly made such a big move, naturally it couldn't hide it from someone with a heart. The development of another world through the Gate of Tianwei is still the top secret news of the Tang Empire, and there are only dozens of people who know the specific inside story.
In the eyes of those who have a heart, this is most likely a scientific research base created by Emperor Shenwu, who is secretly developing a new type of weapon, just like the original steam tank.
At this moment, in front of this fortress, neat footsteps sounded, and five hundred elites lined up, waiting for the review of Emperor Shenwu.
Li Xuan stood on the high platform, his eyes were majestic, and he said in a deep voice: "Soldiers, you are all elite kings of the hundred, so you can stand here." I have a task entrusted to you related to the fortunes of the Tang Dynasty, and you may complete it? ”
"May I die for Your Majesty! I am willing to die for Datang! ”
"Okay, you are all heroes of the Tang Empire, and there is no cowardice! From now on, you will be one of the first to enter the camp! ”
The Tang Empire has realized the regularization of the army, and the troops are named after numbers, and only the heroic troops can be awarded the title by the imperial court.
This battalion of elite troops is the advance force to explore the other world, Li Xuan couldn't help but think of the "first battalion", the first battalion of troops to log in to the other world, and the name of "first battalion" is worthy of its name.
"Li Ling! Zhao Xin! Li Xuan gave an order, and immediately two young men in military uniforms walked out.
They were the first group to follow Li Xuan when Li Xuan first organized and trained two battalions of the New Army to seize power, and they were loyal, and both of them had learned internal boxing and had first-class physical fitness.
"Li Ling, see Your Majesty!"
"Zhao Xin, see Your Majesty!"
Li Xuan nodded and shouted, "Li Ling, from today onwards, you will be the captain of the first camp. Zhao Xin, you are the deputy lieutenant. ”
"Weichen takes the order!"
Li Ling and Zhao Xin are both heroes of Conglong, confidants of Emperor Shenwu, viscounts of the Tang Empire, and Li Ling is a royal clansman.
To be the captain of the first battalion in their capacity is undoubtedly a few levels of demotion, but they do not feel aggrieved at all.
Because the two of them also know the inside story.
After everything was ready, the elite of the first camp divided into two columns and lined up into the fortress.
Just this morning, the researchers have completed the preliminary test, the gravity and oxygen content on the opposite side of the Tianwei Gate are about the same as those in the Datang world, and the cats and dogs sent over are still alive and kicking after staying on the opposite side for an hour, meeting the prerequisites for the development of another world.
"Is this the legendary Nantianmen?" Li Ling looked at the portal in front of him, this door was composed of golden light, it was so dazzling, exuding an indescribable majesty, which made people feel awe from the bottom of their bones.
Not only the two captains Li Ling and Zhao Xin, but the other soldiers were even more shocked, but they were all the most elite soldiers of the Tang Empire, and the commander did not order to stop advancing, even if there was a sea of swords and fires in front of them, they would not stop.
"Dada, Dada......"
With the sound of neat footsteps, the elite of the five hundred Xiandeng Battalion all passed through the Gate of Tianwei and entered the other world.
Li Ling looked around, and there were all dense trees around, and they should have come to the deep mountains.
"The first and second teams obey the order! Exploring within a radius of five kilometers, it is important to find out what dangers may exist and whether there is intelligent life in this world. ”
"The third, fourth, and fifth teams are under order, and you are under martial law around to guard against enemy attacks."
"The other five teams are responsible for clearing the grass and trees near the South Heavenly Gate, carrying supplies, and building an advance base!"
The five hundred elites moved quickly, and after confirming that there was no danger in the vicinity for the time being, two more battalions of elite troops entered the other world through the Tianwei Gate, followed by engineers, infrastructure troops, and scientific researchers.
Just a few days later, the Tang Empire had already built an advance base in another world.
Inside this forward base is a ten-meter-high, three-meter-thick reinforced concrete fence that protects the Tianwei Gate in the middle.
With a team of nearly 3,000 people, the logistics supply is a little tight, and the Tianwei Gate is used to transport building materials such as reinforced concrete most of the time, and the food supply is a little insufficient.
In order to meet the food needed for survival, the school captain Li Ling sent some people out hunting.
Five or six miles away from the base, I faintly remembered a few gunshots, which broke the silence in the forest.
"Sir, that tiger has been killed by us!"
"Good! What a big white-fronted tiger, this beast is three or four meters long, and the speed of running is far faster than that of ordinary tigers, what did he grow up eating? Li Ling couldn't help but sigh.
"But it's not, we hit it dozens of times with a Shenwu II rifle, and in the end, I personally shot it and shot it through the tiger's eyes, so I killed this white tiger." A young man in a regular uniform said.
Li Ling rolled his eyes: "Okay, the credit is indispensable to you, you can eat one more piece of tiger meat after you go back today, okay?" ”
At this moment, a soldier suddenly came over in a hurry, and after giving a military salute, he reported: "Report to the sir!" The scout team spotted a native in the vicinity, who seemed to be following the tiger and happened to be hit by us. ”
"Natives?" Li Ling was surprised and delighted when he heard this: "Is it confirmed that it is an intelligent life?" Don't catch a few monkeys and tell me they're natives. ”
"Report sir, my subordinates are sure that they are intelligent beings, because they are exactly the same as us, they are all humans, and they are all yellow people with black hair, black eyes, and yellow skin!"
Li Ling's heart was surging, even if he was already mentally prepared, after discovering tigers, monkeys, rabbits and other animals that also exist in the Tang world in this world, he guessed that there might be humans living in this world, but he was still excited at this time.
"Bring that man over quickly, I'm going to ask for it myself!"
It didn't take long for a small group of heavily armed elite soldiers to come over with a strong man in ancient costume.
The strong man was about 1.8 meters tall, and the muscles on his body were bulging one by one, and he looked powerful.
Li Ling was about to ask, and suddenly remembered that this was not in the Tang Dynasty, can humans in another world understand Chinese? Why don't you bring it back to the base first and find a few language experts to help decipher the language of another world?
The soldier next to him seemed to know Li Ling's concerns, and said with a strange face: "Sir, this man can even speak Chinese!" ”
"What ?!!"
Li Ling's eyes widened suddenly, there are humans in the other world who can understand, and the other party can understand if he is a yellow race, but the humans in the different worlds actually speak the same language, which is a bit amazing.
Li Ling suddenly thought of something and asked, "Dare to ask Your Excellency, do you know the Haotian God?" ”
"Of course I know the God of Haotian, isn't it God." The strong man was surrounded by so many people, and he was a little nervous, and stammered in reply.
When Li Ling heard it, sure enough, the other party was speaking Chinese, although the tone was a little weird, and you had to distinguish carefully to hear what the other party was saying, but there are many dialects of Chinese, and Chinese in another world sounds similar to a certain dialect in the southeast.
Thinking of this person's answer, Li Ling quickly came to a conclusion: "What's wrong with speaking Chinese in another world?" Everyone is the people of Haotian God, and maybe the people of Haotian God all speak the same language......"
