Chapter 58: A Well (Final)
As mentioned above, the driver insisted on staying to protect the well, but unexpectedly encountered the army that "came to visit".
Village chief, even you don't know what's so special about this well? Or are you not going to tell me the secret of this well at all?
The commander of the unit sat at one end of the long table and looked at the village chief at the other end, and his tone was both questioning and threatening.
I've told you everything I know, and there's nothing you can do if you don't believe me.
The village chief didn't like outsiders coming to the village, let alone the army he didn't want to see the most, and his tone was full of the meaning of rushing guests.
The ships in the sky are almost gone, either destroyed or run out of fuel and return to larger ships. By this time it was already dark, and the sky was not full of stars as usual, on the contrary. The stars are not visible, because the thick clouds cover the earth and also hide people's hearts.
In order to explore the secrets of this well, the commander ordered the soldiers to drill a hole with a drill to see how deep the well was and to see if there was a protective shield underground. Half an hour later, the soldiers came to report that they had found a shallow layer of underground water more than forty meters underground. According to the results of exploration and testing, this shallow water layer has existed for more than 1,000 years, experienced a nuclear war in ancient times, and now there is still a small amount of radioactive material in it, and the shallow water layer that was originally layered up and down because of the geological shaking caused by this invasion, so it looks very turbid, not only that, but also dug out several corpses from it, all of which are the bones of the deceased hundreds of thousands of years ago. It stands to reason that this water quality is not suitable for use as a drinking water source, but according to the village chief, the water in the village is all fished from this well, and some of it is taken out for these soldiers to drink, and there is no problem at all. Perhaps, that's why this well exists here.
In this era, the treatment of water is pediatric, and there is no need for very esoteric technology, but there is still no good way to remove radioactive materials from water.
Night has come, and it is easy to do things when it is dark, and it is a good opportunity for a sneak attack.
The commander ordered everyone to be stationed around the village, and at the same time sent a patrol to take charge of the view within a radius of one kilometer to prevent anyone from sneaking into the village. At night, the village was brightly lit, and there were more than a dozen people guarding the well. People sit around and chat casually, and the content of the conversation is nothing more than what happened during the day today.
Boom! Sudden Sudden Rush!
Suddenly, gunshots rang out from the south side of the village.
Everyone stood up, nervous, and drew their pistols or rifles. The commander ran out of the house, threw away the cigarette butt in his mouth and shouted: Get ready for battle!
The southern edge of the village had turned into flickering daylight, and sounds and fires jumped back and forth through the trees like fast-moving fireflies. The weak roots of the trees could not resist the blazing bullets, and they were broken one after another, and the leaves flew like broken souls flying in the air. Some people fell, and they didn't know where the bullets came from; Some people are still alive, and he doesn't know where the bullets are going. The belated tank spewed out heavy shells like meteors, scattering a beautiful spark on the ground, taking not only the lives of strangers, but also potential threats.
The threat from the south has not yet been repulsed, and news of fighting is coming from the east and west and north at the same time.
The small village has been surrounded, something that was never expected since its establishment.
The commander brought over only more than 300 troops, and excluding scientists and doctors who had no combat effectiveness, only more than 200 people could fight. However, there are more than 1,000 people who have besieged the enemy, and there are thousands more who have come from behind.
Protect this well with all your might! Activate the Mobile Shield!
The commander shouted, and quickly pressed the start button.
Airplanes!
Layer after layer of light blue shields slowly rose from the protective shield generator installed on the truck like an umbrella, directly covering a range of more than five meters. These six protective shields surrounded the well like large mushrooms, and at the same time, the commander built a temporary combat command room next to the well, as if he wanted to live and die with this well.
One by one, the soldiers fell, and the tanks they brought with them were now left with two that could fire, one of which had broken tracks and could not move, and the people inside had given up retreating, ready to meet the predictable outcome with their tanks.
Bite!
A crisp sound sounded, and the source of the sound seemed to be the well. I saw that the purple shield that had not been removed before slowly faded, and a perfect sphere with a diameter of nearly one meter rose up from the wellhead, and there was an identical sphere below. The two spheres seemed to be very light and held up by the air, and from time to time they collided up and down, making a crisp metal collision sound.
This...... What is it?
The commander is also a well-informed person, Zhang Moda, he has never seen anything that can rise out of thin air without any thrust, and he can't help but open his mouth, and his eyes turn up with the rise of the two spheres.
The two spheres that rose into mid-air also changed from their previous upper and lower positions to the same horizontal position, just like the eight common Gemini stars in the universe, and it took a precise time to rotate around each other, one second.
Just as everyone was looking at the two spheres, a cannonball flew over.
While!
The cannonball hit one of the spheres, sending a flash of spark before it bounced off and flew into the distance.
The orbs stopped rotating immediately after being hit, and the two orbs seemed to point in one direction, which was the direction from which the armor-piercing projectile flew just now. Just when the people were about to be stunned, the sphere in front of them split like claws, and a blinding light shot out, pointing into the distance, and then extinguished. The whole process took less than half a second to end, as if what had just happened was a dream.
It wasn't a dream, it was something that really happened, because there was a series of explosions in the distance. The tanks that stood in a row in front and back were all destroyed, or the kind that were completely penetrated from the front and back.
This...... Is this an assault weapon?
The commander was frightened, surprised and at the same time felt even more pressed against him.
Sir! Oh no! The enemy has broken through the first line of defense!
At this time, there was a shout from the communicator, it turned out that the enemy had already taken this opportunity to attack, and the commander looked up at the two spheres in the air that were still turning in circles every second, and thought deeply about countermeasures.
Gather all of you to me!
The Commander commanded into the communicator.
The commander's men retreated and counterattacked, but the enemy's vitality was so dense that even a hard building could not withstand several blows and was shattered several times, and when there was no way to hide, dozens of bullets came at him, and no one could survive in this situation.
The enemy troops had already entered the village, the rumbling of tanks could already be heard, and the commander told everyone to hide under the mobile shield,
When the first enemy stepped within a hundred meters of the two orbs, the two orbs stopped again, reversed course, and pointed at the soldier. The soldier secretly hid in a house, looking through the window at the pale blue shields in the distance, while reporting the situation to his superiors, not noticing the two orbs at a height of ten meters.
Will this soldier be killed? Where are those two spheres? Will the village chief survive? What is the final outcome of Xiao Zhou?
To be continued......
