Chapter 66: Phantom Silver Fox
The news of the desolate beast storming the city was quickly transmitted to the rulers of Sifang City. The Marshal's Mansion also made a response at the first time, and the corps commander in charge of the eastern defense line, who also accompanied the generals of the Marshal's Mansion, rushed to the scene.
At this time, the regiments stationed in the hinterland of the armament zone were also preparing for war in an intense and orderly manner, and were always ready for long-range artillery strikes and necessary support.
In the armament area, all kinds of locomotives responsible for transporting materials and personnel are also shuttling non-stop. Obviously, Sifang City attaches great importance to this incident of the desolate beast rushing to the city.
The soldiers assembled in the city on standby were also assigned different tasks, and He Yifei's thousand-man regiment was ordered to climb the city wall and began to guard the defense line that belonged to his own 10,000-person regiment.
Looking at the desolate beasts outside the city, He Yifei's mood was also inexplicably excited, and it was the first time he saw such a spectacular scene, he even forgot the work at hand, and only looked at the strong enemy who was about to clash with humans.
"Brother He, at this time, you must not be distracted. If it is discovered from above, I am afraid that it will be convicted in the name of slacking off!"
Huo Yingqi is still more experienced than He Yifei, and at this time, he can still maintain a little rationality.
"Brother Huo, how fierce is this desolate beast rushing into the city? Our steel city wall is more than 30 meters high, can those desolate beasts still fly in?"
After receiving Huo Yingqi's reminder, He Yifei hurriedly turned around and worked with him to disassemble the sealed materials and place them on both sides of the huge mecha in an orderly manner to facilitate its use and replacement.
"I don't know, I came a few years before you, but I haven't experienced this kind of scene. However, the second brother said, we must not underestimate these wild beasts, we must pay attention to protect ourselves!"
Huo Yingqi turned his head and glanced at the scene outside the city, shaking his head without a clue, in fact, in his heart, he was also looking forward to witnessing the spectacle of a desolate beast storming the city.
"Brother He, your strength is weak, and at a critical time, I'm afraid I won't have time to take care of you. So, you must not act recklessly!"
Thinking of He Yifei's previous impulse, Huo Yingqi had to patiently advise again.
"Life and death are fate, wealth is in the sky, in this general situation, I can only try my luck! Brother Huo, no matter whether I live or die, it is all my fate. ”
He Yifei glanced at the oppressive group of desolate beasts again, and said without confidence.
"Master Wanfu is here, Brother He, the work in your hands must not stop. ”
Huo Yingqi found that Captain Wan was walking towards them, hurriedly bent down, and whispered to He Yifei beside him.
Seeing this, He Yifei also hurriedly lowered his body and carefully fiddled with the work in his hands. At this moment, he didn't even dare to look at the figure of the captain.
However, as two soldiers, they were not enough to attract the attention of the captain. What really made him leave his post was only because the legion commander and other big figures were discussing on the city walls.
At this time, Chu Madsheng was still following the left and right of Captain Wan, chatting without a word. When they passed by Huo Yingqi and He Yifei, Chu Madsheng didn't even have time to talk to them, so he hurried by.
The time of the day passed quickly, and when night fell, the soldiers, who had been busy all day, were only nested in a corner of the city wall, eating a simple dinner hastily to fill the hunger in their stomachs.
However, the wild beasts outside the city seem to be waiting for the night to come.
At this time, in the distant sky, a sturdy white tiger was slowly walking out of the dense mountain forest.
However, the humans of Sifang City could not see that on the broad back of the white tiger, there were two petite silver foxes lying side by side.
Those two foxes are the masterminds behind the desolate beast storming the city - the phantom silver fox.
The phantom silver fox, lying on the back of the tiger, was staring at the city wall in the distance with its small round eyes. It seemed as if they could see everything above the city walls from where they were, from such a distance.
With a shrill voice like a baby, the phantom silver fox lying on the left side was already slowly standing up.
However, the phantom silver fox that stood up, its eyes were like spitting fire, and it looked into the distance angrily.
Another shrill sound came, and the phantom silver fox lying on the right side turned its head to look at its companion.
However, compared to the impatient phantom silver fox, this one's eyes are more calm. Clearly, it was planning an even more ferocious siege.
The phantom silver fox, which got up, looked at its companion unwillingly, but in the end, it still chose to compromise, bent its limbs again, and lay down again.
As the sun slowly set into the sky, the earth was finally shrouded in endless darkness.
In order to be prepared, the searchlight equipment on the city wall is also quickly sweeping the wasteland outside the city. However, it is difficult to illuminate the entire wasteland with the help of searchlight alone.
The arrival of night also made the commanders on the scene nervous, and the soldiers who were resting in the corners also returned to their respective posts under the orders conveyed layer by layer, and were ready for battle.
However, the desolate beast did not choose to attack the Sifang City at this time, and under the control of the giant wolves roaming around the periphery, the desolate beast group finally stopped moving forward, hiding in the light of the searchlight equipment, and regained its strength slightly.
The wait is long. Waiting in such a stressful environment is even more of an ordeal.
Gradually, the soldiers' defenses have been relaxed, and as human beings, it is difficult for them to maintain a tense state all the time. After all, the soldiers couldn't see the figure of the desolate beast at all, and the location of the desolate beast was beyond the scope of the smart helmet's detection.
However, the soldiers on the city walls seemed to have become live targets. Under the light of the lamppost, with the help of the phantom silver fox close to the night, he could clearly see every move of the human being.
"Whew!"
Just when the soldiers were in a state of confusion, a loud tiger roar echoed across the entire wasteland.
"Oh no! The beast is ready to attack the city!"
The sound of the tiger's roar seemed to be a signal to launch this duel, and its arrival also made the human commanders dare not slack off.
With the issuance of orders one after another, the soldiers who stuck to their posts also aimed their firepower at the wasteland below the city.
"Boom!"
At this moment, there was also a chaotic and dull sound above the wasteland, like the muffled thunder, which shook people's hearts. This sound originated from the galloping beasts of the wasteland.
The duel between humans and beasts is about to be staged, and no one dares to speculate on the final outcome, all they can do is to do everything they can to defend this iron defense.
