Chapter Twenty-Seven: Counterattack! Counterattack!!
Chapter Twenty-Seven: Counterattack! Counterattack!!
Zhang Shen and others came to this world on the twenty-first day.
Just the day before yesterday, the blue phoenix finally calculated the appearance and location of the "leader"!
The real situation is staggering!
The leader of the giant group is actually just a mini giant less than two meters tall!!
Its strength is very weak, it only has one abdominal muscle, and the muscle curve on its body is not really obvious, but it has a large head that is obviously beyond normal proportions, and its hair is grayish-white, and its face is full of wrinkles, as if it has overused its brain.
Zhang Shen and others affectionately named it - kohlrabi.
According to the observation statistics of many people these days, there are at least two kinds of kohlrabi capacities.
First, he issued orders in an unknown way to manipulate other giants into battle;
Second, a wisp of "consciousness" is separated and parasitized in the form of parasites in the bodies of other giants, so that the latter becomes a "doppelganger" like his own "doppelganger", making up for the general lack of intelligence of the native species.
Kohlrabi's second ability is a conclusion that everyone deduced based on the appearance of the water giant in the two night raids. During the two night attacks, the giants used the means of self-explosion (the second time was unsuccessful), and according to the statistics after the fact, there was always one giant in the night attack who had a different look in his eyes than the others, and the resentment and cruelty in it made people shudder.
This "difference" betrayed it deeply, and exposed the power of kohlrabi to the world.
Combined with the statistics of the previous giant attacks by the relevant departments in the kingdom, everyone deduced that as long as the kohlrabi can be successfully killed, the giant who acts according to the broken instinct will become a plate of loose sand, and there is no need to be afraid at all!
Especially in the kingdom, today, when the shotgun has completed a major reload, the scattered giants have long been ignored.
However, if you want to kill kohlrabi, you must first solve a big problem.
Blue Phoenix's prophecy has also gained an important piece of information: kohlrabi has a guard, or mount!
The petite kohlrabi is in the giant group, just like Oliver who has entered the giant country, and if you don't pay attention, you are in danger of being trampled to death. Therefore, it usually sits on the shoulders of another giant, and the latter is used as a mount to guide the country.
According to prophecy, the giant's guard is very powerful!
The number of abs in it has reached an unprecedented fifty-three pieces!!
Its height has also reached an unprecedented height of seventy meters!!
You must know that the strongest giant Zhang Shen has ever seen is only more than 30 meters tall and 30 abdominal muscles. In that case, Cheng Dù was already a combination of him and Li Sai, plus the increase of the Philosopher's Stone, and the "light enemy" of the giant itself, all kinds of factors combined to win the narrowly.
"A strong enemy, a real strong enemy!" Zhang Shen glanced at each other, and they all saw the solemn look in each other's eyes.
Although they also have high-end combat power, they also know with their toes that kohlrabi, which has "wisdom" and is extremely treacherous, will definitely not give them this one-on-one chance!
But......
What should come will always come.
"It's time to step out of the walls and go head-to-head with the giants!" Just yesterday, Blue Phoenix proposed this build. "I know this is a bit of a rush on the human side, but let's not forget where we stand."
Blue Phoenix's gaze was a little cold: "For us, destroying the giants is the top priority. As for some casualties, ha, any country has to pay the price when it recovers its territory. ”
"Besides, haven't you noticed that Daris's attitude has been a little different lately?!"
"The prerequisite for us to be able to mobilize the strength of a country is absolute force suppression. In addition, your recent large-scale food and armament refining has also gained us a lot of prestige. However, this is only the attitude of the lower middle class! ”
"For Daris, the replacement of armaments and the abundance of food reserves means that the power of control in their hands has increased, and it means that there are no worries."
"Don't underestimate human desires!"
"And don't underestimate the shamelessness of politicians!"
Blue Phoenix's words seemed to be a slap in the face, waking up Zhang Shen and everyone who had been immersed in the gratitude of countless people recently.
Zhang Shen recalled carefully, and then realized that the tone of the speech of Monte and other ministers in the past few days was indeed different from the beginning...... His heart was shocked, and he was shocked to sweat all over his body.
"What if they won't?" Li Jing frowned at her good-looking eyebrows, "Can you still force them?" ”
The corners of Yi Chao's mouth twitched, and his disdain overflowed: "Believe me, the more people in power, the more afraid of death!" ”
"If they dare to refuse, let them know how the dead word is written!"
……… Divide......... Cut......... Line.........
Today is the twenty-first day of Zhang Shen and the others coming to this world, and it is a big day for the human beings in this world.
Counterattack the giants and reclaim the land!!
On both sides of the road, crowded with people, the scene is spectacular, close to the first-tier city of a country in the real world. Most of them were wearing gray-brown linen clothes that Zhang Shen had recently refined, and they craned their necks and looked towards the middle. Their eyes were full of tears, and their faces were full of excitement, but they bit their lips tightly, suppressing them not to cry, so as not to alarm the giants outside the wall.
In the middle of the road, the morale of the Restoration Army was high, and they lined up in formation, and their anger was soaring.
They all changed into their nearest armor and weapons, and the open food supply gave them full strength, and when the gate opened, they rushed out to kill the enemy, killing all the giants.
In the center of the queue is the most important part - the gun carriage.
With Bojue's help, the most suitable field cannon for field operations was designed and equipped, and although it was not as powerful as the newly replaced cannon mounted on the city wall, it was still enough to compare with the previously unimproved artillery.
In addition to the artillery regiment, the army that went out this time was only an infantry regiment equipped with muskets, a sharp regiment that relied on three-dimensional mobile operations, and a small number of cavalry scouts, and the number was only a little more than 10,000.
After all, this was the first time that the new army had fought in the war, and Zhang Shen and the others did not dare to advance too much, and only planned to operate near the city wall and within the range of artillery, in order to be able to get fire support from the city wall.
When the last brick and stone blocking the city gate were removed, the soldiers and the surrounding people could no longer suppress their excitement and shouted!
For a while, the cheers shook the sky and soared into the sky.
Not far away, Daris and the others witnessed this qiē, and at the same time, their hearts were churning, and it was difficult to say for a while. Looking at Zhang Shen and the others who brought this qiē, the feelings in their eyes suddenly became a little more complicated.
As Blue Phoenix expected, witnessing the changes in the kingdom, they did have some caution in their hearts, and when they were "notified" to carry out a counteroffensive, they were even more fiercely opposed, but ......
When the faint threat of Blue Phoenix and the others came out, they were intimidated at that time.
Even if they hated and were unwilling in their hearts, they did not dare to gamble with their lives. Helpless, Daris and the others could only give the right to transfer troops to Zhang Shen and a few people on the spot with humiliation, and announced that they would be fully responsible for the counterattack and other matters......
The grievances of yesterday that came to mind reflected the joyful scene in front of them, and for a while, Daris and the others felt even more desolate.
Li Sai sensed the complex gaze behind him, and the corners of his mouth hooked up a hint of meaning.
This period of hard hunting allowed her to take a step further on the road to the transformation of the broken face, and a small piece of mask quietly shattered and dissipated, revealing a small half of her smooth chin, revealing infinite temptation between the faint and the faint.
At the gates of the city, when all the debris was cleared, someone released a signal.
After receiving the signal, the soldiers who had been waiting on the city wall for a long time lit fire and opened fire. Suddenly, the rumbling explosions passed through the city walls and reached everyone's ears, many of which were mixed with the roars of giants.
There is such a big movement in the city, how can kohlrabi not know?!
On the other side of the city gate, hundreds of giants wandering nearby had already gathered, and giants farther away also rushed towards this side under the order of kohlrabi.
At this time, the shelling was to clear the road for Zhang Shen and them.
Shells and grenades rained down from all the losses, quickly sweeping away the nearby giants, leaving only scattered bone fragments and rising steam.
"Open the door!!" I don't know who shouted first, and the next moment, everyone screamed, as if to vent the humiliation and sorrow that humanity has endured in the past few months.
Open the door! Open the door!! Open the door!!!
Under the watchful eye, the doors that had been closed for months slowly opened.
The warm sunlight shines through the city gate, shining into everyone's heart, dispelling the cold in the depths of their hearts.
"Let's go!!" The old general shouted, and the cavalry scouts rushed out first, followed by the sharp regiments that also rode horses and used three-dimensional maneuvers. Following the pace of the Sharp Corps, the infantry marched out of the gate at a neat pace, and finally the Artillery Corps.
Zhang Shen and all the other defenders—except for a few who would rather die than fight—rode horses and followed behind the artillery regiment, all tense their nerves, and a faint evil aura diffused out.
As soon as I walked out of the city gate, the atmosphere suddenly changed!
Overhead, the white steam that had not yet dissipated blocked the sunlight and cast a shadow;
At his feet, there were craters from the explosion of the shells, and where he could see it, he could smell a thick scorching smell, which was the smell of giants being burned by gunpowder, which was not dispersed;
Ahead, looking up, a large number of giants were rushing towards this side quickly, their tall bodies blocking the sun, casting hideous shadows one after another, which was particularly shocking and terrifying.
This scene is completely different from what you see on the city wall!!
The veterans who fought with real knives and guns and giants have long since died, almost all of them here are new soldiers, who have only been on the city wall before, and they were suddenly intimidated by the momentum of the giant's impact, and their morale dissipated out of thin air, and many people showed a look of panic and fear on their faces.
"Ritsu: Courage!!" The blue phoenix had already expected it, and with a wave of the purple gold scepter, the invisible aura spread violently and integrated into everyone's body.
The expressions of the soldiers suddenly changed, their faces were full of determination, and a faint military aura emanated, floating in the sky, turning into the courage of battle.
Array, meet the enemy!!
The old general couldn't be amazed, and issued orders one after another.
War, on the verge of breaking out!
