Chapter 6: The Attack on the Storage Center (Part I)

Near midnight, two drunken drunkards on the streets of Fark City staggered near the East Gate Storage Center, and slowly walked west along the high walls of the Storage Center. With a "poof", one of the drunkards fell to the side of the road and brought the other to the ground. The two of them did not stand up for a long time, and seemed to have fallen asleep. The wolf soldiers on duty on the sentry tower stared at them for a long time. Seeing that they had been lying there and not moving, they gradually relaxed, just glancing at them from time to time.

On the watchtower in the northwest corner of the storage center, a wolf soldier sensed that the base of a certain wall seemed to be a little different from usual. But after looking at it for a while, I couldn't see anything wrong. Rubbing my sore eyes, I looked over again, and the feeling disappeared. Could it be that I haven't rested well for the past few days, and that something is wrong with my spirit? Or is my eyes glazed? The wolf soldier thought strangely.

While the wolf soldier was thinking, Zhou Sheng had already quietly infiltrated the storage center. Hiding in the shadows under the corner, Zhou Sheng watched vigilantly at the grass and trees around him. He was now dressed in black, and even his head and face were tightly wrapped in black cloth, revealing only a pair of eyes to observe the surroundings. A special potion is sprayed on him to mask the smell on his body. This is the experience left over from thousands of years of war between humans and beasts, and the wolf tribe has a very sensitive sense of smell and can distinguish the smell of a born person. Therefore, when lurking, you must cover up the smell on your body to avoid being detected by the wolf clan.

After three hours of observation and exploration, Zhou Sheng had a clear understanding of the changing of the guard and the patrol route of the wolf soldiers. The wolf soldiers on guard changed shifts every two hours, and during the two-hour duty time, a total of twenty squads of wolf soldiers patrolled six times according to the predetermined route, and every two squads were responsible for patrolling a warehouse. It took five minutes to walk around the warehouse, and the two teams set off from the south gate of the warehouse at the same time, walking in opposite directions, and met at the north gate of the warehouse about two and a half minutes. Then continue walking, return to the south gate after five minutes, rest for fifteen minutes before making the next round.

There was a sentry at the south and north gates of each warehouse, each with five wolf soldiers. There was also a squadron of 100 soldiers who set out from the barracks and made rounds around ten warehouses every hour.

In the northeast corner of the storage center, there was a row of barracks, where about three wings of wolf soldiers were stationed. If there's anything out of the ordinary, you'll be able to get there within a minute. On the gatehouse, there is a brigade of about 500 wolf soldiers, who are responsible for guarding the gatehouse and the gate.

A pair of lanterns are hung on each of the two gates of the warehouse, illuminating the doors of the warehouse. There is a pair of searchlights shining in all directions on the gatehouse.

While figuring out the patrol rules of the wolf soldiers, Zhou Sheng also surveyed the terrain of the entire storage center. The outer five-meter-high perimeter wall is made of bluestone strips, and the floor inside is paved with granite. The warehouse was also made of granite, with no windows on all sides, only a gate in the north and south for goods to enter and exit. The gate is made of bronze and is very sturdy. Zhou Sheng tried to push, but the gate did not move, and it was estimated that it was controlled by a mechanism in the sentry.

The roof of the warehouse was also built of large blocks of granite, and adhesives were used at the joints, which made it difficult to dig even with sharp blades. Zhou Sheng tapped on the roof everywhere, making a dull sound, indicating that the stones used in the roof were very thick.

Slipping down from the roof of the warehouse, Zhou Sheng came to the barracks where the wolf soldiers lived. It is a four-story building, and the lower three floors are through the room, and the wolf soldiers of the three wings live on one floor each according to the structure. On the fourth floor are private rooms for the Wing Commander, Group Leader, and Squadron Leader. The barracks were much more rudimentary than the warehouses, made of bricks and stones, which were easily damaged.

About 500 meters west from the barracks is the north gate of the storage center, and there is a staircase on the left and right leading to the castle tower above. There was also a sentry next to the door where a squad of soldiers was stationed. Because it is inside the storage center, this guard is not mainly for defense, but is only responsible for the opening and closing of the north gate.

Zhou Sheng modified and supplemented the schematic diagram of the storage center obtained from the computer according to the actual situation, and then marked the patrol routes of each guard post and soldier clearly on the drawing. The number of troops stationed in each place is also listed as accurately and in detail as possible, and some key points in the soldiers' patrols are also noted.

When all this was done, it was almost dawn, and Zhou Sheng quietly slipped out near the north gate of the storage center.

Soon after Zhou Sheng left, the two drunkards also staggered to their feet, opened their sleepy eyes, yawned long, and walked west with each other's arms. The wolf soldiers in the storage center continued to patrol as usual, not aware of what had happened that night.

Late at night for four consecutive days, Liu Yu and the three of them reconnoitred all the four storage centers in Falke City. It has a full understanding of its internal troop deployment and defensive loopholes. After that, he made a detailed reconnaissance of the structure of the troops, the station, and the defense situation of the city defense army in Fark City. After countless wargames, the course of action was finally determined.

Ten days later, Liu Yu and the three of them packed up all their weapons and equipment, and quietly waited for the scheduled time to come.

At midnight, the three men split up and went to a storage center. Liu Yu is in charge of the west, Zhou Sheng is in charge of the south, and Zhang Tianqi is in charge of the east. According to the prior plan, Liu Yu and Zhou Sheng started the operation first, and when the two of them acted half an hour later, Zhang Tianqi started to act again. At this time, Liu Yu and Zhou Sheng will rush to the storage center in the north to sabotage, while Zhang Tianqi will continue to stay near the east gate to prepare for their withdrawal from Falk City.

When the pre-set attack time came at one o'clock in the morning, a huge explosion sounded near the west and south gates of Fark City at the same time, and in an instant, twenty warehouses in the two storage centers were razed to the ground in the explosion. The piercing sirens sounded, and the orc troops stationed in Falk City rushed to the two storage centers where the accident occurred. The wolf garrisons in the other two storage centers also reacted quickly, surrounding the warehouses in a circle to prevent anyone from approaching.

The wolf army stationed in the storage center to the west and south has suffered heavy losses. At the same time as the warehouse exploded, the barracks were also blown up, and most of the wolf soldiers who were sleeping inside were already dead while they were still asleep. The soldiers patrolling near the warehouse also went to **. The soldiers guarding the gatehouse didn't know what was going on, and they didn't dare to leave their defensive positions easily, so they could only sound the alarm desperately to inform the other orc troops in Falk City.

In the chaos, Liu Yu and Zhou Sheng had already infiltrated the interior of the storage center and set the ten warehouses on fire one after another. For a while, the flames soared, and the two storage centers were turned into flames. Seeing the fire spreading, the wolf soldiers on the gatehouse couldn't care too much anymore, and immediately divided half of their people to rush down to put out the fire.

There was chaos in the storage center, and the defenders of Fark City who rushed over were not easy. On the street leading to the two storage centers, every time they passed a street corner, an explosion occurred on the ground, blocking them out. I stopped and searched around, but I couldn't see a single figure. After leaving behind dozens of corpses, the defenders of Fark City rushed forward again. After a few such tosses, the orc army had become frightened birds, stopping and cautiously groping their way forward every time they came to a street corner. But no matter how cautious you are, you can't see where the enemy is, and you can't talk about defense. I can only rush forward hard, and I can't stop praying to the beast god, hoping that bad luck will not befall me.

Only one of the five wing commanders in the western storage center survived the explosion, and after the chaos that began to occur, he also came to his senses. So far, there was no trace of the enemy, and he decisively ordered the twenty squadrons defending the gatehouse to abandon the guards of the gatehouse and devote themselves to extinguishing the fire in the warehouse and treating the wounded soldiers. And it is strictly forbidden for people to run around at will, and the corresponding work must be carried out according to the divided area, and violators will be killed.

With the command and dispatch of the chief officer, the chaotic situation in the western storage center has suddenly changed greatly, and all the work is also being carried out in an orderly manner.

Seeing that the situation had been brought under control, Liu Yu could only throw out a few more grenades, and after causing a little trouble, he withdrew from the storage center in the west and rushed to the north.

Zhou Sheng's side was much calmer, at the beginning of the chaos, when the wolf clan captain had just begun to make deployments, the two captains who had gathered together to discuss countermeasures were sniped by Zhou Sheng. As a result, the situation became even more chaotic, and everyone became at a loss and did not know what to do. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Zhou Sheng even set fires everywhere to create chaos. By the time a squadron leader organized the soldiers, the fire had become uncontrollable, and they had to be left to burn and treat the wounded first.

After Zhou Sheng did all this, he also rushed to the storage center in the north.

The storage centers to the west and north were attacked one after another, and the city lord of Falk City and the supreme commander of the city defense army did not dare to slack off, and immediately got up and went there. The commander of the city defense army, the commander of the 28th Army Corps, Sanae Aso, gave the order to the adjutant while rushing to the door of the mansion.

Just as the group had just stepped out of the gate and had not yet reached the street, the explosion occurred again. The adjutant and a squad of guards who were at the front were killed by the debris from the explosion. The captain of the Aso army was dressed in heavy armor, and there were guards in front of him, so he escaped the catastrophe. Even so, I was shocked into a cold sweat. Not daring to stay longer, he hurried to the west of the city surrounded by the guards.

The city lord was not so lucky, he also encountered an explosion when he walked out of the city lord's mansion, and the city lord, who was a civil official, had neither guards nor armor, and was blown to pieces at that time, and he could no longer see the sun the next day.

Hurrying to the storage center in the west, Aso looked full of desolation, and his face was gloomy and he could wring out water. After listening to the surviving wing commander's report, he gave him a few instructions, left a brigade of soldiers to assist in the rescue, and then rushed to the storage center to the south.
