Chapter 126
It was already surprising that the monster had a commander before, and now the monster can use tools, although it is just a simple wooden stick, and there is no technical content, but it is amazing enough, after all, the second-level madman has a huge body, and the wooden stick he holds can be equivalent to the previous siege machine!
After coming back to his senses, Tang Ning realized that these madmen who had been released alone were holding wooden sticks in order to crash the city gates!
Looking at the giant monster maniacs wearing armor with magic and rushing towards the gate of the border wall, Tang Ning frowned and ordered.
"Send people to reinforce the city gates, and then concentrate on the obsidian grenades distributed to the soldiers, five grenades in groups, tied together and wait for them to approach before throwing them out. ”
Immediately after the order was given, the border wall was busy.
Looking at the monster maniac with a huge body and extremely strong defense, but extremely slow to move, Tangning could only hope that the obsidian grenade could make the monster maniac defeat.
The city was ready to throw grenades tied together, and a large number of soldiers looked solemn, obviously they were not too optimistic about the role of this grenade, but the matter had come to this, and only dead horses were used as live horse doctors.
Now the shooting continues, some monsters are hiding behind the giant madman, a bit of a later life Butan synergy, but the game is not too good, some monsters are directly trampled to death by the monster maniac.
When the monster approached the border wall, Tang Ning gave an order.
"Throwing ......"
As the order was given, a large number of grenades were thrown at the monster maniac under the border wall.
"Boom ......"
The sound of explosions was constantly sounded, accompanied by a violent light.
The madmen who had approached the city gate before they could attack the city gate were instantly overwhelmed by the explosion, and only a large number of screams could be heard.
There are also some monsters whose limbs fly directly onto the border wall and land on the border wall, and the border wall and city gate are contaminated with the slime of the monsters, and they are in a mess.
Tang Ning stood at the head of the city, and the Titan Type 1 armor also splashed a lot of monster slime.
Useful!
The obsidian grenade can defeat the armor enchanted by the monster maniac, Tang Ning secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, originally he thought that the monster he caught before could form a protective layer to defend against obsidian bullets, but he couldn't defend against obsidian grenades, and the enchantment of the armor on the monster maniac was a bit similar to the defense of that kind of monster, so he tried it, and it seems that the judgment was not wrong.
At the same time, the soldiers who had been lost began to pick up their spirits and attack.
Outside the border wall, it was tragic and abnormal.
The battle lasted for nearly two hours, and the number of monster maniacs killed reached more than five hundred, and some other monsters hiding behind the madmen were also killed by obsidian grenades.
But at this time He-Man brought bad information.
"Your Majesty, less than half of our grenades are left, and I don't know if we will be able to hold out until daylight. ”
Once daylight comes, these monsters hide and they don't dare to fight during the day.
And after daylight, it is completely possible for the factory in Babis City to produce more obsidian grenades, which will be sent in a steady stream, and there will be no need to worry about the consumption of obsidian grenades at that time.
But if it doesn't reach daylight, the situation becomes extremely dire.
Just when Tang Ning had a headache, suddenly a strange and melodious cry came from the wasteland, this kind of cry came from the monster, and it was obvious that the monster commander was planning to change his tactics!
What do they want?
Downing didn't frown.
In the next second, I saw that the monsters that were still charging began to retreat, including those monster maniacs who were rushing up from the passage, they were all retreating!
After seeing this, the soldiers at the head of the city cheered loudly.
"They retreated, and we won...... We defeated the army of monsters. ”
Seaman was also inexplicably excited.
"Your Majesty, the monster has retreated, and we have won. ”
It was the first battle he had commanded on his own, and it was by far the strongest enemy the Confederation Empire had ever encountered, and it was nothing that anyone would be thrilled about.
But Don Rather couldn't be happier.
Victory?
It's just a temporary victory, the monster army has only consumed less than a fifth, their combat effectiveness is still very strong, they will never retreat like this, this is just a truce, maybe the monster is planning a new battle plan.
So time is still running out.
Thinking of this, Tang Ning immediately gave an order.
"Let the soldiers rest in place and be on standby, and send the guards on duty to keep an eye on the monsters' movements. ”
Seaman nodded, and immediately ordered someone to do it.
Downing walked all the way around the city, and found that many soldiers had collapsed, and the battle was extremely exhausting, especially when it was fearful.
After observing for a while, he walked down the city and walked near the city gate, where some soldiers were still reinforcing the city.
At this time, Lori Hannah came over, also sweating profusely.
"The monsters have been repulsed, but they should attack again, and it's hard to say how long we'll be able to hold out. ”
Lori Hannah's worries are not unreasonable, compared to monsters, people's combat ability is affected by various factors, and there are more variables.
Tang Ning nodded, and immediately turned on the voice system.
"Tell Barbis City at once that the mass production of obsidian grenades should be delivered to the border wall as quickly as possible. ”
After hearing this, Nami, the artificial intelligence, immediately connected the phone, automatically dialed, and informed His Majesty the King of Barbis City of the order.
Then Downing returned to the city, frowning at the monster in the distance, which seemed to have fallen silent and did not intend to attack again, and continued until the next morning.
The next day, before dawn, the monster had disappeared from outside the city.
This gave the Federal Empire a respite, and Downing immediately convened a military council.
All the mid- and high-ranking officers of the army were present at the meeting, including Lori Hannah and Elizabeth.
Downing spoke when he saw everyone coming.
"You must be prepared for a long battle, and until we find a way to crush the enemy, we must hold the border wall, maybe a week, maybe a month, maybe half a year. “
Hearing His Majesty's words, the commanders' expressions were solemn.
"The resources for long-term operations will be brought to the city of Babis when the time comes, so as to ensure that the soldiers will not be affected by the lack of resources. ”
Then he looked at Lori Hannah.
"Does the witch Defiya have any magic that can heal the psychological wounds of soldiers, the kind that can make people forget the unpleasantness for a while?"
Lori Hannah thought for a moment and nodded.
"There is a magic that can quickly heal the psychological wounds in people's hearts and make people happy. ”
Hearing the witch's answer, Tangning immediately commanded.
"Take these witches out of the healing sequence for a while, and set up a mental health team to solve the psychological problems of those soldiers after each battle. ”
Now the soldiers on the border wall have fourth-generation obsidian armor, and there are very few chances of being injured, so the witches who are in charge of treatment are not under much pressure, and if they are drawn out to solve the psychological problems of the soldiers, it can be regarded as the best use.
Before Lori Hannah could speak, Downing continued: "Forming a vocal ensemble to perform for the soldiers after the battle and enriching the after-war entertainment will relieve psychological stress. ”
After saying this, Downing decided to go back to Barbis City during the day, and then rush over at night before the big battle, the time was very tight, and he had to set off immediately.
The purpose of returning to Barbis City is of course to find a more powerful weapon! after all, the monster has become very powerful, and it needs some new means of dealing with it!
