Li Mengdie did not choose to fight for the latter, because it was useless to fight for them. Like those who chose to escape before, they had no effect except to hold them back and cry and scream.
The former, without a doubt, can become the staunchest fighter with a little mobilization.
There are also many guards who pretend to be peons in order to escape with their lives. But it is a pity that people like Li Mengdie have come out of suffering. They can easily distinguish whether these people are the real oppressed people and shoot all the pretenders.
What I have to say is that compared to the Northland's almost brainwashing method of taming slaves, this count is far behind. Basically, he relies on violence to make people surrender. This is indeed extremely effective, but at this time, their suppressed The monstrous anger will completely erupt in his heart.
Soon, Li Mengdie relied on speeches and mobilization to build a team of more than 120 people in the castle. Most of them were women, but their workload made them much stronger than ordinary people. , it’s not like he can’t even pick up a gun.
No one who was enslaved here was willing to give up this opportunity for revenge. They followed Li Mengdie upstairs and began to clean the battlefield. They equipped all the best automatic rifles and inventoried some of the arms storage in the castle. to ensure that everyone has an advantage in equipment.
Some strong peons also lifted up the two heavy pulse rifles, but they were just ordinary people after all. They couldn't control it alone. They could only work in groups of three, with two people resisting the gun and one person aiming and shooting. Finally, these two Heavy weapons were also used.
Li Mengdie quickly taught these people how to use weapons, and these smart people learned it quickly and were ready to fight.
It seemed that the next defense battle would become extremely comfortable, but she did not rush it and directly threw everyone into the battlefield. She only sent about twenty people to the second floor to strengthen the defense, while the remaining people concentrated on logistics. Work to gather all weapons and ammunition to the third floor of the castle.
There were a lot of strange equipment in the arsenal that Li Mengdie didn't understand. Maybe even the earl's people didn't know what they were for, so they didn't see them at all in the battle just now.
But it didn't matter. She only brought all the rifles, pistols, artillery shells, grenades she knew, and about a dozen heavy machine guns that she didn't know how to use downstairs. When Dai Mubai came back, he could teach them.
And what is Dai Mubai doing now? He came to the roof of the castle alone and put down a small device.
A ripple spread out, covering the entire fortress, and all the enemies had turned into symbols, projected on the screen of the panel.
This is a tactical radar that can automatically detect military units and convert them into different icons. For example, the enemy's artillery positions, infantry, machine gun positions, and soul master squads are all marked with different icons.
Dai Mubai had already distributed such panels to the large troops in the outer city, which meant that from now on, all of them had their eyes opened and could detect all the enemy's tactical arrangements.
After doing this, Dai Mubai returned downstairs and was surprised to find that Li Mengdie had already armed so many troops. In his heart, he felt more confident about this war of a few hundred against a few thousand. .
Dai Mubai asked four people to form a machine gun team, and then modularized the work of this team so that everyone could perform their duties and complete their work, so that everything could proceed in an orderly manner.
Soon, Dai Mubai's ten temporary heavy machine gun positions were placed in the castle's easy-to-defend areas. At the same time, he selected five of the most advanced light pulse rifles with extremely strong endurance from the weapons pile. They were given to Li Mengdie and the others.
Immediately afterwards, Dai Mubai started to disperse the grenades into each position. At the same time, arrange the troops for cross fire cover to ensure that the enemy will not sneak attack through the window.
After the formation was formed, the sense of urgency of being surrounded by the army suddenly eased a lot. Dai Mubai separated some people to find some food in the castle and distributed it to everyone, obviously preparing to fight here for a long time.
"Sir, I discovered something strange." Li Mengdie sat on the ground, and Dai Mubai gathered around a topographic map of the fortress that was found in a high-rise room.
The jade finger points to the artillery camp near the outer city.
"It was clear that as long as they turned their guns and started bombing the fortress, we would have no way to escape and there would be no chance of turning around, but why didn't they do that?"
Dai Mubai chuckled lightly: "If such a situation occurs, do you think I will take the risk of coming here? Do you know what is the most precious thing in this earldom?"
"The title of earl?" Li Mengdie scratched her head. She could only think that the following people were competing for the leadership of the earldom, so she gave them a chance.
"It's the weapons in your hands. You still don't understand the importance of these things. These are the most advanced weapons and equipment in the Kyushu Empire. Not to mention the most advanced things in this county, looking at the whole world."
"Without these weapons and equipment as a foundation, this place will soon be targeted by other greedy nobles, who will eat it up in one bite."
"The people downstairs will not retreat, nor dare to attack by force, but they will never give up this place to the troops led by others. The troops in the outer city control the artillery positions, but they dare not carry out bombing, because this means The people downstairs must retreat to avoid being affected by the artillery fire, and must bear the consequences of destroying all the arsenals in the castle."
Li Mengdie looked at the pulse rifle in her hand, and she understood.
In this day, she seemed to have gone through hundreds of years.
At the beginning, the escort was still using traditional bolt-action rifles, then the large-caliber pistols used by Dai Mubai and the terrifying dragon flame cannon, and then the heavy pulse rifles used by the count's personal guards. And those relatively lightweight fully automatic rifles, and the heavy machine guns that are now the main force of enemies and friendly forces.
But now, what she is holding is a more terrifying weapon. It is more powerful than a fully automatic rifle, has a faster rate of fire, has no recoil, and has an amazing battery life. A pulse ammunition bottle can continuously fire hundreds of rounds. Now Looking back at the earliest bolt-action rifle, she felt as if everything was still in a dream.
"If the Empress of the Kyushu Empire takes out such a gun and places a bounty on this earl's head, I'm afraid the whole world will be shocked and swarm her. This is the horror of the empire. Do you understand?"
"...I understand." Li Mengdie lowered his head. This is not difficult to understand. I am afraid this is also why the count only equips bolt-action rifles in the dispatched teams. The other weapons are kept in his base camp for the use of cronies or Just don't distribute it.
