On the front line, Chu Jungui's chariot drove up the hillside and slowly stopped. His tank was riddled with holes, and a big hole was opened in the rear half. The cockpit inside was completely exposed, and was then blocked by Chu Jungui with two fragments of armor plates. In addition, two of the six driving wheels of the chariot are missing. Fortunately, one is missing on one side. It's a miracle that a tank like this can still drive forward.
Chu Jungui stood on the top of the chariot and looked back, only to see a sparse number of chariots climbing up the hillside behind him. He knew the number without counting, 26 cars.
In a little more than a day, Chu Jungui had fought four battles in a row with the hunting troops sent by the Knights of the Round Table. The Round Table knights seemed to hate Chu Jungui so much that they actually sent three hunting troops to surround him. This is forcing Chu Jungui to fight decisively, otherwise they will send a super large force, and Chu Jungui will not pay attention at all.
After a series of battles, Chu Jungui's troops became like this. But what's a bit strange is that there is a metal mesh dragged on the top or behind each tank, which is filled with various parts and armor fragments. It doesn't look like an elite armored force at all, but like scavengers returning with a full load.
At this time, night gradually fell, and the sky and earth were illuminated by twinkling lights. Weird colors intertwined with the storm clouds overhead, and the whole world fell silent.
Chu Jungui looked far away, but did not see the pursuers. It seemed that the Round Table Knights finally gave up the pursuit after losing more than 100 tanks one after another.
Chu Jungui actually still has the strength to fight, but the supplies that the remaining tanks can carry have reached their limit, and there is no point in fighting anymore. No matter how well I fight, things won’t fit.
So now it's time to go home and rest.
At this moment, one chariot after another stopped, and each chariot had several heads sticking out, far exceeding the rated number of passengers. This is the crew of the damaged chariot. Because Chu Jungui had a considerable degree of battlefield control, most of them were rescued.
The men craned their necks greedily and stretched their bodies as much as possible. There is no way, the internal space of the tank is too small. The consequence of forcing twice the crew into it is that no one can move and must use their own bodies to adapt to the shape of the cabin.
Looking at his men like this, Chu Jungui silently added a reason for retreat: the soldiers were tired.
In the 35th century, when everyone is wearing advanced armor and everyone's genes are fully optimized, it is really unreasonable to be so exhausted after only two days of fighting.
Chu Jungui felt vaguely that those anti-human designs seemed to have many negative effects.
After a short rest, the troops set off again. This place is only 150 kilometers away from the shadow of doomsday. The soldiers can endure it for a few more hours before they can go home.
In the Knights of the Round Table base, Gamble silently watched the battlefield images. When he saw that the tank in the center of the battlefield was still firing back after receiving several shots in a row, he finally couldn't help but roar: "We don't have any kind of cannon that can penetrate it." That damn armor?!”
Everyone was silent. Finally, a scientist was brave enough to say: "Our main tanks use electromagnetic guns, but they are of no use here. Today's tank guns and armor-piercing projectiles are technology from 200 years ago and are not powerful enough." There’s nothing we can do about it. Besides, who would really install a full meter of armor on a tank?”
Gamble interrupted coldly: "That's what our opponents did."
The scientist was speechless for a moment, and then reluctantly said: "Okay, I know that their design is indeed unexpected. But it is a one-time idea. We can't build a bunch of similar things, right? In that case, we will be sent directly Going to court.”
"How about sending those Mordred out again?" A general suggested cautiously.
"No!" Gan Bo categorically objected, "Those guys are all the treasures of the big shots above. If any one of them dies, they will be worried about me. What's more, five of them were killed in the battle! They can't die any more, so let them stay underground. Stay here and send them all back to me until the next transport ship lands."
A general said: "Each of those guys clings to their own equipment and refuses any adjustment. And then in this damn place, their equipment is almost always having troubles one after another. This can also be blamed on us. ?"
"Okay, okay!" Gamble waved his hand impatiently and said: "About Mordred, I can only complain, and none of you can say anything. Do you understand?"
Only then did everyone remember the legends behind the Mordred Corps, and there was a moment of silence.
Gan* stood up and paced back and forth in the conference room, looking very impatient. After walking around for a few times, he suddenly realized something and said with a wry smile: "Will it be affected even if you hide in the conference room? I really underestimated this damn place. Come on, give me another shot."
A military doctor came over and gave Gamble a shot of sedative. The expression on Gamble's face gradually calmed down and he said: "Have someone check the conference room carefully to see if the isolation layer is broken again. I don't want to not be able to find a place to calmly think."
He stared at the map for a long time and then said: "Should we put the importance of those guys in the Tang Dynasty up front and put them before the beast tide?"
The opponent is still the scientist, "Sir, our most important task here is the beast tide, and the biggest threat comes from the beast tide. In the past three months, the beast tide has evolved six times, and the small evolution has appeared six times. More than 50 times, and we also saw two brand new species. Unless you can get more supplies, including troops, I don't recommend deviating from the main goal. Maybe once or twice, we will We saw an unprecedented huge beast tide. And with all due respect, the defense of our base is really not very good. Once the beast tide breaks through the city wall, it will be catastrophic."
Gamble smiled slightly and said, "Just in time, I can get more supplies."
When Chu Jungui returned to the base, the Ark Project had completed the manufacturing of the base plate and built three-story outer walls at the front and rear.
Several soldiers are turning on the auxiliary power of the armor and working together to move a new grain furnace onto the ark. Four grain furnaces have been installed on the Ark, but judging from the reserved space, at least several more need to be installed.
Le Mans came in a hurry and asked: "Do we really need to install so many power furnaces? 8 units are enough for a small city."
Chu Jungui did not answer directly, but asked: "How is this big guy's protection?"
Le Mans had seen the whole picture and said: "Of course it's good, very good! It's really a bit too good. The outer wall is 2 meters thick, and there are 50 layers of armor nesting. Coupled with the ionization protection layer in the middle, this This kind of defense force has already caught up with the frigate. However, is it necessary for us to develop starship-level protection in the planet?"
Chu Jungui smiled slightly, "2 meters is just the beginning. In the future, we will add more armor and load more weapons. These are all weight. In order to reduce the weight, we have installed so many anti-gravity engines. . And all engines and ionization protection require the same thing, energy. That’s why we have to install so many power furnaces, do you understand?”
"But where do people live?"
Chu Jungui was startled.
