Be the savior from Frostpunk

Chapter 181 Plague War

The gunfire poured in again, and the New London Dreadnought has entered a state of maintenance.

The last batch of steam hub shells will be used for the next city wall defense switch, to temporarily clear out a no-man's land to delay time.

And that will be half an hour later.

It was only an hour since the tide of corpses reached the base.

The number of infected groups that have been eliminated cannot even be counted, and it can vaguely reach more than one million.

The number of remaining infected people is conservatively estimated to be over 1 million.

This war will still go on for a long time.

For some big-hearted people, they just need to hide behind the wall, close their eyes, and this painful day will pass.

The Astartes gradually returned to the city wall, they just looked down at everything below the city without saying anything.

And in their eyes, the mutant soldiers, who looked weaker than children, were not quite calm now.

There is a possibility of inducing hidden dangers in the process of these variant operations, and some measures must be taken to ensure the obedience to the superior.

Their bodies will resolutely execute various orders, but the already unstable consciousness in their minds may go crazy.

As a result, their emotions will be a little unstable, and it is reflected in the game that there will be various curses when controlling the mutant ranger.

In the real world in front of my eyes, there are all kinds of chaotic roars.

Just like ordinary people who need to shout to cover up their fear or excitement, these mutant soldiers still have not escaped the category of humans.

Their roars were even more extreme, mixed with various unsightly words.

It is not so intense when dealing with ordinary tasks, but as humans who are truly facing the tide of corpses, the huge pressure still makes them almost collapse.

Fortunately, these mutant soldiers are still fighting. Just like in the game, these mutants will not run away, but will stick to their orders until they die.

"Too low-end body modification technology, human beings, if you want, I have new technology that can be handed over to you."

Typhons laughed loudly, in a sense, he stretched out the olive branch of his loving father, testing Li Jianghao.

But the latter obviously didn't hear what was behind the words, and the conversation between the two Primarchs in his mind had been completely obliterated.

In addition to being a cloud hammer, Li Jianghao was completely unaware that there was a subspace hazard trying to contact him.

As the saying goes, if you believe, there is, if you don't believe, there is nothing.

In the world of Warhammer, this may not be possible, but in this universe that has not been polluted, this law can still be established.

After all, almost all intelligent life in this universe does not have the concept of subspace, so it is impossible to talk about being bewitched by those evil gods.

"After the next artillery strike, the first city wall must be prepared to give up. We have no way to hold on without artillery support, otherwise we will be breached sooner or later. We must start preparations from now on."

Thorne came from behind. He did not participate in the epidemic prevention station of the first city wall, but kept checking the various defense facilities of the second city wall.

By the way, deal with those extremely lucky banshees who can leap in.

Li Jianghao understood that this was a defense plan that had been planned long ago, and this plague war could not be defended by relying only on the first city wall.

Even in the original game, it is necessary to build multiple walls in key places for defense.

Under his order, the reserve team began to clear the space between the two city walls, and placed the corresponding traps and equipment according to the original plan.

By the way, the weapons and equipment that have been replaced on one city wall will be directly transferred to the city wall behind, forming a more powerful firepower network.

The engineers responsible for the mode conversion of the shock tower must be left until the end, and the direction of the electromagnetic coil needs to be handled by them, and the World Purification Army will be responsible for protection.

Li Jianghao himself will be the penultimate group to leave the first city wall under the protection of Thorne and the tyrant.

He wouldn't be stubborn enough to stay behind until the end, it didn't make much sense, but it added danger to himself.

At the same time, in order to prevent the loss of the first city wall, causing the tide of corpses to flow in different directions.

They will detonate a type of explosive in this area of ​​the city wall to fix several gaps and let the tide of corpses move in a fixed direction.

Long before the real battle started, the affairs officers almost exhausted their hair thinking about various possible combat strategies to prevent various unexpected situations from happening.

Of course, Li Jianghao himself also avoided those regrettable situations based on the only film and novel routines.Happened to myself, made various moves.

An hour later, after another maintenance of weapons and equipment, the artillery fire on the city wall never resumed.

The corpse tide will not have any doubts because of this abnormality, they will only keep moving forward.

The prepared explosives started the countdown, and at the same time, after the engineers switched the attack mode of the shock tower, they retreated to the second city wall under the protection of the World Cleansing Plague Army.

Before the explosives were activated, the infected people who climbed up the city walls began to spread to both sides almost instantly.

They vividly demonstrate what is called a sea of ​​people with the bodies that have been human beings.

Before the front end of the tide of corpses got out of control, the explosives started a huge vibration, which even made the residents in the city tremble.

After all, they were able to endure the sound of artillery fire before.Those artillery fires were slaughtering corpses.

But when these city wall defense facilities related to various buildings began to collapse, they could no longer calm themselves down.

What is about to spread is that the front end collapses instantly, along the preset gap, stepping on their companions, and the already mutilated corpses poured into the front of the second city wall.

The mine trap continued to function, and at the same time, the rotating blade of the first city wall began to fully retreat, got stuck between the two walls, and then began to roll.

But that's the last time they come into play, because there's no room left for further use.

After destroying most of the corpses that had just entered the gap, the rotating blades stopped turning because there were too many body debris stuck on them.

And this period of time was enough for the firepower facilities on the second city wall to start operating, and the firepower of the hot weapons poured down again.

The most difficult defense part of this plague war has officially begun.

New London had run out of any reserves of shells to use.

Only this lonely fortress was left to fight against the last 1000 million infected people.

Li Jianghao looked at the engineers who were still sitting on the ground and comforted them.

At least they don't need to participate in all the next battles.

The second city wall is about five meters higher than the first. The maximum gap between the two walls is 120 meters, and the narrowest part is only 70 meters. The gap is twice as much.
