Chapter 150 Dawn
(PS: Restore normal two updates, no at night)
After arranging the affairs of Shanhai Town, Ouyang Shuo still did not hear the world announcement. In other words, the Free Town in the United States either failed to advance or was still fighting fiercely with the bandits.
Ouyang Shuo found Shi Wansui and Zhao Sihu and asked them to strengthen night patrols. Then he couldn't wait to go offline to learn about the latest situation in Liberty Town.
After going offline, Ouyang Shuo logged directly into the game forum and clicked into the US area.
What made Ouyang Shuo uneasy was that there was no news of the failure of the promotion of Liberty Town in Liberty Town on the forum, which means that Liberty Town is still fighting hard.
As expected, Jack kept his promise and opened a live post on the forum. It was just for the need to keep it confidential. The so-called live broadcast only has text and pictures broadcasts, and there is no live video.
Gaia is indeed powerful. Jack's live broadcast post actually has real-time translations in various languages. Although the federal government has been established for a while, the two mainstream languages, English and Chinese, still coexist.
After Ouyang Shuo chose Chinese, he began to learn about the details of the city guarding of Liberty Town.
The post first introduced some basic situations of Liberty Town, and also included a overlooking view of Liberty Town. From the aerial view, it can be clearly seen that the walls of Liberty Town adopt a design similar to ancient European prisms.
The so-called prism is essentially transforming the city block from a convex polygon to a concave polygon. This improvement allows the attacking party to expose more than one prism surface at any point in attacking the castle, and the defense can use crossfire to perform multiple strikes.
Just from the design of the city wall, you can see the extraordinary significance of Liberty Town.
There were 2,500 soldiers in the defense of Free Town. The number of bandits attacked was only 6,500, which was 300 more than the number of bandits attacking Bangalore Town. Just in terms of the number of troops between the enemy and us, Free Town has an advantage over the previously failed Bangalore Town.
The secret weapon of Free Town also officially debuted in this battle. It turned out to be a musket used in the 16th century in Europe. The specific name should be called a trigger-firing mesh gun. This musket is a smoothbore gun, a bore-loading drug, and an effective shooting distance of 50 to 80 meters.
Compared with later rifles, the trigger-firing convex gun has very big defects. Because soldiers must divide them into six steps when loading the barrel and preparing to shoot, which is quite cumbersome and time-consuming and cannot adopt a concealed posture. The barrel caliber is too large, the gun body is long and heavy, the shooting distance is short, and the shooting accuracy is poor. When soldiers raise their guns to shoot in a standing position, they sometimes have to use a support pole to lift the butt.
Although there are such defects, compared with cold weapons, the trigger-firing convex gun is still considered a powerful new weapon.
Only with the two trump cards of Bastion and Musket, Jack Dawson seemed so confident.
Unfortunately, the cunning and powerful bandits still slapped Jack heavily in the face. Of course, the system is not a fool. Each area will be different from history, and the technology tree will also be different.
Jack thought his musket was unique, but he did not expect that the attacking bandits had already formed cavalry equipped with muskets.
So, the balance of the war was rebalanced. The evenly matched sides fought fiercely from 8 am to 5 pm, but the winner was still not decided.
The system stipulates that as long as the territory can be held for twelve hours, even if the bandits are not repelled, the system will automatically determine the defense's victory.
In other words, Liberty Town can successfully advance if it holds for another three hours.
Unfortunately, the bandits are still better at their skills. After more than ten hours of continuous testing, the bandits finally found the blind spot of the defense of Liberty Town. This blind spot is not a problem in the design of the city wall, but a defensive blind spot caused by the hasty preparation of Liberty Town, which is considered to be caused by insufficient troops.
The advantages of the brink are naturally very obvious. Similarly, in order to fully utilize the advantages of the brink, more defensive troops than ordinary city walls must be deployed. Obviously, the number of troops in Liberty Town is still somewhat insufficient compared to the brink.
It’s not that Jack didn’t know his defensive loopholes, but he was just thinking that such a hidden loophole would not be able to discover it.
Unfortunately, the cunning of the bandits is far beyond Jack's imagination.
The bandit leader is also full of courage. Once he catches his opponent's weakness, he will decisively concentrate his troops to break through without leaving any chance to breathe.
Finally, before it became dark, the bandits captured Liberty Town and declared that Liberty Town's dream of competing for the world's number one county was officially broken.
Ouyang Shuo was both grateful and surprised when he quit the forum. Fortunately, he finally saw the dawn of Shanhai Town winning the honor of the world's number one county. The obstacles blocking Shanhai Town no longer exist.
What was surprising was that with such powerful strength in Liberty Town, it still could not stop the attack of the bandits. Can Shanhai Town tomorrow really succeed?! I think my own careful preparations may be disappointed. Judging from the two defensive battles between Bangalore Town and Liberty Town, the bandits are too cunning and do not play according to common sense.
After calming down, Ouyang Shuo walked out of the bedroom and started a routine running.
When Ouyang Shuo returned home with breakfast, Sun Xiaoyue just finished washing up. Yesterday, the battle in Liberty Town was so sensational that even professional players like Xiaoyue had heard of it.
Sun Xiaoyue walked to the dining table, picked up a fried dough stick, took a bite, and said gossip: "I heard that Liberty Town in the United States failed to advance yesterday."
Ouyang Shuo nodded absent-mindedly and then ate his own buns.
"Hey, I'm talking to you, are you listening?" Xiaoyue was a little dissatisfied with Ouyang Shuo's perfunctory.
Ouyang Shuo put his head on like a chicken pecking at rice, "Listen, listen."
"Hmph, no sincerity at all."
Ouyang Shuo raised his head helplessly and said, "Sister, the affairs of the United States have nothing to do with us. What do you do if you are fucking that heart? If you fail, you will fail."
"Aren't you also a lord? You don't even care about this. Is your territory level too low and there is still a distance between the boss from promotion?" Sun Xiaoyue said sarcastically without being outdone.
"Yes, yes, yes, there is still a distance of 108,000 miles." Ouyang Shuo decided to surrender.
"You." Sun Xiaoyue was so angry that she didn't know what to say.
Fortunately, Bing'er just got up at this time. The little girl was sleepy and muttered in a daze: "Bad brother, what are you talking about? You've woken up Bing'er."
Ouyang Shuo shook his head and said, "Baby, it's time to get up, hurry up and wash up. After breakfast, my brother will take you to school."
"Yeah." The little girl nodded and walked into the bathroom.
After such a fuss, Ouyang Shuo and Sun Xiaoyue stopped talking about the topic just now and each had breakfast silently.
Walking on the way to school, Bing'er suddenly held Ouyang Shuo's hand and said crisply: "Brother, did you have a fight with Sister Xiaoyue in the morning?"
Ouyang Shuo was stunned. This girl was still so cute and sensible. He touched the little girl's head and said dotingly: "It's okay, I just talked a few words. After I went back, my brother apologized to Sister Xiaoyue, okay?"
"Yeah." The little girl immediately became happy, "I'm a boy, so I should be more generous."
Ouyang Shuo lit her forehead and said with a smile: "You, a little man is big."
The little girl laughed and didn't say anything. A warm current flowed in Ouyang Shuo's heart inadvertently. No royal masterpiece can match Bing'er's smile.
Ouyang Shuo suddenly squatted down and said to Bing'er: "Come on, brother, carry you to school."
"Ah," Bing'er immediately became excited. The little girl jumped in place, lying firmly on Ouyang Shuo's back like an octopus, with her delicate little face full of happiness.
When Ouyang Shuo came back from school, he saw Sun Xiaoyue lying comfortably on the sofa, looking through a fashion magazine. Because he was at home, Xiaoyue was wearing a casual dress. She wore a white loose T-shirt with cartoon patterns on her upper body and a pair of ultra-short jeans on her lower body. She showed her slender, white and tender long legs in front of Ouyang Shuo without reservation.
Ouyang Shuo had watched such a scene for many times, and had become immune. He asked casually: "There was no class this morning?"
Sun Xiaoyue was obviously not very interested and said lazily: "Well, there is only one class in the afternoon today."
"I'm sorry for what happened in the morning." Ouyang Shuo took the initiative to admit his mistake.
Sun Xiaoyue was stunned, finally raised her head, looked at Ouyang Shuo in surprise, her face warmed up instantly, and she said, "Forget it, forgive you. Look at you being absent-minded, have you encountered something difficult?"
Ouyang Shuo waved his hand and said, "It's nothing, don't worry, I will handle it."
Sun Xiaoyue curled her lips, but she didn't ask questions. She returned to fashion magazines and muttered, "Macho."
Ouyang Shuo did not care about Xiaoyue's grumbling, and returned to his room and began to practice the "Yellow Emperor's Internal Classic".
At noon, in order to express his apology, Ouyang Shuo specially cooked a few good dishes. After Sun Xiaoyue finished eating, she looked satisfied and her resentment in the morning completely dissipated and went back to school to attend class.
In the evening, Bing'er came home from school and saw that his brother and sister Xiaoyue were reunited, so he was very happy. During the meal, the little girl specially brought the bowl to Ouyang Shuo and sat down next to her brother.
Ouyang Shuo naturally saw through Bing'er's little thoughts at a glance. The little girl expressed silent support for her brother's generousness during the day.
Ouyang Shuo shook his head funny, picked up a piece of ribs, put them in Bing'er's bowl, and said with a smile: "Baby, eat more."
"Well, thank you brother." The little girl said sweetly.
The tacit understanding between the brother and sister is really envious of others.
