Chapter 253 Mortar
Next, the task of resisting the immortal monsters was fully entrusted to Viscount Jawes. Irving did not even go to the north wall to boost morale to the People's Army.
Because it is no longer needed.
Last winter, the militia was fighting against the immortal monster for the first time. Most militia only had a spear in their hands, and they were very unsure. Irving had to visit the battlefield in person to stabilize the morale of the army.
Now, the People's Army is equipped with powerful weapons and is full of confidence.
Even if the new recruits participated in the war for the first time, under the guidance of the veterans, they were full of confidence in defeating the immortal monsters.
And what is Owen doing?
He is teaching excellent craftsmen such as Geeta and dwarf craftsmen, teaching them about "electricity".
Electricity is not a new thing. There are lightning phenomena in nature, as well as electricity magic, etc., but people have never found a way to use electricity, and they do not understand the relationship between electricity and magnetism.
Teaching knowledge about "electricity" can help craftsmen better understand the design drawings of electrical equipment. After all, with power generation facilities, the production of electrical equipment naturally needs to be promoted.
Of course, the city hall must also popularize the knowledge of electricity use, especially safety knowledge, to the public, which is what to do in the future.
It has been confirmed that light bulbs are the first power equipment to be promoted to the public.
The key material needed to make light bulbs - tungsten, needs to be refined from sedraelite, and Owen has sent someone to mine it.
Now that there is explosives, mining new ore has become easier.
In addition, Winster also reminded that fluorescent sedge ore is often accompanied by natural gold, and geologists often use this feature to find gold ore.
So Irving mentioned this to the miners who used to mine sedraelite and made a solemn promise that if someone discovers a gold mine, there will be a reward.
The Lord's commitment greatly stimulated the miners' enthusiasm for work.
Not long ago, there was a joke.
A person who was absent from work dug a golden ore during his work was absent from work. He thought he had dug a gold mine, and happily held the ore he dug to show off to the miners, which attracted everyone to envy.
The miner's boss came over to check after hearing the news and found that it was just a chalcopylene ore.
Everyone then scattered, and the miner felt extremely embarrassed.
Chopped brass ore does look like gold on the outside, and is often mistaken and nicknamed "fool's gold".
It is also possible to discover copper ore. Bianshu Town now also needs a lot of copper raw materials, so Irving still gave the miner some comfort rewards and encouraged him to continue to work hard.
...
Mystery Forest.
White snow is spread all over the corners of the forest, and thick snow is squeezed on the trees. The slight vibration from afar makes the snow on the branches slide down.
In the direction of the vibration, a lizardman unit was marching.
The military operation to unify the Mystery Forest has lasted for more than two months. The Green Lizard Alliance did not suspend its operations because of the beginning of winter, but instead accelerated the speed of conquest.
The reason for this is that those powerful Asian tribes have entered a state of winter, thinking that there will be no war in winter and that external defense will be relaxed, which is a great opportunity.
Anyway, the Green Lizard Alliance has moved the vulnerable groups to the Bianjun Town, and there are various supplies provided there, so they are not worried about the wintering issue.
At the beginning of the operation, the Green Lizard Alliance conquered several sub-human tribes with powerful weapons, such as the Niutou clan, the Wild Boar clan, the Spotted Leopard clan, etc.
Influenced by this, the Green Lizard Alliance has gained its reputation in the Mystery Forest.
Some weak sub-human tribes tried to take the initiative to surrender to the Green Lizard Alliance and seek asylum.
Since this military operation was to unify the Mystery Forest, the Green Lizard Alliance accepted the request for asylum from those sub-human tribes.
Therefore, the news that the Green Lizard Alliance treated the weak Asian tribe well quickly spread, which attracted many Asian tribes with weak strength to come and surrender, hoping that this would avoid attracting attacks from the lizard people.
The Green Lizard Alliance accepted everything, and its sphere of influence suddenly expanded a lot.
The remaining few powerful sub-human tribes and the sub-human tribes that depend on them are still resisting, which is roughly the same as the predictions before the action begins.
After several conquests, those powerful sub-human tribes were conquered one by one by one by the Green Lizard Alliance.
Now, only the gray wolf clan is left.
The Gray Wolf tribe is a werewolf with gray hair, and it is the strongest on a full moon night.
This lizardman unit is led by the leader of Shensha clan Rusha and the leader of Lizard Claw Clan, and is heading towards the village of Gray Wolf tribe.
At this moment, an agile lizard man who went to investigate ran back and reported that the village of the Gray Wolf tribe was not far ahead.
He ordered the troops to slow down the pace, and Rusha and Keith took several tribe members to secretly investigate the situation in the village.
As expected, the defensive power arranged by the Gray Wolves is very weak, and it seems that they are not aware that the Green Lizard Alliance is still continuing its military operations in the winter.
It is no wonder that once the winter state is entered, the tribe will narrow its scope of activities as much as possible, and it is difficult to obtain timely information from the outside world.
"What should I do next?" Case asked.
"What else can I do? Just attack head-on by being open and upright."
Rusha grinned, turned around and ordered a tribe member, "Come on bringing the new cannon specially made by Lord Lord for us."
Not long after, Rusha and Keith walked out of the woods directly in front of the gate of the Gray Wolf Village.
"Go and report to the patriarch, the Green Lizard Alliance has finally taken action against us."
Seeing these lizard men, the soldiers of the Gray Wolf clan were so scared that they quickly blew the bone horn to convey the message of the enemy's attack to the clan.
The lizardman troops stopped moving forward as soon as they walked out of the woods. Two lizardmen ran to the front of the team, erecting an iron cylinder, two brackets supported in front, and the opening above faced the village gate.
This is a mortar.
Because the Lizardman troops had to fight everywhere and could not carry heavy cannons, Owen ordered Geeta to make this portable mortar for use by the Green Lizard Alliance.
On the watchtower, a gray wolf man asked with confusion, "What are those two lizard men doing?"
"I don't know." Another gray wolf clan member shook his head.
As soon as he finished speaking, the Lizardman sent a shell into the cannon barrel and quickly turned his back to the cannon barrel.
The shell slid into the barrel by its own gravity, and the bottom fire was triggered by the firing needle at the end of the gun.
Bang!
The shell was shot out of Lao Gao and fell along the parabola in the air towards the village gate of the Gray Wolf tribe.
boom!!!
With just one shot, the fragile village gate was blown open, and the nearby watchtower collapsed.
Immediately afterwards, the mortar team followed Rusha's order to fire two more shells and used up all the shells they carried at one time.
In the previous conquest operations, the Lizardman troops were very vulnerable to using mortar shells. Now there is only the last Asian tribe that has not surrendered, and there is no need to save.
"What a terrible weapon this is!"
"Run!"
“The opposite side is too strong!”
After being bombarded by three consecutive mortars, the Gray Wolf tribe was instantly stunned and scared. The soldiers near the gate threw down their weapons and fled into the village.
Seeing this, Rusha waved his hand and ordered: "The whole army will attack! Those who resist stubbornly, kill them, and those who take off their weapons and surrender will not kill them!"
Chapter completed!
