Bolu, who slept until midnight, was woken up by the fierce sound of gunfire, which stopped shortly after the sound. So he didn't bother to get up. All the effort he could put in as a three-legged cat in melee combat was in the early stage. In the real fight, it would be the same with or without him.
But every time he felt sleepy in the second half of the night, there would always be sporadic gunshots piercing the night sky, and he couldn't sleep well all night.
"Is that okay? Why did we fight all night? Can't we beat them to death in one go?"
When it got light, he scratched his hair, finally got up from the temporary bed set up next to the workshop, grabbed the old iron gun, and walked towards the defense line.
When he reached the reconnaissance team's bunker, Tezier was sleeping soundly on a pile of ammunition boxes, and Dyke and several other reconnaissance team members were taking out the brushes with wire brushes.
The machine gun barrels all look familiar.
Now the reconnaissance team plays heavy firepower every day and is almost turning into a firepower reconnaissance team.
"How's it going? Is the lead hanging serious? Is there any malfunction?" Bolu came over and took a look. Everything seemed normal.
"It's not a big problem. It's just that sometimes the ammunition doesn't load properly. You have to push the bolt or press it here. The ejection jam you mentioned is rare." Dyke clicked on the rough ammunition leaking clip.
.
"I have no choice. I'm poor and can't bear to use copper. There's not enough lubricating oil. It's not easy for workers to mass-produce usable ones. Let's use them like this for now. I'll change them to something else to supply ammunition later."
He stretched out his head from the round base and looked at the place about 100 meters ahead. Huge bodies lay scattered on the ground. The ground was indescribable. It was like a slaughtering scene of giant beasts.
"It's a bit miserable. Did something escape?"
"I put it very close before hitting it, and nothing I could see escaped. The big guy was really resistant to hitting it, and it fell apart. It looked like a sieve and it was trying to push outwards. I had to keep replenishing the gun."
"Only the machine gun was used? No other fire was fired?"
"No, only the cannons are firing, and the cannon stations have the most ammunition. I can't bear to use the others."
"The old smoothbore cannon didn't fire new shells?"
"There are only a few rounds of this strange cannonball, so you can't use it at night! You have to load it from the front, which is really troublesome."
"Well, wait until you meet a serious giant about that thing. Anyway, there are only a few old cannons in stock, so let's make do with them first."
Boru turned back and looked at the battlefield ahead.
"Speaking of these things, you are really not reckless. You actually know how to sneak in at night. I didn't believe it when I first heard that these monsters had tactics."
"If it was really a reckless beast, it would have been killed by humans long ago, and it could still occupy such a large area of land? By the way, why is your iron caltrop so insidious?"
"Where is the insidiousness? They are already as big as rice bowls, and they grow so tall. If you can't see them, you can't see them. What can you do if you have to step on them? And I spilled them in front of my house. Who asked them to come here?"
Dyke scratched his head, not knowing how to refute.
"It's easy to use, but how do you clean it up? Is it expensive to build?"
"It's a bargain. It's very easy to make. It's punched by an impact machine. One machine can do more than a dozen per minute. To make this thing, I took up half of my stamping machine. It takes a few minutes to make a frame! When I go back to clean it up, a tractor lifts it.
The magnet will be sucked back after one pass. If you use it, keep using it. If you don't use it, stuff it in the stove. Don't waste it."
At noon, Edith led a team of elf rangers to find Bolu who was in the laboratory. He was very surprised to suddenly see such a team of elf rangers. They were carrying traditional elf longbows, and half of them had
The shotgun he sold last time was still hanging by his leg.
"Here, what is going on? Is something wrong? Or are the insects looking for you again?"
"No, no, these are rangers who volunteered to help you. They came here when they heard that your opponents were giants and their minions."
"Then that's true. They are indeed giants."
"That's fine."
The most ferocious-looking elf answered with an expression that was not common among them: "As long as you kill giants, these damn ugly giants!"
Although I didn’t quite understand it, the shooter who came to my door had no reason to extrapolate: “Welcome!”
Edith pulled Polu aside: "Polu, have you made anything new recently and distributed it to them?"
"Is there something new that can be mixed with it? No, there is no production capacity recently. But there is an experimental product that you can try, maybe it will be unexpectedly suitable. Wait, there are no extremists, right?"
"No! You have asked me several times! There is no such person among the people I brought!"
"Really not?"
"Don't get angry again."
"Okay, okay."
Bolu turned around and took out a twisted water pipe with a tail end that was almost 1.8 meters long from the wooden box on the wall: "You can try this. The control method is similar to a shotgun."
The ranger with a fierce expression just now had a very gentle expression when he didn't mention the giant. After taking the strange water pipe, he weighed it: "It's not heavy, so how are you going to convince me to use this pipe to compare with you?"
A taller stick? After all, this thing is very inconvenient in the woods."
"I wonder how far you can shoot a giant?"
"500 meters!"
"480 meters!" The elves answered in a hurry.
"Then you really should try shooting at 800 meters."
The dubious elves quickly held the water pipe and a pack of heavy bullets, and walked through the safe path left in the direction where the giant would come to look for opportunities. As a result, they came back in two hours, and their first words
Just: "Do you still have this thing?"
"It's gone, what's wrong?" This made Polu very surprised. He caught the prey so quickly?
"Why is this thing so far away? At a distance of 800 meters, I fired the third shot and knocked down a frost giant! Even his horned helmet couldn't save him! I shot through the side of his helmet and took him with me.
Half of his head flew out together with his helmet! The noise was so loud that my ears were still ringing. They immediately found my direction and chased me all the way."
"800 meters? Did you really hit 800 meters with the machine sight? I haven't even calibrated this thing at such a distance."
This is very scary, my friend.
The ranger had a very exciting expression on his face as he ran away after cumming, and he seemed to be still thinking about it.
"By the way, a team led by giants is coming towards you! Our shooting has slowed them down, but they are not very far away. They will definitely arrive today."
"What, the giant team is coming?"
Polu stood up in horror.
"It's okay. I've already told Leonardo that he's at the forefront." Edith also looked at the big gun with envy: "Hurry up and make a few more, I want them too!"
"Let's talk about it later. Let's go to the frontier first."
How could Poru still be in the mood to stay here? He grabbed his iron gun and ran towards the fortresses.
The giants who were inexplicably attacked by despicable flying props on the road, resulting in the loss of a compatriot, clearly showed a violent mood. They drove away human warriors, ogres and countless monsters without stopping.
Pressed up, compared with the tall monsters around them, the humans in the team really looked like children in the crowd.
Thin, helpless, and pitiful.
The black tide passed directly over a strange mound without any pause or rest.
"2000 meters! Reload!"
Leonardo's loud voice rang out from the artillery fort 100 meters away next door. Polu looked over there and seemed to see Leah there, and she waved to herself. There was such a wide queue in front of her.
This is the first time Boru has seen it.
"How many people are here?"
"16 giants, more than 200 ogres, bugbears and human warriors add up to thousands."
"Are they so confident? All their troops went into attack at once?"
Thinking about it again, this is like 16 adults going to a kindergarten to fight. Even if you are a kindergarten affiliated with Shaolin Temple, no matter how you think about it, your confidence is still overwhelming!
"1200 meters! The smoothbore cannon is at full scale! Fire!"
Several rounds of solid bullets were fired at the wall of flesh composed of tall monsters. At this time, the advantages of the monsters' height became apparent. In one round of shooting at the extreme range, half of them hit the target. They are tall and the shots are accurate!
If this round of shooting had been placed on the human queue, it would have probably flown overhead. Bugbears and ogres, who were twice as tall as humans, happily greeted the greetings from Red Mountain with their chests.
