"Speaker, as a member of Parliament, I have the obligation to remind you. Your actions are dragging the parliament into hell!" Xiuya shook her head and said, "I don't want to admit it, but at this time, I find that zero is right. The war must end, and the internal friction between mankind is too serious."
Oglock looked at her coldly. After a long time, he went to his desk and rang the silver bell. The door opened and the old housekeeper came in. Looking at oglock and Xiuya, the housekeeper bowed his head and sighed.
"Take major general Xiuya to prison No. 1. No one is allowed to release her without my approval!" oglock said in a deep voice: "you can reflect on yourself there!"
No restrictions were imposed, and Xiuya was not even handcuffed. However, the order was given by oglock, and no one dared to disobey it, including Xiuya himself. So she left behind the housekeeper in silence. On the corridor outside the study, the speaker's new lover looked at Xiuya with a mocking face and said, "look, isn't this the majestic major general Xiuya just now? How can she turn into a lost dog? Stay in prison, or let me send some fierce men to serve the major general?"
Xiuya didn't even have the strength to repay her, but left with the housekeeper in silence. After they left, the woman's proud laughter rang in the corridor. Oglock's gentle voice sounded in the study: "Houston, can you come in?"
The woman hurried into the study. Oglock smiled and gently slid his hand over her face: "you are so beautiful, Houston..."
"My beauty only blooms for you..." the woman said charming.
"Unfortunately, you are also so stupid." oglock suddenly pressed her cheek and pulled back, turning the woman's face behind her!
Panic and doubt fixed on Houston's face at the same time. After pushing her body to the ground, oglock picked up the handkerchief next to her and wiped his hand: "my daughter, are you a bed tool qualified to teach me a lesson? What's the use of you, a fool who can't even figure out where his own position is."
Finally, throw the handkerchief on the body. Oglock strode out of the study.
Another morning.
General Morgan woke up in the morning light outside the window. After washing and eating breakfast, he put on proper clothes and was ready to go out. Not long ago, Phoenix was under a great threat. The army led by Douglas, the leader of the hall of heroes, once looked at Phoenix from a distance, and finally the confrontation ended. But after the last experience, the dark Council dare not take it lightly.
Phoenix has now become an important supply point for the front line of the parliament army. The materials transported from the Parliament are stored in Phoenix and then supplied to the front line on demand. If Phoenix is taken away, the troops fighting on the front will suffer heavy losses. Therefore, the front-line commander Hart was personally ordered to reappoint general Morgan, a former master who was very familiar with everything in Phoenix.
As a result, some old men in the Phoenix army were reappointed. They took part in the defense of the city, which refreshed general Morgan, who had been idle for more than a year. Moreover, lain, who cooperates with him, can be called an excellent and gentle young man. Although he is the main defender of Phoenix, he takes great care of general Morgan's face on many occasions, which makes the general happy and doesn't care about the tough measures of the ogudus family before.
Out of the mansion, a car had been waiting for a long time. General Morgan got on the car and the driver drove to the military command post in Phoenix.
Phoenix was built in a dam in the old times. Of course, now the dam has accumulated water, and the towering dam is the natural city wall. The original Phoenix City had already arranged enough fire points on the city wall. After the last incident, the parliamentary army transported heavy artillery and ground missile launching system, which forcibly upgraded the defense force of Phoenix City by several levels.
The only shortage is the number of soldiers. Restrained by the front-line war, the Parliament can't invest too many soldiers in Phoenix. Under lain's command, there was only one blood riding squadron and two infantry battalions, with a total of more than 1000 people. During the period when general Morgan was appointed to take office, the officers and soldiers of the original Phoenix City, coupled with the recently recruited and formed militia, now the total strength of Phoenix is 3000.
In the past, let alone Phoenix, it is enough to protect the affiliated wilderness base. Moreover, there is also a private army of the ogudus family "falling angel" stationed in the army. The most powerful of these 20 or so people also have level 6 strength, and the leader is a level 8 expert. If Phoenix had such strength before, it would have merged all the neighboring cities.
As for now, this number of troops and capable people are still thin. Fortunately, no similar thing has happened since the last incident, but we can't place our hope on the enemy. Therefore, Hart made other arrangements between the front line and Phoenix.
There are two infantry battalions stationed on the only way to Phoenix. If they encounter a small group of troops, they will be wiped out in one fell swoop. If they encounter a large army, they also have time to give an alarm, so that Hart and Phoenix can be prepared.
But even so, there are obviously many more soldiers on the wall of Phoenix during the day and night.
Considering the shortage of troops, the parliamentary army and Phoenix's own soldiers have adopted a mixed establishment, which is conducive to the commander's dispatching arrangement. However, such an arrangement is inevitable. That stems from the friction between the two different systems. The parliamentary army despises these wild armies that are not much better than the wilderness refugees, and the soldiers in Phoenix will not like these strong outsiders.
Although they generally obey the orders and arrangements of their superiors, in private, the soldiers of the two sides have invisible boundaries, making it impossible to cooperate in many links. Just like now, they are also responsible for the rotation during the day, but the soldiers on both sides of Parliament and Phoenix are on one side, which seems a little out of place.
Several Phoenix soldiers hid in a hidden corner and smoked. One of the beards looked in the direction of the parliamentary soldiers and said, "when will those pretending bastards leave!"
"Forget it, Maggie. As long as the war is not over, they will stay here. No, or they won't go after the war is over. In short, that's what big people should worry about." a short soldier shook his head.
"NAR is right. We just need to make money. As for other things, it's not our problem."
Bearded Maggie shook his head and inadvertently looked at the sky outside the city: "Hey, what's that?"
The two colleagues followed Markey's eyes, and a dark thing was moving towards this side in the distant wilderness.
"Is it the cloud?" said the soldier named NAR.
Markey shook his head and said, "no way. The clouds can't move so fast. Telescope, which of you has a telescope?"
"I have." NAR quickly took out his tactical telescope and looked at it. He suddenly took a breath: "monster, it's a monster!"
"What monster?"
"Flying monster." NAR handed the telescope to Markey.
The beard was also startled. In the telescope, he saw some humanoid life with bat wings. On their pale bodies, a prismatic spar was embedded in their chest. These monsters seem to be carrying something in their hands and are approaching quickly. Suddenly, the line of sight became dark, and then a faint yellow light flashed. Maggie suddenly felt powerless and heard the shouting of his colleagues behind him.
But Maggie couldn't hear them clearly anyway.
Of course he couldn't hear clearly. Anyone's head was suddenly cut off, and most of them couldn't keep hearing. In front of NAR's two soldiers, a terrible creature fell from the sky. It has a humanoid body, a bat like head, covered with black fine scales, and the black flame like fog escapes from under those scales. The monster held a short knife condensed by the yellow flame in both hands. Just now, one of them cut Maggie's head like cheese.
Then the light of the knife flashed again. NAR and another soldier remained in a stiff standing position, but their heads flew high. After killing the three people easily with the dim yellow blade, the mobilek rose to the sky, and the dim yellow blade returned to lacquer black flame gas. With mobilek's hands closed, the black flame formed a fireball in the palm. Throw the fireball at the city wall, and the fireball explodes into a black curtain of fire within 30 meters.
In the curtain of fire, no matter people, concrete walls or machine guns and heavy guns, they all melt quietly!
When they heard the sound of explosion and alarm, lein and Morgan who rushed out of the command post looked up and saw that fireballs continued to burst on the dike wall in the distance, and then the high-temperature fire curtain of molten gold fossils was spread out, bringing everything into the list of melting and burning.
A total of six mobileks thundered up the embankment wall of Phoenix. They raided from high altitude in this era of lack of air units. The soldiers on the wall obviously didn't pay much attention to the sky, so they succeeded in one fell swoop. Their targets were basically fire points on the city wall. As the fire points were knocked down, a large area of Drake arrived. These gray bat people skimmed over the walls that had fallen into the sea of fire, flew directly into Phoenix, and then dropped something towards areas such as barracks and ammunition depots in Phoenix.
That's a heavy artillery shell!
However, these powerful shells were not fired from the fort, but were transported and thrown by Drake. These drakes were like bombers. Wherever they flew, the explosion occurred. The continuous explosion set off a sea of fire. The barracks and ammunition depots in Phoenix fell into the sea of fire. Lain's face was distorted, and general Morgan was stunned.
After Drake made several rounds in Phoenix, at least a third of the area has become a sea of fire and ruins. Sporadic counterattacks were carried out in the city. The attack of these flying creatures came so suddenly that the army in Phoenix had no time to respond in time. By the time they started to fight back, Drake had begun to retreat, while the high-level mobilek threw a faint yellow melt to intercept the pursuers and further expand the damage.
When lein drove his car crazy near the city wall, there was a continuous sound of shock. Cracks appeared on the embankment wall on the left side of the city gate. With the aggravation of the cracks, the gray and gray sand began to pour down from the cracks. In the end, with a loud bang, the dike wall knocked out a gap three meters long and wide!
The sharp ash was flying, and in the misty dust, a tall figure suddenly crowded in. When it appeared in lein's eyes, even the ninth Knight did not dilate his pupils. It was a giant. Its body nearly four meters high could only squeeze in through the gap. It was covered with red thick armor. The sharp edges and thorns extending from the armor made people feel faint pain.
The golden lines on the body are lit one by one, and the energy crystal embedded in the body is light flowing. Dragging the ferocious double moon axe, the momentum on the giant told lain that this guy has ten levels of strength! When another giant dragged in the same huge hammer, lain's back began to get cold. When the whole five giants appeared under the wall, lain's eyes were full of despair.
Strangely, these powerful giants were not in a hurry to attack. Even though lein's back was full of soldiers and fallen angels, the giants did not take any action. It seems to them that these people, including lain, are not worth mentioning.
Suddenly the giants spread to both sides, and a figure came in outside the gap in their exposed wall. When the man entered Phoenix, the five giants knelt on one knee on both sides and bowed their heads to show the most thorough respect to the comers.
"It's you..." lein cried out when he saw the appearance of the visitor.
"It's me," said zero calmly, striding towards lein. The giant behind him stood up at the same time, closed to zero and lined up. Outside the gap, dark blue giants with size and strength drilled in, but their number made lain fall into the ice.
Dozens of dark blue giants quietly gathered behind zero like mechanical decay, forming a terrible momentum, which made lain and the soldiers behind him cold. Lein's eyes finally fell on zero and said, "I thought you were in a neutral position."
"Originally, but I changed my mind, because your speaker gave me an answer that I had to do." zero Shen said in a voice: "so do you choose to surrender or decide to fight to the death?"
"Do I have a choice?" Rhine smiled bitterly. "You can kill me, but can you let my people go. You can unload their equipment and drive them out of the city."
"I won't kill you, but similarly, I won't let these soldiers leave," zero said.
Lein asked, "what are you going to do with them?"
"First of all, you and those capable people must be imprisoned. I will let these big guys take care of you. If you are smart enough, don't try to escape. As for these soldiers, I don't want to send more troops to your brother in vain, so they must stay. Look, I have work arrangements for them."
Lein shook his head and said, "even if you take Phoenix, Hart will call soon."
"He will fight, so the first thing he has to kill is these soldiers. Then I will give them the necessary weapons, so Hart may hesitate before giving orders." zero said coldly.
"I can't believe that such orders come from your mouth. In my comments on you, most of the words I see are related to moderation. It turns out that you also have a ruthless side."
Zero said frankly: "Lord rein, this is a war, not a game. I think every commander, including your brother Hart, will understand. Only conditions are required, we must protect the lives of our troops to the greatest extent, even if we have to bear some moral stains. Besides, war has never been said to be just. When I decided to join the war, I was ready to bear sin and blood."
"Obviously, you're not ready for that."
Zero stepped back and said, "then, please give orders."
Lein nodded, took a deep breath and turned to the humanitarians behind him: "everyone, this is an unequal battle. In order to avoid unnecessary casualties, in the name of the supreme commander of Phoenix, I would like to order you to remove your equipment on the spot... We surrender!"
At the beginning, the soldiers of Phoenix and Parliament were still struggling. After all, it was not easy to surrender. But when the army of dawn came from the other end of the wilderness, they felt wise for their surrender. Under the surprise attack of two high-level aliens, zero beat Phoenix with lightning, and then the army of dawn took over the city defense.
Originally, all the soldiers in Phoenix were disarmed and temporarily put under centralized care. When zero met general Morgan and saw that he was still a mercenary but now he is a overlord, Morgan deeply felt that he was old. The two had a secret talk in the city master's house all morning. After zero left, Morgan was responsible for comforting the residents of Phoenix.
Morgan is still thankful, because zero has made it clear that he will not drag down the residents of Phoenix. As long as they behave themselves, Phoenix will basically not suffer too much loss.
After leaving the city hall, zero went to the prison again. The prison in Phoenix is not big, so it's a little crowded to squeeze into 20 or 30 capable people such as lain. The prison has become the residence of Drake and augma giants. Even if lain and they plan to escape, they can't do it. Therefore, they are not limited by any ability, and lain depends on the strength of zero, So there was no idea of escaping from prison.
Lain was assigned to a cell alone. When zero came, he was lying in bed in a daze. Zero opened the unlocked cell and went in. Lain said, "you may not believe it, but I feel good now. It's ironic to be a prisoner without thinking about anything."
