[This is the new chinese novel picked up by the Night Owl Walker Translation Release Schedule will 4 times a week and will increase and decrease according to the demand. Hope you enjoy reading]
A bright full moon rises from the horizon. This is the brightest and largest moon in ten years. The blue moonlight illuminates the deep blue sky, and the stars are sparse It feels pitiful.
in the sky there is no cloud, the cold moonlight illuminates the entire cliff, dyeing the entire mountain into a silver world, and the mountain has a boundless loneliness, looking down like a god in the distance The endless plains.
The face of the cliff facing the east looks up to six or seven hundred meters in vertical height. There are occasional cracks on the cliff, which look like claw marks scratched by a cat under the moonlight, so shallow that it is almost negligible.
Such a cliff is extremely difficult to climb, and it is an excellent terrain for the attack of mechanical beasts. On the top of the cliff is an open area with a radius of several hundred meters. In this open area, there are several tall gates. Particle cannon. Looking down from the top of the cliff, the winding road passes through a three-way intersection below the cliff and into the Taihang Mountains. The particle cannon group becomes the guard at the three-way intersection looking up at the sky.
I don’t know how many years the particle cannon has been standing here. The base of the cannon is already covered with rust and grass. The long and straight barrel reflects the faint light under the moonlight, like a huge standing one. The sword pointed directly at the sky. Twenty meters away from the left side of the particle cannon, is a anti-aircraft gun. The barrel of the anti-aircraft gun has a diameter of a bowl, and its bullets are enough to hit an altitude of two kilometers from here. The anti-aircraft gun is rusty like the particle cannon.
Pamir is now lying on the body of an anti-aircraft gun under the moonlight, applying rust-proof paint little by little. An orange emergency light illuminates the anti-aircraft gun he is serving, one shot per person. It seems very harmonious.
Lin Xinyan looked at his watch, and the time pointed to nine o’clock in the evening on June 6, 3139.
He was half lying on a huge rock, and he was a little impatient and said to Pamir: “Pamir, how long will it take you to finish it? I can’t wait, my saliva will flow. That’s it!”
“Soon, very soon!” Pamir replied, but the brush he was holding showed no signs of speeding up.
sighed, Lin Xinyan smiled, Pamir is less than 30 years old, but he is very serious about doing things, serving anti-aircraft guns is more concerned than serving women, this Lin Xinyan ashamed of being inferior.
The anti-aircraft gun is very powerful. He knows the formidable power of that gun. Unfortunately, the gun has no shells now, and it has become a display with no practical use. The lack of shells does not mean that its shells can no longer be made, but the resources are tight and there is not enough material to make shells of this caliber. Therefore, Lin Xinyan feels that Pamir’s manipulation of it is a bit redundant.
I don’t know how many people have lay down and touched the stone. It is very smooth. At this moment, it reflects a layer of azure light under the moonlight. Now there are two glasses of wine, a plate of military luncheon meat, and some bread. Hecai, this is Lin Xinyan and Pamir’s dinner.
“Ai, you said that soon, soon, an hour ago, I believed it, but an hour later you still said that soon, soon. I can’t be fooled by you! If you don’t come again, I But I won’t wait for you!” Lin Xinyan put his head on his arm, threatening seriously. There was a bottle of wine next to him, and the box was written “Special Offer” in two big red letters. It was not easy enough to get this wine. When Pamir brought it over, he was almost shocked, wishing he could go straight up and kiss Pamir. This old man of country M didn’t know what kind of relationship he had, but he got two whole bottles, which is extremely difficult in this age of war.
Sixteen years, the various attacking beasts that fly down from the sky in the machine city have shoveled almost all the plains that humans can cultivate, and the food has become extremely precious and can produce Liquor, only a few countries huddled in the steep mountain range have such extravagant behavior, so Lin Xinyan admires the ability of the old man of M country, but also feels a little uncomfortable, and has a kind of impulse to move around.
“Ai, by the way, you are going back this time, when will you be back next time?” Lin Xinyan asked Pamir looking at Pamir’s busy back.
“Next time? I will probably wait until half a year later, right? Now there are 1305 bases guarding the front line of the Taihang Mountain, and all of our engineers in charge of this area are left with 36. We still have to stay. Several new mechanical engineers are trained in the headquarters hill, and only 28 can be sent out. So, you’d better pray that your artillery will not go wrong! If something goes wrong, I will do it in a short time. If you can’t make it, you can only shoot at the sky.” Pamir speaks innocent* Chinese very fluently, but his tone is very serious.
TL: innocent= beautiful (in this case)
Lin Xinyan thought it was ridiculous, laughed: “Pray? When are you still believing in God? Hey, you people in M country have such advanced technology, and there are still people who believe in God. If there is a God, I I am willing to worship God, and pray that God will end this invisible war soon, so that I can go to the beach to make waves, and go to the south to see the mountains and waters. I don’t need to stay here and follow the mountains. It’s the same as a mountain god. Alas, staying like this, if you don’t become a savage here, you will have a perverted personality!”
Pamir maintained the original speed of painting under his hands: “Prayer is a state of mind, not I really believe in the existence of a Spiritual God! It’s just psychological comfort, how can I really trust God to do what I have to do?”
“But then, when technology develops to an advanced stage , We are gods! Prayer is not for a result, but for a mentality…. Well, in fact, you said that our country is advanced in science and technology. What is the use of advanced technology? What’s the use again? Ok! Finally finished! But your pen is useless.”
Pamir put down the paint bucket and brush, rubbed a handful of dead leaves with his hands, The paint is wiped off. He looked at the brush tip that had been glued into a ball in his hand, and then put it back in the paint bucket.
“What’s the matter here? There are many wolves in the mountains. I have nothing to do with the free time. Grab a few more and make one more. I don’t need to be distressed for a brush.” Lin Xinyan said. He sat up and took out two bowls, cautiously unscrewed the wine bottle, and started pouring the wine.
As soon as the wine came out of the bottle, the aroma immediately overflowed, and the seven or eight people sitting next to the particle cannon immediately stopped chatting, and a pair of eyes stared here immediately. Lin Xinyan slightly startled, then thought for a while, and shouted: “Wanzi, come here and divide this bottle of wine! Hey, a bunch of poor Little Brat, I have never tried to toast and swig.”
“Thank you squad leader!” A thin guy among the seven or eight people immediately jumped over with a smile, picked up the wine bottle and jumped back, feeling very happy.
Pamir also sat down on the boulder and looked at his back said with a smile: “Wanzi is not yet 18 years old, he looks like a child no matter what.” Lin Xinyan also smiled, if any He thought and said: “I’m less than 18 years old, only 16 years old.”
“16 years old? I’m not an adult yet!” Pamir was slightly surprised, “Your country is not so human, why are you even 16 years old now? Children are all sent here?”
“Many people? Hehe, that’s the past tense. No matter how many people there are, they can’t withstand a war that has lasted for nearly 20 years! Just like your country M Now it is not and only the resistance point in the mountain? No one is left, but the war is still going on. Whether you want to fight it or not, you have to fight it. There is no other way. In order to survive, the child also Sure.” Lin Xinyan said, with a lot of bitterness in his tone.
He picked up the poured wine bowl, touched Pamir’s wine bowl lightly, and took a long sip of the wine.
Pamir was already gluttonous, and took a sip of wine. The two sighed and sighed at the same time: “Good wine!”
“Yes, you are What is the squad leader of this base?” Pamir asked.
Lin Xinyan didn’t expect him to ask this question suddenly, he was taken aback for a moment, and after thinking about raising his eyebrows, “The first one!” He answered very proudly. With his answer, Pamir’s eyes lit up and said with a smile: “So it’s you! The monitor who hasn’t changed in eight years!”
“What is me?” Lin Xinyan asked in a puzzled way.
“Our technical department will count all the bases of the Taihang Mountain defense line every ten days. One is to see how much the loss is, and the other is to see how the work schedule for the next ten days will be arranged. Apart from this will also count some other information reported by each engineer, including the monitor’s information. I didn’t look at the details of the report carefully. I only remembered that there was only one place where the monitor was not changed. It turned out to be you!”
Pamir smiled, “The squad leader of the other bases either died or was seriously injured. With more advanced command, anyway, you are not on the front line anymore, so you…you are the only idiot left.”
“Stupid!?” Lin Xinyan almost squeezed his mouth. He choked out of the wine, but thinking of the preciousness of the wine, he just held back, and quickly swallowed the wine, and then there was an impudent cough. As a result, he hardly choked to death. As soon as he raised his head, his eyes were full of suffocation. Tears.
Pamir ignored him, picked up the wine and let the spiciness circulate in his mouth two times, took another sip, and continued: “So, only one will do it in the squad leader’s position. People who have been there for eight years! It’s not easy! When I am going back to the headquarters, I remind the chiefs that it’s time to reward! Otherwise, how can you be worthy of your persistence for so many years?”
” Rewards?” Lin Xinyan finally took his breath away, said with a bitter smile: “Rewards are available every year, but there is nothing practical. Those rewards, it is better to upgrade my weapons, so it is better to avoid them. If you bring me a new particle cannon, I don’t need those awards! Even if you don’t have a weapon, it’s good to have more wine. It’s always a bit hopeful. Do not come, just commend it.”
Pamir glared at Lin Xinyan and said with a bitter smile: “Hey! You wishful thinking. Now it is getting harder and harder to produce steel in the rear. If you want to change to advanced weapons, it is a dream. ! As far as I know, the latest particle cannons are generally difficult to transport to this dangerous place. The production of large transport aircraft has become difficult, so don’t expect to use air force to transport that thing. As for cars, Hey, most likely were wiped out by the mechanical beast troops wandering in the plains. It is even more difficult to send here. However, I recently heard that General Lin’s operation team helped them. They successfully sent a group out, but the base was built. In the valley area…this is worrying. The mechanical beasts can’t get there too much effort.”
“As for you, wait for the pie in the sky!”
“Why, the action team still cares about this?” Lin Xinyan said curiously.
“Well, what the military can’t do is usually assigned tasks to the action team. This is a common practice.”
“Then they can do it?” Lin Xinyan Asked again. He thinks this is a bit exaggerated. They are all human beings. Why can they do it if others can’t?
Pamir looked at him with a wine glass, said with a smile: “Anyway, I know, you can’t.”
Lin Xinyan said “pu”, this time he was finally choked. , And started coughing violently again. And Pamir seemed to be afraid that he would not die, and said: “If you can do it, you can’t get out of this base!”
Finally calm down, Pamir said again: “Actually, in the Underground City base, except for In addition to the action team, there is another department that is very powerful, and it can be handed over to them, but the upper-level military department is very strange. Instead of looking for them, looking for the action team, I don’t know what they think.”
“Which department?” Lin Xinyan asked.
“Hire mercenary group.”
“oh?”
Pamir took a sigh of relief, took another sip from his glass, and said: “Actually hire mercenary It’s not easy for the group. Last time I went to them to do maintenance work, I saw a whole squad of soldiers, none of which Barbara pulled on him was uninjured, and they did not go down the line of fire when they were injured, and their eyes were red. , I’m more excited to see a manipulator than a woman, and even some of what you mean to snatch me. I really don’t understand how many things can’t fall to them with such a strong team.”
“This me I know.” Lin Xinyan said.
“You know? You have been drinking northwest wind on the mountain for eight years, do you know a fart?” Pamir said with a smile.
“Naturally, I listened to these little ghosts.” Lin Xinyan pointed to the group of kids who were making noisy on the platform under Zhiyan. “They like to talk to me when they are free.”
“Then what did they say? Let’s listen to it?”
Lin Xinyan said, “Because Their leader!”
Pamir was surprised, and then nodded: “Well, almost. People at the base seem to say that.”
“But, why?” Lin Xinyan Asked rhetorically.
This time, Pamir was amused, said with a smile: “Huh? You don’t know this? Didn’t you say that your kids would tell you, why don’t you know this? “
Lin Xinyan shook the head ignorantly. He picked up the wine, took another sip, and looked at Pamir expectantly.
“He…is a sissy.”
Lin Xinyan did not come up in a breath, and was choked again.
After drinking for three rounds, Lin Xinyan was slightly drunk, half-squinting his eyes and letting the breeze brush his face. The wind in early summer is very soft, like a woman’s white hands, very comfortable. Pamir was lying on the boulder, looking at the moon leisurely, still muttering to himself without a match. It seemed that he had been holding back for a long time and couldn’t find a suitable person to confide in. When he met Lin Xinyan, he threw it in like a corn on the cob. In the fire, blooming everywhere.
“…Actually, the action group and the mercenary group simply couldn’t urinate in the same pot. After all, they weren’t born by a mother. They were all thorns in the dark. You stab me and I stab you. They didn’t feel it themselves. Everyone outside could see clearly. No, some time ago, I heard that the military department was going to investigate a leader of the mercenary, saying that there was malfeasance. The legal department of the military department took action, but let the mercenary be hired. The group was blocked, and the military department directly assassinated in a rage, and sent the action team out. Guess what? The action team’s people just arrived and saw the head hanging on the door of his office! Hiring a mercenary group is not easy to provoke, your action group wants to get my generals, I will tell you directly, and see what you do! Look, this is a trick? No matter if the generals committed something, just This method is enough to quell all those who want to have trouble with hiring mercenary group!… It’s so fierce that I won’t let it go!”
“Although General Lin of the action group is from the Underground City base The fourth in command, but everyone secretly said that he doesn’t want to see him. He doesn’t want to see him, but he is very good at camping. With his father’s relationship, he manages properly and can slowly climb without support. To be the fourth place in the military department, that is a great one!…Alas, for such a person, you are not convinced, you have good resources, you work hard, and you will use the reverse assistance. Who will go up if he doesn’t go up?”
“Someone said that this man is a playboy, and half of the women in the military department were held in his arms. Some people concluded that people who go up with women are most likely to be vicious and merciless, so He only firmly controlled the action group in his own hands. But I have seen him, he looks good on the surface, there is nothing vicious and merciless…so this rumor is a bit strange.”
Lin Xinyan coldly snorted, said: “Some people know their faces and don’t know their hearts.”
Pamir nodded: “Well, that’s the truth. So everyone is watching to see if the action team and the mercenary group will What kind of spark came out.”
“Why? They are going to have a civil war now?”
Pamir clicked his lips and said: “The civil war is not enough, it’s just a taste It’s very thick.”
While speaking, the iron gate hidden in the pile of rocks suddenly opened. A soldier rushed out and shouted towards Lin Xinyan: “Squad leader! There is a situation!” Lin Xinyan looked into the distance, and some black spots faintly appeared on the horizon in the distance.
The house among the stones is a radar console. When the mechanical attack beasts appear nearby, they can be seen on the radar.
Lin Xinyan immediately soaked up for eight to nine minutes. A shivered stood up and shouted to the soldiers who were still dividing the liquor: “Attention, everyone! Everyone! An enemy is coming!”
“Pamir, you go to the radar control room, it’s safer there!” Lin Xinyan exhorted Pamir, and hurried to a particle cannon. For the current war between humans and Machine City, the lives of technicians are much more precious than ordinary soldiers.
Pamir looked at the black shadow flickering in the distance, but did not move. Instead, he acted immediately under his hand, pour the unfinished wine into the wine bottle and quickly box them. The life of a technician is not comparable to a few bottles of wine.
The entire base suddenly came to life under the moonlight, the particle cannon bottom wall zhi zhi rang loudly, the barrel was lowered, and it aimed and shot at the dark shadow flying in the distance. Pamir held the wine bottle in his arms and looked up with interest at the flying shadows in the distance. The number of shadows is not too much. It seems that this attack is also a sneak attack, and the scale is not large. For the high-energy particle cannon, destroying them is only a matter of a few shells. Pamir has a certain victory against Lin Xinyan. Confidence.
The shell of the high-energy particle cannon is a hollow shell. When it is excited, the ion arc inside will be activated, and it will be ejected instantly. When it encounters something, the shell of the shell will burst, and the ion arc inside will be Released, released a huge amount of energy, and basically everything you encounter will be blown to pieces. This thing is very suitable for the air power of Machine City. It is precisely because of this that the air power of Machine City has decreased in recent years, and the number of mechanical beasts has increased.
Pamir was thinking, his eyes lit up, four bright blue particles lased out, and flew straight towards the dark shadows in the distance. In less than a second, four floating shadows In the sky, a bright firework burst out, all split up and in pieces, followed by flames and shining star-shaped fragments slowly falling to the dark earth.
“Adjust the aim and conduct a second wave attack!” Lin Xinyan commanded loudly. There was another zhi zhi grid rotation, the particle cannon aimed at the dark shadow in the distance, and the second wave attack occurred.
In the sky, four bright flames ignited again, and four mechanical attack beasts in flight were blown to pieces.
The mechanical attack beast in flight has a wingspan of about three meters. The whole body is made of metal. Even the wings are made of an unknown mixed metal, which is similar to an eagle. As far as the mechanical attack beasts for aerial attacks are concerned, as long as there are anti-aircraft guns, they basically fight one by one. So as long as most flying mechanical attack beasts don’t let it get close, they can’t fall down, they seem to be good targets for practice targets.
So in Lin Xinyan’s view, after a few shells, this sneak attack can be completely resolved.
Looking in the direction of the particle cannon attack, there are only four or five flying mechanical attack beasts left. As long as two rounds of air firing, it is estimated that they will almost be wiped out. And the flying mechanical beast flew extremely fast, just for a moment, it seemed that it was only two hundred meters away from the hundreds of meters high cliff. For these flights, this distance was only a matter of a few words. Lin Xinyan said with a smile: “He was grandfather, courting death. Pamir, wait, we will continue!”
Looking back, Pamir did not go to the radar control room, but, Quickly ran to the middle of the pile of stones on the cliff top mountain, opened another iron door and hurriedly took out six guns that could shoot in a row. The rest area and warehouse are located in the middle of the pile of stones. Such piles of stones exist in almost every base of the cliff. Generally, four stones are gathered together to form a crossing passage in the middle, which is extremely effective against in the sky attacks. This guy wins, knowing to keep a back.
If the mechanical beasts arrive, naturally *** is the best equipment to deal with them, and Pamir is indeed preparing for the failure of air interception.
“Superfluous!” Lin Xinyan said with a smile.
The barrel of the particle cannon flashed brightly, and four groups of Fireballs exploded again in the air. Lin Xinyan’s mouth is upturned, and the proud color exhibits one’s feelings in one’s speech. For eight years, he has been able to stay here, and he relied on his team’s shooting percentage to a large extent. This cliff has a geographical advantage, and mechanical beasts basically don’t come. As long as the air power is well guarded, everything is naturally worry-free.
“There is only one left, I will let you back and forth!” Lin Xinyan quickly adjusted the front sight to the last mechanical attack beast, ready to come to a beautiful finishing touch, so that it is hard to come. Pamir opened his eyes when he went to his base and showed him off.
Suddenly, without waiting for Lin Xinyan to press the launch button, the target in the scope suddenly shattered into five or six pieces of large and small!
Lin Xinyan immediately jumped in his heart. What the hell is this? Will it split?
He shouted anxiously: “Give me your attention! Wanzi, you hit the lower one, we hit the upper one!”
The four particle cannons on the base are not in one On the plane, the rear turret is slightly higher than the front, so that it is convenient to shoot at the same time, and the cross of the bullets will not cause visual obstruction. Generally, Lin Xinyan said that everyone will attack the corresponding target according to their position, so as to ensure that the target is hit, and the target is not scattered.
“Squad leader! This distance is too close!” Wanzi’s voice was very nervous. For a target that is only a hundred meters away and is still approaching quickly, everyone is not too sure to break it. And Pamir almost screamed and rushed to the fort all around, throwing *** to the ground: “Prepare for close contact!” Then he hurried to the pile of stones again. ***The weight is not light. It is his limit to take six at a time. You can’t take much at a time, so you can only run a few more times.
The brilliance of the particle cannon flashed again, and four blooming Fireballs appeared less than 100 meters away from the cliff. It’s a pity that there are still two fragments, there is really no way to hit them, it’s too close!
“Go down!” Lin Xinyan shouted. With two sky-splitting sounds of “Woo”, two flying machinery attacking the beast fragments crashed to the ground. Due to the extremely fast landing speed, the fragments directly submerged into the cracks in the gravel on the ground.
After landing, the fragments inserted into the ground by themselves. The flame at the end of the fragments went out, but a blue light of anxiety was lit up.
Pamir just ran out of the stone house. He didn’t even know that Machine City shells had been pierced on the ground of the base. Everyone started to dodge, only he was running towards the particle cannon. Come, there are six *** in his hand. In the middle of the journey, the blue rays of light gradually dimmed in the flickering.
“Pamir! Get down!” Lin Xinyan shouted.
The two loud noises of “hong” were almost at the same time. Two flying machinery attacked the beast fragments and exploded two mushroom clouds with a radius of 10 meters. The two shock bursts erupted from the explosion point. The shock wave and The heat assaults the senses, the rubble has become a bullet, and wu wu whizzes over everyone’s heads.
Lin Xinyan’s voice is too late.
