Chapter 612: The Insect Tide is Coming
When he just learned that the guy who came to Machuan City who was almost inseparable from the outcasts was Wu Song, the leader of the new generation of the empire, Qiao Jielu's heart was excited for a long time, although this guy is not very capable and his strength is also very disabled (only a thirteenth-level warrior), but he has a common characteristic with most of the Blood Feather people is that he admires the strong very much, and Wu Song is precisely one of the people that Qiao Jielu admires the most.
Wu Song won the second place in the Thirty-Three Clans Pilgrimage Competition, leading many of the new generation of elites of the empire to fight their way out of the dangerous Void Shenwu Emperor's Mausoleum and get back a lot of rare resources for the empire, and then singled out Zhao Jiegang, the powerful elder of the Zhao family, in the imperial city, and went to the largest space-time wormhole with his own strength and returned safely, these brilliant deeds are enough to put Wu Song on the altar, in Qiao Jielu's eyes, Wu Song has become a position that is not lower than their Qiao family's head Qiao Zhentang, Therefore, after learning that Wu Song had come to his own city, Qiao Jielu immediately became friends.
At this time, there should be some days before the peak of the mutant insect tide, Qiao Jielu planned to use the time of these few days to treat Wu Song well, he designed a series of programs for Wu Song, but when he saw that Wu Song didn't seem to be interested in eating and drinking, but was very interested in the eldest lady of the Mu family, Qiao Jielu immediately knew what he should do.
In the following days, Qiao Jielu sent Wu Song and Mu Rongfu into a compound on the grounds that Wu Song and Mu Rongfu should be closer to the Mu family, and then said that if the two of them wanted to eat anything, they could just give instructions to the people waiting outside the compound, and the people would send what they wanted to eat directly in, and for several days, Qiao Jielu did not disturb Wu Song and Mu Rongfu's time for any reason, which couldn't help but make Wu Song look at Qiao Jielu differently, and at the same time also had a great good impression.
In the next three days, under the deliberate arrangement of Qiao Jielu, Wu Song and Miss Mu spent an extremely comfortable time, and the two of them were like newlyweds Yan'er in addition to eating, almost all the time they stuck together, of course, with Mu Rongfu's big grinning personality, there will basically not be too many sticky actions, the so-called glue-like paint, more often than not, it is just a strategy implemented by Comrade Xiao Wu in order to rub oil ~ cannon.
The two of them tossed in the small courtyard for three days, and not long after eating at noon on the fourth day, there was a sudden knock on the door outside the courtyard, and the two of them were lying in bed to take a nap, and when they heard the continuous knocking on the door, they quickly got up from the bed, ran over to open the door, and saw a panting attendant standing outside the door, Wu Song asked carefully, it turned out that as he guessed, the peak of the mutant insect dynasty had arrived.
In fact, in the past few days, except for Wu Song and Mu Rongfu, the lives of the two people in Machuan City are very nourishing, everyone else is extremely busy, and the city defense army of Machuan City and Lu Jie and others have repaired the already dilapidated city of Machuan City again, although it has also achieved some results, but when the climax of the mutant insect tide really comes, there is still a tense atmosphere in the city.
"Wu Song, Miss Mu. You're coming! The two men followed the servants up the city wall, and Jojero immediately greeted them with a smile, although the expression of this guy was smiling, but his facial muscles were obviously trembling, and people could see at a glance that he was in an extremely nervous state at this time.
"Don't be nervous." Wu Song smiled and patted Qiao Jielu on the shoulder and said, "Since I am in this city, I can assure you that Machuan City will definitely not be breached, you should now hurry up and tell me briefly what you know." ”
"Okay... Good. Qiao Jielu nodded, then took a few deep breaths, and the person seemed to be a lot calmer, and then pursed his mouth and said, "The people from the periphery have just sent back the news that the mutant insect tide has been surging towards our Machuan City from the west, and looking at the speed of the insect tide, it is estimated that it will be about another twenty minutes or so to rush to our Machuan City." ”
"Twenty minutes to go, so a simple setup should be enough." Wu Song nodded, as soon as he heard that the mutant insect tide would take twenty minutes to come over, he was relieved, this guy pondered for a moment, and then looked at Qiao Jielu and said, "Qiao City Lord, this time Lu Jie and the Wu Song they transported should be enough, I want to know how the city defense has been arranged in the past few days, and how many people are guarding the city, what strength are they are, can you tell me a little bit about them?" ”
"This... Let's let General Zhang, who is in charge of the layout of the city defense, tell you. Qiao Jielu hesitated slightly, this guy is two hundred and five in this regard, so the problems of city defense and personnel are left to his subordinates to do, and when asked by Wu Song, he didn't know what level the capital was arranged now, so he could only ask his subordinates to come and tell Wu Song.
The general surnamed Zhang walked over and nodded to Wu Song first, and then said very calmly, "The city defense of Machuan City should be said to be not very optimistic, although we are trying our best to repair the city in the past few days, but the damage to the city before is too serious, and recently there are small groups of mutant insects to harass us every day, which also affects our repair speed."
Among the four city walls, the northeast two sides are repaired quite well, but the southwest two sides are seriously damaged before, and we can only do our best to repair some parts that must be blocked, the defense ability of the city wall itself is still very inadequate, and the damage to large city defense facilities such as city defense turrets and arrow towers on both sides of the southwest is also relatively serious, and there is no way to repair it in a short time, and the combat effectiveness of these large city defense facilities is now only three to four percent under normal conditions.
In terms of personnel, we originally had more than 50,000 defenders and mercenaries in the city, and there were only more than 10,000 people left after last year's mutant insect disaster, and then ~ after a year of recruitment, some of the lost mercenaries were adapted to make up a total of 30,000 people, when the mutant insect tide broke out and invaded the city, we lost half of our manpower, and only more than 15,000 people were left to participate in the battle, and then counting the mercenaries who entered the city with you this time and several other mercenary teams that have come one after another in recent days, At this stage, the total number of people who can participate in the battle in our city is 17,000, of course, the combat strength of the mercenaries who came to support is significantly higher than that of our city defenders, and according to the combat effectiveness of our city defenders, the actual combat strength should be able to exceed the combat effectiveness of 20,000 city defenders. ”
