Chapter 1107: The Outsider (22)
The location of the air defense base had been found, but Kasia wasn't sure if it was the only one. To be on the safe side, and having taken some time to check out the remaining locations, at about eight o'clock the next morning, Kasia boarded the long bus back to the town.
"The information on this map needs to be sent out as soon as possible so that those people know about it. During the communication, Kasia reminded Waters, "It's also important to note that the men they hired are always under the watchful eye of the enemy, and they don't do anything because they want to catch bigger prey." Although it has been said, but after repeating it several times, those people should always have some vigilance in their hearts. β
Waters agreed, and he knew the importance and impact of that. Later, there was new news from Delya's side about the Tucini region.
"Dya said that a middle-aged man had come to her in person and told her that after a long period of consideration, the upper echelons had decided to let you be one of the actual three masters. In addition, the benefits due to each year will also be paid regularly, and no deduction will be made. But the premise is to ensure the absolute stability of the Tusinj region, and not to repeat what happened not so long ago. Because I can't contact you, the head of the regiment, Delea agreed to come down for you. β
Kasia nodded, he hadn't been surprised that he had thought of this as he left Tusini in the end. This is deserved, but the means and methods are not very glorious.
"There are also some recent developments about the empire, and I will send them to you later. Waters continued, "In addition, according to your request from the head of the regiment, the evacuation plan for the factory personnel has already been made, and special personnel have been sent to follow up on the relevant preparations. β
"Well, then, you should keep an eye on the movements of the king's forces in order to make the most reasonable judgment. The communication hung up.
"Next for the mercenaries and bounty hunters, right?" Hesley, who was sitting on the side, had already made complete preparations, and the spear that was usually placed was carried by him at this time, and he carried it on his back. The reconnaissance in the mining area was not yet complete, but it was clear that the work at hand was more worthy of Hesley's expectations than that kind of work.
"If you go deeper inward, you need the cooperation of personnel. Nearly every cavern leading to the depths of the mine was completely cordoned off, with three checkpoints set up along the way. This time it wasn't the same as beforeβthe personnel sat in the room next to the passageway, waiting until there was movement before coming out to check. They set up barricades directly, and the personnel sat in the middle of the barricades, relying on fixed time rotations to check. β
"The extra places on the map are the results of these time explorations. Together with the storage base you saw at the beginning, there are three in total, and their structural layout is almost the same. Certainly not all, the more important material should be inside the mine. There is another point to be aware of, the mine has a battery built by the rebels. I don't know where they removed the barrels, the caliber is close to 400 millimeters, and the range of fire covers the entire old mining area without a problem. With the addition of reconnaissance methods, a good hit rate can be guaranteed within a radius of 30 kilometers. β
"Heavy artillery, that's what it should be called. Hesley picked up his pen as he spoke, tracing a few points on the topographical map of the mine drawn by Kasia, "This should also be the aid of two other countries." Fully automatic loading, the entire heavy gun is completely disassembled and assembled, as long as the foundation is laid, it can be deployed and used in a very fast time. β
"Is there any movement on the rebel army?" Cassia looked at Hesley's sketch of the structure of the heavy artillery and estimated his might. It was something that the armor of the tanks alone could not resist, and a single shot in the center of several tanks could definitely send the entire squad away.
"No, these heavy guns were only installed in the nearest time. There, I also saw traces of railroad tracks. It seems that the original intention of the rebel forces was to use the heavy artillery as a mobile rail battery. However, time was limited, so it was fixed, leaving only the structure for further renovation. And the shells needed for these heavy artillery must have a special storage location. It should be in the depths, on the outer rim area, I didn't find it. β

Cronie left the gathering town in the afternoon, and Phinea and their surveillance were temporarily handed over to Occam and Janet. He was going to pick up Patrick in the nearest city, so that he could take care of some tasks on the way. He knew that it was not easy for the team he led to get the support of the headquarters team.
During this time, the general army was divided into several parts by the knightly squire MacDonald, and stationed in several small countries, casting a wide net waiting for the important prey they wanted. But because of the large number of personnel, MacDonald also sent out a lot of squads like Cronney to go to some potential forces to discuss cooperation with them and establish common stations.
This move was not MacDonald's intention, but the intention of the contemporary patriarch of Astus, who was behind him. During the assessment, with the help of the strength of the team led by Zero, the Astus family obtained five knight squire places. If you don't make use of this power, it won't be in line with the style of the big family.
The initial plan was to encroach on this small group of countries with complex networks. The gray area was also the focus, but it was too chaotic, and the Astus family didn't want to send their five knight squires over so quickly. If there is an accident there, nothing can be found.
This time, in addition to Patrick, there were four other people in the company. Four people with different roles and skills to provide Patrick with easy help in the mission.
"If it's someone from other knights' squire team, it should also be a member who participated in the assessment and achieved an excellent ranking. An alloy doped with the ultimate metal is still a spear with a lot of materials, and it is indeed not easy to get hold of ordinary identity. β
In the limousine, Patrick said after listening to Croney's words and reading the descriptions of the rebel captains. But there are still unspoken words, "Just like me." That's what Patrick was trying to say. After the assessment, the Imperial Council spent a lot of time, not only making a detailed description of the assessment, but also analyzing a comprehensive ranking based on the strength of each ferocious creature as a control, using the performance of each surviving assessor.
Because there is almost no hiding one's own strength in the assessment, that comprehensive score ranking has great reference significance. This is also one of the main bases for the institutions of the empire to recruit these examiners.
"That's all there is to it?" asked Patrick, who had thought for a moment, after reading it.
Seeing Croney nodding, Patrick sighed, and said in a comforting tone that he didn't have to worry too much: "Then so be it, no matter how much information there is, if you meet him, it's too late to find out." It's just a bit more troublesome, and it shouldn't be a big problem. β
