1566 Just Took a Nap
In the summer, the sky dawns relatively early, around 4:40, and before 5 o'clock, the sky begins to turn white.
The night reluctantly pulls away, and the light is about to return to the earth!
One Marillo soldier yawned and pushed his butt off the soft couch.
He stood up and stood on the roof of the five-story building where he had been responsible for vigil and observation the night before.
Of course, there are actually many people like him, all over the rooftops of high-rise buildings of all sizes.
Standing high can see further, and they can detect ground troops and flying troops coming from the enemy earlier.
In this way, they can notify others earlier and avoid major losses.
But he fell asleep last night, not because he didn't want to stick to his job and position, but because he was too sleepy!
On summer nights, the summer wind blows from outside the city. Even the strongest people can't help but doze off after lying on the sofa for a while and blowing the summer wind.
He just looked at it, thinking that he just closed his eyes and rested for a while, and ended up falling asleep until now.
Fortunately, he woke up at the right time and it wasn't too late.
Although the people on shift would inevitably scold him if they saw him sleeping, that was all.
Resistance on the part of the Mariroans is now less resolute.
In particular, the Pengeos began to leave, which also made more Mariro people realize this.
There is no point in persisting!
So sometimes even if someone is caught doing some lazy behavior, others won't say anything.
In another hour, the changing of the guard will come up at six o'clock.
He lit a cigarette and sat on the sofa with his arms crossed, legs crossed.
He inhaled the slightly disgusting, yet irresistible smoke into his lungs, and the satisfaction brought by nicotine and more chemicals caused his brain to begin to secrete dopamine.
He began to feel a touch of happiness, which was so precious during the war!
He squinted his eyes slightly, shook his feet, and thought about something that he was not sure about.
At this moment, with the summer breeze blowing, everything is so comfortable!
Just when he lowered his head to pick up the teacup, he looked at the teacups placed on a few stones nearby with some surprise.
Tin tea cup.
Iron tea cups are less likely to break. In places like Marillo, cups made of porcelain, pottery, or other better materials are easy to be robbed, and you are also prone to injury.
And those cups are not easy to preserve. On the contrary, these iron cups made of hollowed wood are easier to preserve.
However, there are relatively few wood, because it is easy to blacken and produce mold.
He looked down at the uneven teacup, watching the water in the teacup constantly vibrate, creating layers of dense ripples.
At this time, there was only one question in his mind: What happened?
This was the first time he saw this phenomenon. The water in the cup kept making ripples, as if something invisible was touching it, causing it to continue to produce these ripples.
But around...he looked around, but there was nothing. His hand held the outer edge of the teacup, which didn't seem to quiet the ripples in the teacup.
He didn't know what was going on. Just when he was thinking about such important knowledge, the first ray of light came to the sky in Marillo!
The light from the east was like a sharp sword, tearing the sky into two parts, and the world on the ground also became brighter.
The dust raised in the distance was finally clearly visible to people's naked eyes. The soldiers in charge slowly opened their mouths and stared blankly at the military vehicles speeding towards the city!
For the Marillo people, no matter what kind of military equipment it is, as long as it can run, it must be a military vehicle!
These military vehicles are different from those in the past. I heard friends from other places say that these are tanks!
Just...why can they run so fast?
The soldier was stunned for a moment, then sounded the alarm.
The piercing siren rang over the entire city. The soldiers who had slept with their clothes on and holding their guns woke up and began to subconsciously and instinctively find their positions.
It seems that everyone is looking for their own position, but they run in a mess and are actually not able to gather well!
It's just a waste of time!
Everyone is wearing their own clothes, some people's clothes are green, some people's clothes are red...
There is no unified style, let alone military ranks. Most people are unclear about their position and cannot find their own team. They can only wander around the camp like headless flies.
Originally, the Pengeo people suggested that the president purchase some military uniforms, so that he could establish an intuitive sense of hierarchy, and the concept of hierarchy played a very special role in the team.
In some battles, the existence of superiors and subordinates is very necessary, especially when everyone has differences of opinion, the final decision should be based on the thoughts of the person with the highest military rank.
Otherwise, no one can convince anyone, and it may eventually lead to some terrible consequences.

Unfortunately, Officer Pengeo's proposal was rejected by the President on the grounds that if he had money to buy clothes for the warlords and soldiers, it would be better to buy more weapons and ammunition.
At least weapons and ammunition can protect everyone while killing the enemy, but military uniforms cannot do this.
And ordinary soldiers would rather have advanced weapons and equipment than good-looking clothes!
This plan was shelved, and the entire army did not seem to feel any pity. On the contrary, they were full of love for those new weapons.
Just when people were holding their guns and wondering where they should stand, the sound of shelling outside the city suddenly gave the camp a moment of peace!
People looked towards the sky outside the city in horror, and soon the sound of shelling spread throughout the city!
The Federals did not plan to attack here forcefully before because there were many obstacles placed around the city. At the same time, there was an artillery position behind the city, close to the city line!
A large number of anti-aircraft weapons and troops were deployed in and around the city to ensure that the artillery positions would not fall.
If the Federation wants to attack by force, the first thing it will face is the bombardment of these artillery!
When the number of artillery reaches a certain level, the covering firepower is enough to chill the heart of any challenger.
Coupled with the large number of anti-aircraft guns, there was no fierce battle here before deciding whether to attack here or go around it!
At most, they only occasionally fire a few shots and fire a few rounds.
This is Marillo's last "dignity". Even if the air strike succeeds, it will be difficult to end the battle in a short time. Instead, he will be tied up and trapped in a tug-of-war.
Hundreds of thousands of people are deployed here, it is not an easy bone to chew!
The people of Marillo also proudly said that this would be the decisive battleground to defend the last dignity of Marillo, and made bold claims that if the Federation were to launch an attack from here, it would inevitably suffer the greatest losses in history!
But today, war broke out!
The sudden outbreak of war was unexpected by everyone, including Ryan, who sat in the tank and controlled the machine gun and turned into a machine gunner.
Rumors circulating in the army previously said that the main force would detour from the flanks and bypass this area, but they did not expect that today they would suddenly launch an attack.
Sitting in the bumpy tank, my ears were filled with the roar of the powerful diesel engine.
As the gunner asked the loader to pull the rope, Ryan's ears became even harder to hear!
Although he is sitting now, his head is buzzing and he can't hear anything in his ears, only tinnitus and some noise!
These tanks brought him a very fresh experience. It was the first time that he knew that tanks could run so fast!
It was also the first time I discovered that when a large number of tanks gather together, they can have such terrifying power!
The city in front of me seems to have become fragile!
When these tanks bypassed the outskirts of the city and hit the artillery positions directly from the side, the president was awakened from his sleep by a phone call.
Sweat broke out on his forehead, he had another nightmare.
In the nightmare, the Federals used his wife and children to make a fuss, forcing him to kneel down and surrender.
He didn't know how to choose, between the ideals of several generations and the lives of his wife and children.
While he hesitated, the Confederates killed his wife and children and mailed their heads to themselves!
He was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat. Fortunately, all this was just a nightmare!
He looked up at the sky outside the window, then at the wall clock, and quickly stood up and picked up the phone.
The next second, he stood up suddenly. He didn't even have time to put on his coat, and rushed to the office in just his pajamas!
The Federals used a brand-new tactic, using a force that could be said to be unmatched, to directly tear apart their defense line and rush into the artillery position from the flank!
This news is so terrible, it has surpassed the nightmare the president had just had!
Once the artillery position is lost, it will no longer be able to restrict the federal army's advancement. If some more anti-aircraft guns are lost, the ultimate defense line built with a lot of money will collapse!
And next, there is the almost undefended capital!
Only at this moment can you feel the cruelty that hits your face!
Only at this moment will the weakness in human nature be exposed!
President, I'm starting to get scared!
Maybe he was determined to live and die with this country, but at this moment, he was still afraid!
He originally thought that this line of defense could last at least two to three months or more, so that more supplies could be transported. He did not expect that such a strong line of defense would be penetrated!
Some of the remaining Pengeo officers also knew about this, and they were equally shocked.
In their view, if the Federation wants to capture the city in front, it must pay a heavy price!
But now... they don't seem to have paid any price, which is really unbelievable.
Just when the president convened an emergency meeting, Ryan went crazy!
The torrent of steel is unstoppable!
