Chapter 783 Robinia Cleanup Mission

After setting up the stab-proof wall, everyone finally breathed a sigh of relief and told each other a few words. The lords who did not participate in the clean-up task took the employees who came to help back to their own territories. They should watch the night and rest when they should.

Xia Qing, Shi Du and Yu Shou were all assigned the task of clearing out the aggressive black locust trees. They were the three main force in cutting down the aggressive black locust trees.

Huo Lei and Qi Fu also stayed, guarding the anti-thorn wall with Zhao Ze, and fixing problems in time. Of course, Tang Huai, who loved to join in the fun, also stayed.

During the rainy season, aggressive evolution plants grow very rapidly. The locust trees are densely covered with thorns, and the locust pods between the branches and leaves are as long as fingers. They are expected to mature and fall off in a few hours, so the removal work must be done against the clock. .

After confirming that everyone had withdrawn from the attack range of Robinia pseudoacacia, Tan Junjie immediately ordered, "Yuan Rui shoots, other personnel pay attention to concealment."

"Copy that." Yuan Rui aimed at the trunk of the black locust tree, which was more than 20 centimeters thick, and fired a bullet.

The bullet penetrated the bark and phloem layer of the locust tree and was nailed to the wooden pole of the locust tree. The large locust tree more than 20 meters high trembled, and then countless sharp thorns more than 20 centimeters long grew out of the tree and shot out in all directions, making people's scalp numb.

"Puff! Puff!..." The tree thorns shot towards the five-meter-high stab-proof wall 180 meters away.

When the sharp tip of the tree thorn instantly penetrated the three layers of rainproof cloth, Zhao Ze, who was wearing level three outdoor protective clothing and holding a shield, felt his heart freeze: It's over, it's all over...

Qi Fu patted him on the shoulder, "It's okay, just blocked it."

The top of the tree thorn is indeed very sharp and sharp, but the tail end is very thick. After penetrating three layers of rainproof cloth, only the three to five centimeters long thorn tip was exposed, and it failed to penetrate the entire thorn-proof wall.

Zhao Ze opened his eyes and burst into tears when he saw this scene.

No matter which direction the tree thorns fly, they eventually land on the ground and become embedded in the soil. The root system of the aggressive black locust in the shallow soil was pricked by its own thorns, triggering the attack mode again, and another wave of thorns separated from the body and launched an attack.

Xia Qing reported to Tan Junjie based on the depth of the bullet's entry into the tree trunk, "The degree of hardness evolution is medium. Shi Du, Yu Shou and I can cut the tree in three minutes."

"Copy that." Tan Junjie ordered Yuan Rui to fire a second bullet, and the black locust attacked again. This time the thorns shot were obviously less than last time, but the new thorns were growing at a speed visible to the naked eye. As long as the tree is not destroyed Cut it off and the attack won't stop.

"The tree-cutting team is moving forward, please pay attention to protection."

"Copy that." Xia Qing stood up, opened his iron umbrella, held his shield against the tree thorn, and rushed over. The tree thorns hit her shield and iron umbrella, making a sharp and harsh collision sound, which made Xia Qing's ears buzz.

After arriving at the tree, Xia Qing threw away his shield and slashed with his sword. The tree was attacked and the thorns were shot out more violently.

"Ah!" Tang Huai couldn't help but exclaimed when he saw a tree thorn heading straight for Xia Qing's arm, which was exposed outside the iron umbrella while wielding a knife, "Xia..."

Before he could finish shouting, he saw the tree thorn stuck in Xia Qing's arm rolling to the ground. Tang Huai changed his mind, "Holy shit, it's indeed a special protective suit, awesome!"

At this time, Shi Du and Yu Shou rushed to the tree under the protection of their respective teams of platoon members holding up shields. The platoon members held up their shields to block the tree thorns, and they and Xia Qing chopped down the tree together.

Huo Lei used his binoculars to look at the depth of Xia Qing's cuts with each cut, and breathed a sigh of relief, "Stay steady, I'll definitely bring him down in three minutes."

Zhao Ze, who was shocked by this scene, gave Huo Lei a thumbs up, "Uncle Huo's skills are superb, and Sister Qing's black knife is really easy to use."

Tang Huai immediately followed, "Of course, Uncle Huo made the same black knife for me and it's very easy to use."

Huo Lei laughed, "The main reason is that Xia Qing is so powerful. Her knife weighs 25 kilograms. Only power evolvers of Xia Qing's level can exert the power of the knife."

"25 kilograms?! The machete that Uncle Huo just helped me hit only weighs 3 kilograms." Zhao Ze exclaimed.

Tang Huai shut his mouth because he felt quite tired from using the 4.5-pound long black knife that Huo Lei made for him.

Qi Fu, who is also a power evolver, was jealous, "Uncle Huo, after you finish this work, can you give me a set of knives?"

Zhao Ze quickly followed, "Uncle Huo, I want one too."

Huo Lei is only 48 this year, only nine years older than Zhao Ze and 13 years older than Qi Fu, but his skills in making cold weapons and farm tools are superb, so everyone follows Xia Qing and respects him as "uncle".

Huo Lei nodded, "Okay, but I don't have any new material ore here. If you want to make one with the same material as Xia Qing, you have to find the ore yourself."

These two people are not Tang Huai, and they do not have the persistence to get the same style as Xia Qing. "I don't choose the material, as long as it is sharp and easy to use."

Qi Fu asked again, "Uncle Huo, can you take the iron umbrella that Xia Qing wears? I'd like to order two."

The iron umbrella is placed on the head, which makes one feel very safe.

"Okay, that's very simple."

Tang Huai immediately followed, "I want three iron umbrellas."

He, his brother, and his sister each have one.

Tan Junjie's shout interrupted the communication between the three, "The black locust is about to be chopped down. The third team is preparing."

Huo Lei, Qi Fu, Zhao Ze and others who belonged to the third group immediately picked up shovels. After Xia Qing, Shi Du and Yu Shou pushed down the tree and dragged it away from the root area, they rushed up to dig the soil and dig up the tree. root.

"The third group..."

Before Tan Junjie issued an order, Tang Huai, who was inexperienced and participated in the mission for the first time, rushed out with a shovel. Huo Lei grabbed his collar by the back of his neck and cursed, "Didn't you see that the tree thorns were still shooting out? Are you fucking going to die?"

"Everyone, pay attention. You can only set out after hearing the order. You can't act privately." Team Tan was also shocked when he saw Tang Huai rushing out, and shouted.

Tang Huai stared with his eyes wide open, and was scared to sweat.

When the fallen tree stopped spraying thorns, Tan Junjie ordered, "Team Three, start the action."

Huo Lei then let go of Tang Huai and rushed over with Zhao Ze and others holding shovels.

More people makes the work easier. Everyone quickly dug out the main roots of the big tree, and the acacia cleaning task was completed.

With Zhao Ze's thousands of thanks, the task teams returned to their positions. Xia Qing drove her off-road vehicle to patrol the No. 9 territory and eliminate the crisis.

Zhao Ze issued an announcement in the lord channel, "The aggressive acacia trees in Territory No. 4 have been cleared. Thank you all for your help with supplies and manpower. The anti-thorn wall blocked the tree thorns and my mung bean shed was saved."

Kuang Qingwei replied, "It's good that it's cleared. It's not raining now, so everyone should take this opportunity to get some sleep."

Yue Haiying reminded, "Arrange night patrol personnel to clear the risks in the territory in time."

Huo Lei, who followed Tang Huai into Territory No. 2, sighed, "It's much harder to spend the rainy season in the territory than in the safe zone. , I haven't been so tired and nervous for several years. "

Tang Huai reminded, "Uncle Huo, the safe zone was bombed this time, and it's more tense than here. Preliminary statistics show that more than 2,300 people have died, and there are thousands of injured. I don't know if they can survive."

Hearing this heavy number, Huo Lei's steps were heavy, "The phone can't be reached. I don't know if my shop was bombed."

Fortunately, he called several apprentices in the store to the territory to help before the bombing. Even if the shop was bombed, the people were still there.

Tang Huai knew that Huo Lei's iron shop was in the West Outer City, so he could only comfort him, "I heard that the most powerful one is the North Outer City, and the West Outer City should be okay."

"I hope it's okay, I'm leaving." Huo Lei left the south gate of the No. 2 territory and passed through the passage to enter his No. 11 territory. (End of this chapter)
