Chapter 462: Discussion on Mysticism (Update 981)

After Wang Zhong finished speaking, he looked at the local tribal leader in the light of the setting sun which was about to disappear.

He discovered that the chief was wearing a very sophisticated mechanical watch, which was obviously not something that could be produced in a backward country like Baras.

"Hello," the leader said, "I am Bahram, the leader of the local tribe. Thank you, General, for coming to save us from this difficult time."

Wang Zhong: "How did they save us from danger? Could it be that the royal family of Baras is more... anthropomorphic?"

Bahram's wrinkled face twitched, as if all the wrinkles were about to be squeezed together at once: "Baras is a poor country, but the royal family lives a rich life. Our tribe has accepted the secular concept, and we want to live a life like the royal family."

Living a normal life is just a simple sentence, and it is indeed a bit empty, but to Wang Zhong, this simple desire is enough to be a motive for resistance.

But he immediately thought that the United Kingdom did not want to liberate the tribal people, and their proposal was to change the king.

Wang Zhong looked at Colonel Benjamin of the United Kingdom.

The colonel smiled and said, "I know what you are thinking. Don't worry, the brother we are going to nominate has the people in mind and is ready for reform. That is why Patriarch Belinsky agreed to this candidate."

Wang Zhong: "I hope so. But now I am skeptical about the accuracy of your intelligence. Today we encountered the Plosson regular army. If it weren't for the 393rd Marine Infantry Brigade that landed first and our anti-tank artillery unit, which is also a well-tested force, we would have been driven into the sea!"

If the landing troops were the poorly trained 8000-man infantry divisions with serious officer shortages, the Plossons would be % able to push the landing troops back into the sea.

Colonel Benjamin: "This level of intelligence error is acceptable in intelligence science. Considering the transportation capacity, there won't be too many Proshens in Barras.

"And you see, they used our Crusader tanks and Matildas instead of the long-barreled Panzer IV and the ones they were more proficient in using..."

Wang Zhong pointed at the collapsed temple and said, "And the 88mm cannon! If it weren't for the fact that the frontal armor of the vortex itself was extremely reliable, my elite tank soldiers would have suffered losses!"

"It's not certain yet whether it's an 88mm gun." Colonel Benjamin laughed.

Wang Zhong: "I am 88% sure that it is an 88mm cannon! Do you think I will call all high-powered artillery mm cannons like the United States Army does?"

And all powerful tanks are called Tiger, but this sentence is too advanced and Wang Zhong did not say it.

Colonel Benjamin happily mocked the United States with Wang Zhong: "Hahahaha, you also know that on the Mamluk front, the American advance team really mistook all the enemy's long-barreled artillery for 88mm guns!"

It seems to be a fixed plot for the United States Army to misidentify the enemy, whether it is the navy or the army.

The Ame Navy once identified the Nowaki-class destroyer that it encountered by chance as a Jintsu-class light cruiser or a Myoko-class heavy cruiser, and the identification results for each ship in the entire fleet were different.

Wang Zhong shook his head and continued to say to Bahram: “We need to advance to the capital as quickly as possible, and we need you to provide a guide.”

Bahram patted his chest and said, "Leave it to us. Our best hunters and shepherds will serve you. We can even guarantee that each company will have a guide!"

"Thank you." Wang Zhong thought about it and felt like there was nothing more to say, so he decided to end the conversation.

At this time Bahram said: "General Rokossov, you must be careful of the witchcraft of the king's great wizard, be very careful!"

Wang Zhong and his officers exchanged a glance, then asked, "What kind of witchcraft? Could it be that the great wizard can also summon the plague?"

Then it was thwarted by penicillin.

Bahram: "They can raise the dead and call down armies from Hell!"

Wang Zhong frowned, turned around and shouted, "Popov! Come here!"

Popov came over quickly: "What's the matter?"

"Call Su Fang and Ye Caimenko. Oh, and call Miss Witch from the United Kingdom. Have them come quickly. I need some experts in mysterious matters."

Popov nodded, turned around and gave orders. Soon Sufang, Yetsemenko, Emilia and Katyusha, who came along for some unknown reason, stood in front of Wang Zhong.

Wang Zhong: "This Bahram said that the king's great wizard can resurrect the dead and summon the army of hell. What do you think?"

Emilia spoke first: "The captured dead may be a stimulant that makes the soldiers fearless and fierce, and their expressions are ferocious. After being injured, they will act as if nothing happened, and it looks like the dead have been resurrected. When the United Kingdom and the Zulu went to war, I saw something similar. "Of course, this stimulant may have a little mysterious element, but it can basically be regarded as a very strong stimulant."

After Emilia finished speaking, Su Fang added: "Summoning the army from Hell, they might be dressed in strange clothes, poisoning the water, and putting mushrooms in our food."

Wang Zhong: "Forget about the first one, it still has some fantasy elements, but the mushrooms in the latter one are too cheap, right?"

So the people of Yunnan are all magicians who can summon the army of hell? After eating mushrooms, dogs can talk, see the dead, and there are little green people dancing everywhere.

Su Fang shrugged. "In Ant, the church systematically studied these legends in Ant. The monster in the forest was actually someone who saw a strange-looking tree branch as something else when walking at night. The witch in the wilderness's witchcraft was caused by eating too many mushrooms."

Wang Zhong had a feeling that the crew of "Approaching Science" had torn through space and caught up with him.

Su Fang: "In fact, the druid magic of summoning fog is considered reliable among the supernatural things. After all, the fog really appeared."

Wang Zhong: "But those researchers were unable to summon fog outside the Nanant Grassland."

"Yes." Su Fang nodded.

Emilia agreed: "Most of the so-called mysteries are just like this."

Wang Zhong: "What about your extrasensory perception?"

Emilia: "It's hard to explain to you. I can sense the enemy's position. For example, if an enemy dives at my six o'clock position, I feel like I'm being electrocuted by static electricity."

Wang Zhong originally thought that Emilia's ability was like the third-person perspective in War Thunder, but now listening to her description it seems... more like a new type of person in Gundam?
Able to sense danger and even hostile people.

But Wang Zhong was still a little worried, so he continued to ask: "Miss Emilia, are you... really from the United Kingdom?"

"Of course." Emilia said unhappily, "Why do you ask that? Don't you trust my resume?"

It didn't look like she was lying at all, but Wang Zhong lacked the ability to recognize beautiful women's lies and couldn't tell the truth from the false.

So Wang Zhong changed the question: "Is your situation common among witches?"

"It's quite common among witches, but witches themselves are not common."

Wang Zhong confirmed again: "How many witches are there now?"

"There are a hundred of them in public, but I don't know how many there are in secret. This is the top secret of the United Kingdom and is well protected by the king's tailors."

Wang Zhong thought, if all the 100 witches were time travelers, all kinds of earth-shaking changes would have happened long ago. But the fact was that the only person Wang Zhong speculated to be his fellow villager was Saint Andrew.

Emilia’s ability is not like Wang Zhong’s plug-in. Maybe this plug-in is a unique “benefit” for time travelers.

While Wang Zhong was thinking, little Katyusha couldn't help asking, "Who is this big sister who smells like a foreigner?"

“Big sister?” Emilia was shocked. “I’m only twenty years old!”

Katyusha: "This has nothing to do with age! So who are you? Why do you look so close to the general? Are you the general's lover?"

Wang Zhong: "Katyusha, we are discussing serious matters, don't interrupt."

Katyusha pouted.

It seems that after a year of war, Little Praying Hands is still the same little girl.

At this time, Su Fang said, "I recalled our research records. There is another possibility. The so-called army from hell may be domesticated bears or gorillas. We just need to paint their fur to look scary, give them stimulants, let them smell something with our scent, or deliberately sprinkle something with a strong smell on our army, and we can guide them to attack us."

Emilia snapped her fingers. "It is indeed possible. Moreover, these animals can carry infectious diseases such as malaria, which can cause epidemics during attacks."

Wang Zhong: "I see. I think I have an idea now."
