The Mechanical Empire of the End of the World

Just as Li Meng led the army to escort the caravan to the dock, on the other side, there was also movement at the Yingjiang shelter.

"Quick, quicken, hurry, go fast..." In

the vast and dim world of snow, in the sound of shouting, a large number of figures poured out from the entrance and exit of the subway station, they carried sleds, their figures staggered, and they were driven forward...

In a short time, thousands of people were driven outside into the world of ice and snow.

The huge team made the road between the buildings black and the figures surging...

Under the shouts of some people armed with javelins and rifles, the black-pressed crowd slowly moved in the snow, looking from the sky to the ground, and the team slowly moving forward on the snow was like a group of black ants, moving forward little by little.

And in front of the bloated procession, about a few hundred meters away, hundreds of young and strong men dressed in overcoats, armed with javelins, and rifles, walked quickly on the snow under the leadership of one person, and where they passed, snowflakes flew...

No one made a sound, and everyone followed the man in the animal skin coat in front of them silently.

On the other side, east of the Jianghuai Canal, Li Meng left the shelter with the army escort carry, having walked nearly a third of the way, getting closer and closer to the coal wharf...

With his feet on the thick snow, Li Meng opened the map and monitored the shelter discovered by the Imperial archers.

Today, that shelter finally has action.

On

the map, Li Meng saw the crowd pouring out of the subway station entrances and exits.

I don't know how many there are, just a moment of effort, a large area of snow is full of their figures, a piece of black pressure.

Their ranks split in two, with hundreds of people walking in front, very fast, while the large army followed.

Looking at this, the expression on Li Meng's face was thoughtful.

It seems that the other party thinks that he has the victory in hand, otherwise, he would not have dispatched so many people at once.

Looking at the bloated team behind, let alone a thousand people....

Although the other party was rushing to the dock, Li Meng did not let the porter team speed up, the other party's shelter was farther away from the dock, even if their speed was fast, it was impossible to rush to the dock before them.

The journey was smooth, and three hours later, escorted by the army, the convoy successfully reached the pier.

It was not the first time to come to the wharf, as soon as he entered the wharf, Cheng Shenghu commanded the porter team to start loading coal.

For a time, the dock was bustling and lively.

The survivors of the porter team quickly loaded the sled with coal with their hands and shovels.

The environment outside is too cold for them to stop, and as soon as they stop, their bodies freeze.

Only by moving, constantly moving, let the body move, so as to ensure the warmth of the body.

Time is ticking by....

Less than twenty minutes after the porter arrived at the pier, on the other side of the canal, a blackened crowd appeared.

Because it was too far away, I could only see a black-pressed figure appear on the opposite bank, enter the river, and approach the pier.

"Someone, someone is coming..." Some

survivors loading coal spotted approaching guests on the river.

This caused the crowd in the dock to whisper, and their eyes looked at the river.

"It should be people from other shelters, but it's the north..."

"So many people, they are also here to carry coal?"

"Otherwise, they must have targeted the coal here..."

"So what to do, they want to grab it?"

Just

as the survivors of the porter team set their eyes on the group on the river, more people appeared on the other side....

Many, many, densely packed, nearly a hundred meters wide river bank was covered by their figures, like a black wave, slowly pouring into the river....

Seeing this scene, the survivors of the transportation team were stunned, and a trace of worry flashed in their eyes.

"My God, so many people, where did they come from..."

We have to go, if they have malice..." Looking

at the approaching crowd on the river, Cheng Shenghu frowned slightly, and quickly walked towards Li Meng on the embankment.

"What should I do now, my lord? The other party has many people, and the comers must not be good..." Looking

back at the somewhat panicked porter team in the dock, Li Meng said indifferently: "Go, lead the porter team to evacuate..." With

only solemnity on his face, Cheng Shenghu nodded, and quickly turned around and returned to the dock.

"Withdraw, evacuate immediately, don't mess up, let's go..." With

Cheng Shenghu's roar, the survivors of the transport team suddenly relaxed in their hearts, quickly stopped loading, pulled the sled and began to evacuate.

Under the leadership of Cheng Shenghu, the porter team hurriedly left the dock and gradually left....

"Fort master, they seem to have evacuated..." On

the river, Sun Gaowu and his party also saw the movement on the pier.

Although it is some distance from the pier, some people in the pier can be seen evacuating and gradually disappearing to the south.

Stepping on the knee-high snow, in the beast hat, Sun Gaowu scanned the dock in the distance, and said expressionlessly: "Some people are gone, but some people are staying..." On the

embankment, Sun Gaowu saw a group of people, because it was too far away to see clearly, he could only see a group of figures.

A man next to Sun Gaowu: "What can they do?" Fort owner, do you want to fire two shots to scare them away?

Sun Gaowu chose to ignore the words of the people next to him, he waved his hand, and said: "Immediately disperse, the other party may have guns, gunmen cover, javelin gunners wait for me to order the charge..." With Sun Gaowu's

order, on the river, the crowd that was originally crowded together suddenly dispersed, and approached the pier scattered...

And this scene was seen by Li Meng...

Looking at the crowd that had dispersed on the river, Li Meng, who was standing on the embankment, frowned slightly.

It is obvious that the other party is not going to be good and made an offensive posture....

Since this is the case, then there is nothing to hesitate.

Li Meng originally wanted to talk to them, the first encounter, there was no need to meet the swordsmen.

Now it seems that he is wishful thinking....

"Commander, the other party has a primary thermal weapon, and it is recommended to evacuate to a place outside the enemy's firing angle..." The

reminder of the Imperial Archer made Li Meng's face startled.

The other party actually has a gun?

The ease and casualness on Li Meng's face instantly disappeared and became dignified...

Without hesitation, Li Meng turned around and walked towards the depths of the pier, and as he walked, he said: "Evacuate the embankment, line up in a place outside the opponent's shooting angle, and once the enemy enters within two hundred meters, immediately attack..." The

river surface is very empty, and the thick snow also slows down the enemy's steps, in this place, it is suitable for imperial archers to fight.

Bows and arrows can be projected, but firearms cannot, as long as they are out of sight of the enemy, the enemy's firearms cannot attack the Imperial Archer, and the Imperial Archer can use the bow and arrow in his hand to throw at the enemy.
