Chapter 274 Life is precious and safety comes first
Standing by the street, Ethan looked back at the high wall outside Glamorgan Castle, which can also be called the wall of Winter Fortress. The tall wall and the trucks passing in front of him revealed a chilling atmosphere.
Looked quietly for a while, and waited for all the trucks to drive away before Ethan crossed the road to the entrance of the Winter Hotel.
"Morning, Ethan!"
"Good morning, Jonah!" Ethan glanced at the split young man standing next to him, nodded with a smile, and greeted him. At the same time, his professional habits made him quickly analyze the situation of this person: this person And oneself should be peers.
Looking back, he noticed that the other party also looked at him. The two looked at each other, smiled and nodded as a greeting.
"Lyon Kennedy."
"Ethan Hunt."
After a simple greeting, Ethan guessed that this Leon Kennedy also came from another world.
Just as he was thinking so, Leon and Jonah in front of him began to discuss what happened in Winter City, which aroused his interest, and he stood quietly as an audience.
Although he has not been in Winter City for too long, Ethan still knows some news.
For example, Jonah Myawa, the owner of the Winter Hotel, has a good relationship with Laura Crawford, and they used to be companions on adventures together.
And that Laura Crawford is one of the confidantes of the Lord David, Earl of Glamorgan, so it is not surprising that Jonah knows a lot of information that others do not know.
After listening for a while, Ethan realized that while he was happily shopping as a daigou and experiencing the lives of ordinary people, the surroundings of Winter City were not very peaceful.
The temperature has just picked up, and the winter has not completely passed, the race called orcs launched an attack on the territory of Winter City.
Not only attacked Frost and Cold Watch, but also mobilized a large number of troops to prepare to attack Snowfield Fort, which is currently the most frontier fortress of Winter City.
"War..."
Ethan sighed. He didn't expect that he would encounter war not long after he came to this beautiful city. Does this mean that his plan to live a peaceful life in this place has completely failed?
"Don't worry, those orcs can't be the opponents of Winter City." Jonah is familiar with Ethan. After all, he often entrusts Ethan to buy some seasonings, spatulas or some tableware these days: " The strength of the Winter Knights is very powerful."
Jonah is a veteran. He also has enough military knowledge. After seeing the combat effectiveness of the Winter Knights, he really doesn't think anyone can threaten the city of Winter.
It seemed that Ethan didn't fully believe what he said, and Jonah said directly: "As long as you have seen the weapons and equipment used by the Winter Knights or the Spartan Heavy Infantry, you won't be worried."
Ethan nodded, and he was indeed interested in the Winter Knights and the Spartan Heavy Infantry in his heart. Although he knew the names of these troops, he did not know the specific information of these troops.
Is the Knights a cavalry unit? But I didn't see cavalry just now, I only saw a lot of transport trucks; what about the Spartan heavy infantry?
While thinking this way, Ethan felt his stomach growl in protest. Maybe he should fill his stomach first, and then study the army composition of Winter City?
Oh, maybe you can exchange some experience with this suspected colleague named Leon during breakfast? Or when they need to help each other in the future...
David arrived at Snowfield Castle one step ahead in a Quin-style fighter, and he came here with the commanders headed by Gareth Stanton.
The high-level executives arrived, and the command of Snowfield Fort was automatically transferred to David, and then everyone entered the combat conference room for a meeting.
"Is there any battle plan?"
David looked at Gareth, Brock Rumlow, and Jack Krause and asked how they decided to fight?
Snowfield Fort's specially remodeled combat meeting room allows Transformers to come in. Megatron and Smash, who was in charge of some of Snowfield Fort's affairs before, were also present.
"The Spartan Heavy Infantry Regiment went out of the city to meet the enemy." Gareth did not hesitate, and directly submitted the battle plan discussed by himself and others to the lord: "The Cybertronian Legion is in charge of air support."
"Oh? Don't use the Winter Knights?" Gareth Stanton usually prefers to use the Winter Knights to attack first, and first use the Winter Knights' powerful combat power and equipment advantages to launch an airborne attack from the enemy's interior or rear , After forcing the opponent's formation into chaos, the heavy infantry cleared the battlefield from the front.
"Winter Knights as a backup." Gareth Stanton believes that the current Spartan heavy infantry regiment still has enough combat effectiveness, and it still has an advantage in facing the orcs head-on, even if the number of Spartan heavy infantry on the opposite side Dozens of times that of the corps: "When the opponent uses a killer move, the Winter Knights will enter the field again, and the Cybertron warriors will be responsible for these threatening targets."
"Um…"
After listening to Gareth Stanton's combat arrangements, David also understood his plan.
This is to force the orcs to play their cards first, and then the Winter Knights will attack in a targeted manner, so as to ensure that the ultimate moves of the orcs will not cause too much damage to the Winter City side.
"Do you have any comments?"
David mainly looks at Megatron. Basically, the human soldiers of the Winter Legion will obey the orders of Gareth Stanton, only the situation of the Cybertron Legion is slightly special.
"I think the Cybertron Legion can join the battle earlier, such as entering the battlefield with the Spartan heavy infantry." Megatron wanted to prove his ability in front of David, to prove the ability of the Decepticons: "Lightning, Drift, Smash, Surfboard, Thunderbolt, Skywarp can stand by in the rear."
Megatron has already inquired about the enemy's situation in detail. He knows from Nitrogen Zeus that the orcs have the ability to make themselves bigger, and the green energy they use called fel energy can break through energy shields.
So he used these flying troops as a backup, targeting these giant orcs that might appear at any time.
He hopes that this battle will make the Cybertron Legion the real ace force of Winter City, but he doesn't want to lose staff in a daze, even the Autobots who once opposed him.
"Besides, the giant manticore should be able to surprise those orcs."
There is a giant mechanical worm on the Decepticon side. This thing is amazingly destructive, but it is too big to come over. It would be troublesome, so I didn’t bring it this time.
However, the giant scorpion is enough. This kind of mass-produced Decepticon is moderate in size, and its combat style of launching a surprise attack from the ground is very suitable for causing chaos on the battlefield.
"Just fight like this!"
David fully accepted Megatron's suggestion. He felt that with this style of play, everyone could get what they wanted.
The Spartan Heavy Infantry Regiment has gained combat experience and has truly grown into the main force of Winter City; the Winter Knights still maintain their trump card status; the Cybertron Legion has also proved its ability.
This style of play can also reduce the probability of casualties on your side very well—if the rescue is timely, it is not impossible to destroy the enemy without casualties. Ding also came this time.
With these people, together with David's personal care, plus the defensive power of the blizzard power armor and its own first aid function (the vital signs monitoring and automatic injection device for therapeutic medicine are integrated inside the armor), it should be possible to ensure that every soldier can survived.
As for the safety of Transformers? The ambulance also arrived at Snowfield Castle!
Even if something really happens, as long as the fire is not completely extinguished, David can save him—even if it is really extinguished, at worst, he can go to Azeroth, and he can become a (Cybertron) human again in minutes .
The military commanders went to prepare for the battle, and David led Helen and others up the city wall.
Standing on the city wall and looking towards the plain to the east, the orc army can already be seen in the distance, and the positions where the sky and the earth meet in the distance are densely occupied by orcs.
"So many orcs, what did they live on before?"
David looked at the huge piles of orcs in the distance, and wondered if there was something like a barracks in the east. As long as he threw some ore, money, wood and other things, there would be a steady stream of orcs running away. come out?
This number is a bit too much and abnormal.
"Should I send someone to investigate?" Laura also wanted to know the answer, and the adventure factor in her bones began to stir again: "How about I go to the rear of the orcs with Peggy and Cirvanas? "
David originally wanted to directly reject Laura's suggestion. According to his personality, it is a very bad plan to investigate the enemy's hometown alone when he doesn't know the opponent's situation at all.
But his words of refusal were stuck in his throat, and he never spit them out.
For some unknown reason, he always felt a voice telling himself that he could get answers to many questions just by looking around.
After hesitating for a few seconds, David simply decided: go and see for yourself!
Without Laura, it is even more impossible to bring Helen. This time he is planning to go deep alone, because he feels that if he goes alone, he can choose to fight or flee at will when encountering enemies or troubles?
Abilities such as the Holy Light and the Body of Cybertron may not be invincible, but if they are used to save their lives, David has full confidence in them.
Moreover, he is also a Cybertronian hermit warrior. When necessary, he can even 'transform' himself into an orc.
But even though there are already so many abilities to save lives, after David made a decision, he still made a few more preparations.
Ask Medivh to specifically bind a passive teleportation magic: when David's life is in crisis, it will be automatically triggered to teleport him back to Winter City.
In addition, he also brought the hearthstone he got from Varian not long ago.
