My military branches can Evolve Infinitely-Chapter 599 - 367 Layout and Full Assault (4K)
Over Tianyuan City, the prolonged wailing of the alarm echoed, lingering for a long time.
Within the city, in district after district, the militia members of the security teams received the order and fiercely struck the alarm bells constructed on the rooftops of the security buildings, and the sound "Dang~ Dang~" spread out with it.
Each note struck like a hammer to the chest, heavy, oppressive, panic-inducing, as if one could hardly breathe.
In fact, a day earlier, Tianyuan City had already halted all work and notified the Territory Citizens that there would be a monster wave assaulting the city. ƒreewebηoveℓ.com
The ones responsible for maintaining order within the city were the militia members of the Tianyuan Territory security teams.
——Most of them were not of military origin, but were selected from the older Territory Citizens, a group of more experienced and knowledgeable individuals, or perhaps those who had already switched to the 'warrior' profession and performed well.
There is a place in Tianyuan City for transforming into a warrior.
Outside Tianyuan City, there was also a building for transforming into a mage.
However, the few who met the conditions and transformed into mages were already part of the candidate squad of the Defensive Troops. After all, the precious mages could play far more significant roles in the defense of the city than warriors.
The security team members had already spread the knowledge of evacuation techniques to all the Territory Citizens and instructed everyone to lock their doors and windows and not to go out into the streets, to quietly wait for the war to end.
Secondly, the intensity of the city defense battle was undoubtedly going to be much stronger than the Red Fog Disaster Moon a few months ago.
Back during the Red Fog Disaster Moon, the primary target of the monster wave was Shiling Town, hundreds of kilometers away; their Tianyuan Territory did not suffer much impact. He even dared to use the Misfortune Charm Flower to divert some of the wave, a sign that everything was under control.
But now, the monster wave was formidable, with an unknown number of Legendary Realm beings present, as well as... under the monster system of Tianqi Eternal Life, some troublesome war weapons.
Shiling Town, in the beginning, did not face large war weapons, nor Legendary Realm enemies.
Even so, Shiling Town was still unable to intercept all monsters, and occasionally, flying monsters would break into the town, causing significant damage.
Seventeen had experienced two Shiling Town (Shiling City) defense battles, she had seen many instances of monsters slaughtering ordinary people.
Even if these monsters breaching the city were quickly killed, or even shot down before they landed, the large carcasses falling could easily cause casualties among the ordinary people in the open areas.
"To be honest, apart from high-end weapon buildings like the Mirrorlight Barrier, Thunder Magnetic Coil Tower, Intermediate Mage Tower, Necromancy Tower, Ice Crystal Tower, in terms of ordinary city defense weapons and the standard garrison, Tianyuan City is still not as good as Shiling Town back then."
The good news is that Tianyuan City is smaller in area compared to Shiling Town, so the defense perimeter is not as large.
The bad news is that having only the thousands of 'main force + reserve' troops of Tianyuan Territory spread out across the entire defense line, the line seemed quite thin.
Even if he had various city defense weapons and 'Mirrorlight Barrier,' this godly protective technique, he must make ample security precautions within the city.
Otherwise, a slight mishap, allowing a few monsters to slip through, could result in immeasurable damage.
Once damage occurred, panic could easily spread throughout the city.
Keep in mind that in today's Tianyuan City, more than half of the city's population were new Territory Citizens who had settled here for less than half a month.
It was essential to guard against flying monsters or those capable of making long-range throws.
"Ultimately, Tianyuan City was built too quickly, without enough time to excavate and construct underground shelters."
Otherwise, going underground would be the safest option.
Now, Mu Yuan could only tell the Territory Citizens to hide inside their own homes and lock their doors and windows tightly.
He looked down with the perspective of a Lord.
On the streets of Tianyuan City, aside from the members of the Defensive Troops and Patrol Troops, hardly a few figures could be seen.
On both sides of the road, one after another, the "return"-shaped buildings occupied not insignificant space. These buildings were the main residential buildings of Tianyuan City, each capable of accommodating a large number of tenants.
In the central courtyard of the buildings was a Miracle Building 'Well' constructed to continuously extract water.
By sealing the building's doors and closing the windows, leaving only some small holes, such residential buildings could instantly transform into bunkers.
This wasn't Mu Yuan's innovation, but rather something he learned from other more experienced Lords. These buildings might not be comparable to underground shelters, but in times of war, they could effectively reduce damage to one's own side.
"All the necessary preparations have been made; next, it's time to stand firm and defend the city."
...
At this moment,
countless defenders on Tianyuan City's defense line were ready for battle.
Among them were the Undead Legion, the main force of the Defensive Troops, and a large number of reserves who were not part of any corps but were of First-order professional level and Second-order elite level.
There were also a few who had switched to the warrior profession and had reached the peak of Apprentice level, and a small number had even stepped into First-order.
These Territory Citizens were the elites pulled from the patrol teams; their duty was not to combat monsters directly, and of course, Mu Yuan wouldn't arrange for these frail citizens to face the monsters head-on.
They stayed behind the Black Rock City Wall, within the towering sniper towers.
In front of them, one after another, the ferocious and mighty city defense weapons, painted with red and blue — the Thunder Flame Cannons — were set up.
They were the operators of the cannons.
After all, the Thunder Flame Cannon was a man-made weapon, unlike Miracle Buildings that could shoot and lock onto targets by themselves. It required shooters, observers, and people to replace the ammunition belts.
Having them operated by Territory Citizens who had already switched professions was more suitable than using clueless reserves.
