Chapter 896 Launch Vehicle
Looking at the raging flames all over the mountains, Ulysses was so angry that his liver hurt. He had never suffered such a devastating defeat in this world, especially since this was the kingdom of God that he was most familiar with.
For a moment, he even had the illusion that Zhang Tuohai was the owner of this divine kingdom, because, from the information Zhang Tuohai occasionally revealed, Zhang Tuohai seemed to be more familiar with every tree and blade of grass here than he was.
"It shouldn't be like this!" Ulysses was puzzled.
"I still have a chance!"
Ulysses brought many wild beasts to a cold pond in a hidden place. Although the cold pond looked ordinary, it was icy cold. Even if you stood next to the cold pond, you could still feel the cold air.
This is a special resource point in this world - Cold Pond.
The special effect of the cold pond is also very simple. As long as you soak in the cold pond for a while, you will gain the ability to resist fire, and the flame cannot burn its skin. However, this resistance is achieved by consuming lifespan. The remaining lifespan of a beast that has been soaked in the cold pond is usually no more than seven days.
Ulysses didn't care about this side effect at all. As long as the goal was achieved, the death of any number of these beasts was acceptable.
Under Ulysses' instructions, groups of wild beasts entered the cold pool to soak, gaining a buff that would resist fire, and then stopped nearby waiting for his orders.
"I'll let you be proud for a while. I'll see how you deal with these beasts after I buff them."
Ulysses looked at the increasing number of wild animals around the cold pond, and his heart was filled with excitement.
Thinking about the scene of breaking through Zhang Tuohai’s defense line.
In the mountain mining area, Zhang Tuohai looked into the distance.
"Ulysses is about to get angry. We can't provoke him anymore. We have to let him win a small victory and keep him on the chessboard. Otherwise, if he pushes him too far, he might overturn the chessboard."
Zhang Tuohai began to arrange a retreat route.
However, he does not intend to give up these mining sites.
Since it is impossible to dig in an open-air mine, let's go back underground and dig in tunnels.
Anyway, there are enough people.
In the afternoon, Ulysses led a large number of wild beasts through the flame area and came down the mountain stepping on the embers on the ground.
"Charge!"
Many wild beasts rushed towards the fortified area on the top of the mountain.
Zhang Tuohai had already withdrawn most of his troops. After putting up a symbolic resistance and killing a large number of wild beasts, he pretended to have run out of ammunition and led his troops to evacuate through the mine tunnel.
Before evacuating, they also blew up the entrance to the mine.
"Humph, you run fast!"
Standing at the top of the mine, Ulysses smiled victoriously .
"Don't think I won't be able to find you just because you blew up the mine. Wait, I'll go find you right away."
Ulysses was in high spirits and led a large group of wild beasts towards Zhang Tuohai's line.
Then, I was taught a lesson by various machine guns.
The firepower network composed of various machine guns could not even be broken through by early tanks and cavalry, let alone a group of wild beasts.
After several consecutive charges, Ulysses saw the technological gap between the two sides.
He is now behind and must catch up in order to inflict enough damage on Zhang Tuohai.
Ulysses let these beasts continue to harass Zhang Tuohai's front line, while he quickly returned to his base and began to develop the base's technology.
In the next few days, Ulysses did not harass Zhang Tuohai and focused on climbing the technology tree.
Neither side disturbed the other. Zhang Tuohai was aggressively expanding his territory, while Ulysses was busy at home studying technology.
Looking at the ever-expanding Zhang Tuohai, Ulysses showed a look of disdain on his face.
"Humph, just expand as you like. Wait a few days and see who will win ."
A few days later, Ulysses successfully escaped.
Behind him was a brigade of main battle tanks, helicopters, and numerous heavy howitzers.
"Hmph, don't think you're the only one who can use artillery to bombard the ground. Let me show you how it feels to be bombarded by artillery."
Ulysses brought his team to the front line. Due to the continuous attacks in the past few days, the beasts under his command had been almost consumed. Small pieces of meat and blood were scattered everywhere on the battle line, and a fishy and burnt smell filled the air.
Not far away, the defense lines were still the same, with all kinds of machine gun bunkers and trenches everywhere, but the density of machine gun bunkers had become higher.
“Hehe…” Seeing the scene in front of him, Ulysses sneered.
"You are so short-sighted. Do you think that you can always be ahead just because you have a little advantage? Let me teach you a lesson about the generation gap."
"start!"
Ulysses waved his hand, and large-caliber heavy artillery regiments roared.
Boom, boom, boom!
Zhang Tuohai's defense line was blown to pieces by heavy howitzers, trenches collapsed, machine gun bunkers were blown into pieces, and barbed wire was broken and scattered on the ground.
After a round of artillery preparation, only burnt-smelling soil was left on Zhang Tuohai's position, and the remaining defensive buildings had all disappeared.
"That's it?"
The contempt in Ulysses' eyes became even heavier. He ordered the artillery fire to extend deeper and the tank formation to advance deeper into the position.
The wide tracks crossed the collapsed trenches and advanced into the depths of the position.
Nothing can stand in the way.
Woo——woo——
A whistle sounded, Ulysses looked back and saw an armored train approaching not far away.
"This thing again, do you think these things can still stop me?"
Ulysses showed disdain on his face. He waved his hand and a fleet of helicopters rushed forward. Without saying a word, a round of rockets was fired and the armored train was directly turned into scrap metal.
"Rubbish."
Ulysses uttered two words softly, stood on the roof of a main battle tank, and continued to drive forward.
Artillery was extending, main battle tanks were advancing, and helicopter formations were guarding in the sky. Ulysses's legion pierced into Zhang Tuohai's defense line like a sharp sword, as if entering an empty space.
Although machine gun bunkers and armored trains continued to fire in an attempt to stop Ulysses's powerful offensive, they were completely powerless to fight back.
After several hours of armed advance, Ulysses finally arrived at Zhang Tuohai's base camp, the Canyon Camp.
Looking at the towering city walls in the distance, Ulysses' eyes were full of disdain. Such city walls were simply vulnerable in front of his artillery. With just a basic salvo, he could raze the opponent's base to the ground.
However, he was not going to do that. He wanted to rush in and capture Zhang Tuohai alive to avenge the humiliation he had suffered in the past.
Just as he was about to order the firing, Ulysses suddenly heard a violent roar.
He looked up and his expression changed drastically. A huge carrier rocket was slowly rising into the sky.
