Mr. Bodyguard Novel - Chapter 1431
Chapter 1431 Internal And External Troubles
On the walls of the Helene Army Ring, the old men of the Military Recuperation Department had already taken their positions. Because of the shortage of manpower, only two thirds of the military equipment on Helene’s cordon could now be used.
Right in the middle of the Helene Military Ring Line was the main control panel. Right now, Jiang Feng was standing in front of the stage. The rest were Yuan Zhenqing, Zhuo Buqun, Luo Jin, and Autumn Bright Spring Snow.
The main gate of the Helene army cordon was still completely open, because the evacuation of Shunqing Town had not yet been completed.
The Battle Police kept their promise and issued the highest level of warning. At the same time, they organized an evacuation operation.
But don’t underestimate the evacuation of more than 300,000 people. This is by no means a simple matter.
Life is important, but life is also important.
How many people would be willing to abandon all their hard-earned properties when they were evacuated? Therefore, it was almost impossible to evacuate all of Shunqing Town’s 300,000 people into the Helene Army’s cordon within the remaining two hours.
Jiang Feng had been observing Shunqing Town’s evacuation through the screen of the main console. He whispered to Yuan Zhenqing, “Officer Yuan, regardless of whether or not the evacuation of Shunqing Town ends in two hours, the city gate of the Helene Military Ring Line must be closed.”
“Two hours?” Yuan Zhenqing couldn’t bear it, “Jiang Feng, there’s no need for us to be so anxious, right? There’s still Hengzhong City in front of Shunqing Town. If the mutant army really comes, they will definitely give us an early warning notice.”
“We’ll wait for Hengzhong City to issue an alert and close the city gates of the Helene Military Ring. Isn’t it too late at that time?”
Jiang Feng turned around and looked at Yuan Zhenqing. He shook his head, “Officer Yuan, think carefully. Since the Xeno-race army has chosen this route, they must have studied it, right?”
There was a Helene army cordon on this route, so they must know about it. “So if what I expected is correct, the mutant army will definitely use all sorts of methods to stop Hengzhong City from sending us warning notices.”
Jiang Feng’s speculation made it impossible for Yuan Zhenqing to refute. After a moment of silence, Yuan Zhenqing nodded forcefully, “Jiang Feng, what you said is very reasonable. I will go and give the order to the person controlling the city gate now. The city gate of the Helene Army Ring Line will be closed in an hour and forty minutes!”
“Yes, it’s best to let everyone in Shunqing Town know about this news.”
After Yuan Zhenqing left, Zhuo Buqun and Luo Jin sighed slightly. Luo Jin sighed, “It’s not easy to defend this Helene army cordon. We have so few men, and the military equipment on the Helene army cordon is in disrepair.”
There weren’t many military equipment that could be used, and the ones that could be used were actually antiques that should be eliminated.
On the other hand, the mutants actually used their Legendary weapons. If they were able to use their Legendary weapons twice, they would probably not be able to withstand the Helene Army Ring.
‘”Normally, Legendary weapons take a long time to store energy. They can only be used a second time after a month at the earliest. Unless the mutants have prepared several Legendary weapons, they will definitely not be able to use Legendary weapons when attacking the Helene Army Ring Line.”
Jiang Feng heaved a sigh of relief after hearing Autumn Bright Spring Snow’s analysis. Jiang Feng smiled and said, “Alright, let’s listen to the will of the heavens as much as we can. We can defend the Helene Military Ring. If we can’t defend it, we can do our best.”
“No!” Autumn Bright Spring Snow frowned slightly. She looked at Jiang Feng with some displeasure and said, “What do you mean, ‘If you can defend it, then defend it. If you can’t defend it, then do your best’? This Helene army cordon must be defended, and not a single step can be taken back.”
Do you know that once the Lin Army’s Ring Line is broken, the mutants will charge straight into Marlene City? “If they really get high-end technology weapons in Marlan City, coupled with the mutants’ already strong strength, it’s very likely that our Central North Continent will be annihilated!”
Jiang Feng was quite surprised by Autumn Bright Spring Snow’s words. He didn’t expect Autumn Bright Spring Snow to be so “righteous”.
Autumn Bright Spring Snow’s words also attracted the agreement of Zhuo Buqun and Luo Jin. The two of them nodded their heads together, “That’s right, the Helene Army’s cordon cannot be broken. Even if I die, I will delay the mutant army for a little longer.”
After minutes and seconds passed, the evacuation of Shunqing Town’s personnel had only been completed by about two thirds. In other words, there were nearly 100,000 people who hadn’t retreated behind the Helene army cordon.
Jiang Feng kept looking at the time. When the time jumped to one hour and forty minutes, without Jiang Feng’s words, the city gate of the Helene Army Ring Line slowly closed.
“Eh? Why is the city gate closed?”
“Heavens! Didn’t you say that an army of mutants would rush over? Now that the city gate is closed, aren’t you prepared to abandon us?”
“Open the door! Open the door!”
Outside the city gates of the Helene Army Ring Line, nearly a hundred thousand people slowly gathered together. They smashed the city gates with all their might.
However, a city gate made of pure Star Dock steel could last for a long time even if it encountered a Restricted Grade weapon. It was difficult to leave a single mark on the city gate with just the hands and feet of a person or some stones picked up from the ground.
Jiang Feng watched all of this through the surveillance footage on the main console. He watched for nearly five minutes. Jiang Feng said to Luo Jin, “Old Luo, send a warning. Dispel those people outside the city gate.”
Luo Jin sighed and nodded. He stood next to the main console. Luo Jin opened a loud voice amplification software and shouted, “Listen, the people outside the city gate may be attacking soon. Now that the city gate is closed, it won’t open until the threat is completely removed.”
Because the Helene Army’s cordon line had already entered a level 1 combat readiness state, anyone within the defensive range of the Helene Army’s cordon line would suffer an indiscriminate attack in the next few days. “I hope everyone retreat immediately. The attack will begin in five minutes.”
As soon as Luo Jin’s warning was issued, the people outside the city gate became even more intense.
In less than two minutes, Lin Shiduo from the police department brought his men to the city gates. The moment Lin Shiduo saw Jiang Feng, he began to curse, “You bastards, why did you close the city gates? There are more than 100,000 people outside. Hurry up and open the city gates. Otherwise, I won’t be polite to you!”
Lin Shiduo’s fierce expression made Jiang Feng frown. Jiang Feng looked at Lin Shiduo and asked, “Minister Lin, I want to know how you intend to treat us impolitely.”
“Like this!” Without another word, Lin Shiduo pulled out his gun from his waist and pointed it at Jiang Feng. As soon as Lin Shiduo made this move, he and his Battle Police immediately drew their guns and aimed at Jiang Feng and the others.
Jiang Feng looked at Lin Shiduo and said indifferently, “Minister Lin, you didn’t come here early or late, but at this moment you want me to open the city gate. What? Are you still a mutant spy planted in God’s Domain?”
“Bullshit! I’m just pitiful to the 100,000-odd civilians. Jiang Feng, are all of you Dragon Scorpions cold-blooded? Those are more than 100,000 living people!”
