Chapter 089 Requisition of Cannon Fodder
But just as Tang En entered space training again, a tremor suddenly began to tremble on the light curtain. He came out quickly, and the soles of his feet were shaking slightly. Is this... an earthquake?
"Don't panic, everyone." Old Bill said to comfort the panic-stricken people, "This is just a slight sway. It is normal to be in the mine. You will know if you stay here for a long time."
Old Bill has been mining for many years, and his words are naturally convincing. This is indeed the case afterwards, and the tremor quickly calmed down.
Tang En frowned at this time, not that he didn't believe Old Bill. He just thought of the few tremors that he felt uneasy in his heart after the last night. If it was really an earthquake, in such an environment, no matter how strong his strength was, it would be useless.
It shouldn't be such a coincidence... Tang En pressed down on his uneasiness. Now he thought that this was useless, because the miners were not allowed to leave the mine without time. Next, Tang En never entered the space again, but chose to stay outside and pay attention to the movements around him.
But it may be as the old housekeeper said, the ground will remain calm for the next few hours.
At noon, uh, it was actually when I was hungry, and everyone took a short break and took out black bread to eat. At this moment,
Ring ling ling ling ling …
"Hmm?" Everyone turned their heads together, looking at the ringing ringing above the lighting crystal in the distance, which was shaking. Is it a day so soon?
"Everyone go out with me." Old Bill stood up and said, "There may be something outside."
"situation?"
"Well, there may be a lot of this, I can't say it, so I'll see it when I go out."
It is naturally a good thing to be able to go out. Tang En was the first to walk forward. On the way, he encountered many miners, like streams slowly pouring into the sea, and various branches of people poured out.
After walking for about half an hour, everyone left the mine. The mining area seemed very uneasy at this time. Fully armed soldiers had gathered in the open space, and some war equipment was also transported out of the warehouse...
Not able to see much, Tang En and the others were asked to go back to their respective wooden houses.
"Brother Arthur." Frey, who had just entered the wooden house, came up to meet him.
"Frey, this is..." Tang En pointed outside and asked.
"Oh, it should be the mine robbery, it has nothing to do with us." Frey said indifferently.
"Get the mine?"
"Yes, Brother Arthur, you are new to you, and you don't know anything. Everyone wants something like mine veins, but there are only so many things that have been discovered, so naturally some people want to enjoy the fruits and grab them directly."
"I understand!" To put it bluntly, it is all caused by interests. The ore is of great value. Holding any ore vein is like grabbing a gold coin assembly line.
"This kind of thing happens almost once a month, and it will automatically retreat when the other party can't fight." After saying that, Frey smiled, "This is also a good thing for us. We can rest for at least half a day. Haha..."
"That's right!" Tang En nodded and smiled.
When the mining area is attacked, these miners will naturally be managed uniformly to avoid riots or fishing in troubled waters.
Soon, after everyone arrived, the door was locked outside. Except for Tang En and others, everyone in the house was used to it. Some climbed onto the bed and started to sleep and rest, while others took out tools to start a gambling game, and they were very happy.
**, the defense is really strict... I heard Frey say that he is often attacked here, and Tang En had some small thoughts in his mind, but when he saw the guards coming from outside, he couldn't help but curse.
"Boss Arthur, do you want to play a few tricks?" a strong man who ate and drank with them last night greeted.
"Hehe, thank you, you guys play." Tang En shook his head and walked towards his bed.
After two hours of this, a man looked out the window casually and said in surprise: "Hey, why are there so few soldiers outside?"
"Oh, it's really. I've encountered a tough guy, and I've been transferred to it in a shortage of staff."
"It's very likely! Hey, you guys, will this place be knocked down?"
"It's all about us. Even if we fight, we are still miners. Those people won't appreciate more meat."
"Uh, that's true!"
After listening to their conversation, Tang En walked to the window. Sure enough, the soldiers who were very dense just now were only a few scattered teams, but there were still a large group of archers guarding them on the periphery. At this moment,
The door lock was pried, and the door was pushed open.
Everyone looked at the door and saw a large group of people rushing in. It seemed that they had just passed the battle, and these people were covered with blood,
Bang, bang - amid the constant sound of metal impact, some soldiers threw piles of swords, guns and axes in front of everyone.
Then a middle-aged strong man with black beard walked out and glanced around: "I don't want to say anything nonsense. From now on, you have been requisitioned. This is a weapon. You can choose one and come out."
"Uh..." Everyone looked at each other, a little confused. Some people with shackles changed their faces slightly. Obviously, the battle situation outside must be tight, otherwise they would not have thought of them. This is like on the battlefield, sometimes using prisoners to fight. Of course, these prisoners are all used as cannon fodder characters...
Seeing that everyone had no reaction, the middle-aged strong man frowned and pointed casually, "You, come out and get the weapon!"
"I, I, I..." The man opened his mouth, looked at the pile of weapons in front of him, and kept waving his hands, and retreating.
Whoosh-bang!
A strong arrow instantly penetrated the man's eyebrows, then took him away and hit the wall.
Wow, everyone was immediately in a state of confusion when they saw this.
As he was silence, a group of archers bent their bows and pointed at them, and the crowd immediately fell into silence again.
Chapter completed!
