Chapter 18 Cleaning up the battlefield

Chapter 18 Battlefield Sweep

There are five steam mortars in total, which just correspond to the five projectiles they encountered.

He was taking people to recover the usable steam engines from the battlefield to replace the engines of the steam mortars. It doesn't matter if the models are not compatible, as long as they can move.

The mechanic took his musketeers to dismantle the parts that can be reused, and then dealt with them to see if they can be used for the mortar engines. After such emergency repairs, only eight steam mortars were still able to move, and the remaining seven were confirmed to be unrepairable and were dismantled to only the skeleton.

Dismantling steam engines is not an easy job. Before dismantling the parts, those mechanical soldiers were fine. If they died, there was no danger. The problem was the steam spiders. The boilers were full of boiling water and high-pressure steam. The damage to the nozzles used by the enemy to attack did not mean that there was no danger.

When they were dismantling parts for a steam spider, there was still residual high-pressure steam in the cylinder. Because of this, he almost lost a musketeer.

Behind him, Chang Heng and Chong were silently absorbing the war experience and technical experience that were beyond their time, and occasionally they would run to the mechanic to ask questions.

Ji Lin didn't even look at it this time, he was still staring at the wreckage of the steam spider to avoid any more accidents.

Ji Lin pointed to the musket team he led, and the musket team next to him whose non-commissioned officers had died, and asked for some reinforcements to make up 180 people.

These infantrymen could obey his command and crawl on the ground, so his image in their eyes should be better than other unfamiliar soldiers, and they would be more obedient to his command.

Serving as artillery guards means that they don't need to die, and their colleagues can't hide their envy when they look at them.

Of course, the steam mortar can't be completely controlled by him. There is an adjutant of the commander and two supervisors in this newly formed artillery group. The attack order is only conveyed by them. Ji Lin is just a tool for firing the cannon.

He shamelessly used the permission he deserved: he directly appointed Chong 껚놌 Chang Heng as the commander of two teams of Vika musketeers. Since he was training his own people, he had to be more direct. His reason for the appointment was that these two performed well in battle, regardless of whether others believed it or not.

Ji Lin looked at their panels after the attack, and there were no new features, and the level did not increase.

He could only continue to endure, maybe he would be able to endure it.

What if he earned two high-level attributes.

Just a higher level would be fine!

[Introduction]: The dull sound of the artillery brings death. Logically speaking... the closer you are to them, the safer you are. Hey! Be careful of those mechanical soldiers! Oh, now you should be careful of the musketeers, they will shoot you into a sieve!

He didn't take the mechanical soldier or the steam spider, but he unexpectedly got a safer position.

Surrounded the center of the entire formation.

But he knew that this was not a long-term plan. If he didn't play a role that matched his position, he would be replaced sooner or later. He focused his attention on the gray-skinned supervisor holding a large-caliber spear.

The large-caliber spear in their hands can be used to hunt enemies or to kill defectors.

This is such a hellish copy.

Ji Lin, your mission is not just to find a place to hang out.

Steam mechas, mechanical spiders, steam mortars, these arms that belong to this world, he wants to take away. Even if the core resource of blue crystal ore is missing, their design and technology are still an invaluable wealth, and they can be driven by finding a substitute.

Unfortunately, he can only take one away.

Eight steam mortars, 180 musketeers, the two gray-skinned war supervisors did not obey his command, but they were nominally his subordinates. He had already gained the command of so many troops in one day.

A little tricky.

The commander came over halfway to express his affirmation and praise for their work, and planned to take away all the mechanics. Only after Ji Lin's emotional and rational speech did he leave two mechanics to listen to his command.

He sat next to the steam mortar, the flames in the fire licked the bottom of the pot, boiling the water, and he counted the bubbles.

They can make a fire without worry. Such a large-scale personnel transfer is almost impossible to hide. It is better to make yourself comfortable. In this era, there will be no enemies who reward you with a base number of 155 artillery shots or rockets based on the number of firelights when you are cooking.

Peel and stew potatoes, open a few cans and throw them in. It's meaty, not very tasty, the taste is not as good as berries with food gel, but it attracts a group of soldiers to eat together.

It's barely edible after entering from the garbage.

Since everyone in the family eats this kind of rotten food anyway, why not get together? At least it will be more enjoyable to eat. The food cooked in this way will taste quite good compared to its original appearance. The canned products processed in the steam age... the heavy ingredients for long-term preservation are really not for human consumption.

Don't expect such a luxurious profession as a chef in such a military team. On the contrary, the adjutant and the war supervisor disappear at mealtime.

Ji Lin suddenly wanted to take potatoes back to plant. Potatoes are good things. They have a short growth cycle and high yield, and can produce high-purity alcohol. The famous vodka is made from potatoes.

Chang Heng and Zhong Xiao did not inherit the unique cooking skills at all. Although the things they cooked looked mushy, the taste was far different from what he made.

Potatoes are a special product. You can go to the system mall to buy a seed in the first era. It is too extravagant to use up the reward opportunity.

"For you, officer rations."

An iron kettle was thrown into Ji Lin's arms. It was the adjutant. He rubbed his hands and sat by the fire. He picked up an iron bowl and scooped a spoonful into his own bowl.

"I want a bowl too. The spring in the Seta Plain is really cold."

Ji Lin unscrewed the bottle cap, and a pungent smell came out.

Wine, or high-intensity wine.

It lost the mellowness of low-alcohol wine and was mixed with a strong and fierce smell.

It was so strong that it made him dazed, as if he had completely adapted to this copy.

Virtual sinking syndrome, many people regard copies as a means of entertainment, entering the copy countless times, ignoring reality, and quickly killing time in the territory. After all, he will only be a passer-by in this copy, taking what he needs and leaving.

Sometimes he himself had to be willing to admit that he was quite adapted to this kind of life, rushing from one battlefield to another.
