"Invulnerable to blades and bullets, impervious to water and fire, and completely unaffected by elemental bombs, yet it can shatter our protective barrier in one strike?"

The more the PhD student looked at the report, the more his brow furrowed.

He was certain that the Sea God Army must have new equipment in use; otherwise, the battlefield situation, which had been balanced by the deployment of a large number of artillery pieces and robots, could not have become so one-sided in such a short period of time.

Being impervious to swords and spears and immune to water and fire is one thing, but given the shogunate army's offensive capabilities, it wouldn't be difficult to achieve.

It shattered the barrier he had painstakingly developed with just one strike?

Are these Shogunate soldiers crazy?

Or was this fabricated to avoid taking responsibility for the defeat?

Artillery barrage could deplete its energy or overload it, making it vulnerable to being destroyed in a single blow.

Where can you find such a high level of combat power among those people on Haizhi Island?

No, or rather...

The professor suddenly realized that the research speed on Haizhi Island was indeed abnormal.

Thinking of this, he suddenly became a little worried.

Looking at the Fool soldier who had delivered the message, the Doctor asked, "Are they still attacking?"

"Reporting to the Doctor, they have stopped and seem to be resting."

Is that so?

The doctor pondered for a moment.

"Keep an eye on the situation on the battlefield, and come find me again when they launch their next attack. I want to go and see for myself."

"Yes!"

"Go down first, I need to think about it more carefully."

"Yes!"

The soldier who came to deliver the message disappeared around the corner.

The doctor began to feel mentally exhausted.

This is the first time he has encountered such a situation since he became famous.

In terms of speed, he seems to be losing out to his opponent.

Chapter 171, Part 59: They've gone down the mountain!

Unlike the previous situation where they were caught off guard, this time the shogunate army had joined the "guidance group" of the Fools.

Of course, that's a nice-sounding title; in fact, it would be more accurate to call them a supervisory team.

They'd set up machine guns at the rear; their so-called guidance was practically nonexistent.

After reorganizing the scattered and defeated soldiers on the front line, the shogunate army on Hachiyū Island not only failed to replenish or strengthen its fighting power, but its morale collapsed completely.

The routed soldiers were completely terrified when faced with the tank and robot army.

Not only was he terrified, but he also spread this panic to the new team through exaggerated words and expressions.

By the time the shogunate army and the fools noticed this, the morale of the shogunate army was already very low, and they had no doubt that they might flee at the first sign of trouble.

Under the leadership of the Fools, the obedience of the Heavenly Ruler, and the tacit approval of the frontline commanders, the "Guidance Group" was thus formed.

The supreme commander has also been replaced by the Doctor.

The commander of the shogunate army on Hachiyeon Island knew very well that he was not worthy of such a high position.

There aren't even any young masters from other families yet, how could it be his turn as a commoner?

He was pushed forward because of the need for the shogunate army to exist on Hachiyū Island, and that was also the source of his power.

If this place is gone, and his troops are all wiped out, then it's time for him to stop here.

This is precisely why those rich young men don't come.

People come here to gain experience and prestige, not to seek death or blame.

Anyone with eyes can see that this is a dead end; it's only a matter of time before it's over. Now, he's on the verge of being roasted over a fire.

To avoid being unfairly blamed, the commander of this shogunate army placed his hopes on the executors of these fools.

When the doctor asked for command, he promptly handed it over.

"please!"

He bowed deeply to the doctor at a 90-degree angle.

This was his only hope; he was willing to try anything, even if it seemed hopeless.

The doctor completely ignored him, simply turned and left, then began to make targeted arrangements.

To be honest, this situation is quite a headache for PhD students.

His main job is research!

If only the captain were here.

Looking at the complex situation and the various unexpected problems that were completely beyond his expectations, the Doctor had a headache and also missed the Captain in his heart.

When it comes to commanding troops in battle, the captain is the real professional.

—However, if he were commanding the Fools, these problems would not exist at all.

It can only be said that compared to an efficient organization like the Fools, the shogunate army on Hachiyū Island was somewhat lacking.

During this time, the doctor sent agents of the Fools to investigate and take some photos. He saw in the photos the equipment that the defeated soldiers of the Shogunate army had described as "impervious to swords and spears, and invulnerable to water and fire."

It's just a tracked vehicle and chassis with a cannon mounted on it; it looks quite ordinary.

The doctor found it hard to believe that this could break through his barrier in one blow.

Moreover, according to intelligence, it requires a large amount of logistical support to provide maintenance and other guarantees, which seems to raise concerns about its reliability and poses a challenge to the logistics of an army.

Adhering to the principle of using all one's strength even when hunting a rabbit, the doctor still carefully analyzed this "tracked vehicle," which the opposing side called the "Type 59 tank."

Judging from the appearance, the entire vehicle is covered in steel, with the front part appearing particularly thick.

The weak points should be at the bottom and top, and rationally speaking, the rear is unlikely to be strong either.

Even so, judging from the fact that the elemental bombs were ineffective, the defenses in these areas should not be weak; the so-called weakness is only compared to other parts.

Moreover, they cannot obtain specific data in such a short period of time.

He needs to develop equipment to counter this attack and devise corresponding countermeasures, all while maintaining transparency in the data.

Doing research, isn't this going back to his old profession, which he excels at!

It's okay if we don't have data, just go for the big picture.

However, time waits for no one.

Just a few days later, the Sea God Army launched another attack.

As the horrified eyes of the Shogunate soldiers in the position watched, tanks and a large number of robots emerged from behind the mountain.

With a loud bang, the power supply device on the Shogunate army's position was shattered, and the pale purple barrier disappeared.

As usual, the morale of the shogunate soldiers was completely shattered upon witnessing this scene.

"Run! The No. 59 tanker is coming down the mountain!!!"

No one knows who shouted that, but everyone on the position started dropping their weapons and running back.

"Don't leave! Come back! All of you, come back here! You bunch of good-for-nothings!"

All that remained in the trenches was the hysterical, impotent rage of the fools.

"What do we do now? They've all run away..."

"Don't be afraid, we'll come back."

The captain of the Fools, having recovered from his rage, appeared full of confidence.

As soon as he finished speaking, a series of rapid gunshots, like popping beans, rang out from behind, along with a voice broadcasting through a loudspeaker.

"All Shogunate troops, return to your positions immediately and hold your ground. Anyone who dares to retreat even a step will be executed on the spot!"

At this point, the fleeing shogunate army was completely surrounded and attacked from both sides.

Along their escape route were the Fools' overseers, guns drawn and menacing. Behind them came the legendary, indestructible steel behemoths of the Sea Gods, and a steel torrent of robots that ordinary weapons could not handle.

The two sides were surprisingly united at this moment: they were both attacking them.

The soldiers of the Shogunate army glanced at the fools hiding behind sandbags in front of them, and then looked back at the endless torrent of steel.

"Damn it, brothers! If we can't beat the Sea God Army, can't we at least beat these fools? Brothers, grab your weapons and show these bastards what we're made of!"

The voice came from who knows where, but the soldiers who were stuck halfway and unable to move heard the call and came to their senses, turning back to their trenches.

"See, I told you they would come back... Wait, what are you doing?"

The captain of the Fools, who had just been feeling smug about his successful prediction, turned around and saw a soldier from the Shogunate army pointing an elemental musket provided by the Fools at his forehead.

He paused briefly, then panicked.

"Why... wait, wait, no, no, I am a member of the Fools, a member of the Winter's End Mission! You... do you know the consequences of attacking me!"

As he watched the fingers of the Shogunate soldiers in front of him tighten on the trigger, he could already feel the power of the Evil Eye at work.

The fear of death gradually overwhelmed his reason.

"Put the gun down, I'm ordering you..."

"Go and talk to your executive officer!"

The soldier's gaze sharpened, and his finger slammed into the trigger.

"boom--"
