Release that Witch Chapter 281: Scarlet Water River Ambush (Part 2)
Silvie looks more real than Lotus from a distance.
Through the walls of the earthen house, she can see that the soldiers are working in an orderly manner, and everyone is doing a single repetitive move, but the 7-8 individuals are connected together and become a complicated whole. The paper bags and iron **** stacked behind the compartment were continuously sent into the thick iron pipe, and then blasted out with the potential of Thunder.
If you look closer, Silvie notices that the soldier first ignited a rope at the end of the iron pipe. Jumping sparks penetrated into the iron pipe, leading to the paper bag that was filled first. The next moment's light made her narrow her eyes, and the spark quickly expanded into an orange-red fireball, filling every hole in the tube. The inflated flames had nowhere to go, so they had to run around with the iron ball, throwing it like a giant hand!
Before the blink of an eye, the iron ball turned into a dark shadow and crashed into the sailing boat in the river. Its force was so great that a fist-sized hole was drilled directly on the side of the ship's spliced board. Although the speed slowed a lot after penetrating the wooden board, the power was still not to be underestimated. An enemy who was about to climb out of the cabin was hit by a waist and suddenly broke into two sections.
This scene Silvie is the first time I have seen a sharp blade or sword without a sharp blade. A round ball alone can also divide a person into two.
Because her eyes were too close, she even felt that the blood and internal organs sprayed by the victim had been splashed on herself, and then several people were hit by iron balls, either by cutting limbs or breaking her head. For a while, the cabin was filled with flowing blood and red and white organs.
witch suddenly felt a surge in his stomach, and a stream of acid water rushed to his throat.
"Spit ..." The scene in the cabin suddenly disappeared. The chaotic thoughts could no longer maintain the ability to perform. Silvie was forced to interrupt the connection with Eye of Truth and lowered his head.
"What's wrong?" Lotus, who was taken aback, immediately stepped forward to support her, "Are you okay?"
His Highness the Prince also noticed her discomfort and handed a handkerchief, "If you feel bloody, don't watch it first, at least don't use your ability to watch it up close. Take a break first."
"Thank you ..." Silvie took the handkerchief and wiped his mouth, "I'm fine."
This is probably the incredible invention that Macy and Lightning said, but at that time we didn't hear much or didn't take it seriously. After all, it's hard to imagine such an amazing weapon in my mind before seeing it with my own eyes.
She looked back at the battlefield, only to see that the Timothy fleet began to approach the two shores. Obviously, they had also noticed that the storm-like attack came from the shore of the low house disguised as a dirt slope. However, the other party did not know that His Highness Roland had far more than this.
Far away from the V-line, there are hidden bunkers covered with weeds and vines. The distance between the two is exactly the same as the length of the fleet. Unless they turn the bow directly and evacuate without hesitation, landing at any point will only fall into the trap of front and back pinch.
The soldiers in the bunker also held a long round iron rod, and the fired thing was no longer a round iron ball, but a sharp tailless crossbow. They don't look as overwhelming as iron balls, but their targets are replaced with flesh and blood that don't touch the armor.
Silvie guessed that the enemy probably wanted to wait for the entire team to fight back, but the soldiers in the bunker did not give them the opportunity to be the same as the previous strike method. They did not even need to show their heads. They only needed to aim the weapon at the target. When the trigger was pulled, the crossbow rushed towards the opponent like rain.
In the face of such a quick attack, there is no need to wind the weapon, and the enemy collapsed across the line without holding it long. The disembarked wanted to return to the boat, while those standing on the side of the boat waiting to disembark fled. When the hull swayed sharply, the springboard overturned into the water, and many of those falling into the water were killed when climbing the ship's side, and the scene was chaotic.
"It's time," until then, the prince put down telescope and ordered Iron Axe. "Take the reserve team to clean up the battlefield. If their leader Knight luckily did not die, they will try to catch it, I want to ask them some questions. "
"Yes," the latter saluted.
Then he looked at Silvie, "You go with Iron Axe, don't let anyone slip away."
Silvie nodded and followed the First Army commander out of the observation post. Suddenly she understood why Her Majesty Roland dared to shelter witch in the mainland for a while ... Mastering such a powerful military force, Church may not be able to easily defeat him even if he dispatched God Punishment Army. If Lady Tilly can also have such a weapon, witches may have a day to return home.
*******************
Looking at the sailing ship paralyzed on the river bank, Roland breathed a sigh of relief.
When they plan to land and fight back, the defeat is basically doomed to turn the bow by the props and the paddlers. It is a very slow process. The other party did not choose to make a U-turn and evacuate under the cannon strike, probably because of this. Rather than being beaten in vain, it's better to rush to the shore and organize a peony team to fight back.
The solid iron ball of the twelve-pound field artillery is difficult to completely sink a wooden sailing boat. Even if the hull is beaten into a thousand holes, it will not affect its continued floating on the water. Therefore, turning the bow may cause serious losses, but it is always able to escape one or two sailing ships, and only the entire army is overwhelmed by choosing to land.
Compared with the last assault on stronghold and small town, this time the enemy did not even have an effective attack. It is probably that the pill is usually controlled by the commander. It will not be distributed to militia until the war. Once encountered an ambush, Can't respond quickly.
It wasn't until the evening that the battlefield cleaning operation came to an end.
Iron Axe and personal guard entered the camp with two captives.
Roland has n’t had time to ask before, and one of them has shouted loudly, "I am Sir Snake, Your Highness, please allow me to write a letter to the family, and they will inevitably send a generous ransom."
"I am the second son of the northern region shield family, His Highness Erwin Shield, Esteemed," said another, "I am willing to pay the ransom."
"So ... you led this attack?" Roland frowned.
"Uh, no, Captain is Sir Vincent, but he is dead." Sir Snake twisted his body. "Her Highness, can your people untie my hands? In redemption During the return period, I hope to receive normal treatment. "
"I don't need ransom," said the prince, shaking his head. "Your purpose, plan, and Timothy plan for coming to Western Region's ... tell you everything you know, and I might give you the right treatment." >
"This ... excuse me for not telling you," Snake said after a moment of hesitation.
"I have loyalty to Timothy Your Majesty," the young Knight of the Shield family also refused, "This is against my vow."
"Really," Roland disapproved, "take them down first."
After personal guard left, he glanced at Iron Axe, "I heard that you were a Clan Head guard when you were at Iron Sand City, and very good at interrogating intelligence?"
"Yes, Your Highness," Iron Axe replied, "Few people can hide information from me."
"Very good, the two of them will be handed over to you for interrogation," Roland turned around, "the methods and means are not limited, as long as you can get enough information then it will be alright."
He's startled, "The words of ransom ..."
"I said from the beginning that I don't need a ransom," Roland said in a cold tone. "After asking, treat it as death."
This is the end of the abuse of civilians and the offenders of Western Region. He added in his heart. (To be continued., Your support is my greatest motivation.)
