Power and Empire Chapter 2376: The Emperor’s Knife (15)
Clang! clang! files!
The port bell, which represents the abnormal situation, rang over the entire city. Just when everyone was surprised, a cavalry of the city garrison galloped across the street, and his horse’s hoof stepped on the dry stone paving. It was like a drum beating hurriedly, shouting "Pirates have entered the port, the whole city is under martial law, no one can go to the streets!" At the security garrison camp, the citizens of Luansok can go through the wooden platoon. I saw the guard soldiers running in panic. The light cavalry, wearing red and yellow colors, stepped on the horse, and the garrison trainer shouted loudly. It seemed that it was indeed quite urgent. The dozens of catapults placed in the camp were also pushed out by the garrison.
"Master Aravan, is it a bit too much to make such a fuss?" Aurelio heard the sound of the bronze bell, frowned slightly, his eyes were not far away, leading a small group of soldiers from A strong man coming in from the port entrance
"Master Aurelio, I know your Excellency does not want to make this matter a big deal, but if you rush into a merchant ship of the Falcon Empire, it will be very troublesome if there is no sufficient reason! Just let the whole city directly. I know, our garrison is fighting pirates!" The brawny man said with a smile, and he didn't mind Aurelio's angry gaze,
" It seems that Master Aurelio’s temptation has failed very regrettably! "The strong man turned his eyes to the merchant ship in the dark, and at the same time saw the fallen corpses on the floor. There were many double The uniforms of the head eagle merchant group smuggling team are intertwined with the white feathers of the arrow clusters stuck in it. At a glance, under the blowing of the sea breeze, it is like a white carpet spreading out in the harbor
" Master Araven, your jokes are not funny at all! "Aurelio looked ugly and said viciously." On the contrary, within your governance, such a vicious pirate appeared, hurting our business. There are dozens of lives in the regiment, and the port is at a loss. Once such news spreads, the assessment of the adults this year will be over, and I believe that the Prime Minister does not want his money bag, because of this, there will be a sharp drop in the situation. , The status of the adult at the time is in jeopardy!"
"Pirate? What kidding, the whole Luan Sock is going bankrupt, which pirate will rob Luan Sock at this time!" Hearing Aurelio's words, the strong man's face was calm and the corners of his mouth curled slightly. After a while, his gaze became sharp, and he said in a condensed voice, "On the contrary, it is Master Aurelio. There have been so many casualties in the port tonight, don't you need to explain?"
"Explanation? Adults want to spy on the secrets of the two-headed eagle merchant group?" Aurelio smiled coldly, and gently brushed the silver cane in his hand. "If that's the case, I can say, but adults dare Listen? The adults only need to know that the other party is a pirate. Other things are useless to ask! If this is done properly, the business group can consider talking to the Prime Minister for the adults at the general meeting this winter. Just a good word or two, and I can also promise to deliver the woman whom the adult has always been in love with, unscathed in the hands of the adult!"
"What you said is true?" The strong man's face changed, his eyes were shining, he had to consider the weight provided by Aurelio, it was really irresistible!
Most people in Fei Ze know that the Royal Family is behind the Double-Headed Eagle Merchant Group. Many confidential matters of the Royal Family are handled by the Double-Headed Eagle Merchant Group. Just as the other party said, there are some things that the other party dare to say. I really didn’t dare to listen, but the other conditions that the other party said made his heart moved. According to the weight of the double-headed eagle merchant group, if you are willing to say a few good things for yourself in front of the prime minister, then you will be transferred to a higher level. Going to the provincial capital is just a certain thing, and the widow from the third rank nobleman, she has always wanted to get it, but he is concerned about the other party’s physical status. If it is the double-headed eagle merchant group, then there is no problem, kidnapping Isn't this kind of thing the double-headed eagle merchant group is best at?
Don’t look at Luansok as the largest trading city in Fezer. The sheriff himself is an eye-catching fatness. In fact, how many people know that behind them, how many forces need to go up and down? Thousands of gold coins were paid in, and in the end, a hundred gold coins could fall into their own hands. It was enough to sneer. How many wealthy families are still entangled in this port. He is a small sheriff, and even a fourth-grade little nobleman. How difficult it is to be caught in the middle of the little people who are not counted! The most important thing is that it’s too dangerous here. It always faces the huge pressure of the Northern Falcon Empire’s naval fleet. This period of time has made his nerves stretched to the extreme.
The relationship between the six southern countries and the Falcon Empire is already very tense. I don’t know when it will be an undeclared war. At that time, Luansok will be the battlefield, and he will be on the 3,000-man defense team. What is the use of the Northern Falcon Empire with millions of soldiers and thousands of warships!
"The other party is really a pirate?"
The brawny asked finally. He knew it was unnecessary. The reason for asking was just to cheer himself up. After all, it is the merchant ship of the Falcon Empire. It takes courage to do it! , He is the sheriff Araven, a sullen-looking burly man, nearly two meters tall, the sheriff's uniform with high collar and horns is fully supported by his tall stature, and a pair of flat triangular eyes show through. Unconcealed greed and ferocity, the first feeling of walking on the face is like a mountain pressing over. The sheriff’s identity should be accurately regarded as a soldier, and Luansok is the front line. In the area, the local garrison stationed in the city is actually the border guard. In terms of weapon equipment, it is already the configuration of the Fezer regular army.
Infantrymen with heavy shields in their hands continued to enter from the entrance of the port. The number of soldiers continued to increase, and soon reached more than a thousand. The soldiers lined up, holding gleaming weapons, more than a dozen units. Military heavy slings are being assembled and erected on the spot by craftsmen in the army, showing very good qualities. The regular army is the regular army, which is not comparable to the business group.
"Of course the other party is a pirate! Otherwise, you think I will not even be able to get a merchant ship, and have to lose so many people?" Oalio said with an annoyed expression, he looked really anxious, and took a look. It was late at night, and he urged: Hurry up, kill all the people on it, and then burn the entire ship." Of course, he won't tell the other party the true situation, and now he can only cover up the matter as quickly as possible. That’s fine, although sheriff Araven’s question upset him, but there is no way,
The firepower on the ship is too strong. It can’t be won by himself. Only mobilize the defense team to do this. Aurelio believes that the conditions he put forward are enough to fill the greed of Araven, according to the defense team is close to the regular army. Even if the opponent is a fortress, it is enough to conquer it. At that time, all the people on the ship will be killed in the name of pirates.
"First Squadron!"
Araven also felt that he could not ask anything, and gave up his intention to continue to ask. The other party was just a merchant ship, no matter how powerful it was, could it still block hundreds of heavily armed and stubborn troops? ? What a joke! He looked at the corpse full of arrow clusters in the distance, hesitated for a moment, and raised his hand. From the full arrow clusters on the corpse, he knew that the firepower of this merchant ship was not so fierce.
The first squadron is a heavy squadron. Unless the opponent uses a sling, the damage it can cause is very limited. It can be used as a test. With his order, more than a hundred infantry with hòu heavy tower shields in their hands Starting to move forward, the armors on these infantrymen are very solid, their iron boots slam on the ground, and the tower shields in their hands cover the eyes from the feet to the eyes. The weight of the whole body is probably 30 or 40 kilograms. In fact, the weight of Fezer's heavy infantry armor is 40 kilograms. The heavy weight makes these soldiers move very slowly. The ground they step on is lifted up again, and the dust rises, like a steel wall facing the hull. Approach slowly
"My lord, do you want to attack?" An imperial sailor with a crossbow in his hand asks for instructions
"Don't worry about them, let them come here, they wear such a hòu, even if they are given a ship ladder, will they climb up?" The dark is like a dead ship's side deck, and the young naval officer lifted up calmly. Although Noras is the main person in charge of the plan, he is not in charge of operations. Operations are still under the command of officers assigned by the Navy Department. Only in this way can the skilled application of naval operations be ensured. Naval operations and army operations are completely different. Copying that set of land warfare is destined to suffer a big loss. It's like using heavy infantry to open the way. But who has seen a heavy infantry wearing thirty or forty catties that can climb on a lightweight hook?
can’t get on the deck, it’s just a waste. You can easily solve it by shooting a crossbow from above.
"Come on!"
The Fazer heavy infantry under burst out with a strong will, panting, and still accelerating crazily, mainly due to the silence above the hull, which made these heavy infantry feel a little hairy in their hearts. The closer they are to the hull, the more corpses on the ground. Many, the ground began to become slippery. Someone fell on the ground while running. They covered the liquid in their hands with a single stroke. When they were blown by the sea breeze, they turned into a sticky **** color. I don’t know if it’s my own or on the ground. The various tragic deaths of the corpses on the ground made people feel flustered. The Fazer heavy infantry only hoped to pass through this death zone earlier. The Fazer heavy infantry rushed to the hull of the ship in one breath, breathing in the wind. Floating in the middle,
"Smash it!"
A heavy infantry yelled loudly, and slammed his weapon against the hull, shouting! , It turned out to be similar to the sound of hitting metal. The weapon bounced back and hit him fiercely. It was too hard. There was not even a white spot on the hull. If it was not wearing heavy armor, the heavy infantry would be His own weapon was injured, and the scene in front of him made this heavy infantry stupid.
They are infantrymen, and they are not unfamiliar with naval affairs. They don’t know that the wood that can be used to build ships is naturally selected from the hardest wood, and the source of the wood for the Imperial warships comes from Nord’s black iron. Wood, as hard as iron, almost caused the Falcon Navy to suffer a big loss back then, not to mention that the mountain forest in front of us has been specially reinforced. The two-story deck of the ship’s sides and human-swing weapons have no effect at all. Heavy infantry, look at me, I look at you, and then look up at the ship's side of ten meters high, a pale feeling of powerlessness, and feel like a frog falling in a well, without any tools, let us jump on it. ? That's a joke
"Haha, I have long heard that Lord Aravan has first-rate commanding standards, and when I saw it today, it was indeed a well-deserved reputation!" For the first time, Aurelio showed a smile on his face at the back, which was so funny
"Asshole!" Sheriff Yaraven's eyes were bloodshot. He didn't expect that the opponent would not react at all, and he found that he copied the army's combat method, which is indeed quite a foolish thing.
If something goes out tonight, I am afraid that I will immediately become the laughing stock of the entire Fezer military world. For the first time, Sheriff Araven felt that the people on the opposite ship deserved to die, and looked at the front and back laughing. Aurelio's gaze also showed a fierce look. The other party knew that the heavy infantry was not effective on the hull, so he just sat and watched himself making a fool of himself. It was even more hateful than the pirates on the ship. This bastard, the old man will one day. I want to get rid of you!
"If it were me, I would send out light infantry to climb the attack, use the shooter to press the formation, and after the opponent is drawn out, you can use a catapult to suppress it, okay, Lord Araven, hurry up, I don’t want to wait until It’s dawn!" Aurelio covered his mouth with a handkerchief very graciously, and coughed awkwardly under Aravan’s gaze. He was able to see Aravan eating flat, and it was rare that he had a mouthful of depression in his heart
"What does Mr. Araven’s head think when driving heavy infantry into the ship? Even a businessman like me knows that ordinary weapons are useless in the face of hòu's heavy hull!
"The second squadron pressed, the archer followed closely, and the catapults were ready! Everyone will go on!"
Yaraven was stabbed with a terrible face, and I can no longer control that much~ IndoMTL.com~ The other party is just a merchant ship, a target that can be crushed by just moving your fingers, unexpectedly let yourself fall like this The big private capital, in order to save face, he has already decided to squeeze all the soldiers up. Even if it is chiseled by humans, he will sink the abominable imperial merchant ship and kill all the people on it, although he has only mobilized a few. A garrison of a hundred people, but the port was so large, all of them swarmed in at once, suddenly crowded, the cold light flickered, the infantry group marched in, the sound of footsteps was like waves hitting the shore, and more than one hundred with quiver behind them. The archer followed closely behind the queue, and the racks of more than a dozen slings began to rattle and pull,
" My lord, the other party has begun an all-out attack! "The navy officer pushed open the door of a cabin on the deck, and under the dim light, Lass was recording this on a piece of paper. Hearing what the navy officer said, he stopped. I took the pen in my hand, raised my head and glanced outside, crowds of people came towards the battleship
" The opponent dispatched a defense team? "Norras raised his eyebrows slightly
"Yes!" The navy officer nodded and replied
" So, let’s start! Let tonight be a moment of history! Plan to officially launch "Norras writes the final content on the report with a pen, and stands up from his seat with a smile on his mouth." The regional garrison actually attacked Is there a better reason for warships of the Imperial Navy to go to war than this!"
" Yes, I get it! "The navy officer turned around and ordered the Imperial Navy sailors around" to deregulate, and the entire ship is fully fired! "╰╮Take the king@ (to be continued.
