Chapter 280:Chishui River Ambush (Part 1)

The enemy fleet approached the Redwater River fork in half a night longer than expected, and it was not until the afternoon of the four days later that ten sailing ships slowly appeared at the end of the field of view.

Verner, who received the news, passed through the six compartments in turn, gave reserve orders to the artillery group he was responsible for, and then returned to his gun position.

“Where is the enemy?”Rodney pulled up a fine slit of the window baffle and looked out.

"At least a few hundred meters away from us," said the cat's claws, who was watching the signal flag, lying in the window. "I can't even see their shadows here, there are too many weeds on the roof."

In addition to the shooting window, each compartment also opened a hole in the top position against the wall.Climb up two earth stairs to easily see the situation on the Redwater River.

"The capacity of the green-haired witch is inconceivable when it comes to weeds," said the teak, wiping some rusty cannonballs. "Where she went, the thin grass grew like hair, and covered the bunkers so tightly that it looked no different from an ordinary earthen bag."

"What a green-haired witch," cried Vanner, "that's Miss Leaf."The first time she fought against the Duke's Order, she helped us to plant vines in the woods on both sides, making it impossible for the knights to detour.Otherwise, the iron cans will be able to get us around the back through the woods.”

“If it’s more magical, what other witch is more common?”Rodney shrugged, “It is not a human being to build a bunker overnight, to cover the ground with vines and weeds, to fly free in the sky, and even to change into a giant dove.”

"The most amazing thing is that I still choose Miss Nanawa," the cat's claw tone is full of longing and expectation, "I don't know if it will be gloriously wounded this time."If you are hurt, you can see her up close, and you may be able to hear her comfort."

“Be careful with the enemy!”Vanna frowned and said, “If you dare to talk nonsense, I will punish you for going back to the toilet!”

The cat paws vomited his tongue and poked his body out.

The artillery captain sighed in his heart, and now these guys have lost their nervousness and will no longer tremble like they did in the first days of the war.He could not say whether this change was good or bad, and always felt that some of it was too contemptuous of his opponents, but he could not severely rebuke his men, because he was equally better - since he became a soldier of His Highness, Vanner's understanding of the battle has changed dramatically: bloody and cruel fighting seems to have nothing to do with strength, skill, and courage, and they only need to repeat the steps that are memorized during training, and they can win according to the constitution, according to the constitution.

Especially when the militia team in the town against the new king was clearly amazing, the opponent was a humanoid beast that was not afraid of death, but the battle lasted only half an hour.When he cleaned up the battlefield, he found that he did not even have a sense of fatigue, as if he had just made a warm-up exercise before training, and the enemy had already been defeated.

According to this development, will one day the struggle will not even see the enemy's face, just operate these metal machines, you can destroy the enemy thousands of miles away?

Just as Vanner was thinking, the warning of the cat’s paw pulled him back.

“I see the enemy!”

“Fill the ammunition!”Vanna threw his head, put the confusion behind him, and calmly ordered.

The compartment was so busy that the process had been practiced too many times, and now everyone could shove medicine bags and shells into the cannon.Without considering the reset and adjusting the angle, the gun group can be fired once in 20 breaths.

His Highness Roland and the Iron Axe arranged the battle plan of Vanner had already been well-known - similar to the defensive battle in the border town, when the observers saw the red flag of Miss Lightning before they could push down the camouflage baffle in front of the gun window and fire.The No. 1 and No. 2 units closest to the riverbank swept the deck with shotguns, while the rest bombarded the cabin with solid bombardment.

He waited for the red flag to arrive.

...

Now without the lookout mirror, Lian can also see that the pseudo-king's fleet is approaching the ambush place a little closer.

These ships are visibly much slender, with no tall sideboards and fencing, and the low hulls look at first glance as if they were close to the river.In addition to the bulging sails, a column of sailors was seated on both sides of the deck, slowly pushing the paddles in their hands.

To this day, the prince did not give any orders.

She couldn't help but get up a little anxious, and the observation was set up at the top of a higher hillside, although she could overlook the whole battlefield, but it was also far from the river.Now that the lightning and Maissie are not around His Royal Highness, it takes time to upload orders to the various squads, and it is probably too late to stop the fleet from passing through the Redwater River.

Seeing that the sailing ship in the front row was about to pass through the earth house, when Lian couldn't help but want to ask, a loud noise suddenly rolled across the river.As if to send an attack signal, there are more than a dozen thick smoke in the earth house mixed with fire, and the sound of dreary mines is endless.

What happened?

Læquent her eyes again, and then almost couldn’t believe her eyes—she didn’t see any warring knights or mercenaries, but the deck of the first sailboat seemed to explode suddenly.Wood chips and broken arms splashed around, and the sailors who shook the paddles were half dead and wounded in an instant, and a cloud of blood a cloud of blood bulged and stained the deck with a scarlet.

After losing half of its power, the ship's advance slowed down quickly, and the roar did not stop at all.Not long after, the towering mast in the center of the hull was cut off by a black shadow that was blown away, shaking twice and landing, and the two knights who had just climbed out of the cabin fell on the deck.

The sailboat, driven by the current, began to slowly retreat, other ships had to disperse and avoid, many people heard the movement and drilled out of the cabin, looking blankly at the leading sailboat that had become hell, and looked at the leading sailboat that had become hell, and looked at some confusion.

Then a terrible attack hit the second ship.

The crowded deck made the blood fog more surging, and Lian could see that after the rolling thunder, the old enemy had a few bright red open spaces, and the unlucky eggs standing in the open space were interrupted by the raw, and some people were still dying, dragging the out of the intestines and crying in pain.Others who survived jumped into the river to escape, and no longer wanted to stay on this terrible deck for a moment.

She finally understood what Her Highness meant by “they can’t get through,” but... how did his men do it?(Unfinished.
