Release that Witch - Chapter 512

[Chapter 505 Battle King Capital (Part 2)]

At the same time, Lightning, Wendy, Maisie and Hummingbird are carrying out the final blow before the general attack.

Since the main guns of the warships are all solid bullets, the damage effect on the combatants and defense facilities on the top of the city wall is not ideal. Therefore, their goal is to destroy the enemy’s defense line at the top of the city, kill the enemy’s vital forces as much as possible, and lay a solid foundation for the general offensive. Open up a safe passage.

This is also the first time a hydrogen balloon has been put into actual combat.

Compared with the thousand-mile raid five months ago, this take-off was by the canal, and almost everyone witnessed the launch of this behemoth—in Roland’s plan, the unimpeded hydrogen balloons can be used as a weapon in this era. Used as a short-range bomber, coupled with the logistics support of the entire fleet, it is completely the original version of the aircraft carrier combat mode.

The soldiers of the first army on the pier burst into cheers. They all knew that no enemy could stop the blow from the sky, and their wise and benevolent lord would surely win this war.

After a while, the hydrogen balloon floated over the capital, and the majestic capital shrank to the size of a palm. Lightning pulled down the windproof glasses, and gestured to Wendy to drop a bomb. The latter nodded and pulled the mechanism.

A bomb broke away from the bracket and fell to the ground.

Unlike the previous air raids, this time Anna did not accompany the ship, but was replaced by a hummingbird.

Under the continuous influence of her magic power, as long as the hanging four bombs are not out of contact, their weight will only be 20% of their usual weight – this enchanting method is a new method that she comprehends when her ability to control magic power is getting better and better. If the effect is maintained in a very short period of time, the weight of multiple touching objects can be changed at the same time, and the mana consumption can be indirectly reduced.

Lightning easily caught up with the bomb and guided it towards the trebuchet on the side of the city gate.

When she fell into the air, the little girl saw the terrified eyes of the knights on the wall. They raised their crossbows and muskets and shot towards the sky, trying to shoot themselves down, but she knew that it was a challenge to hit a bird flying freely in the air. What a difficult thing, not to mention that most weapons can’t reach the height of her escape.

The bomb hit the trebuchet directly, and with a loud noise, a red fireball suddenly lit up and expanded rapidly. The surrounding crowd had no time to dodge, and were swallowed by flames in the blink of an eye.

A violent air wave swept over everything on the city wall, and the boiling oil pan was overturned to the ground, quickly igniting a fire.

Then the flames flowed with the hot oil and ignited the explosive packs piled aside.

Explosions sounded one after another, blowing everything around to pieces, and there were flames and thick smoke everywhere. The knights who were preparing to fight a moment ago scattered and fled in an instant. Many people lost their way in the thick smoke and rolled down directly. city walls; others were struggling in the sea of fire, rolling all over the ground trying to extinguish the flames on their bodies.

At this moment, the city has become a purgatory on earth.

…

“Their line of defense has collapsed,” Sylvie looked at the walls of the royal capital billowing in thick smoke, showing a trace of impatience.

“This group of people deserve what they deserve,” Nightingale said blankly. “If we are the ones who lose, they will only get worse.”

“No matter what, someone has to pay the price for this dispute. It’s not the enemy, but us,” Roland pretended He said lightly, and then waved his hand towards the iron ax behind him, “Blow the horn and take this city.”

He didn’t want to lament the cruelty of war or cherish the preciousness of peace at such a time. This is a struggle for power, The battle for survival is a collision of ideas and classes.

When a backward class is replaced, it never retreats from the stage in obscurity, and it will always require a lot of blood to die.

He even hoped that the blood came from the enemy.

“Fight for you, Your Highness!” The latter gave a neat military salute and left the ship.

Soon, the horn of the general attack resounded over the dock area.

…

As a member of Commando 4, Nail’s goal is to capture the palace gates.

After entering the inner city, the speed of the team slowed down suddenly. Here, they encountered a strong counterattack from the enemy.

“Iger is injured, quickly lift him down!”

“Damn it, where’s the field artillery?”

“They were blocked by a pile of debris, so they had to go around!”

“Get ready to fire, these monsters are charging up again!”

Nail slapped his cheek hard, filling the bullets Enter the bullet nest and hand it over to the teammate in front.

A volley of guns rang out, and the madman who rushed to the front was beaten to the ground, spraying blood and fell to the ground, but the people behind followed closely, and rushed towards the commando as if they were desperate, even with their arms The body, abdomen and other parts were hit, but the speed remained unabated.

These people are not militiamen.

Nail felt numb in their hands and feet. They were all in half-mail or chain mail, and they were well equipped with everything from longswords to crossbows–everything like the King’s Guard, he heard Jon, who knew him well, said.

It’s a pity that this insight failed to save him to the end. Just when he was facing the enemy’s charge, he was pierced through the neck by a crossbow shot from an angle.

May he hold on until Miss Angel arrives.

“Retreat, the fourth team retreats!”

“The third team is ready to fire!” The

veterans no longer cared about saving bullets and shot accurately.

After emptying the bullet nest in one breath, he retreated to the rear to shorten the gap between fire suppression.

The five commandos took cover alternately along the street. Since the flintlock was replaced with a revolver, it was the first time that Nail saw the firing method of changing platoons.

But the enemies they encountered did not attack from the front alone.

A team of berserkers suddenly jumped out of the houses on the side of the street, most of them rushed into the formation before they could turn their guns.

Screaming and cursing sounded immediately, and Nail watched helplessly as his teammate standing in front of him was cut in half by a red-eyed guard with a sword, and hot blood sprayed his face.

Although the enemy was quickly killed by other teammates, the person in front of him was obviously Miss Angel, and he couldn’t be saved.

“Those bastard artillerymen, where are they?”

“Help me! Ah… my feet!”

“Keep firing, don’t stop!”

Hearing the captain’s hissing shout, Nail gritted his teeth, wiped off the blood on the cylinder with his sleeve, picked up the long gun that fell on the ground, loaded it, and pointed it at a fellow gun. Enemies wrestling with two teammates, pull the trigger.

Despite the fear in his heart, the training in the past kept reminding him that when facing a strong enemy, only by hugging tightly with the team and exerting the strength of the collective can it be possible to survive!

At this moment, Nail heard the support troops shouting from behind, “The Artillery Battalion is in trouble on the East Street, Lord Brian sent us to support you!”

“No matter who you are, hurry up to me!” the captain He drank without looking back.

Two two-wheeled carts were pulled onto the street by reinforcements, and the weapons carried on the carts were the Mark I heavy machine guns.

After fixing the shooting position, the machine gun spit out a long tongue of flames at the berserk army who launched a new charge.
