Chapter 102 Blood Man

Sergeant Taylor, who was resting in the sentry, heard the footsteps coming from outside, and he shouted vigilantly: "Who? Command!"

"Benliu." The person who came answered the secret code: "It's me."

The code was met, and Old Taylor relaxed and replied to the code: "Hundred Flowers."

The footsteps quickly approached, and Warrant Officer Montane easily climbed over the wall and jumped into the corridor.

Taylor saw at a glance that Warrant Officer Montane was holding a strange short gun in his hand - it was strange because this short gun had no ignition device, just like the old hook gun that required one hand to hold a gun and the other hand to ignite it, but it was indeed a musket.

"What's wrong with it? The enemy attacked?" Sergeant Taylor asked hurriedly.

"No enemy was found." Winters pulled out a bell: "But the sirens tripwires were cut."

"What should I do? Do I need a warning?"

Winters hesitated for a moment, gritted his teeth, and said, "Ring the bell! Issue an alarm!"

Seeing that the star official was so determined, Taylor became scared instead. He licked his lips and dissuaded him: "Do you want to confirm again? The tripwire may also be broken by himself... If you accidentally send an alarm, you will be a big mess. Should you wait?"

Winters wasn't sure if the tripwire was cut artificially. To be safe, he should wait until he really encountered the enemy before warning him.

Because once it is discovered that it is a false alarm, Winters will definitely be held accountable, and even other sentries may fall into trouble.

"Roll the alarm now! Light the beacon!" Winters gritted his teeth again: "It is better to misreport than misreport! Go and issue an alarm, I will bear the consequences if something happens."

Seeing that the star official was determined, Sergeant Taylor could only obey. He quickly ran to the side of the alarm bell, swung the bell hammer and began to knock hard with all his strength.

The rapid bell echoed on the battlefield in front of the city wall. First, there were only the West-Four Posts, and the posts on the old siege wall behind Winters also sounded the alarm bell.

The barracks were awakened from their sleep, and the officers rushed out of the tent and shouted loudly, "Emergency gather!" The soldiers were busy looking for their clothes and weapons.

Two piles of beacon fires were lit on the earth wall next to the West-Fourth Cannon Point, indicating that there were police.

Other artillery positions and sentry posts lit a bunch of beacons, indicating that there is no abnormal movement in their position for the time being.

Winters climbed the wall and counted the beacons everywhere three times. After confirming that he was wrong, he immediately called Sergeant Taylor: "There is no beacon on the West-Three Pawns, and something may have happened. Who among your men is not night blind? "

"Dan, Wake." Old Taylor named two names without hesitation.

"Tell them to bring their weapons and follow me." Winters put on his helmet, pulled out his sword, and threw the scabbard to the ground.

"Are you going out?" Old Taylor was very surprised: "We just need to keep the cannon waiting for support."

"We must figure out what happened in the West-3 gun position." Winters explained: "It is like hiding in the whistle position to be blind, and we don't know where the enemy runs."

Sergeant Taylor grabbed Winters' arm: "Then I'll take someone there, you'll stay here."

Winters asked coldly, "Do you have me good at fighting? And I'm not at ease when others go to scout. I have to see it with my own eyes."

Taylor's 10-man team was all long-salted men, which was difficult to use in the narrow corridor. Dan and Wake abandoned their long weapons and replaced them with one-handed swords to follow Winters along the corridor towards the west-three gun positions.

In order to prevent artillery, the corridor winds like a snake, with a corner every four or five meters apart. When they were about to reach the artillery position, Winters heard footsteps coming from the corridor ahead.

"Correction?!" He shouted immediately.

The person who came did not answer, and the footsteps were accelerating.

"Enemy attack!"

Dan and Wake saw a figure flashing from the corner ahead, and then Warrant Officer Montane pulled out his monster short gun and shot the person to the head.

Dan could see clearly that the short gun in the warrant officer had neither a fuse nor a spring wheel, nor even a trigger, but only a stock and a barrel.

However, in the hands of Warrant Officer Montagne, it fired normally like an ordinary gun.

"The Wizard's Black Magic", a sentence emerged from the minds of the two privateers.

Winters' palm was numb by the recoil of the gun. It was the first time he used this spell to fire a gun in actual combat. Unexpectedly, it could be really useful and very useful.

For Winters, spell firing firearms is much more convenient than flying arrows. He is not good at kinetic energy spells, but he is good at burning fire spells.

Before he could boast, several enemies holding short swords rushed out one after another at the corner ahead.

The disadvantages of spells inspiring firearms are also obvious - or only one shot is there.

In desperation, Winters smashed the empty gun at the other party.

A thought popped up in his mind: "Maybe tied three barrels together?"

However, now is not the time to think about this. Winters replaced his sword and stabbed him towards the enemy.

Even a coward who has no power has experienced several bloody battles like Winters, he has long been tempered into a fierce warrior, not to mention that Winters himself is an officer who has been trained for many years.

Dan and Wake watched in shock as Warrant Officer Montagne efficiently kill—no, it was the slaughter of the rushing enemy.

The corridor is narrow, and the enemies can only go up one by one. If one comes up, the warrant officer will knock down one. There is no enemy that is his one-union enemy.

As a result, Winters, Dan and Wake were only three people, and they were pushing forward. It was not Dan and Wake's turn to take action. They followed Winters and stabbed him again when they saw someone who had not died.

After being killed eight or nine people in a row, the Tanirians completely collapsed. The remaining Tanirians were both devastated, and they rolled and crawled around and ran away.

After seeing Tani climb over the earth wall and flee to the city wall, Winters did not continue to chase after him.

He picked up the short gun that had just been thrown out from under the body, and Dan and Wake looked at him in awe.

"Let's go to the West-Three Cannon position." After the gun was retrieved, Winters took the lead and continued to walk in the front.

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! Dan swallowed his saliva and couldn't help but whisper to Wake: "I finally understand why the warrant officer is called "blood man"..."

Continue to advance towards the West-San Pawns, and the bodies of the Venetta soldiers began to appear in the passage. The dead Venetta people were lying in various parts of the corridor where the West-San Pawns were located, and the bodies were still warm.

"Sir! There is a centurion here!" Wake reported to Winters loudly.

I saw a corpse in an officer's uniform lying on the ground, his arms drooping weakly, and his eyes had lost their spirit.

Winters carefully identified it for a while before he recognized it as Lieutenant Dyke, the star officer of the West-Three Cannon Group. There was a terrible wound on Dyke's neck, which was speculated to be fatal.

"Die." Dan concluded concisely.

Wake spat: "Nonsense."

Winters tried to restore the scene when Dyke and his subordinates died in his mind, but he couldn't figure it out.

With his eyebrows tightly twisted together, Winters thought in confusion: "No matter how you look at it, there has been a fierce battle here, but why didn't I hear any movement next to the West-3 gun team?"

All the cannons were on the cannon stand, but all the nails were firmly nailed to death and they were all scrapped in the short term.

Obviously, the purpose of the Tacheng defenders raided here was to destroy the Venetta artillery. The Venetta people made full preparations for this, but why did they not hear any alarm?

Winters went to check the alarm again, and it was intact.

A sharp whistle came from the west, and Dan shouted in panic: "Sir! It's our cannon position!"

"Go! Go back!" Winters drew his sword in his hand and ran towards the West-Four Cannon Points. Dan and Wake were left far behind by him.

Among the eight artillery positions, the smaller the number, the closer it is to the central axis. The four western artillery positions are on the west side and are the artillery positions closest to the city wall.

Tanirian soldiers with nails and hammers climbed over the wall, jumped into the artillery position, and rushed towards the position of the cannon.

Winters' two ten-man teams wanted to stop the enemy, but the number was too low and they were already under pressure.

The two sentry positions were arranged in front of the artillery position with horns. The structure was modified according to Winters' requirements: the entrance was narrow, but the interior was enough to accommodate a team of ten people.

A fierce Tanirian swordsman howled and rushed into Taylor's sentry. As soon as he entered, he was stabbed into the stomach by Buba's halberd. The second Tanirian who wanted to rush in was also forced back by the halberd.

Seeing that the front was unable to break through, the Tanirians walked around the post and climbed over the wall and jumped into the post. Old Taylor held a steel crossbow and shot a Tanirian who had climbed up the wall to death, then pulled out his waist and slashed at another Tanirian who jumped in...

Outside the post, a bold Tanirian archer simply stood on the top of the wall and shot arrows at Sergeant Taylor and the others from a high place.

Winters hit the archer off the wall with a flying arrow. He didn't bother to check whether the archer was dead, so he raised his sword and rushed towards the ward.

The Tanirians were all focused on the posts that attacked the Venettas, and they didn't notice that Winters approached them from behind.

It was not until the screams came from behind that the Taniria people realized that they had been surrounded by one person.

"Kill! Warrant Officer Montane is back! Reinforcements are here!" Taylor was stabbed in the head, blood flowed from the top of his head into his eyes. He reached out and wiped his face randomly, holding up his waist knife and shouted: "Great Vineta!"

“Huzzah!”

The morale of the Venetta soldiers in the sentry was greatly boosted and they shouted and counterattacked from the sentry.

The Tanirian soldiers in the corridor were attacked from front and back, and they were immediately defeated and jumped over the wall to escape. All the Tanirian soldiers who ran slowly were dragged back and killed.

After dealing with the Tanirians in the corridor, Winters gasped with his knees on his knees, and asked Taylor in a hoarse voice: "How is it now?"

"Cannon! The cannon was lost!" Old Taylor was so anxious that he forgot to use his honorific words: "At least one hundred Tani guys came! Another sentry was lost!"

"Where are the reinforcements behind?"

"Not coming yet."

"Go! Go to the cannon! Come with me!" Winters wiped the blood from his face with the hem of his shirt, and replaced it with a scimitar on the dead man's hands - because his sword had been curled - held the wall and led everyone toward the cannon position.
