Chapter 448 Barrage

7days ago Xuanhuan Novels 9
Sir, something seems to be wrong in the wharf area in the west of the city. The guards in charge of blocking the streets suddenly walked quickly to Earl Mead. I heard a strange sound over there, and two teams of people were sent to investigate the situation, but none of them came back.

What?Jacquesmede frowned and said, "You can't hear it wrong?"

No, I heard it very clearly, like the sound of a person constantly inhaling and venting, and he was so squeaking... The guard also simulated it twice.

Isn't the homeless man yelling?

In this kind of weather, the people who sleep outside had long been frozen to death. The guard insisted that if a person could make such a loud cries, he would at least be a giant who was close to the city wall.

The Count stared at him for a long time before turning his head and shouting, Sir Daogan!

Sir, you call me?A nobleman with a maple leaf family emblem on his chest came over.

Take your personal guard and go down with my men to check the docks in the city. Jacques patted him on the shoulder. If there is any news, report to me immediately.

Uh... Can you find someone else?The young nobleman hesitated, "My father told me that I must enter the castle with you."

How long does it take to go to the dock to see it?There is still some waste here, the count smiled and said, "Even if Honeysuckle rebelled and surrendered, I will wait for you here."

Oh well.

Seeing the two left, Jacques's face turned cold. What a thing, do you think sending a son to the castle with me is equivalent to having the same contribution?

This plan is very good. Your Majesty’s secret letter only mentioned me!

Not long after, he vaguely heard gunshots sounding in the west.

What's going on?Jacques suddenly became alert, and the eldest son of the Maple Leaf family was not assigned to the musket Ah at all.

Just as he was planning to transfer his knight to check the situation, the guard who had reported earlier stumbled into the camp, big, sir... it was not good!

What's wrong?

The King of Rebellion... The King of Rebellion is here!He said with wide eyes, "There are thousands of people who are coming to the castle!"

You mean Roland Wimbledon's team?Jacques raised his hand and slapped his personal guard. How many thousands of people?I’ll hang you on the city gate now?

Sir, they were indeed holding the flag of the Gray Fort Royal Family Ah. The guards did not dare to dodge, so they had to kneel down on one knee and said, "I want Sir Daogan's entourage to catch two people to ask about the situation, but as soon as they rushed over, they...

What's wrong?The Count gritted his teeth and asked.

He was knocked down by a dense rogue of guns. The personal guards' expression seemed to see something extremely terrible. At that time, countless sparks seemed to appear in the darkness, and the crackling sounds almost never stopped!More than 20 people rushed out less than a hundred steps before they all fell to the ground, and even a horse could stand!He swallowed, "Sir, I have never seen such intensive shootings. If there were more than a thousand people, how could they have killed the Jazz's guard in an instant?"

Where is the eldest son of the Maple Leaf family?

Already... ran away.

How is this possible when the count sat on the chair with weak feet?

His head was in a mess. Considering the time when the news came and went, the four major families started to act yesterday at noon, and the fourth prince would be able to arrive at the Changge Fortress tonight. Wouldn't it mean that he could travel between the two places in just one day?

This speed is impossible even if the sailing boat is in a smooth wind throughout the journey!

Thousands of people are more like a fantasy. It takes at least a huge fleet to transport so many people in one go. Information from the border town shows that they didn’t even have a ship before the beginning of winter!

How did things turn out like this?

No, the more you are, the calmer you need. Jacques Mede wiped the sweat from his forehead. The number of people should be the nonsense of the guards. He was scared by the opponent's muskets. Without the lighting of the torch, who knew how many people were standing in the dark dock area.

Moreover, the range of the musket is only about forty steps. Although it is amazing, its loading speed and hit rate are extremely low. Even if they are equipped with this weapon, the streets leading to the castle area can only accommodate more than twenty people side by side.

As long as you inform the Ye Qiangwei family and the Benlang family, gather the knights together and launch a charge immediately after the opponent's shooting. Other mercenaries and guards rushed forward again, and they might be able to defeat the opponent.

After all, fighting in the streets is no better than in the wild, and the loading time of muskets is too fatal.

Damn it, Jacques slapped the armrest of the chair and ordered the chief guard to invite Count Ye Qiangwei and the Viscount of the Benlang family to come here. In addition, I want all the people with muskets to block the entrance to the castle area, go quickly!

Anyway, musket training is much faster than crossbows, so let this group of people delay the other party's progress first, and it doesn't hurt to die if a few people die.If necessary, the Knight can step directly over them.

But the news brought by the commander of the guard made the count stunned. The two of them had already left the camp with their men!

In order to make Pelo have nowhere to escape, the four major families each occupied one side of the castle area. Unexpectedly, they received the news faster than themselves.

At this time, there were already many gunfires outside the castle area, just like the one reported by the personal guards before, like the dense drum beats, which could be heard very clearly even on a windy and snowy night.

These bastards!Jacques felt a cold heart. He looked at the castle for the last time and had to order a retreat. Of course, it was just himself and his personal guards. As for the people who were still in the castle, he had no time to take care of it.

After rushing out of the castle area, the count realized that something was wrong.

There are enemies everywhere outside, and any knight who tries to cross the blockade will be knocked down mercilessly. The weapons in their hands are like they don’t need to be recharged, and they can shoot several shots in one breath, which is completely different from the musket sent by Tifeko!

The scene was in chaos, and except for Sir Daogan who escaped first, the other three families were trapped here.

Sir, what should we do?

Calling the Iron Armored Team, he shouted, "We followed behind the Iron Shield and rushed in the same direction!"

When the three iron armored teams that had finally come together slowly with their shields, the other knights also noticed the movement here and followed them almost at the same time. If they could not break through the opponent's defense line this time, they would probably never have a chance to escape from this place.

However, Jacquesmede's abacus failed... When he was still a hundred steps away from the opponent, the enemy's weapon spewed out a dazzling flame, which should be able to stop the lead ball from being hit by the bullets on the surface. The shield-raising man who was pressing in the front row was instantly killed. The splashed metal debris penetrated the bodies, and a thick blood mist rose behind the iron shield.

Before the count could shout out the order to charge, he was knocked over to the ground by a volley.
