Chapter 88 Destruction(1/3)
Without two sea-blocking cables, the warships of the Vineta people rushed into Chiqiu Bay with murderous intent and headed towards the dock.
In the moonlight, warships with torches were like a long dragon in the bay.
These warships are not the "big guys" in the Revenge Fleet, they are all Fusta ships.
[Note: The Firster ship is a light-drift sailboat with a complete deck, with only thirty oarsmen. Gold's Good Luck is this kind of ship. Although these light-drift sailboats are small in size, they have shallow draft and quick movements.]
The vanguard warship had already broken into the dock at this moment. The Venetta people on the ship were fighting with the port defenders. The sound of gunfire and the shouts of killing were loudly heard in the direction of Chiyi Port, and fires were rushing into the sky around the dock.
In the middle of the bay, the hulls of two Forster ships under the waterline were bombarded with heavy cannons in the cannon. The sea water rolled in and poured in, and the warships sank.
In order not to block the waterway by the sunken warship, the warship next to it threw out hook ropes and tried its best to tow away the sinking warship. Other warships bypassed the wreck and drove towards Chisulphur Port at full speed.
Both the offensive and the defensive parties know that the outcome of this battle lies in the speed, and the speed at which the Vinetas send troops.
Just as the warships of the Venetta people were racing against time to clear the channel, heavy artillery in the artillery roared one after another, and shells were shot out one after another, causing layers of waves around the Venetta warships.
Another Vineta warship was sunk, and the Vineta people on the ship abandoned the ship and escaped. The warship behind did not care about rescuing the fallen water, and even sailed directly over the heads of the fallen water.
The people under Winters who were still alive saw this scene on the shore. Not only did the Vineta feel like a knife, but even the Hurds felt like a big stone was pressed on their chests, and they were so stuffy that they couldn't breathe.
So many people died when attacking the cannon base, but the heavy artillery in the cannon base was intact and was still firing one deadly shell after another.
Then what is everyone fighting to the death just now? What are those who died? Are they dead in vain?
Andrey's face was as dark as the face, and he trembled and cursed a few swear words repeatedly.
A feeling of despair, depression and sadness spread among the living people.
what to do?
Everyone looked at the Centurion of Montane.
Winters said nothing, staring at the direction of Cannon and Chisulphur Port.
Finally, a young Venetta soldier couldn't help crying.
As the sobs, Winters turned his head to look at everyone, stared at her eyes, gasped, and shouted fiercely: "Saberat!"
His eyes were covered in blood, and his whole body looked extremely terrifying.
Everyone was stunned, not knowing what Warrant Officer Montane wanted to do.
A thin figure with a thin and thin teeth squeezed from behind to the front row, and Gold came out over and respectfully presented a scimitar to Winters with both hands.
Only then did everyone realize that the centurion's weapon was lost in the cannon base, and Warrant Officer Montane was asking for weapons.
Winters pulled off the suspender that fixed his right arm and threw it on the ground, took the scimitar, and issued an order word by word: "Attack again!"
"Are you crazy?" Andre was shocked when he heard this, and did not care about the presence of others. He immediately refuted Winters: "There are at least fifty people in the cannon base. We just had the advantage of the surprise attack and couldn't even hit it. Isn't it a death if we go there again?"
"Another attack." Winters repeated again firmly.
"I know how you feel, but we have tried our best. We can't die, right?" Andrey was also anxious. He looked at Bud: "Bad, you advise him too!"
"I think..." Bud squinted his eyes and pondered: "...we can attack again."
"XX! Why can't I explain it to you two?" Andrey punched himself hard.
"Look, Chi Yan Port is too busy to take care of itself now. The reinforcements from Chi Yan Port have returned the same route, and there are only the original defenders in the artillery tower." Winters pointed at the torches that had turned back outside the port with a scimitar, and said with a sneer: "The defenders in the artillery tower know that we have few people and can only attack sneakily. They would never have thought that we would dare to return. Besides, a considerable number of people in the alive defenders were manipulating cannons. We actually had the advantage of surprise attacks."
Andre probably understood what was going on, but subconsciously wanted to refute: "But..."
"Ten-master!" However, Winters did not give him a chance to speak and shouted loudly.
The Venetta people looked at each other, but no one answered.
"Where are people?"
"Report to the sir, the old soldier is dead... and he was stabbed in the stomach..." a Venetta soldier replied in a low voice.
Winters was silent for a few seconds and asked again: "I ordered him to destroy the cannon gate shaft. Was the gate shaft destroyed?"
"Destroyed." The Venetta soldier who had just spoken replied: "I followed the sergeant to destroy it."
"From now on, you are the chief of the tenth men." Winters pointed to the soldier who answered and said, looking at everyone: "Are you scared now?"
The still alive Venetta soldiers lowered their heads and no one spoke.
"I tell you! Those Tanillas are even more afraid!" Winters said viciously: "Their courage just now was just a lot of people! And they are now scared! They are trembling with their legs to clean up the bodies! Just thinking about our courage will make them tremble! The gate of the cannon has broken, and this is our god-given opportunity! When we enter through the gate, we will kill each other! We caught them off guard!"
Andre's face turned from blue to red, he gritted his teeth and made up his mind, and shouted: "Don't do it! Fuck these Tani to death! Kill them all!"
"After rushing in, we must make our voices full and shout out loud." Bud added: "Although we only have a dozen people, our momentum must be like a team of 100 people."
"My grandfather, you Hudds have fulfilled your promise, you don't have to follow us." Winters looked at Hustas and said earnestly: "But I hope you can help us once, we will be grateful, and Venetta will be grateful."
Only eight were left, including the three officers of the Venetta, and the power of the Heds was needed in any case.
"Our contract is for us to give our lives to you, and you send our women and children home." Hestas laughed and also raised a scimitar: "Send our women and children safely to our hometown. As for our lives, you can use whatever you want."
"Thank you." Winters lowered his head gratefully, and then he looked at the soldiers of Venetta: "Where are you? Are you willing to fight with me again?"
"Sir! Let's go wherever you take us!" Gold was the first to shout out, and the other Venetta soldiers agreed.
"After this war, I will find you a good place, and you will never need to fight again in this war."
...
With the roar of cannons as a cover, Winters and a dozen people quietly approached the cannon base.
Except for Hestas, all the minor wounded were injured. No serious wounded, and all the serious wounded died in artillery blocks.
"Old man, don't follow us to death." Winters whispered to the thin old shaman.
"What? Do you look down on me?" Hestas coughed twice and said in a muffled voice: "You haven't been born yet when I went to the battle to kill!"
Everyone climbed to the closest distance that could be hidden and approached. If they crawled forward, they would be exposed to the flat land around the cannon tower and had nowhere to hide.
Hestas grabbed a handful of soil from the ground and raised it to the height of his forehead. He chanted with a special guttural sound like using "healing techniques" and let go of his hands little by little.
As the soil in Hestas's hand gradually spilled back to the ground, Winters's feeling of fatigue and fear gradually disappeared, and he felt that he became fearless and entered a feeling of excitement.
He glanced at Hestas in surprise. Can magic work even for those who do not believe in gods?
Under the influence of Hestas' shamanic magic, even the cowardly people among the group showed endless courage.
Winters realized that it was now, and he yelled, raised his sailor's scimitar and rushed towards the cannon base first.
The two gates that were open to the cannons and the wall were damaged and they all fell to the ground helplessly. Three Tanirian soldiers were holding tools and trying to find a way to repair the gate.
A Tanirian soldier who was moving the wooden door heard footsteps and turned around and saw a row of figures rushing out of the grass not far away.
The Tanirian soldiers were stunned at first, and then hurriedly shouted for warning.
However, at a distance of more than ten meters, Winters ran to them almost in a blink of an eye.
The three Tanirians who were repairing the gate turned around and fled to the inside of the cannon. In desperation, Winters threw the scimitar in his hand towards the other side like a flying axe.
The scimitar spiraled through the back of a Tanirian, nailing him to the ground.
The other two Tanirians shouted and fled into the cannon base.
Winters strode to the door and drew a scimitar from the Tanirian who was lying on the ground.
The Tanirian, who was pierced by a scimitar, was not dead yet, moaning in pain, holding his hands against the dirt and spitting blood bubbles in his mouth.
Winters bit his lip and gave the Tanirian a pleasure.
"Don't disperse! Go to the gunpowder depot first! If the enemy wants to run, let him go, and whoever dares to resist will kill him!" After saying that, Winters was the first to rush into the cannon base: "Kill!"
The Venetta and the Heds shouted their own battle cry and rushed into the cannon base after Winters.
In the corridor where the bloody battle just now, neither the Venetian nor the Tanirians had been moved away.
The corridor more than ten meters long was extremely tragic, and the corpses were lying on both sides. There was no place to step on the corpses, so they could only walk through the corpses.
Winters remembered what Lieutenant Colonel Field said, "The gunpowder bank is always at the farthest point from the cannon."
Lead everyone to attack and kill in the opposite direction of the cannon position.
The Tanirians in the cannon were caught off guard. They never expected that this small group of enemies would be so fierce and dared to kill them.
In a panic, the defenders in the artillery blockhouse failed to organize effective resistance and were attacked by Winters into the east building.
"Look for the gunpowder depot!" Winters shouted loudly and searched the warehouses one by one.
However, at this moment, a team of neat defenders bumped into the attacker head-on.
When the commander of the artillery base learned that the enemy had attacked the east building, he immediately realized that the opponent's target was the gunpowder depot. He immediately organized the defenders around him and went to intercept them.
"Don't let them get close to the gunpowder depot!" The commander of the cannon leads pulled out his command knife: "Kill them all!"
The defenders all had two and a half meters of spears, which were not easy to use in the narrow corridor. However, when several people were holding spears in hand, the wall protected the flanks of the spear team, forming an invincible front.
This situation is like two rats fighting in a sand cave. There is nothing to say, whoever is more cruel will win.
The two Hudds immediately threw out the javelin. In the narrow corridor, there was almost no way to hide. With the kinetic energy given by the Hudds' muscles, the javelin penetrated the human body like a hot knife cutting butter.
However, a Tanirian fell down, and the Tanirians behind him immediately filled up, and the spear tip approached the Venettas and the Heds.
Seeing the other party rescue, Winters knew that he had found the right place. He shot a steel cone at the other party's commander, but instead hit the head but hit the chest, but made a crisp sound - the other party was wearing armor.
The spear was advanced, and the short weapons had no room to attack. The Vineta and the Hed were forced to retreat.
