Chapter 307 Conquest

After returning to the camp, Iron Skull reported the results of the test to Reggie.

Tyr's sense of smell was intact, his muskets were back to normal, the enemy's weapons were as bad as before, and they also got an unexpected harvest, Charlemagne was in the Velvet City.

The last piece of news made Reggie change his strategy. He originally planned to launch an attack overnight, but he decided to postpone it to the early morning of the next day.

He wanted to see Charlemagne again, and he didn't want to leave him a chance to escape. Regardless of siege or pursuit, the chance of capturing Charlemagne during the day was much greater than at night.

At dawn the next day, Reggie led his soldiers to Huadong City and stopped five hundred feet away from the city wall. This distance exceeded the range limit of the artillery. Even if the enemy's replacement array could still take effect, he could not

This left the soldiers a chance to retreat.

Of course, when you come to the battlefield, you are definitely not just standing in the distance and looking at each other with the enemy. You must have an artillery rush to the appropriate range to complete the first shot. If the replacement array is still effective, under the siege of the black powder

, this artillery and its artillerymen are certain to die.

After experiencing the nightmare the day before yesterday, the artillerymen were a little timid. The brave orcs were willing to take on this mission, but they were not yet proficient in using the artillery.

Tyr took a deep breath and said to Reggie: "Sir, the smell in the wind is very strong, and the enemy is using witchcraft."

This sentence almost made all the artillerymen lose their courage to fight. They thought they would have to experience the previous nightmare again. Some even shed tears on the spot.

Finally, Reggie rushed forward with two artillerymen. The position he chose was only 700 feet away from the city wall. One of the artillerymen was so frightened that he peed his pants. When Reggie opened the inner core of the gun barrel, the other artilleryman was injured because of his hand.

It was shaking but could not move the cannonball.

Reggie couldn't bear to criticize these soldiers harshly. At the moment of life and death, everyone has the right to fear.

But the cannonball weighed ninety pounds, and it was difficult for one person to complete the loading. Seeing the two gunners sitting on the ground sobbing, Reggie picked up the heavy cannonball and aimed it at the entrance of the cannon bore with difficulty.

The first reloading failed, and the second reloading failed again. Reggie's arm was so sore that he felt the shells were sliding down from his palms. Jarvan and Iron Skull wanted to step forward to help, but were blocked by Chris.

.

"You are not familiar with how to use artillery, so let me go."

Ragrue said: "If something goes wrong between you and Lord Victor, we will lose all hope."

"Don't worry, we don't want to die." Chris walked quickly to Reggie and lifted the cannonball with him.

After the cannonballs were loaded, Reggie asked Chris to step back. Chris refused and insisted on staying with Reggie.

"Don't do such stupid things, okay? One of us must be alive," Reggie pointed to the city wall in the distance. "According to the secret scroll, as long as I shoot this cannonball, the enemy will replace the power of the cannon, etc.

Their trebuchets have turned into artillery, and it's too late for you to leave."

"Don't be so scary, don't you just want to be a hero?" Chris sneered, "The enemy's witchcraft can't be effective because they haven't gotten your blood at all."

Reggie said: "All this is just my speculation. I only saw a copy of the secret scroll, and it was a copy of the Barret language. What if Raglu copied it wrong? What if I made a mistake?

What should we do? What if Alice improves witchcraft? You also know how good her talent is!"

"There are not so many ifs. I believe you are right," Chris adjusted the angle of the cannon and then picked up the matchlock. "You once told me that you must let the soldiers know who they are fighting for, until now.

I still think it's stupid, but I have to admit you're right, you're always right."

Reggie picked up the telescope and saw Charlemagne on the top of the city. At this moment, Charlemagne was also watching him.

Alice said aside: "The green-haired one is Reggie Victor, and the person next to him is..."

"That person is my brother, the Demon Prince Chris," Charlemagne sneered. "The two of them came to die at the same time, which saved me a lot of trouble."

Behind Alice is a tower. Twenty-one wizards have prepared a replacement magic circle in the tower. When the magic circle absorbs the power of the cannonball, the wizards will chant a spell to transfer this power to the trebuchet.

"Aim all the trebuchets at these two idiots," Charlemagne said with a grin. "I don't need to see their corpses. I don't even want to see a single bone."

Reggie handed the binoculars to Chris, who pushed it aside.

"Charlemagne, my brother, he is at the top of the city, right?"

"I know this is hard for you, if you don't want to..."

"It's indeed difficult, but it's not for him," Chris turned to look at Reggie, "it's for you."

"For me?" Reggie looked at Chris in confusion.

"We are going to separate soon, right?" Chris sighed softly, "I cherish the days when we fight side by side."

Reggie was silent for a while. Chris was right, they should indeed separate. He had achieved his goal of hurting his opponent. As for conquering the entire Ryan Kingdom, that was Chris's war.

"Stop saying these disgusting words," Reggie raised the binoculars again, "Fire when you're ready!"

Chris pulled the match rope, and the cannonball hit the city wall along a straight trajectory. After the violent explosion, a large part of the thin city wall collapsed.

Chris looked at Reggie excitedly: "Did you see it? We succeeded! Let all the artillery rush up!"

"Don't be so impatient," Reggie picked up the second cannonball, "let's try again!"

There was chaos on the top of the city, and Charlemagne shouted to Alice: "What on earth is going on?"

Alice looked back at the wizards in the tower, who looked at Alice blankly.

"Try our trebuchet first. We have already gained the enemy's power." Alice still held on to the last glimmer of hope for the magic circle, but when the trebuchet revealed black powder, the familiar parabola made Charlemagne despair.

The replacement array failed, and at this time, Chris fired the second cannonball.

A large part of the city wall was blown down. Charlemagne looked at Alice angrily. Winston shouted: "Don't worry about witchcraft anymore, get out of here quickly!"

Alice no longer argued, she asked the wizards to abandon the magic circle immediately and escort Charlemagne out of the city.

The artillerymen finally overcame their fear and rushed forward with their artillery. After a round of artillery fire, an entire city wall was leveled. Before launching the charge, Kress asked Reggie one last question.

"Whose blood did you give to Alice? A cow was killed in the military camp the day before yesterday. Did you use the blood of that cow?"

Reggie smiled sinisterly and said: "How could cow blood fool Alice? I used human blood. Do you recognize our cook?"

Chris took a deep breath and said, "Oh my god, did you kill the cook?"

"Hahahaha! Of course not," Reggie said with a smile, "Once a month, it happens to be the day when we meet the most."



The soldiers annihilated the few remnants of the enemy and successfully occupied the Velvet City. The replacement of the magic circle exhausted the wizards' physical strength. They only rescued Charlemagne, Narses and the chief alchemist. Shi was injured.

Bindu and Winston were left in the city.

When he met Chris, Winston was beyond love and wanted to kill himself, but unfortunately the soldiers did not give him a chance.

And Spindu made an unexpected move. He came to Chris with tears in his eyes, knelt down and shouted: "Your Majesty Chris, I endured the humiliation and monitored every move of the false king Charlemagne day and night, just to wait for this.

One day has come, my lord, I have finally waited for you..."

Chris kicked Spindu in the face. This guy really has a talent that deserves a beating.

If it takes ten months to conquer a city, it may only take eleven months to conquer a country. Charlemagne's consecutive defeats made the northern lords lose confidence. After only ten days, Chris received five letters of surrender.

Book.

These five letters of surrender came from five cities, namely Qingshui County, Gray Iron Castle, Smoky Stone County, Hongye City and Blue Bay.

Yes, Blue Bay also surrendered. Reggie's brutality frightened the lords of Blue Bay. When Reggie conquered the Red Clay City, they had already begun to think of surrendering. Now Charlemagne has completely lost control of the north. Blue Bay

Gulf then threw herself into Chris's arms with confidence and boldness.

Since escaping from the Royal Capital, Chris has dreamed of retaking the kingdom of Lane one day, but he never even dreamed that this day would come so quickly. With the Velvet City in his hand, Chris already owns six cities.

City, this means that he already has the capital to confront Charlemagne, and it also means that the moment of separation is coming.

Reggie had already expressed his intention to leave, but Chris wanted to stay a few more days, and there was still one important thing that he had not done.

He took out the map and quill, smiled and said to Reggie: "It's time to share the results of the victory, take everything you want, and try not to be too greedy."
