Release that Witch - Chapter 511
[Chapter 504 Battle King Capital (Part 2)]
After the fire flashed for a few breaths, he heard a muffled thunder.
The thunder came from a long distance, the tone was not high, but it was still strong.
Accompanied by the sound, there was a pillar of soil, which happened to be next to the wooden house where the snow powder was detonated.
“What just happened?”
“The snow powder was detonated?”
“It’s not like, it seems that the ship did it.”
“Are you kidding, this distance is almost a mile.”
The knights talked a lot, and Wei Masi frowned. Could it be…the other party has already noticed something strange in the ground?
The information collected from various sources indicated that the rebel king possessed extremely powerful snow powder weapons, both in range and accuracy, surpassing those iron pipes knocked out by the blacksmiths of the capital.
Therefore, from the very beginning, His Majesty decided not to confront it head-on, but to use the strategy of ambush by exploding barrels of snow powder, making those weapons nowhere to be used.
In addition, the flames on the bow of the ship should be enlarged firearms. They can hold more snow powder, and the shot puts they fire are more powerful, but it is much more difficult to manufacture than hand-held firearms. Collect the whole city The old blacksmith worked hard all winter, and what he produced was not as good as a trebuchet.
Not long after, the fire appeared again, with the same low bang, this time the earth pillar rose up against the wooden house, and the splashed mud hit the roof of the roof.
The guess came true, the other party obviously came for this room, they have already found the snow powder buried near the pier!
In this way, His Majesty Timothy’s ambush plan is useless, Wei Masi thought to himself, maybe they really have a chance to touch the city wall.
So whether the snow powder weapon is more ferocious or the city wall of the capital is stronger, it will be decided after this battle.
At this moment, a loud noise rolled over the city
The sound is so loud, as if thunder exploded directly in the ear!
A small hill suddenly arched on the ground in front of the pier, and countless soil and stones were thrown high up. Thick smoke and white mist shot out from the soil, forming a cloud-like air mass.
Violent vibrations swept across the ground, and the top of the city wall swayed in an instant. Wei Masi squatted down subconsciously, and Skaar sprained his feet and fell to his side.
The soil that flew into the air fell like a torrential rain, but no sound could be heard when it hit the ground. Wei Masi’s ears were buzzing, and it took him a long time to recover from the sudden tremor.
Hell, that idiot detonated all the snow powder without waiting for the flag!
The originally flat land seemed to have been bitten by something, with potholes everywhere, hot air and white smoke were still emerging from the loose black mud, and the air was filled with the smell of gunpowder smoke.
Wei Masi poked his head halfway out from behind the wall, and saw the distant fleet moving again, marching in a row towards the pier.
The militiamen who were originally used as bait either collapsed on the pier, or dropped their weapons and began to flee in all directions.
“Who is responsible for lighting the fire?” Skaar angrily picked up the guard beside him, “I’m going to screw his head off!”
“That’s someone arranged by His Highness,” the Steel Heart Knight scolded. “Let me keep an eye on them. They are about to go ashore and prepare to raise the blue flag.”
Hope the guy hiding in the warehouse gets the job done, he thought.
As a result, there was no movement in the dock area until all the other party’s personnel landed on land.
*******************
When the earth-shattering roar sounded just now, Alan Abel was taking care of his sword. The huge explosion and tremors made him almost drop the hilt by mistake.
Even though he knew this would happen in advance, he still didn’t expect the snow powder to explode with such an astonishing momentum.
This is still two or three miles away. What would it be like if you were caught in a trap?
He calmed down the restless mount, sheathed his sword, and gestured to the cavalry behind him, “As soon as the door opens, you charge with me, don’t keep your horsepower, the canal is behind them!”
Everyone hadn’t recovered from the shock of the thunder, and the voices of responses seemed uncertain.
Allen shouted loudly, “This is a trap set by His Majesty. Thunderfury punishes the opponent, not us! Keep up your spirits, they have no choice but to retreat!”
“Yes…” This time the answer was finally in unison.
But the group of mercenaries behind them still looked dazed, and Allen shook his head disdainfully. He didn’t take these people seriously at first, but just followed behind to clean up the mess.
However, after a while, the city gate still did not open.
How is this going?
He looked at the top of the city wall with some doubts, but the steel heart knight didn’t give any new instructions. The charge could start at any time, and he couldn’t leave the defensive position to ask about the situation.
Time passed bit by bit, and suddenly, he heard a muffled sound again. The sound seemed to come from a very far away. If I remember correctly, it seemed to be an attack from the enemy.
What went wrong with the plan?
Didn’t the snow powder trap make the opponent break up and flee?
When feeling a little anxious, a strange wind suddenly sounded, and before Alan had time to think about it, the blue bricks beside the city gate suddenly burst open!
Boast!
The flying gravel splashed all over the place for a while, he felt a numbness in his waist, he fell off the horse stiffly, and the frightened horse stepped on his thigh while running away.
The severe pain made him cry out: “Ah, my leg!”
“team leader!”
“Master Allen!”
The two followers immediately surrounded him.

“Control the team, don’t let them run around!”
Allen held back the sting and shouted.
The formation of the cavalry was in chaos. No one knew what had happened, so they rode their horses to dodge one after another, and the subordinates could not suppress the sudden change with their hissing and shouting.
He tried his best to get up, but he failed after several attempts. Looking over his head, he saw his thigh twisted into a strange shape. The broken bone tore through the skin and trousers, revealing a small half, with bits of meat still hanging on it.
Allen’s heart suddenly became cold, and his knight career was over.
At this time, the weird wind sounded again.
The sudden change this time was the city gate.
He saw with his own eyes that the two guards guarding the city gate were instantly surrounded by a cloud of debris, scattered wood and flying stone chips swept by. When the dust dissipated, Allen was shocked to find that the upper bodies of the two men seemed to be cut by a sharp blade. As soon as it was gone, blood mixed with red and green viscera dripped all over the floor.
There were five or six cavalrymen behind them, and those usually harmless pieces of wood turned into deadly weapons at this moment, piercing into the body like knives, and a stone the size of a thumb could pierce through armor!
A gap the size of a washbasin also appeared on the nearly two-foot-thick city gate, but the enemy is still three miles away!
“The devil, the enemy is the devil!”
I don’t know who yelled, and the chaotic scene exploded in an instant.
The cavalry who were preparing to charge turned their horses around one after another and ran towards the rear. After catching up with the fleeing mercenaries, they caused trampling and even greater disturbances.
In the blink of an eye, the situation under the west city wall has become uncontrollable.
