Conquer the Dawn of Heaven
Vol 3 Chapter 44: Night Attack (Part 1)
The cold coldness in the night poured into the collar of the person from time to time, and the hand holding the weapon also became numb due to the weather and faintly lost consciousness. The sentry squatted in the farthest carefully wanted to move to warm his body, but was The companion next to him whispered.
The companion was a mercenary. Although he was not very old, his experience was already very rich, so although he was a little dissatisfied, the Agry sentry was still obedient and did not move.
The sentinel was so obedient mainly because Alexander had commanded that anyone who did not listen to the order would not only receive the reward he deserved, but also be severely punished.
Some of those mercenaries once disagreed with such orders, and then some of them were already hung on the roadside trees, and some were rewarded with whips.
The Aggris are much more obedient than the mercenaries. They not only learned how to use spears, but also learned to use muskets to match their companions, although the Agri fighting in the Bruini Valley is still Bohemian rescue is needed to get rid of the predicament, but they are enough to say to the mercenaries who did not look down on them before: "We are not just a group of mud legs who can only plant land."
But even so, the Aggris had to admit that the mercenaries had an experience they could not match. For example, when the Aggri sentry wanted to sit up, he was suddenly held down by his companion.
Then he heard a faint sound.
That was the sound of footsteps on the snow, and although the sound sounded a bit far away, there were obviously a lot of people coming.
"Let's go back and report." The Aggris felt their teeth tremble when they spoke. There were only two of them, and the camp behind them was still far away. Although Alexander told the outpost that he had to be vigilant at night, when there were enemies approaching , Agri Talent thinks that there is no partner next to the two of them.
"Be careful, just run back and you will be found," the mercenary whispered in the ear of the Agri, and then pulled him back quietly. "Don't panic, we are only the closest to them, there are others. People are nearby. "
The Aggris nodded, and didn't know if they felt that their companions were right or cheering themselves up.
Under the reflection of the snow, you can see the edge of the forest in the distance. Although you can't see how many people are inside, the faint sound of the branches being touched spreads from one side of the forest to the other. It sounds like there is a whole team Are approaching them.
The two sentry cats carefully ran towards the camp by the river, although they did not know how many people were coming, but as long as the news could be passed back, it was enough.
A sound of tearing air came from behind, and the mercenaries rushed forward almost without thinking, and after seeing the cold arrow fly over a shadow brought by him not far from him, the Aggri were nervous Can't help but yell and run straight forward.
The mercenary immediately jumped up desperately and ran to the side. He knew that the Agri had not been saved, and his cry had brought the greatest danger to himself.
Sure enough, he did not run a few steps, and another whistling came from behind. The cry of the Aggris came to an abrupt halt, and then he fell into the snow.
The mercenary started to run in a big step. The death of his companions earned him a very short time, but he knew that the chance of survival was fleeting, so he began to run to the camp regardless of everything.
A short shout came from behind. Apparently, after shooting down the Agri, the enemy did not expect that there was another person alive. When they found the figure of the mercenary running on the snow, several people immediately raised their bows and arrows. His back shot up.
A roar of arrows passing by made the mercenary ’s heart beats again and again, but his feet not only did not pause at all but instead swayed from side to side while running, and he was clever not to choose a straight line like the Agri Instead, he changed the direction of running from time to time. He only hoped that the enemies behind him did not ride.
But his wish was obviously defeated. When he ran up the **** of the river and finally saw the fire in the camp not far away, the rapid horseshoe sound behind him scared him.
The mercenary turned around and immediately saw a shadow riding on the horse rushing towards him. The weapon held high in the hand of the horse knight gave out a cold cold light, which made him instantly scared.
Although he knew that it was impossible to escape the chase of the war horse, he turned around desperately and continued to run forward, but the shadow behind him quickly appeared on the white snow in front of him. When he turned instinctively, he saw that The knight was raising his sword high above his head.
At that moment, there were several whistling sounds in the night. With two crisp collisions and the hoarseness of the warhorse, the knight pulled the reins, and then he tried to turn the horse's head and ran towards the woods. .
The mercenary ’s feet were trembling, and he stood in fright and looked at the knight who ran back, and then looked back at the two people who were standing up from behind a sunken snow pile. Only then was he finally determined I was saved.
Then he immediately yelled to the two Agri people who were ushering in, and yelled, "Go and report, an enemy is coming!"
The faces of the two Aggris were simultaneously surprised, and the mercenary soon realized that their eyes were not looking at him, but behind him. He could not help turning his head and looking backwards, when he saw swarming from the woods When a group of shadows appeared, the mercenaries could not help but exclaimed again.
Alexander did not sleep. Carlo had been away for a long time and had not returned, which made him a little worried.
What makes him even more uneasy is that if those people really know the route he is going to take, then it is likely that an ambush has been set up on the road ahead.
Alexander knew that to reach Sanroni, he had to pass Lake Bracciano, and although he did n’t know much about the terrain of Lake Bracciano, he still thought it was a suitable place for traps, because according to the map, There is a steep peak by Lake Bracciano, although it is not high, and the forest is dense. Although it is not summer, the frozen and hardened bare forest may hurt the march more, so it is not suitable for passing there. The only road is between the lake shore and the mountain peak.
That should be the best ambush place. Alexander can be sure that if the enemy really has an ambush, he will be there.
But the sudden sound of a siren in the night suddenly destroyed Alexander's conjecture. Although he realized that something might happen this night, he did not expect that the enemy would suddenly appear at this time.
Alexandria almost rushed out of the tent as soon as the first siren sounded, watching the few sentries who ran to the camp while shaking his arms and shouting, and the figure behind them could not help shaking, Alexander immediately Shouted: "There are enemies!"
At this time, the Agrig who ran at the front had already ran to the short wall piled up in front of the camp. He swiftly moved up the whole body and directly plunged into the low wall. Then he and the one who just rushed over The companions bumped into their arms, and the two fell together on the ground to make a ball.
The mercenaries had already ran out of the tent at this time. Many of them were not neatly dressed, but they were holding weapons in their hands. On the contrary, many of the Aggris were undressed and empty-handed.
The sudden attack made these former peasant soldiers nervous and panic. Even though Alexander had warned them to be vigilant at night, many of them were overwhelmed by the panic when the enemy suddenly appeared.
"Don't run around, keep the camp! You fools!" A mercenary leader punched the face of an Agri man who was slamming in front of him, and then he grabbed the aggrieved Agri The soldier ’s collar dragged him to the retaining wall at the edge of the camp. "Did you spend so much effort doing this work just to be useful? Stay here, the enemy will not rush over so easily!"
The leader ’s words calmed down the Agri man. When he ignorantly saw that his other companions had rushed to the side of the low wall, he also followed his companion ’s urging with a spear and gasped and followed him until he hit him. Only stopped on the low wall.
"It seems that these guys simply won't work."
A mercenary looked proudly at the Agri who had gathered in front of the low wall. The farmers in their eyes were obviously panicked. Many of them would only spy their spears outside the wall, and those who seemed to be called The elite musketeers selected by Alexander actually stood with the spearmen behind the wall instead of gathering.
"It seems that our old man is not very good." Another mercenary leader whispered to his companion "Look at what his musketeers are doing."
"I hope our enemies are not many and not so powerful, otherwise this battle may be dangerous." The mercenary leader said somberly, he did not expect this time to be an **** task but suddenly became What is so complicated and annoying to them is that it was clearly stipulated in the previous contract that they had to **** their young employer back to Naples before this business was considered a mission.
Alexander was now standing in front of the low wall, and he looked carefully at the open space outside the woods opposite.
In the dim moonlight in the sky, you can see a group of silhouettes gathering in the open space in front of the forest. Although the number of people is not clear, there should be a lot, otherwise they will not dare to attack their own team with cavalry.
"Master," an Agri Musketeer leaned over, holding a musket that was significantly larger than the others. When he put the gun on the wall, the posture was somewhat like a gun. " Carlo has not returned. "
Alexander nodded silently. He knew that this man and Carlo were friends. They used to be the best hunters in the farm. Now he and Carlo are both musketeers.
So far, the musketeers used by Alexander ’s Musketeers are mostly modified from the previous muskets, so it can be said that they are different in style. Many muskets are because of the different pros and cons of the manufacturing process. Big and small problems.
This is because he does n’t have so much money for people to manufacture flintlocks alone, not to mention that the weapons used by these musketeers can only be regarded as the easiest way to fire. Although the muskets in this way are indeed better than the firearms. The speed is much faster, but it is not much more powerful than the matchlock gun.
In this way, it is completely unnecessary to spend money on such things.
"Perhaps it's time to seriously consider how to train a professional musketeer," Alexander looked at the musket that was obviously heavier than other people's barrels, but everything had to wait for the immediate difficulties. Just "How is the Bohemian?"
"Adult, they did what you ordered before," the musketeer lowered his voice, seeming to be afraid of being heard by others. "They are careful when they walk at night, and they won't be discovered."
"I thought they were going to have a busy day at night today." Alexander said slowly to himself, then he stood up.
In the cold wind, Alexander was standing behind a low chest-high wall. He first looked at each side separately, and saw the Agrigans gathered behind the wall are looking in his direction, Alexander simply jumped up. Low wall.
"Sir, this is too dangerous." The next Agri soldier shouted with some worry.
"They are still far away from us," Alexander smiled slightly at the soldier, and then he jumped out of the low wall and walked slowly along the edge of the low wall. "Don't be afraid, they are no less French than Bruini. It ’s even worse, it ’s just too sudden, and do n’t forget that there are companions around you. Anyone ’s escape is to throw his own danger to the companion, you will kill the person next to you, and come back in the future After you get home, you will be driven out of the village. Think about whether you still have to run away, and as long as we are not afraid, everyone has a chance to survive. "
There was a loud noise among the Aggris, and people looked at each other, and the tension gradually calmed down.
In the distance, the flashing black shadows moved towards them. During some of them, the shadow of the fast running was obviously cavalry. UU reading www.uukanshu.com
They quickly crossed the gap between the teams, and then extended to both sides in a circle.
Alexander frowned slightly, and he stared closely at a group of cavalry. When he saw them far away, he finally stopped and turned around, and when the river bank started to run along the river bank toward the camp in parallel, his eyebrows could not help but slightly raised.
"Sir, come in!" A mercenary yelled. He might not be entirely for Alexander's safety, but he was really worried that if the employer died inexplicably by the Bracciano River, he might get paid Soaking up.
The cavalry rushing along the river bank on both sides were getting closer and closer, and Alexander then held the low wall and prepared to turn over.
At this moment, he heard a huge roar in the night, and then howling from far and near!
Then a tent in the camp was hit by a huge projectile!
"artillery?!"
Unexpectedly, Alexander with this hand was stunned.
