Volume Two: The Iron-Blooded Baron Chapter 201: The Bloody Battle of Amondin (24)
Although the pirates in Bangshui Town were caught off guard, in some large compounds, the vigilant pirates still let the soldiers of the Fort Nolandenburg Infantry Regiment hit the nail on the head. These die-hards who relied on high-walled compounds,
It's really tough.
Tuk, this serf selected by Balian from the farm outside Valombre, has grown from an ordinary spearman to the captain of an infantry regiment. At this time, he is leading his group of soldiers.
, besieging a business store.
There are more than a dozen pirates here, as well as those who use bows and arrows. In the two rounds of attacks just now, Tu Ke's men not only failed to attack, but were killed by the condescending pirates. Two soldiers were killed, and Tu Ke's left ear was also injured.
He was half-killed by a pirate who was skilled in shooting arrows. He was dripping with blood and could only be bandaged briefly.
This business inn stores part of the money and food stolen by the pirates. The pirates guarding here are also reliable people appointed by Count Escalade, so when they found out that the enemy had invaded the city, they immediately closed it.
Gate, and use the wooden frame that was built before to defend it.
"What a bunch of scumbags!" Tuke, whose ears were still bleeding after a simple bandage, kept cursing and irritated, especially after learning about the news that his good brother had made a meritorious service.
His good brother was the captain of another infantry regiment named Zhuo Guo. He turned out to be a sword and shield bearer. Before the pirates had time to close the door, he led his team into a large courtyard and killed more than ten people.
Not to mention the pirates, they also seized a large amount of supplies.
It is said that his own mediocrity is annoying, but the excellence of his good brother makes him even more uncomfortable. Therefore, after knowing that Zhuo Guo has made great achievements, Tuke is extremely anxious, and now he wants to lead his men and want to charge again.
This time prepare to break down the door.
As soon as he was ready, he saw his lord, Lord Balian, accompanied by the infantry commander Bess, coming from Baron. Tuke quickly stepped forward to salute and introduced the situation of the yard and the battle he had just fought.
of the process.
After Balian heard this, he looked at the grinning pirates on the wall of the courtyard, and said to Tuco: "To fight a war, you don't have to use manpower to fill it up, you also have to use your brain! Tuco, you do the same.
My old subordinate who followed me is now also a military attaché, how could he just rush in and fight? Didn’t you think of fire attacks?"
Hearing this, Tuke defended himself aggrievedly: "Sir, I thought of the fire attack, but I didn't think that there might be a lot of supplies inside. It would be a pity to burn them out, so I didn't go and burn them.
A courtyard.”
Balian smiled and patted his shoulder, "You are right to care about supplies. After all, we at Fort Noland are not rich either, but aren't the lives of our brothers more important? Are you willing to ask for supplies?
?Still willing to spare our brothers casualties?"
When Balian said this, Tuke's eyes lit up. The somewhat stunned captain finally figured out which was more important. He nodded to Balian and took his men to set fire to it.
Balian often used fire attacks in battles. No matter how stupid his military attachés were, they had learned a lot. During this time, Tuke had some wheat straw soaked in snow packed and placed on several small wooden carts.
After it was lit, it was pushed down under the courtyard wall with billowing smoke, which instantly made the pirates shed tears.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Tuke and the others threw in the oil cans and other flammable objects in their hands, and then set off a few rockets. The yard was on fire everywhere. The pirates saw that they would either become smoked fish or roasted chicken.
, and the entire Bangshui Town has been occupied, the remaining dozen Toba pirates decided to launch a death charge.
As soon as the door opened, the pirates rushed out. They shouted slogans that they couldn't understand and rushed forward. However, although they were brave, they were quickly killed by the random arrows of a group of security regiment soldiers.
There were only a few people left, but they were all killed by Tuke and the others.
The battle in Bangshui Town was going smoothly, and the battle on the pier was even smoother. When Eomer brought two groups of infantry soldiers there, the pirates were drinking and making money on their own ship, so Eomer was not polite.
, he asked his men to throw a large amount of flammable materials onto the ships docked at the dock.
The pirates inside heard the sound of shattering on the deck outside and hurriedly came out to take a look. As soon as they came out, they saw dozens of rockets flying over and oil flowing everywhere on the deck. Then there was a bang and a fire broke out.
The Water Town Pier was plunged into a sea of fire.
Some pirates who were on fire jumped into the water in an attempt to save themselves, but Eomer on the shore would not give them a chance. Under the light of the sky, they could kill the Toba pirates on the water arbitrarily.
For a time, twenty or thirty corpses appeared on the water near the dock of Bangshui Town on the Karl River. Their blood also dyed the river red. This was considered retribution. After all, a few days ago, they
When the Brick coalition soldiers were massacred, the river water was also the same color, but today's color, illuminated by the firelight, makes people feel less scary and has a different kind of beauty.
After all the enemies inside and outside the town were annihilated, Balian had people carefully search all the houses in the town, trying to find his old rival Thorg, as well as the captured Sir Pippin and other Brick nobles, but unfortunately he could not find them.
.
During the search, Balian asked Balin to interrogate some of the captured prisoners. Finally at dawn, a tough-talking pirate finally couldn't bear it anymore and explained the whereabouts of these people.
It turned out that when Count Escalade led the main force of pirates to attack Amundine, Sog went with the main force. At this time, he was already twisted in his heart and wanted to enter the city of Amundine and kill those who followed suit and taunted him.
The county nobles and wealthy businessmen were all killed.
And he killed it with his own hands, so as to eliminate the hatred in his heart. Sure enough, hatred is often the most disorienting thing, but the driving force that supports a person to go on is also hatred. Hatred is the driving force for a person to survive in a desperate situation.
If the motivation is not enough, then the hatred is not deep enough.
Sir Sogg's hatred for the high-ranking officials such as Balian and the direct county is quite deep, so he has a strong motivation that supports him to abandon all right and wrong, honor and disgrace, and seek revenge. This time, he will go to the city of Amundine to bloodbath this witness.
The town that has gained its own glory and witnessed its own humiliation is just the beginning.
If he really has greater power among the Toba pirates, he will definitely make even crazier actions, especially against Balian and Fort Noland. After all, such a former hero and today's traitor,
People who abandon their faith are all because of meeting Balian.
It is precisely because of this that Balian wants to kill this person as soon as possible to avoid leaving more trouble for himself. After all, it is quite uncomfortable to have a person thinking about how to kill himself every day.
