Chapter 40: The Battle (6)
Early in the morning, Posey woke up from freezing.
He found himself hanging from the roof, half of the dilapidated room gone, and he could lift it up to see the overcast sky, the cold wind coming in through the window holes.
From time to time, the sound of cannon booming could be heard in my ears.
A young soldier sat in the corner, baking bread on the fire. The golden color gives off an attractive fragrance.
Percy groaned, not only as his arm was about to be broken by the rope, but also from several wounds on his body from being touched by a stray bullet.
The soldier glanced up at him, did not speak, and continued to bake bread.
"Hey, soldier!" posey asked, "will you put me down?" ”
"Don't think about it, it's better to hang up for a villain like you. The soldier laughed.
"Huh. "I remember that the person who captured me last night was probably a Genoese, and you don't have a similar accent." ”
The soldier straightened his chest, showed off his brand-new military coat, and proudly said: "Although I am not Genoese, I am also a member of the Genoese Civil Guard!"
"Hehe, soldier, I think you should get your commander, Sean Connery, I know him well. Percy laughed.
It's just that his state and terrible face at this time make him look unpleasant.
"Shut up, can you meet our commander?" the soldier scolded, "Be honest!"
Percy was stunned and softened in his tone: "Then, please find Clark Nelson, or Arthur Young, they are the people around the Viscount, if you can find Herbert Wells, they all know me, I have important information to report." I'm not kidding. ”
Hearing Posey call out these names accurately, the soldier's face changed: "What's your name?"
"I can't tell you for a few reasons. "It doesn't matter to you, you just need to find one of the people I mentioned, and he will prove my identity." I'm not a bad person. ”
"Bad people always call themselves good guys. The soldier shook his head, and as he said so, he got up, walked to the door, and shouted, "Lord Hill, come here!"
Roland Hill entered, and at this time he and his partisans, with the exception of some of the old and infirm, who had been dismissed after a payment, had joined the Civil Defence of Genoa, some of them in the baggage company, and the elite into an infantry company.
Hill naturally became the company commander, and his company, along with the Model Company, became Sean's reserve force, and the two companies were taking on the duties of guarding Sean's command at this time.
Last night, the front-line scouts caught a job, and before they could be interrogated, they were handed over to Company Commander Hill in the care.
"My name is Percy, and your commander knows me, and I have important information to tell him, so please be sure to convey it to him. "Posey Road.
Company Commander Hill asked the soldiers guarding him, he didn't know who Percy was, but since the other party claimed to have important information, whether it was true or not, it would be better to report it. He immediately went to find Nelson, who was shocked to hear Percy's name, and then Sean found out.
When Sean's figure appeared in the dilapidated house, Percy shouted, "Sean, I'm Percy, Percy Robinson!"
The appearance was unrecognizable, but the voice could still be heard. Sean orders the others to go out, motioning for Nelson to put Posey down.
"Clarke, won't you cut the rope from my hand too?" Posey sat on the ground and raised his hand at Nelson.
Nelson glanced at Sean, saw Sean nodding, and immediately complied. Pulse rubbed his arms and wrists, walked over to the fire, picked up the loaf of bread, and devoured it, ignoring the dirt on it.
Nelson handed him a kettle, which was filled with hot water, and it was still warm.
After carefully looking at the person in front of him, Sean confirmed that this was the real Percy Robinson.
Circumstances can change a person, but it's surprising that someone like Posey can change.
After eating a loaf of bread, Percy raised his fierce face: "Your Excellency, Commander, is it a surprise?"
"It was a surprise. Sean stepped forward, sat down on a broken brick, and handed Percy a cigar, "One?"
Posey lit his cigar with the wood on the fire and took a beautiful puff: "Now sitting in front of you is a wanted criminal, aren't you going to arrest me?"
"No, I heard you have information to tell me, and I'm more interested in this. Sean said, "My subordinates said that you were caught last night and came out of Daguerre City?"
"Yes, I've been a lost dog for most of the past six months, and I've been involved with the rebels. It's ridiculous that the rebels don't ask me where I come from and where I come from, and a wanted criminal like me, under the wing of the rebels, lives a very chic life, and I even earn a lot of money. The more chaotic the world, the more opportunities there are, as long as you dare to violate all human conscience. Percy said in a self-deprecating tone, "Sean, don't you think I'm a murderer? I'm not a clown." ”
"Percy, I'd love to believe you, but you have to know that the evidence is against you. Logically, you have every motive to murder your cousin and nephew. Sean said.
"If you say that, you and Clark are both rapists, because logically you both have tools of crime hidden in your crotch. Percy said angrily.
Sean was stunned for a moment, and then laughed and said, "Percy, you should be a lawyer, your words are sharp enough." If you think you're innocent, why didn't you come to me sooner?"
"How dare I appear in Genoa. Besides, do you know how I got over the days since I escaped from the werewolves?" Posey took off his shirt and pointed to the terrible scars on his chest and face, "In order to survive the drug addiction, these scars were cut by myself with a knife, and only the feeling of pain can make me distract me a little, and then I became the ugly appearance I am now. Sean, I can't die easily, because my grievances are not clear, and my enemy is still at large, how can I give up my life?"
Nelson said, "We adults have always thought that you were wronged. You need to explain why you've been with the rebels for so long. ”
Sean looked at the terrible scars on Posey's body and said silently:
"Posey, I do need an explanation. Listen to what you just said, have you found the murderer behind the scenes, the clown, or the leader of the rebels, the professor?"
"I don't have any evidence of who the clown is, but it should be the professor. In St. Nouvé, the rebels were originally scattered by stragglers, robbing everywhere and without a leader, and it was he who united the various forces of the rebels. This man was extremely skillful, and he came out on top, cleared the internal opposition to him, and sent a member of the René family to Moore City in the name of a fraudulent surrender, and I warned you in advance. "As far as I know, although the René family does not rebel on the surface, this family has a close relationship with the professor, and I have evidence that it is hidden in a secret location in the city of Daguerre. ”
"Okay, the René family's account will be calculated later, these nobles can sell everything for profit. Do you have any important information for me to venture out of town this time?" asked Sean.
"I suspect the professor has a group of Blood Samurai under his command. "Posey Road.
Sean was shocked: "How many?"
"At least three hundred!" said Posey.
Posey explained how he found the secret warehouse in Daguerre to be suspicious, how he personally snooped out, and how he got the information from Mark Wheeler, a broker.
Sean said, "This is a very important piece of information, and in fact I got another piece of information that seems to correspond to this." Do you know that the rebels built a secret tunnel?"
The sage had told Sean that the professor had built a secret passage with an exit in the northwest corner of Daguerre. For what the wise master said, Sean didn't dare to take it lightly, what if?
Posey said: "Those blood warriors are hiding in the northwest corner of Dagai City, three kilometers outside the city, there was a church, which was demolished not long ago. If I'm not mistaken, the exit to the secret passage is in that church, because the demolition of that church was the work of the rebels themselves, and the hands of those on whose believas the professor relied the most, and which on the surface it was now a piece of rubble, which was suspicious. ”
"That's right. Sean high-fived and said, "If our army pulls out the rebel strongholds outside the city and reaches the city of Daguerre, that church will become our rear." If the battle is at its most intense, the Blood Warrior suddenly kills from here, the consequences are unimaginable. ”
However, it is a mystery how these three hundred blood warriors crossed 3,000 kilometers and arrived here from the northern frontier. Of course, they can also choose to take the sea route, and then go up the Longjiang River to reach Daguerre, so that most of the distance is by water, and the risk of exposure is relatively small.
Sean didn't believe that the professor had such a skill, it was more like the arrangement of the wise teacher, and the wise teacher turned against the professor, probably because of the professor's inflated ambitions.
But at least it proves that the Bloodthirsty and the True God are in the same league as the Assyrian Empire outside the country, and if you add the old enemy Bilisians, the Europa Empire will be attacked in the belly, and the evil will be very unlucky.
In contrast, the future south such as Genoa is the promised land.
However, this is not the information that Posey wants to tell Sean the most, and the current Posey has no patriotic enthusiasm at all, which is not enough for him to risk escaping from Daguerre, and the other news he brought shocked Sean even more.
For the sake of safety, Sean arranged for Percy to stay in the field hospital under a pseudonym to do chores, so that he would not be exposed.
After all, Posey is still a wanted man, and Sean's men make up the vast majority of Poitou, and some of the soldiers know Posey in the past.
Some important matters still need to be concluded after the end of the war, and in the face of absolute strength, any conspiracy will be dissolved.
After arranging Posey's affairs, Sean gave the order, and the Civil Defense began to move forward.
A kilometer to their right, the vanguard of General Schmidt's United 1st Division, which had been fighting for two hours, met stubborn resistance from the rebels.
Sean's mission is to protect the left flank of the 1st Division, including clearing the rebel strongholds scattered in his direction.
