Chapter 108: Scout Battle

Murphy fears long nights and dreams, so he makes an oath with the nobles on the spot, vowing to help them avenge their allegiance to him.

With all this done, Murphy sent the nobles back to rest, their original contract with the Earl of Winton, and now their declaration of allegiance to Murphy would be rebuffed by the last oath.

However, the Earl of Winton is dead, and their vows will not be very strong, at most they will be weak for a while, and they will not die.

Murphy stopped Viscount Kuber, who planned to talk to him about the people before the backlash began.

"Viscount Kuber, you only have two days at most, please gather your lords when you go back, and all of them will move to Remlos Castle, war is coming, and our lords should not become the enemy's burial objects. ”

Murphy was worried, he was a little worried about the lack of time, and he only hated that Viscount Kuber had not cooperated before, otherwise the transfer would have been completed long ago.

"Everything is arranged by His Highness! I'll go back and gather the people. Viscount Cooper bowed to Murphy and was about to retreat.

"Remember! You must take the main road! You must not leave a single step! or the consequences will be unimaginable!" Murphy quickly called out to Viscount Cooper and emphasized again.

"Remember, Your Highness!"

With a wave of his hand, Viscount Cooper hurriedly boarded his carriage and galloped south.

Several of his vassals also hurried back to cooperate with Viscount Kuber's work.

Murphy let out a sigh of relief, and the next thing was to wait for the war to come.

As the sun sets, the fiery clouds are constantly rolling in the western sky, as bright red as blood, as if depicting an epic war.

Night falls, but tonight is destined to be a sleepless night.

A group of scouts, dressed in black armor and numbering forty or fifty men, rode horses from the south.

"Captain, there's a situation, there's a voice from the south!"

On the fortress of the South Gate Pass, a member of the "Leviathan" dressed in cloth armor and holding a flintlock pistol reported to the captain of the team, Knight Colin.

"Tell me to go down, all the soldiers are ready to fight, send two men to the south to observe, and no one will be exposed until I shoot, remember my words!"

When Knight Colin heard this, his face immediately became solemn, and he hurriedly ordered the warriors to prepare for battle.

"Yes!"

Knight Colin unfastened the cloth bag he was carrying, and it contained a rifle that looked like a flintlock pistol, but was not a flintlock pistol.

That's right, it's a sample gun developed by the Murphy couple, and there are more than fifty real bullets next to it, and the fixed shell made of griffin bark is extremely tough, and I don't know how much better than the paper shell.

As for why not use metal to order, because it is extremely scarce now! Those metal shells are all put into the production of grenades and shells, and with the current level of science and technology, the production of copper bullets in the assembly line is not up to standard, and it takes Carolon to finely grind to make a few, and the cost is too great.

So I had to make do with cheap and affordable griffon bark.

Murphy and Carolon took the time to build a total of three needle pistols, named "Peace", one of which was sent to the "Leviathan" and handed to Knight Colin to help him test the actual combat effect.

Knight Colin followed the order given to him by Murphy, pulled the rear bolt, stuffed a bullet, and pushed it back, thus completing a reload, which was much faster than a flintlock pistol.

Pressed with the bullet, Knight Colin walked into the fortress.

Due to the lack of fire, and the low visibility at night, the members of the "Leviathan" were well concealed, so the scouts did not notice the fort on the hill, only a cylindrical bulge.

"Three. ”

"II. ”

"One. ”

"Fire!"

The Knight of Colin, who was hiding in the fortress, took advantage of the faint moonlight and his own strong eyesight to aim at the scout captain who was the leader of the team below.

The trigger was pulled, and the firing pin hit the primer cap of the bullet, detonating the gunpowder in it, and the strong force pushed the bullet out.

"Bang!"

With the sound of the gun, the bullet spun and flew out of the chamber, and the ballistic trajectory rushed straight towards the unsuspecting scout captain.

When he was about to touch his first layer of armor, the surface of the bullet lit up with a layer of golden fluorescence, which was a layer of "armor-piercing" enchantment, specially designed to fight against all kinds of armor, although it was only a second-level enchantment, but it was enough to deal with the unsuspecting scout captain.

The bullet pierced through the scout captain's armor, broke through his inner armor, and opened a small hole in his chest and burrowed in.

The scout captain only felt as if he had been hit in the chest with a giant hammer, and the whole person was directly thrown down, and the chest continued to bleed outward, and he couldn't stop it.

The horse was frightened and ran backwards frantically, the scout captain didn't have time to move, and was directly thrown off by his own warhorse, but what was even worse was that one of his feet was still hanging on the stirrup, and he couldn't take it off at all, and the upper body dragged on the ground was suddenly trampled to bloody flesh and blood.

Even though the horses were military horses, they had never heard a gunshot, and when one horse ran, the others followed.

Suddenly, with a shout, there was a sound of a row on the hillside, and many scouts had no time to dodge, and eight or nine of them were put down in the flash of lightning, and several horses were also put down.

Before it was over, in less than three seconds, there was another gunfire on the mountain, and several people were knocked to the ground.

These scouts can be called elite, and they are still a little flustered at this point, but they haven't collapsed yet.

Then another wave of gunfire rang out.

The scouts were on the verge of collapse, and they hadn't even seen the enemy, and their side had already lost half of the battle.

"All bayonets!

This was the first bayonet charge of the "Leviathan Special Forces", and they slid down the hillside and rushed to the scouts on the verge of collapse, surrounding them.

Seeing that the enemy army finally appeared and surrounded them, the remaining scouts no longer thought of escaping, their war horses were no longer obedient, and they could not command at all, so they simply grabbed their sabers and knight's swords, and fought again.

"Kill!"

A rebel scout's eyes turned red, and he raised his saber and charged at a member of the Leviathan, breaking the silence.

The warrior didn't speak, but raised his gun to block the slash of the saber, and the two warriors next to him reacted quickly, picking up their bayonets and stabbing them in the scout's chest.

The bayonets were also enchanted by the enchantment machine, and had the function of armor piercing, directly piercing the scout's heart, and blood burst out.

The battle situation was chaotic, and from time to time there were sporadic gunshots, each of which took a human life.

After several minutes of fighting, the scouts finally collapsed, and with the close cooperation of the "Leviathan" team, they ate all the scouts without losing a single person.

Rebel scout squad, all wiped out!
