Chapter 45: Doni. Zri

As Marin expected, the next morning, not long after, the extra-thick oak door of the south gate of Jävre Castle finally couldn't resist the smashing of the 24-pound iron ball, and was directly smashed out of the big hole. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

And then, it didn't work. Because, at this time, behind the super-thick oak door, there are piles of blockages such as masonry and logs. In desperation, Marin had no choice but to order the artillery to continue the bombardment......

However, at this time, the defenders in the castle were not idle. Edo. Wilmken, who was now directing the demolition of the house:

"Go, that house is demolished, quick! All the masonry and timber are piled up at the south gate......"

The shelling continued, but more and more masonry and wood piled up behind the south gate......

The smashing of the 24-pound iron ball caused the masonry and stone that had been piled up near the wooden door to also smash out of a large crater and extend inward. However, Marin also saw through the telescope the thickness of the masonry inside the city gate......

"Damn, what a thick layer this bastard has piled up......"

Marin mobilized five more three-pounder guns to bombard the large hole in the door in a straight line, trying to smash through the piled up masonry, but it seemed to have no effect......

"If only there was a bag of explosives to blow up the masonry......" Marin muttered.

At this time, although there are many bricks and stones piled up behind the door, they are not glued together, and they are not firmly intertwined. If you stuff a bag of explosives into the big hole behind the door, you can really blow up the masonry. After all, those masonry are just piles of stuff, not buildings.

Without further ado, Marin immediately decided to look for the explosives pack......

Of course, he didn't have ready-made explosives packs. However, there is a powder keg......

The containers for granular gunpowder used in artillery were oak barrels. The oak barrels are thicker, also for safety. After all, if the powder keg is broken and leaks out, and then encounters Mars, something will happen. If you drill a small hole in the wall of this thick oak barrel and insert a fuse, it can be regarded as a barrel explosive. Although it could not catch up with the explosive power of smokeless gunpowder in later generations, it was barely able to make do with it......

So, Marin called for a soldier who knew how to carpenter, collected carpentry tools from the houses, found an iron cone, and began to drill holes in the walls of the barrels......

Then, with linen and bulk gunpowder, a long fuse was formed......

Of course, none of this is the most important thing. And most importantly - who can carry this powder keg, carry it, stuff it into that doorway, and light it......

At this time, Ma Lin needs to call a brave Dong Cunrui......

Marin stood on a high platform and began to recruit warriors with a loudspeaker:

"Warriors, who among you will carry a powder keg on his back, and put it into the hole in the gate, and set it on fire? Whoever dares to go, I will be rewarded! Not only are they rewarded for their exploits, but they also reward women, and there is also a bounty of 200 gold coins to be obtained! ”

"But, Lord Earl, when you light the powder keg, don't you blow yourself up? I won't be able to sleep even if it's a beautiful woman......" one soldier asked innocently, causing everyone to laugh.

"No, I'm not going to let you die. Look, this is the fuse, so long! After lighting the fuse, you'll have enough time to evacuate the gates and wait for the powder keg to explode......"

Everyone came to watch and found that the fuse was really long enough......

"But, my lord, our artillery is still roaring, and if we go up with a powder keg on our backs, will we be killed by our own artillery?" A soldier asked.

"What stupid thing is this kid talking about? If someone goes up with a powder keg, I won't stop firing? In short, it won't hurt you by mistake. ”

After Marin explained to the soldiers, the soldiers finally confirmed that they were not killed in vain. Then, someone started signing up......

"I, I, I...... My lord, I'm brave......"

"I can do it too......"

Under the heavy reward, there will be brave men. After hearing that they would not blow themselves up and would not be accidentally injured by their own artillery, many of the soldiers were finally tempted......

Suddenly, a loud voice rang out:

"Send me, sir! I'm going to be able to do it! ”

Marin saw a soldier roaring at a loud voice......

"What's your name?"

"My name is Doni. Ziri! He shouted loudly.

"What, you said your name is Dong Cunrui? Have you crossed over too? Hero......" When the soldier spoke, the artillery was firing, affecting Marin's hearing. So, Marlin put Doni. Ci Rui misheard Dong Cunrui...... As soon as I was excited, the Chinese language soared out......

This one is called Doni. The beefy soldier scratched his head, he didn't understand what Marin was saying......

Marin also reacted and looked at the man named Doni. The soldiers didn't seem to understand Chinese......

"It seems that it's not the hero who blew up the bunker in my mind......"

"However, the name is so good, it's him......" Then, Marin made up his mind to make this one called Doni. Zri's sturdy soldiers, go and blow up the bunkers...... Ahh......h

"Alright, Dhoni, you're the one to choose. You carry this powder keg on your back, and when you get under the city gate, you stuff the powder keg into the hole in the gate, and then bury the powder keg with some broken bricks that have been smashed by iron balls, and pull out the fuse and lay it...... Then use the fire rope to light the fuse...... Finally, you evacuate the gate as fast as you can, so as not to be blown up......"

Marin and Doni. Ciri explained in detail so that he understood how to do it. However, this one with a surname, Doni. Ciri, the understanding is still very good, and he quickly understands what to do. In fact, he is also a descendant of a knight's family, but after being an illegitimate child, he has a surname, but he is also a commoner, and he is relatively poor, and he happens to encounter a famine, so he came out to be a soldier. However, if you know Braille, you are a little smarter than ordinary soldiers......

Before leaving with the powder keg on his back, Dhoni . Cri asked Marin for a door, and asked the carpentry soldiers to nail a handle behind the door so that he could hold it against enemy attacks......

After all, he went to the cave of the city gate to plant a powder keg, and if the enemy found out, he would definitely attack him. If you throw a brick down and hit him on the head - the mission will fail...... In addition, the wooden gate can also prevent the enemy's bow and arrow shooting at the castle head......

Marin for Tony. Admiring Ciri's creativity, he quickly arranged for soldiers who knew how to carpenter to tear down the door of a relatively thick dwelling and nail a handle behind the door for easy gripping......

And then, the strong Doni. With a powder keg on his back and a gate on his back, he ran towards the gate......

In Dhoni. When Zri attacked, Marin ordered the Kohorn mortars to bombard the city gates to stop attacking. And all the three-pounder guns, continue to bombard the head of the city, suppress the defenders of the city, and prevent them from poking their heads out to attack Doni. Ziri ......

But Doni. Anyway, the defenders found it, and some of the soldiers threw bricks and stones down from the city. Luckily, the rocks they threw down were smaller. Moreover, because the city was suppressed by three-pounder guns, the defenders did not dare to take aim at Doni for a long time. Zri smashed ...... hard Dhoni. The wooden gate above Ciri's head was able to block what the city had thrown down......

After entering the gate hole, the defenders at the head of the city could not attack him. Dhoni. Ciri lowered the door and cleaned the hole in the large hole that had been fired by the Korhorn mortar, pulling out a lot of broken wood and bricks. Then, according to Marin's instructions, he buried the powder keg deep in it, and covered it with a lot of broken wood and bricks. After that, he arranged the long fuse in a "Z" shape in the small space inside the city gate cave and prepared to light it......

Remove the arquebus from his left arm, which he had borrowed from the arquebusier. Ciri blew on the arquebus, and the arquebus head lit up......

Dhoni. Ciri cautiously stretched the arquebus towards the fuse......

"Sneer—"

The fuse began to burn, and Dhoni . Ciri immediately carried the wooden door on his head, and ran away the way he came......

Through the telescope, Marin saw Dhoni clearly. Ciri's movements, admiring:

"A good man, both brave and smart, not reckless, can be of great use......"
