Chapter 250: Infiltrate Paris
Riding on the "well-behaved" Tarask, the Seine River in the distance comes into view.
And the capital of France, Paris, was developed around this river, after a thousand years of expansion, by the fifteenth century, it became unusually prosperous, one side was full of workshops, markets, one side was full of schools, churches, just the Hundred Years' War, the city changed hands several times, was seriously damaged, it will take another seventy or eighty years, and by the time of François I, there will be a large-scale renovation and expansion.
Now, the invasion of Joan of Arc has made the dilapidated Paris even worse, and it has been transformed into a land of war again.
The outskirts of the city were dotted with military camps, mainly from the British side, which had just lost its king, and the number was estimated to exceed 20,000, led by the regent, the Duke of Bedford.
Inside the city, the outermost city wall was in tatters, almost like a girl without clothes, and it could not play a defensive function at all, and there were countless fortresses on the streets, and even airships suspended in mid-air, which seemed to be not so easy to break through.
Tarask landed on the ground, Li Ji and Marda jumped off the dragon's back, and saw that the outskirts of Paris were almost a wasteland, and corpses could be seen everywhere, even including cats, dogs, mice and other creatures, and many large tree trunks were covered with smoke, and the scars of sword swings could not help but make people sigh.
They think about how to get into the city.
At some point, the British soldiers appeared in front of them, and they felt that they were a little suspicious, so they chose to surround them.
You must know that Li Ji's alien status is too conspicuous, and Marda wears a more high-end full-body plate armor, which is the treatment that only knights with fiefdoms in the Middle Ages can enjoy.
Fortunately, the enemy did not mistake Marda for Joan of Arc, otherwise the problem would have been even greater.
"Repent!" Marda suddenly entered combat mode.
Straight punches, punches, swing punches, combination punches, a total of four soldiers, the body did not fly out of the body strangely, a little bit of the blow suspended off the ground, the surface of the body appeared countless depressions, accompanied by fractures, organs ruptured.
When the girl finished the final blow, the four soldiers fell to the ground with a snap, and all of them fainted, not dead.
"Alright." Marda reported as if she had gone home from work, clapping her hands and delighted with her masterpiece.
Li Ji's attention is focused on the new offensive launched by the "Anti-Chastity Alliance", which he has set his own name.
Seeing the soldiers quickly approaching the city, they were greeted by metal monsters lurking in the corners, the tanks of the tanks, and the barrels and muzzles of the black holes that had protruded from the fortress, perhaps the construction of Semiramis.
There was a fierce battle in the two rooms, and what was surprising was that a cannonball enough to level a solid building fell on the soldiers, and there was no bloody scene, and the soldiers actually blocked it with their shields and became disgraced.
Sure enough, the mystery has not completely declined, otherwise such an incredible scene can only appear in modern anti-Japanese and anti-German TV dramas.
However, the soldier blocked the first shell, and in the face of the second shell, his whole body flew out and died, which shows that the mystery is not invincible.
"Marda... It doesn't look like this is the right time for us to sneak in, let's disguise first, wait until night, and at that point, as long as we act quickly, no one will notice us. ”
The girl did not hesitate, or she was disgusted with the trouble of wearing armor, and suddenly returned to the state of a village girl, wearing the common clothes of peasant women in this era, and became a little unimpressive.
"Uh—what a change." The first time Li Ji saw Marda's village girl, he took a closer look, purely out of curiosity, not wanting to blaspheme the girl.
“master… I'll help you find a piece of clothing. Seeing Li Ji's gaze, Marda couldn't help but offer to find a hidden surviving village, and without knowing what to say, he persuaded the villagers to give him a complete set of clothes.
Li Ji disguised himself as a farmer and smeared himself with some mud, which was not so conspicuous.
They hid and continued to observe the engagement in the city of Paris from a distance.
As with the information gathered, Joan of Arc climbed the technology tree for almost three hundred years, and directly used the weapons of the late nineteenth century to fight the enemy, and the number of soldiers was about 5,000; The number of soldiers of the Anti-Chastity League was twenty thousand, mainly traditional longbowmen, plus ordinary infantry.
Immediately afterward, after a period of fighting, neither side had the upper hand, and gradually it was dusk, and the battle came to an end.
In the city of Paris, through the light of the Zeppelin overhead, the city is transformed into a city that never sleeps, and if there is an army that intends to invade by night, it will definitely not be able to escape detection, and even if it is replaced by Tarask, it will definitely be discovered and beaten into a hornet's nest.
It's just that the situation has completely changed when replaced by two people with smaller targets.
Disguised as peasants, Li Ji and Marda, peasant women, did not change their plans, and secretly groped towards the city of Paris.
At the moment when they were about to approach the city of Paris, they saw the patrolling soldiers at close range, the Maxim machine gun directly in their hands.
Thinking that if they were discovered, they would have to face a dense rain of bullets, or even heavy artillery fire further behind, even the heroic spirits with strong physical fitness still didn't like to be hit by these things, so they quickened their pace, and took advantage of the blink of an eye of the soldiers, and disappeared into the city.
In this big city, with its crisscrossed streets, rivers, and buildings, no one will find out if they want to hide.
However, what made Li Ji depressed was that he and Marda had just entered Paris less than ten minutes ago, and unfortunately triggered the trap and saw one after another poisonous snakes running out, making a sound of spitting letters, which seemed to come from a familiar girl.
followed by an angry voice from far and near.
"Semiramis's trap has been triggered, there are intruders, search for me, dare to appear at this time, it must be an enemy!"
Li Ji and Marda didn't have time to hide, and saw more than fifty elite soldiers wearing metal armor and holding machine guns in one hand, led by an arrogant military-uniformed Lori, blocking in front of them.
“master! Fight! Marda shouted.
What does Li Ji want to say, you must know that such a direct fight will aggravate the contradictions between the two sides.
"Priority prisoners!" He had to instruct, and with a sweep of the Qinghua Divine Sword, the barrels of the soldiers were cut off in an instant, making them lose their greatest reliance.
On the other hand, Marda pressed closer to Lori step by step.
"Hey, don't come here! You... Wait a minute... You are a Heroic Spirit... How so? Lori hugged her body and made a frightened sound, and what was even more surprising was that she recognized the nature of Marda's existence.
