Chapter 45. The Trumpet of War (Part II)
In the dark and damp cell, seven or eight captured Naga were curled up in the corner, their purple scales looking particularly eerie in the faint light of the torches. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Both hands and feet have been locked in heavy shackles, and even a little movement has become extremely difficult, these previously arrogant and invincible Naga are now as dead as ashes, their eyes are empty, and their eyes are flashing with endless fear and regret.
"Bang-"
With a sudden bang, the iron door of the cell was pushed open, and then Chopin's figure appeared in the field of vision of these nagas, escorted by a dozen or so guards.
"Tell me, how far is the Naga Drifting Island? How many warriors are there on the island? How many battleships are there? The calm voice sounded in the gloomy cell, putting a tidal wave of pressure on these bound nagas, but what no one noticed was the anxiety and tension hidden in Chopin's words.
At present, the construction of the city of Paris has not yet begun to take shape, whether it is a basic defensive measure or a real national army, these will take time to accumulate.
Although the warriors of the French Empire relied on firearms and strong quality and discipline to defeat several groups of invading enemies one after another, Chopin could not help but be vigilant in the face of this group of Naga who appeared out of nowhere.
Unlike the previous petty fights, this time he will most likely have to deal with the entire Naga tribe on a drifting island.
Now that the vanguard warships of the Naga have approached, a collision between the two is inevitable, and Chopin has to prepare in advance for the upcoming war horn.
As for the strength of the enemy he was about to face, he had to know in advance.
"You inferior bugs, let us go quickly, or you will surely die when the warships and warriors of the clan come to kill you." A somewhat unruly Naga stared fiercely at Chopin and the others, and there was endless anger rising in his blue pupils, as if he wanted to burn all these ugly guys in front of him to ashes.
swept over with an almost idiot-like gaze, Chopin was also extremely speechless, didn't the other party figure out the status of each other, their power of life and death was completely in his own thoughts.
It's like the weak white rabbit screaming in front of a hungry wolf to tear the other to pieces, and the threat of the other party sounds so pale and powerless to Chopin, and more so, it is just ridiculous.
"Your Majesty, let us interrogate these ignorant fellows." Hall on the side stared meaningfully at the Nagas, and then said with a sly smile.
They are the heroic knights of France, but for the sake of the future of the Empire, they can also become demons who have emerged from the abyss of hell, and let their blood and bones pave the way forward, even if they fall forever.
"In that case, I'll leave it to you." Glaring deeply at each other, Chopin paced out of the prison.
For the enemy, he will not have any so-called chivalry, pity for his enemy, that is cruelty to himself.
Taking a deep breath of the fresh air outside, Chopin's originally somewhat depressed and impatient mood gradually calmed down, and the cold atmosphere and slightly salty and humid air inside really made him unable to adapt to it.
But before he could go far, the bitter, desperate, and angry wails rang out one after another, like a series of burning firecrackers, and as time went on, not only did not weaken in the slightest, but even ...... Growing.
Modern firearms have developed rapidly with the passage of time, but at the same time, various torture tools and torture methods are also constantly improving, and how can these almost desperate Naga resist the ruthless methods of the executioners.
The originally dark cell was now an abyss of demons, and the figures of devils roamed around, and fear and blood enveloped everything.
Hale slowly withdrew his blood-dripping blade knife and smiled demonically at the Naga in front of him, before slowly retreating.
Now that he knew the news he wanted, he didn't want to entangle with the other party, after all, they were brave and fearless French warriors, proud and resolute guards cavalry!
The final victory is still to be fought on the battlefield.
And when the demon-like incarnation slowly withdrew, the Naga inside gasped fiercely as if drowning.
*********
"Your Majesty, the situation is much better than we expected before, these Naga have fled to this sea." In the spacious conference hall, Hall's deep voice kept echoing.
"Escape? What's going on? Hearing the other party's words, Chopin frowned, and couldn't help but show a thoughtful expression.
"These Naga did not originally live in this sea area, but in the East China Sea region, but for some reason, the elf clan that dominated the East China Sea region suddenly slaughtered several nearby races, but their branch of the race escaped by luck, and then risked their lives to break into the West Sea region."
"Elves?"
"Your Majesty, the elves are one of the powerful races of the Endless Sea, they don't like to build cities, they usually live in the forest, they are good at using magic and bows and arrows, they claim to be the descendants of the gods, they are superior to all the races of the Endless Sea, so they are also extremely arrogant, and look down on all races except the elves."
"The elves have a longer life than humans, and most of the elves, both men and women, are very good-looking, and because of this, the price of the slaves of the elves is high on the major exchanges."
Seeing Chopin's slightly confused expression, Sherlay on the side immediately got up to explain.
"Your Majesty Chopin, according to these Naga's explanations, due to the pursuit of the elves, most of the warships and warriors in their group have been sacrificed, and now the defense left on the Drifting Island is quite limited."
"Can you be sure they're not lying?" Chopin naturally sensed the burning emotions and high fighting spirit in Hall's words, but as the commander of the French Empire, he couldn't help but be cautious.
At present, the proud lion of France is far from growing to a height capable of crushing all enemies.
"All the nagas in the cell were questioned separately, and it could not have been a deliberate collusion."
"In that case, then ...... Crush them! With the thick fist smashing down, the horn of war also sounded high!
