Chapter 277. The ferocity of the swamp baron

For the prestige of the Marsh Barons was still in their hearts, and the Kertuf thieves had been listening to the reputation of this murderous man all the time since the moment they joined. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

The Marsh Baron is really the source of the most fear in their hearts, even if it is the bounty order of Grey Mist City, and the river patrol team in Samar City, it is just a joke for them, but what really scares them is the Marsh Baron's emotionless order, and the swamp giant crocodile he loves the most.

Any water thief who dared to rebel against the Marsh Baron, no matter how great his strength, was easily sent into the crocodile's mouth by the Marsh Baron, and became a snack at the afternoon tea.

I don't know how many water thief leaders who thought they had united the forces among the water thieves and had the strength to compete with the marsh baron, put down the bunch they were tied up and thrown outside the city wall early the next morning to feed the crocodiles.

Ever since they joined the Kertuf River Bandits, they have discovered that the Marsh Barons are truly unassailable and ferocious kings, and they have nothing but the deepest reverence than obedience.

Now, when the fortress of the island in the middle of the lake and the water thieves of the Ketuf River are at their most dangerous, their hearts are beating violently, and their heads finally choose to continue to obey, because they dare not really escape, especially when the marsh baron is not dead, who dares to flee and leave early, maybe the consequences are really unimaginable.

Therefore, they chose to obey the orders of these swamp barons' personal guards, and one by one they gritted their teeth and rushed to the relatively intact city wall, hiding behind the obstacles they could find, and longing in their hearts for those well-known artillery, not to bombard themselves.

About seven or eight hundred water thieves had all arrived in the area of the eastern city wall, each holding their own broad-backed short knives and war bows in their hands, and the same was true of the personal guards, as the captains of the overseers and groups, carefully observing the enemy fleet outside, ready to arrange for people to defend at any time.

However, this group of water thieves still had panic and uneasiness in their hearts, especially when they were close to the area where the city wall had collapsed, and they could still vaguely see that among the huge stones, the original accomplices were now buried in it.

You can even hear a few cries for help from under the boulders, proving that in the cracks under these stones, there may be lucky people who have not been directly stoned to death, and if they are rescued in time, they can still come out alive.

But who can control these guys who are smashed under the rocks?

In the case that they are unable to protect themselves, the concept of the original so-called gang is not in the impression of this group of Ketufu River thieves at all, they regard their lives as the ultimate, as for the life and death of other people, what does it have to do with them, if there are interests involved, they are even enemies between them!

The Ketuv River thieves were originally a rabble gathered by bandits, and it was impossible to expect this group of guys to have the slightest relationship between comrades-in-arms and partners.

"Stop shelling and prepare to land on the island in the middle of the lake."

In this regard, Li Wei is also clear in his heart, the eastern wall of this fortress on the island in the middle of the lake has collapsed nearly 60 meters of the city wall, and the signal for the group of water thieves who are still trying to resist stubbornly has also issued a signal for a general attack.

Beside him, on the decks of the twelve warships, the Barbary pirates couldn't wait to show their bravery, their faces were full of battle fanaticism, and they clenched their scimitars one after another, wanting to let this group of bandits from another world see what real pirates are!

"Attack!"

Wilmot's voice had also sounded, and with the herald as the node, the soldiers on the entire fleet were already ready for battle with the shaking of the warship under them.

The three light Garbary warships were the first to break away from the warship formation, and the two teams of Barbary pirates rushed forward quickly, and the long wooden oars had been quickly rowed by the oarsmen, and the speed of the three warships became faster and faster, and they didn't care about the direction of the fortress in the middle of the lake in front of them, and the idea was to land the soft muddy ground!

This is a beach-grabbing landing, and there is no tenderness to speak of, and even the Barbary pirates who are still on the deck have all prostrated themselves and carefully hid their bodies in the cabin and aft building.

Because they all understand that although the wall has collapsed more than sixty meters, in fact, those water thieves can still have the power to fight back, especially the bows and arrows of cold weapons, which are still deadly weapons for them.

However, just behind the three light Gali, two light Galen warships also followed, but the soldiers on them were not Barbary pirates, but one by one they were holding flintlock pistols, aiming their black muzzles at the town militia on the city walls, and they would cover the fire of these melee troops.

Even at the bow of the five light gales, the 7-pounder guns were ready, and the slightly smaller muzzles had been raised diagonally to the wooden breastplate above the walls, which were also guns.

The 7-pounder gun is generally used as a cavalry gun in the army, which is flexible and quick to support, and is an indispensable equipment for the field army. The 7-pounder guns on these light galleon ships, although essentially small guns used by the Navy in close combat, can also be used as small infantry guns in this real world!

"Bang bang-"

A crisp sound of cannon appeared at the bow of the ship, and the 7-pounder gun, which had already been prepared, fired a volley above the city wall, shattering the masonry and logs above the wall, and suppressing the group of Ketuf river thieves who were on the city wall and watching the arrival of the warship.

And before the group of Ketuf thieves could react, one by one curled up and hid behind the tattered breastwork of the city wall, and a sound was heard in their ears, almost crisp like popping beans.

"Bang bang

The sound of popping beans was extremely dense, and the thieves of the Ketuf River on the city wall were a little puzzled, who was unlucky when these sounds appeared, but this thought had just appeared, and there was already a miserable howl from the collapsed gap under the city wall!

It was the Ketufu River thieves who tried to plug the gap in the city wall, and more than 200 people fell directly to the ground in an instant under the volley of the town's militia, and before everyone could react, the three light galleon warships that rushed to the front had already ridden on the muddy ground outside the fortress.

"Allah is the only one in the world! For His Majesty the Great Emperor of Spain! ”

A frenzied roar appeared in the midst of a light Callie warship, and at the same time, a Barbary pirate with a scimitar drawn instantly flipped over the side of the ship, roaring like a roar, beckoning his comrades and companions.

They are Barbary pirates, ferocious raiders of the southern Mediterranean, devout followers of Allah, loyal warriors of the Spanish Empire!

Two teams of Barbary pirates on three warships 240 people have been frantically rushing towards the shore, they themselves are in a dense formation, although the leather armor on their bodies and the scimitar on their chests do not give them an absolute sense of security, but they still firmly believe that after death they will ascend to heaven, heretics and heretics will go to hell.

"Kill-!!"

The Barbary pirates rushed up like a violent wind, roaring up in the stunned faces of the Ketuv River thieves, and before they could form an array to meet the enemy, they found that this group of pirates rushed up as if they were not restricted by the terrain, and then cut down more than 100 water thieves at the collapsed city wall to the ground!

They were the howling winds of the marauders, and even if the archers on the walls shot arrows at them, and the pirates had fallen, they didn't care at all, but spread out in a uniform formation, forming a standard group formation, and attacking purposefully around the gap in the wall.

This was to open up a foothold for follow-up reinforcements, and their rapid capture of the fortress walls was beyond the imagination of Levi and Wilmot, but they would not give up this opportunity, and with the order given, all the light Galian warships began to move.

All the Barbary pirates on the ship, as well as the town militia, have been thrown into the gap in this fortress, and their joining will be an even more violent wave, and the already demoralized and timid water thieves are no effective threat, and even as the 7-pounder cannon on the ship begins to shoot above the walls, the archers have disappeared!

Although the defense of the city has an advantage, once the city wall is breached, then this advantage will instantly evolve into fear, because once the city wall is lost in the defense of the city, it means defeat!

The Marsh Baron's personal guards barely gathered the fleeing troops, even if they hacked and killed many people one after another, they could not prevent the collapse of the troops, because many of these collapsed guys were water thieves who had escaped from the Battle of Yuqiao River, and they themselves were frightened birds, how could they have the morale to continue fighting?

And all the water thieves are retreating, and they don't know where they can escape in the fortress of the island in the middle of the lake, or even if they can escape the pursuit of the murderous pirates.

They only knew how to escape, but before they knew it, they had finally gathered in front of the throne where the swamp baron was in the main body of the fortress, and at this time they had already seen their once fierce swamp baron sitting in front of the throne, and hundreds of burly guards were also quietly waiting.

The scene was silent for a while, and this group of water thieves who fled didn't know what to say.

But the swamp baron slowly stood up on his throne, his eyes under the iron mask seemed to burn faintly with flames, and some kind of cyan substance-like whirlwind rose in his hands, and with his voice, it seemed to spin wildly: "Now, you can turn back and kill the invading enemies."
