Chapter 70: Meeting the Governor (Page 1/1)

Farrell held out a slap, "My family is a small family, and the patriarch is no more than five wisps of beard. However, because I invented a forging method that was very powerful at the time, and contributed it to the castle lord, I was granted permission to comb five strands of beard. If it weren't for arguing with the patriarch and making a bet, he would not have ended up like this if he accidentally blew up the family's workshop. ”

Xiao Chen patted him on the shoulder and said, "If it weren't for that, maybe you would be on the other side now." ”

"yes. Maybe it's a lucky thing. Sinclair reassured that he had even shaved off most of his beard to reveal a wide chin, and that there were quite a few dwarven warriors in the Marine Corps who had made the same choice as him.

"It's a pity for Lisa. Farrell muttered.

Ansaldo, who was clearly much more cautious than the patrol, was in no hurry to attack. However, he still didn't realize what kind of thing the pneumatic cannon was, and he didn't know that the formation they were putting on now would suffer heavy losses in front of the pneumatic cannon. One of Ansaldo's dwarven mages cast a sound amplification spell. He said in a deep dwarven accent, "Outsider, it was a big mistake for you to attack my fleet. What the hell are you here for? Do you want to start a war between humans and dwarves?"

Xiao Chen also said in the amplification magic: "Governor Ansaldo, I came with a friendly and cooperative attitude, but when I was blocked by your patrol, in the process of negotiation, your patrol team was in front, and we were counterattacking. And our counterattack is also to take it when it is good, you should have seen it on the shore, our strength is enough to destroy your patrol, but we still keep it. ”

"Humans, I've seen a lot of tricks like this. Rely on dastardly sneak attacks to wreak havoc on my ships, kill my soldiers, and then take a moral advantage. This won't work with me. Ansaldo said with a cold face, "Don't think that you can do anything here if you have achieved a momentary advantage. This land belongs to the dwarven kingdom, and no outsider can do whatever he wants here, what you should do is to hand over the murderer and pay compensation, otherwise you will face the wrath of the dwarf kingdom. ”

Xiao Chen was unimpressed by Ansaldo's empty warning, and he said, "Your Excellency, there is no point in saying this now, I suggest that we talk about it in private. I have an old friend of yours here, and I'll explain why we're here when the time comes. I will also show you the evidence that it was your men who first moved their hands on our ship. ”

Ansaldo seemed a little hesitant and began to discuss something with his staff.

Xiao Chen said: "Your Excellency the Governor, in order to let you see that we were indeed merciful just now, so as not to make a miscalculation, I will show you a little bit of our strength." ”

Xiao Chen pointed to a very old warehouse on the edge of the port, which looked like it had been abandoned for a long time, and said, "This old house is almost time to be demolished. ”

Ma Anmin, who was on standby, immediately gave the order to shoot, and more than a dozen pneumatic cannons on the side of the Houyi opened fire at the same time, and the whistling shells exploded on the wooden house. The dwarves had never seen an explosion that filled the harbor, and after two rounds of shelling, the abandoned warehouse had been razed to the ground, leaving only wood and stone shrouded in smoke and flames.

The shelling was far more impactful than the explosion that had just been at sea, and both Ansaldo's troops in the harbor and the merchants and residents who were still watching the bustle were stunned by the sound of the shelling.

The entire harbor was almost silent, except for the echo of explosions and the sound of burning wood.

The power of magic and technology combined with the roar of this ancient port smashed like a hammer into the hearts of the dwarves who had lived in their small kingdom for thousands of years.

Umeda Tian behind Xiao Chen swiped her hands in the air, and starlight emanated from her fingers like mercury, extending a translucent ladder formed of magical light from the side of the ship, all the way to the dock.

Huang Zheng, the commander of the Marine Corps, who had been prepared on the side, led a company of dwarven marines to rush down the stairs, stepped on the dock at great speed, and set up a firing position against the dwarven phalanx of Ansaldo on the opposite side, these soldiers not only held rifles and machine guns, but even ten mortars, only about one-third of the opponent's number, but they were more aggressive than the other party in terms of momentum.

And Xiao Chen and Luo Ling, along with Farrell and Sinclair, also walked down the Starlight Ladder and stood behind the position of the Marines.

Ansaldo watched as the other party got off the ship and set up a formation, but he didn't dare to act rashly. When the mysterious weapon destroyed the old warehouse, he knew that the other party could destroy his entire harbor with that ship at any time if he wanted to.

Now although the principal of the other party has disembarked from the boat, the black holes and holes on the boat have also turned around and aimed at his location. With just one order, he and his warriors were completely finished.

However, to his surprise, there was an army of dwarves on the other side, and the appearance of these dwarves surprised him greatly. Many of them had shaved off the dwarves' beards, some of them had short beards, and some of them even had bare chins. This is a sin for the dwarves of the dwarven kingdom to be imprisoned.

He really couldn't think of any place in the world where these dwarves had forgotten the customs and traditions of the dwarves, and were equipped with strange weapons for human use.

For a moment, he even guessed that these people were the remnants of the prince who had lost the war for the throne, but then he felt that it was impossible, as the prince's subordinates, they could not just abandon their traditions, and then they would not have the support of any dwarven nobles.

Xiao Chen and the others walked to the front of the position, separated by a distance of dozens of meters, and faced Ansaldo and said: "Governor Ansaldo, the first time we met, I am Xiao Chen from the Tower of China, and now I am the chairman of the Tower of China, that is, the leader. There are some things I want to talk to you about this time, and there is an old friend of yours here, I don't know if you haven't seen him for many years, and you still recognize him. ”

Farrell took a few steps forward, staring at Ansaldo with big eyes, "Ansaldo, we haven't seen each other for many years, do you still recognize me? But I'm also old. You must not have thought that I would be able to return here when you gave me to Viscount Moraton, right?"

"Are you...... Are you Farrell?"
