Chapter 226: Take off

The sound of a loud horn was transmitted from the garrison barracks to the city of Petan, and the sentries of the city of Petan, who had been monitoring the movements of the garrison, immediately trotted to report to their commander. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

Passing layer by layer, the Viscount of Ceylon, who had just finished breakfast, put on his armor with the help of his maids, picked up his sword, and strode towards the city wall with his guards.

Walking quickly up the stairs on the bluestone city wall, the Viscount of Ceylon looked at the garrison that had lined up the military formation on the opposite side, feeling the solemn atmosphere, and his heart sank.

"Is it finally time to take the city?"

"I don't believe that your army of Giggs can still defeat ten in a siege~"

"Come on~Let me see what you've been waiting for~"

"Whether your hole cards can make your soldiers ignore my towering bluestone walls, I'm looking forward to it~"

The Viscount of Ceylon, who was caught up in his own world, suddenly heard an exclamation from the soldiers around him.

"What's that?"

"Actually flying in the sky, is it some kind of large bird?"

"Fart, I saw this thing rise from the other side~"

"Hey~It's flying towards us~"

The Viscount of Ceylon looked at the flying objects in the distance, which were covered in silver and shiny, reflecting the morning sun's rays, which were not yet dazzling, and a bad premonition suddenly rose in his heart.

......

Twenty minutes later, the loud horn sounded in the garrison.

Each soldier followed his own formation, formed a large formation under the command of officers of all ranks, as he was in training.

All kinds of siege equipment have been transported to the front of the army, ladders, rushing carts, and trebuchets that appeared in this world for the first time.

The humans of this world have forgotten about war in the hundreds of years that they have taken refuge in the elves, and naturally they have forgotten the tools used to study it.

Knives, swords, shields, bows and arrows, daggers, these weapons commonly used among the elves became the only weapons in the human army.

There were no crossbow arrows, no spears, and no variety of defensive weapons and siege equipment.

Giggs wouldn't have designed anything like trebuchets, but he was a king, and there were now over two million humans in his domain.

He only needed to instruct him to go down and say, "I need a device that can throw the boulder, and then I will issue a high bounty, and naturally the relevant officials below will organize craftsmen to study it." ”

And for these bounties, craftsmen naturally exert their creativity and hands-on ability.

Thus, the trebuchet was born.

However, since Giggs's strategic focus has always been on the future steel troops, he is not concerned about the expansion of the trebuchet in the army.

It was only symbolically developed that several small, easy-to-carry trebuchets were built.

And because the officials below found out that Giggs was not careful, they naturally gave up this kind of errand that could not be meritorious.

And the reason for this is also the reason why Giggs did not have any siege warfare in his many years of conquest.

One of the few siege battles he had seen with his own eyes how the elven army could easily conquer the dwarven city using magic made him even less concerned about this, and completely focused on the steel dream.

And when he found out that the city of Betan in the information was different from his previous impression, especially the heightened and thickened city walls and the widening and deepening moat, it was too late to regret at this time.

Hind had to be quickly informed that they were reworking the latest aircraft, which had been abandoned because they were not too large to be converted into such a simple bomber.

"Wright, are you ready? I'm waiting to enjoy the fireworks above the city of Petain~"

On the side of the garrison, Giggs, who was riding a unicorn, asked Wright, who was already in the cockpit.

On one side were the guards who were carefully carrying a bomb into the bomb magazine under the plane, a task that Giggs could only leave to the guards who had received a brief training from Alfred.

"Successfully reloaded, Your Majesty, I think I can take off, there will definitely be fireworks at the head of Petan City that make them desperate~"

He gave Giggs a thumbs up and shouted at Giggs as he closed the cockpit door.

Seeing this, Giggs also gave a thumbs up and rode a unicorn directly to the high platform of the Chinese army's main account.

Alaye, Siv, and Owen were sitting quietly on the seats set up on the high platform, staring intently at the plane that had already taken off.

Seeing Giggs coming, as usual, it was Alaye who spoke first, and Sif just looked at Giggs with her big eyes open.

"Is this the secret weapon you've been waiting for? Isn't this kind of plane just used as a reconnaissance tool and a tool for us to ride when we go out to play~"

"Do you think you can apply it to war now?"

In response to Alaye's question, Giggs nodded noncommittally and said in a slightly mysterious tone.

"The plane is just a loading prop, and the real weapon is in the slightly ugly-looking case underneath it, which will allow my soldiers to take the city in no time. ”

"But the only thing that bothers me is that I can only load one bomb at a time, do you know how long it took me to watch those guys carry an ammo?"

It took ten minutes for the boys of the eight guards to load the ammunition into the box under the plane. “

"You also have to put the padding in place so that it doesn't explode directly during flight because of the vibration of the plane during take-off. ”

Giggs talked about the shortcomings of the bomber with a dejected expression, and Alaye couldn't help but laugh when she saw Giggs's expression, and the little wariness she had just had about this flying weapon had been forgotten by her.

Such a weapon, which can kill one's own soldiers at any time, is too unreliable.

Giggs also breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

Even though he has a very good relationship with the two Moon Elves, and it seems that he has had a little ambiguity with Alaye recently, their identities are still from the Moon Elves' advisors after all.

said that it was an advisor, but in fact, Giggs and Alaye both knew the meaning of the Moon Elf Royal Court, and it was just another kind of surveillance.

The court of the Moon Elves did not want Giggs to get out of their control, as the nascent kingdom would provide them with a lot of wealth in the future.

However, Alaye and Seve have been avoiding this in normal times, for fear of affecting their relationship, so Giggs also directly told them about the shortcomings of the current bomber, and snuffed out the little sprouts just now.

Although Giggs still hides something, since Alaye and Seve don't know, then Giggs naturally won't say it.

For example, the new bomber with the engine as the core is being studied, and Alfred, who is improving the power of explosives. (To be continued.) )
