Chapter 23 Raid on Yorkshire
Chapter 23: Surprise Attack in Yorkshire
This stunning blow that cut through the night sky was naturally from Fina's hands.
The girl was standing quietly on a hill one and a half kilometers away from Yorkshire. Under the cold night sky, the red hair like maple leaves was flying in the magic power that surged like water. The bright moonlight shone out, outlining her silhouette, looking cool, powerful and full of seductive mysterious charm.
At her feet, dozens of profound and complex ring magic arrays were pressed against each other, and finally they were like a snake in their heads and tails. They kept drawing magic from the surrounding air and from the land under their feet, forming a huge vortex. Finally, when they reached their limit, they formed an irresistible torrent according to the magic and will of the spellcaster himself.
If magic gathers are invincible bullets, then Fina is a sniper rifle with a very long range.
The strongest gun that fires the strongest magic bullet.
"The first shot is just ranging and adjustment. Now, accept the baptism of death well." Fina's cold and majestic voice sounded. The next moment, the second bright blue light roared out from her hands!
Seeing a whistle tower being hit by a magic bullet and collapsed and broke up, listening to the desperate wailings of the soldiers on duty when they fell from a high altitude, General Red Fox subconsciously clenched his fists.
"What are the magicians doing? And the gunman? Immediately find the opponent's position, counterattack, and kill those sneak attackers!" General Red Fox's face looked extremely ugly, and his always calm voice also had a hint of anger.
For ten thousand troops, these explosions are nothing. Even if you really lose a few teams of troops, you can immediately dispatch the territory of the Seth family. The problem is that this attack breaks through the defense line set up by General Red Fox, and it is in front of the family's future heirs!
"Bo, Lord Potter!" A captain of the Thousand-Man Team in fine armor ran up to the tower in a mess. He didn't even dare to look at the general, so he immediately knelt down on one knee, looking at the ground and said, "Report, we have determined the direction of shooting..."
"Direction? What I want is the specific location! How can I position it so slowly?" General Red Fox asked coldly, his eyes as if he was about to penetrate the knight. "Besides, even if the location cannot be determined, you can still conduct a large-scale saturation attack. Do you still need me to teach this most basic common sense? How is the military rule written? What is the great magician in charge of command thinking?"
"We...are not in range..." The captain of the Thousand People Team replied in a bitter and helpless voice.
"What?" General Red Fox was stunned.
The elemental mages of the Red Flame Legion are famous. There are several great magicians above level 35, and they also master a secret technique that can increase the power and range of spells. This makes the Red Flame Legion's magic attack extremely outstanding, with the maximum range reaching an unprecedented nine hundred meters, far exceeding the longbow.
It is precisely because of this advantage that the Red Flame Legion is the first to master the advantage in most battles.
But now, I was actually told that the little magicians who were obviously from Asrex's territory had their ranges beyond their own side?
How is this possible?
Who can do this?
As if answering the question in Porter's heart, another beam of light crossed the sky like a meteor.
This light was extremely flexible. It actually penetrated into the window of a building and knocked all the magicians hiding in it into pieces. The flying waves of air and stone chips overturned dozens of knights around.
General Red Fox, located above the tower, could see clearly that the other party's accuracy was constantly improving.
"The power of this magic bullet and this way of manipulation, could it be... that Fina Hamilton?" Fenriel suddenly said this without thinking.
General Red Fox was shocked, and countless thoughts immediately turned to his mind. He pondered that way, and even ignored Yorkshire, which was constantly attacked. After a long time, the general finally raised his head and ordered in a decisive voice: "Send the order, transfer the first, third, fourth, sixth, and four thousand-man teams out of the city, surround the sneak attackers, and be sure to capture them!"
Fenriel, who was standing beside him, and the kneeling captain of Thousand People, looked at each other, unable to hide the surprise in his eyes.
Either they don’t take action, and they will have 4,000 people at one time, and they also include the main force of the Guns and Cannons Columns and the Magician Column! Is this the courage of General Red Fox?
As if he had noticed the shock of the two, General Red Fox smiled slightly and returned to his usual calm expression. Then he explained: "Let the daughter of the Hamilton family be used as bait. It seems that he wants to lure us to disperse our troops and defeat them one by one. Although I don't know whether it is true or not, since the Asrex family only has more than 3,000 troops in total, then just send out 4,000 people to crush them!"
Using strength to defeat cleverness is the kingly way of using troops.
After Fenrier's reminder, General Red Fox had long remembered that if Fina was known as a genius, the magic bullet could indeed hit more than one kilometer. As a true nobleman, he certainly knew that Fina himself had, and it was definitely above any victory!
Therefore, he made a quick decision and did not intend to identify how many enemies there were hidden in the darkness, but chose to crush them directly.
If the main forces of the Asrex family set up an ambush, they would directly fight. If it was just harassment, the team of four thousand people would be spread out, enough to catch Fina. During this gambling, General Red Fox believed that he had already sat in the dealer's position. If you want to blame, blame the Asrex family for being too arrogant.
"In front of my Red Flame Legion, your adventure was doomed to fail from the beginning." Seeing another dazzling beam of light shooting from the darkness, shooting through the towers and shattering buildings, the expression of General Red Fox was now full of the conquerors' pride.
"The main force has finally been dispatched." Looking out from the window, Midi saw the scene on the street.
The main forces of the Light Cavalry, Heavy Swordsman, Magician, Gunner, and the Seth family were all out. The blood-red handsome flag embroidered with flames on the Red Flame Legion also rose three meters in an instant, standing in the center of the square formation composed of four thousand-person teams, and came out together.
Just like Fina's inference, even the famous red fox had no determination in the face of the temptation of "capturing the chief heir of the Hamilton family".
But soon, Midi will make him pay for this greed and arrogance.
"Let's start to act, too." Midie said.
Behind him were Sigmund, who changed his job to a gunman, Lilian, who became the Melee Blue Fist Holy Envoy, and the seventy warriors of the Asrex family who were ready to go. These warriors were carefully selected veterans, very good at street fighting, and their average level reached level 20 or above.
Perhaps this is not a surprising number from the standards of adventurers, but it is definitely considered an elite in the army of ordinary lords.
This is the sharp knife that Midi holds in his hand at this moment, and the next moment, it will penetrate the weakest point of the enemy.
"Kill!" Without any extra words, Midi rushed out first.
General Red Fox has set up four granaries in Yorkshire, located in four areas, southeast, west and north, and is extremely scattered.
In addition, although he personally took out his own battle and took away 4,000 main forces, the remaining garrison troops and logistics still had as many as 6,000 people, ten times the strength of Midie.
As for Fina, although it could delay for a while with the extraordinary range of magic bullets, the number of people was even smaller than that of Midi, with only fifty knights serving as guards and reconnaissance.
General Red Fox is indeed greedy, but he is still a famous general in the Principality of Belmar. Although he was induced away, he definitely left no flaws.
Midi's series of guidance only allowed the red fox to reveal an extremely narrow gap.
To tear the crack open into a bloody wound, it must be fast.
And it's very fast, so fast that the other party can't gather or even react.
"Enemy attack!" The garrison soldiers in the first granary immediately shouted diligently when they saw Midi and his party. However, these short breaths of delay were enough for Midi to harvest their lives.
In an instant, the black-haired boy running at high speed actually accelerated twice. His figure became blurred in an instant, as if he had merged into the cold wind of the night. Before the soldiers began to defend, he had already passed by them. The black sword that would not reflect in his hand drew a thin and dim mark in the air like flowing water.
Then, a high blood mist sprayed from the necks of the four guards, like a red fountain.
The blood had not yet sprayed out and the body had not yet fallen to the ground, Sigmund's attacks had already followed one after another.
The newly promoted gunman made a sprint and sprinted a few times on the wall and flew into the air. The large-caliber artillery in his hand spewed out brilliant flames while swinging continuously. Three black powder shells shot out in an inverted "grade" shape, exploding accurately on both sides of Midi, blocking the coming reinforcements.
At the same time, Lilian quickly faced several heavy knights who rushed out in front of gunfire.
These strong men in plate armor have extremely high defense. The explosion of gunpowder does not play much role in them, and the sharpness of the sword cannot shake the tower shield in their hands. However, in front of the petite freckled girl, these defenses are useless.
Lilian jumped and landed heavily. The shock wave brought about by the heavy knights lost balance. The next moment, she fisted out, straight punches, tiger attacks, air slashes, phantom incarnation... The fist power wrapped in the holy light easily penetrated the metal armor, hitting the soft flesh and blood hidden behind it. Soon, the heavy knights vomited blood and fell down one by one.
And Midi, who rushed in the front, has not stopped for even a second since the beginning of the battle.
In the scorching flames, violent roars and manic hot wind, he was like the god of death who harvested life, with black hair flying and sharp swords like light. No matter how powerful the enemy in front of him had, he would be killed by a sword in one encounter.
This is the power of the sword soul after the super-level transfer.
Before Midi even used the ghosts and gods on his left arm, he had already opened a wide bloody road. Soon, the huge iron gate of the grain warehouse appeared in front of him.
Facing the thick iron gate several meters high, Midi's steps did not stop at all. A silver light suddenly appeared in his black eyes. Then, with a sprint, the long sword in his hand slashed out a semicircular arc of light!
Break the extreme weapon!
This is a powerful destructive attack released by the weapon itself completely ignoring the resistance of the attack and with the power of ghosts and gods that surpasses steel.
As the sword light fell, only a crisp sound of metal collision was heard. Three door latches with arms thickness in the center of the iron door were neatly divided into two, and the fracture was smooth as if washed.
"Burn!" Midi ordered briefly. He raised his hand and shook his sword. The blood on the cold blade fell to the ground, looking bright like a blooming rose.
Chapter completed!
