At 2:40 in the morning, the Red Hand Bay Port Sentinel Tower.

Even Joseph, who was yawning and yawning, grumbled and complained, while holding a torch, he climbed to the top of the tower step by step.

As the uncle of the "second-in-command" of the Storm Legion, the nominal deputy commander and real commander-in-chief of the shooting army, he not only has no privileges, but also has a lot of work, not to mention any freedom - he can't sleep in the middle of the night. To run out to check the post, the day before yesterday was Chief of General Staff Karl, yesterday was Fabian, and today is his turn.

What's so special...and there is no freedom and no privileges, the money earned is true, but the price paid and the risks borne are also many times higher than ordinary work; Joseph really doesn't understand why his nephew would Willingly follow a hopeless rebel leader and continue to serve him conscientiously?

Shouldn't a practical person like Fabien betray the first time and wait for an opportunity to escape from this ghost place?

On the top of the solitary sentry tower, the wet and icy sea breeze at midnight whizzed past; under the not-so-spacious walls stood a few sleepy-eyed colonial militiamen, holding their rifles and looking like they were about to fall.

Angrily, he woke up a sentry who was about to fall asleep, and took away the cigarettes and matches in his arms - these have been hard currency since the jihad.

Needless to say, tobacco, even if it can be grown in the cold new world, is similar to weeds; the seemingly simple matches are the real hardships, and there is no match factory in the whole new world.

Originally, Anson had considered setting up a match factory in Grey Snow Town. After all, the value and profit of this necessities of life were limited even compared to salt; it was only because of the outbreak of the Holy War that this unrealistic idea had to be dismissed.

The aroma of inferior tobacco entered his throat, and Joseph's bad mood finally relaxed a lot. He leaned against the wall and looked at the boundless turbulent sea in the dark.

He really didn't understand. It was obvious that the Holy See and the Crusaders had already planned to spare the Free Confederacy. Louis Bernard... that Adelland's son-in-law still needs to think about it for a day.

Doesn't he know that there are many dreams in the night, and the longer it drags on, the more likely accidents will happen... Wait!

Joseph, who still couldn't help complaining in his heart, was suddenly stunned, his cheeks biting the cigarette **** suddenly froze, his eyes staring straight at the direction of the distant pier.

There, in the darkness... the airship that was floating in mid-air seemed to be slowly... moving in the direction of the town...?

The stunned Joseph took a long time to regain his senses, but he still couldn't quite believe his eyes... After all, the night was so dark, even if you misunderstood the surrounding clouds, or regarded the surrounding clouds as part of the airship , it seems not entirely impossible...

He comforted himself like this, and kept repeating "wrong, just wrong" in his heart like hypnosis, as if doing so would turn it into a joke that could be laughed off.

Sadly it didn't.

The airship was still slowly approaching the sentry tower, and the huge size was truly unreservedly displayed in his sight.

"This...this...this is..."

Desperately restraining the involuntary trembling of his body, he only saw from a distance that Joseph, who had never observed at such a close distance, had a blank mind, and even the cigarette **** at the corner of his mouth fell to the ground without realizing it.

He subconsciously sensed an unpleasant atmosphere, but his body seemed to be controlled by other forces, and he couldn't move at all—like a hare staring at a lion, forgetting even the instinct to escape. .

At this moment... the dark dome suddenly cast a beam of light, and the golden brilliance was so dazzling that it was difficult to see directly.

Um? !

The awakened Joseph Tong Kong shrank suddenly, and the compassionate heart hovering above his head turned on all its searchlights, bathing most of the Red Hand Bay city wall in its brilliance, and there was nothing to hide.

Without the slightest hesitation, he decisively turned around and ran wildly. The guards who were half asleep didn't seem to realize what happened or what was about to happen. They still stood there dumbfounded, rubbing their eyes and looking up with a surprised expression. .

Almost at the same time, Joseph, who was terrified, had already rushed to the bottom of the sentry tower, shouting vigorously as he ran:

"Enemy-fire-come-attack...!

!

"

The piercing roar awakened the sleeping sea, and the golden-red giant python surged up from the dark horizon, splashing out thousands of meteors...

Break the sky!

………………

Along with the whistling of the tearing air, a thunderous roar sounded almost uninterruptedly in the port of Red Hand Bay; a mass of flames rose up, rolling up a hot air wave to ravage the shivering colony.

Eighteen-pounder guns, twenty-four-pounder mortars, thirty-eight-pounder main guns, sixty-eight-pounder Caron guns... Solid rounds, shrapnel rounds, blasting rounds, chain rounds... Sixty warships lay across the port of Red Hand Bay On the sea outside, in accordance with the coordinates and instructions provided by the airship searchlights, they desperately poured out their most fierce and full firepower.

On the sea shrouded in darkness, the fierce artillery fire of the warships has turned the sea into day, and the deafening roar stirred the sea, setting off pieces of monstrous waves.

This is a scene that everyone in the entire Red Hand Bay, and even the entire New World, will never forget:

The flames flowed in the night sky, the sea water boiled in the smoke, and the magnificent fireworks ignited the earth again and again, and then in turn illuminated the night sky... The galaxy that dotted the dome came one after another in the world, blooming countless silver flowers and fire trees.

In this unprecedented shelling summer that is comparable to a natural disaster, the city walls and piers of Red Hand Bay are not surprisingly destroyed... Not to mention those brick and wood buildings, stone walls, even if they are steel structures, concrete pouring, There is no possibility of survival under such fierce firepower.

The colonial militiamen stationed in the port position, the Sail City Legion, and the dwellings near the city walls were also wiped out. Except for the few who were lucky and quickly evacuated after the first round of shelling, the rest were all annihilated in the sea of ​​fire.

And even the very few survivors couldn't escape the almost uninterrupted shelling... Because of the night and the over-saturated firepower, the bombardment of the Mujahideen fleet was soon no longer limited to the port, but Continue to the streets closer to the interior of the town, military camps, residential areas, commercial streets... The town hidden in the night is gradually exposed by clusters of firelight.

The raging flames boiled on the ground, and the rolled up flames were like thousands of demons dancing happily.

"...According to the information that has been obtained so far, the two Red Hand Bay militia regiments stationed in the southern city wall and the position, the four private battalions of the Yangfan City Line, and the shooting corps of nearly 1,000 people have all lost contact. ...A sentry who was lucky enough to escape saw the flag of one of the line barracks when passing through the outer city, and it can basically be judged that the entire army has been wiped out."

In the basement of the parliament, Fabien, who hurried back, reported to Louis Hui: "In addition, Joseph, the deputy commander of the shooting army, happened to be on a sentry tower in the outer city when he checked the post. He was temporarily missing, and his life and death are unknown."

"As for the current damage in the city, casualties... I am incompetent, I can't give you an accurate number, but you should have seen the general situation..."

"Yeah, I see..."

The expressionless young knight gritted his teeth and his eyes were red: "I saw it all."

In the dark, crowded basement, there was no sound; only the roar of cannons outside was like thunder.

No one dared to speak, no one knew what to say, and everyone stared at Louis, who said nothing, waiting for the Marshal of the New World Legion to make his decision.

Three minutes... It seems that he remembered something. After being silent for three minutes, Fabian suddenly stepped forward and asked in a very calm voice:

"By the way, I suggest that everyone not gather in the basement of the parliament. Although it is indeed solid, it is still not completely safe in front of twelve-pound or eighteen-pound naval guns."

"What's more, even if this place won't be penetrated by naval artillery, if the council above collapses completely and the exit is blocked, it may still cause everyone to be buried alive under the ruins."

"In order to avoid an accident leading to the destruction of the entire Free Confederation and the top of the New World Legion, it is best to spread out to prevent..."

"winter!"

The silent Louis punched the wall behind him without warning, interrupting Fabian's speech.

"Sixty warships, as well as the most powerful airship of the Holy See, are attacking the small Beluga Harbor at the same time... The Crusaders really look down on us..."

Resisting the endless anger in his heart, the young knight said in a low voice, with every word as if to shred the enemy's flesh and blood: "I was fooled so easily. Are they the ones they deceive at will?"

While speaking, the blue veins on his forehead burst out one by one, and an abnormal flush appeared on his cheeks.

No one dared to speak. This was the first time they saw Louis so angry, and no one dared to interrupt or speak to comfort him easily.

Because of the special nature of the power of blood, Louis rarely puts his sanity on the verge of collapse, and he will maintain extreme restraint even when he is excited or sad.

But at this moment, he can't bear it anymore... Not only is he being deceived, but also because of the fact that he has been fooled, it is very likely that the entire Free Confederation will be wiped out and perish!

Such a serious mistake, what really makes Louis angry is not the enemy, but himself.

The elf **** the side narrowed her eyes slightly, and her ruby-like eyes revealed a real killing intent.

"You... did you already know?"

Trying to restrain his anger, the young knight looked at Anson who was sitting in the corner, biting his pipe: "Just because I guessed that I wouldn't refuse, so I didn't say anything to stop it, right?"

"of course not."

Feeling the sight of the surrounding cast towards him, An Sen sighed in a sigh of smoke: "Just like you, I deeply doubt the sincerity of the jihadist army."

"As for now? Since the enemy has moved the fleet and airship in front of us, it cannot be ruled out that they will directly turn their faces and use force to try to destroy us."

"From the very beginning, we have been fighting against the Holy See forces in the entire old continent. The previous victory was only because the enemy had many internal contradictions, and it happened to be used by us; now they have just reunited and killed us without leaving behind. That's it."

"...just?"

"Yeah, that's all, no big deal."

An Sen nodded slightly: "It's just to fight with all my strength and prepare to die."

The young knight's face froze, and the atmosphere in the basement where the cannons were roaring seemed to have changed subtly.

After a moment of silence, Louis raised his head again and looked at Anson with burning eyes: "What's the plan?"

"Nothing special... The enemy's artillery bombardment destroyed the defense line of our port area, and created a large area of ​​ruins and casualties in the city, which can explain two points: first, the enemy has prepared a desperate plan, and second, the enemy probably did not Really ready."

"It is desperate because of such a dense firepower, even if it wants to destroy the entire city, it is too wasteful. Fire regardless of the consequences and costs. I wish everyone could be allocated a shell, which proves that this is the final offensive of the Mujahideen Army."

"And such a fierce artillery attack did not immediately organize the landing of troops, and even let the airship take the risk of taking on the task of a signal bomb. The firepower is fierce but almost only in one direction, which means that this is not a well-planned offensive, but unprepared. , a daring and crazy military adventure."

Standing up, An Sen tapped his pipe on the table and said slowly: "I guess the enemy will definitely organize troops to land as soon as possible in the next step, but it must be disorderly and hastily; As the only task to be completed, there will be no careful and complicated actions.

"Since that's the case, then we might as well give them what they want... Let the army and some people in the city evacuate quickly, and try to avoid too many casualties as much as possible... Fabian!"

"exist!"

"You immediately organize the entire grenadier regiment and all the shooting corps you can find to control the north and west gates of Red Hand Bay. Make sure that the roads are clear at both places. Any guy who tries to block traffic and hinder the movement..."

"It can be regarded as collaborating with the enemy!" The deputy commander of the Storm Legion said solemnly: "Grab and kill on the spot!"

The merciless words made everyone present shudder.

"What about Red Hand Bay?" Louis continued: "Just give it to them and cut off the rear line of communication of the New World Legion?"

"Of course not, we need to leave a smaller target, but more powerful and more deterrent, to stop the landing jihadist army."

"A more deterrent presence, who?"

"Only one person can complete this task." An Sen suddenly turned his head and bowed to the elf girl next to him:

"That is the Queen of Insel, Her Majesty Freya Mosesfield!"
