As the convoy approached, the soldiers of Haifeng City guarding the city gate could already use the bonfire of the city gate to see the situation of the entire convoy. One of the soldiers roughly counted and found that the series of convoys had almost 20 carriages and carriages. Covered with thick linens, I can't see what is loaded, but the mercenary walking in the front of the convoy is Andy, the head of the Sea Breeze Lightning Mercenary Corps. ,. ,first. hair
The Lightning Mercenary Corps has been established in Haifeng City for many years. Over the years, the head of the Lightning Mercenary Corps, Andy, has escorted goods into and out of the city gate every time. Not only pays the corresponding taxes, but also gives extra money in private Everyone has some advantages, which makes the relationship between the two sides more and more intimate.
And tonight, the generous Andy commander came again, which made the soldiers guarding the gate very looking forward. In the recent period, due to the influence of the Northern War, the caravans to and from Haifeng City have shrunk greatly. This not only made Haifeng City's taxes drastically reduced, but also made these soldiers who worked hard to guard the gates have a lot of extra money.
"Huh? Didn't Commander Andy leave for more than ten days? Come back so soon?" A soldier asked casually, while the Commander Andy walked over with a smile, and pulled it out of his arms. A wallet, said: "Come on, do you really miss me? I am afraid of this?" After that, Andy threw the wallet to the captain of the soldier who guarded the gate.
The captain reached out with a smile, but he took the empty bag, and Andy seemed to be more powerful in throwing the bag. The bag hit the captain's wrist quickly and anxiously, and fell suddenly. On the ground, the pocket of the money bag did not seem to be tight, and the gold coins inside were all spilled out at once.
"Ah!" All the soldiers at the scene were shocked by the gold coins rolling in front of them. The money was almost the top of their usual one month. This made the soldiers who had been poor for months secretly spit out. At this time All the soldiers have forgotten why Andy took out so much money uncharacteristically, they all immersed in the reverie of the gold coins.
Andy still stood there smiling, but behind him, dozens of black shadows slowly outwrapped from the surrounding shadows, and soon surrounded the dozen guard soldiers among them, these black shadows revealed After they came out, they were all mercenaries wearing the Lightning Mercenary Corps costumes, but at this time their faces were very serious. Everyone stood silently behind the guard of the sea breeze city gate and stared at him. Own goals.
Those Haifengcheng soldiers who guarded the city gate didn't even notice this. They were busy buckling down and desperately picking up the gold coins. From time to time someone quietly stuffed the gold coins into their pockets, and the captain pressed down. The voice said scoldingly: "A bunch of bastards, listen to me, no corruption, otherwise, I will interrupt his hand." When speaking here, the captain quietly put two gold coins into himself In your pocket.
The captain of the city gate guard team of Haifeng City was beautifully dreaming about where to go after a change of post. Suddenly a pair of big hands stretched out from behind him, strenuously strangling his throat. The captain had not yet understood what happened. , I felt a burst of pain in his throat, he was struggling desperately, but his key was cut by a dagger, no matter how hard he tried, he could not scream, but he lost his consciousness because of suffocation for more than ten seconds. .
The dozen shadow figures started to work together, and soon these wealthy guards were wiped out. Andy looked at the body of the guard on the ground and waved his hand gently. Behind him, the drivers driving the carriage immediately pulled out their daggers and slashed the linen covered in the carriage. The cloth stretched out through the gaps, and then the whole piece of linen was torn open. The strong mercenaries drilled out of the linen. It turned out that there was no cargo behind the carriage, and it was a hidden person.
These mercenary-dressed people jumped from the carriage one after another, and without the command of Andy, they began to divide the work very tacitly. Every two people lifted the body of the guard to the dark corner of the wall, and there were more than a dozen people. Then quickly clear the obstacles outside the city gate, and then open the city gate of Haifeng City to the maximum.
After finishing all this, it only took 2 minutes, and the head of Andy took a few men to the wall, he held a torch high, and kept drawing circles on the dark wall. A moment later, there was a flash of fire in the distance, echoing the torch in Andy's hand.
Seeing that the contact had been made properly, Andy took a long sigh of relief. All he had to do now was wait for his support to arrive and completely occupy the gates of Haifeng City. The wall of Haifeng City is not very high, but Andy also lacks the necessary siege equipment. If the hard attack is definitely lost, it can only find a way to capture the only city gate of Haifeng City.
The sea breeze city is surrounded by the sea on three sides, and there is a city gate only to the west, and there are flat hills more than ten kilometers outside the city gate, which can be seen through at a glance. There is no way to hide the traces of large troops, so Andy and his master After careful planning, I chose to do it late at night, because the hazy night is the best cover for the army.
Now that everything is in place, what Andy has to do is to wait anxiously. His backup is still several kilometers away at this time. In order to conceal his whereabouts, it is impossible to march at full speed, so he must insist on enough time here, otherwise the plan tonight There is no way to execute it smoothly.
Andy walked down the city wall and saw that his men were taking down the carriage ’s weapons and handing them to everyone. The members of his mercenary group were originally the elite soldiers of Lord Senett. Andy was ordered to lurk a few years ago. Here, the operation of the past few years is all for tonight. As long as we can successfully win the port city, we can completely cut off the connection between the north and the south, and we can also monopolize the north-south shipping, thereby obtaining huge benefits.
However, Andy always felt some doubts. According to the truth, such an important action, how should send some more soldiers, but Lord Senat only sent 5,000 people, these troops are simply unable to reach the sea wind city The garrison ratio, but fortunately it was Lord Rafael who presided over this operation.
Of course, Andy knows that this Raphael master holds the soul eater of the master Sennat, which is the number one killer organization in the mainland. Andy secretly speculates that he estimates that Raphael will launch a surprise attack to seize the city gate at the same time. Let the soul-eater kill the important person of the sea breeze city, as long as the other party loses its command and is in a mess, then even if there are fewer enemies, there is no possibility of victory. Besides, the soldier training of the sea breeze city is good, but the actual combat is lacking, and the combat effectiveness is basically More mercenary than Andy.
While everything was lonely, Andy heard the door opening sound from the rest of the soldiers who guarded the city gate not far away. Due to the sudden incident, Andy and his men had no time to hide, completely exposed to In front of the soldier who came out of the room and guarded the Sea Breeze City.
The guardian soldier of the Sea Breeze City was actually just anxious, so he came out reluctantly, but when he opened the door, he saw a hundred strangers occupying the city gate, and his companions who stayed at the night watched without a trace. The soldier stayed for a moment, but he never dreamed of encountering such a situation. Seeing the strangers seeing himself, he ran towards him quickly, and he suddenly cried out loudly: "enemy attack ! "
The voice spread far and wide on the silent night, but it stopped abruptly. A flying knife was inserted in the soldier's throat and took his life. Andy hit the target with a knife, but because of the large distance, he had to run a few steps to get into the range of the flying knife, so when he hit the soldier of the Sea Breeze City, he was late and failed to stop the other party from warning.
The voice of a middle-aged man was immediately heard from the room where the soldiers of Haifeng City lazily rested: "You idiot, can't you just sleep honestly ... Ah, the enemy attack!" Walking out of his pants, he screamed out after seeing his companion lying in the pool of blood.
Andy was very annoyed in his heart. He could have secretly planned to seize the city gate quietly, but because of such an unexpected situation, he became a strong attack, but Andy immediately made a decisive order and immediately issued a firm order. Support contact, let them speed up.
Actually, there is no need for Andy to contact anything. The screams just now are enough to make the supporter who is still several kilometers understand that this surprise attack failed, and the leader of the 5000 soldiers almost at the same time the screams sounded. With an order to advance at full speed, the 5,000 Senat soldiers immediately abandoned all the disguise, and the sound of their footsteps was particularly noticeable on the quiet night.
The soldiers at the Haifeng City Barracks finally understood what was happening outside, and they immediately became a mess. The sleeping soldiers of the Haifeng City rushed out of the house in a swarm. Due to the tight time, these soldiers were not able to dress neatly, some People even barefoot. Under the command of the army barracks, the soldiers of Haifeng City began to run towards the gate. They did not have a neat formation, and many people did not even hold the necessary weapons, just followed their captain empty-handed. Running towards the city gate.
The game of time running between the army of Senat and the army of Sea Breeze City, the Lightning Mercenary Regiment, led by the head of Andy, was stationed on a horse drawn carriage at the city gate. The Lightning Mercenary Regiment was not large, but With rich combat experience, these years of adventures have allowed them to develop a very good tacit understanding, and this time the battle is equipped with excellent weapons, which makes Andy and his men very confident to block the sea wind city army, for their own side The main force arrived to win time.
