Black Wizard Zhu Peng

Vol 11 Chapter 22: : If you have a knife in your hand for 1 day, kill the world

Anina Boyer may have an outstanding talent in conspiracy and mentality because of her temperament, but she is undoubtedly a novice in military strategy.

Therefore, even though Count Magali sent her three Virginia cavalry and two Virginia knights as assistants, Annena failed to apply it perfectly, so that she was far from Djerber Castle. At that time, Zhu Peng knew his own arms configuration:

With a force of 172 people, in addition to the original 150-man Vigia Archer, she also successfully recruited a 16-man pirate army, plus herself and five cavalry. .

One hundred and fifty infantrymen, fifty archers, thirty four-level Vigia archers, twenty fifth-level Vigia sharpshooters; one hundred infantry, thirty five-level archers Bingweijian guards, seventy fourth-tier Virginia infantrymen, this configuration of forces is basically equivalent to that the tortoise is crushed by a big stone. From the siege company training to Annana accumulating military experience, brushing the resume, all are together live.

On the other hand, Zhu Peng’s Fort Djerber, with a 130-man troop, eight hired crossbowmen, and 22 hellhounds that lowered the morale of the army, both quantity and quality are far inferior to the opponent, fortunately there are. The defensive side has geographical advantages and morale available... But it is still difficult to win the opponent. The quality gap between the two sides in terms of fighters is really too wide.

Zhu Peng holds the main body of the 130-man bow squad, and counting the ten third-level soldiers promoted by the pirates last night, it is only thirty Virginia guerrilla shooters and ten senior Virginia soldiers. , And ninety first- and second-level mixed "battlefield cannon fodder" Virginia recruits and Virginia light infantry.

With such a lineup to meet the elite troops in Anina's hands, even if there is an arrow tower to assist the defense, it is only a manipulative vehicle.

On this continent, there may be smart strategy/tactical masters who can use their own military talents to forcibly reverse this inferiority of the battle, but this does not include Zhu Peng, who is a martial artist, even after reading a few books of war to introduce martial arts. The accumulation of all aspects is not enough.

There was only a little more than one day left before Anina led the army to the real soldiers.

…………

Yatiman deserves to be a person of luck. Although he is far from being a child of planes or a child of luck in Calradia, at least he can be regarded as a master of luck for a while.

Zhu Peng dug him out from the tavern in Djerber Castle and consumed a little source energy to take on the task from him. After completing it, he reaped a lot of rewards, not just the construction of the arrow tower that belongs to him.

The addition of twenty-two Hellhounds and the acquisition of the three "strategic treasures" of Hellhound Treasure can be said to have an indirect connection with Yatiman, increasing Zhu Peng's strategic strength.

On the training ground of the barracks late at night, the sky was already dimmed to the point that no one practicing youth army could be seen.

Zhu Peng wore a red cloak and bowed his bow to shoot an arrow. Although each arrow was not powerful, none of the arrows hit the target. The arrow tip had a faint sparkling red color. Zhu Peng shot one after another. After the twelve arrows, the strength was exhausted, but the arrows fired accumulated heat and ignited the entire target in the distance. The flames burned fiercely, illuminating a small area in a short time.

The horse made Lu Fei swiftly, and the bow is like thunder.

The ancient Chinese history books say that a person's martial arts is superb, which is just three words: good at bowing horses!

Zhu Peng's bow archery is also using the strength of the bow and arrow to counter-shock himself and improve his physical fitness. This is a technique for practicing kung fu. If he is on the battlefield, he will still use the best crossbow arrows to shoot the enemy more powerfully. . Because Rod Custer couldn't pull a heavy bow at all at this time, and the arrows fired by ordinary hunting bows on the battlefield could not penetrate through high-quality armor, so there was no lethality.

The three strategic treasures, the blazing cloak, the stone wooden shield, and the blazing jewel, are all worn by Zhu Peng at this time, feeling their effects:

The blazing cloak, a magic item made of underground spider silk as a base material, is already quite extraordinary after many years of fire magic in the Hellhound's Nest:

Long-range arms fire attack blessing is +1, and Zhu Peng now shoots twelve arrows at the burning target. It is also because of its effect. The firepower cannot be underestimated... However, Zhu Peng does not like it much.

The reason is very simple. Wearing a big red cloak alone on the battlefield is like a big red envelope for New Year's greetings. Isn't it just begging others to gather fire and shoot?

In contrast, the stone wooden shield, which looks like a fossil of ancient round wood, is more in line with Zhu Peng’s aesthetic. The small circular shield tied to the left elbow is very inconspicuous, but the practicality of combat is a little worse. As a shield, the harder it becomes. Well, on the contrary, the harder it is, the more brittle it means that there is no shock absorption effect.

Really good shields are resilient, and in the words of Chinese martial arts, it means that the strength and the softness combine to be tenacious.

The stone wooden shield is really a solid stone shield. Zhu Pengruo really used it on the battlefield to meet the frontal blows of heavy weapons. I am afraid that the heavy blow will follow and his arm bones will also be broken.

However, this is a full defense +2 strategic treasure, not to mention that it is just a little weaker in protection. It has no protection. Zhu Peng also pinches his nose to recognize it. The defensive strategic treasure fits his talents. Those who come are always willing to hang up a strategic treasure on the defensive side to improve the comprehensive combat power of the side.

As for the Fire Gem (pseudo), in the words of the old butler John Watson, this is a treasure that can be used as a family heirloom. It is of great value in the long run, but Zhu Peng is more concerned about the effect of the spread of magic power after it is "smashed." , Not long-term value.

As Zhu Peng adjusted his breath after shooting his arrows, a soldier came to his side and whispered to report after giving a salute.

"...Unexpectedly, there are unexpected gains, I see." Breathing out gently, placing the wooden bow and quiver aside, Zhu Peng turned and followed the soldier to the prison of Fort Djerber.

It is still the torture room that I visited last time, but the Junior Army instructor Matthew who was originally locked up here has been secretly strangled. Old John had already waited here first, and a man was tightly tied to the cross-shaped wooden frame of the torture room, but he was one of the six pirates captured before. At this moment, he was also very scarred and battered. The air is out of air.

Zhu Peng was not surprised by the scene before him, because the order he gave to Old John was: "Severe torture to extract a confession until death..."

As for torture to extract a confession? Zhu Peng actually didn't know.

Djerber Castle is not too close to the sea. There is also Albuquerque in the middle. A group of 30 pirates will come over quietly. Zhu Peng is quite confused about this. If it's normal, it might not be much, but because it is directly related to Yatiman's mission, Zhu Peng, who is afraid of missing a certain branch, subconsciously pays more attention.

The six pirates were caught. The battle was on. There were no ransom merchants or slave traders in Djerber Castle. Zhu Peng didn't want to recruit a few of them to affect his morale, so he gave Old John the order in the preface, anyway. Pirates don’t have human rights. It’s best to be able to ask for secrets. Even if they can’t be asked, they don’t even have any secrets. For a nobleman, killing six pirates hiding in his own territory is not counted. Something.

In Calradia, this kind of thing is not legally restricted, and it does not constitute a personal moral flaw.

However, after Old John personally supervised the death of five pirates in succession, the sixth pirate, who seemed to be a small boss, completely collapsed under torture and death threats. He said he knew a big secret, one could be in the Nord Kingdom. Change a castle, and even stir up the great secret of the coastal situation!

"You want me to come, I have already come. Tell me, what's the secret."

In the torture room, when he walked in front of the man, naturally the head of the cell moved a chair that had been wiped clean and placed it behind the lord. Zhu Peng sat down and said.

"...Huh...huh, I want a lord's pardon, the identity of a Virginia civilian, and three thousand dinars." The little pirate leader who was tied to the cross wooden frame breathed for a long time and said. Very much requested.

"Very greedy... Lord's amnesty, civilian status, three thousand dinars... What secrets can you little pirate know, dare you ask me for this price?" Taking off his leather gloves, Zhu Peng looked at his slender and fair complexion. He didn’t get angry, but he asked with a smile:

"The legendary pirate treasure? The long-lived goddess legend? The mermaid or the treasure island with peerless appearance in the deep sea... will it always be the chart of the fountain of eternal life?"

"...Neither, it’s the Pirate King Nabal, the pirate promotion system he found, the second rank six arms in the entire Calradia continent... It’s okay to give Nabal to the Royal family of Nord, and it’s okay to change a castle. We originally planned to use this secret to build a pirate kingdom... ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, it seems that he has revealed the secret to himself, feeling very Of regret and pain.

However, he couldn't survive the torture, coupled with the fact that he opened the bow without turning back the arrow, and after two dry howls, he finally chose to continue speaking:

"Give me an amnesty for the lord, and give me the worth of a commoner from Vaegiya, so that I can go to Kulao to open an iron smelter and live incognito as a small boss...otherwise you will kill me and I will never again One more word, because I can’t escape the pirate’s sphere of influence, I’m still a dead word after all, I’m afraid it will be worse than death in your hands."

(It should not be fake...)

This was the first thought that came to Zhu Peng's mind, because he noticed that in the consciousness of the man before him, the two words pirate and pirate were clearly distinguished, but this was an agreement.

Had it not been for a more detailed classification, a pirate who had not received any training in writing would not have been so clear.

This is similar to that of Huaxia in China and Swadia in Swadia. The words are different and the meaning is similar. Except for scholars of literature and historiography, there are not many differences in these titles...

"I can’t give you three thousand dinars. If it’s normal, it’s okay to sell three thousand dinars for your secret. However, I’m also short of funds for some things recently. I can give you five hundred dinars. Going south, whether it's to Swadia or even to the Sultan of Salander, you can avoid the revenge of the pirates, and go as a wandering merchant."

Rod Custer's words made the pirate leader very disappointed, but his heart was also relieved a lot. If the other party did not say anything and promised him all the conditions, he might worry that the other party would break his word instead. Now, shouldn't worry about a nobleman breaking his promise for 500 dinars?

"The pirate king Nabal, he fought a big battle with the lord of Brugaburg off the coast of Vigia, and both sides suffered a lot of casualties. As a result, when Nabal was at its weakest, he was kicked by the cavalry led by another Vigia nobleman. Camp, and didn’t even run away. Fortunately, the Vigia nobleman didn’t know the identity of Nabal. After a while, whether it was sold to the ransom merchant or slaver Ramon, Nabal would go well. Returning to the coast... However, the Vegia nobleman suddenly fought with Nord’s nobles, and Nabal was not released for a long time, so a pirate came to the Vegia nobleman’s fief. Chance to rescue the Pirate King."

"Don't you mean... that Vigia nobleman named William Custer?" At this moment in the torture room, everyone from Old John to Zhu Peng was confused, but the opposite man nodded slowly. But everything is settled.

The first-level prison can hold 50 prisoners, the second-level prison can hold 100 prisoners, and the second-level prison in Gerberburg holds 88 prisoners, of which 82 are pirates, Zhu Pengzhi Therefore, the elite and strong army who knew that they had lost to Annina was still stable, because he planned to surrender all the 88 prisoners in the prison when necessary, and drag them out for a wave.

However, this is not an easy task. Let’s not talk about the damage to the discipline and morale of the Djerberburg army by the addition of a large number of pirates. It is whether Zhu Peng can successfully surrender and can he suppress this group of wild beasts after the successful surrender. Pirates, these are two things.

The Nord's pirates are not inferior to the mainland's third-tier infantry. After they are fed and equipped with armor weapons, if they take a counter-attack, they will first occupy Jelpburg, and Zhu Peng may have no way to escape. .

"Master, if everything he said is true, we handed over the pirate king Nabal to the Nord royal family, and we no longer need it as a city, as long as the Nord royal family admits that we will not pursue our occupation of Albuquerque. , That’s enough, and even we can turn our backs on Vigia and join the Nord Kingdom camp.” Old John knew that the Japanese army was under pressure, and he had accumulated tremendous pressure in his heart these days. At this moment, Beside Zhu Peng, whispered softly.

"No, Djerberburg is the foundation that my father spent half his life's painstaking efforts to strike down. If you want to take it from my hands, you can, with enough blood and life to fill it." Standing up suddenly, Zhu Peng took out the long The sword cut the ropes around the pirate leader's wrists and dragged him into the prison.

"Nabar, I am Lord Castel of Djerber Castle. I can't think of a pirate king who has been wronged for so long in such a simple and dirty place... I want to establish a pirate kingdom and be a master of the sea. King, is he still refusing to show up after being called to break Xingzang? Is it necessary for the traitor in my hand to identify you?" Holding the sword in his right hand, pulling the hair of the screaming pirate leader in his left hand, howling at him He dragged him down the aisle of the prison.

Zhu Peng scanned the strong, dirty, shaggy men in the prisons on both sides. These Nord pirates shouted angrily at the traitor who was dragged upside down, spit, smashed things, compared to the enemy. , Undoubtedly the traitor is even more resentful. The surrounding cell leaders ran out and beaten with weapons to suppress the riot, until a huge and sturdy one-eyed man with the breath of a lion stood up, and he pushed aside The subordinates who stood in front of him looked directly at Zhu Peng, and the violent pirates in the prison fell silent.

This scene let Zhu Peng know that the man in front of him really has a high reputation among the pirates.

"Noble... what do you want from Nabal? Money, or power?"

"Puff..." Zhu Peng didn't answer the pirate king's question immediately. He turned around and pulled the pirate leader's hair, struck his throat with a long sword in his right hand, killing him like a chicken. .

"I... just want to make a deal with you." Released his left hand, holding a **** long sword in his right hand, Zhu Peng looked directly at the one-eyed one of Barr, as he said.

……Snakes can’t do without a head, a scattered group is undoubtedly difficult to control, but when the group itself has an organizational structure, everything becomes traceable; the vacuum of human power will eventually be filled, from ancient times to the present. , In any era, any plane, almost never exception...

A day and a half later, Anina led her elite troops "long overdue" to Djerber Castle.

Zhu Peng on the city wall noticed that the size of her troops was larger than the information he had obtained. It seemed that more wandering armed forces were suppressed and subdued by Anina. This woman's personal charm and persuasive ability must be quite high, and she It seems to be proud of it, completely ignoring the actual loss of combat power caused by putting pirates and even robbers into the elite troops.

The military strength under the generals is actually not that the more the better, the military proverb that there are not too many soldiers, Anna is obviously not blessed to hear.

"Rhodes, let’s talk about it. Your father arbitrarily smashed Albuquerque in the Nord Kingdom. This kind of thing will definitely cause a conflict between the two countries. You come to me and I will intercede with my uncle for you, although it is possible. There will be some punishment, but I promise you and Uncle William will not have lives...Oh."

With a wave of Zhu Peng's arm on the city's head, a rain of arrows fell from the arrow fort, which was full on both sides, and the red light flickered on the flame cloak, and a faint flame ignited at the tip of the rain falling arrow.

One of the five knights behind Anina, the warhorse under him was even shot directly by the large arrow rain. A group of six people stepped back in embarrassment and watched Anina's fierce swordsmanship with swords and fire arrows. Zhu Peng shook his head slightly, and raised a question mark in his heart for many memories of Rod Custer.

At this point, the two sides had nothing more to say. They lined up troops to log and siege the city, and the tragic battle officially began.

Behind Zhu Peng followed six two-handed swordsmen in full body armor. These were the strongest infantry soldiers in the tavern mercenaries: professional samurai.

Starting from peasants, hiring sentries, caravan guards, mercenary swordsmen, all the way to professional samurai, becoming a fifth-level arms, the combat power is not inferior to the same-level arms of the mainland countries, just buying these six people cost Zhu Peng two Thousands of dinars, the 10,000 dinars saved by William Castell are all depleted today.

Even what Old John called the heirloom treasure: the first-level fire gem (pseudo) was smashed by Zhu Peng, and the spread of magic power greatly increased the experience of one hundred first-level and second-level soldiers within the range of Djerber Castle , Which greatly increases the experience gained of one hundred first- and second-level soldiers within the range of Djerberburg, and the action time is 24 hours.

As the magical power spread after the Fire Gem was smashed, Zhu Peng held the main body of the 130-man lunge unit, the 90 battlefield cannon fodder bear the brunt, and all forty Virginia recruits were promoted to the Virginia light infantry. Fifty Virginia level two light infantry, all promoted to level three, Zhu Peng instructed them all to be transferred to Virginia guerrilla shooters. After replacing them with a large amount of equipment and equipment stored in the Jelbor Castle, they were barely enough. A category worthy of use.

Eighty Virginia guerrilla shooters and eight mercenary crossbowmen are distributed on both sides of the arrow tower and the city wall, pouring firepower from a high position to shoot opponents, Viscount William Custer was born as a mercenary, with a strong sense of anxiety, and an ordinary nobleman. I don’t care about enjoyment and pomp. All the money saved is used for army expansion. The entire Djerber Fort has sufficient military supplies and food reserves. With the output rate of these 88 shooters, even Shooting for three days and nights in a row will not worry about insufficient supply.

The siege was at the peak of each other’s killings at the beginning. Anina arrived last night. She actually asked her subordinates to build a siege tower overnight, and then pretended to run down to the city to demand Rod Ka before the real siege. St. Xiancheng... Just after being shot back, she pushed the Siege Tower Bridge out of the woods the next moment. She really didn't remember the overnight hatred, she planned to report it on the spot.

Before the infantry pushed the siege tower bridge to actually put up the wall, it was originally when the defender leaned the arrow to kill the opponent unscrupulously. However, the 30 Vigia archers behind Annena and the 20 Vigia marksman The situation has been abruptly turned into a mutual offensive.

If there is no regret that they are violently pumping the two arrow towers of Yatiman, these fifty elite Vigea archers can even complete the reverse fire suppression of the next, which means that their archery ability has exceeded the geographical advantage. The disadvantage of, can forcefully suppress the defending shooter above the city.

However, the arrow tower itself has a reverse arrow defense design. The archers hidden in the two arrow towers can "relatively" kill the enemies in the city, while the archers below are very awkward when they shoot backwards to kill the invisible enemies in the arrow tower. Difficulty, condescending and the double defensive advantages of the arrow tower have closed the level gap between the two shooters' lineups, and even because of the advantages of numbers and logistics supplies, the shooter lineup of the defender of Djerberburg gradually has a certain advantage.

Although she was very surprised by this scene, Annena only admired the wealth of the family that Viscount William left to Rhodes. She didn't care about this small loss now, because the Siege Tower Bridge had already been connected to Gerber. At the head of the fort, hundreds of elite infantry under her command can easily take down the castle. Then she will peel Rod Custer, soak him in a wine barrel and give it to Viscount William to help her uncle smooth it. This hasty hero who is faintly as famous in terms of military talent.

However, the cards in Zhu Peng's hand gave Annina a blow.

More than eighty strong blonde and blue-eyed Nord men, wearing heavy armor and wielding a sharp axe, met the Vigia infantry on the wall of the narrow tower. The axe and heavy javelin smashed in a wave like a storm, and then a wheel. Swinging his big axe, especially the one-eyed, rough-and-tough man, his strength is beyond Anna's understanding of pirates. The heavy axe that tore through the wind broke the body of the Vegia infantry like tearing a letter. The leather armor easily beheaded them.

The fierce pirate king Nabal was so fierce that he drove out of the city and jumped onto the narrow wooden tower bridge that only allowed two or three people to move forward. After slaughtering three or five Vigia infantry like a tiger, he stepped forward. The pirates retreated to the city defenses. When the pirates mixed in the Zhivache infantry saw the unilateral Nabal, they turned around in fear and fled. Their chaos even squeezed some Virginia infantry off the tower bridge. The height of the five-story building, after the crash, even if Calradia's body was strong and survived, he definitely didn't have to think about continuing to participate in this battle.

This is the disadvantage of mixing low-level arms into the elite. Of course, there is no abnormality in the tailwind battle. Even the elite arms can gradually bring the low-level arms into the elite, but they fight evenly matched death battles, even against the wind. At times, the collapsed low-level units will confuse the elite formations already on their side, bring morale down, and even lead to retreat.

Anina's vision is correct. From Zhu Peng's source quality perspective, the pirate king Nabal is a veritable sixth-level unit, a strong hero template.

The original pirates were the two levels of "Nord Peasants and Nord pirates"~www.readwn.com~ With the natural physique and sophisticated equipment of the Nords, they became the strongest bandit organization in Calradia. Even a certain degree of pirate culture has formed in the Nord Kingdom, and farmers are not ashamed of being pirates.

However, no matter how strong the pirate is, it is only a "thief". The pirate king Nabal did not know where to find a new training and promotion system different from the Nord Kingdom: pirate, pirate, pirate, pirate, The pirate leader and pirate king, from level 1 to level 6, became the second level 6 arms system in addition to the level 6 "Nord" infantry in the Nord Kingdom. Although the actual combat strength is probably similar to that of level 5 soldiers in other kingdoms, and Promotion is more difficult, but this is still a breakthrough change.

Na Barr’s dream of establishing a pirate kingdom in the open sea is not purely unfounded and random thinking. If there is enough fortune, throughout his life, there may be the possibility of seeing the establishment of a pirate kingdom...Unfortunately, this world does not No fortune was given to him.

The tide of light and darkness, destruction and rebirth is coming soon. The mere Nabal, the mere dream of the pirate kingdom, is as ridiculous as foam in the sea before this tide.

Zhu Peng knew, but he didn't tell Nabal, but instead used it as a guide to persuade the opponent to fight for himself.

Today, a very important reader told me that the plot is too slow, so I changed it all day, and deleted some unnecessary plots. The update was a bit late. Forgive me.

The other 2 is my lucky number, so in this chapter I solemnly ask for subscriptions, rewards, monthly passes. Any suggestions or character design requirements you have can be written in the book review area, and I will read it.

It suddenly occurred to me that I could write for another fifty years and tell you the story of Zhu Peng for another fifty years. I feel so happy.
