Iron Powder and Spellcasters

Chapter 112: break the city

   Chapter 112 Breaking the City

   "Your Excellency... just ahead." Forced to lead the way, Taniria's descendants stumbled ahead, clutching the wound on his head and trembling.

The people behind    made him terrified from the bottom of his heart. The Tanirian veteran had never seen such a fierce warrior - rushing into the crowd with musket fire, hacking an entire team of musketeers to death.

   The soldiers' legs were trembling uncontrollably, and fear made him involuntarily look back.

   Seeing these little actions, Winters, who was in a state of rage, smashed the **** of the gun on the back of the soldier's head.

   The descending soldiers were beaten to the point of being thrown into the muddy water, and they didn't dare to delay for a second to get up, choked and prayed and walked forward.

  The Veneta people, who have no scruples, directly blasted the mouth of the crater lake on the top of the mountain, and the water poured down the original small river bed into the Tacheng, as the first wave of the Veneta people's offensive.

   Hours of fierce fighting ensued, the Veneta soldiers broke through ditches, embankments, and the will of the Tanirians, and the defenses of the city within a city fell apart.

  The "siege" in this siege has fallen into complete chaos, and there are still Tanirian soldiers hiding in the house to resist, while the red-eyed Veneta soldiers kill anyone they see.

   Winters turned a blind eye to it all, and he and Major Moritz got separated in the melee—but that didn't matter, because he was all alone.

   "It's here, my lord." The descending soldiers tremblingly pointed to the residence of the old Earl of Chishang Island, not even daring to turn back. Immediately afterwards, he heard the sound of a weapon being drawn. The soldiers subconsciously closed their eyes.

"roll!"

  Tanylia surrendered the soldiers as if they had been granted amnesty, and fled with a rolling and crawling.

   Winters slammed open the wooden tower door, roaring the name: "William Kidd!"

  The last few Federation guards in the tower rushed down the stairs and were stabbed by Winters. Every time he killed a man, he yelled, "William Kidd!"

The roar of    echoed in the tower like a life-threatening spell, and the last guard was frightened by the death-like Winters, and even threw his weapon and jumped out of the window to flee in a panic.

   At the very top of the tower, he found William Kidd.

  William Kidd sat in his chair, seemingly unsurprised that this moment had come.

Compared with the high-spirited captain when we first met, the William Kidd in front of him has been completely boiled down: his temples and cheeks are deeply sunken, his eyes are tired and haggard, and his shoulders have become as thin as leaves, which were originally broad. Only bones are left of his wrist.

   But even if there was only one layer of skin left, Winters recognized the face, and he was sure it was William Kidd.

   "Heh, Veneta, you won...for now." William Kidd on the chair looked unusually calm: "Kill me and go for the reward."

   But the next moment, he was picked up from the chair by Winters and shoved to the ground.

   Kidd groaned in pain, and the furious Winters stepped on William Kidd's chest and asked, "Do you think I care about that shit?"

After   , he punched William Kidd hard in the face.

  William Kidd was beaten with blood all over his mouth, his nose was broken, and red fluid flowed out of his nostrils unstoppably.

   "I only ask you one thing." Winters breathed heavily, spat out a mouthful of blood, and pressed the tip of his knife against William Kidd's neck and asked: "Where is your wizard?"

   "Hahahaha..." Hearing Winters' words, William Kidd let out a creepy laugh, as if he had heard the funniest joke.

   He laughed so violently that he even choked on the blood in his mouth.

   He blushed and coughed, his facial features showing a morbid ruddy: "You...don't know anything...right...hahahahaha..."

   Winters didn't talk nonsense with him either, and chopped off William Kidd's right index finger with a knife: "Where is your wizard?"

"Ah!!!!!!!!" Ten fingers connected to the heart, the pain that pierced the bone came from his hand, William Kidd screamed and wanted to cover the wound, but his arm was trampled by Winters. It was so painful that he rolled on the spot.

   "Where is your wizard?"

   This time, William Kidd's **** was separated from his right hand.

  William Kidd curled up because of the violent convulsions, and he couldn't even make a full scream, only a low-pitched sound came out of his throat.

   "Where is your wizard?"

  William Kidd has lost another finger, and his consciousness has begun to blur.

   "Where's your wizard?" Winters asked repeatedly: "Where's your wizard?"

  …

   "Where is your wizard?"

   Major Moritz, who led the other surviving spellcasters to the tower, was stunned by what he saw.

   "Winters! What are you doing?!" Moritz strode over and dragged Winters away from William Kidd, who was already unconscious: "You calm me down!"

   "Let me go!" Winters struggled and roared like a mad brown bear: "William Kidd knows who that magician is! He knows! He knows it! Let me go! XXX let me go!"

"Lello! Joshua! Take William Kidd away!" Moritz and Pisani couldn't hold Winters together, and immediately ordered others to take William Kidd away: "Hurry up and get rid of William Kidd! He got it to stop the bleeding, and Major General Serbia ordered him to live!"

  William Kidd was quickly carried down the tower, and the Major and Pizarro held Winters tightly to prevent him from going after him.

   "I'm more saddened than you are that Field died!" Moritz pressed his forehead against Winters' forehead: "But wars always kill people! Got it? Field doesn't need you to avenge him! Got it?"

  I don't know how long it took, and Winters returned to normal from his rage. He suddenly felt very tired, his strength seemed to be drained all at once, and the saber in his hand fell to the ground.

  Moritz finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Winters was no longer out of control.

   Looking at Winters' blood-stained armor and clothes, the major quickly ordered Lieutenant Pizarro and another second lieutenant to "escort" Winters to the army doctor to deal with his injuries.

Looking at the dark red blood stains on the floor of the tower, Lieutenant Kirk said to the major with lingering fears: "This little guy... is crazy and he is like two people! It's like... It's like a soul has been replaced in the skin. …”

  Moritz watched Winters' back from the tower and walked towards the camp, and sighed.

  …

Outside the officer's infirmary, Winters said to the two second lieutenants who "escorted" him: "You two seniors, don't follow me. Rest assured, I won't go to William Kidd."

  Pizarro looked at Winters for a while, and when he saw that Winters really seemed to be back to normal, he nodded lightly: "Well, come to me if you need help."

   Winters also nodded and walked into the infirmary.

   The military doctor Kane was almost frightened by Winters' appearance. Kane's assistant helped Winters take off his breastplate, which had two terrifying depressions on the front.

  Doctor Kane pointed to the two depressions and asked Winters, "How did it get like this?"

   "It was shot by a musket." Winters recalled the fierce battle before, and replied: "It may have been far away and not penetrated."

   "Take off your clothes and I'll check it out for you."

   "It's not pierced, and the breastplate is not close to the body, it's fine."

   "It's not as simple as you think. The fact that the musket didn't penetrate your breastplate doesn't mean you weren't injured." Kane insisted: "Take off your clothes and I'll check it for you."

   "Mr. Kane," said Winters wearily. "You'd better deal with my left arm first."

   "Your left arm?" Kane looked at Winters' left sleeve, which was full of mud and blood: "What's wrong?"

   "I was shot when I crossed the trench," Winters replied lightly.

   "Where's the arrow?!" Kane was surprised.

   "I pulled it out myself."

  Kane yelled angrily: "Mr. Montagne! Are you dying?!"

   "Am I not dead?" Winters said with a chuckle, "You can wash my wound and sew it up again."

   said, Winters started to take off his military uniform.

   "Don't move!" Kane yelled: "Don't move! I'll cut it for you with scissors! Don't move!"

   Dr. Kane went to get the scissors, and Winters suddenly felt as if his internal organs were surging, his throat was straight, and then a huge force came up from the depths of his chest.

   Winters supported Kane's assistant and retched involuntarily. The violent retching made him feel as if his internal organs were displaced, but he spit out nothing.

  Kane strode back to Winters and quickly cut Winters' uniform.

  The position corresponding to the two bullet marks on the breastplate was bruised like two purple flowers blooming on Winters' chest.

  …

"I still don't understand that Tacheng is a lonely city destined to fall." Antonio sat next to the dying William Kidd, his tone was like chatting with an old friend: "You know you will lose, why don't you Will you surrender?"

   "What about you?" William Kidd, who was lying on the bed unable to move, said with difficulty: "If... you were me... would you surrender?"

  Antonio was silent.

   "If I... Kaesong surrendered." William Kidd actually squeezed out a smile: "I'm afraid it's not to make you think... the islands have no one..."

   "Do you have anything else to say?" Antonio stood up.

  William Kidd retorted, not to be outdone: "Do you have... anything else to ask?"

   walked out of the room where William Kidd was being held, and Major Moritz was waiting outside for Antonio.

   "Have you found the Tanirian magician?" Antonio asked bluntly.

   "Sorry, Legion Commander, no." Major Moritz shook his head: "The source of the prisoners is too complicated to be effectively screened. General Layton said, otherwise, simply kill them all."

"This is the last resort. All right, leave this to me and Layton, you don't have to worry about it." Antonio and Moritz walked side by side to the command, and praised: "You and your caster team do this. Well done, and Layton and I will do the credit for you. What do you think of turning this caster squad into a permanent setup?"

"It's very difficult to achieve." Moritz shook his head: "General, all spell casters in the army are officers. How could an officer be willing to be used as a soldier? There is actually a conflict between the identities of spell casters and commanders. There is no need for strong personal combat power, and the role of the caster will be dragged down by the command function, maybe...the empire's method of using court mages is the correct idea..."

  …

  …

   Fifteen days after the Veneta army captured the tower city.

  The door of Anna's studio in Navarre Manor was suddenly pushed open, and Elizabeth rushed in.

   "What's the matter with you?" Anna slightly looked away from the canvas.

   Elizabeth Serbia hugged Anna and said out of breath, "I... my brother is back!"

With a    clatter, the drawing knife in Anna's hand fell to the ground.

   "What's the matter with me when he comes back?" Anna guiltily bent over and picked up the scraper, fiddling with the paint bottle unconsciously.

   Elizabeth couldn't help laughing: "Then why are you blushing?"

   "Nonsense! Where am I blushing?" Anna angrily threw away the drawing knife and covered her cheeks.

   "Okay then, I'm leaving!" With that said, Elizabeth got up and was about to leave.

   "Wait, don't go!" Anna grabbed the corner of Elizabeth's clothes.

   "What's the matter?" Elizabeth asked with a smirk.

   "Don't go, Ella." Anna asked blushing: "Mr. Montagne... Where are you now? Have you gone home?"

   "No, he went back to Hailan to report to the army headquarters first, and he will go home after finishing there."

  …

   Winters, who had left the Army Headquarters, said goodbye to the others and went straight home.

   Used to smelling the sulphurous, fishy and gunpowder smells of the siege battle, and suddenly returning to the noisy, busy sea blue, Winters only felt a huge sense of incompatibility, as if he was an outsider from another world. Everything in front of me is normal, and it seems very abnormal.

  A black carriage stopped in front of the house, and Winters saw Ella's smiling face in the window. Elizabeth waved at Winters, motioning him to get in the car.

   It wasn't until he opened the door that Winters realized that there was another person in the car—Anna was there.

   Before Winters could react, Elizabeth had jumped out of the carriage and pushed Winters into the carriage. After saying "I won't disturb you", he quickly ran into the house.

  Anna was also taken aback. When she came back to her senses, she and Mr. Montagne were the only people left in the carriage.

   Thinking of the brief reply, Anna calmed her mind - she still feels sad when she thinks of that letter. She took out the sword of honor that Winters gave her from the hidden compartment behind her. The reason she persuaded herself to come to see Winters was to "return the sword to that bad thing".

But when she held the sword in her hand and was about to say the most heartless and hurtful words, she was surprised to find that the bad thing in front of her was staring at her in a trance, her eyes were red, and transparent liquid slowly dripped from her eyes. Down.

  He...is he crying?

  Anna panicked all of a sudden. It took so many sleepless nights to figure out the words of revenge for this bad thing, which was instantly forgotten.

  Bewildered, she reached out to wipe his tears, and subconsciously hugged him into her arms.

   Winters just leaned on Anna's shoulder, sobbing softly. Anna didn't know what he was going through or why he was so sad, she just stroked Winters' hair gently, over and over.
