Release that Witch

279. Chapter 279 Battle Line

    Iron Axe walked into the hall and followed a standard military ceremony.

    “Timothy’s troops are expected to arrive at the Scarlet Water River in four days, so the First Army will be set off this afternoon,” Roland said bluntly. “The Border Town’s team will meet you at the meeting place. I will also catch up as soon as possible.” past.”

    “Small town is not armed?”

    “All the movements of the enemy are under the supervision of Lightning and Macy. It is no longer necessary to split the defense. Just hit one side and defeat it.”The prince is paused, “And Longsong Stronghold needs to leave a hundred people to guard those noble.”

    “Leave in…hereIron Axe is a little bit stunned.

    Roland briefly explained the previous commands issued by Five Major Families. “The reason I gathered them together is to keep them safe.” After learning that Timothy attacked the Western Region, he was not allowed to think about anything. The Second Army weapon was old and had little combat experience. When it was in a sudden situation, it might not be able to respond. But with the 10 teams of First Army soldiers, they can be sure. Look down on the wind and waves. I don’t want to be in the back of the Scarlet Water River. ”

    “Follow, Your Highness.”He should answer.

    “You want to go too?”After Iron Axe left, Nightingale emerged from the back of the main seat.

    “Of course,” Roland said. “If I don’t go, who else can use the power of the lotus?” I may not be able to command the battle, but the bunker seals the road and the tank pats the face. That is my unique skill. ”

    “Bunker, I understand, what is the tank?”Nightingale is confused.

    Hmmm……It was dragging the cannon’s carriage,” the prince coughed twice. “But we don’t have enough horses, so cannon needs to be transported by HMS Little Town, so it can’t be called a tank. ”

    “So you picked Honey?”She blinked. “As far as I know, she can tame the tiger and the leopard into a gentleman.” But can cannon pulled by a beast be called a tank? ”

    “Of course,” Roland couldn’t help but raise his mouth. “It can also be called Tiger and Leopard.”

    As he said, Carter took a White-tailed Kite and walked in come in, “His Royal Highness, there is news from Border Town’s.”

    Roland clap his hands and saw that White-tailed Kite spread his wings like a spiritual one, breaking free from Knight’s arms and gliding over a distance and then falling steadily on his shoulder. He took a piece of dried meat from his pocket and swallowed the bird. The latter also consciously lifted a paw, allowing him to easily untie the cloth tied to it.

    This eagle is not a Macy change, but one of the air messengers trained by Honey. They can remember five or six different appearances, as well as hundreds of flight routes, and by bringing them to a strange place, they can be connected to homing. This time Roland went to stronghold, bringing a total of four messengers, they can travel to and from the two places in one hour, and fly non-stop for a whole day. In the absence of a radio situation, this is the quickest way to contact.

    Roland spread out the stationery wrapped in the cloth and quickly browsed it.

    The sender is Wendy, who has carried Shanglian, Silvy, Leaf, Hummingbird and Nana to the Scarlet Water River. Some of the artillery team members and eight cannons were off-set with the ship – this is also the maximum number of cannons that the HMS Little Town deck can accommodate after lightweighting.

    The prince estimated in his heart that when Wendy pushed the sails at full speed, the cement boat would take a day to reach its destination. Even though Silvy is a navigator, the boat can travel at night, but Wendy’s magic power is far less than that of Anna, and it can’t be used without interruption. Therefore, if you rest at night and transport during the day, you can only go back and forth in four days, and transport up to 16 field guns to the river pass.

    Although the number is not as good as the last time, but considering the unexpected surprise attack and the other side can not quickly counterattack on the ship, the gunfire is barely enough. Roland took the pen paper from Nightingale and wrote a new order – commanding the garrison to carry the weapon, the ammunition immediately set off, and the Iron Axe’s large force to join the river branch.

    For one hour, White-tailed Kite will send the letter to Scroll and hand it over to Captain Brian.

……

    When Roland arrived at the scheduled location, it was The next day morning.

    The sparkling river is divided into two places, one to Longsong Stronghold and the other to Scarlet Water City.

    Because the latter is wider, people are accustomed to see it as the main river channel of Scarlet Water River, while the road to stronghold is called Small Scarlet Water.

    After disembarking, the long-awaited witches on the river greeted us.

    “Wendy?”Roland looked around and asked.

    “Tianyi Liang returned on HMS Little Town,” said Leaf. “She said there is still a batch of cannon to ship.”

    “I heard that you are dealing with Timothy Wimbledon, the pseudo-king who searches for the witch in the city every day?”Lotus can’t wait to ask, “What are you going to do?”

    Although the Iron Axe and First Army main forces have not arrived yet, the initial preparations can be made in advance – as long as there is a witch then it will be alright.

    “I need to build a line of defense on both sides of the main river.” He squatted down and used a stone to draw a sketch. “This line represents the enemy’s way forward. My troops are spread across the strait and suddenly attacked in a pinch.” In order to have an unexpected effect, they must first hide. So you have to raise two earthen houses that form a V-shaped angle on the shore. The house is long, the walls must be thick, and the interior is divided into eight compartments, leaving only a small window on the side facing the Scarlet Water River. ”

    “His Royal Highness, I don’t quite understand…”Lian said, “You can hide the soldiers in the earthen house, but they can’t attack the ships on the river.” If the pseudo-king’s fleet does not stop and does not land, what should we do if we drive all the way through? ”

    “No, they can’t get through,” Roland smiled. “You will know when you get there.”

    Then he looked at the Leaf. “You are responsible for covering up these fortifications, weeds and vines, and making them look more natural.”

    “Yes,” said Leaf.

    In this way, when the cannon is pushed into the disguised fortifications, the two earthen houses that seem useless in the lotus eye will instantly transform into a never-sinking “sail battleship.” As soon as the shutters on the window are lifted, each compartment can spewing a deadly flame, and the 16-door field cannon will not lose the aim because of the bumps, in fact, in such a close shot, almost close eyes can hit the sailing boat in the middle of the river-even if not sunk, it is enough to make their decks into the Asura field.

    And from the beginning, the enemy is in a state of unfavorable T, Roland smugly thought, you tell me, how to lose T-you riding face?
