Main text 1599 The Cold Winter in Gaul (I)

The seventeenth hour of the Typhoon War

Late at night, the sea water beat against the sides of the warships stopped on the sea, making a sound similar to the waves of Gulu Ban. The Falcon Army transport ships were like ghosts in the night, pushing the waves slowly forward because all the warships had left. The port lacks the most basic patrol measures, and there is no news about the arrival of a large number of transport ships.

There are no stars in the sky. In Hu Keqili's observation mirror, the light coming from the distant coastline is the best indicator for the transport fleet. Under the faint light, the calm sea surface looks like spreading softness. The whole large piece of satin has no flaws at all. The sea water reflects the swaying lights, making it look so transparent and deep.

"It's so beautiful!"

Hu Keqili's eyes flashed with emotion. The surface of the sea water was dyed with a layer of light red. As it swayed, it turned into shallow and faint water lines. Several Gangfei soldiers were squatting in a corner of the port. , sitting around a bonfire, the warriors staying in the port The ship is almost invisible. Compared with the huge inner bend with a length and width of a thousand meters, there are only a few small warships, which makes the entire port Kanelai give people an empty feeling. The transport fleet enters five hundred meters, and the dense and huge The transport ship is like a black cloud drifting from the sea,

"Now, take action!"

Hu Keqili put down the observation glass in his hand and waved his hand behind him. He had never commanded the navy, but he had a good grasp of fighter planes. The name of a famous general was by no means an exaggeration, but was tempered by life and death battles. As the order was given, a flash of fire flashed on the sea and went out.

Because the fire only lasted for a few seconds, and it was late at night without people, the defenders on the island did not notice that the island's defense was completely blank at this moment, and the main force of the fleet was not doing its best. Navy, never dreamed of it. The other party would be so bold. The fleet had only been away from the island for a few hours, and the other party dared to send so many transport ships to kill them directly. You know, for warships that are armed to the teeth, these transport ships full of soldiers are just a group of people on the chopping block. Meat,

The courage of the opposing commander can no longer be described as bold. But arrogance! Extremely arrogant!

"Commando!" Following the muffled orders from the captains of each ship, the transport fleet on the sea stopped neatly, "Bah, bang, bang!" Each small boat about eight meters long was like a swarm of insects that had escaped from the mother body. The huge two sides of the transport ship were lowered to the sea with axles. Each small boat carried eight crossbowmen and two assault infantry wearing heavy armor. There were more than 200 small boats. Riding on the 2,000 assault soldiers above, they headed towards the port.

The person in charge of the commando team is Ronald, captain of the 5th Central Guards Squadron. He is standing on the bow of a small assault ship, his hair wet by the sea water and late-night fog, and the firelight of the port in the distance. Reflected in his pupils like fire burning, he is a veteran of the Falcon Army. Having participated in six battles, his feeling for war is as casual as breathing air. He fastened the buttons of his mail armor and held a steady crossbow in one hand. The assault fleet was less than a hundred meters away from the port.

All the soldiers were paddling fiercely with the prepared wood pulp. The small boats were like strong fish breaking through the waves, rushing straight towards the target point. The black armor of the Falcon Army was like a weapon specially designed for darkness. born. Without sufficient light, it was difficult to spot the soldiers on the boat. A huge gate appeared in front.

Following the current at the other end of the gate, the boat rushed fifty meters into the port. The outline of the assault fleet was already illuminated by the fire on the shore.

"The crossbowmen are ready to clear the target!" Ronald shouted. The crossbow in his hand began to be raised. Although the opponent's defense seemed to be close to a vacuum, the Ganfei people still had a garrison stationed on the Adonis Island, still numbering 5,000 people.

As the fleet left the port, the garrison soldiers who rarely appeared at the port also hid in the buildings in the port in twos and threes. At this time, a Congolese soldier who came out to relieve himself had just been in the darkness in the corner and overheard something coming from the sea. There was a crashing sound coming from the direction, and he turned his head curiously.

He was immediately stunned by the sight in front of him. In the black curtain covering the sea, he saw countless small boats full of soldiers, pressing down like a huge fan. The murderous eyes of the soldiers above and the cold light of their weapons made them look like they were in the middle of the night. There's a bone-chilling smell in it

"Ah, there are enemies..."

The soldier's screams, full of panic and shrillness, stopped in the quiet night. A crossbow arrow pierced his weak throat from fifty meters away, making his voice sound like a drum with a broken cover, only hoarse. hiss

"Kill him!\

,"Almost at the same moment, countless crossbow arrows shot from the sea hit him like a shower,

More than 200 powerful short crossbows with armor-piercing arrows hit the same target. Ronald, who had experienced many battles at that scene, was also frightened. The blood of the soldiers hit by the arrows was like torn rags, raindrops Like exploding from his body that was pierced by crossbow arrows

The Gangfei soldier, who was full of arrows, was shot back again and again in the blows. Finally, he leaned against the wall and paused for a full minute before sliding to the ground like noodles. The continuous blows made the Gangfei soldier The outline of his body has disappeared. Anywhere on his body that can be penetrated has been stabbed by more than three arrow clusters. Now it is completely a bloody mass of flesh filled with sword clusters. The walls are spattered from his body. A large amount of blood, as clear as a blood-colored humanoid stamped on

"Dang! Dang!"

The alarm bell from the port rang powerfully in the dark night, and the peaceful night was suddenly broken.

"Attention, there are enemies in the port!" The barracks on the island were lit up one by one.

"Asshole, what on earth is going on?"

Port defense officer Emman Ray, with a pale face, hid in the window of a room near the port, with half of his head exposed, looking fearfully at the port gate that was being slowly opened by an unknown enemy, and the water blocked by the gate flowed in. Inward bend of harbor,

The shooters conducted a centralized roll call of the port defenders running around the port, and the 200 heavy infantrymen pulled the gate controlling the port entrance without any worries. According to the intelligence provided by the Southwest Navy, the entrance to Adonis Port, which is the core of the southwest sea area, There is a huge reef below, where the current is not smooth Under such circumstances, it is easy for large warships entering and exiting the port to run aground. The builders who originally built the port took advantage of this. If the gates used to regulate the water flow were not opened, large warships trying to forcefully enter the port would be in trouble if they ran aground. Finally, block the enemy's way into the port!

The sudden outbreak of the situation did not allow many port defenders to understand the situation at all. They ran out in a mess to see what was going on. As a result, they became a living target for the falcon shooters. The port guard officer Ayman Ray used his own The personal guards are the main body, temporarily assembled Who would have thought that a hundred-man team had just emerged and was shot by dense and precise arrows? If he hadn't run so fast, he would be one of the piles of corpses lying on the port. This can't be blamed on him for not being good at fighting. , it can only be said that his luck is too bad

He is the most unlucky person so far who has been killed by 1,500 senior crossbowmen at once in a battle with a scale of 5,000 people. Such a number of top senior crossbowmen, even in the Falcon Empire, which is known as a hundred thousand crossbowmen. Only the Central Army of the Empire can produce such a number of senior crossbowmen in a battle of 100,000 people. It may not be able to make the enemy feel demonic and terrifying, but at the same time concentrated in a battle of 1,000 people, as they The opponent can only cry

Senior crossbowmen are the soul of the Falcon Army. The worst among them is a super shooter who can easily penetrate the throat of a target at a distance of 100 meters. If he is an excellent one, he can even kill a heavy infantry armor at a distance of 100 meters. gap, break The opponent's armor defense can kill targets with heavy armor defense with one blow. In ordinary Falcon Empire troops, the identity of a senior crossbowman is often equivalent to a squadron leader. If a senior crossbowman retires, he will be treated as a general middle- and lower-level officer. Qualifications are reviewed.

Because there were few targets, the hungry senior crossbowmen would not let go of any target that appeared in their sights. Some even secretly started a shooting competition. For the same target that appeared, some people quickly shot it. Head, but can Someone else could have pierced the target's throat at the same time, but there was already a swinging white tail feather firmly stuck on the chest, showing who was the winner in a arrogant manner. The fierce bursts of 1,500 senior crossbowmen completely failed the suppressed defenders. Dare to show your head

With a "boom" sound, the water flow collided, and the floodgates were completely opened.

"The fleet advances!" Hu Keqili's solemn face finally showed a smile of relief. If the navy opened the way to Adonis, he really opened the door to the island, with rows of transport ships. The group began to turn inward. In order to pick up Adonis in one fell swoop, His Majesty Falcon mobilized two-thirds of the navy's large transport ships, carrying a full load of 21,000 soldiers. Such a huge transport fleet, once It is simply unimaginable to be attacked by the local navy.

Although the naval fleet on the island has been led away, no one can guarantee that the other party will not kill a single enemy!

Therefore, since leaving the port, the fleet from Hu Keqili down has been very alert and does not dare to take it lightly.

The escorting squadron also showed a desperate attitude,

As soon as there is any sign of trouble, a devastating strike will be carried out at all costs.

In this landing, both the main naval force and the maritime transportation capacity were used to the limit.

Because of this, Hu Keqili knew very well that the arrow drawn by His Majesty Falcon had been shot, and he could only win and not look back!
