The thick and short gun line emitted bright sparks, which soon disappeared into the gun barrel. The gunner who fixed the gun position covered his ears and closed his mouth and quickly squatted down, and the smoothbore gun made a deafening shelling sound.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
Like an endless stream of fireworks, the smoothbore cannon on the port side of the ship spewed angry flames at the Watcher 200 meters away, and solid cannonballs half the size of a human head made thrilling arcs. On the sea surface, it landed near the Watcher. Only one of the thirty-three smoothbore cannons hit the Watcher's mast with the national flag hanging on it. The shell smashed the mast into two pieces, and Demacia's indigo flag swayed down. On the boat,
With no casualties, Iron Wing's ship cannons made all the Demacia bandits' hearts skip a beat.
They had never seen ship artillery that could shoot such a distance, and they didn't expect that after raising the Demacia flag, the warships of the Emerald Territory actually hit them directly, without any intention of talking or communicating.
"Could it be that Demacia and Noxus went to war without our knowledge?"
Cecil climbed up from the deck. The middle-aged captain's angry voice echoed on the deck, but no one could give an answer.
Regardless of whether Demacia and Noxus have already started a war, it is not a good thing for the Watcher now.
"Captain Cecil! They're turning!"
As he spoke, the Wings of Steel, which continued to advance in an "S"-shaped wave, had already pointed its starboard side at the Watcher, and the black smoothbore cannon muzzle was silently laughing at the Demacia bandits.
The helmsman of the Emerald Leader warship showed excellent sailing skills, which made Cecil understand that escaping by ship seemed to be a luxury.
"Get down! Get down!"
Cecil shrank and shouted.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
At a closer distance, row after row of shelling directly shredded the Watcher's hull, the keel screamed, and the ship began to sink in the burning fire. It was actually sunk directly by the smoothbore cannon.
He stood up from the deck where the water started to fill in embarrassment, stabbed the numb female lizard man next to him with a knife, and issued the last order he could at the top of his lungs.
"All crew members obey orders! Abandon ship immediately! Go ashore and assemble the team! We will fight to the death with these Noxian beasts!"
On the Wings of Steel, Lester watched with awe-inspiring eyes as the exquisite ship, made from Demacia's shipbuilding craftsmanship, sank to the bottom of the sea, before the man issued his second order.
"Order! Everyone, wearing armor and swords, land on the coast in battle formation.
Milton, you are responsible for commanding the team, eliminating all enemy resistance, and capturing prisoners as much as possible. Meimi, you are responsible for providing spell cover to prevent mages from being hidden among the enemies. "
"knew."
Master Meimi silently agreed. Knowing that now was the time to prove his strength, Milton took a deep breath.
"Understood! Each combat team! Attack the beach in batches and land in batches! The first team is the vanguard, follow me!"
Eight small boats slowly landed from the warship on the sea. The small boats carried eight soldiers. The eight soldiers had different divisions of labor and combat functions. There were sword and shield infantry responsible for charging into the formation and guarding the archers, and pikemen holding spears. , as well as archers holding strong bows and crossbows, each team sailed away from the ship in an orderly manner. In addition to shooting those who fell into the water along the way, they headed straight to the east coast of Kiriwei Island.
Lester didn't know how far the Emerald Territory's military command and combat experience had developed, but judging from the current situation, the tactics of forming troops were much better than the crude tactics that most people only knew about F2A.
Of course, this does not rule out the fact that Milton and others are elites. It is not difficult to achieve this level in small-scale operations. What is rare is whether there is a suitable combat command system for large-scale legion operations.
Now is the best time to observe. In this battle, he will not directly intervene. He will only be responsible for trial and execution.
"Shia, please."
The dragon girl nodded and began to change her form under the eyes of everyone. When the magic white light disappeared, the original tall beauty had become a giant dragon with a wingspan of ten meters. The semi-metallic deck of the Steel Wings was originally designed to facilitate Xi Designed for sub-shape changes, there will naturally be no problems.
Lester, who was wearing dragon armor [Lonely Falcon], skillfully climbed onto Shia's slender neck. The dragon began to flap its wings and rushed into the sky in the blink of an eye. The violent cyclone caused the crew members ten meters away to stagger.
A hundred meters above the ground, Lester squinted his eyes and observed the battle situation from a bird's eye view.
Many Demacian bandits with good water skills swam up the east coast of Wuwei Island. Within a few minutes, a defense line of a hundred people was organized. Dozens more people headed towards the island's woods. I'm afraid it was Prepare to make traps and prepare a retreat to avoid being annihilated by Milton and others because they cannot hold the coast.
From this point of view, the commander of the Demacia side does not seem to be a good person, especially after experiencing a huge defeat such as the shipwreck, the commander can still control the team to maintain high morale and actively prepare for such a battle. I am afraid that Will can only be seen in Demacia's army.
In order to cover the landing of the soldiers on the boat on the coast, the warships with reloaded smoothbore guns launched a round of artillery bombardment on the coast, causing the Demacians holding crossbows on the coast to shrink their heads, and their morale became a little low. Even so, The Demacians showed no intention of backing down.
"Fire the arrow! Fire the arrow!"
Cecil, who was soaked all over, raised his Demacia stainless steel sword high and gave orders to the crossbowmen.
More than a hundred powerful crossbows and dozens of archers fired arrows at the same time. The arrows rained down on the three small boats approaching the coast. The soldiers on the boats had no way to escape.
"Form a shield formation!
"
Four sword and shield infantrymen wearing heavy armor raised their iron-clad wooden shields in response to the order. The shield wall with only a small gap protected the remaining people in the shape of a 'factory'. The arrow fell into the shield. cannot cause any harm,
Cecil put down the telescope, feeling even heavier.
The first salvo that had been planned for a long time actually failed to achieve any success. Instead, the power of a dozen scattered arrows fired from the boat was even more shocking than expected. The crossbow arrows that tore through the air were as precise as long shots. It flew over a hundred meters like a blind eye, easily penetrated the fine chain armor made by Demacia, and killed more than a dozen Demacia warriors on the spot.
Lester smiled faintly. It was obvious that Cecil had not understood the concept of sniper crossbows. He could install a scope on each mechanical crossbow and distribute it to soldiers. I am afraid that only the Emerald Leader could do it at present.
After several more rounds of shooting, except for a few unlucky ones who were scratched by arrows that happened to pass through the shield wall, the soldiers of the Emerald Territory did not suffer any casualties. On the contrary, the losses on Demacia's side were increasing.
"What the hell! Who are they?"
"Lord Cecil! We haven't really engaged the enemy yet, let's withdraw! They are simply monsters! How can we defeat such monsters!"
At this moment, Walsh no longer had any hope for good things, and he also forgot how high-spirited he was when he slaughtered the two-legged lizards. At this moment, he couldn't understand why he encountered a group of terrifying enemies in such a remote place. He just wanted to Get out of this hellish place.
"Yes, Lord Cecil, I see that their military formation is rigorous and their style is strong. In addition, the armor on their bodies is made of dark red metal. It must be the legendary emerald that is no less than Demacia steel." Lead the magic steel,
From this point of view, this force is probably the elite force of the Emerald Territory. Lord Cecil, we will never be our opponents. I am afraid that only the fearless vanguard can come into contact with these monsters. Let’s evacuate here first to save our lives. It's important! "
Dunlop was also trying hard to persuade the middle-aged captain who had lost his ship.
Although he was unwilling to do so, Cecil, who had a gloomy expression, finally nodded and gave up the idea of taking advantage of the large number of people to have a collision.
Now it seems that doing so is no different from hitting an egg against a stone.
"Get food and water and head over there!"
After leaving behind dozens of corpses and wounded, Cecil and the remaining men evacuated the coast and fled deeper.
The battle ended easier than expected. Lester rode Shia and landed on the coast. He did not comment on this crushing battle from beginning to end. The man with a calm expression just asked Milton. .
"How long will it take you to dig out those rats that got into the jungle and bring them here to tie them up?"
"One day, Lord Lister, please give me one day."
Respectfully showing the highest Noxian etiquette to the man in front of him, Milton did not dare to ask how he was doing, so he just whispered.
"Sir, if there are still fish that slip through the net at this time tomorrow, I will commit suicide to apologize."
"I'll wait for you here in one day, Milton, let me see what you can do."
"yes!"
After issuing the military order, Milton saluted again and left with the soldiers. Leicester ordered the sword and shield heavy armor soldiers that Milton did not take with him to gather the wounded and prisoners on the coast together. A wooden fence was built in the temporary camp and all the wounded and prisoners were locked in.
When encountering some people who like to use Demacia to threaten others, or who like to make noise, the warriors of the Emerald Territory did not hesitate to donate their smelly socks and underwear, so that Demacia felt the warmth of the ancient road of Noxus. People are speechless.
Until this time, the sun had just risen to its highest point.
After observing for a long time, more than a dozen Misttails that turned into birds changed their forms and landed in front of Lester. The leader of the seagulls transformed into a human form, and the leader was Wuhua, the leader of the Misttail tribe.
He glanced indifferently at Wuhua, who had a complex expression. The sullen Lester was still sitting on the stool, with the falling clouds sticking straight to the ground. The man didn't say a word, but it made the Wuhuas start to feel uneasy. , I felt that I had done something wrong, and felt a little aggrieved. Fortunately, the giant dragon behind the man shook his head slightly,
Knowing that the man's sullen expression had nothing to do with them made the Kiritails feel a little better.
Even so, there were still a few people who were trembling nervously because they had rejected Luo Yi.
At this moment, the man wearing a ferocious armor caused the air pressure in the entire sky to drop. Even Wuhua felt like he couldn't stand and just wanted to kneel on the ground.
It was only then that Wuhua realized that this was the man's true face. The gentleness and kindness that she had taken for granted in the past was actually just because the man in front of her was partial to the Wuwei tribe and showed love and grace to the Wuwei tribe.
If he wanted to, the man in front of him could easily massacre the entire Kiriwei Island.
At this point, Wuhua found that she could no longer assume the arrogance of the clan leader, and finally knelt on the ground obediently, lowering her arrogant head to the man in front of her.
The other fogtails also followed suit, until they were kneeling on the ground, able to get rid of the oppressive low air pressure and breathe air smoothly.
"Lord Leicester, I was wrong, no matter how you punish me, please forgive the other Misttails."
As Wuhua begged for mercy, Lester finally laid his eyes on the leader of the Wuwei tribe again and said coldly.
"I have long said that I have not planned to do anything to the Misttail Clan from the beginning, and I have no plans against the Misttail Clan. You don't need to apologize to me, and you don't need to beg me. When I catch these people who are guilty of me, After destroying the intruders coming from the white mist, I will leave with Roy,
As compensation for my influence on Wuwei Island and the disaster I caused, these prisoners will be handed over to you. As for those Wuwei who died at the hands of the invaders, I can only say that that is your own problem. If you want to blame me, you should remember the first time Demacians invaded the island. You still couldn't protect yourself after the second invasion. You should reflect on why. "
Hearing Lester's words, the fogtails behind Wuhua suddenly became anxious. They knelt on the ground and scratched their heads, trying to say something, but they did not dare to speak out of fear.
"grown ups."
Wuhua lowered her head, but Lester had closed his eyes, looking like he didn't want to hear more.
"I have seen how dangerous the world outside Kiriwei Island is, and I also understand what kind of power the Lord has. Apart from Lord Lester, I can't find anyone more suitable to become Kiriwei than Lord Lester. The existence of the master of the island, please stay here and protect us as Vastayan people until we can become part of your power."
Hearing Wu Hua express her feelings, other Wu Tai also responded one after another, and Wind Dragon Xia who was behind Lester also spoke to comfort her.
"Come to Hit, since the Wuwei tribe has taken the initiative to seek asylum, we might as well agree to it. This will also make little Luoyi happy. After all, Wuwei Island is also the hometown of little Luoyi."
"Yes, Lord Lester, please give Kiriwei Island a way out."
Amidst everyone's pleading, Lester opened his eyes.
"Now that you are ready to wake up, just wait and wait here with me until Milton brings all the invaders back. Misty Flower, let me see your determination, Noxus, no Useless people are needed.”
