"The Marquis de Sade is missing?" Later, Jiang Tian led the team in the temporary headquarters of the Orthodox Army and captured a large number of ministers and officials of the Southern Protectorate Government/Provisional Royal Court who were naked and tangled together like worms. ; but did not find the true master as the leader.
"It doesn't matter much. The city gates have been sealed. He can't go anywhere." Then Jiang Tian made a decisive decision: "Quickly seize and copy all the documents and letters in the headquarters and find out the personnel roster." and appointment records, which will be of great use next.”
As the city gates were opened one after another, the Free Army troops rushing into the city were killed and scattered throughout the city. The orthodox army, which was caught off guard, was retreating steadily; people kept running to the headquarters for help, and then encountered ambushes. Among them, the commando team never returned.
Therefore, after just waiting for more than an hour, the first company of the Free Army to cross the stone bridge across the city center appeared in the front yard of the Commercial Union; it also defeated the last bit of confidence of most of the orthodox troops in the city, and It is divided and surrounded.
However, the next battle became more and more intense. After the various chaotic armed forces in the outer city were defeated, the Free Army soldiers who entered the inner city of Montpellier encountered even stronger resistance from the remaining armed forces.
Because, compared with the miscellaneous armed groups/rabble filled with speculators in the outer city, these in the inner city are the most stubborn and determined backbone members of the royal party, or in other words, they are the backbone members of the old aristocracy who are burdened with blood debts and know that they are unlikely to be spared. .
Therefore, although they were separated and fought independently, it actually inspired the last bit, the determination and bloody courage of a trapped beast to fight. Therefore, with their mutual encouragement and encouragement, they constantly emerged from the hiding place buildings to sneak attack and attack the Free Army array.
Siluke
But they were soon knocked down from the walls and roofs by crossbows and fire blunderbuss, dropped to the ground, or stabbed and chopped down on the street by spears and swords. Therefore, the battle quickly turned into a battle and tug-of-war, street by street and lane by lane, driven by multiple fronts.
Later, these remnants of the Royal Party, who had become completely crazy and desperate, even went so crazy as to set buildings on fire one after another; trying to use thick smoke and fire to block the Free Army's pressing and advancing momentum. Then they launched waves of counterattacks amidst fireworks.
However, as the Free Army reorganized its team and tactics, and mobilized the heritage knights and grenadiers of the special attack company; and after they also joined in this brutal and short street battle, the remnants of the royal party showed their final persistence and resistance like a flashback, that is, Gradually collapsed and disintegrated.
Because, these heavily armored and well-protected heritage knights are like human-shaped violent demolition machines; they don’t follow the normal path at all, and they smash into and cut through walls in groups, breaking through the walls of buildings. Block and open more breakthroughs.
The grenadiers who cooperated with their advance made full use of the expulsion and clearing effects of explosives, making it almost impossible for the stubborn enemies of the royal party hiding in the building to escape. Therefore, the scope of the fighting in the city was quickly reduced to the neighborhoods near the main cathedral.
However, the battle that advanced here encountered obstacles again. Because this is also one of the most fanatical and radical armed forces among the Southern Royal Party/local factions; the base of the Protectorate Holy Army founded and recruited by the county/district bishop from Minerva.
Therefore, it not only has many clergy, but also is filled with a large number of fanatics and the people they have coerced and beguiled; and the church block where it is located has been built into a temporary fortress. After repeatedly shouting to persuade him to surrender, he was beaten to death and injured several soldiers.
The commander of the Free Corps in charge of commanding the attack, Navy Captain Gundom, also completely lost his last bit of patience and hope. Then the cannons mobilized from outside the city blasted out gaps with debris and flesh flying everywhere, opening the way forward for the attack.
However, an assault formation composed of a group of heavily armored heritage knights braved the rain of stones and debris thrown from the top of the cathedral, carrying a four-pounder cannon and blasting through the extremely heavy main entrance of the cathedral. After the heavy objects accumulated behind it, the mutation regenerated.
I could only hear roars and screams coming one after another from the cathedral that had been transformed into a fortress. Then, those heritage knights who swarmed in also screamed and cursed one after another, and were thrown away by some huge force one after another.
Before these inheritance knights could be helped up, the remaining door was crashed down from the inside out; a huge horned head poked out from the billowing dust. Immediately afterwards, the entire door frame, which was several meters high, was shattered by some huge force.
However, all the Free Army soldiers present who participated in the siege couldn't help but gasped in unison; because the staggered sharp corners on this head alone were one meter long. And when its body was completely exposed in the dust, it was even more amazing.
Just with its limbs lying on the ground, it was taller than the door frame; and when it completely straightened its legs and feet from the ground, its back was densely covered with bone plates and spines; it almost cracked, broke through the top of the door frame, and then smashed into pieces. The stained glass window on the cathedral door.
It resembled a giant crocodile's horny mouth, which was slightly opened to reveal its sharp teeth, and it was chewing several bloody broken limbs. This scene is like the evil dragon in the ancient mural of St. George slaying the dragon, coming to the world again; full of terrifying evil.
However, the well-informed veterans of the Free Army have already participated in hunting and killing aliens. Therefore, after only a short period of silence and suffocation, they bombarded and fired all the weapons in their hands without hesitation; in an instant, they drowned the monster like raindrops.
However, this seemingly crawling crocodile beast is surprisingly flexible despite its relatively thick and bulky body. I saw it shaking its head and tail, flying forward suddenly with dust flying on the ground, trembling and sound, and almost dodged most attacks.
The bone plates and armor plates that were hit on the long tail burst out, and debris flew everywhere; in just a few breaths, he broke into the innermost defense line and encirclement. Like a large piece of cannonball exploding out of thin air, it swung its head and tail, rolled, slapped, smashed and blew away many fortifications.
Those soldiers who had no time to dodge were crushed, trampled, biting and scratched, causing a bloody storm. Immediately afterwards, the recovered heritage knights couldn't help but roared and rushed forward, waving swords, axes, clubs and hammers to hit them.
However, amidst the splashing of bone fragments and fragments struck by various weapons, these heritage knights who struggled to climb onto their bodies were thrown away by this scurrying evil beast, as easily as rags. Shaken, whipped and slapped away; rolled to the ground again.
Others happened to be stepped on and grabbed their bodies, and immediately screamed amid the sound of fractures; or their plate armor was dented by the horns of their heads and tails, and they vomited blood and could no longer stand up; but their fight, It also provided a buffer for ordinary soldiers.
Most of the people retreated for a certain distance, and under the cover of the block buildings, they regrouped and built a new front; with the sound of cannons being hastily set up again, one after another resounded; a large fan-shaped discharge of dense shotguns , and hammer bullets followed.
This time, under the restraint and harassment of the only remaining inheritance knight, the evil beast could no longer escape; in an instant, countless bullets composed of iron slag and lead struck at its bone plate covered with cracks. On the body; he was beaten so hard that he stopped moving.
Subsequently, another team of heritage knights who hurriedly loaded up their accessories fired hand cannons and threw explosives and incendiary cans without hesitation. Although they were quickly turned away by the crocodile-shaped beast, they dodged it. He hit the eyes and other vital parts, but he couldn't withstand the bullet in the slightly opened mouth.
He couldn't help but open his mouth and roar, but the moment he closed his eyes, more incendiary cans were smashed into his face. In an instant, it turned into a rolling flame that ignited and sputtered. Even though it was protected by a thick layer of cuticle, the hotness seeping into the gaps still made it go crazy.
It rushed forward almost without hesitation, crashing almost half of the small building with a crash; it also extinguished some flames under the pressure of the piles of dusty bricks and tiles. Then he raised his smoking head and viciously bit the evacuating soldiers around him.
However, a thick-backed sword suddenly slashed into its mouth; while it instinctively bit it off, a stream of black blood spattered out; this giant evil beast was finally injured. But the remaining inheritance knights also caught up and surrounded the ruins again.
There was also a tall knight, carrying a cannon filled with double ammunition, and bombarded its head almost from close range; it also shattered a large piece of the thick scaly cuticle, exposing The inner skin was riddled with holes, and the facial muscles were covered in blood.
Just as many inheritance knights came in turn, one after another, amid the violent noise of buildings collapsing one after another, they chased and intercepted this evil beast that rushed from left to right. In the main cathedral, which had been ignored for the time being, there was once again a noise like howling like ghosts and wolves;
The next moment, a large group of people holding weapons and wearing black robes suddenly rushed out of the huge gap that was knocked out of the church's main entrance. However, under the hood that was accidentally blown open by the wind, what was revealed was an impressively twisted figure. Facial features, deformed limbs, and a strangely constructed appearance.
However, the Free Army soldiers who had regrouped on the periphery continued to fire cannons and arrows, and fell to the ground with blood splattering all over the place. However, the others seemed to be unaware and rushed in regardless. Those soldiers formed an array and fought with their hands and feet.
Then, those people who had been shot or missed by arrows stood up again staggeringly; dragging the blood that was spilled all the way, or slowly crawling and moving, the broken and adherent skin Hands and feet; continue to approach the Free Army line in the melee.
