On the coast of the Norman province, there was the roar of shelling and musketry. Amidst the continuous sound of shooting and drumbeats, the aliens rushed out and fled on the beach. They were covered in blood or torn apart, and were knocked down in the mud and rocks.

These are creatures that walk upright on two legs, with limbs shaped like flippers of frogs, and with wet mucus and scales on their bodies like sea fish.

And in the surging tide in the distance, there were still several stranded corpses of giant creatures lying; but they were also in the same miserable state of death with their intestines pierced through the belly and rotten to the ground.

As the continuously scouring seawater leaked red-black bodily fluids, it polluted a large area of ​​the beach. At the same time, it also attracted swarms of seabirds, which hissed, bit and pecked on the beach.

This is what appeared on the coast after the change in the celestial sphere.

One of the disasters of "tidal disaster". Marine aliens that walk on two legs like frogs and fishes are also called tide monsters by local fishermen; as for giant creatures that are similar in size to whales but have large serrated teeth, a deformed carapace on their heads and strangely shaped horns, they are called tide monsters. Demons; therefore, these two alien species almost follow the tide.

Then, overnight, a coastal fishing village, or even estuary swamps and settlements along the upper reaches, can be turned into a hell on earth full of blood and minced meat.

The latter is a great threat to various fishing boats and small merchant ships that go to sea. It will actively overturn the boats and swallow those who fall into the water.

Therefore, when the First Army marched south along the coastal road, they almost received cries and pleas from local victims one after another.

They also spent more time and effort on and off to eliminate and eradicate these alien threats that lingered and wandered along the coastline.

In this process, gunpowder was packed in sealed iron shells and transformed into primitive mines with delayed explosions; artillery and hive guns mounted on fast carriages and flat barges were the best ways to deal with this kind of monster. means.

Utred also contributed an ancient recipe. It is a kind of ointment made from the internal organs of killed tide monsters and some other irritating ingredients; it is applied to the livestock used as bait. For most of the dormant tide monsters, it is simply an irresistible temptation.

It is easily lured from its shore nest. Then, block and block them by setting fire and throwing explosives, and finally drive them into the ambush position preset by the army.

When the mature individuals are almost eliminated, a team of special attack knights and hunters are sent to break into the nest and use explosives to destroy the remaining larvae.

Therefore, during the process of the First Army moving south, almost every day, with the cooperation of local self-defense groups and patrols, they continued to kill and clean up these alien creatures that came with the tide and took up residence on the coastline.

Coastal shipping and fishery production activities have gradually resumed. The last small group of tide monsters fled to the saltwater swamps and reeds on the edge of the tidal flat; the next moment, several burning cans were thrown head-on, exploding and burning among these alien creatures, stained with burning Hissing and screaming; more ambushed vigilante groups rushed out and quickly dealt with the damage.

Finally, calm was restored on the open beach; only the figures of groups of vigilantes who were cutting and decomposing on the beach, with strange corpses all over the ground, were left.

Among them, the corpse of the Lang Yao has been verified to be similar to that of giant whales, and can be used to extract inducers and nutritional creams that stimulate blood vessels.

Some of the flesh is even dried and ground into powder, which is then mixed with oil to make excellent fishing bait. The body of the tide monster, which looks like a frog and a fish, cannot be eaten directly; there is a risk of causing human body deformation.

But the outer scales and skin are good processing materials; they can be made into waterproof and warm leather goods; or the shell of a portable container; the internal organs can also be reused to make special hunting bait.

Therefore, when the First Corps cleared the coastline, most of them

After the source of the "tidal disaster" is discovered, the remaining sporadic fish that have slipped through the net can be handed over to mercenaries and corps with bounties.

In other words, when these unusual disasters come with the tide——

After "tidal disasters" have economic value that can be deeply explored, their inherent hazards and threats will naturally fade away and transform into a long-term sustainable fishery resource output category.

Therefore, even if the Kingdom advances and subsidizes some money for the preliminary work, it is completely worth it.

Then Jiang Tian, ​​who was thinking about it, saw the Danish witch Skade surrounded by a small group of British guards; he rolled his eyes again and spat out a string of words.

"Your Majesty." The leader Uhtred, who was standing by, immediately turned to him and explained: "Skeede has been channeling back and forth, and no more birds within ten kilometers of the surrounding area can be found. , tide monsters or other alien communities.”

"Yes, your woman is very good, really very good." Jiang Tian nodded in approval, then looked at Uhtred who changed his color slightly and said: "I mean her ability is very good. For any army, she is very good." Indispensable value, you are such a lucky man.”

"Your Majesty's praise really scares me." Utred, who had braided hair and carried a sword, secretly breathed a sigh of relief: "But you are right, Skade is the woman I swore to protect for the rest of my life; and for It is an honor for Skade and I to serve such a great king like you." After all, Skade, as a prophet/witch of the Danish tribe, was originally the exclusive advisor to the chief/barbarian king Sihad; in Sihad In the turmoil in the king's account after his death, he became the target of many large tribes who suffered heavy casualties and fought for each other, but in the end he was chosen according to the prophecy.

It is also an important guarantee for him to always seek advantages and avoid disadvantages. If this emerging king who values ​​himself very much wants to ask for Skade from him, then he can only choose to abandon most of his career and embark on the road of escape again with a few cronies and women. .

But fortunately, the thing he was worried about never happened. The lord only directly gave him a lot of monetary and material rewards based on the corresponding performance and role of the women around him.

In addition, his men were incorporated into the kingdom's newly formed Coastal Corps. The people who followed were also settled in the farming villages established along the way.

In this way, he could put aside the tedious affairs of managing most people and concentrate on leading a thousand soldiers selected from them to serve the kingdom directly for ten years under the designation of the British Regiment.

In this ten-year contract, Utred and his women can no longer worry about the pursuit and liquidation from the dynasty, let go of the complicated past; and start a new life in this strange and fertile land. Start a new life.

At least, in this land, compared to the harsh frost that occupies most of the year on the North Sea coast and the everlasting frozen coniferous forests; the harsh weather of rain, snow and hail in the northern highlands; the continuous rain and humidity in the British mainland , it can be called a warm and fertile paradise.

Just as he was secretly hoping and thinking about the future, he saw the enemy's alarm sounded again in the distance; then a cavalryman acting as a messenger rushed in front of him and shouted at the same time: "Cerbourg" , Cherbourg, which had surrendered, was besieged and urgently called for help."
