Release that Witch

Andrea just got on the corner of the wall and saw the scene that shocked her.

I saw a row of militiamen dressed in warriors standing on the wall, holding a strange weapon in their hands, it was a musket in the ash mouth. As the evil beasts approached, the musket spurted out flames and smoke, and the continuous explosion rang in the ear.

This should be a weapon similar to a bow, but she couldn't see the other side's shot, probably because the smoke was too big. The evil beast that rushed to the front was like a thing in the middle of it, and it was planted one after another, and it fell to the ground one after another.

However, the soldiers did not observe the results of the war, nor did they fill the shackles, but continued to shoot at the enemy, which was a bit faster than their own bow and arrow.

"This is the terrible weapon you said?" Andrea felt her lips dry. "The rate of fire is really fast, but the hit rate seems..."

"Before these people were recruited into the first army, they were all miners, farmers and hunters," Ashes interrupted. "They used them for less than half a year."

A well-trained warrior takes five years to train, and the archer is longer. Even the shortest bow of the training day will take about half a year to allow the farmer to not sway in the panic. As for the actual battle? God knows what they can shoot, and most of the time they are just taking advantage of it.

Andrei ** can't help but swallow, she is no stranger to these trainings, and the family has trained outstanding knights, so naturally understand what it means to be practical in half a year or so. As long as the weapons and food can be fully supplied, Roland can piece together a huge army in a short period of time, and this army is not worried about a sudden collapse in the close combat, no intermittent attack, even the elite knight is difficult to get close.

This has nothing to do with the courage and will of the militia. It is the weapon that gives them a powerful force.

"Do you have any other knowledge of the musket?" Tilly pondered for a moment and asked Sylvie.

The latter nodded. "I have observed it many times. It is indeed a weapon similar to a bow. The arrow that is emitted is very short, there is no arrow and no tail feather. The difference is that the arrow does not depend on the string. The elasticity, but the impact of the black powder explosion, it can raise the arrow to a very high speed in an instant."

"Black powder?" asked the ashes. "What is that?"

“Probably an alchemy product,” she shook her head. “I don’t know the exact ingredients.”

"It should be very expensive," Andrea. "The things that the alchemists created are never cheap."

Gray screaming, "Is it...but watching their shooting attitude is not like how expensive items are used."

"Wait, there is something coming," said Hillvi, who was looking at the battlefield. "Oh my God, is this a beast? It’s a wall with a wall! It looks like a huge turtle, back. There is also a huge carapace on it."

Andrea suddenly came to the spirit, "Carapace? These muskets have limited effect. Just let me get close to the ten-step range, even the wall can't stop my magic arrow. Ash, you cover me."

"Call, okay," Ashes had no choice but to take off the big sword behind him. "First, let's not lose the face of Tilly."

"Don't go," Sylvia stopped. "They still have."

Andrea did not hear the other half of the other party, she only heard a deafening roar, like the thunder in the ear. Looking back, the metal tubes erected on the wall invariably ignited a flame. This time, she vaguely captured the trajectory of the arrow flying. They looked like a shadow, and the lightning was too late. The monster is flying away.

After the interest rate, the monsters swelled a few tall snow pillars, and the flying snow fluttered behind. The ugly giant evil beast still proceeded at a fixed speed. Obviously this attack failed to hit the other side.

But even so, it is enough to make Andrea amazed... This distance has far exceeded the longbow and the heavy bow. "This is..."

"His Highness called it a field gun. In a nutshell, it was a magnified musket." Sylvia loosened his ears. "The power is much bigger than the musket, and the range is far greater. He is Using this, the militia fleet of Tefko was easily defeated at the Chishui River fork."

The luck of the evil beast could not continue. The second round of shelling had two accurate hits on its carapace. Andrea saw it very clearly. The uneven carapace raised a thin layer in the dull percussion. In the fog, the side close to the head was directly blasted out of two large holes, and black blood and internal organs were ejected from the hole, and splashes were everywhere.

The battle ended without a long time, and the body of the evil beast fell in front of the wall. The blood of the rogue caused the white mist to float above the snow. The soldiers began to work after the retreat, and she never found the opportunity to shoot. .

"It seems that I expected to be wrong," Tilly said helplessly. "He doesn't need the help of a fighting witch."

"The last time I went to the town, this kind of weapon was not popular. Only the chief knight could have it. Now he has created so many..." Gray sighed. "Maybe this is the courage of His Royal Highness." Under the pressure of the church, insist on the reasons for the existence of the witch."

Andrea did not answer. If she was in peacetime, she would have ridiculed the ashes, but now she only feels very depressed and has no strength in quarreling.

Back at the castle, His Royal Highness still prepared a sumptuous lunch for the witches.

Seeing the colorful dishes on the table, Andrea felt more blocked.

The upper aristocrats of the Morning Dawn Kingdom pay attention to the beauty of nature in their diet. They are willing to spend a lot of gold dragons and energy to buy some rare treasured ingredients and cook them in the most original way. Foods such as the Grey Fortress, which are full of spices and sauces, are extremely vulgar in their eyes. They are just to cover up the defects of the food itself. The more you put it, the worse the taste.

But every dish on the table is delicious and terrible.

Like a char-grilled mushroom, where is the plump and juicy mushroom from where is your temple? A bite bite, the overflowing juice almost fills the mouth.

There is also this green soup, which looks very ordinary and clear soup. It has a strong fragrance in the mouth, as if it is made from whole chicken, ribs and kelp.

Most especially the dessert ice cream bread. The milky scented ice cream is sandwiched between two pieces of bread. After taking a bite, the feeling of ice and softness makes her indulge in it. Although it is "winter", it does not prevent her from eating another piece. .

Hell, even this is completely lost.

Looking at the ashes of her provocative smile, Andrea did not respond for the first time.
