Rise of the Empire Total War

Chapter 154 Night Battle at the Port

Night, outer city of Ravana, port area.

"Get ready for action!"

Aldermag, who was wandering around the port area pretending to be a sailor during the day, put on his light chain mail at this moment, picked up his sharp long sword, and walked out of the cabin with the soldiers who obeyed his orders. The area is very quiet, only a few sporadic sparks exude a faint light.

And the goddess of the moon seems to be worried that the mortals on the ground will look up and see the bottom of her skirt, shyly hiding in the layers of dark clouds, only a glimmer of light can be cast on the ground through the cover of the clouds.

"Our actions can only succeed and not fail. Whether or not we can win the city of Ravana depends entirely on us!" They were very nervous, and only four merchant ships carried more than two hundred Nordic swordsmen who entered the city of Ravana. If they failed, their lone army would have to be annihilated.

"Now, for the Empire, act!"

Aldmag shouted in a firm tone, and then took the lead to rush down the merchant ship, and then quickly rushed to the guard room in the port area under the cover of night. He had inquired about the situation here during the day, and at night, the port area The defenders will gather in the guard room set up under the city wall, and send out patrols to patrol the entire port from time to time.

However, I am afraid that the guard room will never have the opportunity to send out patrols tonight.

The Nordic swordsmen of the other three merchant ships also rushed into the port under the leadership of their respective commanders, and ran in other directions to clear their respective targets.

The closer you are to the guard room, the clearer the sounds from inside will reach Aldermag's ears. There are not only the laughter among the soldiers, but also the noise of gambling, and then the sound from the guard room He could clearly see the light, a group of soldiers gathered inside, many of them without armor, gathered around the wooden table, and made a noise from time to time.

It seems that this is a gamble.

Oldmag sneered, took out a hatchet from his waist, and aimed at the two soldiers standing outside the guard chatting. Beside him, another soldier made the same movement, only two breaths Suddenly, the deadly throwing ax was thrown, spinning in mid-air, and directly hit the throats of two guards. They didn't even have time to yell, and they fell down with their eyes wide open. The sound of their falling was heard by the noise from the room. Covered from time to time without attracting the attention of others.

"Attack! Kill everyone on the spot!"

Aldmag shouted loudly, and regardless of deliberately lowering his voice, he took the lead in drawing out his long sword, erecting his shield and rushing into the room.

He raised his sharp long sword and slashed at the outermost enemy. The sharp long sword cut through the thin linen clothing on the soldier, and then made a big hole in his soft belly. The soldier fell to the ground with a scream. Blood and water mixed with internal organs flowed out from the wound, and he tried in vain to stuff the discharged intestines back, but he still couldn't.

The scream from the dead soldier woke up the other soldiers who were still immersed in gambling, and they stood up to find their own weapons, but the influx of Nordic swordsmen did not give them a chance to resist. , these unarmed soldiers can only end up being massacred one-sidedly.

A few minutes later, all the soldiers were killed, and the blood that flowed from them stained the entire floor of the guard room red, and even overflowed the door and flowed into the canal.

Wiping away the blood spattered on his face, Aldermag walked out of the guard room first, and several fire points lit up around the port area. These fire points were still shaking irregularly. This was an agreement they had made before the action. Signal - the other teams have completed their mission.

"Turn on the signal, rest for a while, and prepare to seize the sea gate later." Aldermag ordered, and then added: "Bram, you and eighteen people are guarding below, ready to respond at any time."

"Understood, Aldermag." The burly Bram promised, and then called the names of eighteen people, asking them to stay with him.

After resting for a while, Aldmag went out again. He took the remaining 30 soldiers into the staircase next to the guard room. This staircase can go straight to the top of the city wall. Since the guard room is located next to the staircase, So there is no redundant deployment of guards.

Aldermag and his team walked up the city wall along the stairs without any hindrance. Their goal was the control room set up on the sea wall. There was a mechanism to control the sea gate in that control room. As long as they seized the control room, they would It is possible to put the main force that is still floating on the Fabrici River into the city.

Because the sea wall is different from the city wall on land, it is not the main direction of the enemy's attack, so the defense here is weaker. Compared with other city walls, there are fewer guards here, and the number of patrols passing by is less. In just a few minutes, the team led by Oldmag cleared the small number of guards on the city wall and took control of several towers. It was smooth sailing all the way. It was not until outside the control room that they encountered the last Stubborn resistance.

This wave of resistance came from more than a dozen defenders guarding the control room. They were equipped with leather armor and held the most common round shields and spears. He also rang the warning bell. Hearing the piercing bell echoing over and over again over the quiet port area, not only Aldermag's expression changed drastically, but also that of the soldiers in other teams.

Not long after the warning bell rang, there were noisy sounds in the barracks set up near the city wall, including not only the sound of soldiers assembling in a hurry, but also the urging and scolding of officers. About five minutes later, the soldiers were finally fully armed The soldiers assembled on the school field of the military camp, and then, under the leadership of the officers, they left the camp with torches and marched towards the port area.

Standing on the city wall, Oldmag watched clearly the defenders leaving the barracks. The enemy holding torches came out of the camp like a fire dragon!

"Oops!"

Aldermag yelled in his heart that it was not good. Seeing the defenders in front of him blocking their progress, his eyes became more and more unfriendly. He took a deep breath, and put his whole body weight on the shield, shooting hard like a cannonball. Crashing into one of the enemies, how could the guards equipped with only a thin round shield block the impact of the big Nordic man? Before they had time to react, the Nordic swordsmen followed Aldermag one after another and hit the enemy's defense line with all their strength.

Pressing the enemy under him, Aldermag took out the short knife stuck in his waist for cutting meat, and regardless of the enemy's desperate struggle, he directly stabbed the enemy's neck with force, the sharp short knife easily cut through the weak Blood spurted out of his neck, and the soldier lost his movement after struggling for a while.

Then, Aldermag stood up, regardless of the enemies who were fighting with his comrades, and rushed into the control room alone. Before the soldiers who were desperately beating the warning bell could react, he raised his long sword and cut him off. The man screamed and stepped back a few steps. The remaining hand covered the severed hand and let out another heart-piercing cry. Aldermag ignored his pain, raised the long sword again, and cut His head was smashed, the big head soared into the air, hit the alarm bell, and made a muffled bang.

After killing the enemy, Aldermag exhaled the suffocation in his chest, climbed up to the top of the tower along the wooden ladder in the control room, then took out a gadget, and pulled the rope under its buttocks, only to hear a sharp whistling sound , A spark rose into the air, and then a colorful firework exploded in mid-air. This firework is so conspicuous in mid-air.
