The Last Frontier of Fire and Sword

　　 In order not to attract the attention of the Cossacks, Aragorn and Cheorchen did not walk through the gate, but hung themselves out of the city with a rope.

　　After getting out of the city, everyone lined up and walked carefully and cautiously. Aragorn was the first one.

　　 The left and right are quiet, the farther away from the city wall, the more careful the team walks. But even so, Cheerchen could still hear the footsteps of himself and others.

　　 Suddenly, Aragorn, who was leading, stopped. He made a stop gesture to the person behind, and then half of the cat got down.

　　 There was a sound in front of him. Everyone didn't dare to take a breath, for fear that it was the enemy's dark post in front of him, and he made a slight noise to attract attention.

　　 Aragorn motioned everyone to continue standing by. He gently put down the two gunpowder bags hanging on his body, then lay down on the snow and "swim" like a snake in the direction of the sound.

　　 He swims very slowly, but there is no sound. Not long after, there was another noise in that direction, which was the sound of fingers tapping the tree trunk. It's also a signal for the mercenary group to contact. It seems that Aragorn has solved the secret whistle.

　　 Cheerchen and others rushed to Aragorn, and there was a corpse lying at Aragorn’s feet. This person was wearing a white robe and a white hat, and the blood from his neck stained a small piece of snow. If it hadn't accidentally made a noise, I'm afraid it would be the death squad instead of him.

　　 The team continued on. After walking for more than ten minutes, he finally reached the vicinity of the tunnel entrance. The tunnel entrance faces the direction of the city wall, and a huge piece of raw hide is obliquely covered to block the fire inside. This made it impossible for the defenders to find the location of the tunnel through the light even in the dark.

　　 "What they are hiding is really hidden." Looking at the entrance of the cave, Mikhail Yelinsky murmured softly.

　　 At this time, footsteps sounded all around. Immediately afterwards, shouts broke out.

　　 "Who? Who is there?"

　　 "It's my own person."

　　 "Password!"

　　 "Zaporizhia. Reply!"

　　 "Kiev."

　　 It turned out that the two teams of Cossacks were changing the guard.

　　Although he was lucky enough to get the password, Aragorn did not immediately make everyone act. He signaled everyone to continue hiding. After another half an hour, the second group of people who changed the guard arrived, and the password was still "Zaporizhia and Kiev".

　　 recorded the time when the enemy changed their shifts, and Aragorn signaled everyone to start moving. Everyone lined up again and walked towards the tunnel entrance.

　　 "Who!" The guard Cossack heard the noise and asked.

　　 "It's my own, we just left something." Aragorn replied.

　　 "Password."

　　 "Zaporizhia."

　　 Seeing that he can answer the export order, the other party no longer doubts. Everyone swaggered to the guard post.

　　 "You guys, it's not..."

　　 At such a close distance, through the moonlight, the sentry finally discovered that these were not his own. But it was too late. Before they could fire, the death fighters pulled the trigger earlier.

　　 Three Cossacks fell to the ground with a shot. The other two were also chopped to the ground by Korsa Christovsky and Rados Zaff, who had drawn short swords and short axes.

　　 "Quick, quick. We only have ten minutes." Aragorn shouted.

　　 At the speed of the Cossack changing of the guard, the Cossack’s camp should be ten minutes away from the tunnel entrance.

　　Grenadier **** rushed to the tunnel entrance, holding a grenade in one hand, and the string on the grenade was sparking. He threw two grenade into the tunnel one after another.

　　 After two loud noises, a puff of black smoke rose from the tunnel entrance. Several figures rushed out of the black smoke, but before they could catch their breath, they were killed by the mercenaries guarding the tunnel.

　　 When the smoke cleared a little, Cheerchen, Korsa Christovsky and Rados Zaff rushed into the tunnel, and the others guarded at the tunnel entrance to prevent Cossack reinforcements that might come at any time.

　　 The tunnel is not big, it can only accommodate two people walking side by side. Cheerchen and the others lined up in an inverted figure, Cheerchen and Korsa Christovsky were in front, and Rados Zaff was behind. In this way, the firepower of four pistols can be used in the first row.

　　 In such a cramped environment, the pistol is almost perfect. The Cossacks digging inside didn't have any weapons but tools for digging, and they were easily knocked down.

　　 After the three of them eliminated the enemies in the tunnel, they untied all the gunpowder belts they were carrying and piled them together. Nine people carried fifty kilograms of gunpowder, enough to destroy the tunnel.

　　 Tetsuchen took out the flint and tinder, and he said to the other two people: "You go out first, I'll light the fire."

　　 Kosa Christovsky and Rados Zaff felt they ran towards the tunnel. Cheorchen slowly dragged the string for the ignition, and walked backwards towards the tunnel entrance.

　　 "Tetsuchen, are you almost ready?"

　　 At this time, Aragorn’s voice can already be heard.

　　 "Okay, I'll ignite it right away." Cheerchen replied.

　　 At the entrance of the cave, Aragorn and others have been surrounded by Cossacks. Gunshots were heard in all directions. Fortunately, it was at night, and the opponent couldn't see the target clearly and could only shoot randomly. The light emitted by the musket fired revealed their own position and became the best target of Mikhail Yelinsky and Lukash Pavov. Almost every time the bowstring is sounded, a result will be reaped.

　　 "Hurry up, their reinforcements are here." Aragorn urged.

　　 Tetsuchen lit the string, and he turned back and ran towards the tunnel entrance at the fastest speed.

　　 "Hurry up." Seeing Tetsuchen came out, Aragorn quickly organized everyone to retreat.

　　 **** threw three grenades at the fastest speed, opening a way for the retreat.

　　 Everyone rushed into the thick smoke. At the same time, there was an earth-shattering explosion from the tunnel entrance.

　　 A loud noise shook the night sky, and the earth trembled. Immediately afterwards, countless ice chips, stones, mud, and wood chips were thrown into the sky.

　　 After the loud noise, there was a series of new noises, and the whole tunnel was cut open like an operation.

　　 The various debris thrown into the sky by the explosion finally fell and hit Cheorchen and the others. The thick smoke that had originally enveloped them also began to dissipate.

　　 At this time, the team is facing the most dangerous time. This danger does not come from outside, but from inside the team.

　　 Lukash Pavov and others originally joined the death squad for pardons and money. They did not have the brotherhood and iron discipline of members of the mercenary group. Before the task is completed, they can give up their lives in order to complete the task; but now that the task is completed, these people are all rushing towards the city gate at the fastest speed in order to enjoy the money and new life they are about to get with their lives. Even the usual blocking and alternate screens are ignored.

　　 In this way, Lukash Pavov, who was supposed to be behind with bows and arrows, ran ahead, while Aragorn, Chechen, **** and other mercenary groups fell behind.

Aragorn was injured in the explosion, his left leg was inserted by a sharp piece of wood that fell from the sky, and **** was almost exhausted because he carried the heaviest material and went through the battle~www.NovelMTL.com~ Physically, Chechen and Szczecin certainly wouldn't leave their companions behind. The two helped Aragorn and Jesus, the speed dropped.

　　 Behind them, the Cossacks chased closer and closer. Jesus' grenade basket was empty, and Cheerchen's pistol had no bullets.

"what!"

　　 **** screamed and lay down on the ground. A stray bullet hit the giant's back.

　　 "Hesus, Jesus." Cheerchen pulled the giant's hand hard, but the giant couldn't get up anymore.

　　 Helpless, Chechen and the three had no choice but to drop the body of Jesus. He and Szczecin supported Aragorn and continued to escape to Smolensk.

　　 The gate of the west gate was already in sight, and the Lukash Pavovs who ran in the front even ran up the suspension bridge.

　　 Cossack’s cavalry also crossed the horizon at this time. There was a burst of muskets from the city, trying to deter the Cossack cavalry. However, this group of cavalry obviously has combat experience, knowing that the range of the musket can't threaten them, so they still chased the three with horses.

　　 "Hurry up." Aragorn clearly understood that if the three of them still had to escape together, none of them would be able to leave. He pushed Chechen and Szczecin away, pulling his hands, and sat down on the snow.

　　 "Go all together." Why would Cheerchen give up his comrade-in-arms.

　　 "Go fast, or you won't be able to go." Aragorn pushed the two away again, and then crawled in the direction of the enemy cavalry.

　　 "Tell the commander that Aragorn died like a soldier."

　　 Upstairs, Captain Franco also saw this scene. This iron-blooded old leader couldn't help tears in his eyes.

　　 "Let's go."

　　 Szczecin has been with Aragorn longer, and he knows the disposition of the officer better. He pulled Chechen up and fled to the city gate.
