Chapter 411 Ambush and Princess Sharut(1/2)
Jiedu pointed to the secret passage pushed away by Bibin and joked:
"It looks like it's going to close."
Gus: "..."
"No, how do you know there is a secret passage here? Most people probably won't check the cemetery, right?"
Gus still couldn't figure out why Cascajido and the others seemed to know that there was a secret passage here.
You know, the Eagle Regiment was besieged and killed the day after he left, and he had been on the run in Mitlan for two and a half years. He shouldn't have had time to find the secret passage, right?
If he knew about the secret passage before, it is impossible for him not to know about it.
It's very strange.
Facing Gus's doubts, Jiedu just smiled mysteriously: "You will know when you see our spies in Yunden City later."
Jiedu intends to buy Guanzi.
But Casca, who was walking in front, turned back slightly and said bluntly: "Princess Sharut told us the news about the secret passage. If it hadn't been for her, we wouldn't even know where Grievous was being held. She didn't
You must lie to us."
"The princess has been notified in advance that we will take action today, and she will be waiting for us at the exit of the secret passage."
An ignorant girl defies her father's orders for what she thinks is love and wants to save the hero and lover in her heart.
It fits Sharlute’s silly and sweet persona very well.
Gus also nodded. If it was Sharut, it wouldn't be surprising.
Just walking and walking.
Jiedu's nose twitched and he frowned.
It smells like gunpowder.
They came to save Grievous, not to attract attention. The recently popular Fusiliers and Eagles didn't have a single shot. The gunpowder they grabbed was intended to be used to blow up the bridge when they escaped. They were not involved at all.
On the body.
Then there is only one situation!
Kata.
The sound was very small, but it was still caught by Jiedu's ears!
"There's an ambush! Get down! Bibin puts out the fire!"
Jiedu jumped directly and threw Casca, who was leading the way, to the ground.
Gus immediately squatted down.
Bibin put the fire directly on his belly and threw himself down.
The next second.
Bang bang bang bang bang bang!!
Gunfire rang out in the secret passage, and a burst of fire briefly illuminated the secret passage.
With the help of this brief firelight, Jiedu could barely see the number of people on the other side.
Six soldiers armed with flintlocks and wearing Midland-style armor...
Behind them there were a few people holding guns, and the other dozen or so were soldiers holding shields and spears.
Did Sharlut betray them and set up an ambush here, or was their connection with Sharlut known to the king?
No matter which situation it is, it’s not good!
Back off?
No!
They only have this chance. If Grievous cannot be rescued and the secret passage and Sharlut are exposed, there will be no chance of rescue!
There is no time to think, anyway, we have to deal with the person in front of us first!
Jiedu took out six throwing knives from his waist bag.
He noted down the location of the shooter in the firelight. There were also flintlock shooters behind him. They wanted to take turns.
The rotation position will not change much.
When the sound of footsteps ended, the sound of loading a gun sounded again.
However, this time there was no guidance from the fire, and the loaded gun was not fired.
But Jiedu can take the initiative.
He slowly squatted down.
He knocked the flying knife lightly.
Gus immediately understood that this was what Jiedu was telling him to wait for the signal.
Jiedu holds three throwing knives in each hand.
He doesn't care about the people behind him. Now he only needs to deal with the gunman to create space for Gus to rush through.
And you must act immediately, without letting the eyes on the other side adjust to the darkness.
So, let’s get started!
Jiedu threw it hard with both hands and shouted when he heard the sound of the sharp weapon piercing the flesh.
"There are at most two left! I leave it to you!"
There was a helmet on the head and armor on the chest, so Jidu aimed at the throat. From the sound, he could tell that at least four were dead, and Guts would do the rest!
Whoosh——
There was a slight strong wind around me.
In the darkness, Gus put his left hand on the hilt of his great sword and had already rushed over.
Within a moment, he arrived in front of the soldiers blocking the road ahead.
The only remaining fusilier had already aimed his wound at the incoming Gus.
However, Gus directly drew his sword with his left hand and blocked it in front of him.
There was a bang.
The projectile hit Guts's sword, causing sparks to fly towards the wall behind Gus.
"Tsk."
Gus feels that something called a flintlock has recently appeared.
Even if he was blocked, his left hand was already numb, but fortunately.
"Fortunately, this thing can't fire continuously, otherwise it would be the end of the mercenaries."
After saying that, Gus changed his sword to his right hand and cut the fusilier in half with one sword strike.
Then he put the big sword on his face, with a slightly mad look on his face, and shouted behind him:
"Bibin, throw a fire in front, I don't want to hit blindly and get impaled."
Jiedu was not the only one who saw the opposing camp in the firelight.
The relit torch was thrown forward by Bibin.
Gus, who saw where he was standing opposite, laughed wildly.
"Now is the time to charge!"
Then he rushed forward.
"Big sword! Black hair! Could it be that man!"
"One hundred people killed! It's the one hundred people killed!"
"We can't stop him! We can't stop him!"
…
…
A few minutes later.
"Hey! Can you be gentler?"
Among the pile of broken limbs, Gus grinned.
It's just that Casca's bandaging was too rough.
Moreover, the gun tip slipped when he was charging. If it didn't affect his movement, it wouldn't even be considered an injury to him. As a result, Casca insisted on bandaging him, and she was so rude.
Boom.
Casca hammered Gus on the chest, and the steel armor collided with the muscles, making a thumping sound.
