Survival in Another World With My Master
Chapter 228: Artillery Operations
"Well, I'll tell the remnants of the Holy King's Army who are standing in Griselburg. This is an ultimatum. Disarm and surrender immediately. Otherwise, I will destroy the walls and overthrow you. There is no guarantee of life. If we surrender immediately, we will guarantee our lives and deliver them safely to the Holy King. I also promise that I will not be held guilty of any crime against the guards under the command of the Holy King's Army. I repeat, this is an ultimatum. Surrender immediately."
I use the magic loudspeaker installed on my airboard to reach out to the remnants of the Holy King's Army in a cage in Griselburg. Well, Danan and Ellen convinced me many times before I did, but they never surrendered. Even if I make an ultimatum like this, the result will be the same.
"But why are you so stubborn?
Ask Ellen, who was standing beside her while she waited for her opponent to react.
"The bishop in Griselburg is a man by the name of Erwich, who is said to be more harsh than harsh among the mainstream, especially against subpopulations. Perhaps that's the idea that we can't meet a subgroup of people."
That said, Ellen exhaled. If she knew that the current mainstream teachings were distorted, the bishop, Erwich, would look pathetic and helpless. All I knew was the wrong teaching, because he was being pushed into his present situation. I wonder if he behaves harshly towards subhumans, but he must have done so as long as he treated the old and correct teaching from the beginning.
"I see... well, there's nothing I can do to get here."
"... I see."
That's how Ellen gazes at the walls. You're going to burn everything that happens here into your memory through those red eyes.
"Well, unfortunately, I don't see any response, so let's get ready."
This time, I have prepared a front-loaded gun with a stand. You can think of it as a so-called modern "cannon." It is the one that loads gunpowder and shells from the mouth and fires cannon and iron shells with a torch.
A black cast iron cannon sits in the center of the wheeled stand, and a metal box with shells and gunpowder bags is installed on the left and right. I have prepared ten gates this time. Since there were only four people needed to operate the gate, I was able to extract forty people from the elite troops led by Da Nang.
First, I will select four of the forty, and I will lecture on how to use them. Of course, let others see how it goes.
"This is a weapon called cannon. You can just think of it as a broken castle hammer that fires an iron shell at an incredible speed and can be fired from a distance beyond the reach of an arrow. Precision shooting is impossible, but it's very effective if you're targeting stuck walls and gates."
That's how I slap a black-light cannon.
"With this, we can break down the walls and fill the gates with holes without getting hit back by our enemies. If there are holes in the walls and gates, it will be easier to take them down."
I'll teach you how to use the cannon while I'm under the gaze of the elite Liberation Army soldiers who feel interesting.
"Let's start with cleaning the cannon cavity. Failure to do so could lead to the jamming of the bullet without proper firing and the explosion of this iron barrel. You don't have to explain what happens when that happens? Never let this work go unnoticed. Unless you want to die."
The elite soldiers nodded seriously.
"Oops, I almost forgot. There are certain things you must do before cleaning. First, one of us holds the fire gate behind the cannon with his thumb. This is for safety. It is also to prevent dust and things from entering the cannon cavity, and to prevent accidental loading and firing. Never hold this fire gate with your fingers, even if you haven't loaded it yet, except when firing. If you fire too many shots, it'll get hot, so equip your gloves."
That said, I'll have one of the four hold the fire gate with my thumb.
"So, the first thing we do is clean. Use this spiral bar to shred burning scum and debris from the cannon cavity. Afterwards, wipe the burning scum and other debris thoroughly with this sponge. Gunpowder packed later is weak to moisture, so I don't want to sneeze much. All you have to do is lighten the water."
That said, I'm going to stick a stick with a spiral hook claw through the mouth of the cannon and scrape off the burrs and dirt inside the cannon cavity. Next, sponge the pre-prepared bucket water with a sponge bar before cleaning the cannon cavity. After I tried, I had two elite soldiers do the same.
"Load it when you're done cleaning. First, I can stuff the powder bag in this box through the cannon and push it into the back with the stone stump of this cleaning tool. This part is called the" arrow "."
I put a powder bag through the cannon, took a sponge from an elite soldier, and pushed it into the back of the cannon with a pointy arrow attached to the stone bump.
"Next, take the shell out of this box and stuff it through the mouth in the same way. Just like that, you can push the arrow deeper and deeper. Okay, that's it. Ready to fire next. Avoid the janitor by the door. Remember to keep your ears shut when you fire."
That's how you return the sponge to the Elite Soldier, and now you head to the Elite Soldier holding the fire gate with your thumb.
"In preparation for firing, we will first punch this cone into the fire gate and punch a hole in the powder bag. Then pour the igniter into the fire gate. Now we're ready to fire."
The edge of the paper casing, which was packed with one dose of igniter, was chewed off and the igniter was poured into the fire gate.
"Later, when I push the rope attached to this fuse into the fire gate, a roar of iron shells will blow up. I'll shoot you in the face instead of greeting you. Cover your ears!
The cannon has already been aimed at the walls of Griselburg. I pushed the rope at the end of the fuse into the fire gate.
Gahhhhhhh!
A thunderbolt or giant beast roar echoes, and bright white smoke covers the area. At the same time, I heard screams or angry voices coming from the mouth of Griselburg. When I looked at the area I was aiming for with my hands off the smoke, I saw that part of the castle wall was damaged. Yeah, it looks like if you shoot a few times at ten gates, you can break down the walls.
"The power is as you can see. Fine-tune your aim, clean, load, and fire. Repeat that. Remember the procedure? Hold down the fire gate, claw cleaning, sponge cleaning, stuffing gunpowder, stuffing shells, drilling with cones, preparing igniters, firing with commands, and returning first. This time, I will play the role of commander, so just act as commanded."
There seems to be no specific questions, so I will assign all the staff.
"Okay, let's go. Target, Gliesburg Castle Wall. Aim!"
At my command, the best soldiers will move the shelved cannon and aim it at the walls of Griselburg.
"Fire Gate Hold! Hook claw cleaning!
Elite soldiers with spiral bars push the spiral bars through the muzzle and clean the muzzle. Most of them are brand new so there should be no dirt.
Sponge cleaning!
Next, elite soldiers with sponge sticks put buckets of water on the sponge to clean the cannon cavity.
"Loading started! Gunpowder bag!
Elite soldiers pull their gunpowder bags out of the box and push them into the back with their arrows.
"Bomb-filled!
Next, the barrel is also filled with iron shells and pushed in with arrows. That's enough loading.
Ready to fire! Drill a hole in the cone and put the igniter in it!
The elite soldier holding the fire gate with his thumb threw a cone into the fire gate, drilled a hole in the powder bag, and then poured the ignition powder into the fire gate. All right.
"Earplugs! Ready to fire... Fire!
The gunfire sounded overlapping Zudododong, and the area became pure white with nitrogen smoke. I can also hear someone coughing. Should the artillery have a mask?
And one beat late and from the direction of Griselburg, "Wow!? I heard a scream. When the nitrogen smoke cleared up, there were ten shells and crushed walls everywhere. I don't see any signs of collapse yet, but I'm sure it's taking damage.
"Alright, it looks like it's taking damage. Aim! Fire gate pressed! Cleaning started! From the hooks!
The elite soldiers who confirmed the outcome of the battle began reloading with a cheering voice. Now, what do we keep shooting at the walls of Griselburg?
I was staring at a black-haired man with an ultimatum and an ultimatum with his tongue on the wall. If I can surrender, I surrender. But I can't help being taken hostage by my wife and children or relatives. None of us in the Born Griselburg Guard have any loyalty to the Holy King or Lord Adolf.
When I was a kid, those guys who broke into Griselburg with my face were just subordinates, and they made my neighbors' brothers and sisters, uncles and aunts look terrible. They even look down at us as sinful barbarians who were dating subhumans. Fuck them.
But who the hell is that man? It doesn't look that strong, but the PLA soldiers seem to be listening to the man with great care. I don't think so, but is he a high-ranking man? It sounds strange to say that the Liberation Army is full of aliens and the status of human men is high... but what are you doing anyway? Looks like he's doing something with a black metal cylinder.
As he tilted his neck, a black metal cylinder that the man was playing with sprayed white smoke and a roar sounded. Then the walls shake a beat behind. What the hell!?
"Hmm, what happened!? Report the situation!
The knight of the Holy King's Army shouts with a great attitude. Soon after, a soldier belonging to the guard who had been deployed across the castle gate came to report.
"Damage to the walls!? From that distance without magic!?
It certainly didn't seem to use magic, but isn't that black-light cylinder magic or something? One shot and this mess... hey, there's ten of them lined up. What would happen if they attacked us all at once?
"Hey, Griselburg's walls were a tough enemy."
At the five-shot shooting, part of the wall began to collapse, and at the five-shot shooting, collapse began everywhere, and then Shikotama shot into the vicinity of the castle gate, destroying the castle gate and its left and right circular towers to the point of no skin.
Naturally, they are unilaterally attacking from outside the enemy's counterattack, so this damage is zero. I can't say anything about the damage over there, but I was warned by loudspeakers several times along the way that it would be dangerous to stay away from the walls and gates, so I think it would be a little better.
"It's amazing. Is this the power of Koske?"
Ellen murmured while covering her mouth and nose with a white handkerchief. Amarier and Berta are waiting in the back tower, so we may be able to see the power of the cannon better than we are, blocked by nitrogen smoke.
Koske, I need to get into the city.
"Roger that. I'll make a bridge. I need your escort."
Clean up the cannon in the inventory, escorted by Elite Soldiers and Miss Zamir and headed to the moat to bridge the water harbor with a stone block.
"Okay, let's get started. Never reach out to a defenceless citizen. Of course, looting is forbidden. You know what I mean?
Whoa!
Okay, let's go. I'll leave the guards behind to those in charge of the artillery. Is that good? "
Got it
Forty men in charge of the artillery will stand by to escort me, Ellen, the civilians, and the Adolese priests. Even if the ear was blocked, I heard the gunshots at close range, or there was a slight discomfort in the ear and the sense of equilibrium, so this happened. Such a small difference could be fatal in a turmoil.
Watch elite soldiers with matching armor enter Griselburg.
I destroyed the castle walls and gates to show you how imperfect they were, and I hope you lost your war. As many other Adolese priests are here besides me, we should be able to heal them if they're not dead, so I hope you surrender soon.
