After a night of fierce fighting, the corridors near the artillery positions on the west side were now full of corpses, including Venetta and Tanirian.

If the Venetta hadn't brought the remaining gunpowder back to the barracks every day, the losses last night would have been even worse.

After dawn, the Vineta people began to clean up the battlefield and restrain the bodies of comrades.

Winters and Taylor, who had been hastily treated the wound, immediately returned to the West-Fourth Gun Team.

There was a creepy wound on Winters' forehead, and the black cotton thread barely sewed the wound. If the injured position was more than two inches down, Winters' right eye would definitely not be able to be protected.

Taylor's knife wound was on the top of his head, and he had to shave his hair off in order to stitch it.

However, they are all lucky because they are still alive.

Buba lay in front of them, the body had become stiff. His eyes, whose pupils had dilated, looked at the sky without any hesitation, his mouth was big, as if he was still shouting.

Almost all of his right half of his neck was smashed, and a lead bullet from a heavy musket killed him. In addition to this fatal gunshot wound, he also had more than a dozen other wounds of all sizes on his body.

He fought with wounds until a lead bullet killed him.

At the last moment of his life, Buba still held his halberd tightly. He held it so hard that Taylor could not separate his hand from the halberd.

Winters stood silently behind Taylor. In the last scene he remembered, many enemies rushed towards him. Suddenly, he felt like someone was hit hard with a warhammer on his head, and blood blurted his vision. Buba roared and waved his halberd to block the enemy. Taylor and Wake dragged themselves farther and farther away from Buba.

He couldn't remember what happened after that. The hit on his head made him almost faint, blurring his consciousness.

During the melee of artillery positions, the Tanirian shooters immediately noticed the Venetta officer who was rushing in the front.

Three powerful crossbows were quickly aimed at Winters, and the two crossbowmen missed the shot, but the third crossbowman succeeded.

A short and thick iron crossbow hit Winters' face and knocked him to the ground.

If it weren't for wearing a helmet, Winters had been shot and killed on the spot.

Even Taylor and others thought that Warrant Officer Montane had been shot to death. When they snatched back the "corpse", they found that the warrant Officer was still angry. Although the crossbow arrow penetrated the helmet, they could not continue to go deeper.

During the melee, the still alive soldiers fought to the death to protect the vaguely conscious Winters, and Buba was killed in the process.

If Buba hadn't left behind and blocked the Tanirian soldiers, Taylor and Wake would have no chance to drag Winters away.

"He died like this." Winters thought sadly: "Before he died, he only ate half a piece of white bread and drank a little beef soup. He said he was very happy to eat the white bread, and then he died like this."

Sacrifice for the country, glorious and great, maybe the messenger would tell Buba's parents like this. But Winters knew that Buba did not die for Veneta at all, and he died from the inflated ambitions of a small group of ambitions.

Those people took him from his hometown to the island with a piece of shredded bread, and then let him die here.

"He is less than twenty years old, and he has only eaten white bread once..."

"Isn't this what you want?" Old Taylor closed Buba's eyes with his trembling hands: "You gave Buba white bread and Buba meat, isn't it just for this? Isn't it just for him to fight to the death?"

Winters did not answer.

"Is it?" Taylor's emotions suddenly became excited. He turned around and grabbed Winters' arm, looked at Winters' eyes angrily and asked, "Is it or not?"

"no."

Old Taylor seemed to have become aged in his teenagers, and his anger disappeared, leaving only endless emptiness. He murmured: "That silly boy Buba didn't die in vain... he didn't die in vain..."

Winters was silent for a long time and whispered, "No, he died in vain. If it weren't for the ambition of some people, he wouldn't have to die, Dan wouldn't have to die, and many people wouldn't have to die. We wouldn't have to fight with the Tanirians here."

"I ate military food when the emperor was still there. I have seen through it for more than 40 years. The life of the big head soldier is the most despicable thing in the world. Buba's life and my life are all, and no big shots regard us as human beings." Old Taylor carefully sorted out his appearance for Buba and said to Winters: "Big head soldier is not afraid of death, but is afraid of death in vain. Buba is not for the big shots above, he fights with Tani for you. If you are not using him, he will be worth it..."

Taylor covered the wound on Buba's neck with his collar, stood up, looked at Winters' eyes, and said seriously, "Welfare Montane, you have a magic... a magic that makes the big-headed soldiers willing to die. I have only seen this ability in one person before you, that is Ned Smith. Please do not abuse this magic, please remember your current kindness, and do not let us die in vain when you become a big man."

...

...

The Tanirians raided three of the eight artillery positions at night and nailed two and a half groups of artillery.

The artillery of the West-2nd and West-3rd gun teams were all nailed to death, and all the star officers and sentries were killed. The artillery of the West-4th gun teams was mostly protected due to Winters' counterattack.

After the reinforcements arrived, they quickly repelled the attackers on the West-Four Artillery positions. All twenty Tanirian soldiers who had not escaped were captured and captured.

The weirdest thing about this raid is that the sentries from the other two positions failed to issue any alarm.

The post-war survey proved that the sentry did resist fiercely, but no one heard any abnormal noises in the two positions. The Montagne team in the West-four artillery position and the Soclu team in the West-first artillery position were both like this.

Rumors began to spread in the military camp, and the soldiers privately said that the Tani in the city sacrificed six children to the devil in exchange for some kind of evil method that could kill people silently in the dark.

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! When Layton learned about this, he was furious, and the angry Layton personally tortured the captured prisoners.

According to the prisoners' confession, they did not attack from the city gate. A sailor in the city had an idea and used the pulley set technology of dropping large warships to small boats onto the city wall. He used pulleys and wooden boards to build a temporary elevator, and quietly put the soldiers off the city wall from the corner of the west wall.

According to the captives, the first one they attacked was the West-3 gun group. When they were about to attack the West-2 gun group, the West-4 gun group sounded the alarm bell.

In order to knock out another set of artillery, Captain Hernan, who led the night attack troops, ventured to split half of the men and returned to attack the West-4th Artillery Group, and led his own team to attack the West-2nd Artillery Group.

However, no matter how Leiden tortured the captured Tanirian soldiers, they could not tell how they could raid the Venetta position quietly.

On the night of the night attack, not only the Venetta people could hear nothing, but even the Tanirians who launched the attack could hear nothing. The sound of footsteps, shouts, and the intersecting weapons could hear nothing.

In the past, they were full of screams and shouts of killing in hand-to-hand combat, but this time they could only see others opening their mouths and not hear others making noises.

All the prisoners confessed that they could only hear their own voices during the night attack, and that they heard the same voices that were similar to those that covered their ears.

According to the captives, Captain Hernan played a kind of black witchcraft. As long as he wanted, he could deprive others of his hearing within dozens of meters around him.

Only one prisoner recalled that there was a masked guard beside Captain Hernan. The masked guard did not fight, but no one found it strange because he was a personal guard.

But the captive was always Hernan's subordinate. He had never seen this mysterious masked guard beside Hernan before tonight, and he had never heard of Hernan's black witchcraft before tonight.

In addition, no valuable information can be found.

Two officers, more than 60 soldiers and twenty-eight cannons were lost inexplicably. The furious Rost Leiden vowed to execute all the prisoners in the most cruel way in front of the defenders.

But when Layton decided to do it recklessly, no one could stop him.

The Tanirian soldiers on the city wall watched tremblingly as the Venetta people prepared for the execution: the soldiers moved dozens of wood more than two meters long to the position, and the carpenter began to sharpen the wood they moved.

The shackled Tanirians were taken to the front of the walls, many of whom had been tortured to the point of dying.

After the prisoners were pressed to the ground, they immediately understood their miserable fate. They begged, howled, and prayed, but the executioners were unmoved.

The executioner inserted the sharpened wooden stake into the [Yuegong] gate of the held captive captive, and the tortured captive screamed that would make the bravest man have nightmares.

Another executioner behind the captive held up a large wooden stick with both hands and used all his strength to knock down. The wooden stake was nailed into the human body at once.

Death on the spot is already a relief for the prisoners, and the undead prisoners will have to experience even more terrifying torture.

The executioner then lifted the wooden stake and inserted it into the open space in front of the city wall. Under the weight of the human body, the wooden stake continued to be inserted into the body bit by bit.

The tortured person will die quickly, but the wooden stake will not stop. Finally, the wooden tip emerges from the captain's mouth and neck, and penetrates the captain's body on it.

More than twenty wooden stakes were placed in a row there, and the prisoners died tragically under the gaze of the defenders.

Even the most numb person would tremble after witnessing this cruel scene like hell.

Not only the Tanirians on the walls suffered great mental torture, but even the Venetta soldiers were shocked.

Leonard, the priest of the army, said to Layton even more bluntly: "General Leiton, you will go to hell!"

"Hmph, as long as William Kidd goes down first." Layton disdained the contempt from the clergy.

Even Andre, who had no empathy, couldn't bear to see this scene and whispered to Winters: "General Leiden has done a bit too much. If you want to kill him, you can kill him. Why do you have to do this..."

Winters replied expressionlessly: "No, Leiton did not 'kill' them, Leiton'd 'executed' them. This is not aimless tyranny, it is a bloody performance."

"You... will only make the Tanirians on the walls more tenacious..." Antonio sighed.

"Maybe it is." Leighton said indifferently: "But I also imprinted my fear in their souls."
