Chapter 79 Running locomotive

Outside the railway station in the eastern district of Leden.

The artillery regiment that was preparing to support the front-line library battlefield received a transfer order and shifted its direction to surround the railway station. Twenty-four heavy artillery pieces spewed flames, and the waiting hall in sight was completely reduced to ruins. A shell drew a striking arc in the air, and then disappeared at the end of the arc, accurately blowing off a section of the rails.

Inside the railway station, the four members of the action team came to the front of the armored train. Gray Knight Leiman put the porcupine down. The tall young man was dying at this moment. His arm was cut off at the root, and a broken tough knife was left in the gap between his ribs. His back was bloody and fleshy, and the bodies of several flies could be vaguely seen.

"The next few groups of carriages are not needed. Let's drive the front of the car out."

Gray Knight Leiman stood up and went to the tail, holding a captured tough knife in his hand. White light spread over the blade. With one slash, the iron hook connecting the front of the car and the carriage broke.

The whistling wind caused by the explosion blew against the outer wall. The Grey Knight walked around skillfully. As the white smoke rose, the clanging sound became more intense. The front of the train quickly moved, and because there was no carriage to drag it down, the speed increased significantly.

Rounds of artillery fire bombarded the train station.

When the front of the train drove out, it almost flipped over with a bang. The rails were incomplete. If it was a whole train, this would be enough to cause a rollover accident.

Tommy looked out the window. The sense of crisis reported by the Wildebeest Knight gradually subsided. They were gradually moving away from the city of Leden, but the situation was still not foolproof.

"This direction is behind the Prussian front. If the enemy wants to stop us and blow up a large area of ​​railroad tracks, we will be completely isolated and helpless."

After finishing his work, Gray Knight Lehman sat back on the ground. "Railroad tracks are lifelines. The Prussians will not give up easily before Leden is completely lost."

Jiang He lowered his eyes and said nothing. The other party was too sure. Two monochrome knights went deep behind the enemy lines, which was equivalent to sabotaging random locations. The Prussian high-level officials might be able to tolerate this, but the decapitation tactic was definitely the first thing to prevent.

But if the Gray Knight wanted to lead the team to be annihilated, it would be a bit redundant at this moment. After all, just now was the best time. Whether it was forcibly killing or choosing prisoners, Gray Knight Lehman could play a decisive role.

The armored train head was driving at a high speed. After passing the checkpoints along the way, the garrisoned soldiers would often fire several rounds of volleys after firing a warning shot, but ordinary bullets had no deterrent effect on the armored wall.

The breath of the porcupine on the floor was getting weaker and weaker. With his strength, it was no problem for him to fight or suppress an elite knight. However, he was in danger when he encountered the situation before.

Jiang He pondered for a while, took out three alchemical vitality potions from his pocket, and poured them all into the porcupine's mouth.

Tommy was amazed at his comrade's generosity. One alchemical potion was worth 10 D-level military merits, which roughly translated to 30 lives of Prussian soldiers. For such alchemical products, the military supply department only sold them and did not accept them. The exchange amount had not changed since the war began.

The vitality potion was like blood, pouring into the porcupine's dying body. The wound began to heal slowly, the infected blackened rotten flesh fell off by itself, and the breath became stable.

A quarter of an hour later, the porcupine's eyes lighted up again, and he said hoarsely, "I'm sorry, I actually thought you were a deserter before."

Jiang He said calmly, "I did run away."

Porcupine said without embarrassment, "There must be some unavoidable difficulties."

"Drink some wine first to rinse your mouth." Tommy took out a flat aluminum wine bottle from the bullet bag on his waist.

Porcupine took it with a trembling hand and said seriously, "You are definitely a brave warrior to fight side by side with Mr. Red Knight."

Tommy's mouth twitched. In fact, he and Rhine ran together. On the opposite side were many knights and infantry divisions led by Chongjian. There was no hope for the four or five hundred people on their side to hold on. The command ordered them to fight until dawn, which was completely deceiving them to die. The only thing to be thankful for was that no one would pursue it afterwards.

For a long while, the porcupine barely cheered up.

Jiang He said, "Your quills can be used as alchemical materials. Pull them off and give me some."

"No problem." Porcupine nodded and immediately started to pull out the quills on his body. He has always been one of the material suppliers of the camp's quartermaster department. The quills are the main materials for alchemical bullets such as fragmentation bullets, armor-piercing bullets, and sharp bullets.

Gray Knight Leiman said, "The first step of our mission has failed. Next, we will be behind the enemy and find a chance to return to Leden City."

Jiang He said bluntly, "From the beginning, you came to the train station, so it was within your expectations to get on this section of the train."

Gray Knight Leiman was silent.

Tommy said, "If you don't want to be the bottom, we can only go our separate ways."

Porcupine looked left and right, and finally closed his eyes and pretended to be dizzy.

Grey Knight Leiman sighed, took out a map from his jacket pocket, and said, "The city of Lieden is the largest material transportation hub before the Prussian Somme River Front, and there are a large number of private soldier training camps in the rear."

"The largest of them has more than 10,000 people, all of whom are native Prussian youths, relying on a gunpowder depot. Most of them have only touched guns for less than a few weeks and their combat power is weak."

"My goal is to destroy the gunpowder depot and earn a lot of military merits."

"As for the plan of the Sword of the Reverse Tree, an ancient, even if he was one of the most outstanding knights in the past, cannot resist fighter planes and artillery. I decided to focus on myself."

Porcupine opened his eyes and said with difficulty: "Should we kill those recruits?"

Grey Knight Lehman nodded: "I have no psychological burden. They are soldiers when they pick up guns. They will kill our soldiers on the battlefield. If I am not limited in ability, I even plan to keep operating behind enemy lines."

No mistakes in one sentence, one post, one content, one 6, one 9, one book, one bar!

Tommy asked: "How to divide the military merits."

Grey Knight Lehman said solemnly, "The Red Knight and I will each take 40%, and you two will share 20%."

Jiang He did not express his opinion. He still had doubts. The real problem was that the action team had not encountered effective resistance so far, and the Grey Knight was avoiding the important and focusing on the trivial.

Of course, he did not refuse a large amount of military merits.

Two hours later, the front of the car drove out of the city of Lieden and entered the plain. Looking out of the window, the Prussian trench line in the distance was spread on the ground, scattering waves of bullets, harvesting the lives of the British charging soldiers. Even now, the warring parties still have a mysterious "love" for trenches and death charges.

The four-man team jumped out of the car halfway.

Porcupine has basically recovered his mobility, but the vitality potion is not enough to restore his lost arm.

"Mr. Red Knight, I heard before that only the best warriors in your team can serve as your assistant. Please allow me to take over this honor."

Tommy's face changed when he heard this. In his opinion, compared with the previous serious injury at the train station, this is the real approach of death.

Jiang He said seriously, "Then you are Charles XVI now."

Porcupine nodded heavily, which is a kind of recognition.

The sun sets in the west and the sky darkens.

Gray Knight Lehman led the team forward. After a long journey, everyone climbed the mountain and came to an abandoned village. At the foot of the mountain was the target's gunpowder depot and training camp.
