"Reload faster!"
"Don't shake your fingers, one shot is embedded in the loader!"
"The teammates in the front row need your loaded ammunition. If it is too slow, the enemy will rush to kill you!"
"Don't look anywhere else, just look at your fingers!"
"As long as your teammates are still shooting, don't stop your movements!"
In the First Army camp, Lord Brian was loudly urging the recruits to practice loading, and Nail was one of them.
He was not a recruit at all, even an old member of the First Army. Since the militia team defeated the evil beasts under the leadership of His Royal Highness, he joined the team at the strong request of Iron Head. According to Tietou's words, carrying a musket to fight the enemy and defending His Royal Highness the Prince and Miss Nana is more promising than digging mines for a lifetime.
Not long after Nail was recruited, the militia team was reorganized into the First Army. In addition to fighting the evil beasts, he followed His Royal Highness Roland and Lord Iron Axe to defeat the great nobles who had never imagined before, and overthrew the throne of Duke Ryan. Even the army of the new king, Tifeko, was unable to step into Border Town. After these battles, he has become a squad leader of the Musketeers.
However, according to the habits of the First Army, whenever a large number of recruits join, some veterans will be arranged to be placed in the newly formed team to serve as the instructors of the recruits, accompany them to practice, and live with them. At the beginning, Nail was not very reluctant when he was selected, which meant that he could not stand on the front line and fight with his familiar partners for the first time. However, when he enlisted in the army, he was also led by an old militia member, so he had to accept this. Task.
The veteran who served as his team's guide at that time was Lord Brian, and now he has become the commander of the first battalion of the Musket Team.
Nails hoped that one day in the future, he would also be able to wear the medal conferred by His Royal Highness the prince and give orders in front of nearly a thousand people. Iron Head is indeed right, this profession is much better than operating a steam engine in front of a mine.
"Sir, how long are we going to practice this?" A young man muttered in the queue that he was in charge of, "It's still snowing in the sky."
"Practice until you can close your eyes to complete this action in five breaths." Nail stopped in front of him, "Your name is Haimon, right? Remember to call a report before you speak, this is the rule of the First Army !"
"Report," shouted the short man next to Haymon, still moving in his hands, "are there any eggs to eat tonight?"
This sentence caused a drooling voice in the queue.
Nail couldn't help but cocked the corners of his mouth, so that this group of recruits from the northern and southern regions of the kingdom could maintain good discipline even in the snow. In addition to half a month of uninterrupted training and stick education, there was enough food to eat. All-you-can-eat porridge and bacon jerky are a must, along with the occasional piece of kipper or even an egg. However, the latter will only appear in the meal after fighting against evil beasts or field training.
"I have to ask if the evil beasts will come to trouble Border Town," he shrugged. "Your name?"
"Ai Ku, my lord."
"The bullet in your hand has been stuffed for a long time, and the grandmother next door to me is more flexible than you," Nail put away his smile and said solemnly, "If it is still like this before the practice is over, let alone eggs, even I will cancel your share of the meat and wheat porridge!"
Everyone immediately bowed their heads, and it seemed that no one wanted to be punished and banned from eating dinner.
At this moment, a rapid bell rang suddenly at the lookout post of the city wall.
Evil beast attacked.
"Stop practice!" Brian shouted loudly, "Each platoon instructor leads his men into the city wall area and prepares for battle!"
"Have you heard all," Nail urged, "grab the ammunition in your hand, don't drop any of them, just line up to the top of the city as you normally do in training. Our position is on the fourth section of the city wall, let's move! "
He didn't expect to actually be able to eat eggs, he thought to himself.
…
After arriving at the predetermined location, Nails saw that the musketeers were ready. Facing the dark tide looming in the distance, they calmly did the last gun inspection, and then put the barrels on the wall stack.
Nail couldn't help but feel a little regretful. Originally, he could also hold a revolver rifle and teach these beasts a hard lesson.
Bullets are inserted into the loader, and then placed in a position within the reach of the front row personnel. One or two people behind a veteran are responsible for loading. When necessary, they can shoot all five bullets in one breath. I don't know how much stronger it is than the flintlock gun I used before.
"Look, here are the witches!" Hymon whispered.
"They're... beautiful," Aiku murmured. "Before I came here, I heard the church's description and thought they were ugly and scary."
"Do you just pay attention to this?" The former snorted disdainfully, "It's not like you didn't see that last time around, the woman with the giant sword slashed down mixed-species demonic beasts with one blow, if I also have the look That kind of power is good.”
"In case that is really the power of the devil"
"Fart!" Nail shouted, "Miss Nana is also a witch, can't she be a devil," he said in a low voice, "If you dare to mention this in front of the veterans of the First Army, I guarantee that the first In two days, you will become bruised and swollen, she is the angel of the town, the power of the gods, understand? Now focus on loading, this is not practice!"
After teaching these talkative guys, Nail took the time to take a look ahead. This time, the group of evil beasts is not much different from the usual ones. It seems that it won't take long to clean the battlefield... Wait, what is that
There seemed to be a huge figure mixed in between the black tides. He began to think it was a turtle-shell siege beast, but the figure seemed to be bigger, and its movement speed was much faster.
When the other party got closer, Nail couldn't help but widen his eyes, it was actually a huge evil beast that he had never seen before! The huge fangs are almost as thick as the body of a human being, like a sickle in front of the face, comparable to the limbs of a stone pillar splashing layers of snow and mist as they run, almost every step makes the earth tremble slightly, and the four-meter-plus city wall actually It's not as high as its jaw, and if it hits it straight, I'm afraid this mud wall will be torn apart immediately.
artillery!
There is no doubt that the musket is extremely limited against this giant monster, and only the big stuff of the artillery team can stop its progress! And the most powerful of them is undoubtedly the new long-barreled gun on the sixth section of the city wall.
"My God, look there," the recruits screamed from behind, "what monster is that!"
"God bless, is this the devil in hell?"
"Shut your mouth and continue doing what you need to do!" Nail swallowed and looked at the position of the new gun. The barrel of the gun that reflected the silver light had already moved, and the straight muzzle turned slowly. , aiming at the direction where the giant beast came.
I saw a dazzling fire flashed, followed by a deafening roar! .
