Otherworldly Castle Era

Vol 3 Chapter 12: Loot 1 empty

   Attacking directly with artillery will make the ‘lord’ in the castle dangerous, but blasting is different!

   As long as one or a few gaps are blasted out, there will be no suspense for the rest!

After hearing the order, the artillerymen brought a wooden barrel, and under the protection of the infantrymen, they approached the ruined castle. Under a city wall, a pack of gunpowder was piled extensively.

   Regardless of the three seven twenty-one, light the fuse and make the surrounding soldiers retreat. Anyway, the people inside will hide far away, not afraid of being killed.

   "Boom~", a large hole appeared in one of the walls of the castle, and the infantrymen rushed in with their shields.

   Ping-pong-pong for a while, and after a few more screams, there is silence...

   "Let me go! I am the lord, you can't do this to me! Oh..."

An old white man wearing a dyed cloth was **** by the soldiers. He kept yelling for words that he didn't understand. Until the soldiers stuffed a ball of things into his mouth, he quieted down. .

   After a while, a group of people, big and small, old and young, men and women, were tied up.

   According to the order, all the people in the castle were caught alive except those who resisted!

   "General, these people were brought out from the castle in the city!" A small captain pointed to the group of people **** behind him and reported to Di Qing.

  Di Qing looked at the clothes of these people, nodded, and ordered: "Very good! Let all the intelligence personnel come over!"

   "General!" The intelligence personnel came over soon, they were already on standby.

   Di Qing gave a hum, pointed at the people who were **** with his riding whip, and said, "Ask, who are these people!"

   "Yes, General!" After clasping a fist, the intelligence officer turned to the group of people, saw Kevin who was gagged, and stepped forward to take off the things from Kevin's mouth.

   "I am the lord, you can't do this to me, you..." Before the intelligence officer asked, Kevin revealed his identity.

  The intelligence personnel faced Di Qing again, clasped his fists and said, "This person said he is the lord!"

  Di Qing said happily, "Then ask him again, where all his food is stored, and also, ask him what he thinks, how could he come to provoke an enemy who doesn't know anything?"

   The intelligence personnel turned around and translated Di Qing's words aside, Kevin grunted with an iron face, turned his head, and stopped making noise!

Now, without translating, Di Qing also knows this person's attitude, hey, he laughed, and said to the intelligence personnel: "These people are handed over to you, as long as you don't kill them, whatever else is free. Remember, This general only wants food now!"

   Since this so-called lord is so spine, he also respects the quality of the other party, and let the other party enjoy his admiration!

  Di Qing glanced at the prisoners who were being held, no longer interested, but ordered: "Knock out all the people in the city!"

  He didn't want these civilians to fight the soldiers desperately in order to protect a mouthful or two of food. Moreover, plundering is a shameless thing. If no one sees it, the soldiers will not have so much psychological pressure!

  The soldiers obeyed the orders, and the cavalry on both sides also let go of the gates and turned to prevent these people from entering the city.

   No matter how many talents this person has been expelled, it is too late to be happy to be expelled from the city now, how can he go back! They were really scared by the sound and power of the artillery and the fierceness of Xia Guo's soldiers!

  The fighters don't wait for them to clean up and drive them away, so when these people were driven out of the city, they didn't carry many items at all, and the rest were all in the city!

   "Well, it's almost there!" Di Qing looked at the sky, it was already afternoon, it was almost dark, and ordered: "Start harvesting!"

   The order was given, and the soldiers and the militias behind, all rushed into the small town and began to search for it!

   Empty carriages were also driven into the small town, and then it didn't take long for a full carriage to come out.

  Lu Su called a carriage to a stop and looked at the food inside, and asked the groom, "Where did the food come from?"

   The groom replied: "These are all transported from the castle in the middle of the city!"

   Lu Su waved his hand and let the carriage go on. He thought to himself, this is the food of the lord, it has all been confiscated and clean!

   After a while, the sky was completely dark, Di Qing ordered the troops to be closed, and the gong sounded from behind.

  The so-called hear the drum and move forward, Mingjin retreat! This gold refers to the gong!

   In the main account at night, Lu Su handed the military report that was calculated today to Di Qing, saying: "General, today's harvest is quite good, but the ammunition consumption is huge!"

   Di Qing took a look at the military newspaper, and it was really!

   The military newspaper showed that no soldiers were killed in today's battle, only a dozen were slightly injured.

   It seems that the enemies are all concentrated on the east and south walls, preparing to resist their attack, but unfortunately they were all buried in the end!

   Next is the harvest of food. Except for the dozens of carriages found in the castle, there are more or less so many carriages in the other mansions.

   All in total, there are thirty-two carts, which is sixty-four tons of food! That's it, I still didn't search for those grain shops and houses.

  Because it was very late today, Di Qing ordered people to search for these obvious places with food, and other scattered places, and it would not be too late to look for them after daybreak tomorrow!

   Di Qing looked at the last item about ammunition consumption, and frowned~www.wuxiaspot.com~ and said, "Is so much ammunition consumed today?"

   Lu Su helplessly spread his hands, and replied: "I also hope that I was wrong, but that's the truth!"

   Di Qing frowned more tightly, and said, "But this is too much. This is half of the army's inventory!"

   "In fact, there is not much ammunition left!" Lu Su added: "General, don't forget that there is also the consumption of the battle two days ago!"

Looking at Di Qing’s frowning face, Lu Su explained: “One shot of a siege artillery will consume ten catties of gunpowder. Although the consumption of a field artillery is small, it’s not that small. General, you count. Forget it, how many guns did we fire?"

   Di Qing left it alone, was surprised, and sighed: "There is nothing more than 30,000 catties of gunpowder!"

   "Yes! We only have more than 10,000 catties of gunpowder left, and the remaining shells and gunpowder are not enough for a battle!" Lu Su also sighed.

   I didn’t feel anything when I fired the artillery, but now I think about it. The power of these artillery is amazing, but the consumption is even more amazing!

   Lu Su thought for a while, and said, "General, we can only report truthfully to the emperor, and hope that there are enough ammunition in the country to withstand our consumption!"

   Di Qing put down the military newspaper in his hand, and reluctantly agreed: "It can only be so!"
