Pirates: From the Planet to the Starry Sky

Chapter 20 Assault on the Palace
When the layers of rock disintegrated and scattered all over the place, the body of Root, the captain of the Rope Pirates, was revealed.

Root's body was standing on the ground at this time. Behind Root's back, several huge rock cones pierced Root's body, and the rock protruding from his chest pierced into the ground, supporting Root's body.

Root hung his hands down, and the ropes were wrapped around Root's body, and then embedded in the scattered rocks around him.

"That's the solution."

Richie emerged from the ground and stood on the ground again.

Looking at Root's body, Richie said.

"Quickly clean up the battlefield, and then the whole army boards the ship and heads to the mercenary kingdom."

Dispose of the corpses of the pirates, cut off the heads of all the pirates with bounties, and prepare to exchange them for Berry.

Then find some usable materials from the ruins, and then send them to the warehouse of the battleship.

Then, all members boarded the ship and headed towards the Mercenary Kingdom.

"Toot, toot, toot."

The phone bug got through, Rich said. "Moses, I'm Ricky, the Rope Pirates have been dealt with, and now 1000 members of the science team are preparing to go."

"Your Highness."

The phone bug shouted respectfully, and soon, a voice appeared on the phone bug's side.

"I'm Ruhr."

"Father."

"Now the science troop you lead is attacking from the southern port of the mercenary kingdom, quickly entering the mercenary kingdom, raiding the mercenary king's palace, and must deal with the king inside the palace."

"Yes."

After getting the order, Richie hung up the phone and spoke.

"Pass my order, all warships are heading to the southern port, and all soldiers prepare supplies and prepare for an urgent march."

Rich's order was issued, and each battleship started its engine and quickly moved forward on the sea.

Within the mercenary kingdom, following the king's order, [-] elite mercenaries from all over the kingdom began to gather at the northern port.

In order to command this battle, the king of the mercenary kingdom specially dispatched two strong men under his command.

Coupled with the heads of various large mercenary regiments, it can be said that the mercenary kingdom is the best.

One hundred thousand troops gathered at the port, and the reorganization could not be completed in a short while.After all, it is a mercenary group that does not control each other, and it will take a while to integrate suddenly.

Therefore, it lasted for three days to unite all the mercenaries in the chaos.

After that, the first batch of [-] mercenaries, as the vanguard, formed a large fleet on various warships and marched towards the occupied island.

The army was dispatched, and it took a day for the vanguard army to reach the island occupied by the Rock Mountain Kingdom.

At this time, the island had been renamed Victory City by the Rock Mountain Kingdom, which meant that the Rock Mountain Kingdom would win the war against the Mercenary Kingdom.

Around the island, there are some ports where you can go by boat.Positions, machine gun bunkers, and forts were densely built.

Five thousand soldiers of the Rock Mountain Kingdom are stationed all over the island, preparing for a sniper battle.To prevent the landing of the mercenary kingdom, it can be said that all kinds of firepower are dense.

When the first batch of soldiers who landed in the Mercenary Kingdom washed up on the coast.What was ushered in was a firepower network composed of artillery, machine guns, and rifles, blocking the advance of these soldiers.

The first batch of soldiers, about 5000 people, were directly lost here, and the death rate was so fast that there was not even a single wave.

Then the second wave, the number increased to 1, but it was the same, without the slightest defense, they were all left on the coast.

The loss of the second wave of soldiers forced the army of the mercenary kingdom to get serious, and each of the mercenary captains had a trace of seriousness on their faces.

However, there is a generational difference in weapons, and whether there is a strong one who can make the final decision, the Rock Mountain Kingdom can't help but release the line for a while.

As a result, the army of the mercenary kingdom was delayed.Richie landed in a remote jungle at the southern port.

On the other side of the coastline, Ricky landed quietly with his raiding force, lurking day and night, avoiding the patrolling garrison soldiers of the mercenary kingdom, and marching towards the city of the palace.

This time, Rich took most of the troops with him, and only about 200 people who were wounded and guarded the ship remained on board.

It took some time to advance all the way, but just like that, we arrived at the city where the palace of the mercenary king was located.

Since a large number of elite mercenaries were dispatched to the battlefield, the soldiers left behind at this time were only second-class reserve soldiers.

Under the city wall, in the darkness, Richie led eight hundred soldiers under the city wall.

"Your Highness, there are only 100 people on the city wall right now. We can blast open the city gate and rush in. The enemy will definitely not have time to react." Baru suggested beside Rich.

"No."

Rich rejected Baloo's suggestion.

"Now is the most critical step. If we startle the enemy and let the king of the mercenary kingdom escape, then we will fall short."

"Balu, as an assault force, quickly climb up the city wall, eliminate the patrolling soldiers, and lead the large army into the city."

"Yes."

"Art."

"exist."

"After entering the city, your sniper brigade quickly occupied the commanding heights of various places to form a hidden sniper station. Ensure the safety of the army attacking the palace."

"Yes."

"The rest, after passing through the city wall, quickly headed towards the palace, breaking into the palace in the shortest possible time. Anyone with weapons along the way can be dealt with."

According to the plan, in the second half of the night, most of the mercenaries were a little sleepy.At this time, the rock ladders leaned against the city wall silently.

Led by Balu, the most elite fighters among the 800 people quickly climbed up the city wall.

Under the cover of night, soldiers stepped forward quickly one by one.

Looking at the patrolling soldiers, the soldiers of the Science Corps quickly rushed up, covered their mouths with one hand, wiped their necks with a dagger, and quickly solved the patrolling soldiers on the city wall.

Immediately afterwards, the follow-up troops climbed onto the city wall.Standing on the city wall, looking at the glittering palace in the distance, Richie waved his hand and jumped off the city wall.

Groups of soldiers marched through the night-shrouded streets.Everyone encountered along the way was killed silently.

Without causing a big commotion, Rich and his party reached the palace of the mercenary kingdom all the way.

"Then, you won't be able to get away from now on."

Standing under the palace city at this moment, Richie looked at the tall palace and castle, thinking to himself.

"According to the plan, kill in."

Finally, Rich gave the order and spoke.

The patrolling soldiers outside the castle were quickly dealt with, and then groups of soldiers rushed into the palace and continued to spread around.

At this time, Richie himself merged into the earth. The next moment, on the ground, rocks appeared on the streets around the palace, and then more and more, gradually covering the palace.

Then, layer after layer of rocks were covered in an unstoppable way, making the rocks thicker and stronger, even if it was bombarded by heavy artillery, it would not be able to penetrate the rocks.

"Now the king of the mercenary kingdom is here, and I have sealed off the surrounding area. Then, if you catch a turtle in the urn, you will find the king of the mercenary kingdom sooner or later."

In the night, the palace was awakened by the battle.Soldiers quickly guarded the royal family members' houses one by one.

The imperial guards inside the palace were quickly assembled, quickly pierced their armor, and groups of soldiers stepped up their patrols, trying to find the enemy.

But at this time, everyone inside the palace was horrified to find that there were rock layers around the palace, and there was no blank space. The entire palace was now shrouded in rocks.
