Chapter 156, Three Swordsman Planes 3

——Richelieu is probably the prime minister who was "assassinated" the most times in French history.

When Roland fell to the ground to dodge, he couldn't help complaining secretly in his heart.

The King of France had just clarified the Queen Mother's "coordinating edict" and retained Richelieu's position as prime minister, when someone came to assassinate Richelieu.

After the loud bang of the flintlock gun and the heavy smell of gunpowder smoke gradually dissipated, Roland remembered one thing——

The location where she and Richelieu are now is in front of the church in Sweetwater Town, and it is also very close to the "new style residence" of Prince Andrew.

She immediately raised her head and looked towards Prince Andrew's house.

Sure enough, there was a brass barrel of a flintlock gun protruding from Prince Andrew's window, with green smoke emitting from the mouth of the barrel.The Duke poked his head out of the window and gestured to Roland, indicating that he had just successfully sniped an "assassin" who was assassinating Richelieu.

Indeed, from Prince Andrei's residence, he could just observe the buildings and crowds in front of the church in Sweetwater Town from a commanding height. From his position, it was easier to spot the enemies ambushing in the distance.

At this moment, the small square in front of the church has become a mess.

The residents of the small town fled in all directions, and the mayor folded his head on the ground and shivered, praying loudly to God.On the contrary, Floren stood in front of Richelieu fearlessly, opened his arms, and protected the cardinal.

Roland quickly stood up, grabbed the mayor from the ground with his left hand, clasped his right hand, took Richelieu's arm, and called Floren: "Go, go to the church!"

Both Heathcliff and Andre's plans revolved around the church in Sweetwater.The church is the only entirely stone building in town, with strong vaults and gates cast in bronze.

At this moment, Roland confirmed that the enemy hadn't approached yet, so he led people into the church first.

She was a woman, and she didn't know where the strength came from, but she dragged two men and rushed towards the church.

The mayor cried and shouted, rolled and crawled.

On the contrary, it was Richelieu who followed her silently, obediently letting Roland hold his arm, and walked lightly, which did not quite match his pale and sick appearance.

In an instant, four people (Floren followed closely behind the three of them) rushed into the church.The priest of the church immediately ordered his priests to join him in closing the bronze door of the church.Roland told him not to fasten the door completely, but only halfway.

Then Roland and Floren rushed to the spiral staircase behind the altar, and from there went straight to the church bell tower—there is the highest point of the whole town, looking out from under the copper bell that rings every hour on the hour, you can have a bird's-eye view of the whole Square in front of the church.

Roland climbed up the bell tower first, and footsteps sounded behind him, but it was not Florent who appeared from the spiral steps, but Cardinal Richelieu.

Roland looked suspiciously at him.

The cardinal, more courageous and quicker than she imagined.

Li Sheliu still did not forget to "show off", clenched his handkerchief with his right hand and fisted his mouth, coughed twice before asking softly, "How is the situation?"

Roland could no longer care about doubts, and hurriedly fell under the copper bell, overlooking the situation in the town.

The inhabitants of the town have almost fled.Every family closed their doors, and they should be transferring valuables to the cellar at this moment.

Roland clearly remembered the direction Andre's flintlock was pointing at, and immediately looked in that direction, and sure enough, he saw a man in the uniform of a palace guard, holding a flintlock, lying on the ground at the moment. In a pool of blood.

Obviously, Andre acted first and avoided an assassination disaster.

Soon, the deceased's flintlock gun was snatched away by his companions, and more than a dozen palace guards were approaching the church collectively with weapons in hand.

At the entrance of the church, within a very short period of time, a bunker fortification miraculously appeared.

Heathcliff led the earl's knights to build it in the shortest possible time, using sacks filled with soil.

The method of building fortifications should have been practiced by Heathcliff and others in advance.Some of them were responsible for transporting, and some were responsible for stacking. In a very short period of time, they moved all the soil bags that had been piled up outside the church door and piled them up outside the church door.

In the process, two more shots were fired from Prince Andrew's window, knocking down two palace guards.It's just that the process of filling and bolting the flintlock is very complicated. He has only one person and one gun, and the speed is very slow, so he can only occasionally fire the gun.

Even so, enough time was bought for Heathcliff to erect a small fortification at the church door.Heathcliff and the knights had summoned all members of the cardinal's guard to the fortifications, and there were enough sandbags to provide them with defense.

On the contrary, the palace guards faced the defenders' fire without any hindrance.

"No problem!" Roland said confidently.

"That's not necessarily the case." Richelieu said leisurely.

Roland was stunned for a moment—she saw dozens of strong men in civilian clothes pouring in from the other direction of the town.

"Bandits?" Roland asked involuntarily.

Why did the robber join forces with the palace guards?

"Perhaps you can collectively call them—assassins." The bishop shrugged. He was still holding the big orange in his arms. At this moment, he poked his head out of his robe and let out a meow.

The next moment, the people on the top of the clock tower saw that the "robbers" and the palace guards merged into one team, and even began to share the weapons they carried: flintlock guns, bows and arrows, spears...all for long-distance attacks weapons.

The leading assassins began to fill the pills and bolts, but the target did not aim at the gate of the church, but at the residence of Prince Andrew.

"boom--"

The flintlock hit the next door, the house of Onegin, which was more than a little off.

Roland immediately remembered: In this era, flintlock guns are not weapons that everyone can master.

Looks like Andre got lucky and took out the opponent's best fire~gunner as soon as he came up.

I just don't know if Onegin is okay.

Roland thought for a while, and saw Onegin coming out of his two-story building, wearing a dressing gown and a cute nightcap, cursing.

As soon as this guy appeared, he glanced at the situation outside the door, and immediately praised "Good guy!", turned around quickly, picked up his long sword, and ran towards the door of the church before he even had time to change his clothes—it seemed The "superfluous people" were not angry that their "new home" was hit, and immediately joined Heathcliff and the others, ready to fight back at any time.

At this moment, Prince Andre also leaned out of his window, aimed at an assassin holding a musket, and hit the opponent with a "bang" shot.

Andre's aim is much better than his opponent.

The other party knew how powerful it was, and immediately changed the attacking weapon against Andre.Arrowheads tied with cotton wool soaked in oil, lit rockets, shot at Prince Andrew's house one after another.The arrows were nailed to the wall and burned blazingly.

The "new-style" houses in Tianshui Town have already considered the issue of fire prevention during construction: all stone materials are used near the stove, and a thick layer of non-flammable plaster is coated on the outside of the wooden board wall to prevent fire. Er.

Although Prince Andrew's house was hit by multiple rockets at this moment, the flames had not spread for a while.

Seeing Andre poking his head out of the window to look around, he stretched out his hand to pull a lanyard.

Suddenly, there was a "boom", two water tanks were opened on the top of the house, which were placed on both ends of the beams, and the water in the water tanks poured down along the gutters and onto the walls around the house.Those blazing rockets went out immediately.

This is the ultimate weapon for fire prevention in the new residence in Tianshui Town, and it is also the source of water for Andre and others' daily life.Usually, people pump water into the water tank on the roof. In an emergency, you only need to pull the lanyard, and the water tank will be fully opened, and the water inside will be poured out immediately, and all of it will be used to put out the fire.

But this method can only be used once.After the water tank is poured out, it cannot be refilled in a short time.

Prince Andrei immediately slipped out the back door of the house with his flintlock in his arms, and joined Heathcliff's escort at the church door in a moment.

The guards were blessed with hot weapons and covered by bunkers, and they immediately had the upper hand.

Most of the long arrows of the assassins hit the sandbags, and the knights could use them after taking them off.The assassins fired with flintlock guns, but the guns all hit the bronze door of the church with a "boom boom".

Seeing the assassins being knocked down one after another, and the sound of the flintlock guns becoming more and more sparse, Heathcliff immediately judged that it was time for them to attack.

So, Heathcliff gave an order, and he was the first to lean out from behind the bunker, raised the long sword in his hand, and ordered loudly: "Come on guys, defend what we must defend!"

With an order, the knights around Heathcliff, together with the cardinal's guards, jumped out of the bunker one after another, raised their long swords high, and rushed towards the few "assassins" in the center of Tianshui Town.

Heathcliff looked at the knights he had trained by himself. They didn't have any stage fright when facing the enemy, and they were very organized in defense and offense. Suddenly, a sense of pride was born.

Unexpectedly, at this moment, a gun roared, and with a "boom", it pierced a hole in Heathcliff's chest.

There was a scream, and it was Onegin who had been squatting behind the bunker earlier.

Onegin, who was still wearing a cute nightcap, rushed forward and hugged Heathcliff who was sighing upwards.Several manor knights taught by Heathcliff also surrounded him.

"How are you, man?" Onegin asked eagerly.

Heathcliff put his hands to his chest, and was speechless in pain.

"Listen to me, when it comes to getting injured, the criteria for judging it are very simple - if you are slightly injured, you can't get off the line of fire, and if you are seriously injured, get off the line as soon as possible!"

If you are slightly injured, you can't get off the line of fire, but if you are seriously injured, get off the line immediately?

Heathcliff rolled his eyes, looked at the "extra person" Onegin beside him, and suddenly remembered that this guy had been injured when he was provocative in the manor before, and he was the one who had the most ability to "injury" among these "outsiders". experienced.

After the audience enters the plane, the pain is halved. If the minor injury can be tolerated, the online injury can slowly recover.If you are seriously injured, or even physically disabled, the only "treatment" you need is to go offline, and the injury will heal naturally when you go back online.

Heathcliff was a little flustered because he was seriously injured, but when he heard Onegin's concise judgment principles, he immediately became that middle-aged man with stable emotions again.

He raised his eyes and said to Onegin, "Brother, thanks for the reminder."

Immediately afterwards, Heathcliff closed his eyes on the spot in front of his companions.Under the gaze of more than a dozen pairs of eyes, his body began to gradually become transparent, and finally disappeared completely, disappearing into the morning sunlight in front of the church.
