Volume 1: Raging Waves City Chapter 111: Attack the City
As Pisco rammed the gate, the roar sounded at the same time.
Thirty smoothbore cannons were brought from the ships and lined up in a row. Fireworks were emitted, the gun bodies jumped, and black projectiles streaked across the sky and shot towards several gun positions on the wall.
After the fall, gravel flew everywhere and screams continued.
The mechanicals pushed the anti-artillery wall forward, while the Nagas and the Imperial spies drew their swords and pressed forward along the front line.
The war machines stretched out their legs and rushed forward from both wings, attracting the defenders' firepower for the main attack in the middle.
The defenders' counterattacks were very sparse.
Only two of the cannons on the turret were firing, and the crossbows and muskets on the wall were also firing sporadically.
Even if a few diehard supervisors said that the Secret Service outside was an imposter, it still couldn't save the chaotic morale of the army.
Pirates rob at sea, what do they need so many war machines for land warfare?
And the mechanical tribe, their gathering area is in the Raging Waves City. Pretending to be the Secret Intelligence Bureau, aren't they afraid that the Secret Intelligence Bureau will raid their homes!
Although being a private soldier means selling your life for money, what is the use of money if you lose your life?
The overseers offered high rewards, but the counterattacks on the city walls became increasingly powerless.
The turret was destroyed in silence by concentrated artillery fire.
The war machines that arrived helped Pisco break open the city gate and rushed in together.
The Mechanic, Naga and Imperial spies charged at full speed, hundreds of them entered the fortress and quickly occupied important positions.
The defenders of the Fire Crystal Mine surrendered!
The success of the war was beyond Luke's imagination, and his side occupied the entire mine with almost no losses.
This should be attributed to the suddenness of the attack. The defenders were not prepared at all. Facing the attack of the empire's regular violent agencies, it was difficult to generate the determination to fight to the death without mobilization.
After figuring out the key points, Luke couldn't help but have bolder ideas.
He did not enter the Fire Crystal Mine, but left a group of imperial spies here to guard the prisoners. He reorganized the main force and quickly marched along the mining railway to another nearby mine.
Two hours later, another mine was captured.
continue……
In this way, Luke led the team he had assembled, under the banner of the Imperial Secret Service, and pushed forward along the Kama Mountain Mine Railway from east to west. Wherever they passed, the guards of the mines surrendered, and no one dared to fight head-on with the ferocious Imperial spies.
Luke was making rapid progress in the mining area, and the news soon spread back to Raging Tide City.
The entire city hall was shaken.
The crisis caused by the collapse of the Thunder Tower has been settled, but before the officials could breathe a sigh of relief, another big incident occurred in the northern mining area!
Inspector Meteorite of the Cape
What does he want to do!
Is he going to rebel?
Congressman Virgil immediately mobilized the sheriffs to form an army to go to the northern mining area, and at the same time invited the navy to send out marines to jointly rescue the mines occupied by the Cape District Secret Intelligence Bureau.
It was already evening when Congressman Virgil led his troops to the northern mining area.
At this time, Luke led his troops to attack the railway station in the mining area in the north of Nutao City.
In one day, they captured seven mines and the stations leading in and out of the mining area.
The spies of the Secret Intelligence Bureau in the Cape District requisitioned the train station, stopped the trains carrying ore, and used all the carriages to transport miners, supervisors .
Hundreds of imperial spies controlled tens of thousands of mine workers with lightning speed and transferred them to the train station in batches.
Senator Virgil entered the train station under the protection of the sheriff and the marines. In an open area, under the light, there were dark heads.
All the miners who were transported to the mine were ordered to sit on the ground and divided into several areas according to their different duties. Dozens of war machines driven by imperial spies stood in the middle of the crowd, and the long swords held by the mechanical arms reflected the cold light.
A train pulled into the station, and the newly arrived miners were driven off the train. Then, under the command of the Imperial spies, they walked to the area corresponding to their positions... and squatted down.
Everyone had a look of confusion on their faces.
Don’t know what happened?
Honest cooperation is probably their only choice.
"Meteor!" Senator Virgil saw Luke sitting on the platform seat and immediately rushed over in anger: "What are you doing! You attacked the mining area and cut off the railway. Do you know how much damage your actions have caused to the City of Raging Tide?
You...you are committing treason!"
Luke snorted and laughed, "Virgil, you have been causing trouble for me time and time again. Are you dissatisfied with the Imperial Secret Service? As the head of the security department of Fury City, you came here and did not ask about the case first and actively assist the Secret Service in handling the case, but instead slandered a loyal senior Imperial agent for treason.
Is there something wrong with your stance? Or are you planning to shield the criminals?"
Luke's question made Virgil lose his initial momentum.
He realized that he had been so angry at Ibul and Meteorite for the past few days that he lost his mind. The current situation showed that the Cape District Secret Intelligence Bureau was well prepared, and he could not fall into their trap.
"Then please explain your actions! Major Malken of the Marine Corps is here, and you should not slander an upright nobleman casually."
Major Malken saluted Luke and said, "Inspector Meteorite... The Raging Fleet has the duty to protect the safety and stability of Raging City. Your attack in the northern mining area has indeed endangered the normal order of the city."
Luke stood up and nodded back to the Major.
"I am trying the case right now. You will know what is going on if you listen in. I hope the Marines can help me maintain order here. I have too few people and I am afraid I will not be able to suppress the possible riots."
"I am willing to serve you."
The major ordered the marines he brought with him to assist the Imperial spies in maintaining order, and the pressure on the Imperial spies was immediately reduced a lot.
Luke walked over to the microphone that was set up.
"I'm Inspector Meteorite of the Cape District Secret Service. I asked you to come here so late because I want you to cooperate with us in handling some cases.
Please come to the front if your name is called."
After finishing speaking, Luke nodded to Kylena beside him.
There was also a microphone in front of Kylena. She held a document and read the names on it: "Lawson Fire Crystal Mine, Hazlitt Walker, Wycliffe Ulysses..."
The five people whose names were called stepped forward.
"Inspector, we are all law-abiding citizens of the Empire. We are hired workers for Mr. Lawson..."
Luke ignored them and said to Kylena, “Go on!”
Kalina read aloud Agent Thomas's investigation report on the illegal human trafficking, illegal use of slave labor, and the torture and death of slave labor at the Lawson Fire Crystal Mine.
It contains the entire investigation process of the disappearance of the Hillm brothers.
Hilm's brother was brought out to testify.
"The disappearance of the Shilm brothers was the first case that Inspector Meteorite took over when he took office at the Cape District Secret Intelligence Bureau. The inspector said... we will investigate the case thoroughly and all those involved will be punished accordingly.
Inspector Meteorite, please pronounce the verdict on the five principal offenders in this case."
The whole place was silent, and everyone looked at Luke.
"kill!"
