In the Middle Ages, people drew cards to be promoted to nobility. - Chapter 752

The confrontation at sea continued, with the French fleur-de-lis, the Spanish burgundy cross, and the British Union flag fluttering in the wind, and naval guns aimed at each other.

But it does not affect the expeditionary forces who have landed in the port to continue their mission.

They dispersed several reconnaissance teams and dispersed into the city.

Each team is led by a King’s Blade and five armored infantrymen, followed by dozens of musketeers in tan uniforms, checking the streets for enemy ambush.

The dark alley seems to hide a monster that can swallow everything.

Lieutenant Colonel Scott, who watched these scouts walk in, felt an ominous premonition in his heart.

But soon, his attention was no longer on these scouts.

He shouted loudly: “Don’t be stunned. Everyone immediately set up the coastal defense position, pulled out the artillery, and pointed it at those damn French guys! Send a few more people to take a look at those antique coastal defenses of the Texans. Is the gun still there?”

Two British soldiers walked into a relatively luxurious mansion.

“There is no one in this house. The owner left in a hurry. They left this behind!”

The man happily picked up a few silver coins scattered on the ground, stuffed them into his pocket, and took some time to look at the photo of a family of three hanging on the wall.

“Tsk, the owner’s wife is quite pretty.”

The companions opened the drawers in the house one by one, trying to find some leftover belongings: “They say Texas is a devil’s cave, but according to me, it is not much different from a small rural town in the country. We are going to be in this city tonight.” Stayed here for the night?”

“Otherwise, having a ready-made house is better than setting up a tent in the wilderness. I heard that mosquitoes in Texas can kill people. Ms. Nightingale’s medical team did not come with us this time.”

Outside the mansion, the King’s Blade, who was waiting silently like a machine, suddenly looked in the direction of the tower in the distance, and his eyes glowed red under his helmet.

The next moment, the gun barrel behind him immediately turned and aimed. Along with the red light that was gathering momentum, the air was suddenly filled with the pungent smell of white crystal.

A group of armored infantry immediately followed and attacked.

On the tower, the faces of the wolf scout team changed drastically.

“Damn it, can you see us from so far away?”

“Jump!”

At the critical moment of life and death, the soldiers of the Texas Reconnaissance Team dispersed from the tower. Almost at the same time, the horrific explosion and shock wave threw the fleeing team members into the air like a ball.

The explosion immediately alerted the lax British soldiers.

“There are enemies!”

“I know I can’t trust the intelligence from those colonial guys, so please be more alert!”

At this time, in the very center of New Naples.

On the top of the municipal building, Lothar and his party were standing on the roof, looking at the British soldiers walking in the dark streets with dots of red light in the distance.

In the middle school textbook, Lothar remembered the First World War. The fundamental reason for its outbreak was the uneven distribution of spoils among the imperialist powers.

Texas is now their spoils to divide.

However, risks and opportunities are always equal. Once Texas defeats the British Expeditionary Force and achieves a great victory, even if the French want to bring Texas into their sphere of influence in the future, the most they can do is put Texas under A protectorate that prefers cooperation rather than completely becoming its puppet, vassal, or colony.

On the contrary, without such a record, even if Texas contacted the French in advance, it would just attract another jackal.

On the roof, Veneto was a little eager to try.

“I’m going to weigh in on the British guy.”

Veneto actually didn’t have any objections to British people. After all, he was a country bumpkin and had never even seen British people.

But now the hatred value of the British in his mind is even higher than that of the Yaxian wolves.

This battle record shows that he was the most attentive, although due to his limited strength, which was only at the level of an elite centurion, it was difficult for him to play a role in large-scale wars.

“Hans come with you. Bringing another wolf team can be considered as taking care of you.”

Naturally, Texas would not be completely unprepared for the enemy’s landing.

It’s just that the combat information is kept confidential. There is no doubt that there are traitors in Texas. After all, it is a country of immigrants. It is not normal to not have traitors. However, the leakage of top-secret information such as the white crystal mine can only mean that there is a traitor within the wolf clan. .

Although Giuliano decided to take an idealistic path, his style was still quite pragmatic. The only person who could have access to top-secret things like white crystals was the wolf clan, and the original wolf clan of Basilicata.

“Viviana, please stop fighting.”

The Candle Knight was a little confused: “Why?”

“Your identity is too sensitive.”

Viviana felt a warmth in her heart, but she shook her head and said: “At this night, I will not let the enemy see my face clearly.”

Now that I have joined the giant ship of yesterday, I cannot do without fulfilling my responsibilities.

What’s more, hoeing the strong and supporting the weak is what a knight should do.

“In this case, let’s work in pairs and start taking action. Viviana, let’s go together.”

Lothar finally made the decision and leaped from the roof. In an instant, he poured his mental power into his agility. Like a ghostly figure, his footsteps landed lightly on the ground, silently.

Arthur was also leading a team to scout the situation in the city, but he was in a much worse mood. He was the highest commander of the state militia, and he could talk and laugh with the captain of the Knights of St. George. But in front of those local guys, even a small lieutenant dared to yell at him and order him.

It was a great shame.

It was all the fault of those damn slaves!

If it weren’t for the uprising of black slaves, the entire Louisiana state would be destroyed. After a round of massacres, exiles, and capture, the already sparse population would have been almost gone.

According to convention, the state militia under his command should be expanded to at least 10,000 people in wartime, which would barely be worthy of his title of colonel.

But now, everything is ruined.

With only 300 militiamen under his command, he couldn’t be tough in front of those local officers.

He originally planned to use this battle to gild himself and use it as a springboard to enter the local development.

The militiamen were wandering around in a casual manner, and their mood was also quite bad.

“There are too many bad things in this war. Now I regret why I didn’t go to California with my cousin’s family. Even if I went to mine, it would be better than carrying a gun to the battlefield.”

“Maybe it won’t be our turn. You have seen the equipment of those local guys. Such a big steel behemoth. No matter how scary the werewolf is, it is still flesh and blood.”

A state militiaman who was born as a cowboy smiled and said: “The land in Texas is still very fertile. When the war is over, we will each get a manor, buy some black slaves, and raise good breeds, so that we can become manor owners.”

“Then you have to make more contributions. After such a commotion, the price of black slaves has risen again. A lot of them, those Portuguese merchants are so happy. “

The militiaman on the side widened his eyes: “The black slaves have risen up to bite their masters, shouldn’t the price fall?”

“That’s true, but the plantation cannot do without the labor of black slaves. Those Mexicans are cunning and lazy, and they can’t compare with those black slaves trained by the Portuguese.”

“I heard that a new machine for harvesting cotton has been developed in the territory of the Yankees, right?”

“That thing is too expensive, and the quality of the cotton produced is also poor, and cotton merchants don’t buy it at all.”

The state militia chatted casually, and the work at hand was extremely perfunctory.

Who made those damn British guys so arrogant? Anyway, they don’t have any magic props that can detect dark creatures. Even if there are omissions, it’s not their fault, right?

I didn’t notice that in the dark alley in front of me, a pair of green eyes were staring at the group of red-clad soldiers in eye-catching clothes.
