Chapter 35 Invasion of the Duchy of Constantine

"Is the Principality of Standing in front of you?" Sharon asked with narrowed eyes looking at the coastline in the distance.

"Yes, Mr. Sharon, you can reach Earl Dole's territory by going ashore not far ahead." Standing beside him was a middle-aged man with a kind face and a slightly fat body, and he replied respectfully. .

"It's a pity that it is no longer his territory." Sharon said coldly.

"Yes, yes, Earl Dole is still imprisoned in the prison of the Principality of Standing, and his private territory has long been taken back by the Congress of the Principality of Standing." The middle-aged man immediately laughed.

Sharon took a sharp turn, and asked again: "I heard that the private territories of all the nobles in the Principality of Standing have been taken back by the Congress?"

A hint of embarrassment flashed across the middle-aged man's face: "Yes, it was all taken back last year. So the place in front is said to be the territory of Earl Dole, but in fact it is only the territory he owned before."

"Why do you agree?" Sharon continued to ask curiously. "Count Andre, private land is more important than life to the nobles. As a result, the Congress of the Principality of Standing took back your land, and you actually agreed?"

The middle-aged man named Earl Andre smiled wryly and sighed: "What can we do if we don't agree? This is enforced by that guy Xu Yi. If we don't agree, the guards of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce must be waiting for us." .”

Hearing Earl Andre mentioning the guards of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, Sharon's expression became a little more serious. After pondering for a moment, he asked in a deep voice, "Is the guards of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce very strong?"

Count Andrey suddenly trembled slightly. There was a trace of fear in his eyes. Nodding vigorously, he said: "Very strong. Really strong! Lord Sharon. Please forgive me, although these subordinates you brought are all elite, but...if you are facing the guards of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, please be sure to Be careful."

Sharon frowned slightly, turned his head, and looked at the subordinates who had gathered on the deck and were on standby, feeling a little uncertain in his heart.

Although before departure. He has collected a lot of information about the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, but there is not much information he can obtain, and even less information describes the escort of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce.

The only thing that can reflect the combat effectiveness of the guards of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce is their few shots against some nobles in the Duchy of Standing.

Due to insufficient information, Sharon didn't know the details of these attacks.

Judging from the results, the private guards of the nobles of the Principality of Standing had no power to resist the guards of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, and finally the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce had the absolute right to speak in the Principality of Standing.

But in Sharon's view, this result doesn't show much.

Because in Sharon's eyes, the nobles of the Principality of Standing were just a group of country rich landowners, and the so-called personal guards under him were probably just a group of guys who were not much better than ordinary people, not only had no training at all. I am afraid that even the basic equipment is not complete, so there is no combat power to speak of.

So infer from this aspect. The guards of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce crushed the nobles of the Principality of Standing, and they did not show any combat effectiveness at all. It only showed that they could still be regarded as a relatively regular team.

After thinking for a while, Sharon shook his head.

"Forget it, no matter how strong it is, it's just the guard of a small chamber of commerce. How strong can it be?"

Although Sharon still maintained a cautious attitude in front of the Duke of Windsor and advised the Duke of Windsor to pay more attention to the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, but in his heart, he did not really take the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce seriously.

In the final analysis, the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce is just a small chamber of commerce in a small principality like the Principality of Standing, so how can it be as powerful as the subordinates of the governor of the southern province of the Candela Empire.

Sharon looked at the private guards of the Duke of Windsor who were wearing bright armor and holding sharp weapons on the deck, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

This time, the Duke can send a total of 3,000 of the most elite men to bring him here. Under his command, not to mention the small Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, even the entire Duchy of Standing can be easily captured. .

More importantly, he can be sure that the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce does not dare to really fight him.

In the case of Earl Dole before, although the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce took action, it did not kill any of the subordinates brought by the Duchess from the beginning to the end, which already shows that the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce must have considerable scruples in its heart.

"Hey, seeing that I brought so many elites here this time, if Chairman Xu of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce is smart enough, he should know that his only choice is to be obedient."

Ten sea ships carried Sharon and 3,000 elite men of the Duke of Windsor, and they gradually approached the coast along with the sea breeze.

This is a small port under the control of Earl Andre, and its location is very remote. The arrival of these ten ships did not attract any attention.

Sharon and the 3,000 elite men he brought got off the ship and immediately headed deep into the shore.

According to the plan, he planned to enter Earl Dole's private estate with these 3,000 elite subordinates first, settle down temporarily after occupying it, and then slowly negotiate with the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce.

However, just as the group walked out of the cliff where the port was located, they ran into a team of about 300 people head-on.

Looking at the group of guys who looked like soldiers in front of them, but were only wearing simple armor and holding all kinds of strange things in their hands, Sharon raised his eyebrows at Count Andre beside him, and asked, "What are these guys?" Who is the guy?"

Earl Andre's expression was a little nervous, and he replied in a low voice: "They are subordinates of a nearby nobleman. It's really strange, why did they come here today? Could it be that they have received some news?"

"It's not the guard of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce..." Sharon seemed a little disappointed, then turned his head and nodded to the captain of the guard beside him. "Kill them all, don't let one go."

Hearing Sharon's order, Count Andre was taken aback.

"Lord Sharon, you..."

Before he could say a word, the captain of the guard standing beside Sharon waved his hand and made an attack gesture.

This time Sharon brought all the elite subordinates of the Duke of Windsor. Usually well-trained. After receiving the order. In an instant, five hundred people raised their bows and arrows, and a moment later, a rain of arrows flew towards the three hundred people on the opposite side.

The people on the opposite side were looking at the sudden appearance of a large group of people curiously and suspiciously, but they were shocked when they saw countless arrows flying towards them.

Caught off guard, the arrows rained down one after another.

"Ding ding ding ding—"

Countless arrows mercilessly hit the seemingly extremely thin and simple armor on the three hundred people, making crisp sounds.

"Hmph, a bunch of rabble." Sharon curled his lips in disdain.

But the next moment. The sneer on his mouth froze instantly.

Although the rain of arrows covered the 300 people unsurprisingly, none of them slipped through the net, but after the rain of arrows fell, all the arrows hit the armor of those people, but did not bring even the slightest casualty!

Seeing the 300 or so people standing on the opposite side, Sharon's eyes widened and he couldn't believe his own eyes.

The armor on the guys on the opposite side looked so thin, how could it be possible that they were unscathed by the sharp bows and arrows of these elites brought by him?

Turning his head to look at the captain of the guard, he found that he was also shocked, apparently also disbelieving the reality he saw in front of him.

But the three hundred or so people on the opposite side were stunned by the sudden attack. Respond quickly.

"Damn, brothers. They want to kill us, fight them!" A roar rang out among the three hundred or so people.

Hearing this, Sharon snorted coldly, thinking that although the armor on you guys is a bit strange, with only three hundred people, how dare you come to fight with my three thousand elite subordinates?

It's just life and death!

"Ike, kill them, don't show mercy." Sharon ordered in a deep voice to the captain of the guard beside him.

"Yes, my lord."

The captain of the guard, Ike, was just about to raise his hand to give an attack order, when he saw the more than 300 people on the opposite side raised the strange things they held in their hands and aimed at this side.

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh—"

Countless sounds of piercing through the air suddenly sounded, and the row of the Duke of Windsor's private guards at the front of the line fell down instantly without even wailing.

The first row fell, followed by the second row, the third row...

As if harvesting straw, the guard phalanx, which was originally a perfect formation, suddenly had a huge gap because hundreds of people fell down.

Seeing this situation, Sharon gasped.

The group of guys on the opposite side moved in a mess, and they didn't look like rigorously trained elites. However, they were able to burst out such a powerful fighting power in an instant while holding the weird thing in their hands.

"Could this be a military magic machine?" Sharon asked Count Andre beside him.

Count Andre's face was extremely ugly, and he slowly shook his head and said, "No, this is just a magic crossbow, not a real military magic machine..."

"That's not enough? Wouldn't the real military magic machinery be more powerful?" Sharon was startled, and then turned his head to look, and saw that the subordinates he brought had added hundreds of casualties by talking here.

Although Captain Ike really wanted to organize a counterattack, although the opponent only had more than 300 people, the arrows released were extremely dense, and they were suppressed so that there was no room for them.

Fortunately, what Sharon brought this time was the elite of the Duke of Windsor's subordinates. After a moment of panic, they each found a cover and managed to sustain the attack.

Count Andre and Sharon hid behind a big rock. After looking out, they said to Sharon in a deep voice, "Lord Sharon, I suggest that you lead them to retreat immediately. It is best to return to the Kandela Empire now."

Sharon frowned, and really wanted to say that I have a full 3,000 subordinates on my side, and there are only about 300 people on the other side, so why should I retreat.

But the fact in front of him was that the attack power of the other party's 300 people was stronger than his 3000 subordinates, and they were so suppressed that they were powerless to fight back.

But in any case, it is absolutely impossible to choose to retreat now.

Sharon gestured to Captain Ike, telling him to wait for the opponent's offensive to be suspended before launching a counterattack immediately.

Ike nodded in understanding.

Then Sharon turned his head and continued to ask Count Andre: "Count Andre, you said that this is not a real military magic machine, so tell me, is the power of a real military magic machine even more amazing?"

"That's right. A real military magical machine is far more powerful than you imagine..."

"boom--"

The boulder on which the two were leaning against suddenly exploded, and the two hiding behind couldn't react at all. They were hit hard by the crushed stones all over the sky, and they fainted instantly. (To be continued..)
