Queen and Her Duke

Chapter 58

The northern edge of Wenlin's territory is bordered by a barren swamp.

According to Wen Lin's order a few days ago, Brown ordered someone to build a temporary log cabin in the jungle on the edge of the moor.

Looking from the outside, there is no trace of it, and it is extremely hidden.

Wen Lin tied the horse outside the house, bent over and walked in.

There was a brazier in the middle of the room, and various tools and materials prepared according to Wen Lin's requirements were stacked in the corner.

Roughly according to the ratio of sulfur, dinitrogen, and carbon, Wen Lin divided them into unequal parts of the fire. The medicine bag was tightly sealed into a square shape.

Next is the sound of fire.

Wen Lin fry the smallest portion first. The medicine bag was thrown into the swamp with great force, and a burst of fire and white mist rose from a distance, and then there was no movement.

I threw a few more in succession, except that the fire and white fog were bigger, but none of them exploded.

Wen Lin poured out the saltpeter and sulfur, twisted it open, and looked carefully. There were a lot of impurities, and the particles were not fine enough.

Sulfur can be evaporated and purified, but saltpeter cannot be purified. Wen Lin patiently grinds the particles into a finer powder, according to the previous fire with the greatest fire. The ratio of the medicine pack makes an extra-large fire. medicine pack.

It was lit and thrown out, and a small plume of white smoke slowly floated up. Apart from that, there was no other movement.

Wen Lin was puzzled, she tapped her feet, Wen Lin stepped on the dead branches and fell on the fire. Next to the medicine bag, I want to pick it up and try to adjust the proportions.

Who knows, suddenly there was a loud noise.

Wen Lin was instantly pulled back by the air wave for a long distance.

Good thing fire. There were no fragments, no granulation or compression in the medicine bag, and Wen Lin's retreat was very timely, except for a while of tinnitus, no other damage was caused.

Wen Lin looked at it with concentration. After the white fog dissipated, she saw a hole about three meters wide and one meter deep in the swamp.

Limited by the lack of purity, the power is still too small.

The spire at the top of the church was thin and long, and Wen Lin thought about making a bigger fire. The medicine bag, the movement of blowing up the spire to bluff people, should still be enough.

It's time to tell Pete about the lightning rod. She is the best blacksmith Wen Lin has ever seen, even Pete can make a precise twelve-shot repeating crossbow.

The smoothbore ** has now appeared, but it is still in its infancy, and often after firing a round, it has to stop and change the ammunition.

It is more used by the nobles as a status symbol, and it is still better to use it in actual combat.

Thinking like this, Wen Lin returned to Yinhe Village.

After initially solving the gunpowder issue, Wen Lin immediately began to think about going to sea.

The situation at sea is complicated and changeable. According to Vicia, the number of ships that the Holy See visited Golan this time will not be less than twenty.

Vicia's original intention was to let Wen Lin avoid them.

However, pirates have always been good at winning more with less, and they have a disadvantage in numbers, so they have to rely on careful planning and unexpected attacks to make up for it, and Wen Lin is good at this.

Calling Elbo and his party over, Wen Lin led them to the Liberty, discussing the next action plan with them as they walked.

The reef-covered sea is known as the "Wreck,"

As the literal meaning is, whether it is a merchant ship, a warship, or a pirate ship, after entering this sea by mistake or being forced to enter this sea area, there is a great chance that it will hit the rocks and sink to the bottom, and there are broken ship wrecks floating in this sea area all year round .

Many fleets keep it away, but for Wen Lin, it's an excellent escape.

With Liberty's leading speed, Wen Lin escaped from the siege of the Sistine naval fleet many times.

For a while, other pirates followed suit, but they were not as lucky as Wen Lin, and only a few of them were able to sail out of this sea smoothly.

When he heard that he was going to sea again, Pete was especially excited. He waved his cane, "Oh, guys, we're going to start fighting on the shoulder of the well at sea again."

Someone laughed at him, "Pete, you never stepped on the springboard, the guy who hides in the dark and shoots a gun,"

Pirates have an ancient tradition. When fighting, they throw spears and launch rockets first. When the two ships meet, they put a springboard on the bow of the ship, and then use swords and tomahawks to make close cuts in turn. 【1】

Wen Lin never abides by their rules, she likes to use crossbows and small paddle boats.

Often when others were focusing on fighting, Wen Lin had quietly sneaked into their ship and captured their captain.

The so-called catch the thief first catch the king, with the least effort in exchange for the greatest profit.

The Liberty had a bad reputation at sea, insidious, cunning, rampant and vicious.

But pirates often speak of it with hatred and awe.

After all, a pirate ship that can turn the multi-national fleet around, to a certain extent, also gave them a bad breath.

Everyone on the Liberty has developed a full tacit understanding in the battle.

Just as Wen Lin mentioned it, they could understand Wen Lin's intentions.

After a quick discussion, Wen Lin made a preliminary plan.

At the end, Wen Lin mentioned that Eggers and the 100 selected Wang Tingqi would go with them.

"Captain Wen Lin, are you sure they won't hold us back?"

After all, when they were at sea, they had learned that the Golan's navy was weak. Not only were the ships cumbersome, but the navy on board was even worse. Whenever the weather was a little worse, they all huddled in the port and didn't dare to go out to sea.

With a helpless smile, Wen Lin joked, "Are you on the same boat, are you scared?"

"Of course not," a voice immediately retorted.

With a faint smile, Wen Lin then said sternly, "Gentlemen, they are also my subordinates. You will fight together at sea, you must believe in me, and you must also believe in them,"

Ridiculously ridiculed, when it comes to business, everyone nodded.

For two consecutive days, Eggers took the royal knights alone to train under the cliff, until the evening of the last day, when everyone gathered on the Liberty.

Taking advantage of the night, the Liberty quietly sailed out of the River Thame and entered the Strait of Dover.

According to Wen Lin's request, everyone changed into loose dark clothes, weapons without any markings, and a few torches hanging by the railings. At first glance, there were black heads.

After it was determined to be far away from the coast, several altitudes instantly lit up.

Wen Lin stood on the wine barrel at the bow and said loudly, "Fighters, tomorrow you will have a hearty battle, the rum is ready, and I will stay up all night tonight,"

It is rare to see Wen Linru's emotional state, and Eggers, who still doesn't know the situation, has a question and answer with Wen Lin.

"Your Excellency Wen Lin, what are we going to do when we go to sea?"

"The robbery, no, should be said to be a friendly exchange with other ships,"

"with who,"

"Certainly the richest vessel to pay tribute to the Holy See,"

"..."

Everyone looked at each other, only to feel that they were on the pirate ship.

Everyone knows that the Sistine's navy is the most powerful. They often send fleets to protect the tribute ships. Generally, pirates will only avoid them when they see them.

Eggers could no longer maintain his ruthless expression, and said sadly, "Your Excellency, we are regular Golan royal cavalry,"

Smiling indifferently, Wen Lin said calmly, "What about the cavalry, victory must belong to us,"

Everyone: "..."

Wen Lin didn't care about the resentment that came through from everyone, and began to talk about the battle arrangements in detail.

Gradually, the discussion became quieter, except for the surging waves in her ears, there was only Wen Lin's calm voice.

She stood in the crowd, and the meager light seemed to cover her, making people unable to take their eyes off her.

The knights who can enter the Royal Knights have in-depth research on military tactics.

Following Wen Lin's description, they faintly became excited.

Why would anyone come up with such a sinister and shameless play?

While saying shameless, they also secretly wondered. According to Wen Lin's arrangement, there were several key points that required her to take risks.

It should be Your Excellency the Guard who is sitting at the back, but he wants to be at the forefront of the battle.

When the knights faced Wen Lin again, their mood became very delicate.

She is like a fog, there are no rules to restrain her, and it is never clear which one is the real her.

But always at the most critical moment, it exudes an involuntarily convincing charm.

Even Eggers has to admit that if it is replaced by someone else, even if it is replaced by himself, he cannot easily persuade them.

A gaze hidden in the crowd was gentle and condensed, she looked at Wen Lin from a distance, and a smile flashed in her eyes.

Such a Wen Lin, like the wind at sea, is free and unrestrained, shining with a dazzling brilliance.

Vicia's eyes were too focused, and after arranging follow-up matters, Wen Lin looked precisely in Vicia's direction.

The eyes of the two met unexpectedly in the trembling firelight.

Vicia's smile became splendid in an instant, but Wen Lin was stunned.

She pretended to be inadvertently walked to Visia, and quickly pulled the person into the cabin.

With her hands on both sides of Vicia's body and completely covering her in her arms, Wen Lin looked down at Vicia with a serious face, "Your Majesty, why did you come aboard, does Eggers know?"

"He doesn't know," Vicia dipped her fingers into Wen Lin's hair following Wen Lin's movements, "Your Excellency, I have an obligation to deepen my understanding of you, especially the outstanding talent shown in commanding naval battles. ,"

Vicia's words meant something, and the warm breath that rushed over brushed Wen Lin's cheeks, and the atmosphere suddenly became ambiguous.

Frowning, Wen Lin glanced at the noisy scene outside the cabin, and without saying a word, pulled Vicia into her bedroom.

"Your Majesty, you are always self-willed," Wen Lin lighted up the heating stove after releasing her.

Then she sat a little irritably in the farthest position from Vicia.

Taking a sip of the rum on the table, Visiah concealed the strong constriction in her eyes. It was the first time she was blamed for her arrogance, but she seemed to feel very good. She took the initiative to say,

"Your Excellency Wen Lin, I know you will win, so I'm not putting myself in danger, let alone being willful,"

Wen Lin frowned and looked at Vicia, after being silent for a long time, she said a little discouraged,

"Your Majesty, what do you want to do?"

"miss you,"

A melodious song happened to be heard from outside the cabin. It was Elbo and the others who were teaching the knights to sing pirate songs.

This was completely different from the dignified and cold Visia in her impression, and Wen Lin didn't know how to deal with it.

Noticing the changing emotions on Wen Lin's face, Vicia smiled and said suddenly,

"Your Excellency, sing to me, sing songs of free, unyielding pirates full of ambition and blood,"

The author has something to say: Wei: Yes, simply because I miss you

I am a literature student, and the hair on my head really can’t be kept. The plot of gunpowder should be enjoyed by the children. I have tried my best to check the information. Those professional chemical equations, I am true watch! At once! Outrageous!

But no, humble licking the dog, and finally left, after leaving, the other party found out that he loved the other party deeply, and then went to chase it back. Is the latter called a crematorium?
