Lord Harland

Chapter 137 The Rebellion Is Over

Richard stood on the observation deck and saw a group of rebels starting to take the boiling blood potion. He immediately sent the fifty alchemical bombs that he had prepared to the grenadiers.

Although the Warcraft Cavalry was not around, Richard still had alchemical bombs to use.

People who use the boiling blood potion become fanatical and stupid.

Only smart soldiers can live well and make military achievements on the battlefield.

Stupid people react slowly, and once the battlefield situation changes, it is difficult to respond correctly.

Facing the impact of the boiling blood converts, Richard was not particularly worried.

Seeing the boiling blood converts rushing up enthusiastically and entering the grenadiers' throwing range.

The grenadiers waved their arms and threw alchemical bombs into the crowd of boiling blood converts.

In an instant, smoke filled the air and shrapnel flew across the sky, and the boiling blood converts suffered heavy casualties.

After the fifty alchemical bombs were thrown, the boiling blood converts had suffered thirty or forty casualties.

The Boiling Blood converts didn't care about casualties, and the remaining sixty or seventy still rushed towards the military station fiercely.

Richard drew his bow and shot several Boiling Blood converts, but it was a pity that these people were still ordinary people in nature, and there was no killing experience to be gained by killing Boiling Blood converts.

The physical fitness of the Boiling Blood converts was close to that of professionals, and their speed was very fast. In just six or seven seconds, they rushed over a distance of one hundred meters.

Seeing that the Boiling Blood converts were about to climb up the wall of the village and rush into the military station.

Richard immediately used the powerful spider web technique. He invested eight points of mental power at once, and a huge magic spider web five meters wide and thirty meters long appeared on the ground, instantly sticking to more than twenty Boiling Blood converts.

Seeing that the Boiling Blood converts could not move, the veterans in the military station shot arrows one after another. After one or two seconds, these twenty or so Boiling Blood converts were already full of arrows and died on the spot.

After two rounds of attacks, the remaining more than forty Boiling Blood converts climbed up the wall of the village and rushed into the camp.

Although the Boiling Blood Converts were powerful, there were also many veterans in the military station. They formed a group of three or five people and cooperated with professional officers to fight against the Boiling Blood Converts.

For a time, blood and flesh flew everywhere in the military station, and there were heavy casualties.

Richard stood on a high place and continuously shot cold arrows to kill the Boiling Blood Converts who entered the camp. In less than a minute, he successfully shot and killed eight people.

Seeing that Richard was too threatening, the rebel commander immediately dispatched more than ten archers to attack Richard with bows and arrows.

The arrows shot and were blocked by the powerful energy shield released by Richard in advance.

The energy shield released by investing four points of mental power blocked ten cold arrows and the shield was broken.

Being targeted by more than ten archers, the danger was very high.

Richard hurriedly jumped down from the lookout and hid in the crowd.

The Boiling Blood Converts rushed into the camp, and the rebel commander immediately asked the third echelon to join the battle, taking the opportunity to expand the gap and defeat the enemy.

The third echelon was already the reserve of the rebels, with a total of more than 600 people.

As soon as these 600-plus people crossed the moat, they were hit by a hail of arrows, and many of them were killed and wounded immediately.

At the same time, more than ten Boiling Blood converts in the camp were also killed and wounded, and the remaining Boiling Blood converts were less than 20.

Richard ordered Martin to command the first squadron, the fifth squadron, and the eighth squadron to suppress the main force of the rebels. He led his personal soldiers and the Sharp squadron to encircle and annihilate the Boiling Blood converts.

After reorganizing the serfs brought by Baron Rice, the infantry squadron commanded by Richard already had 300 people.

The squadron under Baron Sharp was of good quality, and many of them were veterans of the Eighth Battalion. After the incorporation of serfs, there was still a numerical advantage, and with the two killers Richard and Sharp, the remaining Boiling Blood converts were quickly killed.

The rebel commander had just approached the wall of the camp, and Richard and Sharp had cleared the enemies in the camp.

Although the rebels were of better quality, Richard still repelled the rebels' fierce attack with the protection of the camp.

The rebels had just retreated and reorganized their formation.

Baron Deyang had already arrived nearby with his cavalry.

Faced with the charge of more than 200 Warcraft cavalry, the rebels were immediately defeated.

Seeing that the rebels were doomed to fail, Richard immediately led his troops out of the camp and cooperated with Baron Deyang to wipe out the cavalry in one fell swoop.

During the battle, Richard also seized the opportunity to kill the rebel commander, the sixth-level warrior Ho Finn.

Killing a sixth-level warrior was rewarded with a great merit, and killing one hundred boiling blood converts was another great merit, plus the command merit of this battle and the merit of killing the rebel professional.

Richard was very close to being awarded the second baron.

After the battle, Richard commanded the soldiers to chop off the heads of the boiling blood converts and pile up the bodies and burn them.

The flames burning the bodies at the military station burned until noon the next day, and the bodies of the rebels were burned clean.

The bodies of the soldiers who died in the battle would also be cremated and placed in pottery jars to bring to their relatives in the territory.

The soldiers commanded by Richard suffered heavy casualties in this battle.

The first squadron suffered 32 deaths and 61 minor and serious injuries, of which more than 50 were veterans.

The fifth squadron suffered 28 deaths and 46 minor and serious injuries, of which more than 40 were veterans.

The eighth squadron suffered the heaviest casualties, with 56 deaths and 87 casualties. Most of the casualties were serfs.

The Sharp squadron suffered 26 deaths and 41 minor and serious injuries.

The four squadrons combined, plus the loss of Richard's personal soldiers, suffered about 380 casualties.

After this battle, Richard did not participate in the next battle.

Baron Deyang led the Warcraft Cavalry to participate in the siege of the City of Victory.

The siege was very brutal. More than 10,000 people were killed and wounded in the serfs and noble coalition.

Finally, with the help of the Dawn Church Cardinal Mavila, who used the artifact Dawn Badge to kill the Night Walker Marlo, they won the victory with difficulty.

Although the main army to guard against orcs was not mobilized on a large scale to participate in the war, the casualties were not light at all.

Because of the rebellion caused by the cultists, Canyon County lost 60,000 people, Brena County lost about 10,000 people, and Wright County lost several thousand people.

Nine barons died in the battle. Including the noble serfs, the Grant Kingdom lost 16,000 soldiers and the main force also lost 5,000 people.

In addition, due to the deliberate destruction of the cultists, a plane channel leading to the dead world was opened on the mountain roads of Brena and Canyon counties.

Closing this plane channel is also a very troublesome thing.

After the rebellion, because the city governor of Canyon County had been killed by the rebels, the responsibility was traced to the provincial level.

The provincial governor, Jerram, was transferred back to the capital. Although this was good news for Richard, his successor was named Bellet Holland, who was also from the Holland family.

Richard supported Edles, who was also successfully promoted this time and became the deputy governor of the province.

In the upper echelons of the Geda Province, there was finally a spokesperson for the interests of the Harland family.
