Chapter 348

Accurate blasting with ordinary black powder is a very cumbersome thing.

First of all, they are in barrels. Because they are mainly used as propellant and primer, a large part of them are wrapped with paper bullets and gun cloth bags according to the needs of fire guns and artillery.

If we want them to completely change their functions, we must unpack and merge them on site, make explosives of what weight, place them in an appropriate place, try to form the maximum effect with the least damage, and try not to leave a gun for the Spanish.

Lorraine certainly didn't want to do this tedious and meticulous work, and Haina didn't have enough spare power, so of course, she could only throw it all to Barto, who had broken an arm and could not slightly hurt the line of fire.

In the center of the enemy camp, what kind of experience is it that the top commander holding the other party does nothing?

To be fair, there was no experience.

Barto's preparations took nearly two hours. In the process, two waves of people ran to the auditorium to report the ground situation to torresias.

The first news is that the chaos in Watergate has subsided. Although the attackers were repulsed, the Grenadier troops lost a lot.

It is known that more than 40 people were killed in the attack and more than 10 people were seriously injured. Among the seriously injured, the highest rank and the most seriously injured person is the commander of Grenada Grenadier force, Colonel Gonzalo de ovier.

The second message was less than 40 minutes after the first message, and the content was still the follow-up of the Watergate attack.

It was confirmed that many schools in ovier died at the age of 33.

Lorraine didn't care much about the Spanish colonial major who died young. He was more related to torresias's response.

Perhaps because Lorraine was close at hand, or because Lorraine's hand had been holding the handle of the knife, torresias showed extreme cooperation. He didn't let anyone into the auditorium. All reports went through the door. At the end of the second report, he thought how many schools ovier mourned and banned the soldiers from continuing to report to the auditorium.

"After the mourning, I will go to the deputy head. Before that, I will report any changes to the deputy head!"

That's what he said.

Lorraine was surprised at his simplicity and boldness in the process of seeking life.

If there were no secret information such as I was kidnapped hidden in those partition walls, torresias and others personally drove away the soldiers who might rescue him in order to express their sincerity to the kidnappers, and gave up the last chance to warn the garrison.

With his cooperation, the preparations for the blasting were finally completed.

Bator set up a simple delay detonator, leaving only the candles to start the mechanism, waiting for Lorraine's final order.

So Lorraine looked at torresias: "Baron, I remember you said that there was a secret road to the lake in the bunker..."

Not long after, in the arsenal.

Under the command of toresias, Lorraine personally fought against the mountain of more than 20 barrels of fresh wheat flour stacked at the corner of the wall. Finally, he saw a secret door hidden in the sundry warehouse of the arsenal.

"This is the secret way?" Lorraine looked strange.

Torresias shrugged lazily: "the auditorium is the command room of the barrier and the field hospital for the temporary reception of war wounded soldiers. It is natural to set the secret road in this area."

"Are there any guards in the secret way?"

"No. the secret channel is a secret. Before the commander really starts it, ordinary soldiers and middle and lower level officers have no qualification to know."

"In that case..."

Lorraine took out his pocket watch and looked at the time. At 10:40, it was nearly three hours longer than the time agreed between him and Nelson.

Now he only hoped that Nelson would not mistake their state for death and withdraw the troops ambushed in the rainforest before the thunder exploded.

If such a bad thing happened, Lorraine would leave torresias as soon as he escaped from the bunker, and then run as far as he could.

In short, the decisive moment is coming.

Barto inserted the candle into the prepared candlestick and lit the fire.

The candle will burn the rope temporarily wrapped with thick wax at the top of the candle within 20 minutes, resulting in a ceramic charcoal basin falling down and smashing to pieces, which will ignite the lamp oil below.

A total of 16 explosive cables were soaked in this pot of lamp oil at the beginning. At this time, they had been full of lamp oil and became flammable at the touch of a touch.

They will become channels of flame until they ignite all the explosives buried in guns and wall cracks.

Boom!

Lorraine simulated the final explosion in his mind and couldn't help laughing.

He said to torresias, "we have 20 minutes left. We should go."

……

At this time, the lakeside wharf.

Daniel stared again and again at the slender shadow of the San Carlos not far away.

His task is to seize the ship.

Unlike Lorraine, who was alone, he was surrounded by capable sailors, and even Lev was supplemented by Lorraine.

Daniel knew in his heart that Lorraine reinforced LEV in order to prevent the emergence of Blackbeard.

But Daniel doesn't think Blackbeard will show up tonight.

The movement of the Watergate attack is much greater than that of the port authority. There are gunshots, whistles, shouts and screams

Daniel saw with his own eyes that some taxis gathered in a small square not far away. A total of 40 or 50 people formed a rigorous and thick temporary line, and reinforced in the direction of Watergate with the sound of drums.

It was they who made Blackbeard swallow the bitter fruit of the failure of the operation again.

Daniel found out that although the Grenadier troops suffered heavy losses, they also caused great damage to the attackers.

Blackbeard took more than 20 people, and only 7 really came out of it. Two of the remaining 13 were captured and 11 died in the chaos.

Soon new news came through again. Oviedo died. The angry soldiers vented their anger and anger on the prisoners. Just a moment later, the two prisoners were tortured to death.

It's just that even such a major event has come to an end. Lorraine and others who sneaked into the civilian military camp still haven't heard any news.

Were they captured, too?

Can it be said that the operation tonight has long been leaked, and the militia camp is a snare?

After all, without this level of defense, it is really hard for some sailors to imagine a threat to Lorraine and Haina.

The key is what Daniel himself should do?

Do you want to take the sailors around you to follow Blackbeard's example and raid the Watergate to rescue Lorraine, or give Lorraine unconditional trust that he is only hampered by something, and the explosion used as a command will explode anytime, anywhere?

Then again, when can this damn thunder explode?

San Carlos well, now is the best time to seize!

Previously, because of the battle at Watergate, the sailors on the ship had been transferred to only about ten people, and the enemy was clear and dark.

With the help of such combat power as LEV, seizing the San Carlos may even lead to zero casualties.

But Lorraine's request is to wait for the thunder

Daniel was a ship doctor. Before he became a ship doctor, he was a surgeon, a barber in London, and an alchemist who was respected and feared.

He was not good at fighting. After joining Lorraine's flagship, he only learned the basics of sailors. He never really commanded the sailors and did not participate in the discussion of battle plans.

Everything in front of him made him feel strange. The strangest thing was his intuitive feeling of dilemma.

Should we stick to the pre war plan?

As he was thinking, Lev strode into the door.

"Daniel Soland, what the hell are you waiting for? The scouts said that Mara came out of the port authority with the sailors. It seems that she is ready to get on the ship. When they get on the ship, a dozen of us can't rob brigantine!"

"But thunder..."

"Hell, the captain used the explosion as the start signal to improve our weight to grab the ship. Now the defense on the ship is weaker than the thunder in the original plan. Tell me you're going to miss this opportunity and wait for thunder and maybe more defenders?"

"This..."

"Have you forgotten the captain's request for us? After seizing the ship, immediately go north along the lake bank, leave the wharf and meet the crew. He deliberately said not to wait for him. The implication is to let us judge the time of action by ourselves. You know, judge by ourselves!"

"Really?"

Daniel was still skeptical, but like LEV, he couldn't bear the temptation of San Carlos to guard against emptiness in the end.

He swallowed several times in the dark and raised his finger to the lonely brigantine warship more than 100 meters away.

"Fight to seize the ship. All..."

"Kill!" "boom!!!!!!!!!!"
