Chapter 475: Conquest of the baronies of Dungannon and Ardee 2/2
After conquering the castle, Ansgar ordered the corpses to be gathered outside the castle so that they could be burned.
Since if they were left where they were, they could cause disease.
After this, Ansgar sat on a chair while he watched the corpses burn outside the castle ‘Now that we have finished with this barony, I can advance to the city of Dun Dealgan.
Although I am somewhat concerned about whether the army is going to be large enough to be able to lay siege to that city.
If the descriptions are correct, then it is a city as big as Dublin. I just hope there are no people there.
I would hate to have to kill such good slaves, but looking at the state of this place, I have no doubt that there are only warriors in that city.
It is also a real problem that it cannot use special weapons to destroy the defenders, because being such a large city it has too high a strategic value for the nation. ‘
Ansgar stroked his head and looked up at the sky. ‘I guess I’ll have to find out if the city is empty or has people, whatever the answer is.
I am going to conquer that city. ‘
Three days later, at the siege camp outside Dungannon Castle, the sniper towers were already fully assembled.
Einar and Dreide who were on one of the sniper towers looked at the defenders who did not know the function of those wooden towers.
“Today I will teach you how to shoot a Nordic carbine, it will be difficult at the beginning, however I will be with you at all times.”
Einar took a Nordic carbine and looked at Dreide seriously. “Always remember that whatever weapon you have in your hands you should only take it if you are prepared to die.
If you use a weapon without the intention of dying, you will have many problems because you cannot expect to throw a stone and not suffer any damage.
Now I want you to carefully observe how I hold the Nordic carbine. The butt of the weapon must always be on the shoulder, as it will help to sustain the recoil of the weapon.
Which is caused by the shot. You should always remember that because if you wrongly grasp the weapon or place it in a place that you should not, and shoot.
It is likely that some of your bones could be broken or your body could be damaged.
A weapon like this is very dangerous, so you always have to be checked if the grip of your weapon is correct.
If you make a mistake, your body is the one who will suffer and that in a battle means death. “
Einar held the Nordic carbine tightly and looked through the telescopic sight. “You must always use your guiding eye to be able to see the enemy correctly.
Once you have chosen a target, you must take a deep breath, and that’s when you shoot. “
Dreide watched as Einar took a deep breath and when he finished, he shot, killing one of the enemy soldiers.
Which fell from the wall to the snow outside.
“A bullet is a death. Always remember that these bullets cost a lot of work to make and represent a trump card.
Now it will be your turn. I will help you so that you can hold the Nordic carbine correctly. “
Einar opened the carbine and inserted a paper cartridge, then closed the carbine and handed it to Dreide.
At that moment Einar took Dreide’s hands and fully accommodated the carbine on her body and, hugging her from behind, he was in charge of making her hold it correctly.
Dreide who could feel a soft breath on her neck could only smile because she liked that feeling.
“You already have the weapon settled, you just have to choose the target you want to kill, remember a bullet is a death.
You can take as long as you want to choose who you will kill. No one is going to pressure you. “
Dreide looked with her left eye at the different enemy soldiers, however one that was at the top of the battlement tower caught her eye.
Einar who realized this just smiled and spoke in Dreide’s ear “The further away the target is, you should aim higher because the bullet will fall like an arrow.
The man in the battlement tower should be about 300 meters away, so you should aim about 2 centimeters above the head in order to kill him. “
Dreide moved his scope towards the man’s head and started raising the scope about 2 centimeters.
“Now just take a deep breath and when your lungs are full of air, you just have to shoot.”
Dreide took a deep breath and having her lungs full of air she fired.
At that moment, she watched as the bullet went through the skull of the man on the battlement tower.
“That was a good shot, but you deserve an award for your first kill using the Nordic carbine, which is what you want.”
Dreide smirked wickedly and turned her head so she could kiss Einar, before putting her head close to Einar’s ear.
Einar, upon hearing the peculiar request, simply sighed and gave her another kiss. “If that’s what you want I’ll give you two options, but they will have to be after we finish the siege.
But you can be sure that I will comply with your request. “
Dreide laughed “I know what I will do, now if you excuse me I have a castle to conquer, you could only hug me from behind, I really like the feeling of your arms.”
Einar obeyed Dreide and hugged her, after which Dreide gave the order to attack, so the snipers climbed the wooden towers and began firing.
The defenders ran from side to side trying to escape, but the bullets ended their lives without giving them a chance to fight.
When the front of the castle walls was clear, Dreide gave the order to the soldiers of the special forces to climb the walls.
The special forces soldiers using their grapples quickly climbed the walls and engaged the defenders.
Seeing how the battle was unfolding, Dreide used two siege ladders for a few soldiers to climb up to support the special forces attack.
Two groups of soldiers with siege ladders climbed the walls and with their support the defenders of the castle broke their defensive lines.
As the attack was so powerful that they could not defend themselves so they ran to the battlement tower to seek refuge, unfortunately the keep was closed.
Dreide who had shot long ago had killed the bastard son of the baron of that castle, making it impossible to enter the battlement tower.
The enemy soldiers, seeing this, dropped their weapons and raised their hands because they knew that the battle was lost and they had lost the castle.
