Chapter 764 Xiaobu's Wish
Isabella was not in a hurry to achieve more victories. She just commanded the knights to roll over the battlefield again and again, like naughty children, graffiti on the mud.
She turned the battlefield into hell.
The Imperials were terrified, and the Imperial cavalry that were originally coming to support them had long disappeared. They ran much faster than the infantry.
The infantry on other fronts fled in all directions, and fear spread like a plague on the battlefield.
After Isabella led the knights to charge several times, she looked back at the battlefield.
There was chaos, and the Empire had not been able to organize a counterattack until now, even though they only had dozens of people.
"It's boring, let's go back." Isabella waved behind her, and the knights left the battlefield reluctantly.
Most of them were very excited, and Galahad even shouted and taunted at the other side:
"You little bastards of the Empire, times have changed! Throw away your shabby muskets, for now is the age of knights!"
The extraordinary person of the [Knight] Path had always been pitifully weak because he had no church as his backing. Now he finally had a chance to show off his strength.
Just now, he was charging on horseback and firing a Gatling gun at the same time, which was really cool. Now he was full of pride and felt that he had found a way out for the [Knight].
Other methods are powerful, but no one can be as unscrupulous as he is in riding a horse and firing at the same time.
The only way to fight is if the [Investigator] is riding on the [Undertaker].
Isabella looked at Galahad's arrogant look and found it funny: "Do you remember what we are here for?"
Galahad was stunned: "Uh, investigation?"
"So what did you find out?"
Galahad was completely at a loss. He hesitated for a moment, took off his helmet and scratched his head: "They have never seen our weapons."
"That's right, they haven't seen it. This is not normal."
"The Candlelight Society's investigators are best at investigating and gathering intelligence. There's no reason they can't get our information."
Indeed, when Castel's expeditionary force attacked the North, they did not hide these weapons. Both Gatling guns and bolt-action rifles appeared on the battlefield.
The soldiers of the Empire might not have seen it, but the investigators who went to the North definitely collected this information.
Even Galahad noticed something was amiss: "Is the Vatican still strife-ridden? Hasn't this intelligence been disseminated?"
"I'm inclined to believe another possibility," Isabella said calmly, "The Vatican's focus isn't on this."
"You mean?"
"Jules may have other cards in his hand, so he didn't spend too much time on the ordinary soldiers. After this battle, we'll just have to wait and see how the other side reacts."
Zeus shared a lot of information with Isabella, especially about the former Mechanical Society.
As the queen, Isabella knew a lot about the Mechanical Temple. She knew that they actually had some war machines, but most of those things were no longer usable, and those that could be used were regarded as sacred objects. Not to mention being used, people were not even allowed to look at them.
Today, the Mechanical Temple has been completely controlled by the Candlelight Society and exists in name only. The Mechanical Temple cares about the holy relics, but the Candlelight Society does not.
These ancient war machines are likely to be used on the battlefield.
"So, don't push the front too hastily. If you claim times have changed with a Gatling gun today, who knows tomorrow the Empire's church might rise up and reverse the times you've changed."
Galahad felt a chill in his heart when he heard this.
What Isabella said was not just a joke. In the style of the Mechanical Temple, there might really be a church that can stand up.
"Then we should wait for Castel's plan for land boating?"
Isabella laughed in anger. "There's no need to be so conservative. They haven't even fixed the leak yet. I don't know how long it will take. Besides, Castel's ironclad ships are coming. Will the captured city belong to them or to me?"
Galahad was silent.
Indeed, relying on Castel is a very safe choice. When this behemoth is in full operation, there will be no enemies in front of it, only ants that will be crushed to death.
But they are just ants in front of Castel.
If you don't demonstrate your own value, you are not qualified to walk with this steel giant. You still have to fight the battle on your own.
"Complete the replacement of new weapons as soon as possible, and then launch an all-out attack. All troops must have experience using new weapons, and you..."
Isabella's eyes fell on Galahad, and the knight quickly straightened his back.
"You need to develop new tactics as soon as possible. You are right about one thing at least—the times have indeed changed, and they are constantly changing. We must also change with them."
Isabella looked at her knights and the guns in their hands. She had achieved more brilliant results before, but never as easy as this.
The soldiers were covered in blood that time before, but today, their armor was not dirty at all.
The young queen licked her lips and said, "I don't know what the future battle will be like. I can't wait any longer."
Castel.
Xiaobu sat on the chair with a nervous look on his face, watching the soldiers busy at the door.
They were wearing clothes that covered them from head to toe, with no skin exposed, and even their eyes were covered with two pieces of transparent glass lenses.
Xiaobu was a little uneasy. After she delivered the letter, she was brought here. It was said that some disinfection procedure was to be carried out.
The room she was in had no windows and even the door was sealed.
Out of caution, Hughes decided to isolate Xiaobu temporarily.
After all, Xiaobu is an underground resident, completely isolated from other people in the Rhine. Maybe he is a human subspecies that has evolved separately.
This situation is likely to bring some unknown diseases, just like Europeans brought smallpox to the Indians.
Therefore, although Xiaobu completed the letter delivery mission, he could not go back for a short time and is now isolated in the testing site in Gem Bay.
In order to appease her emotions and compensate her for her contributions, Xiaobu's requests will basically be met.
This is still very useful. After hearing that he can have whatever he wants, Xiaobu no longer resists this temporary isolation.
And what she asked for.
"Xiaobu, I want clothes!"
After hearing this request, Hughes was stunned for a moment. After confirming that this was not a metaphor for asking for freedom, he actually sent a batch of clothes to her from Blood Harbor.
——Although Castel has a developed industry, Blood Harbor has a richer selection of clothing styles and trends.
Xiaobu didn't care about these things. She picked up a piece of clothing at random and put it on happily.
After Xiu Si patiently asked her if she had any other requests, Xiao Bu's request made him pause again.
"I want knowledge."
