Chapter 495

The Grand Duke of Portland.

Joe brought a large number of soldiers, they cooperate with the Royal knight, quickly blocked the streets around.

On the roof of the mansion near the official residence, some soldiers with new sniper rifles touched it. They set up sniper positions on the roof and sealed off the official residence in an all-round way.

By the way, these new sniper rifles are also from the drawings given by Joe.

Because of the high precision requirement and the difficulty of processing, no military factory near Heidelberg has succeeded in trial production. The existing more than 100 new sniper rifles are still made by Jules Silver Hammer and his family by hand.

The gun body is 30 millimetres in diameter, 5 feet and 2 inches long. It uses 10 rounds of magazine and is equipped with a special eight times optical sight. Special propellants, special large charge bullets and special alloy armour piercing warheads. In the test, this large caliber sniper rifle can blow an extraordinary strong man into two parts with one shot.

Joe asked people to go to Salian to ask for reinforcements. Salian sent out the sniper force which had just been established for two days.

If the people Joe is going to deal with and they cooperate with each other, these snipers will be useless But if there is anyone who doesn't want to fight, it's just through the actual combat to test the actual combat power of these snipers.

When all the troops were in place, Joe rode his horse to the front door of the Portland mansion.

A centurion of the Royal Knights, riding to the front door, yelled: "in the name of the Empire, open the door. Give you ten counts. After ten counts, we'll attack! "

Joe raised his right hand. He raised his fingers and yelled, "well, don't bother Ten Attack

With a wave of his right hand, the Knights and soldiers behind him surged in.

With a loud bang, several royal knights wearing heavy armour and holding war hammers waved sledgehammers and blasted the heavy gate down from the doorframe cleanly.

With the harsh cracking sound of the doorshaft, two huge metal doors were heavily patted on the ground.

The knights, fully armed, rode at the front.

Behind them, soldiers in iron gray uniforms, armed with guns, came in neat lines.

Dozens of guards of the Grand Duke of Portland poured out from a small building behind the door. They were holding swords and staring at the intruders - their clothes, and the flags in the hands of several officers. They all declared their identity.

Some of the guards subconsciously let go and the weapons fell to the ground.

But there are still some bodyguards - they are all wearing the Knights' suits with lantern sleeves and black background and yellow slashes unique to the Principality of Portland. They are not hired bodyguards, they are noble knights who fled to the Durham Empire following the Principality of Portland.

They roared loudly and rushed up to meet the intruders, forming a sparse line of defense in front of the intruders who were hundreds of times bigger than themselves.

"This is the residence of the Duke of Portland This place is protected by the medland public foreign law Here, the land of the Principality of Portland You have no right to break into Quit! Quit

A middle-aged man in a knight's suit, with two ribbons on his chest and a shield badge on it, roared as loud as he could.

He waved his sabre, and with a hiss, a pale blue light came out from the blade, splitting an arc of dozens of feet on the ground.

Several royal knights rushed to the front, the blade spurted out, and almost fell on their horse's hooves.

A few horses were frightened. They raised their front hooves and stood up. Several Royal Knights were skilled in riding. They stood up in the stirrups, and their swords fell forward.

"Hiss" a few sounds, a few swords flying down.

The Cavaliers of Portland in a row yelled in unison. They raised their weapons and blocked the fallen swords.

The next moment, a large group of Royal Knights jumped out of their horses, formed a battle, and rushed to the front of the thin line of defense. Just a collision, more than a dozen Portland knights were hit to spit blood and fall to the ground, and then they quickly put on a number of Knights' swords on their necks.

The study of the Duke of Portland.

The door of the study was smashed open, and an old man with white hair and beard rushed in, wearing traditional Portland aristocratic clothes and three palm sized round saucer shaped medals hanging on his left chest.

"Dagong, the army of the dren Empire has launched a surprise attack. They broke in

The old man's pupils shrunk to the size of a needle tip. In his voice, there was a tremor, full of panic.

The Duke of Portland turned abruptly and looked at the old man in horror.

Then he looked quickly at Edward.

Edward was stunned. He sprang up from his office chair and yelled, "Damn it, are you sure it's their army? How could they do that They... "

This is the residence of the Duke of Portland.After fleeing the Principality of Portland, the Duke of Portland, with the help of a group of loyal followers, established a government in exile, sheltered under the wings of the Durham empire.

The hidden rule of mainland medland countries is that the high-level government in exile is often given more preferential treatment than other powerful countries!

You can call it aristocratic hypocrisy.

You say it's a rabbit or a fox.

In a word, in Heidelberg, the Grand Duke of Portland enjoyed a higher privilege than other ambassadors. Even his many shady underground businesses were sheltered by the high level of the Empire. Many of his illegal and illegal behaviors even turned a blind eye to the imperial supervision department and the police department.

Even the Duke of Portland makes hundreds of millions of profits every year, but his annual taxes are only a few thousand gold marks!

The tax department of the Empire turned a blind eye to this.

Many of the subordinates of the Grand Duke of Portland are tyrannical and bullying men and women, but several times they have caused human life cases As long as the Grand Duke of Portland comes forward and gives enough financial compensation to the families of the victims, those subordinates who have killed people will be able to go to the Lika police station safely and will not be subject to follow-up investigation.

Such preferential treatment How could an Imperial Army break in?

"Edward..." The Duke of Portland breathed heavily. He looked at Edward with a deep look: "you have to leave Go through the back door. "

Edward coughed heavily. He clenched his fists, and then slowly let go. He looked at the Duke of Portland: "is there no secret way?"

The Duke of Portland stared at Edward in horror: "are you kidding? I, a great Duke in exile, dig the secret road in the imperial capital of the suzerain state? Do you think that's possible? For the past 30 years, I have been able to live like a duck in water in Heidelberg because of my good manners! "

"Go through the back door, hurry It must be something you asked Amori to do The trouble. "

The Duke of Portland pulled up his coat and muttered: "unexpectedly, Ferdinand, that old trash, he How dare you do such a thing? In order to default, do you do anything? "

"Well, it's no big deal, as long as you don't get caught, you're with me." The Duke of Portland took a deep look at Edward, who was a little at a loss: "in fact, even if you and I are caught together, it doesn't matter. Who doesn't have many friends?"

As he spoke, the Duke of Portland grabbed Edward by the shoulder and pushed him to the door of his study.

"But, Edward, it's a little offensive, but I have to say - it's OK to be caught by them and we're together What I'm afraid of is that I can keep my mouth shut, and you, if you say something you shouldn't say! "

Edward yelled, "don't look down on people, my Lord!"

While they were talking, they rushed out of the study and followed a corridor outside the door to a secret staircase at the end. They rushed down the stairs and opened a small door. Behind the door was a stone corridor, and there were several armed guards waiting.

They quickly rushed out nearly 200 feet along the corridor. Behind them, there was a huge noise, and the sound of heavy steps on the snow.

Listen to the footsteps, at least thousands of people broke in.

It's really an army of scale.

The Duke of Portland's face was a little black. As he pushed Edward forward, he told him in a hurry: "Mr. Edward, when you go back, let the Deputy envoys contact the ambassadors of all countries immediately to protest against the Durham empire's killing of the exiled governments of its subsidiary countries..."

"Although I don't know what happened, why did Ferdinand suddenly become so bold But I understand one thing. There is an old saying in Donglu: "the dog jumps over the wall in a hurry!"

"The number of IOU that Amori brought is too large. Are we driving Ferdinand crazy?"

"Damn, I said, even if it's debt collection, you can't take out all the IOU at one time I'm just cooperating with you to test Ferdinand. We... "

The group rushed out of the corridor and came to a stone road covered with thin snow.

More than 100 feet in front of them was a back door of the grand duke's residence in Portland, which was huge and opened a door on every street.

The door in front of them is the nearest back door to the study.

Several guards in black stood rigidly by the door, staring at the outside through the hollow metal flower gate.

The Archduke of Portland, Edward and others stopped at the same time.

Through the gate, they saw that the street outside was full of rows of imperial soldiers in iron gray uniforms. In front of these imperial soldiers, there were more than 200 Royal Knights on horseback and in bright armor.

In the hands of the centurion of the two knights in the front, on the long lance, the triangular flag flutters in the cold wind, and the Hydra crest on it is clearly visible.

"The Royal knight." "Edward, are you ready to be tortured? With what I know about Ferdinand, he will not hesitate to attack you. ""Remember, you must not say that you asked me to go to Apophis palace to collect money."

"You can't even say that you told me about his presence at Apophis palace."

"If they want to ask you what you are doing here, you can say that you have a small investment of hundreds of thousands of gold marks here, and you are here to get this year's dividend."

The Duke of Portland breathed deeply. He reached out to the old man who had just rushed into his study to report.

The old man quickly took out a large traveler's check from his chest pocket and put it in the hands of the Duke of Portland.

The Duke of Portland put the check in the chest pocket of Edward's light pink vest and patted him gently on the chest: "remember, this is the dividend you get from me. You came to me just for a deal

"I'll carry everything. You just need to make sure that one thing - you can't let the dren Empire know, or let them know, or let them catch hold of it. It's true that I'm not only going to take refuge in the dren Empire, but also cooperating with you ice sea kingdom!"
