Three Hundred and Forty-Four Gospels of Saint Mary
If Morey hadn't surrendered, Lorraine would never have imagined the true face of San Carlos.
Under the appearance of chaos and order intertwined, her essence is actually a military bunker that is easy to defend and difficult to attack.
According to Morey, the militia barracks was the earliest fortress built in San Carlos, covering only one-eighth of the current fortress. Later, the western city, lakeside pier, church and water gate were successively expanded.
This is the territory of the Miskito people.
No one knows how many native savages are hidden in the vast rainforest, when they will go crazy like wild animals, let alone whether they can be scared away with limited guns and cannons.
The simple log city wall could not bring a sense of security to the Spaniards stationed here. They needed better defense and a safer residence, especially during the period before it became a commercial hub for the Pacific and Atlantic Oceans.
Grenada has assisted them in every possible way.
A total of more than 5,000 slaves were transported to this fortress in the name of resting the western city and expanding the gathering place, and built a solid hexagonal bunker under the civilian army camp, which was said to never fall.
This is the last defense of San Carlos, the Bastion of the Gospel of Santa Maria.
The Bastion of the Gospel of Santa Maria is a super fortress with complete facilities.
Its main body is hidden deep in the ground, and its size can hold a whole ball. There are three independent living springs in the castle, and the food reserves are replaced every six months, enough to feed a thousand people for half a year.
The arsenal hidden deep in the center of the fortress stores munitions and spare parts for 3,000 people, as well as a large amount of ammunition. It is also equipped with simple black powder processing workshops and lead bullet workshops. The raw materials are inexhaustible.
It even has a battery for itself.
The six forts are divided into six corners, and on the top are the officers' dormitories located in various parts of the barracks. Each turret is equipped with four guns, two fixed old 24-pound land warfare mortars, and two new 12-pound land warfare light guns equipped with gun carriages, which can be used for defense and counterattack.
Although he was not doing his job properly, Lorraine still took the time to visit the semi-covered fort at the bottom of his feet accompanied by Morey. He saw not only the cannon, but also the mountain-high shells of various colors piled up in the ammunition warehouse.
There was only one thought left in his mind.
Fortunately, the officers of the civilian army are terrible...
during peacetime,
The fort is prepared with ammunition but not ammunition. All gunpowder is stored in the bunker general storehouse, and not a single propellant is left in the fort.
This brand new discovery made Lorraine feel frightened.
If I hadn't come to San Carlos to hide on a whim, if I hadn't caught up with the dispute over the rights of the three military chiefs, hadn't met the stupid and bad Marat, and hadn't received the task of destroying the civilian army's arsenal...
They will definitely meet with a broken head in front of this bunker armed to the teeth. Even if they are lucky enough to win the Spaniards, they will completely lose the cost of continuing to carry out the operation.
This matter is more than just a dangerous word.
Standing at the firing port of the turret, Lorraine stroked the gun cover covering the gun barrel expressionlessly and asked Morey, "Are you sure that none of the six turrets have stored propellant?"
"That's for sure, after all, no one would take their own life as a joke." Morey replied with a wry smile, "The bedroom is built on gunpowder as high as a mountain, just thinking about it makes my heart tremble. "
"It seems that it is impossible for you to return to the sea." Lorraine shook his head. "When we were at sea, we stepped on a pile of gunpowder that was enough to blow the ship to pieces."
Morey raised his eyebrows in surprise: "Are you a navy?"
"Not really."
"Not really?"
"To be precise, my identity is a privateer mercenary of the Royal Navy of Great Britain. I am indeed here under a military order, but I am not a soldier myself."
"You... British?!"
Lorraine nodded silently.
"But...but you clearly promised me that you would let me live..."
"yes."
"You...you swore a poisonous oath to God..."
"yes."
"Those who lie to the Lord will go to hell after death!"
"Actually, it doesn't matter." Lorraine shrugged his shoulders boringly, "Anyway, in the gospel of your Lord, as long as you don't believe in Him, you will go to hell anyway."
...
A big hand stretched out from behind the guard soldier, and stuck it to the back of the soldier's neck at a nearly constant speed, pinched it tightly, and twisted it off in one go.
The soldier fell down without saying a word, and Lorraine emerged from the shadows, and saw Hannah pull the knife out of the opponent's neck diagonally not far away.
"How many are left?" Lorraine stretched her waist and asked.
"Three if you don't count the auditorium."
"You two, I one, a quick battle."
"good."
At 8:17 in the evening, a full 17 minutes had passed since the total attack time agreed with Nelson, and Lorraine still failed to see Kumen, who had a solid arsenal.
This is an expected delay.
Because ever since the bunker emerged from Morey's mouth, the whole thing has been gliding irresistibly toward the abyss of trouble.
The Gospel of Santa Maria is regarded by the Spaniards as the foundation of the fortress and the life-saving talisman of personal safety. No matter how peaceful the ground is, the underground is always heavily guarded.
The entire bunker was brightly lit, at least half a company of soldiers were scattered in the corners of this huge labyrinth.
These people are either coordinating to guard the main roads, or patrolling at the core. Lorraine and Hannah have to be accompanied by blood every step forward, and they have to be careful not to make a sound and alarm those forces who know nothing about the invasion.
Lorraine's only luck is that Henna is a professional counterpart for such occasions.
In a short passage of two hundred meters, Lorraine killed three, and Hana killed nine. After stumbling, they finally came to the last pass in front of the arsenal, the Barrier Auditorium.
The auditorium is the most spacious room in the bunker. It is located in the center of the entire building and has a rectangular shape. Judging from the design structure, it should be a multifunctional space for gatherings, worship, dining, establishing a command post, and housing wounded soldiers during wartime.
Its northern third is separated by a thick stone wall, and inside the wall is the arsenal, the ultimate goal of Lorraine's operation.
This means that the auditorium is a place that must be captured and cannot be bypassed in this infiltration operation.
If you consider that Lorraine and his party are actually only two and a half people, how many people are there in this spacious common room, and whether Lorraine's appetite can eat will ultimately determine the success or failure of the entire San Carlos Raiders War .
If you can't eat...
Along the way, Lorraine has already given himself enough psychological preparation. If the defense of the auditorium exceeds his tolerance, he will immediately leave with Heina and Barto, gather all the infiltrators and leave the city overnight, and try to persuade Nelson to give up this raid. sea action.
If Nelson is really stubborn, the Drake Chamber of Commerce unilaterally terminates the employment contract is not an option that cannot be considered.
Reviewing it again in his mind, Lorraine leaned against the wall and pointed to the square ventilation duct above his head.
Ventilation ducts are an essential facility for high-standard bunkers. They connect every room in the bunker, and the exits are often hidden.
The ventilating duct of the Holy Mary Gospel Fortress is particularly spacious, and it is with this that Henna knows the bunker well, and has achieved a much higher hunting result than Lorraine.
The inspection of the auditorium still depends on it.
Henna understood, started a run-up, lightly stepped on Lorraine's shoulders and climbed into the vent.
About ten minutes later, she crawled out from the entrance again, her emerald eyes gleaming in the shadows.
"There are only six people in the auditorium, including four guards. In addition, the fortress commander Torresias is inside. I heard from him that the water gate was attacked..."
