Chapter 280 The Fish Didn't Catch

"newcomer?"

"Come to travel."

"No wonder they are so rich. Fishing rods are made of steel."

"Haha, it's convenient."

"Your position is not good."

"fine."

Frederick chatted with the old fishing brother on the side, and began to hook.

He didn't carry much luggage. Apart from swords and weapons, there was only a 130-liter travel bag. In addition to clothes, there were tents and raincoats, first-aid kits, kettles, horseshoes, pots and pans in the backpack.

So his fishing rod is connected by 4 hot-dip galvanized steel pipes through external joints, and it is more than two meters long. In his hometown, he will be regarded as a water pipe in his life.

There is also a steel plate in his backpack, which can be used as a shield when necessary, and a small table is formed by connecting these four steel pipes.

This set of fishing rods and shields are made of elemental steel, and when necessary, they can be attached to a gun head as a spearman.

Fortunately, he is also an extraordinary warrior now, so it is not heavy to carry so many things.

The elder brother who was fishing not far from Frederick was a small landowner nearby, and a servant not far behind him was lighting a stove and cooking dinner.

His supper was a scone and fish soup made from freshly hoisted fish.

"Drink a bowl and try our fish." The old man smiled and asked the servant to give Frederick a bowl of white fish soup. There are too many bones, the fish should be broken up when cooking soup, and the bones should be strained out when drinking."

After Frederick thanked him, he took a sip. It was sour and delicious, which was quite good.

At this time, the float on the river moved slightly, and he drank the soup quietly without lifting the pole.

The elder brother next to him nodded his head, thinking that this man is a good one. At this time, the fish was testing the bait, but he hadn’t eaten it yet. If he picked up the rod at this time, the fish would run away.

"Pfft!"

A horse-drawn carriage passed by on the stone bridge not far from Frederick's other side, and someone suddenly threw some rubbish into the water, scaring the fish away.

The elder brother said to him: "I just said that the position is not good."

Frederick shook his head helplessly, changed the bait and re-hooked.

It's just that the float didn't move for a long time this time.

The old man next to him hoisted up two fish, asked the servant to roast them, and gave one to Frederick.

This time the fish looked a bit like a big cake, the fish scales were not removed, so it was quite crispy when baked.

At this time, the servant lit the insect repellent cigarette again, and Frederick chatted with his elder brother.

Pointing to the other bank of the river a hundred meters away, the old man said: "In recent days, there have been many more people fishing by the bridge on the other side than in the past, but they are all beginners. The fish lifted their rods when they were testing, and there was nothing. "

Frederick said: "You will know after fishing a few times."

What happened next made him very depressed, because there was no fish to bite the bait, even after changing the bait several times.

This time he used the most active earthworm as bait, and just as he took the hook, there was a sound of horseshoes behind him.

Frederick didn't care about the things behind him, the float moved slightly under the moonlight, and some fish began to test the bait.

A carriage pulled by two horses ran up the stone bridge, making a noise, but fortunately, nothing was thrown, and the fish did not stop testing the bait.

"boom!"

The section of the stone bridge on the other side of the river suddenly exploded violently, and the flames soared into the sky. After a while, countless stones fell like raindrops, splashing a spray on the river.

A fist-sized stone fell beside Frederick's buoy, and there was no movement the next moment.

Frederick stared dumbfounded at the float, then looked at the other side of the river, and smelled the smell of gunpowder smoke in the air.

A pier of the stone bridge was blown up, and the deck fell into the water, making it impassable for a long time.

At this time, a group of people came running from the upper reaches, holding weapons in their hands, and wrapped their heads in turbans so that only their eyes were exposed. Obviously they were not good people.

The leader saw Frederick and the fishing brother, pointed at them and yelled, and immediately several people rushed over with machetes.

"[Local swearing]!" Brother Fisher jumped up when he heard the other party's voice, "It's Gazi dog!"

He picked up the saber beside him and rushed towards the opponent.

The landlord here also needs to fight with the lord, not to mention that my brother entangled those people all at once, his servants can also help beat the sap by the side.

Frederick frowned. The Ghazi Empire and the Kush Kingdom are now in the period of accumulating strength before the next war. This time the bridge bombing must have been done by the people of the Ghazi Empire. I am afraid there is some conspiracy behind it.

Naturally, he would not stand idly by when his allies had something to do, and immediately joined the battle group.

Frederick went to untie the old brother's siege first, let him cover himself, and then rushed into the crowd.

These people sent by the Ghazi Empire were very skilled, and there were a few magicians, and the fireballs and ground thorns thrown out blocked Frederick.

The elder brother behind him roared, bypassed the past, and rushed to the front of those magicians regardless of the bloody cuts on his body.

Seeing this, the magician quickly backed away and opened the distance for his companion to defend, but the old man slammed past him.

Several people rushed over with swords in their hands, ready to attack from behind the elder brother, but the servant rushed forward and bought some time for the master with his body.

The old man was still a step away from the magicians, and suddenly he took out a revolver from his arms, and almost fired at the enemy's head.

Frederick was entangled, and several of his opponents were proficient in combined attacks, and the offensive and defensive coordination was in place, so that he was caught off guard and could only retreat and defend, without taking advantage of it.

He thought to himself, these people probably came to ambush in the reed field near the bridge head. If the people of the Kush Kingdom were attracted by the broken bridge when they came here, they would take the opportunity to rush out, and it is very likely that they will achieve considerable results.

At this time, the group had already surrounded him, and they were about to attack from behind, only to see a flash of lightning, and a halo of lightning swept around.

People in the Ghazi Empire didn't expect him to use magic, and they were caught off guard and paralyzed by electric shock.

Frederick didn't miss this opportunity, and cut down those few combined attacks first.

At this time, there was another rush of horseshoes. In addition to the cavalry of Port Porter's army, there were also royal unicorn cavalry who were guarding Queen Simmy.

The elder brother yelled a few times when he saw this, and they quickly joined the battle group and quickly resolved the battle.

Frederick thought to himself that there must be something important on the carriage that passed before the explosion just now. The other side judged that there would be pursuers, so they sent this group of people to ambush.

Some of the cavalrymen in Berthport recognized Frederick and told him what had happened in the city not long ago.

"What?" Frederick was taken aback, "The prince was stolen?"

The Ghazi Empire sent people to steal the prince of the Kush Kingdom, and there may be some big conspiracy behind it.

Not to mention the relationship between the two regimes, in terms of personal relationship, Mrs. Sophie put her daughter Susan next to Frederick many years ago. Anyone can understand what this operation means. This kind of relative is Can't escape.

Now that his nephew has been arrested, it is naturally impossible for Frederick to remain indifferent.

The pursuers here were looking for wood to repair the broken bridge, and many people crowded on the bridge.

Frederick glanced at another magician in the crowd who had heard him brag, and immediately shook his head.

This guy claims to be proficient in earth magic, but he didn't see him consciously using magic to make a passage at the broken bridge, and it would be good for a few scouts to go there.

Frederick went to the water's edge to pack his luggage, put a gun on the fishing rod, took out a set of silver-scale breastplate from the luggage and put it on, took all the weapons including the shield, a water bottle and a first-aid kit, Leave the rest of the luggage to the fishing brother for safekeeping.

"Are you going to catch up?" The old man jumped, he was bandaging the wound, and it started to bleed again.

Frederick nodded and said, "Yes, it will be hard to find if they clean up the traces later. Please keep my luggage for me."

After he finished speaking, he came to the river, and a water lily leaf with a diameter of three meters appeared in the river. After jumping on it, a clover appeared behind him.

As the clover turned, the water lilies headed across the river.
