Chapter 82 Attack

A glass of sake that looked colorless and tasteless was served to the table.

"Sir, the alcohol sold in our store has a very high alcohol content, so I suggest you take a small sip first to prevent discomfort."

Kallio waved his hand and asked the servant in the store to retreat.

joke!

I, Kallio, have been traveling in the Norman Empire for many years, and I have never tasted any kind of wine!

With a little curiosity, Kallio raised his glass like he usually does when drinking beer, and then drank it in one gulp.

When he first took the vodka into his mouth, he didn't feel any difference. He just felt it was extra refreshing. But just a moment later, he suddenly felt as if his tongue was being torn apart by daggers. Although he couldn't taste anything for a while, But it's hot.

From the base of the tongue to the throat, everything became burning, and it was so strong and pungent that it was as if he had just swallowed a piece of red-hot iron, burning the person until his face turned red.

"Cough cough~ cough~"

Kallio, who had never drunk such a high degree of distilled liquor, started coughing violently almost immediately.

For people like them, most of the wine, beer and other alcoholic drinks they usually drink do not exceed 10 degrees. Therefore, the vodka with a temperature of 50 degrees will naturally make them feel uncomfortable in every way as soon as they take their mouth.

In addition, Kallio did not listen to the servant's dissuasion and drank a big gulp. At this time, he felt that his throat was so dry that it was smoking.

"Water...ahem...water..."

The servant of the shop hadn't gone far in the first place, so when he saw Kallio coughing repeatedly, he rushed over almost immediately.

In these days, there are not only guests like Carlio. They all think that they have drunk all kinds of wine, so they are not afraid of so-called spirits. However, after one sip, they are completely overwhelmed by this high concentration. The spirits were put away obediently.

It took Kallio a while to come back to his senses, and he stared blankly at the glass of wine in front of him.

After taking the first sip, Kallio felt like he was about to be poisoned, but when he calmed down and savored it carefully, he found it had a sweetness that ordinary wine does not have.

No wonder……

It's called a strong drink!

Since this vodka is so unique, what about the more expensive whiskey?

With full expectation, Kallio ordered a bottle of whiskey.

But this time, he was much smarter and would no longer be as bored as before.

Kallio took a small sip and felt a slightly spicy feeling when the tip of his tongue touched the wine.

As Calio took a sip of whiskey into his mouth, he seemed to taste a bit of the aged oak flavor in the whiskey, and behind this flavor there was also a trace of flame-roasted carbon. The taste and sweetness of wheat, although it is extremely strong in the mouth, it is full of flavor after drinking.

And after Kallio drank two glasses of strong wine, he felt his stomach was burning, and his whole body felt warm.

Kallio felt a little dizzy, and in a daze, he seemed to recall his previous experience again...

The savings he had gained after a life of running around... were actually thrown away by himself in St. Lawrence...

"Continued Cup……"

Kallio slapped the wallet tied around his waist on the table. The strong whiskey seemed to make him temporarily forget his previous worries and anxiety, allowing him to get a moment of respite and tranquility on this continent.

According to Kallio,

Idar…

It is indeed a place full of miracles...

When Kallio was drunk and dizzy in the tavern, all the important officials of the Idar territory gathered together again in the lord's castle.

But what was different this time was that almost everyone, including Bruno, had a solemn look on their face.

The Cape Saltworks was attacked by pirates!

When the news came, the entire Idar Territory became restless.

The Cape Saltworks can be said to be the top priority of the entire Idar Territory!

Nowadays, the seawater sun-salting industry in Cape Salt Farm can be regarded as one of the most important economic pillars related to the development of Idar Territory.

Idarling can earn stable profits of thousands of gold coins every year from the salt business, and the amount of this profit is still growing steadily with the expansion of the Cape Salt Farm.

Therefore, upon hearing that the Cape Saltworks had been attacked by pirates, almost everyone present became nervous instantly.

After all, the construction of the Namur Fortress and the paving of roads in Idar did not require the support of huge amounts of money.

The Cape Saltworks plays an extremely important role in this.

It can even be said that if there is a problem with the Cape Saltworks, the construction of roads within the Namur Fortress and Idar Territory will definitely be greatly affected.

Nowadays, although the construction of Idar Avenue connecting Mann Fortress and Idar City has been completed, there are still several roads that need to be constructed urgently. UU reading www. uukanshu.net

This is a major event related to the development progress of the entire Idar Territory!

However, as a blessing among misfortunes, Idar Territory did not suffer much losses in this attack.

This is also thanks to Bruno, who previously set up a garrison at the Cape Saltworks to protect the saltworks.

Although these original saltworks guards have been reorganized into members of the Anti-Smuggling Bureau, out of concern for the Cape Saltworks, Old Ford did not reduce the number of troops stationed at the Cape Saltworks.

This also meant that the pirates did not take advantage of this sudden attack.

As for the Idar Territory, eight serfs and six soldiers were lost in the chaos. In addition, more than a dozen soldiers were injured.

Even in the Battle of Glen Highlands, where hundreds of people participated, only three soldiers on Idar's side died!

Therefore, this attack on the Cape Saltworks can be regarded as the biggest loss Bruno has suffered since his journey!

You have been provoked by pirates right at your doorstep!

"Who can tell me why there are pirates in Idar Territory?" Bruno said in a deep voice.

After all, in the original memory, the Idar Territory had never been plundered by pirates, which led Bruno to relax his vigilance about the ocean.

Think about it, if this time the pirates plundered not the Cape Saltworks with its garrison, but the fishing port wharf with almost zero defense force, what kind of losses would the Idar Territory suffer!

If these pirates take a longer view and follow the Idar River to the west, they can directly hit the city of Idar!

There was such a huge omission in the Idar Territory's defense system, which undoubtedly frightened Bruno.
