When the Jaeger Regiment launched an attack on Black Forest Town along the river, the Legal Committee team supporting from the direction of Black Forest Castle also withstood the roar and fury of Kalfan's heavy machine guns. The condition of these caster teams was even worse than
The coastal defenses were much worse, because they were shot while marching. In this case, the mages had no time to build suitable bunkers for themselves, let alone organize an effective counterattack.
In a short period of time, they couldn't even figure out how many attackers there were, and how many guns there were that kept pouring deadly bullets at them...
While the casters of the Legal Committee were still busy avoiding the overwhelming rain of bullets, the coastal defense line of Black Forest Town was already in a more difficult situation.
The assault launched by the Iris Guards indeed helped open a gap for the Black Forest Infantry Regiment as the defender, but it also cost them an irreparable huge price. These former royal guards faced several enemies at the same time.
It also looked very weak when it was firing concentrated fire from the Kalfan heavy machine gun.
Although the small mysteries and multiple protective rituals on their bodies can eliminate the damage caused by most bullets, the continuous interference and impact caused by the Kalfan heavy machine gun makes it difficult for them to move, and because of what the Jaeger Regiment has done before
To be careful and prepared, almost all heavy machine gun teams did not use conventional bullet belts, but instead used special ammunition with greater power and higher magic crystal content.
They are expensive to make, and there is no way to mass-produce them on a large scale like ordinary bullets, so each heavy machine gun team is equipped with a very limited number.
But if these bullets are exchanged for the elites that the Delan people are proud of, it is extremely cost-effective.
In this round of bloody assaults launched by the Iris Guards, the Chasseur Regiment also suffered certain losses, especially the assault team that tried to seize the bridge before. It can be said that the entire army was wiped out, but the price paid by the Delans
Just as expensive.
The death of every Iris guard symbolized the waste of a large amount of sophisticated equipment and expensive alchemical potions. In just ten minutes, these elites loyal to the Royal Family of Delan could only retreat along the bridge in a broken state.
came back, and in the process, two more Iris guards died in extremely tragic ways - the initiator was the young Walter mage. The magic or weapons he used were so weird that once
If it hits, it can directly destroy the human body and the secret ritual together.
The principle of the "Mage Marksman Group" is very simple, that is, using the larger number of mage apprentices who are at a disadvantage in casting spells to complement the firepower and range with new rifles, they may not be as good as other Walters in terms of charge and battle line advancement.
They are regular soldiers, but their existence can make up for the disadvantages of the Kalfan heavy machine gun in mobility and range exposed under the current conditions.
…
Therefore, after the plateau countries combined innovations with steam technology and magic, the war scholars on the plains also took an extremely important step.
With the Kalfan heavy machine guns fully in place, the Chasseur Regiment had formed a comprehensive fire suppression against the enemy's defense line. Immediately afterwards, a new assault team began to board the bridge and began to advance towards the other side.
That is a signal that the bridge has been successfully breached.
Xiuge nodded towards him and took the cigarette. He used his magic power to pinch out a handful of flames and lit the cigarette for the other party and himself.
Give each soldier stronger combat capabilities, allowing them to threaten the opponent's caster from a safer distance, using cheap bullets in exchange for the opponent's vitality...
"We should be the first to occupy the sky!"
In casting spells and shooting again and again, all the combat-related experiences Xiuge had learned before were fully verified, and the memories that once belonged to other individual lives became vivid and clear. There were a few
For a moment, Xiuge even felt that he couldn't tell where he was.
As more assault teams crossed the bridge and successfully stepped onto the other side, the Kalfan heavy machine guns that had advanced to the river bank finally gradually stopped.
For the 5th Chasseur Regiment, this is destined to be a huge victory.
Casualties occur every moment, and the situation on the battlefield is constantly changing.
In past wars, cavalry regiments, whether on plateaus or plains, often chose to have the cavalry carry both cold weapons for close combat and crystal muskets for long-range shooting. Because of the reloading problem of crystal muskets,
These cavalry often launch a frontal assault after a round of shooting at the enemy, relying on their strong armor and the magic secrets that move with the cavalry regiment to directly tear apart the enemy's line and kill those soldiers with weak armor.
After entering this stage, the battle begins to become cruel and boring.
Facing the advance of Walter's army, these special magic balloons came directly over the battlefield, and then they showed their terrifying side.
At the same time, the assault team that boarded the bridge next to it has also successfully reached the other side, and the valley-level mage Krautz in the Chasseur Regiment is among them. This man is experienced and has deep knowledge in necromancy.
The accomplished military mage was like the messenger of death. With the construction of the magic pattern, a magic bunker set up near the bridge was immediately shrouded in a deadly magical mist. In the bunker, those Delan soldiers who were relying on bunkers to resist and shoot were on the spot.
Suffocated by the thick fog, their vitality was also lost, and their bodies became fragile and shriveled.
As for the mixed cavalry regiment of the Kingdom of Walter, it was adapted from the past royal light cavalry and heavy cavalry regiments.
While retaining the mobility and frontal charge capabilities of the cavalry regiment, the Votel military adjusted the configuration of the cavalry armor and harness, and also equipped these cavalrymen with new revolver rifles. In addition, a
A lightweight alchemical bomb that can be fired directly from a revolver rifle has also begun to be put into experimental use.
As a behemoth that cooperates closely with Merlinle and the Legal Committee and is sitting on rich magic resources, the Kingdom of Deland has also made new attempts and responses in the face of this new era of war. When the Votel Cavalry Regiment
When they began to gallop on the plains, they were surprised to find that many magic balloons were floating behind the defense line of the Kingdom of Delan.
At the same time, some scholars in the Kingdom of Delan believe that the blockade on steam technology should end immediately - only by embracing this new technology and promoting their combination with magic can breakthroughs in different fields be achieved. Of course,
, this view is not so easily recognized within the Kingdom of Deland and the Legal Committee, but for the military and alchemy workshops of the Kingdom of Deland, the new revolver rifles captured on the battlefield are also
It has provided them with some important new ideas.
A dozen? Dozens? Or almost a hundred?
He had no way to be sure.
As the smoke drifted away, Xiuge's somewhat disordered thinking and restless nerves finally calmed down a little. He raised his head and saw several different magic signals rising in the sky, two of which appeared dim.
Blue, this means that two bridges were forcibly destroyed by the Teresans.
In each pod, there are light crystallized cannons that were trial-produced by the Kingdom of Deland in a short period of time - they are lighter and easier to transport. Although the crystallized cannon shells used are not comparable to traditional crystallized cannons, they are
Air superiority allows them to bombard key ground forces more easily and more accurately.
The medical soldiers and alchemical doctors responsible for battlefield rescue have already begun operations. Under the protection of magic rituals, they have begun to continuously search for the wounded and bring them back to the relatively safe rear, where these wounded will receive rescue and care.
treat.
At this moment, two red magic signals floated into the air one after another at the upper and lower reaches of the river.
It is larger in size and equipped with a closed pod.
Ideas such as these passed the brutal battlefield test in this raid.
The battle is still going on.
After withstanding the attack from the sky, the generals, marshals and scholars in the Plateau Kingdom also turned their attention to this new field. The large steam airships flying between the cities of the Kingdom of Votel were the first to
Time has become the focus of people's attention. A considerable number of scholars and alchemy craftsmen believe that this large-scale transportation vehicle can become an epoch-making war machine after reasonable transformation.
In this large-scale offensive, many new regiments formed by the Kingdom of Walter were put into the battlefield, including several mixed cavalry regiments of the Guards named after the "Augustine" royal family, as well as
Multiple mage archer groups named after the "Plateau Council".
This was what Commander Delan, who was in charge of the "Balloon Tactics", said after witnessing the benefits brought by this new weapon. This sentence was quickly recorded by reporters accompanying the army and published in the newspaper of the Kingdom of Delan.
.
How to seize the initiative on the battlefield when magic resources are relatively scarce and the number of mages is at a disadvantage has been a problem that the Kingdom of Walter Kingdom's military has focused on in recent years. The emergence of new types of ordnance has opened a gap for them.
When these briefings were successfully sent to the Fifth Chasseur Regiment through the magic arcana and were seen by Shuge, it was already the fourth day after the Black Forest Raid.
Shuge did not exhaust all the ammunition of his Hound's Fang in one breath. After killing three Iris guards using the same method, he began to resume his original duties and cover the Kalfans who were pushing out from the forest.
Heavy machine guns poured fire towards the positions on the other side.
However, Votel's army was not the only one that underwent major changes due to the war.
War has rightfully triggered a double explosion in human technology and vision.
Because the explosion caused by the powerful crystal ammunition will always blow up the enemy being shot into indistinguishable pieces, and the destructive magic he uses from time to time can easily turn the enemy into miserable and mutilated corpses.
These results are not easy to calculate.
Someone handed a cigarette from the side. Xiuge turned around to look, and saw that it was the operator of a Kalfan heavy machine gun next to him. His face was wet and slightly red. That was because he had been operating the heavy machine gun for a long time.
The result of being stimulated by the water vapor emitted from the "magic water cooling system".
They are different from ordinary artillery observation balloons.
Although the Black Forest Infantry Regiment's coastal defense line has collapsed, during this period of time, the defense lines set up on the edge of and inside the town have also begun to be activated. What awaits the Fifth Chasseur Regiment next will be even more bloody.
Direct close combat and killing.
He can only confirm one thing, and that is that as time goes by, the number of people he has killed with his own hands is constantly increasing.
Both evolved from old-era tactics.
Now, the Votel military has assigned some new tasks to the newly formed cavalry regiments.
After shooting another powerful crystal bullet, the revolver rifle in Shuge's hand once again reached the limit of endurance. Shuge glanced at the barrel that was constantly emitting magic mist, and threw it away casually.
His hands quickly formed and he picked up a revolver rifle that had fallen not far away and belonged to a fallen soldier. He leaned against the temporary bunker on the river bank and quickly checked the status of the firearm. After confirming that it was intact,
He loaded the bullet again, selected a "lucky guy" on the other side and pulled the trigger.
In order to ensure that the opening of multiple new fronts could be completed smoothly, on the second day after the Fifth Chasseur Regiment launched a raid on Black Forest Town, on the frontal battlefield of Salem City, Votel's army launched the first attack since the outbreak of the war.
A large-scale offensive.
This victory not only refers to the raid on Black Forest Town itself, but also refers to the verification of some new tactics.
In the past few days, the Black Forest Town and Black Forest Fort areas have been basically controlled by the 5th Chasseur Regiment. The Deland Infantry Regiment originally stationed here was forced to evacuate the town area, and most of them huddled in
They moved to a village some distance away from Black Forest Town and used it as a base to engage in continuous battles with the Chasseur Regiment. In some areas on the edge of the town, there were still sporadic Deland soldiers who chose to stick to it. They gave the Chasseur Regiment a
The activity brought a lot of trouble.
After successfully achieving the previous combat objectives, the 5th Chasseur Regiment began its busier work in full swing.
Personnel rest and medical treatment, build new fortifications and temporary hospitals, clear hidden dangers within the town, and send a considerable number of manpower to establish sentries in nearby areas. At the same time, it is also necessary to protect the roads connecting to the rear - they are all
An important channel prepared for follow-up reinforcements and strategic supply transportation.
In the early morning of the fifth day after Black Forest Town fell under the control of the Chasseur Regiment, the sky was torn apart by a deafening roar, and a large-scale magical bombardment from the Kingdom of Deland Artillery Regiment began.
