Chapter 272: The Crushing of the Times

In fact, the rifle tactics were only used once on a large scale in Middle-earth, and on the battlefield at that time, the role of the platoon gun was not to change the situation of the war, after all, the existence of countless huge mammoths and massive trebuchets made it difficult for the platoon gun to play the role he should play, but now it is different, because the beastmen on the opposite side do not have the huge mammoth that can resist the platoon gun.

The Beastmen simply thought that a dense formation could achieve a more powerful charge bonus, in fact, if it was in the jungle, with a large number of trees as obstacles, their charge mode was really useful, but now it is not possible, in the open land, the only thing the Beastmen can rely on is their flesh and blood with almost no protection.

"Fire!"

Bang~~~

The dense muskets spewed out the fireworks of death, the thick caliber and internal lines made the trajectory smooth and fast, they were like an invisible wave, directly rushing the rushing beastmen to a piece, rushing to kill the beastmen in the front directly like the wheat that had been cut down, they fell down one after another, the beastmen who were slightly behind couldn't believe it, they didn't see the muskets, but in their impressions, the muskets were just more powerful bows and arrows, after all, the wood spirits had been fighting with them for a lot of time with muskets.

But on the opposite side, the muskets were used in such a dense arrangement, and the power shown was unimaginable, although the beastmen were afraid in their hearts, they still maintained a charging posture, and on the side of the human race, because of the high degree of firearms, the entire position was the roar of continuous muskets and artillery, and the dense team was constantly sprayed with smoke, and the beastmen troops on the opposite side could not cross the barrage no matter how they impacted, and their blood quickly stained the original black and gray earth.

Caron was stunned by the scene in front of him, his heart was dripping blood, the current way of fighting was simply suicide, the beasts couldn't even rush in front of each other, and fell directly on the road of the charge, their corpses were stacked on top of each other, and soon piled up a hill, but no matter how this hill accumulated, it was completely impossible to advance even one step, which can no longer be called a battle, this is a one-sided slaughter.

The only difference between the beastmen and those waiting in line to be shot is that the people in line to be shot have to be escorted up by others, while the beastmen come up by themselves, and the two sides have a tacit understanding to carry out this massacre, one is responsible for killing, and the other is responsible for sending.

"Big Chief, either or let's retreat!"

A werewolf looked at the scene in front of him in fear, even the most bloodthirsty of them, at this time they did not have any desire to continue fighting, at this time, they only wanted to retreat, Caron, who had given the death order a few days ago, was completely out of temper at this time, he did not even implement the military law he said earlier, for this werewolf leader who threatened to retreat, Caron let it go.

The corpses of the beastmen are piling up higher and higher, so high that humans even need to mobilize artillery to blast the corpses away, this kind of battle to the death even the beastmen, have long been frightened, almost all of them are now charging forward with their eyes closed, and then dying one after another, and on the other hand, the human side has already been killed emotionally, how can this kind of slaughter not make their morale high?

This battle lasted for a whole morning, unwilling to defeat Caron sent his troops in a steady stream, and then was constantly shot to the ground, a morning's time, just a morning time, Caron brought out nearly 80,000 beastmen, directly killed more than 30,000, this is an extremely terrifying casualty, and what is even more terrifying is that in this case, the beastmen have not killed any human, that is to say, human beings have played an unbelievable casualty ratio, 30,000:0!!

The man who let the iron fight also collapse in this situation, and when Caron finally couldn't stand the imminent collapse and ordered to retreat, the sound of gunfire finally stopped, but the stopped gunfire did not make the beastmen happy at all, because on the opposite side, the knights, who had rested for a morning, raised their riding spears flat, like a wave, swept in.

The beastmen who were already beaten dizzy, couldn't even make any effective counterattack at all, and were directly stuck in the ground under the stout cavalry spear, and at this time, the dragon vulture knights in the sky finally began to dive and kill the enemy, they circled a low position, using the musket in their hands, one after another, the dragon vulture would also dive down from time to time, with their claws to eliminate so many unlucky beastmen, in this kind of fight a few times, the beastmen finally collapsed, they did not wait for Caron's possible retreat order, but decided to control their own destiny, powerful and savage beastmenAfter capitulating after trying Mordor's brutality a hundred years ago, today, a hundred years later, humanity has also shown them what is called the gap of an era.

It's not a battle, it's the crushing of an era!

...

The Terran army took advantage of the situation to chase and kill, and chased out more than fifty miles, if it wasn't for too many trees, they would be able to chase and kill a little more distance, but even if there were only fifty miles, they still killed the corpses of the beastmen all over the field, and the beastmen lost half of their living strength in this day's battle, which was a completely unacceptable loss for the beastmen, and the beastmen now completely lost the ability to attack externally In the next time, the beastmen can only be used as a force to guard, trying to protect their core area。

"From this moment on, an order will be issued to the outside world, and the Ash Swamp will become the third province of the empire, the Fog Ash Province, established!"

On top of the countless beastman corpses, Wang Zifeng issued his own order in high spirits, and the staff officers around him immediately recorded it, and used carrier pigeons to pass it to the rear, in just a few days, the human race from the actual start to the current complete defeat of the beastmen, in just a few days, and now, the gray swamp will no longer exist any military team that can pose a threat to humans, the gray swamp is officially incorporated into the imperial system.

The news that humans have conquered the Grey Swamp in a few days surprised many onlookers, and they have accelerated their speed, the battle between the dwarves and the black hand has become more bloody, the elves have increased their troops in the Inland Sea again, and the civil war in the Black Land, the heat has risen several steps directly, although they all know that it is wrong for them to do it now, but no one can afford the horror of defeat, the final victory of this battle must be based on the corpses of the other side, this is undoubtedly a thing, so they know that what they are doing now is wrong, but they can't stop。

The news of the Empire's reconquest of the Grey Swamp caused a stir in the country, and the people of every country did not want their country to have a larger land and richer resources? Now that they have the Grey Swamp, the people of the Empire naturally have more land that can make their lives better, and coupled with the patriotism that Lelouch spared no effort to promote, the Empire has become more and more united with the continuous expansion of its territory.

For this reason, Lelouch even decided to personally inspect the development of the Ash Swamp Colony, which is a treatment that the Central Province has never had, after all, the Central Province is technically the core territory of mankind, and the Ash Swamp is the land that the first human beings have once again opened up in the real sense, so Lelouch still decided to go in person, where to show his sovereignty, and for the selection of new species in the Ash Swamp, Lelouch also needs Lelouch to make the final layout, so no matter what, Lelouch has to go in person。

The news that the Emperor of the People is going to inspect the Gray Swamp cannot be kept secret, and the Emperor of the People leaves the safe place of heaven and goes to the Gray Swamp very close to Mordor, which is enough to make many people think of many things, this matter is even directly The battle within Mordor has stopped, and there seems to be a hint of a sign of joining forces again in a short time, but in response, Lelouch is also very domineering and directly decided to send 100,000 people to the border of Mordor, not only to protect his own safety, but also to show his muscles to the outside world, because from today onwards, human beings will officially take their own steps towards the first force in Middle-earthHumans who own three-sevenths of the land in Middle-earth are already equivalent to occupying nearly half of Middle-earth, and the remaining four-sevenths are all occupied by several other forces, and it is not at all like humans who have stable land.

As long as the human race really turns all these three lands into their core territory, then Lelouch will have the power to march to the Black Land, and at that time, Mordor must also have a huge loss in the civil war, as long as Mordor is solved, then Middle-earth will really be decided.

And after a week of preparation, Baicheng finally ushered in the moment of departure, this is the first time Lelouch went out of the far door, in the real sense of the far door, for this long journey, the empire sent a full 150,000 troops to escort, plus 50,000 in the gray swamp, a full 200,000 people for Lelouch to assist alone, of these 150,000 people, 100,000 of them will be used to defend against the possible attack of Mordor, and there are 50,000 people, is Lelouch's personal guard, this is a long journey, but also an inspection, but also an armed parade.

"This time we will send 100,000 garrisons, 40,000 Guardians, 10,000 Praetorian Guards, 500 Vulture Knights, 200 Steam Robots, of which 80,000 Garrisons and 20,000 Guardians will be separated from Your Majesty in Red Dragon City and go directly to the front line for defense, and eventually 20,000 Garrisons, 20,000 Guardians, and 10,000 Praetorian Guards will accompany you into the Gray Swamp. ”

Al recounted the escort plan, Lelouch is now for the empire, its importance is self-evident, no one can afford to lose Lelouch, so sending 150,000 people to escort Lelouch is really not an exaggeration, in fact, those leaders who are in the middle of a long distance and a private visit are impossible to exist, even if they go, the scale must not be lower than 5,000 people, this is still within their own sphere of influence, Lelouch is going to go to Mordor's nose, so 150,000 people are really not much。

Lelouch sat on the throne and nodded with satisfaction, because of the fusion with Kelgan, they shared their knowledge, Kelgan, as a demon dragon, the reserve of magical knowledge is extremely vast, coupled with the blood of the demon dragon's heart and the blood of the human emperor, so that Leluxiu's body has always emitted a faint white light, which makes him look like a god, especially after Lelouch has been studying magic for several years, the effect is even more outstanding.

In Lilith's words, Lelouch may not be a true god yet, but he has stepped into the level of a demigod, and his every move is filled with extraordinary charm and power.

"Well, okay, I'm still very relieved to have you to do things, this parade is extraordinary, we must show the majesty of our human race, we have to tell the whole of Middle-earth, we humans have the ability and confidence in the future, and do a good job of leading the way in Middle-earth. ”

...

The parade, which attracted the attention of the whole of Middle-earth, began his first steps in the midst of a jubilant white city.

The atmosphere of the city, countless huge towering buildings make this place like the god realm, the guards with muskets on their backs and shields and halberds are as tall and burly as those gods warriors described in the magic, these guards are all over the white city, and on both sides of the main road, countless people are constantly throwing flowers and pure water, in the center of their fanatical cheers, is a white figure riding on a white war horse, it seems to be affected by Lelouch's own light, even the white horse seems to be radiating light, the people's idea of deifying Lelouch has become a reality at this moment, Lelouch is really like a god。

Lelouch is surrounded by countless personal protection of the Holy Guard Knights, these Holy Guard Knights with the help of the Academy of Magic almost all reequipped with magic weapons and equipment, although it does not look heavy, but their weapons and equipment still have the power that people dare not look at directly, some places of the armor, even painted magic circles, and two hundred new Janissary steam robots, their size is tall, no worse than the trolls, but they have a powerful strength and defense that the trolls are completely incomparable, and the mechanical body makes them almost immune to any magic or energy attacks, they are complete physical warriors on the battlefield。

It's just that when they move, they look a little trembling because of their slender limbs and unstable steam power.

However, these are not the reasons for their combat effectiveness to be reduced, the current Praetorian Guards, in terms of combat effectiveness, can really be worthy of their title of Praetorian Guard, their current combat effectiveness is no longer weaker than the Mordor Guards who appeared on the battlefield, and even stronger.
