Chapter 1856: Guerrilla Warfare on the Western Front (III.)

"'Silence' and 'Sonic Boom' also have special uses, if there is a spellcaster among the enemies on the other side of the river, who is chanting a spell at the moment, intending to attack us with magic, I can shoot a bullet with 'Silence' or 'Sonic Boom' attached to him, even if it can't kill them with one hit, at least interrupt the opponent's spell casting."

"Daylight allows my rifle to act as a torch in the dark, Scorching Radiance is a backup attack when the bullets run out, and the last Wind Wall ......" Peter smiled and blinked, "If the enemy on the opposite side has a bow or rifle, I can summon a 'Wall of Wind' when the enemy is counterattacking with a ranged weapon, blowing away arrows or bullets fired from the opposite side, protecting myself and my companions." ”

Lena listened to Peter's many special uses of the "Rifle Staff", and had to be deeply admired, and gave him a thumbs up: "Peter, you kid is really a clever ghost!" ”

……

On the east bank of the Turbidity River, Colonel Mendelssohn, deputy commander of the 1st Disciplinary Brigade, had a gloomy face, and his body was glowing with magical aura, ignoring the gunfire one after another, and strode towards the river bank.

The ambush from the east bank of the Turbid River caused confusion among the Imperial forces on the west bank, and within two minutes of the gunfire, nearly 100 sappers and 14 knight attendants were lost. What made Colonel Mendelssohn most angry was that six genuine "Punishment Knights" were also shot and wounded, and they fell into the river and did not know whether they would die or die. He didn't care about the casualties of the civilian-born sappers, but every knight came from a noble family of the Empire, and was a pillar of the army and the state, and Mendelssohn was both angry and heartbroken when he died in a very cohesive way.

After all, the 1st Disciplinary Brigade was an elite unit trained by Major General Palatina, and after the panic at the beginning of the shooting, it quickly calmed down and lay down on the snow one after another, crawling to find cover and dodge bullets from across the river.

Mendelssohn glanced contemptuously at the crawling knights of punishment, feeling ashamed of their indecent actions, even if it was to save their lives, the dignified knights should not have done such acts that undermined their dignity and status.

I heard that this is all the so-called "tactical move" that Palatina taught by her words and deeds? Mendelssohn let out a contemptuous snort from his nostrils. He was a junior officer of the Young Zhuang faction who was single-handedly promoted by General Engel, and was only recently transferred by General Engel himself to the 1st Disciplinary Brigade as Palatina's deputy. Mendelssohn was well aware of General Engel's real intentions in making this transfer, and from the first day he took office, he looked down on his female superior—if it weren't for a father who was a field marshal, how would she be a female officer and lead the 1st Disciplinary Brigade with a glorious tradition? And who is qualified to be his Mendelssohn's boss and dictate to him?

Out of dissatisfaction with Palatina, Mendelssohn also looked down on the knights she had trained. With his hands in the pockets of his coat, he strode across the battlefield where bullets and bullets roared, turning a blind eye to the punitive knights around him who were prostrate on the ground to avoid attacks, and silently criticizing this group of lewd and cowardly fellows with his fearless party—if they still had the slightest sense of knightly honor, they should be ashamed!

Colonel Mendelssohn's act of showing off his courage made himself a conspicuous target in the snow, and soon attracted the attention of the ambushers in the pine forest opposite, and a dense barrage of bullets came towards him. Mendel's face did not change, he did not dodge, and the whistling bullets were blocked by the double magic enchantment composed of the "Piety Shield" and the "Entropy Light Shield", and they were deflected one after another, passing by the level 8 "Priest Pero" and level 6 "Knight of Punishment".

Colonel Mendelssohn stopped by the river, looked in the direction where the gunshots were coming from, and then took a crystal ball from his coat pocket and used his magic to "check the situation in the pine forest."

The crystal ball glowed with hazy light and shadow, and quickly became clear, revealing all the Far Eastern guerrillas lurking in the forest.

Colonel Mendelssohn's face was expressionless, and he held up the crystal ball with one hand and estimated that there were only forty or fifty ambushers hiding in the pine forest, and each of them had a "Far Eastern Type 1624 Air Rifle" called the "Wind Lance".

Colonel Mendelssohn sneered, put away the crystal ball, raised his hand and snapped his fingers. An Imperial officer wearing a captain's epaulette came up briskly and saluted him.

"Mr. Colonel, what do you command?"

"Captain Goering, gather your company of vultures and cavalry, bring plenty of incendiary bombs, fly across the river at once, set fire to the pine forest opposite, and drive out all the Far Eastern militiamen hiding in the woods and fire cold guns!"

"Yes!" Captain Goering, commander of the Eagle Horse Cavalry Company of the 1st Punishment Brigade, immediately turned and galloped to his own vulture, turned on his horse, raised his hand and fired a signal flare, beckoning his cavalry to take off into the air and fly towards the pine forest across the river.

……

"Stupid Imperial devil, you really fell for it!" In the pine forest, Lena used the "Eagle Eye Technique" to notice that the enemy vulture cavalry was flying over for the first time, a sly smile appeared on the corner of her lips, and she quickly took out the high-grade communication stone to give Aurora a signal, and then turned back to Nikolai and said, "The vulture horse cavalry of the imperial devil is coming, and they will definitely set fire to the forest later, take our people, and run to the mountain quickly!" ”

Nikolai also noticed a large flock of vulture horses flying from across the river, with barrel-shaped objects mounted on both sides of the saddle, clearly bombs! Listening to Lena's warning, she immediately gave the pre-agreed signal to retreat, and all the guerrillas put away their rifles, pulled their legs and ran wildly up the mountain!

In just a few minutes, the Imperial Eagle Cavalry Company reached the sky above the pine forest, and at the command of Captain Goering, the cavalry under his command successively swung their swords to cut the bundles and drop barrel bombs filled with "fiery glue" and "thunder stones". Dozens of round wooden barrels tumbled and fell, smashed on the snow, and immediately exploded violently, erupting into a flood of fire, which instantly ignited the surrounding trees, turned the pine forest into a sea of fire, and the melting snow formed a dense fog that steamed up.

Captain Goering cast a spell and caused a gust of wind to blow away the mist above the pine forest, and when he leaned down to take a closer look, he couldn't help but frown when he noticed that there was no running figure in the woods.

"Captain, look over there—" The deputy company commander came to Goering's side and raised his hand to the snow-covered mountain collar above the pine forest, where a group of dark figures could be seen struggling on the steep mountain road.
