A cannonball drew a parabola over Seluda and landed in the town of Seluda, a loud explosion that woke all the Union defenders. The Imperial army officially launched an offensive on the town of Seluda.

The ferocious shelling lasted more than an hour, covering every corner of the town of Seluda.

Several soldiers who were still chatting outside the position suddenly looked up and saw a shining light falling from the sky, and before they could escape, they were blown up by a cannon and their flesh and blood were scattered. There were even energy cannons that exploded directly in the defenders' trenches, and several soldiers who had been hiding in the trenches did not escape the catastrophe.

On one street, more than a dozen soldiers were pushing a 150mm howitzer into the fortification, and the shells kept exploding near them, but they still did not give up on transferring the howitzer. Seeing this, several people who had ordered the evacuation of the soldiers in front of the fortifications immediately rushed forward to help. The howitzer was quickly pushed in front of the dugout, but it was only one step away, and dozens of shells instantly enveloped the fortifications.

The soldiers and supplies inside the fortifications were not in any danger, but outside the fortifications were unrecognizable. The corpses and the wreckage of the howitzers that had been blown up were scattered everywhere, and before they could be brought back, another wave of bombardment struck.

Under the bombardment of almost no dead ends, the Seluda defenders suffered heavy casualties and reduced their numbers by as much as 20%. However, with Calvin's preparation, the fortifications were well constructed, and many soldiers avoided more casualties by hiding in the fortifications in time.

However, under the enemy's bombardment, many heavy weapons that had not had time to be transferred were damaged, and some heavy artillery was blown to pieces before they could even be used, which undoubtedly greatly weakened the combat effectiveness of the defenders.

With Augustine's order, all the Imperial forces were dispatched.

Nearly 100 Imperial mechs attacked Seluda from all sides, and the reason why there were so many mechs was precisely because of the mecha division that Gustav had previously dispatched to the 36th Army.

Hundreds of mechs were ambushed before they could reach the town, and the anti-mecha mines triggered a series of explosions, and the Imperial mechs began to show losses. But the mechs didn't stop their charge, and despite the potentially deadly mines under their feet, they continued to charge towards Seluda at undiminished speed.

Soon, two Imperial mechs had already rushed into Seluda, and by this time the defenders on the walls had already withdrawn into the town. Neither mech scanned the circle but failed to spot a single Federation soldier. At this moment, a dark cannon was already aimed at the two mechs.

Rumble!

The 250mm energy cannon detonated in front of the two mechs, and the violent explosion knocked the two mechs to the ground.

Suddenly, there was a crowd of people on the ruins a few dozen meters away, and several grenade launchers were set up. The two Imperial mechs had just risen from the ground when they were greeted by several rockets. The two Imperial pilots immediately activated their energy shields, but they found that they were only left with a thin layer of energy shields.

Boom Boom Boom Boom ~~~

The two mechs were hit by rockets and were scrapped in an instant. The two Imperial mechs fell to the ground, and the fuselage was still emitting thick black smoke and crackling sounds.

Seeing that they had succeeded, more than a dozen Federation soldiers did not hesitate, raised their grenade launchers and ran back. But in the blink of an eye, it disappeared between several dilapidated buildings.

Not long after the two Imperial mechs were destroyed, several more Imperial mechs rushed up one after another. Although they were vigilant when they saw the two Imperial mechs that had just been attacked, after making sure that there was no one around to ambush, they boldly rushed inside.

The two [Hundred Battles] mechs held the energy machine cannons, and just ran forward at a distance of only a few tens of meters. An explosion completely enveloped the two mechas, and after the smoke passed, only the broken fuselages of the two mechs were scattered on the ground, and the legs of the mecha flew out of a distance of more than ten meters.

It turned out that the two mechs had touched the anti-mecha mines that were buried under the road.

This is happening all over the town of Seluda, where the Federated defenders are strategically holding back the mechs. Calvin used the blocking tactics to the fullest, and the Imperial mechs were menacing but were wiped out as soon as they stormed into Seluda.

The number of Imperial mech losses is rising, but Augustin still directs his mech troops to fight on the front lines. The deputy army commander Asa couldn't stand it anymore, "Army commander, although we still have the command to attack Seluda, but with such a huge consumption of personnel, any problems will not be something we can afford!" ”

"I know!" Augustine roared. He is now at the front headquarters, just a few kilometers from the town of Seluda. He was already able to clearly see the progress of the siege of the town of Seluda. Having sacrificed so many Imperial mechs, if you can't take the town of Seluda, then when Devit's troops come, what awaits you will be a court-martial.

"How's Captain Timos doing?" Augustin asked the communications soldier on the side.

"Report sir, I just received a report from the commander of the Timos regiment that the attack of the mecha regiment has been blocked, and the defenders in the town of Seluda are stubbornly resisting with the complex construction of houses."

"It's been two hours since the attack, but it hasn't yet reached the town of Seluda, and the goal of taking Seluda one day has become delusional." Augustin smiled self-deprecatingly, "Before dark, DeWitt's Twenty-seventh Army will take over the siege of Seluda. ”

Asa looked at Augustine, who was already pale, and didn't know what he should say more. This mission was not completed effectively, and it was naturally difficult for him to be held accountable as a deputy commander. Perhaps the most severe punishment awaits you in the Empire, right?

"The mech guards are on their way to Seluda with me!" Augustine suddenly gave an order, and everyone in the command was shocked.

"You're going to attack yourself?" Asa is incredible.

"I'm no longer a commander after tonight, but I have another identity now." Calvin paused, and then said, "That's the ace pilot of the Rovisa Empire, and I will use my blood to defend this incomparably glorious identity!" ”

Augustine's words reveal a deep attachment and determination, "I will die on the battlefield!" ”

"The Thirty-sixth Army will be handed over to you."

Augustin is with his company of mechguards, and they will enter from the west of the town of Seluda, where they will join Captain Timos and attack the town together. Watching the mighty [Royal Knight] lead a dozen Imperial mechs galloping away, Asa couldn't help but sigh, "Why... Why did the marshal want to force him to death? ”
