Chapter 772: The Iron Cannon with the Sword
When Feng Longde wielded the Teutonic two-handed sword to kill the witch cultists, Shionzuki Chuan and other Teutonic warriors also fought hard with the witch cultists in the roar of battle like a dragon and tiger: since there were only more than 40 witch cultists left, the Teutonic warriors basically beat a witch cultist in groups of two, and even many Teutonic warriors were only in charge of supervising the field, so that their companions and these witch cultists had a one-on-one heads-up, and if there was really a disadvantaged situation, they would intervene together and directly beat the guys who were a little tricky to deal with to deathγ Pen Γ fun Γ Pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ ο½ο½ο½ο½
It has to be said that after the reorganization and training of the Teutonic camp, although the fighting style of these Teutonic warriors completely retains the original characteristics, there are also many Teutonic characteristics, that is, the main control of the field, and the enemy as the object of actual combat training after thoroughly grasping the situation......
"Drink!" "Drink!" Dexterously dodging the almost desperate slash of the witch cultist's short sword, Shiogetsu Kawahei took the basic model of Lee Enfield's short rifle No.4, the Mk.I, and directly unleashed a stab, the sharp bayonet tip pierced the witch cultist's heart, which was completely unprotected by any armor, and blood continued to flow out until the corpse fell to the ground.
"Poof!" Pulling the bayonet out of the corpse and wiping the blood from the tip of the bayonet on the corpse's black robes, Shiozukigawa twisted his shoulders and made a rattling sound of his shoulder bones, "Are there any other heretics who haven't been resolved?"
"Except for the three squad leaders, all of them are exterminated, Captain Flag. "A Teutonic warrior replied after giving a standard Teutonic salute to Shiogetsu River, his chest covered in a large area of blood stains, but judging from the current state of the master, the source of the blood stains was clearly the witch cultists who had turned into corpses." The three squad leaders were about to be killed, but as we were about to do so, His Majesty saw them, and ordered us not to kill them, but to capture them alive, and now they are bound up and waiting for His Majesty's disposal. β
"That's good. Shiontsukigawa nodded and continued to ask, "What about our casualties?"
"No one died, except for the two brothers who were directly hit by the fireballs of these heretics on the way to the charge, one of them had broken several ribs and was now being treated and rescued by the Lich Mage Lords, and the other was a little sore muscle, and it was okay to rest for a while. The Teutonic warrior replied, his tone sounding a little emotional, "If it weren't for His Majesty's many arrangements and the cover of the Lich Mages and the civilian crossbowmen who accompanied us, we would definitely have lost our brothers in this battle, and the fireball magic of those heretics without the magic protection of the blessing of the event is a nightmare." β
"Again, without these factors, we alone cannot wipe them out without paying the price of death and injury. Shiozukigawa nodded solemnly in agreement, then frowned again, looked at the Teutonic warrior in front of him and said a little helplessly: "Yokoyama, which witch cultist's head did you cut off with a katana? Don't tell me you don't, there is so much blood on your chest, it is impossible to get so much if you don't behead it, unless you plan to say that you bleed the other party and dyed your heart on your own armor." β
"Hehe, Captain Flag, it looks like I'll never be able to hide it from you. The Teutonic warrior known as Yokoyama laughed a few times, and he couldn't hear any guilt at all, "The iron cannon with the sword is not as easy to use as the ten-character gun or the short gun, and I am more used to killing enemies with the family swordsmanship I have practiced since I was a child, so I ...... it."
"So you slashed the heads of three heretics with a katana and splattered your chest with blood. Shiozukigawa snorted, although Yokoyama is a very good samurai, but his psychology seems to have been stimulated a little, so he will be relatively brutal in battle, but in daily life, he is the opposite of a very polite and gentle guy, "Next time, pay attention to the influence, especially don't let His Majesty the King see your crazy appearance, and give me some restraint, I don't want your quirks to implicate the entire flag team, even if His Majesty the King doesn't seem to have any prejudices about this kind of behavior." β
"Understood, Lord...... Captain Banner!" Yokoyama nodded in reply, and then stepped aside to chat with his brothers, and at this time the crossbowmen also put away their heavy pulley steel crossbows and entered the glade, and began to clean up the battlefield.
For Teutonic samurai such as Shiogetsugawa, the basic model of the Lee Enfield short rifle No.4 with bayonets, the Mk.I, was not as easy to use as imagined: compared to Japanese-style long-handled weapons such as the Tomonji gun, short gun, and naginata, which had complete systematic combat skills, the bayonet-mounted Lee Anderson. The basic model of the Enfield short rifle No.4, the Mk.I, was more difficult to get started, and even though Von Rond found many veterans of the last units of the Third Reich through Adolf to teach them how to use bayonets in hand-to-hand combat, it was not of much use - the German army in World War II did not study the bayonet as much as the Soviet and Japanese armies, and they were more accustomed to picking up sapper shovels...... Therefore, these Teutonic warriors used the basic model of the bayonet-equipped Lee Enfield short rifle No.4, the Mk.I, for hand-to-hand combat, which was only convenient for them to quickly enter melee mode after shooting, rather than taking time to switch to other weapons, and if they did have time to switch weapons, they would be like the Teutonic warrior known as Yokoyama and replaced with other more competent guys to kill the enemy.
In the language of Teutonic samurai such as Shiongetsugawa, the bayonet was undoubtedly called a sword, and hand-to-hand combat using the Mk.I, the basic model of the Lee Enfield short rifle No.4 with a bayonet, was naturally called swordfighting...... Sometimes it has to be said that history will always have amazing coincidences, which is the most important reason why history is always so fascinating to understand, study and imagine.
From the time Von Ronder led the Teutonic warriors such as Shiongetsu to charge the Witch Cultists to the end of the battle, the whole process lasted less than five minutes, but in contrast, the guerrilla raids carried out by Von Ronder and Demon Hunters such as Gelot in the early stage and the time it took to mobilize the various Teutonic troops within the Soul Nexus were very large...... But then again, if it weren't for these seemingly time-wasting arrangements, it would have been impossible for Feng Longde and Gailot and a few others to wipe out all of this group of witch cultists and successfully save the pair of maid sisters during this time, not to mention that there were almost no casualties, which shows the importance of pre-battle planning and a series of preparations.
"Hurry up and get the corpses of these guys and everything else that can be used as loot as fast as possible to the magical Opel lightning truck you are on, and then assemble the team and quickly enter the next area under the guidance of the lich mage who is traveling with you. After wiping the blood stained on the Teutonic two-handed greatsword from the white snow on the ground, Feng Longde withdrew the Teutonic two-handed greatsword into the steel scabbard, reinserted it diagonally into the bag on the side of the undead warhorse, and moved his shoulders a few times and shouted to the crossbowmen who were carrying the corpses and scattered weapons around him: "Although these black-robed guys don't have anything of value on them, I can ask the chief treasurer to give you a monetary reward of corresponding value on time to compensate for your loot losses!"
"Long live the Immortal King!" Hearing how understanding their own Immortal King was, the crossbowmen erupted in earth-shattering cheers - for these outside human mercenaries, fighting for the Teutonic camp is precisely for their own better and more comfortable life, and the most essential of this is sufficient money and guaranteed safety, both of which can be provided to them, and they will naturally work hard and fight more bravely, as well as support the existence of the Teutonic camp.
"Then hurry up and get to work, don't grind, unless you plan to enjoy the snow and look at the scenery in today's ghost weather where the wind is no different from a scraper, otherwise hurry up and go to clean up the battlefield, there are three other battlefields that need your support and cleaning, give me a fucking move!" Feng Longde shouted with a smile, and the crossbowmen also shouted and continued to pick up things on the ground covered with blood and snow, showing obvious or inconspicuous smiles and quickly cleaning up the battlefield.
"Hey, if you don't break the benefits and crumple them, you feel like you're running out of motivation, and it's really a mercenary, and you don't see a rabbit or an eagle. With a grin, Feng Longde walked in front of Shioyuechuan and the other Teutonic warriors, took off his demon ring-winged barrel helmet, revealing his rough face with hard lines, "How's the damage?"
"Of the few who died, Your Majesty, only two were injured, but judging by the timely treatment given to them by the Lich Mage who accompanied them, he will surely be fully recovered by the next day of dawn (Sunday in Japanese). Yan Yuechuan also took off his helmet, the only thing that changed was that he gave Feng Longde a standard Teutonic salute before opening his mouth to answer, "It's just that Your Majesty the King...... The iron cannon with the sword is not easy to use, and it is not as flexible as the ten-word gun or short gun in close combat, and the weight of the sword at the muzzle of the iron cannon will also reduce our aiming accuracy when firing, can it be improved or replaced with other equipment?"
"Don't think about this, I was the person in charge of planning how to configure the corresponding weapons for you in the first place, these guns were originally issued to you to deal with some enemies that you can't deal with with cold weapons or can't fight without casualties, for example, these heretics today, if you don't have the basic model Mk.I of the Lee Enfield Short Rifle No.4 equipped with bayonets and blessed with protective magic, you will have to die at least half of them in the charge just now. Feng Longde shook his head, originally the main combat weapon of these Teutonic warriors was not modern firearms, and the equipment was not a modern firearm. The basic model of the Enfield short rifle No.4, the Mk.I, is to take into account the need to copy this kind of guy to fight when necessary, after all, they are trained as hoplite assault infantry and hoplite rangers, how can they do it without using a variety of weapons, their combat mission can be said to be very similar to the Teutonic tomahawk rangers led by Lisa, except that the Teutonic tomahawk rangers are part of the Teutonic Imperial Legion, and the Teutonic warriors are divided into the Teutonic Knights," Get used to these weapons as quickly as possible, the Teutonic Arsenal is currently unable to create a suitable rifle specifically for you, this British-made rifle is better suited for hand-to-hand combat than the Mauser 98K rifle used by the Boghall riflemen. β
"Yes, Your Majesty. "Shionzukikawa immediately gave a Teutonic salute and replied, although the basic model of the Lee Enfield short rifle No.4 with the bayonet Mk.I can be said to be the most inappropriate weapon they have ever used, but after all, it is also a powerful iron cannon, compared to the iron cannons they originally had, the power is simply not the same, it is easier to aim, it is easier to fire, the projectile will not float around, it is not particularly good to pick it up and hit people, but it is much better than directly treating the iron cannon as an iron pimple blunt weapon," Do you have any other orders that you need to give us?
"You rest in place for ten minutes, the two wounded Teutonic warriors return with the Magical Opel Lightning Truck loaded with loot and supplies, and then you go to support the captain of the Boghall Riflemen Company, who have now completely suppressed another group of heretics, but in order to ensure that there are no unnecessary losses and cannot be wiped out immediately, so you will lead the Teutonic warriors and the accompanying lich mages to rush over as soon as possible. Feng Longde raised his head slightly and said, he arranged this way to receive a relevant report from the Lich Mage accompanying the Boghall Riflemen Company within the Soul Connection, which were equipped with Mauser 98K rifles, The Burghall riflemen who removed the MG42 general purpose machine gun from the Magic SD.KFZ.251 Half-Track Light Armored Vehicle with the STG44 assault rifle had already eliminated the vast majority of the heretics, but in order to ensure that there was sufficient ammunition to protect themselves and that the few remaining heretics were hiding in a dead spot and could not move, other Teutonic troops were needed to come and help.
Compared to other Teutonic units, the fighting style of the Boghhall riflemen is closer to that of modern infantry, except that they are also able to fight in close combat while wearing plate chain mail and fan shields, but the lack of sufficient ammunition will cause them to lose a considerable amount of combat effectiveness, so they need the support of heavy assault infantry and heavy rangers such as the Teutonic warriors to ensure that they can completely destroy the enemy without too many unnecessary casualties.
"It seems that in the future, it is necessary to provide more ammunition to the Boghall rifle company, or continue to strengthen their melee combat training, or also need to be equipped with enough lich mages in wartime, otherwise it will be very tricky to fight once they face the hostility of mastering even basic magic......" Looking at the Teutonic warriors who began to sit down on the spot to rest and chat, Feng Longde grinned, put on the demonic ring-winged barrel helmet and began to walk in the direction he came, "The current stage of work is over...... I'm going to see Gallot and their side, and I don't know where that pair of maid sisters came from, and they can make the two hundred heretics chase after them, it can't be because they castrated their master......"
