Volume 1 The Storm Chapter 25 The Long Time (Part II)
The snow was still falling, as if it was about to come to the end of the world, the end of time.
The steam chariots roared past, and the machine guns fired at all possible places where the enemy could be hidden, stirring up a cloud of dust and debris. The infantry followed the chariot and watched the windows of the houses around them.
Since the Middle-earth coalition forces evacuated most of the civilians in advance, the two sides had no scruples about fighting at this time, and there was a burst of strafing where they encountered suspected enemy firepower.
The armor-piercing firearms from the east pose a clear threat to the Steam Knights, and all the valuable Knight units can only be used as elite firefighting troops to support the steam armored trains in the city that are still running.
According to research reports from the rear, the armor-piercing guns of the East were mainly able to penetrate the armor of the steam-armored knights by mixing the projectiles mixed with the black water and the special gunpowder. These are supplemented with special alchemical substances, which are still being studied.
The support train soon came to the front. With the arrival of Red Mercury and spare parts, the Steam Armored Knights were finally able to re-enter the front line.
The train from the kingdom of Rothel also brought their pride, the Snow Wolf Knights. These snow wolf knight armors have a strong Rothschild character. Their craftsmen put practicality first, so they gave the driver a terrible experience.
Thick and somewhat rough mechanical structure, with the air of heavy industry, ugly but durable, and easy to repair and disassemble. The unsightly appearance brings with it a savage ferocity.
。
Amera was a captain of the newly formed Fire Gun Legion of the Cang Dynasty.
The firecracker army is one of the symbols of the innovation of the Cang Dynasty, even the Cang Dynasty, which lacks iron ore, has worked hard to form a huge firearm army.
With the addition of captured troops, the Cang Dynasty's Fire Gun Legion also has a bit of a modern troop appearance.
Amera's forces survived the attack on the Duchy of Teuton, but were not so lucky in this battle, as they encountered a Middle-earth coalition force on their way, and after a brief encounter, he was now the only one left in his ranks.
Amira, who was not very sentimental, unexpectedly felt extremely depressed, but had to suppress the discomfort in her heart in order to survive. He was hiding behind a broken wall, waiting for a Middle-earth coalition force to pass through. Although he was a military commander, he now had to fight alone, and the Cang Dynasty army at this time had no reserve force that could replenish his soldiers.
In order to gain a foothold in Middle-earth, Frankfork City must be attacked, and it is best to take it, or at least let the people of Middle-earth know the determination of the Cang Dynasty, at the cost of flesh and blood. As a result, the rate of attrition of the army has become extremely rapid, and under the policy of no cost, all forces will almost inevitably become undernumbered and cannot be replenished.
Lord Komodo said that if we want to gain a foothold in a foreign country, we need to show our bloody nature to the foreigners, make them afraid, and let them know that if we don't give the Cang Dynasty room to survive, then it will be a bloody war. And the purpose of such a reckless attack seems to be to gain a respite from the chips that can threaten Middle-earth, and with respite, the people can start their lives again, and the army can be formed again. Although Amera understood the literal meaning, he was not able to understand the deep cruelty without much education.
However, he understood that it was a necessary war, and even if it did not break out because of a misunderstanding between the two sides, war was inevitable. Just like a duel when a small tribe joins a large tribe, without a display of strength, you can't have a foothold. In the steppe, strength is everything. The same applies to the state, where a country has the right to speak.
When the Middle-earth coalition force passed through and walked away, he immediately got up and shuttled through the ruins. The ruins are a sharp weapon for the defenders, and this is a big advantage in the face of the Cang Dynasty soldiers who have no map.
However, after a few days of fighting, the Cang Dynasty soldiers became familiar with the street fighting of Middle-earth and became their weapon, using the ruins everywhere, they could sneak forward in small groups.
Using the reflection of the steam pipes, he constantly observed the situation around him.
In order to undermine the morale of the Cang Dynasty's troops, the Middle-earth coalition army arranged several sniper units, which also forced Amera to choose a cautious route of advance.
The current city of Frankfork is full of enemies and their own people, and no one knows if they will see their own people in the last moment, and when they chase after it, they fall into the enemy's position.
The steam armored locomotive violently toppled down the dilapidated house and moved on, and Amella had to immediately lie on the ground, feeling the source of the vibration far away from him.
The Cang Dynasty army seized unburned maps from some of the Middle-earth Allied Field Headquarters, and through several broken maps, the High Command temporarily pieced together the main appearance of Frankfork City.
However, the map had not yet had time to be distributed to the troops fighting in the streets, so Amera could only roughly confirm his location by attacking a few landmarks mentioned by the commander before the attack, and took out the mutilated maps and compasses he had captured to identify the direction.
At that moment, he heard an unusual movement approaching him, and Amera immediately entered the ruins of the house and leaned against the wall.
Three coalition soldiers appeared across the road, guns raised, cautiously advancing, the unusual sound of their boots stepping on the rubble.
He weighed it and found that he had no hope of annihilating them, so he planned to let them go. Immediately break through the wall, quietly advance deeper into the ruins of the house, lean down, lighten your breath, and observe the outside world through the broken windows.
Three coalition soldiers did not notice him and left. Amera cautiously walked out of the rubble, looked around, found no enemy, and immediately continued on his way. Soon came to a position of the Cang Dynasty army. Through his distinctive sign language and whispering voices, as well as his military uniform, he entered the position. The soldier in the position told him to go to the headquarters in the position.
Lift the blanket that acts as a door and enter the temporary headquarters.
"Lord Cang is above, Amera, the commander of the Fifth Corps of the Rear Army of the Fire Gun Regiment, reports." He saluted somewhat rustily, and the commander returned the salute.
The army of the Cang Dynasty followed the establishment of the army of the Daohuang Dynasty, and a group of corps was divided into five armies: front, center, rear, left and right, each corps was subordinate to six corps, each corps was subordinate to eight battalions, each battalion was subordinate to twelve rows, and each row was subordinate to twenty corps.
Soon he was placed by the commander into the unit that raided the library. After a little reorganization and resupply, he was incorporated into the assault team.
The assault party marched through a line detected by scouts towards the Frankfurt Grand Library, which was a stronghold on the outskirts of the enemy's city defenses.
This attack is to strike the enemy in the abdomen by surprise, and whether it is successful or not, such an attack will divert the enemy's attention, relieve the pressure on the rest of the troops on all fronts, and prepare for the organization of a full-scale attack.
Of course, it is better if it succeeds, and pulling out the Great Library will inevitably cause the enemy to retreat on all fronts, and the headquarters of the Middle-Turkish coalition, which cannot detect the loophole for a while, will have to send more troops to surround the headquarters.
When the troops advanced and encountered a small number of coalition soldiers, the commander of the assault team sent several veterans on an assassination mission, making sure to try to get in front of the enemy's position as much as possible without arousing the enemy's vigilance. I don't know how long it took for the Great Library to finally come into view.
The commander raised his hand, and the troops stopped. All the troops began to disperse, looking for firing positions, and the artillerymen began to softly construct improvised shelling positions and calibrate the shelling parameters.
When everything was ready, the infantry artillery, captured by the Cang Dynasty army, began to bombard, and the assault team began to charge at the same time.
The enemy guarding the library quickly came to his senses and began to fight back. The heavy machine gun began to strafe, but the attacking team that quickly rushed in front of them failed to allow the heavy machine gun to do its job. Fighting began in the trenches.
Shovels, bayonets, shotguns, hammers, and even teeth and nails became weapons on both sides. The assault team entered the trenches one after another, and the defenders continued to fill the flesh millstone.
Amera stabbed the soldiers in front of him and quickly continued his way into the labyrinth of trenches. Soon he met a soldier with a canvas bag, and he saw the distinctly red circle.
Before the war, Lord Komodo had emphasized that in order to gain a foothold in Middle-earth and not just war, there were some default rules to be followed, and some people could not be killed, such as a soldier with a canvas bag with a red circle pattern in front of Amella.
This is the so-called medic, and it is the same as the medicine shaman in the tribe. However, Amera did not put down the gun in his hand and cautiously looked at the enemy in front of him, who only had a small gun, and raised the gun to the medic, both sides were surrounded by fallen comrades, so that at first the fierce eyes were anxiously fighting in the air.
Amera and Luden looked at each other. Amera could see in his eyes the hatred and the desire to draw a firearm. Luden, on the other hand, saw firmness. These are two people who defend their homes and defend the country and for the continuation of the race, and this is the confrontation of the two groups.
At this moment, the two burst into invisible fire. Everyone is just, just waiting for history to argue.
Luden understood the peculiarity of his status, and in order to allow more medics to survive, he had to make the gesture of surrender of the medics in the tacit agreement between the two sides.
Amera pointed at Luden with a firearm, Luden threw away his firearm, and Amera put down the firearm, passed by him, and continued on.
Luden did not pick up the gun before Amella disappeared, he continued to treat the wounded, and the follow-up troops of the Cang Dynasty entered, saw his specialness, and ignored him, but only seized the weapon he had thrown behind.
Lu Deng, who lost his weapon, was not much annoyed, but seemed to have unloaded his burden, and after being captured by the Cang Dynasty army, he continued to treat the wounded as a field doctor.
