When the hunters launched an attack on the town of the Black Forest along the river, the Legion teams coming from the direction of the Black Forest Fort were also subjected to the roar and fury of the Calfan heavy machine guns, and the condition of these casters was even worse than the coastal defenses, because they were under fire while on the way, and in this case, the mages had no time to build proper cover for themselves, let alone organize an effective counterattack.

In a short period of time, they couldn't even figure out how many attackers there were, and how many guns were that were constantly pouring lethal bullets at them......

While the casters of these councils were still busy dodging the overwhelming rain of bullets, the coastal defenses of Black Forest Town were already in an even more difficult state.

The assault of the Iris guards did help the Black Forest Infantry Regiment as the defenders to tear a gap, but it also cost them a huge price, and the former royal guards were also very powerless in the face of the concentrated fire of several Kalfan heavy machine guns at the same time.

Although their small rituals and multiple rituals of protection were able to undo most of the damage caused by bullets, the constant interference and impact of the Kalfan heavy machine guns made it difficult for them to move, and due to the precautions and preparations made by the hunting regiment before, almost all heavy machine gun squads did not use the regular bullet chains, but instead used special ammunition with more power and magic crystals.

They are expensive to build, and there is no way to mass-produce them like regular bullets, so each heavy machine gun squad is equipped with a very limited number.

But it would be extremely cost-effective to exchange these bullets for the elite that the Dereans were proud of.

In this round of bloody assault launched by the Iris-tailed guards, the Chasseurs also suffered certain losses, especially the assault team that tried to seize the bridge before, which can be said to be almost completely annihilated, but the price paid by the Delands for this is also high.

The death of each of the Iris guards was a symbol of the waste of a great deal of equipment and expensive alchemy potions, and in just ten minutes, the elites loyal to the royal family of Teresa could only retreat down the bridge in a broken state, and in the process, two more Iris guards died in a very tragic posture - the initiator was the young Wattle mage, and the magic or weapons he used were so strange that once they hit, they could directly destroy the human body along with the secret ritual.

Instead of running out of his Hound Fangs, he used the same method to kill three of the Iris guards, and began to do his job again, covering the Kalfan heavy machine guns from the woodland to pour fire on the opposite bank.

Once the battle reaches this stage, it begins to become brutal and uninteresting.

With the Kalfan heavy machine guns fully in place, the hunting regiment had formed a full-scale fire suppression against the enemy's defensive line, and immediately after that, new assault squads began to climb the bridge and began to advance towards the opposite bank.

Casualties are happening all the time, and the situation on the battlefield is constantly changing.

….

In the casting and shooting again and again, all the battle-related experiences that Xiuge had learned before were most fully verified, and the memories that once belonged to other individuals became vivid and clear, and for a few moments, Xiuge even felt that he couldn't tell where he was.

He could only confirm one thing, and that was that the number of people he had killed with his own hands was increasing over time.

Dozen? Dozens? Or is it nearly a hundred?

There was no way for him to know for sure.

The explosion of powerful crystalline munitions would always blow the enemy into indistinguishable pieces, and the lethal magic he used from time to time to free his hands could easily turn enemies into miserable mutilated corpses, which was not easy to calculate.

The medics and alchemists in charge of the battlefield ambulance have already begun to act, and under the protection of magical rituals, they have begun to search for the wounded and bring them back to the relative safety of the rear, where they will be treated and treated.

After firing another powerful crystalline bullet, the revolver rifle in Xiuge's hand once again reached the limit of bearing, Xiuge glanced at the barrel that constantly emitted magical mist, and casually threw it away, the mage's hand quickly formed, and copied a revolver rifle that had fallen not far away and belonged to a certain fallen soldier, he leaned on the temporary bunker on the bank of the river, quickly checked the state of the firearm, and after confirming that it was in good condition, he refilled the bullet and selected a "lucky person" on the opposite bank to pull the trigger.

At this moment, two red magic signals floated into the air one after another in the upstream and downstream positions of the river.

That was a signal for a successful breakthrough of the bridge.

At the same time, the assault team that boarded the bridge next to it had also successfully reached the opposite bank, and the valley-level mage Krautz in the hunting regiment was among them, this experienced and highly accomplished mage in necromancy was like a messenger of death, with the construction of the magic pattern, a magic bunker set up near the bridge was shrouded in a deadly magical fog, and in the bunker, those Deran soldiers who were relying on the bunker to resist and shoot were suffocated by the thick fog on the spot, As a result, their vitality is lost, and their bodies become fragile and shriveled.

For the 5th Chasseur, this was destined to be a huge victory.

This victory was not only a reference to the raid on the Black Forest town itself, but also a validation of some of the new tactics.

How to occupy the initiative on the battlefield when magic resources are relatively scarce and the number of mages is at a disadvantage has always been a difficult problem that King Wattle has focused on in these years, and the emergence of new weapons has opened a gap for them.

Empower each soldier to threaten their opponent's caster from a safer distance, trading cheap bullets for their vital power......

Ideas such as these were brutally tested on the battlefield in this raid.

As more assault teams crossed the bridge and successfully landed on the opposite bank, the Kalfan heavy machine guns that had advanced to the river bank finally came to a halt.

….

Someone handed a cigarette from the side, and Xiuge turned his head to look, only to see that it was the operator of a Kalfan heavy machine gun next to him, his face was wet and slightly red, which was the result of operating the heavy machine gun for a long time and being stimulated by the water vapor emitted from the "magic water cooling system".

Shuge nodded at him, took the cigarette, and with his magic he made a pinch of flame, lighting it for the other party and himself.

In the drift of smoke, Shug's somewhat disorganized mind and restless nerves finally calmed down a little, and he looked up, only to see several different magical signals rising from the sky, two of which were a dull blue, which meant that two bridges had been forcibly destroyed by the Desa.

The battle is still going on.

Although the coastal defense line of the Black Forest Infantry Regiment has collapsed, during this time, the defensive line set up on the edge and inside the town has also begun to be activated, and what awaits the Fifth Chasseur Regiment will be more bloody and direct close-quarters combat and fighting.

……

In order to ensure the successful completion of the opening of a number of new fronts, the day after the Fifth Chasseur launched a raid on the town of the Black Forest, on the frontal battlefield of the city of Seren, the Waters army launched its first large-scale offensive since the outbreak of the war.

In this large-scale offensive, many new regiments formed by the Wattle Kingdom were put into battle, including a number of Praetorian mixed cavalry regiments named after the royal family of "Augustine", and a number of mage archery regiments named after the "Plateau Council".

Both evolved from the tactics of the old era.

The principle of the "Mage Marksmans" is simple, that is, to use the Mage Apprentices, who are large in number and are inferior in spell casting, to complement the firepower and range with the new rifles, they may not be as good as other regular Wartre soldiers in charging and advancing on the battle line, but their presence can make up for the disadvantages of the Kalfan heavy machine gun in terms of mobility and range exposed under the current conditions.

As for the Janissary mixed cavalry regiment of the Wattel Kingdom, it was lighter than the royal family of the past

Cavalry and heavy cavalry regiments were reorganized.

In the past, whether it was a cavalry regiment on the plateau or a plain, they often chose to let the cavalry carry both cold weapons for close combat and crystallized guns for long-range shooting, because of the reloading problem of crystallized guns, these cavalrymen would often launch a frontal assault after a round of shooting at the enemy, with strong armor and magic magic instruments moving with the cavalry regiment to directly tear the enemy's line, and cut down those weakly armored soldiers.

And now, the Wattle military has given the newly formed cavalry regiments some new tasks.

On the premise of retaining the mobility of the cavalry regiment and the ability to charge frontally, the Wattle military adjusted the configuration of cavalry armor and harness, and equipped these cavalrymen with new revolving rifles, in addition to a light alchemy bomb that could be fired directly through the revolver rifle, and began to be put into experimental use.

However, it was not only Walter's army that changed dramatically as a result of the war.

As a behemoth that works closely with Merlinle and the Law Council and is rich in magical resources, the Deland Kingdom has also made new attempts and responses to this new era of warfare, and when the Vortel cavalry regiment began to gallop across the plain, they were surprised to find that many magical balloons were floating behind the defense line of the Deland Kingdom.

….

They are not the same as ordinary artillery observation balloons.

It is larger and has an enclosed pod.

In the face of the advance of Waterl's army, these special magic balloons actually came directly above the battlefield, and then they showed their terrifying side.

In each pod, there are light crystalline cannons that have been prototyped by the kingdom of Deland in a short period of time - they are lighter and easier to transport, and although the crystalline shells used are not comparable to traditional crystallized cannons, the air superiority allows them to bombard those key ground forces more easily and accurately.

Thus, after the highlands combined steam technology and magic to innovate, the war scholars of the plains also took an extremely important step.

"We should be the first to take over the skies!"

These were the remarks made by Commander Teresa in charge of Balloon Tactics after witnessing the benefits of this new weapon, which were quickly recorded by military reporters and published in the newspapers of the Kingdom of Teresa.

At the same time, some scholars in the Kingdom of Derea believe that the blockade of steam technology should end immediately - only by embracing this new technology and promoting their integration with magic can breakthroughs in different fields be achieved, of course, this view is not so easily accepted within the Kingdom of Derea and the Law Council, but for the military and alchemy workshops of the Kingdom of Derea, the new revolving rifles captured on the battlefield have also provided them with some important new ideas.

After withstanding the attack from the sky, the generals, marshals and scholars in the Plateau Kingdom also set their sights on this new field, and the large steam airship flying between the cities of the Wattel Kingdom became the focus of people for the first time, and a considerable number of scholars and alchemists believed that this large transport vehicle could become an epoch-making war machine after reasonable modification.

The war has rightly triggered a double explosion of human technology and vision.

By the time these briefings were successfully delivered to the Fifth Chasseur through the Magical Ritual and seen by Shug, it was already four days after the Black Forest Raid.

In the past few days, the Black Forest Town and the Black Forest Fort area have been basically controlled by the Fifth Chaser Regiment, and the Deland Infantry Regiment originally stationed here was forced to withdraw from the town area, and most of them retreated to the villages at a certain distance from the Black Forest Town, using this as a base to engage in continuous combat with the Chasseur Regiment, and in some areas on the edge of the town, there are still scattered DeLand soldiers who choose to hold on, and they have brought a lot of trouble to the activities of the Chasseur.

After successfully achieving its previous objectives, the Fifth Chasseur Regiment began to work more intensively.

Personnel recuperation and medical treatment, construction of new fortifications and temporary hospitals, clearance

Surrender the hidden dangers within the town and send a considerable number of men to set up posts in the nearby area, as well as protect the roads connecting to the rear, which are important passages for subsequent reinforcements and strategic supply transportation.

In the early morning of the fifth day when the town of the Black Forest fell into the hands of the Chasseurs, the sky was torn apart by a deafening roar, and a large-scale magical artillery bombardment from the artillery regiment of the Kingdom of Deland began.
