"Really, I'm a little impressed with that guy. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo”

After this, after receiving the news that the Visigothic army was going to attack here, William couldn't help but praise it.

"Do you dare to attack in a desperate way? I thought this guy would continue to hide in the fortresses of Strasbourg until I went over and killed him.

However, such tactics ...... Hmph, is that a tactic...... It's pretty good, in a sense, it's a good tactic. Although it's a one-shot deal or something. However, for a country like Visigoth, which lacks strategic depth, a hammer deal is also a last resort......

The current strategic situation, as well as the ability to mobilize. After losing fifteen million people from various client states, this is the only way he can do if he wants to rule the world.

500,000 Visigothic troops against 100,000 Russian Gothic troops?"

"If you win......

Well, no. Even if you win, it won't change anything, at most it will only delay the destruction of the country. William thought to himself.

After all, the seeds of destruction have been planted - it's not that the empire doesn't have an equal number of troops, it's just that it can't transport those troops at the moment. ”

Even if the battle is lost. As long as William is still there, even if William is only spared, it will be no problem for the 100,000 army to be wiped out. He also had hundreds of thousands of well-equipped, well-trained troops on the other side of the Rhine, who were loyal to him. He can make a comeback anytime, anywhere.

On the other hand, after fighting out the 500,000 army that has been mobilized several times and organized almost all the young and middle-aged men in the country, what is there for this group of Visigoths, and does it have a future?

After a long period of war, the total population of Visigoths has been less than 10 million, and these 500,000 strong men are almost all adult men. At least half of the adult males. After these people died, the empire only needs to immigrate a group of old bachelors to open a harem here.

It won't be long before this becomes a pleasant new territory for the Empire.

However, in addition, this group of Visigoths is at the end of their rope and is about to make a desperate bet. The current army of less than 100,000 is their last return.

In this case, William felt that the Visigoths were no longer to worry about anything.

On the other hand, the threat of the Britons is constantly increasing.

Although it is said that the Empire's Cheka agents in Briton have no way to get any more important and valuable information. However, it is possible to draw conclusions from the analysis of general information alone.

That is, the Britons are also mobilizing.

Of course, because Briton is not yet a full-fledged nation-state. The mobilization system is very backward, so it won't work as well as the Empire and Visigoths.

However, it can't stand the fact that the Britons are rich.

If you have money, you can have everything.

Compulsory conscription, compulsory conscription like Zhuangding or something is not impossible. Although in terms of combat effectiveness, it is slightly inferior to the soldiers of the national brainwashing of the country. But for the Britons, that's enough.

Well, yes, enough.

"They organize armies on a large scale. So, who is it for? Visigoth, or me? Or are they trying to clean us all up while the Visigoths and we beat each other up and then lose out?

I have to say that if they really choose to do so, there must be something wrong with their heads. ”

William thought so in his heart.

"But it doesn't matter. Yes, it doesn't matter.

Destiny, and beyond that, there is the war, and the ultimate winner of this war must be me. It was meant to be. Hum hum ......"

And just like that, even when the Imperial Army faced an attack from the enemy as if it had gone crazy on the first day. William remained confident.

100,000 people.

Among them were two Guards regiments.

Guards regiments with rapid-fire rifles, armed with Gatling guns.

William even felt that these two Guards Legions alone would be enough to defeat the enemy—and that there were even many soldiers armed with cold weapons when the enemy was all over the mountain. When breaking through the artillery fire network of the Russian Gothic Empire and killing in front of the Imperial position, dozens of barrages suddenly appeared, like sickles, frantically harvesting human lives.

Death, death. Death is still a matter of course. In an instant, the strength of a company, a battalion, a regiment turned into corpses in an instant. In this way, he became a dead man under the sudden appearance of dense fire.

In an instant, the feeling of fear spread like a plague throughout the Visigothic army, so much so that when the army of the Russian Gothic Empire launched a countercharge, in a short time, these Visigoths could not even react. So much so that this group of guys died in vain.

The new weapons of the Russian Gothic Empire, that is, machine guns, in this way, very happily harvested lives, and also very happily announced the original tactics in the world now, columns, dense phalanxes, queues to shoot or something, can be declared over, can be declared happy to die.

Well, yes, that's it.

Corpses, corpses. And, of course, corpses. There was nothing but corpses, corpses were listed. Corpses piled up on top of the corpses.

Corpses, corpses, corpses, corpses.

In just a short moment, the perverted and crazy weapon of the machine gun has the unique high-spirited demeanor of young people. It revealed its intentions with impatience.

It's the blood-pounding title of defeating artillery and preempting the world's best killing machine.

Seeing the large expanse of corpses on the opposite side, not to mention that the Visigoths on the opposite side were stunned like idiots, even the Imperial army that had created this inferior and tragic situation couldn't help but show a surprised expression.

And then there was a look: "You're kidding, aren't you?!!How could so many people have died?"

The machine gun shooter who made all this, even if he was a veteran, still felt furious about the terrible scene he had created. Even feelings of guilt arise. A. The feeling that I will definitely go to hell when I die comes naturally. They almost couldn't help but cry.

However, this is the battlefield.

It's still the closest thing to hell in the world.

"Attack, keep on attacking"

"Shoot, keep shooting. ”

Almost at the same time, the two people who should have been the biggest enemies in this world, who should hate each other, and who should be eager to kill each other right now, reached a happy consensus. That is, go on, add nourishment to this battlefield that seems like hell.

"If a company can't work, a battalion, if a battalion can't work, a regiment, or even an entire corps rushes up, infantry, cavalry. Artillery. All power must be used. All armies are to play their part, all of them, all of them! We are going to attack, to charge, to the death—"

Of course, with such a generous and heroic roar, the Archon Leopold may not have considered himself one of the members of the "till death stands".

This was true even after seeing the epoch-making weapons of the Empire - and, in fact, there were more epoch-making weapons of the Empire.

Rapid-fire rifles. A modern weapon that appeared as the world's first rifle in the true sense of the word. Uses brass projectiles and pointed bullets. It was pleasant to use a new type of explosive as a propellant. The range and speed of fire are so satisfying that I can't help but show my face.

It's just that in the light of such a terrible weapon as the machine gun, the light of this latest rapid-fire rifle of the empire is naturally shrouded in it.

That's why they think machine guns are terrifying. After all, a strafing shot from freezing to death can turn a large number of enemies into corpses. And how much of this is actually due to rapid-fire rifles. It doesn't matter. Maybe no one cares about that either.

Probably.

William thought so in his heart. Then a burst of machine-gun fire was seen, turning almost a regiment of cavalry units into slag. It's a little boring.

"Everything was perfect, except that it would strain my own supply of bullets. William thought to himself, "War or something, maybe it's going to be very boring from today." ”

Meanwhile.

"Damn, to have such a weapon is simply cheating. Really, bastard. ”

Seeing the army under his command, the army that was still majestic and mighty before was strafed by the machine guns on the opposite side like cutting wheat in batches, and then hung up. The Archon Leopold, on the other side, felt that he was going crazy.

Everything is completely different from what I imagined. After taking out such a cheating weapon, the defense line of the imperial army is simply as solid as a rock.

And after several successive attacks, which did not cause much damage to the Imperial army, and their own people died in large numbers, the morale of the Visigothic army naturally dropped.

If this continues, if the army continues to be forcibly ordered to attack, the army will definitely resist. Maybe it's okay for a short time. Perhaps no one has yet thought of such a thing as a riot mutiny. But if it takes a little longer, then things may be out of control.

"Am I about to be defeated? I was dishonored, and I was given a toy-like army on the other side...... Defeated?!"

At the thought of this possibility, the Archon Leopold on the other side felt that it was difficult to breathe for a while. It feels like I'm about to die.

"No, I will never accept it...... By the way, isn't there that thing? The big Breton toy. Yes, I still have that thing. ”
