Chapter 565: Edge of the War Zone (I)

The surging waves swept across the green fields along the Rhine River, and moved along the vacant defense line towards the wide-open western defense line production area.

It was already noon of the first day when the other knight lords under the protection of the Teutonic Knights learned the news. They received the bad news of the cavalry escaping from the fortress during an afternoon tea with milk and honey.

The proud Rhine River defense line lasted less than ten days, and on the eleventh day it was breached by the heavy weapons of the Eastern Allied Forces.

"They have more than 100,000 people!"

The Teutonic Knights' defense line could not provide so many soldiers to exchange with the Eastern Allied Forces. The Teutonic soldiers could only barely make a 1:1 exchange with the Allied soldiers in the meat-mincing battle.

As a surprise attack, artillery bombardment, and even a disadvantage in troops, the fact that they could offer a 1:1 exchange ratio was already a manifestation of their familiarity with the terrain and extremely well-trained.

But everything ended at the moment when the meat-chopping war began.

Failure was a foregone conclusion.

The Teutonic Knights' defenders simply could not separate the interlaced fronts... Even if they directly used the fortress artillery to support the front line without distinguishing between friend and foe, and let the rain of shotguns harvest the lives of everyone in the open area.

When the fortress artillery and light artillery exposed their coordinates, the air forces such as the Eagle Cavalry and Pegasus Cavalry would dive with more than 10 kilograms of explosives to destroy the artillery positions ten seconds later.

Some of the air forces were shot down during the dive, and the mud pillars exploded on the ground, while the other part successfully served as wet guided bombs to send the fortress artillery group into the sky.

Soldiers on both sides would not hesitate to fill themselves as bullets at the moment when the gap was exposed, and put their bayonets against the enemy's chest, and blood soaked two different types of standard armor.

The monster infantry put into the battlefield made this meat grinder war more cruel. Armored trolls, barbarians, and other constructs and monster infantry were put into the battlefield, pushing the battlefield one step forward towards the meat grinder.

"Attack! Tear open their line!" Captain Bo roared.

The coalition soldier pulled the bayonet out of the chest of a Teutonic Knights troll. Before he could catch his breath, the armored troll belonging to the Teutonic Knights swept away a group of soldiers with the iron hammer in his hand, and was blown up in the head by the coalition's volley of gunfire...Far away, the beast-shaped giant wolf was shot into a sieve by the dense gunfire before it could even use its physical advantage.

The fall of the monster infantry did not mean the end of the battle. The coalition and Teutonic Knights soldiers stepped over the bodies on the ground that were being collected by the light stream and moved forward.

"Hold the line! Push up!" The officer wearing a pointed helmet roared.

The Teutonic Knights' spearmen raised the bayonets on the front of their rifles, issued a hoarse roar to boost morale, and then fought with the coalition soldiers who came up.

The soldiers fought and the victory was decided by a stab in an instant.

The winner is dead, the loser is dead.

The coalition forces did not mind raising the intensity of the war by one level. After entering the meat-grinding war, the two-way battle changed from a war of attrition to a one-time war of competing for stock.

No one could draw enough soldiers from the territory to fill the meat-grinding battlefield, and the coalition forces would not give the Teutonic Knights garrison 72 hours to regroup.

The heavy knights drawn by the Teutonic Knights also disappeared quickly like a snowflake thrown into the ocean.

The role of small elite units in this extremely high-intensity battlefield was also greatly weakened. The Teutonic heavy knights trapped in the formation were just a can that could be opened by a volley of guns at will. The wizards and mages rushed to the front of the coalition soldiers with explosives while they were still preparing to cast spells.

The time of fighting one enemy at a time is completely over. Except for unreasonable high-level spellcasters, as long as the low-level and middle-level spellcasters are trapped in the dilemma of not being able to move, there will be countless three-kilogram and five-kilogram explosives waiting for them.

Even if the person standing here today is Yves, who belongs to the Holy See, the coalition soldiers will be absolutely determined to send her to hell.

Since she will not really die, then adopt a tactic that will not really die.

Everything is for more efficient completion of combat missions.

The coalition has begun to initially possess some of the future high-time lords in the war.

The shouts of killing penetrated the night sky.

For the Eastern Coalition, as long as they can take down the Rhine Fortress of the Teutonic Knights, it is worth paying any price.

For the Teutonic Knights, they had to retreat. One step back meant losing everything... They believed and knew that the other Knights behind them would not be so kind as to give them part of their territory to make a comeback.

The land under the sun was always so tempting.

Countless people shed their blood for it.

Until dawn, this seemingly endless battle of mincing meat finally ended with the coalition forces winning a bloody battle.

The Vatican Crusaders further away did not notice anything. There were more important things waiting for them to solve. Their white boots stepped on the dark soil.

The priests wearing white and red cross robes frowned and looked at the building complex that was originally prepared for them, which seemed to have completely turned into ruins, and the camp of wounded soldiers with constant wailing in the distance.

Someone needs to be held responsible for the failure of the expedition.
