Chapter 576: The Edge of the Bayonet (Part 2)

Distance, 700 meters.

Crystal dewdrops slowly moved forward on the gray plain.

There was a neat and rapid dull sound of metal boots stepping on the soft mud and grass.

The heavy infantry with square shields in front raised advanced flintlock rifles and approached the defense position of the Ring Island Alliance, which was pouring out small balls.

Neat and uniform.

The army moved forward.

There was no chaos due to the suppression of force, nor did they rashly deploy the formation and move forward quickly because they were close to the enemy.

As a collective, marching in an orderly manner is the fastest way to advance the marching formation to the front of the enemy. Every step outside of discipline is a mistake.

The military manual requires every soldier to be loyal to his duty.

Move forward steadily.

Hundreds of soldiers who were temporarily recruited at the mining station of the island alliance raised their bolt-action rifles and fired at the infantry line approaching them. The bolt-action single-shot rifles had insufficient bullets to penetrate the infantry troops and prop up the shield, and only showed diffuse ripples when they landed on the barrier.

The 20 mechas of the garrison concentrated their efforts to destroy the four protective barriers, but those soldiers quickly dispersed into a linear formation before the shield was destroyed, minimizing the damage caused by the ball explosion.

The infantry line of the Holy See had already approached 300 meters in this short time. They raised their rifles and continued to wait for the array to approach 200 meters.

Xu Yan roared at his leaders to use all the biocatalysts stored in the warehouse and send them to the front line, whether as cannon fodder or to attack the enemy line, and not let the enemy get close.

"Aren't those things used for emergency? Just inject the mutant beast blueprint and send it to the front line... Stay away from these things after the injection! Why haven't the reinforcement cavalry arrived yet?"

They are different from Ji Lin who relies on gravity... Xu Yan has reason to believe that once the opponent enters the right distance, he will launch a bayonet charge on his weak line.

Bayonet charge, quickly pulling the battle into hand-to-hand combat, was once the favorite tactic of the leaders of the Ring Island Alliance.

Xu Yan knew very well that this mining station had five or six hundred armed miners plus rock elements that served as transport equipment in the mine, which was not enough. This force would have to be tripled to defend it.

He spat as he watched the figure with white wings rising behind the front line, and the priest troops of the Holy See using air equipment.

It felt really bad to be occupied by birds, and I hated birds the most.

It was not good to look like a bird.

It was the same as pretending to be something. When the fleet came, they would beat you all into grandsons.

If the sky ship was well supported, the six heavy ship-borne ball generators on it could fire one construct at a time, and it would be no problem to hold up the protective shield against this kind of infantry line.

"Captain Xu! The injection is complete. All the trained mutants have been released to the battlefield!"

The leader in neat military uniforms came running quickly.

After being injected with mutagen, the trained creatures can still remain conscious for a short period of time, and then gradually be engulfed by crazy emotions. Soldiers who have experienced it said...it is a feeling of being hit by chaotic emotions, as if the emotional valve in the body is controlled for a moment, and all the secretory organs cannot judge the body's condition and secrete hormones normally.

Only in the fifth hour, the Ring Island Alliance cannot do biological examinations for each of us. We know that the injected creatures can still maintain a period of consciousness. That's enough.

It's still far from the standard mining army... But if they can't even beat the ground invaders, what qualifications do they have to compete with them.

The giant bat, which still had consciousness, looked at Xu Yan, flapped its wings and rose into the sky, and then the dire wolf with gray fur growing in large quantities rushed out of the ground front of the Ring Island Alliance Mining Station.

Bayonet.

A short knife mounted on a rifle can temporarily turn a rifle into a short gun substitute.

This is the most suitable weapon before the invention of hand-to-hand combat, and it is also the last line of defense for soldiers when they run out of ammunition and food.

Just stab forward to kill the enemy.

The bayonet saw blood.

This is also the most direct means for the Holy See to fight against the impact monster infantry.

"Monster cavalry charge! Team 1, shield formation! Teams 2 and 3, switch bayonets to anti-biological mode, ready!"

The centurion began to issue a counterattack order the next second after observing the mutant dire wolf. The soldiers in the marching state immediately inserted their heavy shields into the ground, connecting them to form a counter-attack formation to reduce the impact force to a minimum.

The heavy mutant dire wolf, as heavy as a car, tore the protective barrier and crashed into the infantry line of the Church... but did not break through.

They began to tear the line composed of heavy infantry with their claws and fangs.

Casualties increased.

The bayonet rotated and inserted into the body of the tiger-shaped mutant beast. The bayonet engraved with the faint divine runes sank into the flesh and blood, and the divine power penetrated and paralyzed the flesh and blood.

One by one.

The dire wolf stabbed with bayonets wailed and fell to the ground.

The mutant beast that once caused heavy casualties to the Teutonic Knights, and the mutant beast that the Ring Island Alliance placed high hopes on.

Because the number of them was too small, they were dissolved and diluted by the scattered infantry line, like snowflakes thrown into boiling water and disappearing.

The soldiers in the army replaced their bayonets with new ones, raised their shields, and bypassed the bloated meat balls on the ground.

Keep going, move forward.
