Chapter 603 Broken-winged Bird (I)

The charge whistle sounded.

Guns and swords against each other.

Fighting, roaring, blood raining down.

Every bullet fired by the shooters could inflict heavy damage to a Penitent soldier, but the forward shields opened by the Templars were catching all the bullets from the rifles.

The eight-round ammunition reserve of the lever rifle was simply not enough in front of the unclear number of Holy See troops. The single-shot loading mode at the bottom gave the soldiers no time to load ammunition for the weapon.

After firing eight rounds of prepared ammunition, the cold light has arrived.

The Atonement Army rushed to the scattered cavalry and infantry with flintlock rifles and short swords, and used the fighting skills they learned in training to send the 'human beings' in front of them to hell.

The infantry and cavalry responded faster with bayonets in their hands. Gold and iron clashed, and the physical disadvantage of the Atonement Army suddenly appeared.

The well-fed infantry and cavalry have a more significant advantage in strength confrontation. With just a little force, they can suppress the Atonement Army who can only eat mushrooms like pancakes.

Parrying the dagger of the Atonement Army, the cavalryman sent the bayonet into the enemy's chest with his backhand.

놌The Atonement Army is a mixed force that came out of the levy model. Almost every infantryman under the lord has been converted from cold weapons, and they all have very good melee combat skills.

The next moment, because the door was open, half of his body was cut open by a captain with a long sword.

The infantry and cavalry only gained a slight advantage in the two rounds of contact, and then were dragged into a meat-crushing battle by the low-era infantry equipped with a large number of melee weapons. The casters of the Atonement Army used the spells they had already prepared.

Armored units have an almost invincible advantage when facing unarmored units that cannot break armor.

"Holy, the light bless me with victory!"

A Templar raised his sword high and cut open the spear used by the infantry to block, and cut the spearman in half. These elite infantrymen who shined on the battlefield were naturally the targets of other infantry and cavalry.

The infantry cavalry responsible for countering the monster infantry and elite infantry filled the trench shotguns with lead shotguns and aimed them at the Templar Knights who entered the position...

Pull the trigger.

The trench shotgun blasted the Templar's arm into pieces, and the flesh and blood wrapped around the metal fragments, releasing an arc-shaped barrage.

Divine magic sealed the knight's wound, and the loaded second shot had already arrived, covering the Templar's chest with a layer of scarlet.

It was just a more brutal meat grinding battle, the barrel of the gun was empty and the bayonet was red.

Blood soaked the ground.

Fortress IV, command room.

"Look, what a brilliant achievement!"

Levins, the Holy See's communicator, admired the battle reports obtained by the Holy Army entering the battlefield. Within a week, they relied on the airborne motorized infantry "Holy Army" to eliminate more than 3,000 enemies and seized more than 4,000 rifles and a large amount of ammunition.

And successfully destroyed the enemy's three 꿗-shaped strongholds, twenty-three 꿗-shaped strongholds, and captured ten magic mechas.

땤They only lost 깊5,000 soldiers of the Atonement Army, 눁땡only the elite infantry of the Holy Army.

Considering that the Atonement Army has no human rights, it should be considered as consuming thousands of bullets.

A brilliant victory.

"After the Holy Army I brought was invested, our army gained a full-line advantage! Let those clean demons who will not die retreat for a full ten kilometers! It is a waste of the Privy Council to give you so many resources!"

Solta, who was once a papal commissioner and now a frontline commander, looked very unhappy.

The victory brought by the courier undoubtedly proves his incompetence. Even though everyone knows that the victory of the new troops entering the battlefield does not represent a long-term advantage...but this does not affect the courier's ability to have a good-looking job. Battle report.

The Holy Army brought by the courier served as airborne mobile infantry, opening up the situation for the anxious battle on the front line.

What he said is right, airborne motorized infantry is fatal to unprepared artillery units. Once the lords' infantry and cavalry lose their artillery, they lose their ability to attack fortresses and suppress them.

The Holy Army also brought the Holy See troops the air reconnaissance capability they had been lacking.

But Solta didn't quite understand why such a useful force was brought out at this time. If the Privy Council had given him this kind of force earlier...he would have achieved such excellent results.

"This is the victory I recount to you, this is the victory I will bring to the Privy Council."

Correspondent Levins walked up to Solta arrogantly and gently waved the battle report from the front line. Solta tried his best not to read the extremely beautiful battle report.

"If the enemies are only at this level, we don't need to ask for the support of the paladin vanguard. Let the woman lead her troops to grow moldy in the corner... No, it's better to let her occupy the land. She spit it out."

Solta cursed secretly, how could the new guy be more greedy than himself because he looked like a decent person.

I just hope that the skinny mummies in the Privy Council will not read the battle report and replace him. Then there will be too many people in the Holy See who want to cause trouble for him. If he does not obtain enough benefits for them to fill their stomachs...

Levins placed the battle report on the table and knocked on the table. Solta's expression made him very happy.

"I can't wait to send this report to the Privy Council and let them 'create' more holy troops to put on the front line. It was just the method troops you used that didn't make a breakthrough before."

Those immortal demons have nothing to be afraid of. They are all mortal and have the same mortal body.

땤This victory was brought about by the faction he represented, not the faction represented by Solta.

Levins knocked on the table, using a crisp voice to put pressure on Solta. This week's battle report was far better than Solta's record since he took office...even if added together, it might not be as good as the record of the week when the messenger arrived.

Solta didn't say anything. He actually didn't know much about the experience of the paladin, but he knew that the mixed combat and repair troops encountered heavy air fire from the enemy.

At this time, he hoped that the Holy Army could force out the enemy's air force again.

"Don't forget, there is an air force on the opposite side that can use bombing." Solta reminded, he thought, he should say something.

But, he hasn't seen them appear for a long time... and the survivors of the bombing said that the size of the enemy's fleet was actually not large.

"It doesn't matter, it's just an air force!" Levins sneered: "Do you want to scare me and slow down the advancement of the ordinary troops of the Holy Army? Because I didn't read the previous report?"

The survivors of the bombing said that the enemy would not exceed thirty-six airships.

"They only acted twice, which means that each dispatch requires a lot of resources... and since the previous attack, they have never used that kind of troops again." Levins continued: "If they really have the ability to dispatch troops of this level, do you think we can sit in this fortress and chat?"

Solta didn't say anything, just looked at the young man in front of him who was already overwhelmed by victory, not only him, but also more people behind him.

Indeed, there are only two records of the enemy dispatching fleet-scale bombings in the record.

But most of the priests sent to scout the Sky Island never returned. The priests who were able to return only reported that there were many dangerous wild animals on the Sky Island, and no traces of humans were found.

Perhaps they only have this air force?

"If they are worried, why don't we lure out their fleet and then use armored airships to annihilate the Holy Army at once?"

Levins tapped the table lightly, his words full of confidence.
