Ultimate Weapon of Magic and Science

A low whistle like a train whistle flew overhead, and second-class soldier Thomas Lafayette curled his body together, eyes closed, his mouth wide open, and the long flint rifle was tightly clamped in his arms, as if it were the only one in the world Leaning. After a second, the whole world was shaking in a loud noise.

"The Almighty Creator, your mighty spirit is immense, benevolent and immeasurable, and pray that you will forgive my sins and bless me from the enemy..."

There was a prayer of prayer in the blasthole on the side. Excessive words and high-decibel tremolo showed that the believer's mental state was in a critical state. It may be resonating, or it may be the only thing everyone can do, and more and more voices are joining it.

Lafayette did not join the prayer. This 18-year-old boy who had just been in the army for two months was not religious. He knew that praying and asking were meaningless. In this moist, cold, quagmire with death visits at any time, there are too many examples to prove that it is not the gods, patriotism, or kingdom spirit that all people die in life. Deciding who lives and who is dead is just the mood and technique of the gunner with pointed ears opposite.

A loud noise interrupted the prayer. The small anti-blast hole suddenly shook violently. The impact spread from the back to the whole body and penetrated into the depths of the soul. The severe pain tightened the internal organs and bones. The taste of rust was faint in the mouth. The earth instantly turned into a violent ocean, and Lafayette seemed to be on a sampan that would sink at any time, hysterical howling.

Howling, cursing, prayer, wailing, coughing, vomiting, and laughter sounded in the trenches, and every second became extremely long and difficult. No one knows whether they will be patronized by shells in the next second, just like the death penalty The horror before his death seemed to be endless.

In the end, it may be that the uncles with sharp ears are in a good mood, or it is close to lunch time. The shelling ends at 1o 3:30 in the morning after an hour. 66 Continued After someone picked up the dirt accumulated in the anti-aircraft hole and carefully lifted the mirror to confirm that there was no movement in the trench, the non-commissioned officers and officers called for their subordinates to come out of the cave. It's too late to be glad that I can live a few more hours to mourn the sacrificed comrades, and a lot of work is spread to the survivors-repairing the broken trenches, counting the casualties, containing the injured soldiers and transferring the body to the rear...

Nothing can be said to be light and pleasant, let alone listening to the laughter and singing from the trench opposite, smelling the scent of meals coming from the wind, while doing the depressing work at hand. Morale, which was not originally high, became even lower in this environment.

Lafayette was unlucky and was put on the job of clearing the blasthole. This farmer's son was not unfamiliar with digging pits. However, he couldn't bear the thought of heavy labor and possible shelling at any time. Sighing for his bad luck, the engineer shovel in his hand also accelerated-anyway, he wanted to catch up with lunch before the next round of shelling. Even if there are only biscuits comparable to barbed wire and bread that can kill people.

(When is this nightmare head...)

Facelessly shoveling the soil into the trolley, looking at the half-arm buried in the soil, Lafayette wailed in his heart. There was nothing in his mouth, and his numb face didn't move.

He knew very well, don’t complain aloud, that is, there was a trace of clues, and the military police who smelled like hounds may come to the door. This kind of thing is not uncommon in an army that encourages whistleblowers and has no individual. Once identified as a "failureist" and "non-national", if he is lucky, the officer will use the thick and long "6 army spirit injection stick" to ruthlessly "inject the 6 army spirit", covering his **** buttocks. Stay in the cell for a while. If you are unlucky, you will be shot in public and become a specimen for warning others.

Therefore, no matter what you think in your heart, the second-class soldiers will not show on your face, let alone speak out.

What Lafayette does not know is that war exhaustion has already spread at the grassroots level, and if it is not for the organization and discipline of the military to function, I am afraid that there has been a large wave of deserters.

Who would have thought that this morale-minded, numb and sloppy army was still full of vitality just 3 days ago, and everyone was full of confidence and enthusiasm?

The 17th National Grenadier Division, to which Lafayette belongs, is the product of the expansion of the 6th Army. Compared with the similar forces that have been urgently formed recently, it is said that the soldiers are basically young and strong young men. Compared with the half-age teenagers and white-headed old men who didn't grow their beards later, the staff was short of one-third of the national division, and the division was already considered to be strong. Although the equipment is still mainly based on the old flint musket and Versailles rifle, the artillery is mostly a 6-pound small gun that can only be used to teach the gunner how to fire. Anyhow, it is also fully equipped.

Their luck is more than that. With the formation of more and more new units by the 6th Army, experienced officers have long been in short supply. When each battalion formed later was able to be assigned to an active or retired officer of the standing army, it was time to snicker, and the rest could only be temporarily promoted from the army. The 17th National Grenadier Division is assigned to a group of experienced officers who form combat power faster than other units.

Most importantly, the morale of this division is very high.

Because the soldiers are mostly young, the entire division is filled with youthful vitality, and the 6th Army's education and propaganda day after day, the soldiers have become extremely aggressive and eager to build up merits on the battlefield as soon as possible. They believe that elves are barbaric and heresy that they cannot communicate with. They blasphemy, burn, and do nothing. They believe that Charlemagne 6 has a talented general, and the government and people are their strong backing. This war is not only to defend the country, but also to fight against the heresy with trampling ears.

Such patriotic enthusiasm reached its peak when they got off the train four days ago. When they got tired and got off the stuffy tank car, they got off in Troyes, Aube Province, the military band played the ferocious "Rhein Legion War Song", and Major General Pitiini waved his fist to tell everyone that the enemy Having captured Rizenakuur, the soldiers pointed directly at Bar-sur-aube, and the target of the pointed ears here must be the Water 6 Junction Troyes. Once captured here, the heretics will go straight to Versailles and King Capital along the railway line and the Seine. All of you present are Charlemagne's last line of defense. Everyone must fight for the enemy and serve the emperor with his determination to kill him.

"The motherland is watching you, the crown prince is watching you! No one is a coward, and the 6th Army doesn't need a coward! Even if all the members are broken, you can't take a step back! Either all will win the victory, or everyone will ascend to the Hall of Heroes with a smile! Charlemagne! Long live! Long live the crown prince! Long live the 6th Army!"

Lafayette remembers what the head teacher said, when he was moved to tears. Now think about it, that is actually a warning, but also some ominous foretelling.

Soldiers full of national pride and honor, ready to die with generosity and fearlessness, came to the front line and immediately looked stunned. Why is this style of painting different from what is said?

The grand duel-style war scenes that the soldiers expected did not appear. They saw trenches and carts full of horses and wounded soldiers and bodies waiting to be withdrawn. Before they could get a taste of it, they were led into the position by officers and non-commissioned officers who had come to know the trenches in advance. The nightmare life of trench warfare begins.

Just entering the trench, everything is novel. But they haven't waited for the big-headed soldiers to sort out the novelties such as traffic trenches, "harbors" and hidden trenches. A gentle and friendly voice came across the trench. The amplified sound after the surge first expressed a warm welcome to the 17th National Grenadier Division to the Ba front line ba1aba1a, and immediately notified the Charlie Man. In order to celebrate this, Yar The Defence Army of Fuheim decided to carry out a full-day bombardment.

The pointed ear artillery used actions to prove that they were good at speaking. No. 13 didn't stop until the night fell. Due to lack of anti-artillery experience and unfamiliarity with the position, the number of downsizing in one day was as high as one-third. In addition to the casualties and missing persons, there are many neurological disorders.

On the first day of arrival on the battlefield, the Defense Forces of Alfheim used a cannon to bring Charlemagne rookies off the road, and this was only the beginning. Next they will also teach the young peers across the trenches what real power is, what war is, what life is.

Going to school on the battlefield is always very fast, because the guys with bad grades will soon turn into corpses and put on the carriage. After seeing the bombardment of **** with your own eyes, few people have fantasized about victory and glory. Even if there are people with this fantasy, the sharp ears will quickly cool down the overheated brains.

The most effective way is to cover with artillery fire, the overwhelming artillery is enough to make the bravest man into a coward. Followed by cold guns and cold cannons, elf snipers set up their own famous names with their heads blown one after another. These natural shooters are like a fish in the trench confrontation. Anyone who dares to get out of the trench is their goal. . At first Charlieman's army also tried to use the excellent shooter equipped with the Chasippo rear rifle to color, but it didn't take long for a whole row of corpses wrapped in military blankets to put the revenge on. After that, the battlefield resumed its previous posture.

Cold guns are as dangerous as snipers, and even more dangerous. With the calibration of the observer wearing the flying magic armor, the sharp-eared gunners can accurately bombard any interested target. Needless to say, ammunition depots, shelters and the like. When it was extremely boring, field toilets were not let go. Just yesterday, four field toilets were bombed into the sky. People have to doubt that the shells of Yalfheim don't cost money, they are all grown from trees.

In order to stay away from threats and increase the probability of survival, Charlemagne soldiers transferred their fortifications underground. Although due to the proximity of the groundwater system, the traps that always accumulate in the water are cold and wet, and rat bugs are rampant, but it is always better than being inexplicably killed. As long as you can hold your position and save your life, you can still pass it by.

Compared with the front-line soldiers who faced the death, the school's thinking was obviously slower than the first half.

In the eyes of officers, the difficulties are only temporary. With the continuous advancement, the pointed ears are becoming more and more far away from their rear, and the difficulty of supply and transportation is increasing. Relying on the transportation hub of Troyes, backed by the vast East Forest and Forest Lake, Charlemagne soldiers can completely stop their opponents. In this fortified area. Even if the Bal defense line is broken, it is still possible to use the terrain to deal with it. During this period, the Kingdom will continue to accumulate power until the strength is enough to break through the trenches of the defense forces, and there will be opportunities for sports warfare, and then use Charlemagne's quantitative advantages, especially the advantages of population and resources to win the war.

Before all these ideas were realized, the officers would never allow combat troops to lose their offensive spirit in passive trench warfare. They believe that trench warfare is killing the fighting spirit. In order to maintain the fighting spirit, the soldiers are not willing to get up and leave because they are safe and comfortable in the trench. They refuse to participate in the fighting. While the frontline soldiers were desperately constructing fortifications, some officers were trying to prevent the troops from obtaining enough materials to build defense lines so as not to allow the soldiers to repair the trenches too comfortably.

In all fairness, not every general is a red deer whose brain has been kicked by a donkey. The generals just hate trench warfare. This is a passive mode of warfare that violates all war creeds and principles. Of course, the full-fledged Charlieman Army will not like it. In order to maintain the offensive awareness of the troops, the headquarters of the 6th Army of Charlemagne ordered the front-line troops to promote an active strategy of organizing limited offensive battles. Even in the minimum combat operations of the rebels, they must repay their opponents and implement the "Warfare" written by Prince Wang. The credo of "Triple Strike Back" in "Planning". However, in front of the Defense Forces perfecting the powerful position system and artillery, this behavior only provided the opponent with the opportunity to refresh the record and let the soldiers bleed in vain.

The generals of the 6th Charlemagne did not seem to realize this. If they realize that this provocative act is futile, it may save many precious lives-soldiers, their own.

Just yesterday, Lafayette saw a colonel battalion commander wearing a clean and straight military dress with a medal on his chest. From a distance, he looked like a rooster-wearing a shining chain armor, alive. cock. Perhaps it was thought that the sharp-eared sniper could not hit the target 12oo meters away. The colonel stood like a wooden stake straight above the shelter command post, holding a telescope to observe the opposite trench, and reported to the staff who desperately begged him to enter the underground. roar.

"At such a long distance, they can't even hit the elephant!!!"

I don’t know if the colonel said it out of his own experience and self-confidence, or to encourage morale. No matter what other people think, the sharp-eared gunners went with him.

A loud noise ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ Then... there is no more. In order to hit this target, which is harder to beat than an elephant, the opponent used heavy caliber heavy artillery. The place where the colonel once stood is now a big pit with a diameter of 3o meters and a depth of three or four floors. The search team has been busy for most of the day, and finally found only a twisted and broken medal that can be sent to the colonel's family.

After a series of incidents, the soldiers squatting in the trenches understood it, and their views on the generals also changed. To put it bluntly, Charlieman soldiers began to lose trust in their generals. The generals who were considered brave and talented before could not break the deadlock on the battlefield, while ignoring the pain and **** sacrifices of the front-line soldiers. This "indifferent" attitude made the soldiers feel chilly. Under the suppression of the military discipline and the gendarmerie, it may not be able to turn over the big waves for a while, but it is enough to dispel the illusion of war for many people.

Lafayette is one of them. His blood was already extinguished, and now he only hopes to escape from this nightmare and return home safely.

While he was shoveling the ground with complaints, Captain Pierre Psinelli's broken gong burst into his back.

"Lafayette! Lafayette!"

The second-class soldier turned around in a hurry and stood upright and saluted. In front of Captain Psiniri, who is known as an expert in military capacity, any omission may attract a curse, and in serious cases, he will be pulled to "inject the spirit of the 6th Army." Under the education of sticks, the company's soldiers are considered top-notch throughout the division. With a single order, the actions were done in one go without any deviations or omissions.

After completing a whole set of actions like a conditioned reflex, Lafayette was stunned.

Not only him, but the soldiers who sneaked eyes around him also showed strange eyes.

Behind the captain with an unnatural expression, stood a delicate girl in a navy uniform. (To be continued.)
