Extraordinary Voyage Chapter 947: The Bloody Crown and the Cthulhu Action
Time flies by, and in a blink of an eye it comes to the early spring of 220 Haiyuan calendar. The world war has lasted for three full months.
In the early days of the war, the Hilius army fighting alone, under the sudden frenzied attack of the Sark Empire, had no choice but to withdraw from the first line of defense, the Winterthur Mountains.
After converging with the tulip support troops that finally arrived, a second line of defense was re-established on the "Ulk River". After the line of defense was the plain area of Mapingchuan, the heart of the empire.
Sha Sha Sha...
Precious rainwater during farming seasons in previous years can only be annoying at this time, silently soaking the clothes of the soldiers in the trenches, and also taking away the little heat they have left.
Moreover, even though the temperature under the drizzle is still a bit cool, the air is still filled with the lingering smell of human remains.
And, some soldiers sobbed faintly.
Boom! Boom! Boom! ...
The shells exploded next to the soldiers on both sides, leaving one crater after another enough to make people lie in it.
"Charge! Take the bridgehead!"
"Kill!"
On a front that stretches nearly two hundred kilometers, the primary task of the Democratic Alliance is to seize bridges.
With an order from the frontline commander, countless soldiers on the east bank of the river jumped out of the trenches with rifles and charged towards the bridgehead controlled by the monarch's coalition forces.
In the rain of guns and bullets, human lives are like weeds.
The 200-kilometer-long battle line is like a harvester, relentlessly and efficiently harvesting the lives of soldiers on both sides every minute and every second.
Boom! boom! ...
"Lie down! Get rid of the firepower!"
"Watch out for snipers!"
The standard equipment of the Democratic Allied Forces is an excellent rifle designed and completed in the 218th year of the Haiyuan calendar and named the annual infantry weapon.
Weight: 3.9kg, length: 110cm, operation mode: rotating and pulling gun shot; feeding mode: 5 rounds of built-in magazine; ammunition: 7.92mm; muzzle velocity: 755m/s; effective range: 1000m.
In the battle approaching within 1000 meters, although the rate of fire is much inferior to that of the 77, the accuracy and stability are excellent. There is no indelible generation difference with the 77 type, the biggest difference is only the elasticity.
However, with a large number of [gunners] reinforcements on the side of [Monarch’s Shield], in the basic group charge and sniper battle, the coalition forces of Sark and the lowlands are still inevitably at a disadvantage.
Even if the charge is launched at the same time, there is also the madly roaring [Giant Soldier·Forge Type III].
"Now that we have reached the plains, pull up our M217 rapid-fire gun!"
"Your Excellency!"
The Sac Empire suffered almost no loss in the "War of Overlords" thirty years ago, and it swallowed the colony of Hilius on the southern continent.
In addition to the original industrial foundation, with decades of accumulation, national strength and competitiveness in all aspects have indeed surpassed Hilius, and the military industry has its own uniqueness.
The commander of the artillery support was Admiral Andre of the Sark Empire, the commander-in-chief of the Western Front. He was also a Tier 3 knight who was under fifty years old, and he was the best member of the royal branch.
At this time, a pair of staring at the fierce front line, the gray eyes that are as sharp as eagles are full of coldness and mercilessness!
Since the royal branch does not have the right of inheritance, naturally there is no such thing as the rank, but this admiral is undoubtedly one of the popular candidates to succeed the emperor.
In fact, after doing that, under the propaganda offensive of "Allies", his voice became louder and louder.
The big capitalists promised that after the victory of the war, a "constitutional monarchy" could be implemented in the Sark Empire. In other words, Andrei and the capitalists would carve up the imperial power.
In fact, the "Royal Power Reform Plan" proposed by Ivan and Livina is to transition the complete feudal monarchy to the "dual system of constitutional monarchy".
The hereditary monarch is the head of state and has real power. The monarch appoints cabinet members. The government is fully responsible to the monarch. Although the parliament can exercise legislative power, the monarch has a veto power.
In this form of government, although the country has also formulated a constitution and established a parliament.
However, the monarch still maintains the authority of the feudal autocracy era, holds the power of the country alone, is the center of power, the highest actual ruler, and the country's military commander.
Now, the promise of capitalists to Andre is "a parliamentary monarchy."
Also retain the monarch to establish a parliament, but the parliament is not only the highest legislature of the country, but also the highest organ of state power.
The head of government elected by the parliament to organize the government is the true center of national power, and the monarch is just a symbolic head of state.
How much power he can have depends on the power he has after the war.
But even the symbolic emperor's position is much better than it is now.
Furthermore, although this army general is greedy but not stupid, he is not the only branch of the royal family without inheritance rights. Even if he does not agree, others will agree.
As for the current war not because of "revenge" at all but because of "selfish gain"? Oh, the crown of every superior person is cast by the blood of thousands of people.
They...should be honored!
Woo--!
As the M217 wild artillery began to take off, the screaming shells smashed into the position of the monarch's coalition army with a continuous scream, bursting into death flames.
The artillery fire is so dense, it's like a downpour.
The recoil of a normal artillery fire will push the body backwards away from the gun position.
Not only does it require artillery to push it back to its original position, it also limits the locations that can be selected when the artillery is arrayed. At the same time, the previous aiming has been lost, and the ballistic elements must be recalculated, which is time-consuming and inefficient.
The Sac Empire made improvements on this basis, and they creatively installed a hydraulic retreat and retreat mechanism for the artillery.
In this way, the recoil of the artillery is absorbed by the parking machine, which greatly reduces the force transmitted to the gun mount and prevents the gun body from deviating from the gun position.
The most-equipped standard artillery in the world-the average rate of fire of the Armstrong breech gun is two rounds per minute.
However, the M217 rapid-fire gun equipped with a retreat machine can eject 15 rounds per minute because it does not need to be pushed back to the gun position. The ideal limit state can even reach an amazing firepower of 30 rounds.
"Command, let our guns go up!"
As the monarch coalition launched a counterattack with artillery fire, a group of [youkai scholars] from the Principality stepped onto the battlefield.
Although it is no longer known how many "elemental turbulence bombs" have been detonated on the battlefield, the Wushuang mowing of the transcendents of the legal system and the secret infiltration of the assassin profession have been blocked.
However, a giant beetle called "Cannon Carrier" was summoned by the [Monster Scholars] in advance.
Squeak...
Although the "Cannon Carrier" is a behemoth with a body length of more than 5 meters, because it is completely mortal, each [monster scholar] can easily control a dozen of them.
The reproduction speed is extremely fast. It only takes three months from hatching to adulthood. As a biological weapon, it is not inferior to thermal weapons.
They have a giant capsule at the end of their abdomen, which can radiate a certain liquid at extremely high temperatures.
This kind of liquid contains toxic quinones. The quinones react violently with hydrogen peroxide in a chamber in their body and vaporize and explode upon contact with air.
Boom! boom! boom! ...
Under the command of the [youkai scholars], it seemed like a fiery incendiary bomb, covering the opponent's position with a higher intensity of firepower.
"Ah--!"
In the screaming screams~IndoMTL.com~Countless soldiers of the Democratic Alliance suddenly scorched their skins and flesh, and even the drizzle could not stop the spread of the fire.
In the first general battle named "Battle of the Ulk River".
The two warring parties have successively invested nearly three million troops: Tulip and Hilius’s [Monarch’s Shield] coalition forces of 10,000; the Sark Empire and the Lowland Republic’s coalition forces of 10,000.
In just seven days before and after, the number of casualties on both sides reached 500,000!
The corpses that were too late to converge even blocked the course of the Oulk River. Until the weather became warmer, the 200-kilometer river was still filled with a odor that was difficult to get rid of.
Since it was unable to quickly defeat Hilius, the initial strategy of the Sac Empire was completely bankrupt, and the Western Front of the Source Continent began to enter the stage of strategic stalemate.
At the same time, in the mundane world.
In the entire material world, the unprecedented scale of world wars has shrouded all continents except the "Eternal White Land" in the flames of war.
On the sea.
On the northern battlefield, Tulip's navy pursued Atlan with superior forces.
The Black Sea Fleet, the Golden Sea Fleet, and the Broken Star Sea Fleet of the Principality and the Federation totaled more than a hundred warships, fighting each other and shaking the sea.
......
It is still in the nameless world full of mighty blood, and the sounds of commands filled with incomparable blood are constantly echoing:
"Notify all members, end the deep sleep, our'capital tide' is doing a good job. Driven by selfish desires, the [Injustice War] will soon reach the threshold.
At this time, it doesn’t matter whether we win or lose. Human beings... are just our sacrifices to the sun in the spiritual world.
Prepare [Mythical Battleship·Nagilfa], 42 demon gods, we are ready to seize [Gate]! "
