Chapter 252: Blocked

by karlmaks — A wave of indescribable stench, of burning flesh, quickly spread, overpowering the thick smell of gunpowder and blood, causing Erik to retch violently. He watched in horror as the Gallic soldiers in the flaming Trench twisted and struggled, finally collapsing into human torches spewing black smoke. This was war. The Instruction Assault Battalion soldiers beside him seemed impervious to it. They advanced relentlessly into the depths of the Trench in small, coordinated teams, utilizing automatic weapons,…

Chapter 284: The Necromancer’s Ambition

by karlmaks — The ear-splitting brakes of the Radiant Crystal Vehicle screeched in the temporary camp, its wheels carving two deep ruts into the muddy ground. Before the truck had fully stopped, Morin shoved the door open and jumped out of the still-swaying vehicle. He stumbled slightly but quickly regained his footing and hurried toward the 'Odin' train, which lay on the tracks like a steel behemoth taking a nap. The camp was illuminated by the lights of the Armored Train and numerous oil lamps; sappers and…

Chapter 103: Returning Home and the Noblewoman

by karlmaks — When the room fell silent again, Graham walked over to the wall. As he approached, the wall of the room gradually became transparent, eventually disappearing completely. He gazed out over the Palace of Westminster across the Thames, recalling the brief conversation he had just had. Although the surviving Mage's words were incoherent, the information they revealed caused a slight unease within him. The Saxons... they seemed to have truly achieved some kind of progress he was unaware…

Chapter 135 Assassination

by karlmaks — Archduke Franz Ferdinand, now 51, had only one thought as he reviewed the Austro-Hungarian troops stationed in the Sarajevo suburbs. This was a sluggish, outdated, and insular army. While seemingly massive in size, it was, in reality, unwieldy and inefficient. The backwardness was not only in weaponry and tactical doctrine. More fatally, this multi-ethnic army lacked a single common language for internal communication. In some units, there were even cases where soldiers could not understand…

Chapter 167: Lost Contact

by karlmaks — Just as the smoke from the explosion had not yet dissipated, more hand grenades suddenly flew out from the thick smoke covering the bridge surface. The black iron lumps rained down overwhelmingly onto the small area of the South Bank bridgehead. This was followed by a continuous series of fierce explosions. The spherical hand grenades currently equipped by the Saxon Army are not actually very powerful, but the Assault Battalion soldiers threw so many at once... Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! The…

Chapter 199: A New Nickname

by karlmaks — From August 12th to August 14th, the entire operational area under the Second Army Group underwent earth-shattering changes. With the complete fall of the Namur Fortress Cluster and the decisive control over Charleroi, the main forces of the Saxon Second Army Group and the Ludendorff Battle Group, like floodgates opened, rapidly deployed along both banks of the Sambre River. The spearhead of two hundred and sixty thousand troops was aimed directly at the heartland of the Gallic Republic. On the…

Chapter 231: Command from the Sky

by karlmaks — Countless unit tokens representing both enemy and friendly forces flashed and moved clearly on the map. Every unit’s designation, troop strength, and casualty status were presented to him in data form. Morin’s gaze quickly found the position of his Imperial Guards First Instruction Assault Battalion on the map. He saw that Steiner’s 4th Company and the Battalion Headquarters unit were still holding the South Bank bridgehead of the railway bridge, establishing a secure evacuation route based on…

Chapter 263: We Received Support from an Armored Airship

by karlmaks — Morin, lying in the shell crater, gasped for air, but his nostrils were filled with the acrid smell of smoke mixed with blood. He had just survived a life-or-death duel. Although he had won, the feeling of his heart trying to leap out of his throat had not completely subsided. He glanced at the corpse of the 'Sentinel' he had dragged into the crater. The enemy's dark gold mask reflected a faint glow in the dim light. These Gaulish Battlemages were completely different creatures from the Britannian…

Chapter 295: Imperial Guard Instruction Assault Unit

by karlmaks — "Imperial Guard," this term directly defined the status and affiliation of this unit. Without limiting it to specific formations like battalion, regiment, brigade, or division, but establishing it independently as "Unit X," granted it great flexibility. The detailed planning section of the proposal also verified Albert II's speculation. The current plan was to first expand this unit into a full-strength reinforced regiment-level unit. In the future, it could be further expanded to brigade-level…

Chapter 82: Inspection

by karlmaks — When Morin received the news that His Imperial Highness the Crown Prince would be inspecting the troops, he was leading the soldiers of the 1st Company in practicing earthwork. In fact, the Saxon Army, and armies worldwide, already had the concept of digging trenches, but they were mostly shallow, 'half-man-deep' early trenches where soldiers would lean forward. Human armies have a long tradition of building field fortifications, but at this time, it was not yet thorough or systematized. Morin was…
