Chapter 154: Infiltration

by karlmaks — While the Air Drop operation was launching, inside the Second Army Group Command Post, General von Bulow was anxiously reviewing the results of the ‘Meuse River Battle Group’s’ attack from today. Smoke filled the Operations Room. The gigantic map on the wall was covered with marks from various red and blue pencils, but the red arrow representing the offensive spearhead was firmly blocked outside the Liège Fortress cluster. The failure of the entire day’s offensive made the Army Group…

Chapter 153: Gentlemen, See You on the Ground

by karlmaks — Morin followed the officer, passing through the long internal corridor, and arrived at the Bridge located in the forward section of the airship. The Captain of L28, the bearded middle-aged man who suffered a heavy loss during the day, grinned when he saw Morin. “You must be Captain Morin? I heard about your plan. You truly are a bold fellow! Only a lunatic like you could come up with such a mad operational plan!” Although his tone sounded like an insult, his eyes were full of praise and a hint…

Chapter 152: The Madman’s Plan

by karlmaks — Human thought is capable of leaps. Just like Morin now. When the thought of "bread for five hundred thousand Marks each" flashed through his mind, he inevitably thought of the mustachioed man passionately giving a speech in the Beer Hall. Then, he inevitably thought of the Second World War in the other world. And then, he thought of how the German Army in WWII dealt with even sturdier Belgian fortresses like Fort Eben-Emael. Airborne! The moment this word flashed through his mind like a shock…

Chapter 151: A Tough Nut to Crack

by karlmaks — For anyone with a slight understanding of World War I history, the name Ludendorff will not be unfamiliar. Morin was naturally no exception. As he held that slightly plump but powerful hand, looking at this major figure who, in another world, would eventually become the Quartermaster-General of the Saxon Empire and even participate in the infamous ‘Beer Hall Putsch’ after the war, a feeling of utter unreality surged into his heart. A living Master Lu! The feeling was marvelous, like looking…

Chapter 150: Master Lu

by karlmaks — “Da-da-da-da-da!” Signaled by the opening fire of twelve MG14 Light Machine Guns, the remaining rifles and dozens of MP14 Submachine Guns of the 1st Company opened fire simultaneously, the harsh gunfire instantly tearing through the night sky. A dense rain of bullets mercilessly lashed out at the group of completely unprepared Flanders soldiers. Since there were no tracer rounds, the enemies rushing at the front fell down in swathes, as if swept by an invisible scythe. Blood and shattered…

Chapter 149: Instruction Assault Battalion’s First Battle

by karlmaks — Morin took the order, opened it, and the content was simple: Due to the excessive consumption of supplies at the front, a large Supply Train needed to be immediately organized to transport ammunition and supplies to the ‘Meuse River Battle Group’s’ attack assembly area under the cover of night—the Instruction Assault Battalion was responsible for the escort along the route. The order also required the Instruction Assault Battalion, upon completing the escort mission, to directly join the…

Chapter 148: Armored Airships Are More Than Just Big!

by karlmaks — “5 near misses! All guns, reset firing parameters based on calibration data!” Inside the transparent observation gondola beneath the bridge of the Zeppelin Armored Airship, the Observer grabbed the nearby call device and shouted loudly into the microphone. His forehead was slick with nervous sweat, and his eyes were fixed through binoculars on the Barchon Fortress below. The shell impacts from the previous salvo had been wildly off-target. This was unavoidable. As soon as the ‘Meuse River…

Chapter 147: Assault on Liège

by karlmaks — The unit of the Second Army Group responsible for the main attack on the Liège Fortress cluster was the ‘Meuse River Battle Group,’ a temporary formation consisting of six infantry brigades and three cavalry divisions, totaling nearly sixty thousand men. The Battle Group Commander was General Otto von Emmich. Morin had little impression of this general, knowing only that in the world before he crossed over, this man nearly failed to take the Liège Fortress... The vanguard of this Battle…

Chapter 146: Benchwarmer

by karlmaks — “You’re half right.” Morin nodded in approval. “Think about it, what kind of unit is our Instruction Assault Battalion that we are training?” Morin did not wait for Manstein to answer, but began to analyze on his own. “We are a direct unit of the General Staff, bearing the title of ‘Imperial Guards,’ and we are a pilot unit that the Crown Prince personally oversaw and strongly supported.” “Sounds like a grand title, right?” Manstein subconsciously nodded. “But…

Chapter 142 Europe Is Boiling!

by karlmaks — On the afternoon that Austro-Hungarian diplomatic personnel left Belgrade, Morin, accompanied by Manstein, left the busy War Office building and walked down the steps in front of it. Over the past few days, he had made several trips to the War Office and even one to the General Staff Headquarters, dealing with various administrative and documentation issues related to the Teaching Assault Battalion. After finishing this month's work concerning personnel matters, soldiers' pay, promotion assessments,…
