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 210: Saxon-Style Tachanka

by karlmaks — After the Instruction Assault Battalion tore open the breach, the main force infantry of the ‘Assault Battle Group’ continuously poured through the gap. Once the follow-up infantry completely stabilized the line, Morin did not hesitate. He led the newly regrouped 1st Company to continue the forward assault. He sent out several Dispatch Riders: some to notify the other three companies to converge on the 1st Company’s position, and others to inform the allied forces to keep pace and provide cover.…

Chapter 242: Behind a Successful Man

by karlmaks — In a secluded laboratory at the Imperial Arcane Technology Institute in the suburbs of Dresden, Patricia von Seeckt frowned, staring intently at a pile of complex and delicate Magic Guided components. She wore a pristine white lab coat, her golden hair meticulously pinned back, revealing a clean forehead and refined profile. At this moment, her face, usually marked by aristocratic pride, was etched with frustration. “No... still no! The Magic Crystal oscillator frequency cannot stabilize! The energy…

Chapter 274: The Eiffel Tower vs. The Behemoths of War

by karlmaks — The tragedy on the Champ de Mars was immediately captured by the two Armored Airships hovering over the east of Paris. In fact, before the lightning had fully gathered, piercing alarms had already sounded on the bridges of L28 and L29. "High-intensity magic reaction detected! Bearing: Champ de Mars! Energy levels spiking rapidly!" "It's the Eiffel Tower!" Colonel Schneider, Captain of Armored Airship No. L29, rushed to the observation window immediately. He didn't even need binoculars to…

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…

Chapter 114 The Squad Firepower Problem

by karlmaks — Compared to attending a banquet, Morin found he preferred contemplating unit organization and equipment issues. And once he entered that state, he couldn't help but keep thinking. So, after considering the weapons for the assault team members, Morin felt that the riflemen should not be neglected either. Currently, all infantry in the Imperial Army were equipped with bolt-action rifles. Their accuracy was indeed good, but the rate of fire was too slow. In the increasingly fast-paced, rapidly…

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 178: Defensive Deployment for Street Fighting

by karlmaks — The Instruction Assault Battalion had suffered over one hundred and ten casualties after the capture of Liège Fortress, the surprise attack on Charleroi, and the brief but fierce cavalry engagement. Excluding those with minor injuries who could still fight, the actual combat reduction was already close to one-tenth of the unit. Morin knew clearly that compared to the bloody battle they were about to face, the previous engagements were, at best, mere ‘appetizers.’ General Ludendorff’s order was…

Chapter 189: Licking Wounds

by karlmaks — “At this rate of consumption, we can withstand one more general assault of equal scale from the Gauls at most.” The Quartermaster’s face was also grim, and he added worriedly: “At that point, we’ll have no choice but to fight them with bayonets.” The atmosphere in the temporary Battalion Headquarters immediately became heavy. Kleist and Manstein were silent, unable to think of any solution. Morin stared at the military map spread out on the table, his mind working at lightning…

Chapter 221: Living as long as the world

by karlmaks — On the bridge of the L24 Armored Airship, alarms sounded one after another, and red warning lights flashed continuously. The airship’s hull shook violently, the angle of inclination increasing rapidly, and its altitude continued to drop. Looking out the bridge’s window, thick smoke billowed from the huge rupture in the gas envelope, obscuring half the sky. Captain Hoffmann tightly gripped the edge of the captain's chair, trying to steady himself. He listened to the stream of bad news being reported…
