Chapter 256: Chief of Staff Seeckt’s Support

by karlmaks — General Mackensen's order was quickly disseminated. Before long, the core staff team of the First Army Group Headquarters hurried into General Mackensen's command tent. Leading them was the Chief of Staff of the First Army Group, Lieutenant General Seeckt. He was a lean-faced general in his middle years, known within the Saxon Army for his outstanding organizational abilities and profound tactical thinking. When Seeckt and the staff officers entered the tent and saw Morin standing in front of…

Chapter 255: Creeping Barrage and Assault Group Tactics

by karlmaks — "Morin, what I just told you, that's still not the end of our trouble..." General Mackensen's gaze shifted to the other side of the map, to the Rouen area on the flank of the First Army Group. "The Britannia Expeditionary Force entrenched in Rouen is like a starving wolf eyeing our rear flank." "According to the latest intelligence, their second batch of reinforcements has arrived at Rouen Port, and their total troop strength now exceeds 170,000. This means they are capable of launching a…

Chapter 254: The Army Group on the Edge of the Cliff

by karlmaks — When Morin spoke those two words, Mackensen and Leonia simultaneously let out a sigh of relief. It felt like a person about to drown had finally grasped a life-saving straw. "Morin, quickly, what is the method?" General Mackensen appeared impatient. He stepped forward, placed both hands on the field table, leaned in, and stared intently at Morin. Though Leonia did not speak, the sudden brightness in her eyes said everything. "General, Your Excellency Grand Master, don't rush," Morin signaled…

Chapter 253: The Commencement of the Shell-Armor Confrontation

by karlmaks — The first thing Morin did after retreating to his own trenches was to have Klaus notify the 1st Company of the Instruction Assault Battalion to temporarily withdraw from the combat sequence and rest where they were, awaiting his new orders. What kind of joke was that? Knowing full well that the First Army Group's tactic for attacking the enemy trenches was simply to sacrifice lives, and yet he should send his men up to die? That would make him a completely heartless battalion commander. The fine…

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 251: A Reassuring Figure

by karlmaks — Stepping out, Erik realized the ground beneath his feet was not solid earth as he had imagined. After days of shelling from both sides, compounded by heavy rain, the area between the two Trenches was a sticky quagmire mixed with body parts, shrapnel, and blood-soaked mud. Every step he took was like a tug-of-war with death. The massive, grey skirmish line surged out of the Assault Trench, throwing themselves relentlessly toward the Gallic position several hundred meters away. The thin morning mist…

Chapter 250: The Boundary Between Life and Death

by karlmaks — September 3rd, early morning. The morning mist over the Creil region had not yet dissipated, clinging viscously and coldly to every inch of the muddy ground. The Saxon assault yesterday afternoon had been repulsed once more. The surviving soldiers hastily retreated, and the command post halted the offensive, issuing no new attack orders. Continuous assaults over several days had cost the First Army Group over twenty thousand lives on this trench line, which the Gauls had gone virtually ‘All…

Chapter 249: The Intact Shaped Charge Armor-Piercing Round

by karlmaks — Although they reacted quickly, attempting to immediately converge and form a back-to-back defensive formation, it was too late. The moment they turned their Armored Knights, the ground around them came alive. Armored Knights in dark green camouflage, covered by camouflage nets, burst from the ambush pits like demons from hell. Their speed was astonishing. In just a few breaths, they completely severed communication between the three ‘Siegfried I’ machines, isolating and surrounding…

Chapter 248: Ranger VS Teutonic Knights

by karlmaks — The Saxon Major soon led the unit to advance in the direction the farmer indicated. The three infantry companies, led by their respective officers, swiftly dispersed from their dense marching column into loose search formations and began moving toward the small copse of trees. Out of caution, the Major kept the fourth company as a reserve and positioned his battalion command group toward the rear of the center, right next to the three towering ‘Siegfried I’ Armored Knights. The presence of these steel…

Chapter 247: Trap

by karlmaks — September 1st. Exactly one month after the war began, the massive army of the Saxon Empire stood at the gates of Gallic Republic’s capital, Paris. Under the operation of the vast War Machine, countless soldiers, artillery, and vehicles were continuously mobilized from Amiens and even within the Saxon Empire, moving southwest. Amidst the surging torrent heading toward the outer defense lines of Paris, a distinct unit drew considerable attention. Their vehicles were painted with the conspicuous Imperial…
