Chapter 325: Night Reconnaissance

by karlmaks — In the following days, while the instruction unit gradually completed assembly, they also conducted emergency training for the officers and non-commissioned officers sent by various units of the First Army Group. The elite non-commissioned officers and grassroots officers from various divisions of the First Army Group were like "starving young beasts," trying their best to learn as much as possible in a short time. After all, this training content related to the success rate of their subsequent…

Chapter 324: When Their Blood Dyed the Earth

by karlmaks — One hundred and twenty meters. For a well-trained athlete, this was just a sprint distance of a dozen seconds. Even for fully armed soldiers, running on flat ground wouldn't take too long. But between two defense lines filled with barbed wire, shell craters, and mud, this one hundred and twenty meters was the absolute boundary between life and death. The sharp whistle was still echoing in the air when those North American Legion soldiers in khaki uniforms vaulted out of the trenches and set…

Chapter 323: Gradually Professional Trenches

by karlmaks — The moment he stepped into the communication trench, it felt like entering another world. The sky overhead was compressed into a long, narrow gray ribbon, flanked by earth walls over two meters high, completely isolating the scenery outside. Beneath his feet were neatly laid wooden boards that creaked with every step. As Morin walked forward, he carefully observed the structure of this trench. He found that the fortifications built by the First Army Group here were entirely up to the standards…

Chapter 322: Western Front Standoff Continues

by karlmaks — Inside the massive semi-underground fortification, the space was divided into several sections. Several army group staff officers were busy at their respective desks, the ringing of telephones and the "tick-tack" sounds of telegraph machines rising and falling. A huge Western Front campaign situation map hung on the wall, filled with various tactical symbols marked in red and blue arrows and notations. The atmosphere was tense yet orderly. As soon as Morin walked in, he immediately attracted quite…

Chapter 321: I Saw With My Own Eyes Morin Carrying Milk into the Army Group Headquarters

by karlmaks — The platform of the Koblenz train station was crowded with people, and field-gray overcoats merged into a flowing tide. Although the scene seemed chaotic, every trickle was converging towards a predetermined direction. Regarding returning to the battlefield, none of the officers and soldiers of the instruction unit actually felt surprised. Those veterans who had rolled in the bloody mud pits of Charleroi, Amiens, and Creil, although they had long understood the cruelty of war, knew from the day…

Chapter 320: A Parting Gift

by karlmaks — The winter of 1914 seemed to arrive unusually early. During the time Morin was busy leading the instruction unit in intensive training, the calendar on his desk was turned to the last page, and Koblenz saw its first snow. Although the temperature dropped sharply, the intensity of the war showed no signs of cooling down. The war machine of the Saxon Empire had completely operated to its limit. According to news circulating within the Army Department, as well as the constantly updated content in…

Chapter 319: Ludwig: I Grew Machine Guns on My Shoulders?

by karlmaks — After the full-regiment joint practice ended, the air in the Koblenz base lost some of its previous tension but gained a dull restlessness. That feeling was like a pack of young wolves that had just tasted blood, lying in their den licking their claws and teeth, waiting for the next hunt. And Morin didn't give the troops too much time to rest. Since problems were exposed in the exercise, they had to be corrected while the iron was hot. So many subsequent training contents were also adjusted based…

Chapter 318: Who is the Imperial Recruits’ Most Hated Person?

by karlmaks — Dresden, Saxon Empire, Army Department Building. Outside the window, leaves fell on Unter den Linden, and the chill of early autumn had descended on the heart of the Empire. Inside the Operations Conference Room with a huge map hanging on the wall within the Army Department building, the temperature was so high that participants couldn't help but unbutton the collars of their uniforms. Brand-new reports were placed one by one on the table in front of the participants. There was no "Top Secret"…

Chapter 317: Oh No, We’ve Become the Imperial Guard…

by karlmaks — The offensive exercise in the plan was essentially a test of the unit's deployment and coordination capabilities. So, with an order from the headquarters, the soldiers at the assembly area gathered again under the command of their battalion and company officers. Then began the first subject—a ten-kilometer armed cross-country run. Unlike the training back at the camp, the focus of this armed run was to reach the "Line of Departure," which was about three kilometers from the "enemy" forward…

Chapter 316: The Instruction Unit’s Monthly Exam Results Were Not Ideal…

by karlmaks — Various bad news gathered continuously through horse-riding messengers to the command vehicle where Morin was. Soldiers who hadn't ridden in cars much got carsick, drivers fell asleep while driving, rear-end collisions occurred... Inside the carriage, the atmosphere was so oppressive it almost materialized. Of course, this oppressive atmosphere was mainly concentrated on a few headquarters officers. Morin, on the contrary, acted like an outsider, calmly listening to problem after…
