Chapter 173: Cavalry Mobility

by karlmaks — “Machine Gunners! Open fire!” The Sergeant roared hoarsely. Two MG14 Light Machine Guns began to fire almost simultaneously. “Da-da-da-da-da!” Two whips of fire furiously lashed toward the wall of charging cavalry three hundred meters away. A dense spray of bullets rained down. The Sergeant and all the soldiers stared intently forward, anticipating the sight of the enemy being thrown from their horses. However, the scene that unfolded next stunned everyone. The expected sight…

Chapter 205: New Orders

by karlmaks — “Let’s go, Captain Morin. The General is waiting for you.” Seeing Morin frozen in place, the Major officer urged him again. “Yes, Captain,” Morin recovered, shoved the three letters into his inner pocket, and followed the officer to board the Staff Car. The small car sped north, quickly arriving back at the Second Army Group’s temporary headquarters. Walking into the familiar yet somewhat detested command tent, Morin immediately saw General von Bulow standing around the map. Seeing…

Chapter 237: Equipment Request Report

by karlmaks — One piece of good news, one piece of bad news. One was heaven, the other was hell. Joffre and his Generals were caught in an unprecedented dilemma. Abandoning the favorable situation in the South and withdrawing the main forces to defend Paris? That meant all their previous efforts and sacrifices would be in vain. For Joffre, who had always believed that ‘offense is the best defense,’ this was unacceptable. But ignoring Paris could lead to disaster. “We cannot withdraw! Absolutely not from…

Chapter 269: A Shell Fired for Death

by karlmaks — The colossal roar when 'Gungnir' fired was completely different from the heavy, resonant sound of conventional artillery. It was more like a sharp detonation that suddenly filled everyone's ears, making their chests feel tight and their heads dizzy. Even Morin, Leonia, Lucas, and the accompanying Magitech Engineers recording data, standing at a safe distance with their mouths open, felt the same chest constriction and dizziness. Morin even saw the air in front of the muzzle visibly distort due to…

Chapter 56 Target the Tie-Wearers!

by karlmaks — Morin quickly moved through the ruins and shadows of the buildings with two squads of reserve soldiers. His thinking was clear: given the combat effectiveness displayed by the Britannians, a frontal confrontation was suicide. To relieve the pressure on the flank, they had to disrupt the enemy's attack rhythm. And the most effective way to disrupt the rhythm in street fighting was to try to take out their commanding officers. The characteristic of officers in this era to charge to the front…

Chapter 88: The Bud of Tactical Thinking

by karlmaks — Morin entered the battalion headquarters tent with a forced surge of energy. Major Thomas, at this moment, was looking quite energetic. Well, Field-grade officers do have military horses to ride, after all... He was standing before a simple camp table, on which a military map had already been spread out. Once the four Company Commanders were all present, Major Thomas went straight to the point, circling a place name on the map. “Gentlemen, this is the objective of our 1st Battalion’s…

Chapter 120 How Can Anything Succeed With These Insects…

by karlmaks — Morin initially heard this sentence and was confused. He didn't understand what this had to do with Cecilia, but as Patricia continued to explain, he roughly grasped the fucked-up situation. “Although our Saxon Empire nominally follows a development path that combines brilliant crystal technology and arcane technology, these two technical paths have existed with fierce conflict and competition alongside their cooperation.” Patricia's tone lost its initial lightness and became somewhat…

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 184: Stealth Conquers Steadiness, Recklessness Conquers Stealth

by karlmaks — In South Charleroi, at the Temporary Command Post. After the 1st Company repelled the Gauls’ first wave of assault and confirmed that the 1st Company’s defense line was temporarily stable, Morin immediately rushed back here by Military Truck. Because all three companies were under heavy defensive pressure after the all-out attack began, calls for instruction were constantly flooding the Battalion Headquarters. So Kleist and Manstein had called him back, hoping he could preside over the general…

Chapter 216: I’ll Get You a Letter of Recommendation After the War

by karlmaks — “Earthworks?” one General asked with some confusion. “Exactly,” General Mackensen’s tone was unequivocal. “Since the open ground in front of the enemy’s positions lacks cover, we will take matters into our own hands and create cover for our soldiers!” “We will dig a parallel Attack Trench, and from this trench, we will dig several Communication Trenches forward, extending right up to the enemy’s position!” “We will pave a safe assault route for our attacking troops, right…
