Clash of Lords: Civilization Game Comes to Reality

Chapter 563 The Zigzag Gray Line (V)

Time 22:00.

The shaking of the earthquake woke Feng Ryan from his sleep. In his vision, there was only the spreading light, and the scarlet flames were spreading uncontrollably in the trench defense line.

The soldiers wearing pointed helmets were huddled in the trenches waiting for the rain of death to stop. This simple temporary trench could only block part of the destructive force. The next thing to do was to pray that the shells would not fall beside him.

Feng Ryan saw that the surface suddenly rose up and erupted with a mixture of flames and mud. Ten mud fountains mixed with flames rose instantly on the No. 4 bastion array.

He saw the magician armor of the lured spellcaster on the formation was torn into a rag bag by the spreading flames and shrapnel in the next second.

"What happened!" Feng Ryan grabbed an officer who ran past him and slapped him: "Don't stand there in a daze, speak!"

"Bombardment! Bombardment!" The officer said in a hoarse voice: "Our formation encountered a large-scale bombardment by the coalition forces. At present, the trench line of the No. 4 bastion has been completely disconnected. The fortress artillery group has no response. We need to retreat to the headquarters defense line to reorganize the troops..."

His voice was even covered by the explosion in the distance for a moment. Fortunately, Feng Ryan could tell what the officer was saying.

"We can't stay on the battlefield, we must retreat immediately!" The officer said: "This is the first round of artillery fire. The temporary trenches can't hold up. We must defend against artillery bunkers. We must leave the trench defense line and retreat to the bastion!"

He was right. The trenches in front of the bastion could not effectively resist the coverage of heavy artillery. At best, they could slightly weaken the power of some artillery shells.

In order to fight against the possible mutant beasts, the Teutonic Knights placed a lot of disposable explosives on the front line. Now all these disposable explosives have become accelerants for high-explosive incendiary bombs.

The pouring rain ignited everything within the soldiers' sight.

"Who would spend time and effort to build an anti-artillery bunker!" Feng Ryan cursed: "Where did these Easterners get the ultra-long-range heavy artillery? With this firing frequency, did they pull all the heavy artillery of the army here to fire at us!"

The soldiers of the Teutonic Knights dug the bunker without considering that their positions would be attacked by the entire heavy artillery group. After all, the enemy has a small number of artillery and heavy artillery, and they are all ultra-heavy siege mortars with a caliber of more than 400mm... It doesn't matter whether there are artillery bunkers or not to deal with such things.

If these siege mortars with a caliber of more than 400mm fall near you, you will die no matter where you hide.

Fortress artillery and siege mortars fired at each other, and the soldiers who were consumables suffered forever.

Those Easterners also liked to use a kind of explosive pack buried in the body to projectiles. This kind of accuracy was not high, and it could even be regarded as a poor quality mortar that could send dozens of kilograms of explosives to the enemy's head.

The accuracy of this thing was so poor that it was outrageous... But it could send a few kilograms to dozens of kilograms of explosives, which was much more powerful than 6-pound guns and 12-pound guns at close range.

It was disgusting. The explosive packs fired from hiding in the trenches had caused countless casualties to the Teutonic Knights' defense.

Don't these people lack explosives?

Feng Ryan saw a brief flash of light on the beachhead not far away, and thought that the soldiers of the coalition forces began to hide in their trenches and attack with explosive packs.

Then he saw a pure mud column rising from the surface - this time there were only shock waves and fragments of varying sizes in the mud, and no other shells brought flames.

However, there was no flash of heavy artillery firing farther away, only those Orientals who liked to use explosive packs to fire a brief flash.

Feng Ryan could not see the light produced by the muzzle of the heavy artillery when it was fired within visual range. In the night, it seemed that he could see the black army gathering like a tide, and the shadows as tall as the city wall stood up from the surface, and the behemoth troops were already in place.

After ten seconds of rapid thinking, his brain came to the conclusion that the other party was about to start the siege.

He looked up at the bastion belonging to the Teutonic Knights. The towering outer walls of the bastion also collapsed in the flames. This time, there was no mud to cover him and he could see more clearly.

The orange-red flames were thrown around at the moment of the explosion, splashing sticky burning materials like water drops, falling on the surrounding wooden buildings and starting to burn.

The giant beast at the far end began to lean down, using its body as a bridge to connect the two ends of the Rhine River. The high-speed cavalry began to flow into the flame formation that had just been swept by the artillery like pouring down black ink.

Then the infantry began to quickly break into the trenches and start mincing meat.

"These lunatics would rather risk being accidentally hit by friendly artillery than fill the gap with their own troops?"

Feng Ryan wanted to say something, he raised his head and saw with his excellent dynamic vision that a projectile with a metallic luster in the light fell beside him.

He only had time to curse before he was drowned by the flames of the high-explosive shell.

Until his death, he didn't figure out where the coalition forces got so many heavy artillery.

In the last moment before his death, he saw a large number of flames begin to rise over the city wall inside the fourth bastion.

Feng Ryan suddenly realized that the defense line established by the Teutonic Knights along the Rhine might not be able to be maintained.
