Chapter 339: 339 sudden death
Chapter 339 Sudden Death
It is a pity that the troops of the Northern Dwarf Empire do not have heavy machine guns. Therefore, the tactics of the Ice Kingdom are invincible when facing the troops of the Northern Dwarf Empire!
Unless there are sharpshooters who can barely suppress the machine guns, the troops holding flintlock guns are simply unable to compete with Maxim's level of mass murderer.
What's more, expecting soldiers with flintlock rifles to play at the pace of snipers is not an option worth looking forward to.
“Chuchuchu!” In the distance, the annoying, uncontrollable and continuous sound of gunfire started again.
The roar of the heavy machine gun is simply a reminder of death, echoing in the ears of the soldiers of the Northern Dwarf Empire, like a kind of pious salvation.
"Damn it! Why haven't they run out of bullets yet? Don't they pay for their bullets?" the already slightly desperate commander asked with a cry.
He didn’t really want an answer, because he also knew that no one would give him an answer at all. He just wanted to vent, vent the despair and helplessness of being crushed.
Looking at it, the soldiers of the battalion that had just been filled were lying on the ground. They were bombarded twice by artillery and shot by machine guns for several minutes, and then there were not many left.
The soldiers who finally survived were defeated from the front line in fear and retreated to the place where they had just started, only to suddenly find that none of their comrades seemed to have returned.
Although it is not full strength at all, there are at least 400 people in a battalion. In less than half an hour, there are less than 100 left. Anyone who sees this will feel collapsed.
The royal flag of the Frozen Kingdom flying in mid-air is getting closer and closer to Ironforge, and there are more and more white flags erected around it.
Fearless and fearless is just an adjective. When the battle becomes a crushing situation, the vast majority of people will choose to go with the flow and surrender.
"Sir! Your Majesty!" Seeing his immediate superior looking at a white flag raised high on the flank, the embarrassed battalion captain had no choice but to remind him.
He is still waiting for reinforcements, otherwise, all his soldiers will die on the battlefield! It is not easy for him to come back. If he casually retreats during the battle, it will be easily misjudged by the supervising team.
"The right wing...is finished!" The commander who came back to his senses felt that his luck had almost ended here.
The flanking positions have surrendered, and this has become a dangerous front line. This is not the most terrifying thing. The most terrifying thing is that there is no way for them to retreat behind them. The walls of Ironforge are riddled with holes. , just a few hundred meters away.
"Hold on! I have no troops to support you!" The commander glanced at his men and ordered loudly.
"Sir! You can't ignore..." The battalion captain had to keep his mouth shut in the middle of his sentence. Because, he saw that his immediate superior had already drawn the flintlock gun from his waist.
"Reserves, follow me! Fix bayonets! Fight back the enemy! Get back the lost positions on the flanks!" The commander with the pistol was not trying to kill others as a warning, but was preparing to lead the charge.
He encouraged his soldiers loudly: "For Ironforge! For the Northern Dwarf Empire! Attack! Attack!"
"For..." The soldiers behind him were just about to shout a tragic slogan together, and then charge with their bayonets, when their shouts were interrupted by the roar from the opposite side.
“Hurrah!” The soldiers of the Ice Kingdom who had captured the enemy’s position let out a deafening shout. This war was really exciting for them.
The enemy is as vulnerable as a piece of paper. As long as they advance forward, the enemy will quickly collapse and retreat. To be honest, Moss has never fought such a devastating battle. The battles in the past that required fighting for a whole morning and finally annihilating 600 enemies were not worth mentioning in the face of this war.
What's more, because the other side didn't dig any trenches and didn't have any decent defensive positions, several armored vehicles supported by the Datang Group managed to reach the front line and turned into a heaven-defying war machine.
Due to the limited accuracy, the soldiers of the Northern Dwarf Empire cannot use or think of those methods of attacking the wheels.
Coupled with the relatively flat and open terrain on the battlefield, these armored vehicles really became primitive tanks.
After they appeared on the battlefield, they arrogantly attacked the enemy in a hail of bullets, and then calmly started shooting from above with the Maxim machine guns on them.
It is unrealistic to expect a flintlock gun to penetrate steel plates, especially from a distance of a hundred meters. Therefore, those soldiers of the Northern Dwarf Empire who fired their guns from a distance undoubtedly became stupid targets for being shot.
However, even so, the limitations of armored vehicles were clearly exposed in this experimental battle.
Before the enemy could attack, three armored vehicles coming from afar broke down and were damaged halfway through the attack.
Of these 10 armored vehicles that went all the way from the rear to the front with great effort, only 6 reached the front, and as a result, 3 of them went on strike before entering the war.
Of the remaining three vehicles, one fell into a bomb crater and rolled over, and the driver inside was injured as a result. The wheel of another vehicle was accidentally hit by a bullet, and it also lost its combat effectiveness midway.
Only one successfully participated in the battle and achieved actual results - it captured a small high ground without any effort and defeated the 1,000 defenders on it.
It was the appearance of this monster that completely defeated the psychological defenses of the Ironforge defenders, allowing surrenders to begin on a large scale.
Hundreds of Ironforge defenders laid down their weapons and surrendered their defensive positions. This caused the entire frontal defense to waver.
By the time the garrison commander finally stabilized his position, it was already the afternoon when the battle broke out.
Finally risked his life to gain some breathing time. Before the defenders of Ironforge had time to eat a late lunch, bad news came one after another.
The first bad news is that the 20,000 defenders in the south were penetrated by the enemy's defense line, and almost all of them were wiped out. They had no choice but to retreat into the city and rely on the city walls to continue to resist.
The second bad news is that the northern defenders surrendered. Facing the 10,000 Ice Kingdom cavalry troops on the north side, they lost the courage to continue fighting and put down their Cyric flintlocks.
The third bad news is that because the first two bad news came into the city, the owner of Ironforge, the old Emperor of the Northern Dwarf Empire...he could not breathe and died suddenly...

Today’s work is not considered to be a make-up. In fact, I wrote 1,000 more words. I really didn’t finish it. I will continue to make up for it tomorrow...
