Chapter 21

Knights of the Church vs German infantry platoon

Translated by SoundDestiny
Edited by Klepon

 

 …gruaaaahhhhh!

 

“They’re coming! Second Lieutenant ────, destroy them”

 

“『Roger that!』” 

 

The German soldiers did not raise an eyebrow at the sight of a thousand moving corpses approaching them.

 

Once they had given the order, they moved at their own discretion.

 

“『Gunner, Mortar, Ready!』”

 

“《…Roger!》”

 

The second lieutenant, commander of the one German platoon Nasser summoned, sent instructions into a radio at his side.

 

A very high performance which relayed its voice clearly.

 

What about the mortar gunner who replied wirelessly────?

 

………

 

…..

 

Bakooon! !

 

Far end of the main street leading to the church.

 

One light mortar group was lined up in a row of 50mm mortars, looking imposing, with no intention of hiding.

 

It was small and had a shape that was grounded to the ground.

 

The 50mm leGrW36 mortar, a small mortar with a large calibre, was also available in a wide range of sizes.

 

Several of them attached themselves to three guns each.

 

The mortar team commander, wearing the rank insignia of sergeant, gave orders for observation of impact and corrective fire.

 

“『confirming impact! Landed behind enemy lines! Elevation angle plus 2° up──Calculating….Good shot! 』”

 

“『Roger! Loading! 』”

 

“『Fire!!』”

 

The gun operator stood by with the mortar only half-loaded – from half-loaded, he dropped the shell as instructed by the sergeant.

 

Zudoon!!!!

 

Loud sound came from the calibre.

 

Cracks became larger as the bottom plate dipped into the cobblestones.

 

Presumably the impact of mortar fire was tremendous.

 

Looking up from below, one could see the mortar shells hurl and launch.

 

And a moment later it landed in the midst of a thousand moving corpses.

 

Hyurururururururuu────

 

── Booom!!!

 

“『Confirmation of landing of standard artillery!──……a hit, A HIT!! Continuing fire……. Efficacy shot aaaah!』”

 

“『『『Roger-Aaa!!』』』”

 

The gunners started to operate the other two mortars with a clatter.

 

They set the sights the same as the reference given to the first mortar squad.

 

After completing the operation in a familiar manner, they half-loaded a 50 mm shell.

 

“『『『Ready!』』』”

“『The squad is in full force….Fire!!──』”

 

Zudodoooooon!!!

 

Three mortars were firing simultaneously.

 

It was enough to show the power of firepower in all its glory.

 

The soldiers’ uniforms flapped and rippled as they spewed back from the mortar.

 

Beyond that, three 50mm shell with glistening glints and tails of nitrogenous smoke rained down on 1,000 moving corpse────

 

All of it was coming down…… 

 

Coming down…..

 

More shots..

 

──and then some more!

 

Dogaaan!!!

  Dogaaan!!!

    Dogaaan!!!

 

 Fire!!!

   Fire!!!

    Fire-Aaa!!

 

※ ※ ※

 

Hyurururururu…… zudōn! !

 

The sound of a terrifying explosion echoed after the sound of cutting through the air.

 

Every time that sound came flying in, they were shattered into tiny pieces of metal.

 

Even now.

 

Right in front of Nasser’s eyes,   Dogaaan!!! and exhilaratingly blown away by what the Church called the real Knights of the Church.

 

They were rotting corpses and white corpses.

 

They were also mummified corpses and waxen corpses.

 

It was stinking up the place.

 

They were blown to pieces by the mortar blasts.

 

Uuuー……

 

AuAuー..

 

Gururuー…..

 

A swarm of snarling, moving corpses with broken swords and spears ready to devour Nasser and his soldiers, but then, right under their noses, a series of shells rained down on them.

 

They were coming closer, but the continuous barrage of mortar shells that rained down on them turned most of them back into mere corpses.

 

The chief priest did not know that his thousand church knights – all of them – were in range.

 

The corpses were just meant to be burned to a crisp by the shells.

The confident chief priest, who had been so confident in his ‘undead knights’, was unable to form any sentences with his mouth agape.

 

That was because, by the time Nasser had arrived,

 

He had followed the advice of his second lieutenant and deployed a mortar team before opening fire.

 

It was originally a mortar squad deployed to blow up the church headquarters, but it was proven to be more useful.

 

Where did they come from anyway?

 

『German Infantry Platoon』

 

Nasser opened up the status screen to check, his summoner Lv had increased in a short period of time.

 

Once the Germans evolved from squads to platoons, what they could do increased dramatically and the options also became more diverse.

 

The breakdown included three regular squads, as well as

 

One second lieutenant as commander, and one additional light mortar group.

 

This was one platoon.

 

Even a single German soldier was ridiculously strong.

 

Now it had a platoon. And there were three of them and an additional mortar squad.

 

‘Oh, that’s really good.’

 

Nevertheless, this was the first time Nasser had seen what was called a curved fire, and it was a great thing.

 

They could strike unilaterally from far away, out of reach of the enemy’s weapons.

 

Its power had been demonstrated without regret zudon, zudon, boom! and shells raining down blow up the moving corpses in an interesting manner.

 

They were dull, smelly and fragile.

 

They certainly had a frightening appearance, inviting disgust and fear in those who saw it. On top of that, they were dead to begin with – a little shooting or cutting was probably not enough to kill them…

But…

 

“—-Blowing them to pieces, whether they’re alive or dead, it’s the same thing, isn’t it?”

 

Nasser smiled smugly.

 

Behind that smug, the chief priest was blue in the face.

 

“W-wha-what..What is this? Aaa,Ahh! You’re using lightning magic!”

 

For those unfamiliar with German military weapons – “I see” – they would assume it was…… magic.

  

 

──but it was not.

 

This was a person’s ……. No, it was the wisdom of killing.

 

“I knew you were a heretic! There are people who use magic secretly and stealthily …… but I don’t want you to look down onme”

 

DON! and the chief priest with his sceptre started chanting cheerfully.

 

“────……God. Protect us from the impure. Sacred Wards Holy Barrier!”

 

Spaaaah! and a dome of light spread out around the chief priest, covering a large area of the battlefield, including the Church Knights.

 

“Behold! This is the miraculous gift of God…! Warding magic of the highest order of priestcraft! What is the magic of heretics, ────”

 

Dokan, Bon, Zun!!!!

 

The speechless corpses were blown away in a messy mess.

 

Already ─ 

 

…… the smell was amazing.

 

“….Eh? Aa? What?”

 

“An idi-ot..it’s not magic,……Enough, I’m tired. I’m sick of smelling them – Second Lieutenant, just destroy them.”

 

“『Roger — All Squads ready for free fire! Objective, Frontal Enemy Line』”

 

“『『『Ready!』』』”

 

Jakijakijakijakijakijaki

 

With an air of great violence, the German soldiers raised their guns in unison.

 

Nasser also dived into the turret of his Panzer II.

 

“『Firee..aaa!』”

 

Banbanbanbababababababa

 

Dozens of the undead who managed to cut through the range of 50 mm mortar shells.

 

However, the opponents they were trying to attack were not defenceless soldiers.

German infantry. The rifle they were holding ─

 

Mauser K98 – bolt-action rifle, 7.92 mm calibre, high-powered rifle.

 

The weapon they use could crush a human being with a single hit.

 

A moving corpse – if it was hit in the head, only a chunk of flesh would be left.

 

Then,

 

A moving corpse that flopped down after a series of shots.

 

Some of them were still alive, but that only postponed their destruction. It could not even attach itself to the German ranks.

 

That was right.

 

The real deal was not the riflemen. The god of war ─ no.

 

Reaper of the battlefield, ────

 

“『Each squad, MG’s!! Fire!!!』”

On receiving the order to attack, the junior officer of each squad gave the firing order to the machine gunner and loader operating the MG34 light machine gun.

 

There was one for each squad.

 

There were three guns for a total of three squads.

 

“『『『 Fire!』』』”

 

Soldiers operated the machine guns with unleashed movements.

 

Their movements were sophisticated, like a single machine.

 

When their movements were full of violence and killing ────, the trigger was finally pulled.

 

Bababan…. 

 

Babbabbababababbababbabbabababbababababbababababa! ! !

 

It was a mercy.

 

The poor undead who were still trapped and mistreated in death.

 

Yes, their soul ─ …….

 

The fetters of their rotting flesh.

 

The cage of bones…

 

…and from the chains of the church.

 

It was the machine gun that made the undead finally rest.

 

One support firearm per squad.

 

Its name was

 

MG34 – multi-purpose machine gun. It could be operated as a light machine gun when operated on a bipod and as a heavy machine gun when mounted on a tripod.

 

Excellent machine gun capable of firing 7.92 mm rounds at 800 rounds per minute. …….

 

It was a ruthless instrument of war.

 

It was a masterpiece machine gun that supported the German Army in its early days.

 

“W-what,What is it, what are you people?”

 

The chief priest stood defenseless in a church site that had turned into a battlefield

 

He was protected by his torturers.

 

Bullets flew around the area, but miraculously not a single shot hit him.

 

“Miracle?”

 

No, Nasser had deliberately instructed them in advance not to be hit.

 

The chief must not be killed by a stray bullet.

 

Nasser wanted to make it worse.

 

“Second Lieutenant, take care of the rest – Panzer II, let’s roll!”

 

“『Roger!』”

 

After receiving a salute from the second lieutenant, Nasser dived his body into the turret and instructed the driver to move forward.

 

“To the front!”

 

“『Roger!』”

 

Gyaragyara!!

 

Far more powerful engine sound than Panzer I.

 

And speed!

 

The steel carriage moved forward, crushing the cobblestones.

 

In front of them, through a barrage of mortar shells – was a swarm of undead trying to get on top of the panzer while being hit by bullets ……──── 

 

“But what about it?”

 

Baribaribari!! and the bodies were run over with a thump, making a sound like wood being processed in a sawmill.

There was the sound of knocking on the Panzer. 

 

Gently looking through the inspection holes, it appeared that the undead were attacking the tanks.

 

“Hahaha! It’s not going to work,— Sergeant.”

 

Nasser spoke to the tanker..

 

and the corners of his mouth twisted.

 

“Drive through..until we reach that priest.”
