Because of the scarcity of magic soldiers, in addition to their better protective equipment than ordinary soldiers, even their weapons are superb. Even if they are just ordinary G43 gun sticks, they are also equipped with eagle eye sniper scopes. Can be a cameo sniper.
The only difference is that professional snipers can guarantee the lethality of guns and guns, while the snipers who make cameo appearances are worse. ability.
The magic guide soldiers who can't use sniper marksmanship directly aim at the dense area of the enemy with pyrotechnic bombs, which is equivalent to small-caliber artillery shells, and they still aim at that, and then run away, which is more accurate and faster than artillery.
War can never be without casualties, no matter how elite the equipment is.
The Freedom Assault Rifle of the Free Magic Alliance is equipped with the double scope of Gonzalo, and the marksmanship is generally more accurate than that of other countries. Those precise shooters are also equipped with high-power scopes.
Although the Free Magic Alliance does not have the sniper class yet, it is slowly developing the sniper profession.
As long as both sides on the battlefield dare to take the lead, it is difficult to guarantee that they will not be killed by snipers. This is the disadvantage of the later stage of trench warfare. Once it falls into a stalemate, it can definitely drag the two sides to collapse.
In the past morning, three people were killed in the infantry squad where Calvin was in, and all of them were careless soldiers.
The battle started from the initiative of the Free Magic Allies to take the initiative to attack, to the tentative attack, and finally to directly hide in their respective trenches and shoot black guns.
There are a large number of magic soldiers in the Melox Empire, and there are also many magic soldiers in the Free Magic Alliance. From time to time, fireballs and pyrotechnic bombs fly over on both sides of the battlefield, causing violent explosions.
The only thing that surprised Calvin was Galahad. This guy who only passed the recruit training was still alive and well, and he jumped up and down to observe the battlefield secretly from time to time.
Calvin saw the bullets fly past Galahad's head several times, and the corners of his mouth twitched.
"The bullets seem to be avoiding him." Calvin muttered subconsciously.
"Squad leader! Aren't we going to attack?" Galahad squeezed to Calvin's side and asked.
"Offensive!" Calvin raised his voice subconsciously, he was really laughed at by Galahad.
Now that the bullets are raining outside, whoever dares to come forward will be beaten into a sieve. This kid actually wants to attack.
"Your head is abnormal!" Calvin shook his head and said.
Galahad made a gesture and said: "The enemy is less than 300 meters away from our nearest area, we can dig a tunnel and kill it."
Calvin just wanted to scold, then his eyes widened.
"Dig a tunnel! You know this?"
Galahad nodded. He had only used this tactic in simulated exercises, but he was defeated by the magician. However, after much research, as long as the magician cooperated with the cover, he should be able to approach the enemy without any danger.
Without a word, Calvin pointed to the ground next to him and said, "Give you a chance, you will dig into the trenches of the three companies next door from here."
Galahad nodded and picked up the sapphire shovel without saying a word.
Calvin looked at ease, and finally settled down on this chatterbox. Anyway, he couldn't call him in half a minute. One more of him, less of him would have little effect.
He had also participated in the war, but the current war is completely different from the previous one. The continuous trenches and fortifications have completely divided the battlefield, and any traditional infantry maneuvering tactics have lost their meaning.
At this time, there were no open flanks on the battlefield. The troops had to attack from the front. However, they were greeted by terrible firepower. The firepower composed of heavy machine guns and artillery slaughtered all attacking troops. survive such a battle.
Both the United Army and the Free Magic Alliance must admit the reality that the battle has completely become a war of attrition like a meat grinder.
This dire situation forced the combined army that created trench warfare to make a choice, that is, changes must be made on a larger level, otherwise the blood of the empire will be completely drained in such a war of attrition.
Prior to this, Aslan had repeatedly asked officers to use flexible infantry detachments into battle. In the border battle last year, Gawain generally used ambush and detour tactics in the ridge area. lost heavily. But this kind of tactics born by the creativity of junior officers cannot rise to the campaign level, because it is easy to be copied.
Just like today's battle, the Free Magic Allied Forces have been learning and using them, and they have made many rounds to prepare to attack the back of the Third Army, but they were all repelled by Arthur as expected.
In the middle of the night, Arthur was sitting in the swaying command headquarters, looking at the notebook in his hand, which recorded a new tactic that Aslan had given him.
Arthur decided to experiment with the tactics that His Majesty had explained to him.
He made changes to the organization of the 211th Brigade and incorporated some temporary units. At the same time, Arthur also made changes to the tactics, requiring elite infantry units to be sent across the front under the cover of artillery fire before the large troops attacked. , and opened up a ditch. When the main force is attacking, it should advance in the form of several combat groups, rather than killing them all at once.
In the early morning of the next day, during the night attack and counter-night attack, the two sides fell into a brief calm.
The 211 Brigade, which was adapted by Arthur, began to appear on the battlefield, followed by fierce artillery fire, which blinded Montgomery.
They seem to be the attackers!
Their proud trenches soon fell, and his eyes widened at the new tactics of the Consolidated Army.
The infantry crossed the front under the cover of artillery fire. Small groups of troops and ditches advanced, and several battle groups advanced from all directions. On the surface, it looked like a mess, but it effectively divided the arrangement of trench firepower.
When the battle sounded, Calvin watched secretly. Perhaps because the enemy was attracted to the past, his location was not shot by bullets for a long time, and then he saw a shocking scene.
The 211 Brigade successfully broke into the battlefield, jumped into the enemy's trenches, and fought hand-to-hand with the enemy in the trenches. In the trenches, the 81-bar rifle finally showed its hideous fangs, and the continuous firepower quickly swept the Free Magic Allies in the trenches. clean.
Occasionally, there are fish that slip through the net, or professionals want to start hand-to-hand combat. The length of the free rifle and bayonet is not easy to deploy. Instead, the 211 Brigade is equipped with a trench knife, which is similar to a normal dagger, except that copper knuckles are added to protect the palm. , Experienced professionals can even use these brass knuckles to resist the enemy's attack, and can also be used as a punch to kill the enemy in battle. The most important thing is that this weapon is short and capable, which is very useful in narrow trenches.
