Alien Empire Total War

"Forward! Third Battalion, forward!"

"Blow the snare drum and play the military horn!"

Accompanied by the melodious and brisk military music and the rhythmic sound of the drums, the soldiers of the third battalion dressed in blue uniforms walked in an orderly pace under the leadership of the officers to Oka, who had completed the formation. The Loos army advances.

With their numbers at a disadvantage, the Okalos took a defensive stance against an enemy far outnumbered by them. They methodically loaded their ammunition, but their eyes were fixed on the slowly advancing Rumon Kingdom army. .

In this atmosphere, the new recruits on the Rumen Kingdom side no longer had the excitement they had before, and they were also infected by the emotions of the veterans, making them even more nervous.

"Check your firearms, mistakes on the battlefield will only cost you lives!"

Charlie, who was walking on the side of the line, turned his head and ordered to the soldiers beside him. Under his eyes, he found that many soldiers were too tense and their legs were weak and trembling. It got messy, some people walked fast and some people walked slowly, he hurriedly maintained the front and asked them to supervise each other in groups.

Perhaps because of the benefit of the football match, the soldiers of each group developed a certain tacit understanding on the field. After Charlie reminded them, they quickly maintained the marching front, and then looked at the other companies. They have not yet fought their lines. It has become distorted from the original flat, and even protruding and concave bits have appeared.

In the absence of artillery on both sides, the battlefield before the battle was silent except for the bugles and drums of the third battalion.

When the distance between the two sides was within 200 meters, the Okalos troops who were waiting in line began to shoot one after another, and dazzling flames exploded in front of their lines, and the smoke quickly obscured the sight of both sides.

The shooting accuracy of about 200 meters was not as low as Charlie imagined. In less than a few seconds after the gunshots rang, several soldiers in the marching queue fell to the ground. The blood spattered from their wounds made the surrounding soldiers There was a commotion, and some nervous soldiers also began to raise their guns to fight back, but were stopped by the corporal and sergeant in the queue.

According to the Infantry Code of Rumen Kingdom, the best shooting range of a musket is within 150 meters. If you want to pursue higher killing efficiency, you need to let the infantry travel within a range of 100 meters to shoot, but in their As you advance, you will also be met with salvos from the enemy round after round, and no army can withstand such an attack without being defeated.

"Go on! Don't be afraid!"

Captain Doyle, who was leading the team at the front, encouraged the infantry under his command loudly. At this moment, a bullet swept his body and flew behind him, hitting the chest of a soldier who was praying to the gods. He only felt a sharp pain spread from his chest, and then he collapsed on the green grass.

The comrade-in-arms behind the dead soldier stood up without saying a word. His eyes didn't stop at the twitching body on the ground. He didn't dare to look at it, because he was worried that the next person to fall would be him.

"All stand!"

Finally, after facing several rounds of shooting from the Okalos, the 3rd Battalion stopped at a position of about 150 meters. Under the command of the officer, the soldiers began to disperse their positions so that the people in the front and rear rows could Shoot at the same time.

"Aim your gun!"

Swish—

"Fire! Fire all!"

Along with the roars of the officers of each company, the line infantrymen who were aiming their guns pulled the trigger one after another. The flint hit the fire door heavily, the sparks ignited the gunpowder, and the smoke immediately enveloped the entire front. Inside, the gunshots rang out for a moment, and the Okalos army standing opposite them fell instantly.

"Go on! Go on!"

Dududu-

In a new round of horns, the infantrymen of the 3rd Battalion stepped out of the "defense line" composed of gunpowder smoke while loading the muskets in their hands. After the gun was loaded, he raised the gun over his chest, pulled the trigger, and a soldier on the opposite side was shot and fell.

And at the moment he fell, Charlie's mind sounded the cold count of the system - 11/40.

The company continued to advance. With their own superiority in numbers, they fired at the enemy as they advanced, and soon reached a position of about 100 meters. Then they launched a salvo at the enemy again, and inflicted greater casualties on the enemy— At the same time, it also dealt a heavy blow to the low morale of the Okalos, which shook their fighting spirit.

After this round of salvos, the third battalion continued to advance. Both the veterans and the transformed recruits had already touched the skirt of the goddess of victory. They cheered loudly and fired another round when they advanced to the fifty-meter position. A salvo, and then, in the vain variation of the passionate horn sound, the entire battalion charged towards the precarious enemy line—

Although it is a charge, it is more appropriate to describe it as chasing deserters. After a volley from 50 meters, the remaining Okalos soldiers completely collapsed, turned and fled, and their fragile backs were exposed. Under enemy gunfire, their hapless battalion commander was killed by one of the bullets in the final salvo, and the captains and company commanders were quickly chased, though futilely trying to salvage the fleeing soldiers. The soldiers who came up hit the ground with the **** of their guns and became prisoners of humiliation.

Charlie didn't chase after the soldiers, and walked to Captain Doyle with the smell of gunpowder, looking at the body of the unfortunate battalion commander who died of a headshot, and teased: "Sir, it seems that this battle is going on. The regiment gave us the opportunity to train troops, what do you think?"

Doyle naturally understood what he meant. He looked at the recruits who were chasing the deserters. The latter were no longer recruits after this battle. No matter if they killed an enemy with their own hands, at least they will be in the next battle. I can control my nervousness.

At this moment, a cavalryman suddenly rushed from afar. He held the flag of the Rumont Kingdom in his hand to show his identity, passed through the chaotic crowd, and ran all the way to the location of the camp flag. Charlie and Doyle looked at it suspiciously. Looking at the cavalry, after a while, Charlie murmured.

"That's the messenger, what happened?"

"If you read it correctly, it should be the flag of the brigade headquarters, Cross, you gather the soldiers here, and I'll check the situation." The captain instructed, and then trotted all the way to the direction of the messenger.

Charlie shrugged and decided to stop thinking about this problem, and instead looked at the reward given to him by the system - the task of killing 40 enemies under three salvos of a platoon of 60 soldiers was really simple, and he completed it very smoothly. This task is rewarded by the system.

[The mission is completed, a team of hunters has been recruited, and 2,000 gold coins have been issued. 】
