Chapter 576: The Edge of the Bayonet (Part 2)

Distance, 700 meters.

Crystal dewdrops slowly moved forward on the gray plain.

There was a dull sound of neat and rapid metal boots stepping on the soft mud and grass.

The heavy infantry holding square shields in front raised advanced flintlock rifles and approached the defensive position of the Ring Island Alliance, which was pouring out small fireballs.

Neat and uniform.

The army moved forward.

There was no chaos due to fire suppression, nor did they rashly deploy the formation and move forward quickly because they were close to the enemy.

As a collective, a neat and uniform march is the fastest way to advance the marching formation to the enemy's front. Every step outside of discipline is a mistake.

Military drill requires every soldier to be loyal to his duty.

Steadily move forward.

Hundreds of soldiers who were temporarily recruited from the Ring Island Alliance mining station raised their bolt-action rifles and fired at the infantry lines approaching them. The bullets of the bolt-action single-shot rifles were not enough to penetrate the shields supported by the infantry troops, and only revealed spreading ripples when they fell on the barrier.

The 20 mechas of the garrison concentrated their firepower to destroy the four protective barriers, but those soldiers quickly dispersed into a linear formation before the shields were destroyed, minimizing the damage caused by the explosion of the fireball.

The infantry line of the Holy See had already approached 300 meters in this short period of time. They raised their rifles and continued to wait for the array to approach 200 meters.

Xu Yan roared at other lords to use all the biocatalysts stored in the warehouse and send them to the front line, whether as cannon fodder or to attack the enemy line, and not let the enemy get closer.

"Aren't those things used for emergency purposes? Just inject the mutant beast blueprint and send it to the front line... Stay away from these things after the injection! Why haven't the reinforcements of the cavalry arrived yet?"

They are different from Ji Lin who relies on heavy firepower... Xu Yan has reason to believe that once the other party enters the right distance, they will launch a bayonet charge on their weakest line.

Bayonet charge, quickly pulling the battle into hand-to-hand combat, was once the favorite tactic of the lords of the Ring Island Alliance.

Xu Yan knew that the five or six hundred armed miners in this mining station plus the rock elements that served as transportation equipment in the mine were not enough. He had to triple the force to have a chance of defending.

He looked at the human figure with white wings rising behind the front line, the priest troops of the Holy See using air equipment, and spat.

It was really unpleasant to be occupied by others for air supremacy, and he hated birdmen the most.

It was not good to look like birdmen.

You are pretending to be nothing. When the fleet comes, we will beat you all into grandsons.

It would be great if there was support from the sky ship. The six heavy ship-borne fireball generators on it could fire one construct at a time, and it would be no problem to deal with the protective shield supported by this infantry line.

"Commander Xu! The injection is completed, and all the trained mutant blueprints have been released to the battlefield!"

The lord in neat military uniforms ran over quickly.

Trained creatures can still maintain consciousness for a short period of time after being injected with mutagens, and then gradually be engulfed by crazy emotions. Soldiers who have experienced it said... It is a feeling of being hit by chaotic emotions, as if the emotional valve in the body has lost control for a moment, and all secretory organs cannot judge the physical condition and secrete hormones normally.

Only the Fifth Era Ring Island Alliance cannot do biological examinations for each of them. They know that the injected creatures can still maintain consciousness for a period of time.

There is still a distance from the army of Standard Mining... But if they can't even beat the invaders on the ground, what qualifications do they have to compete with others.

The giant bat that still retains consciousness and Xu Yan look at each other, flaps its wings and rises into the sky, and then a large number of gray-fur dire wolves rush out of the ground front of the Ring Island Alliance mining station.

Bayonet.

The short knife mounted on the rifle can temporarily turn the rifle into a substitute for the short gun.

This is the most suitable weapon for hand-to-hand combat that has not yet been invented, and it is also the last line of defense for soldiers when they run out of ammunition and food.

Just stab forward to kill the enemy.

The bayonet saw blood.

This is also the most direct means for the Church to fight against the charging monster infantry.

"Monster cavalry charge! Team 1 shield formation! Teams 2 and 3, switch bayonets to anti-biological mode, ready!"

The centurion began to issue a counterattack order the next second after observing the mutant dire wolf. The soldiers in the marching state immediately inserted the heavy shields into the ground, and the connected counter-attack formation can reduce the impact force to a minimum.

The mutant dire wolf, as heavy as a car, tore the protective barrier and crashed into the infantry line of the Church... but did not break through.

They began to tear the line composed of heavy infantry with their claws and fangs.

Casualties increased.

The bayonet rotated and inserted into the body of the tiger-shaped mutant beast. The bayonet engraved with the faint divine runes sank into the flesh and blood, and the infiltrated divine power paralyzed the flesh and blood.

One by one.

The dire wolf stabbed with bayonets wailed and fell to the ground.

The mutant beasts that once caused heavy casualties to the Teutonic Knights, and the mutant beasts that the Ring Island Alliance had high hopes for.

Because the number of them was too small, they were dissolved and diluted by the scattered infantry lines, and disappeared like snowflakes thrown into boiling water.

The soldiers in the army replaced their bayonets, raised their shields, and bypassed the bloated meat on the ground.

Keep going, move forward.
