Chapter 622 Promise (II)

The rain will eventually stop, leaving behind a muddy ground soaked in rainwater.

The signed attack orders will one day be sent to the frontline troops, and they will be sent from the trenches to the new meat grinding ground.

But human beings are fragile after all. It is difficult for ordinary infantry to truly open a gap in the front line. In a real high-intensity battlefield... elite spell-casting troops and assault troops cannot create such a gap for the commander.

Neither quantity nor quality can force the situation of the war to change.

War is always tough, and what they have, their enemies have too.

The Holy See needs a force with absolute breakthrough capabilities to tilt the balance towards its side.

A force with absolute breakthrough capabilities.

At a certain point in the battle line, combat troops are committed to create a gap, and then conventional troops will tear the entire line of defense from this point.

In order to achieve this goal, humans created cavalry and horse-drawn artillery in the colonial era, and artillery and tanks in the industrial era. All of these are enhancing their ability to make key breakthroughs.

And at a certain fork in history, humans mastered the method of creating high-level individual troops and used them as the sharpest spears on the battlefield.

Even though the Holy See has conquered many worlds, it is not economical or cost-effective to train a high-level warrior. The resources they have only allow them to cultivate less than twenty paladins.

Each paladin can only annihilate at most three behemoth units when put into the battlefield at a single time, and the cost of training a paladin can cultivate more than twenty behemoth units that are not weak.

But being able to defeat giant beasts with a human body is not in itself a proof of the power given to humans by gods?

In order to shorten one difficult war after another, under the incomplete gifts of the gods, agents of the gods appeared in different fields.

They not only represent the sharpest spears, but also the purest symbols of civilization erected by the Holy See.

Paladin.

Follow the precepts and master the power in different areas according to your talents.

One man becomes an army.

As the sharpest spear on the battlefield.

In a sense, all the troops under the Paladin are 'their' servant army.

If the value of breakthrough can be quantified from data, more than 90% of the breakthroughs in the unit where the paladin is located are provided by the paladin.

They have no less say than frontline commanders, and both sides have the same command level.

"I need a copy of the true situation on the battlefield, the actions you initiated and all casualty data."

At least let me know how big this mess is.

The long-haired paladin stared at the frontline commander of the Holy See.

Noi took a deep breath.

The bombs brought by those giant steel birds not only destroyed the temporary warehouses they used to store supplies, but the frontline headquarters was also destroyed in the fire.

Also destroyed were most of the unbacked battlefield map survey data and the action data they had compiled.

He suddenly felt a little lucky that the enemy's attack destroyed the proof of their command error.

As for how the enemy knew the location of their underground headquarters...he was reluctant to think about this problem.

The priest troops and elite assault troops in his hands were exhausted just to maintain order in the camp.

"Your Excellency Leia, the data was lost in the enemy's attack... It will take some time to sort out." He organized his thoughts and considered his words: "We have indeed advanced to a distance of five kilometers in front of the target. I believe the front line is A breakthrough will surely be achieved with the support of the Privy Council.”

They simply lacked enough soldiers.

"I don't ask why you don't ask for the help of the first paladin to arrive in this world. You must apply for new paladin support from the Privy Council."

Leia raised her head and looked at the sky where raindrops were falling, recalling the magical impression she had received.

From the outside, the coalition fortress is far less massive and hard than the strongest fortress recorded by the Holy See.

It seemed too small for a fort, not too big.

It does not stretch for dozens of kilometers, does not have a large number of mage groups, and does not have behemoth units stationed for defense.

Compared with those heavy permanent fortresses that took decades to build, this fortress built on soft black soil seemed too simple.

And the history is long enough for them to be mentally prepared for the price of capturing a fortress... and for the casualties.

“I also don’t want to pursue the frontline’s negligence.”

That's not a paladin's job.

Leia stretched out her hand, and the long sword condensed with white light turned into substance and fell into her hand.

Moreover, the current casualties are far from reaching the threshold, and the only way to pursue the investigation is that the frontline did not complete the plan according to schedule.

"Let's go, Ann, we should go see the enemy's fortress...I'm really curious about what Yvelve went through."

If the other party is really easy to deal with, then she won't lead the vanguard and do nothing.

"install?"

Leia turned to look at the paladin standing in the rain.

"Ann wanted to help the injured, but the sound coming from the rain made Ann very uncomfortable."

"Is that the paladin who came to support us?"

A priest doctor was holding a bucket of holy water, and his eyes fell on a girl not far away who was standing under the silver cross praying. She was surrounded by stars of light that turned into silver rain and fell into the rune grooves at the bottom.

The flowing silver light fell into the outer pool along the lines carved on the white stone, and the dizzy light instantly merged into the water.

With the assistance of the holy warriors, rituals and rune arrays, the flowing holy water filled the temporary outer pool.

Duty, sacred domain.

She increased the total holy water production of the entire front by 50%, so that soldiers and even the redemption army could use sufficient holy water to recover from injuries.

The sufficient holy water instantly curbed the increasing casualties of soldiers due to poor medical conditions.

"Really... excellent technology."

The leader of the priest doctor said softly, retracting his gaze that briefly stayed on An.

"I don't know which news the command will be more interested in..."
