Doctor, I'm really strong!

If a veteran were present at that moment, upon hearing that whimpering sound, he would immediately lie down and resign himself to fate.

That was the sound of large-caliber heavy artillery shells slicing through the sky.

Fifty kilometers away from the Kazimir Army, rows of triple-mounted 300mm fortress guns were roaring.

Five hours earlier, the Casimir Legion had been spotted by the Terra Red Army's reconnaissance aircraft. However, the Casimir Legion below showed no intention of air defense or counter-reconnaissance. A mere twelve land-based ships swaggered into the range of the Red Army's fortress artillery.

These electromagnetic railguns have an effective range of over 100 kilometers. They waited until the enemy was within 50 kilometers before firing, and reconnaissance aircraft were deployed in the sky in advance. It was clear that they were preparing to take them out in one fell swoop with heavy artillery.

A very simple battle plan that took full advantage of the enemy's underestimation of them—this was Talulah's doing.

To be honest, when she heard that a mere twelve land-based ships dared to venture into Yansk's defense zone, her first reaction was that these people were talking nonsense.

But then Talulah realized that the enemy had no idea about the range and power of Terra Red Army's artillery, so it was normal for them to make such a mistake. Since that was the case, they should take advantage of this and wait for the enemy to walk into their trap.

Then, this group of people very kindly charged straight into the area within 50 kilometers. Since they were already here, they decided not to leave.

To ensure the destructive effect, the shells used in the first round of shelling were all guided shells, equivalent to artillery-launched missiles, which can be fired and forgotten, and can strike with precision. Thanks to the Snow Pheasant Missile Research Institute for its public relations efforts, the little snow pheasant is still very capable in scientific research.

Since the enemy did not detect anything unusual, did not take any evasive action, and would not even attempt a counterattack, the first round of shelling was entirely worthwhile, equivalent to bombing an ideal target.

Nearly a ton of shells easily tore through the land-based ships' armor. Since these ships were all in a standby, idle state, they took a real hit. In addition, the largest of these twelve ships was only a medium-sized ship, the rest were small ships, and there was even an old ship that was just there to make up the numbers (it was past its service life). They were all thin-skinned and vulnerable. After this round of concentrated attacks, all twelve ships were rendered useless and became stationary targets.

Next came the Katyusha rocket launcher, a copy of the Soviet Hail rocket launcher. Although it was an old weapon from the Cold War, no one doubted its destructive power when those 122mm rockets rained down on them.

The kill radius of each rocket here is calculated using a football field as a unit. If you were to circle it with a map, the Kazimir Army's position would be completely covered in red.

But this is just the beginning.

Chapter 205: It Ended in an Instant

(Two chapters today, one more to come (～￣▽￣)～)

Given the firepower of the Terra Red Army, the Qazimir Army's garrison is already nearly cooked; any more fire and it'll burn.

"Where are you, Yuanya, Yebin, and Huihao?"

Flametail crawled out of the half-destroyed compartment, calling out the names of its companions.

She is in a very bad state right now. She feels like the whole world is shaking, and she walks with a limp. Some part of her body is protesting against her owner's rough use. It is obviously an injury that has made her body unable to function properly.

"Damn it! Where are the enemies?!"

Nobane's shouts came from the ruins, and Flame Tail rushed over, but fell two or three times along the way.

Ignoring his own situation, Flametail found Wild Bunny amidst the ruins.

"Wild sideburns!"

Flame Tail called out to the other person and then went forward to check on her condition.

Upon seeing Flame Tail, Nobane seemed very happy: "Flame Tail! That's great, you're alright. Where are the others?"

As Flametail tried to push away the heavy object pressing down on Nobunaga, he said, "Hurry up and get out, then we can both go look for them together. That way it'll be easier to find them..."

The sound of the flames abruptly ceased.

She had originally intended to try to pull Yebin out of the rubble, but with a little force, she pulled out one of Yebin's arms, the other end of which was almost entirely skin and flesh.

At that moment, both Flame Tail and Nobane were stunned, neither of them reacting.

After a moment, Nobane asked with some doubt, "That... it shouldn't be mine, right?"

Flame Tail realized what was happening and noticed the bloodstains on the ground.

The next second, Nobane screamed uncontrollably, "No! That's not mine! That's not my hand! I can still fight! I can still stand up! I'm not crippled! I'm not! I'm not!"

Wild sideburns desperately tried to break free, but she couldn't; such strenuous activity would only worsen her bleeding.

"Stop! Stop! Wild Bunny, stop, stop! You'll be killed!"

"I don't believe it! I don't believe it! This isn't me! I can't be a useless person!"

For Nobane, fighting was the entire meaning of her life, the only guarantee that she could struggle out of the filthy and dilapidated slums and find a way to survive. Only a complete body could support her fighting spirit.

Everyone knows what losing an arm means for a competitive rider.

If she were crippled in the arena, she could at most smile and face death, fighting to the death in the end. But here, on the battlefield, glory means nothing; they haven't even seen the enemy yet.

What's the point of these deaths and injuries? What's the point?

It took Yanwei a lot of effort to calm Nobane down, or rather, if Nobane hadn't calmed down, she wouldn't have had enough energy to continue her rampage.

Flame Tail found a barely usable first-aid kit from the wreckage of the landship. By this time, more people had gathered around, all searching for anyone who could be saved. At this moment, any medical supplies were precious and could even lead to bloodshed.

"Help! Help!"

"Help! There are still people alive here!"

"No, you can't die! My brother, you can't die! Medic! Medic! My brother is dying!"

Flame Tail was relatively lucky; she escaped with Wild Sideburns and bandaged her up, but a more pressing problem loomed before them.

All the landships were turned into burning torches, and the Kazimierz Legion suffered heavy losses.

Whether the command system even exists is questionable, and they also have an even more dangerous enemy—the cold.

After leaving the burning area of ​​the landship, the surrounding temperature quickly dropped to minus forty-three degrees Celsius. In such an environment, given the current supplies and the physical condition of the two people, it was impossible to either rescue others or escape.

However, after settling Nogami in, Flame Tail decided to go back to rescue the people. As the captain, she couldn't abandon her team members.

Perhaps it was divine mercy, but just as Flame Tail was about to return to the fire to save people, Gray Hair appeared carrying Far Fang.

"Grey Hair! Distant Fang!"

"Flame Tail!"

The Red Pine Knights have successfully reunited, but judging from the current situation, they will soon be reduced to half their original number.

Because Yuan Ya was seriously injured, with a wound on his liver, even in the best-equipped field hospital, there was an 80% chance he wouldn't come back. To put it bluntly, Yuan Ya is now close to being taken by death.

Wild sideburns have suffered severe blood loss and are at risk of infection; given the current situation, there is no hope whatsoever.

"Why did this happen! Why..."

Flame Tail knelt on the ground. Just a dozen minutes ago, they were chatting and laughing, but now, everyone was teetering on the brink of life and death. They didn't need an enemy; nature itself would take their lives.

Huihao lowered her head, her fists clenched. She was in the best condition among the four, but it was no use; she couldn't save anyone.

What they need now are medicine, doctors, and surgery, but none of these are available.

Just then, a rhythmic bugle call came from afar, like... a signal to attack.

Later, Yanwei learned that the bugle was called the Charge Bugle.

Faced with such a weak enemy, it was impossible for Talulah not to launch a counter-charge. Now that the enemy was in disarray, it was time to go up and reap the spoils. Fix bayonets and blow the charge!

The resounding bugle call echoed across the snow-covered plain, and the once silent plain suddenly came to life.

"what happened?"

"Look, the snowfield in the distance is moving!"

"That's not snow, it's people! It's Red bandits!"

The digital snow camouflage effect made the Terra Red Army, as they rose to charge, appear like a moving snowfield, pressing towards the Kazimierz Legion, with a deafening roar of "Hurrah!" echoing throughout the heavens and earth.

"Comrades, for the motherland, Hurrah!"

Amidst the courageous roars, there were also some untimely voices.

"Hold the political commissar back! Political officers are strictly prohibited from leading the charge!"

The Ursus people, who had completely inherited Russian blood, charged forward with overwhelming force. As they charged, front-line fire support was quickly deployed. A large number of 60mm mortars and automatic grenade launchers laid a barrage in front of the charging troops, covering their comrades as they tore through the enemy's defenses.

Unfortunately, they failed because the enemy collapsed to the point that they couldn't organize any defenses, let alone a defensive line.

As long as I have no defenses, you can't break through them! (Outrageous statement) "It's the Red Bandits! The Red Bandits are coming! What do we do?"

Gray Hair looked anxiously at Flame Tail. According to the propaganda from the Kazimir side, these Red Bandits were extremely barbaric. After capturing prisoners of war, they used the women as breeding machines and the men as slaves. Coupled with the Kazimir people's preconceived notions about the Ursus people, this completely distorted propaganda did have a certain effect.

For example, Gray's current thoughts.

At this moment, Yuan Ya, who was lying on the ground, struggled to sit up.

"Give me...weapons...I'll cover you...you...you get out of here."

Section 206: We are not the enemy

(Second update, (～￣▽￣)～)

"No! The Red Pine Knights will not abandon their comrades, come with me!"

Flame Tail grabbed Far Fang's hand, preparing to carry her on his back to move her.

But Yuan Ya, though weak, struggled resolutely to refuse: "Impossible...impossible...I...I'm beyond saving...I know...I know...go!"

The last two words were shouted out by Yuan Ya with almost all his strength.

Just then, a slight tremor came from the ground, and then several huge silhouettes appeared in the distance.

Gray Hair's pupils constricted sharply: "It's a land-based warship! It's an enemy land-based warship!"

However, compared to the distant landships, the Terra Red Army, which has already stormed into the Kazimierz garrison, is the biggest threat.

Yuan Ya picked up his crossbow, lay down on the ground and entered battle mode. Yan Wei knew he had no choice but to leave with tears in his eyes and Hui Hao carrying Ye Han first.

After confirming that his teammates had left, Yuan Ya breathed a slight sigh of relief.

His vision was becoming increasingly blurry, and Yuan Ya knew that this was where he would meet his end.

At this moment, she couldn't help but start to reflect on her life.

He wanted to become a knight, but unexpectedly became an infected person. After realizing his dream through another path, he discovered how dirty the competitive knights were.

Harboring ideals yet running on a dark path, constantly fighting for the rights of the infected, like the Blood Knight, but is the end of this road truly light? Or... is it just wishful thinking from the very beginning?

Unbeknownst to Yuan Ya, she felt the world was drifting further and further away from her.

Before closing his eyes, the last thing Yuan Ya heard was, "There are wounded here, call the medics quickly."

When Yuan Ya opened his eyes again, he saw a pristine white ceiling. Had he died and arrived in a pure white world?

However, the words of the medical staff nearby brought Yuan Ya back to reality.
