Alien Empire Total War

the second day.

The rumble of artillery broke the rare silence of Ankerton City. The remaining six artillery pieces were lined up in Heroes' Square, aiming at the crumbling palace walls of Sona Palace, and bombarded them in turn. In the moat, a splash of water splashed.

The shelling lasted only a few rounds, and the palace wall of the Sona Palace finally couldn't bear the damage. After the last shell hit the cracked part, it collapsed. The collapsed city wall spread. They only took a few steps back when they were ordered by loyal officers to take up combat posts to prevent the mob from outside from attacking the city.

On the square, seeing that the palace wall finally collapsed, the officers and soldiers of the former Second Brigade, the worker commandos and the recruited armed citizens who had completely surrendered to the mob cheered. Rise up, screaming and rush to the moat—those longboards will cross the moat, allowing the warriors to rush across the moat into the palace.

The recalcitrant Praetorian Guards would obviously not let them approach easily. After the soldiers of the attacking side rushed into the firing range of the flintlock guns, the praetorian soldiers fired a salvo, killing and injuring dozens of enemies immediately. Fighting back, but because the forbidden army has the protection of bunkers, the effect is very small.

At the same time, the few remaining artillery pieces of the Imperial Army also risked shooting at the rushing crowd. Most of their artillery pieces were destroyed in yesterday's shelling. enemy.

They didn't use regular solid bullets today, but chilling grape bullets!

After one shot, the soldiers in the charge fell down like the autumn wind sweeping leaves, and the grape bombs made countless holes in them. This scene made the soldiers watching the battle in the back terrified. The officers and soldiers of the second brigade suddenly remembered them yesterday. The encounter of the feng shui is really turning, and the mob also tastes the grape bomb this day!

After the artillery opened fire to expose the location, the thugs' artillery immediately aimed in that direction and launched a counter-attack. The forbidden artillery was suppressed, and the precious artillery had to be withdrawn...

After that, the attack continued.

…

At the same time, Charlie had just walked out of the village chief's longhouse where he was resting and washed his face with water from the general guard under the service of the general guard. The rumbling of cannons came from afar.

He quickly reacted—the battle in the city was still going on, and the Imperial Army of Sona Palace was still stubbornly resisting.

He returned the towel to the guards, and then ordered the whole regiment to assemble and continue marching towards the noble district. He guessed that the main force of the rebels should be besieging the important location of the palace on the Heroes' Square. If the nobles unite to resist, they will not be able to attack in a short time. He must rush in at a suitable time to lead his army to attack.

Charlie didn't plan to go directly into the nobles' area to assist in the defense. He planned to wait for the guards of the nobles to be defeated. After the rebels entered, he would arrive in the image of the savior to defeat the rebels, so that he could reap the greater benefits of the nobles. gratitude.

The infantry regiment was quickly assembled. After counting the number of people, Charlie left the village and continued to move towards the north area.

At the same time that Charlie rushed to the North District, General Berlan and Sandy, who were sent here, also began to lead the team to attack the Noble District. There is a three- or four-meter-high wall on the periphery of the noble district. The original purpose of this wall was to isolate the civilians outside, but it did not expect that today, it helped them block the pace of the thug army.

With the existence of this wall, the guards gathered by various nobles only need to guard the only passage. They hide behind the barricades blocking the street and shoot at everyone who approaches - within 100 meters in front of the barricades, they have fallen. They killed dozens of thugs armed with weapons, and their bodies lay quietly on the street.

Brigadier General Berlan looked blankly at the corpses on the street. He raised his hand and pressed against the void in front of him. The soldiers in cyan military uniforms lined up behind him then quickly walked over him and moved towards the barricade.

The noble guards hiding behind the barricades quickly spotted these soldiers in military uniforms. They didn't know the news that the second brigade had surrendered to the thugs. The larger guards sensed something was wrong—the soldiers were in a horizontal formation, their guns were ahead, and it looked like an offensive stance no matter what.

Before they could persuade the others, a young guard stood up from behind the barricade with joy. UUkanshu.com walked over the barricade and walked towards the soldiers. He only took a few steps when he was shocked to see walking at the front. The soldier raised his rifle, and before he could react, the rifle fired a salvo, the guard and several people standing behind the barricade were shot to the ground.

"That's the enemy!"

The old guard who survived this round of salvo shouted in horror. He hurriedly grabbed the rifle beside him, got up and fired back at the enemy. Just as he leaned out from behind the barricade, he saw that the enemy in the second row had already Crossed the front row, raised the gun in his direction and aimed it!

bang bang bang—

Another round of salvo, the old guard who leaned out was hit several times, and fell backwards screaming.

The other guards watched this scene in shock. They swallowed their saliva and didn't dare to stand up to fight back. It was okay for them to deal with the untrained mob, but if they had to face the well-trained regular army, they would only be hanged and beaten. .

"This is Xu Jin's shooting, damn, we can't stop them!"

A guard who served in the army said to the other guards that Xu Jin's shooting was a tactic in the era of queuing and shooting. The company divided the soldiers into three rows. Shooting past the front row of soldiers, followed by the third row, each row of salvos can suppress the enemy and cover the advance of the friendly army.

Although they knew this tactic, they couldn't counteract the enemy because they didn't have a unified command and could only fight according to their own experience.

Just as he was speaking, several guards stood up and shot at the enemy. Although they shot several enemies, they themselves fell down because of the enemy's counter-attack.

In street battles, the battle is about which side has high morale and which side is elite. No matter from which point of view, the guards of noble families do not have the advantage.
