I picked up the dragon girl at the beginning and I used artillery fire to liberate the other world

Looking at those stone bags, Charles felt that his brain was not enough.

He couldn't understand how his soldiers could break the solid stone.

Not to mention anything else, even getting close to it would cost the lives of countless soldiers.

"My Lord Duke, I have a way to deal with those stone defenses."

Edric didn't take the previous small failure seriously, he just thought it was a problem of betrayal by those soldiers.

Otherwise, he would have discovered the defense of the stone groups and stopped in time.

In other words, even without his proposal, the army would still have suffered such a heavy blow.

In this matter, it was Edric who had foresight.

Therefore, Edric still did not take Bai Yan's army seriously.

After all, those magic weapons were only good for long-range combat, and with an army of 500,000 strong, they were able to quickly approach the enemy and engage in hand-to-hand combat even if they charged.

Hearing that Edric had a solution, Charles asked with a little expectation: "What solution?"

“Your Excellency the Duke, although ordinary soldiers cannot cause any damage to those stones.

But our high-level knights and high-level mages can easily destroy those stones.

Therefore, we only need to use ordinary soldiers to stand in the front and use their bodies to clear a path for the high-level fighters.

Then the stones won’t be a problem.”

Charles looked at Edric for a moment, and finally nodded with satisfaction.

No matter what, the plans he talked about always made sense to him.

When the plan began to unfold, everything was exactly as Edric had said.

As the soldiers in the front charged physically, the high-level combat forces were indeed approaching those stone fortresses.

Finally, after sacrificing countless lives of soldiers, the "Stone" fortress finally came within the attack range of high-level combat forces.

As an attack powerful enough to cut off the head of a high-level monster was launched, explosions sounded everywhere.

Charles and Edric showed joy at this, as they seemed to have seen that their warriors had opened up a road leading directly to the Mithril City.

But as the dust caused by the explosion dissipated.

The original scene of the stone breaking did not happen, instead, a number of twenty-centimeter-deep holes appeared.

Along with the ground, there are also strips of steel bars sticking out and exposed to the air.

"What?!?"

Charles exclaimed, and what he didn't expect was that a short and rapid sound of breaking through the air was heard.

The head of a high-ranking knight suddenly exploded, and his brain and blood splattered all around like fireworks.

Everything happened in a flash. Before he could react, the second bullet followed and blew up the head of the second high-ranking knight.

"run!"

There was no time to even shout retreat. The leaders of the high-level knights and high-level mages were shouting to escape. In order to save time, he didn't even shout the word "retreat".

At the same time, above the trench, a gray-haired girl wearing a small steel hat climbed up from the slope, then squatted into the trench holding her beloved sniper rifle with some excitement.

"Well done, Alesha."

When the big thief heard her teammates' admiration for her, she did not climb up the pole immediately. Instead, she lowered her head slightly shyly and responded with a chuckle.

“Edric, what level of magic equipment is the enemy using?

This kind of power, even a super-class magician is not as powerful as it, right?"

Obviously, their operation this time failed once again.

But even so, the little old man with a white beard did not look panicked, and even still had a confident expression.

"Relax, Your Majesty.

Don't forget, we have about a hundred super-class fighters, four holy-class knights, and four holy-class mages.

Bai Yan simply cannot possess this kind of power that is enough to turn the tide of the battle, so sir, the advantage is still mine now!"

After hearing Edrick's explanation, the anger on Charles' face finally dissipated.

"Then in your opinion, how should we deal with it next?"

Edric snorted, and his eagle-like dark eyes revealed a bit of sharpness, "It's the same plan as last time, but this time we will replace the high-level combat power with super-level combat power!!!"

Charles was skeptical when he heard this, "Will this really work?"

"Of course I can. I just underestimated the hardness of those stones last time."

Edric nodded heavily and gently stroked his long white beard with his left hand, looking confident of victory.

In the end, this plan was adopted by Charles. . .

This time the plan went on smoothly as usual, so smoothly that the only bombardment was artillery fire.

When the super-class fighters used all their strength to split the "stones" one by one, they found that the inside had become an empty shell at some point.

Faced with the continuous attack of shells, even a super-class knight whose body is as strong as steel will still suffer minor injuries from the explosion.

However, the group of stones in the first level was finally taken down.

The next step was to charge towards the ravine, which seemed much easier than the hard stone shell.

As long as they charge up that slope, the balance of victory will tip towards them.

Duke Charles himself had thought this through clearly without relying on Edric.

After a short rest, the army began to charge towards the trenches.

The charge of hundreds of thousands of people and the huge battle made the earth tremble and emit a rumbling sound.

"Fire!!!"

Following the order from the regiment commander, William pulled the breech block, and the steel shells from the Italian cannon drew a graceful arc and landed in the area where the enemy troops were densely packed.

For such explosions, wearing armor becomes a burden.

The violent tremors of the explosion were enough to make a body of steel wail in pain.

Maxim's crazy strafing harvested large numbers of enemy lives. There was one every hundred meters, forming a dense firepower network.

But because the enemy was too numerous, the trench position was quickly lost.

After the first enemy climbed up the dirt slope, Gray and the various commanders gave the order to retreat.

He didn't even have a gun and ran away empty-handed in his camouflage uniform.

Once again, Charles was confused. Where was the desperate attitude you just had?

However, before the soldiers on the front line could catch up, a sudden explosion like a falling meteorite sounded.

Charles and Edric were dumbfounded when they saw the thick black smoke and fire pouring out of the trench.

Mushroom clouds rose into the sky one after another, swallowing up all the soldiers and knights in the front row.

The entire trench was blown upside down.

At this time, the Purple Gold Leader's western front troops had just arrived not far west of the Mithril City.
