The Fourth Calamity never believed in the steel torrent!

Chapter 307 The Second Defense of Schlüsselburg

Not good?
Upon hearing this, Andrei's expression became slightly subtle.

Old Huang's power was indeed somewhat ominous, as it represented erosion and destruction, and this power had always been very hostile to demons.

He suddenly became very curious, wondering what the situation was like in the subspace. Could it be that Old Man Huang was busy beating up the big blue bird right now?

"It's okay, don't worry about these details, they're just minor issues."

Andrei waved his hand and casually changed the subject:
"By the way, how's your fighting at the warehouse fortress going these past few days?"

Andrei hadn't really been paying attention to the situation at the warehouse these past two days. Anyway, with the players' abilities, as long as he gave them the order to cause trouble, they could definitely bring a lot of trouble to the Black Hawk Army.

However, he was genuinely curious about how well Jeanne and the player soldiers coordinated and whether they could adapt to the player's high-intensity attack mode.

"Well, how should I put it? The game went fairly smoothly..."

Jeanne pondered for a moment, but did not directly ask Andrei her question.

Although she was very curious and wanted to know what was wrong with those soldiers who seemed to be in a bad state?

But Jeanne felt that even if she asked Andrei, he most likely wouldn't tell her.

The more she observed these soldiers over the days, the more she felt that they were full of a series of abnormalities.

She was almost certain that the soldiers under Andrei's command were not ordinary soldiers, or even human beings!

She now has a suspicion that perhaps these soldiers have undergone some special exorcism ritual by Andrei. They may appear to be moving with human bodies, but in reality, they may be controlled by something non-human.

Could it be that Andrei and his soldiers are also enchanted warriors, just like the operations that the Free Iris organization is currently busy with?
Otherwise, she would find it difficult to explain the series of abnormal behaviors exhibited by these soldiers.

But upon closer observation, she found no demonic reaction in these soldiers, and they gave her a completely different feeling from demons...

If she had to pinpoint the biggest commonality between these soldiers and demons, she felt it was probably their inexplicable fervor for war; both sides were restless if they didn't fight for a day.

As Jeanne thought this, she casually answered Andrei with something else:

"Speaking of which, during this fortress defense battle, I suddenly discovered that my Thousand Sons Legion seems to be more suited for naval warfare..."

Then Jeanne recounted the events that had occurred to Andrei in detail.

"...Wow, so the Thousand Sons Legion can be used like this?"

When Andrei learned that Jeanne had thrown a large number of Thousand Sons soldiers into the river behind her, and then had these empty power armor shells quietly swim to the bottom of the enemy ships and use greatswords to dig through the bottom of the enemy ships, his expression became somewhat uneasy.

It can only be said that the Black Hawk Army, which has been attacked by a series of monsters and demons, is living in dire straits!
While he was attacking the factories occupied by the enemy on the front lines, Andrei gave orders to the players in the fortress to hold back the enemy as much as possible and draw their attention.

He didn't know exactly how many enemy troops these players had successfully tied down, but according to Joan of Arc's description, these players had secretly dug a tunnel underground that led directly to the enemy's rear camp.

Immediately afterward, just as the enemy brought over a large Belsa cannon, this group of players suddenly emerged from the tunnel and snatched the Belsa cannon from the enemy's hands!

Although this giant cannon was eventually destroyed by enemy air force in the subsequent battle.

Before the air force arrived, the player had a blast with this cannon, and no one knows how many enemy armies or camps it destroyed.

In any case, judging from the current situation, the Black Hawk Army is almost driven mad with anger by the remaining players in that fortress. They have used almost every means at their disposal, but they still haven't been able to kill the players in the fortress.

Faced with this group of players who seemed indestructible, the Black Hawk Army racked their brains but ultimately couldn't find a way to defeat them.

After fighting back and forth, they left thousands of corpses in front of the fortress and even leveled a small part of it, but the remaining players still stood firm.

"That's great! Now that the Kadian players have moved in, the fortress is truly Kadian's unyielding force!"

Andrei couldn't help but complain in his heart, thinking that the Black Hawk Army was really suffering when it encountered players!
“Very good. Overall, you did a very good job at the fortress. On behalf of the Volkhov Army Group, I thank you. I will issue you a commendation and some other rewards later.”

Hearing Andrei say this, Jeanne simply smiled and said:
"Don't mention it, it's nothing, after all, we have a common enemy."

"The reason I came here is to follow the Lord's instructions, fight against the Black Hawk Empire, give the Iris Empire a chance to be restored, and ensure that this war can lead to final victory!"

For someone like Jeanne, who has faith in her heart, she doesn't really value material rewards.

In her view, she was waging a holy war that could save humanity and help her defeat the enemy and restore her homeland.

As long as these tasks can be accomplished, the rewards given by Andrei are actually not important.

Andrei was somewhat moved, realizing that no matter the time, in the face of war of aggression, it was precisely because of patriots like Jeanne who asked for nothing in return and were not afraid to sacrifice themselves that the soldiers were able to achieve the final victory.

Unfortunately, Jeanne's beliefs were really wrong!

Those who worship the Great Bluebird usually don't have a good ending. Thinking of this, Andrei couldn't help but worry about Jeanne's future fate.

"Let me tell you about the upcoming battle. We need to take Siniavino first, and then use that as a base to launch an attack towards Schlüsselburg and cut off the enemy's offensive."

"In this war, we will most likely encounter the enemy's Black Skull Titan Legion, and we may even encounter some other special forces. For example, based on a piece of intelligence I captured, I learned that the Black Hawk Army is now deploying a large number of undead soldiers."

As Andrei spoke, he showed Jeanne the intelligence that the players had captured on the table.

I never expected that these players would consider so many things when they're fighting. They're gradually growing into a group of qualified players, or rather, qualified workers.

At this moment, what worries Andrei most is the information in this intelligence report about the Black Hawk Army's large-scale deployment of undead troops.

Although his cavalry players had previously encountered a legion of undead, the legion was not very large, so Andrei was initially not too concerned.

The Black Hawk Army always comes up with some strange and unusual new tricks on the battlefield, but he doesn't really need to pay too much attention to them until they become widespread.

A fleeting idea is nothing and cannot change the overall situation of the war, just like the Maus tank and Jagdtiger tank destroyer that the Germans came up with on a whim during World War II.

These kinds of things don't really pose any threat until they can be deployed on a large scale.

This thing might achieve some results on local battlefields and slightly surprise the enemy, but it can't form a systematic approach at all.

However, according to the intelligence above, the Black Hawk Command is currently forcibly ordering all units to collect as many soldiers' bodies as possible and transport them back home.

According to their plan, the Black Hawk Army would send at least 50,000 undead soldiers to various battlefields within about a month.

These ghoul soldiers, known as the Resurrected Legion, are fearless and difficult to kill with ordinary weapons. They can even be repaired and resurrected by necromancers.

Although they have a series of problems such as a strong appetite, they also seem to be experiencing some mental health issues.

But this was enough to make Andrei nervous.

After reading through the intelligence reports, Jeanne's brows furrowed deeply.

"Damn it! These Black Hawk devils deserve to go to hell! How could they be so cruel to their own people!"

Jeanne was also shocked by the Black Hawk Empire's series of actions. She didn't understand why these guys were fighting.
The war has already reached this point, what does the Black Hawk Empire want to do?
Do they just want to gain more land and profits in the war?
Thinking of this, Jeanne couldn't help but feel sorry for the common people of the Black Hawk Empire. If the upper echelons of the Black Hawk Empire were really like this, only caring about their own interests and not caring about the lives of ordinary people, then that would be too bad.

Living in such an empire was a tragedy in itself.

"This is the enemy we need to focus on guarding against next. I'm going to temporarily incorporate your troops into Katyusha's Titan Legion, and have your soldiers serve as the Titan Guard. What do you think?"

As Andrei spoke, he pointed to several red-lettered soldiers standing outside the command post.

“It is obvious that your troops are not suitable to operate alongside ordinary soldiers, and Katyusha’s Titan Legion is currently severely lacking in Titan Guards. Therefore, I think it would be a good choice to have the Thousand Sons Legion serve as the Titan Guards.”

Just as tanks need infantry-tank coordination to unleash their true combat power, Titan units also need Titan Guards to achieve their combat effectiveness.

Previously, the Winter's Wrath Titan Legion naturally had its own Titan Guard.

However, in the previous series of battles, the Cambrian Empire's armored forces suffered heavy losses, and the remaining armored forces were borrowed by General Constantine to fill the gaps at the front.

According to Constantine's extensive statements:
"You already have so many armored units under your command, why are you still eyeing that remaining Titan Guard?"

"When you come back, why don't you just draw some men from your armored forces and make them Katyusha's Titan Guard?"

Jeanne nodded and accepted Andrei's arrangement.

Indeed, Jeanne's Thousand Sons Army was quite abnormal; having them fight alongside ordinary troops would inevitably lead to a series of problems.

Whether it's the difference in mobility, the difference in physical strength, or the fact that this unit is designed for offensive operations, they are not suitable to fight alongside ordinary troops.

If they can fight alongside Titan, they will undoubtedly be even more formidable.

"Very good. Make some preparations. You will have less than a day to rest. Our troops will set off tomorrow morning. Can you handle this level of combat intensity?"

Jeanne patted her breastplate, making a banging sound.

"Don't worry, this level of combat intensity is no problem for me at all. Trust my will and stamina!"

"Besides, you've been commanding the battles all this time without feeling tired, so why should I be tired?"

Andrei blushed slightly after Jeanne said that.

Although he, as the commander, seemed to be constantly on the front lines of combat, issuing orders to the troops every moment, in reality, he was quite idle.

He only needed to give a general outline of the battle plan, and the rest could be revised by the staff.

As for commanding battles?
He gives the player the general objectives and leaves the rest to the player to decide; the ordinary soldiers just follow the player and fight!
So in reality, although he, the commander, seemed very busy, his work in the command center was actually quite leisurely, requiring almost no mental effort.

Andrei's troops are preparing for the next major battle, while at the same time, in the castle that was previously attacked by players, the local Black Hawk soldiers are also clashing with the Emperor's Royal Guard.

"Enough! These soldiers all died heroically on the battlefield. They deserve to be buried, not taken back by you!"

As the Imperial Guards attempted to dig up the bodies of soldiers who had just been buried, an officer angrily rushed forward and stopped them.

But as soon as he finished speaking, the guard officer in front of him drew his pistol and pointed it directly at his head.

Upon seeing this, the ordinary Black Hawk soldiers, who were already quite resentful of these guards, also raised their guns and pointed them at them, their eyes filled with anger.

"What do you mean by this? Are you going to defy His Majesty the Emperor's will?"

The guard officer looked around and roared at the soldiers:

"His Majesty the Emperor has issued an order that the bodies of all fallen soldiers must be preserved as well as possible and sent back to the rear. What exactly do you mean by burying these soldiers' bodies without authorization?"

"Burial is merely a formality. The Empire must not indulge in formalism now. We should grant these soldiers the right to serve the Empire once again!"

Immediately afterward, another Imperial Guard officer who had arrived also glared at the crowd like a hawk, his expression somewhat gloomy as he looked at the officers of this unit and said:
"Sir, I think I should remind you that not only was your command post ambushed and destroyed by the enemy, but you also lost a series of important documents. We haven't settled that score yet!"

“If you still want to fight with us at a time like this, then I think you can be sent back to a military court for trial and execution right now!”

As more and more Guards soldiers charged fiercely with submachine guns, the other Black Hawk soldiers, who had previously mustered their courage, couldn't help but feel fear again.

These guardsmen also performed some of the functions of the military police, so theoretically they had the right to manage and suppress their own men.

Moreover, although some soldiers believed that digging up their comrades' corpses from the ground and taking them to the rear for some kind of necromancy modification was a very sacrilegious act.

However, at the same time, some soldiers felt that if this method could give their comrades a chance to be reborn, it might not be such a bad thing.

They didn't know how much suffering the soldiers endured after being turned into ghouls, so they thought being resurrected was a good thing.

Especially with the propaganda within the military, many soldiers felt that being able to be resurrected to continue serving the emperor was their greatest honor!
In the end, they were unable to overcome these Imperial Guard soldiers.

The soldiers could only retreat, allowing the Imperial Guards to dig out the bodies that had been buried in the ground, load them onto vehicles, and take them away.

In that instant, many Black Hawk soldiers felt a void in their hearts, and they didn't know how to describe this feeling.

"This damn war..."

Meanwhile, at Schlüsselburg.

On the slightly chilly hilltop, Major General Bogaychuk, who was in charge of leading the infantry division to defend the area, sighed heavily.

"Ugh, this damned war!"

Looking at the positions ahead, he couldn't help but feel a pang of pain in his heart. Compared to when he led his troops here, the positions he was on now had suffered heavy casualties.

The infantry division he just brought here was a reorganized division that had been reinforced with artillery. Although the entire infantry division was newly formed, more than half of the soldiers were veterans who had retired from the battlefield and were then reorganized.

The entire division had a total of more than 14000 people. After two days and two nights of fighting, less than 8000 people are left.

Even the artillery attached to the position, as well as an armored regiment responsible for assisting the infantry division in combat, have lost more than half of their troops.

The Black Hawk Army is launching a fierce attack here, with wave after wave of enemy offensives that seem unstoppable.

Faced with the enemy's powerful attack, their defense of this position was extremely difficult.

Although he had almost completely replicated the position that Andrei had defended here, it must be said that sometimes defense is not about the position itself, but about the soldiers.

"I wonder how General Andrei trained his troops, and why his soldiers are so strong in combat?"

In the command post, Major General Bogaychuk thought with some puzzlement that the gap between his soldiers and Andrei's soldiers was really not small!
In the previous war, Andrei's army easily repelled the enemy's armored forces' fierce attack and even crippled one of their armored divisions!
Although he had to admit that Andrei's remarkable achievements in that war were largely due to the sudden arrival of the Tsar's cannons.

But even setting aside the Tsar's cannons, he felt that his army was significantly inferior to Andrei's.

Perhaps because the Black Hawk Army suffered considerable losses in previous attacks, they were noticeably more cautious when launching their attack on this area.

Although the Black Hawk Army's Titan Legion had arrived, they dared not directly deploy the Titans into the battle to avoid them being attacked by the enemy's Tsar Cannons. It was precisely because of this that Major General Bogaychuk was able to hold his position with his infantry division; otherwise, if the enemy had pressed the Titan Legion forward, their position would have fallen long ago.

"General, can we request support from the rear for the Tsar Cannon? If we can get the Tsar Cannon here, I believe this war will become much easier!"

An officer asked the major general a question, but the major general shook his head.

"Unfortunately, I had already inquired with the army commander, but he said that the Tsar Cannon could not be transferred."

"On the one hand, he needed to use this super cannon to defend against the attacks of the Emperor's son Titan Legion, and on the other hand, the enemy's air force was rampant, making it too risky to bring the cannon out!"

Major General Bogaychuk's face darkened as he recalled the relentless bombing raids his position had suffered at the hands of enemy airships during the recent days of fighting.

The losses he has suffered so far, especially those of armored units and artillery, are mostly due to enemy air force fire.

If it weren't for the enemy's air force constantly ravaging overhead, they wouldn't have had such a difficult battle!
Just then, a phone call came in from the front lines.

"Reporting to the general, the enemy's armored forces have launched another attack on us, and we are severely lacking in anti-tank guns..."

"Hold it!"

Major General Bogaychuk roared:

"I will send you the last batch of anti-tank guns I have right away, but no matter what, you must hold on and not let the enemy break through the front line!"

"Also, I remember we laid a lot of landmines up ahead, didn't we? Aren't the Black Hawk Army afraid that these landmines will blow up their armored units?"

The major general was somewhat puzzled. In order to perfectly replicate Andrei's victory, he had imitated Andrei's tactics at that time and set up a large area of ​​minefields.

He was certain that, apart from a few passages, the rest of the front line was completely covered with landmines.

If the Black Hawk Army's armored forces were to launch an attack under those conditions, they would inevitably suffer heavy losses!

"But General, the enemy has used a special mine-clearing weapon, and they have already cleared many of the mines we laid!"

"They have now broken through our front-line minefield and, using their assault teams, have taken out the moose mechs deployed on the flanks of our positions. We are really on the verge of collapse!"

While Major General Bogaychuk was still thinking about replicating Andrei's miracle and busy recreating Andrei's original arrangements one-to-one, he had already fallen into a inferior position.

Because war is never static; only by constantly changing can they keep up with the form of war.

For example, this time, the Black Hawk team clearly learned from the lessons of their previous failed attack.

They not only strengthened the air force's cover for ground troops, but also equipped the engineering corps with the latest mine-clearing weapons.

In the minefield ahead, an engineer was seen holding a strange contraption that looked like a giant firecracker. He lit it and launched it with great force.

Immediately afterwards, the rocket shot rapidly into the distance, leaving a huge black trail behind it.

As the rocket landed some distance away, the long strip of explosives was laid right in the center of the minefield. The next moment, as the rocket detonated, all the explosives inside the strip were also detonated.

With a barrage of explosions, the shockwave detonated countless landmines in the vicinity, creating a continuous series of explosions.

After the explosion stopped, the large minefield in front of the Black Hawk troops had already been cleared by this thing, creating a passage!

"Very good, excellent, that's it! Destroy their minefield!"

A Black Hawk officer set up binoculars on an armored vehicle behind him, excitedly watching the scene ahead.

Once the minefield was cleared, his armored grenadiers could launch an attack forward.

Meanwhile, while these soldiers were busy clearing mines, the Black Hawk Army's artillery also launched a barrage of bombardments into the distance.

A barrage of artillery fire was relentlessly poured onto the Cambrian army's rear lines of defense. The artillery deployed at the second and third lines of defense were all pinned down by this series of bombardments.

Although the Cambrian army had withdrawn its remaining artillery in advance, they did not suffer many artillery losses in this bombardment.

But it was clear that their artillery was also unable to provide artillery support to the front lines at this time.

As the enemy cleared the minefield, a large number of Black Hawk soldiers began to launch an assault along the minefield. Armored vehicles, accompanied by infantrymen who dismounted and charged forward, surged towards the positions ahead.

"Damn it! The enemy is charging! Where are our anti-tank guns and our anti-tank rifles? We have nothing! How are we supposed to fight?"

A Cambrian officer at the front saw the Black Hawk armored forces rapidly advancing ahead through a periscope in the trench.

Looking at the rows of armored vehicles, and the dozens of mechs mixed among them, he couldn't help but let out an angry roar.

At this moment, the biggest problem on his position is the severe lack of anti-armor capabilities.

In the previous battle, 80% of the anti-tank guns on his position were destroyed by the enemy, and now only the last two guns remain.

He dared not use the last two cannons, because he was worried that if he used them now and they were destroyed by the enemy, they would be unable to deal with the Hunter mechs that followed.

If it's just an armored car, or a small gadget like the Peacekeeper mech, he can deal with it using an anti-armor rifle.

However, if faced with the Hunter mech's 80mm thick frontal armor, unless the anti-tank gun is used, he is truly powerless to fight back.

Two soldiers ran over with anti-tank rifles borrowed from another position, their faces beaming with joy, holding the rifles as if they were holding their own wives.

No, they wouldn't even treat their own wives with such care!

"Sir, we've borrowed the weapons!"

"Idiot, what are we waiting for? Quickly take out their charging tanks!"

Upon hearing this, several soldiers quickly set up their anti-tank rifles and quietly aimed them at an armored vehicle that was charging at the forefront.

With a bang, an armor-piercing round flew out and pierced the driver's compartment of the armored vehicle, killing the driver inside.

The soldier who had just fired gritted his teeth, preparing to fire a second shot, but at that moment, the Peacemaker mech on the other side spotted him.

The Black Hawk Empire's armored soldiers are highly skilled, detect the enemy very quickly, and react swiftly.

With a burst of intense machine gun fire, the soldier who had just poked his head out to fire was instantly killed.

His comrades next to him tried to take away the anti-tank rifle he had left outside the trench, but the continuous machine gun fire blew his head off as well.

boom!
The second anti-armor rifle fired a bullet, destroying the Peacemaker mech from the side.

However, the Black Hawk mortar crews following closely behind also located the anti-tank rifle and fired several shells into that section of the trench.

Amidst the sound of artillery fire, the Cambrian soldier was killed instantly. But to prevent his rifle from being damaged, even as he was killed by the shells, he covered the gun with his own body, just to keep it from being affected by the blast.

Cambrian soldiers on the other side tried to get over, but the trench had already been blocked by enemy artillery fire.

As the enemy's armored vehicles surged forward menacingly, about to storm the position, suddenly, a Cambrian soldier pulled out a bundle of pre-prepared grenades and shouted to the other soldiers:
"Brothers, if you're not afraid to die, follow me! Let's fight them to the death!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he raised a grenade and jumped out of the trench.

Although he was almost instantly killed by enemy machine gun fire the moment he jumped out, the other Cambrian soldiers roared and charged forward with grenades or explosive charges.

The armored vehicle remained stationary, continuously firing its machine gun at them, but more and more Cambrian soldiers rushed out of the trenches and charged towards the vehicle.

With a loud bang, several Cambrian soldiers were killed along with the armored vehicle by the explosive charge.

But right behind them, even more tanks were heading this way!

"Get our anti-tank guns out there, quick!"

With no other option, the frontline officers finally had to order the use of anti-tank guns, hoping to destroy as many enemy armored units as possible before the two anti-tank guns were destroyed.

He knew very well that, given the current state of the Cambrian army, once these two anti-tank guns were deployed, they would inevitably be caught in enemy fire.

Both of these anti-tank guns were 76mm caliber, making it impossible for soldiers to move them from the position in an instant.

Therefore, even the artillerymen who operated these two cannons knew that once they started operating these two anti-tank guns, their lives would officially begin their countdown.

But they were fearless in order to hold their ground!

With two loud cannon shots, the two Peacemaker mechs were simultaneously destroyed. After knocking out these two mechs that had been suppressing the infantry, the two cannons did not pause and immediately re-aimed, loaded their shells at the fastest speed, and continued to bombard the armored vehicles in front.

Due to the haste, one cannon missed its mark, but the other cannon still successfully pierced the front of the armored vehicle.

As the armored vehicle came to a stop, its engine burst into flames, and the Black Hawk soldiers around it scrambled to take cover as the heavy machine guns that were already prepared opened fire on them.

Just then, accompanied by the whistling of shells, the Black Hawk Army's artillery successfully completed its fire coverage of the two anti-tank gun positions.

Several 120mm howitzers easily destroyed the two artillery positions, turning the two anti-tank guns that had not been withdrawn from the positions into a mangled mess.

Once the anti-tank guns were completely destroyed and the suppression of artillery fire was gone, the Black Hawk Army's armored vehicles successfully approached the edge of the trenches.

Immediately afterwards, these armored vehicles began to use the machine gun turrets on their roofs to relentlessly suppress the Cambrian soldiers inside the trenches. At the same time, a large number of armored grenadiers poured out from behind the vehicles, grabbed submachine guns, and quickly jumped into the trenches.

Rat-a-tat-tat! Rat-a-tat-tat!
In a burst of intense fire, the Cambrian soldiers in the trench were quickly wiped out.

But more Cambrian soldiers kept arriving, roaring as they joined the bloody battle before them.

Located behind the Black Hawk troops, an officer asked his division commander, somewhat puzzled:
"General, I don't understand. Why don't we send out more troops and take this position in one fell swoop?"

"The air force clearly hasn't detected any trace of the enemy's Tsar Cannon. The possibility of the Tsar Cannon reappearing here is extremely slim. We can send the Titan Legion to wipe out the defenders here in one fell swoop!"

He couldn't understand why, when his own army had the ability to wipe out the entire area in one fell swoop, they had to drag it out with the enemy.
Hearing his question, the division commander shrugged somewhat helplessly and said:

"Don't ask me about this, because I also really want the Titan Legion to quickly wipe out all the enemies in front of us, so that we can have an easier time."

"Unfortunately, the commander above us seems to have a bigger plan. They seem to be preparing to send the Black Skull Titan Legion to find an opportunity to launch a fierce attack on the Cambrian army that is coming to reinforce us."

According to the Black Hawk Army's assessment, the location currently under attack is such a crucial transportation hub that the Cambrian Empire would not allow them to take it.

In that case, the Cambrian Empire will surely send a large number of reinforcements to support this place, and their Titan Legion can take this opportunity to suddenly strike and wipe out the enemy's reinforcements in one fell swoop.

To be precise, many Black Hawk officers, including Field Marshal Schweigen, hoped to take advantage of this opportunity to severely damage the Andrei Dvorkhov Front, and even kill the ever-victorious General Andrei in one fell swoop!

Although they had tried to ambush Andrei using the strategy of besieging a point to catch reinforcements last time, unfortunately, they failed.

However, they did not seem to have learned from their previous failure. These Black Hawk generals still believed that Andrei's ability to break through the encirclement last time was merely due to luck.

Last time on the battlefield, a strange, giant demon suddenly appeared and destroyed the two giant cannons they had prepared, which is why they suffered a defeat.

But this time the situation is different. This time they have prepared a large number of abyss mages. Even if a demon is summoned, their abyss mages can banish the demon from the other side!

Therefore, they believed that even the famous and ever-victorious general would not be able to react in time to a surprise attack by a Titan legion during a march!

In particular, the Black Skull Titan Legion was temporarily replenished. With the arrival of a new batch of Titans forged from the rear, the Titan Legion was now restored to a powerful formation of a total of 6 Titans.

Andrei was unaware that the enemy had set up the same old trick against him, but even if he had known, he wouldn't have cared.

As the saying goes, everyone grows and matures.

After being ambushed last time, how could Andrei not pay attention to this kind of thing?
Just before he launched this attack, he had already sent out a large number of air force players to scout the Black Hawk army at the front line and launch a large-scale bombing of the enemy.

As one plane after another took off from the crude field airfield, Andrei's eyes grew brighter and brighter.

"Hahaha, this time we also launched a large-scale bombing campaign. First, we bombed, and then we sent our armored forces to charge. That's blitzkrieg!"

After smiling, Andrei thought of the new batch of goods that had just arrived at the train station, and a look of surprise suddenly appeared on his face.

"It's really strange. I didn't expect the Tsar to be so generous this time. He not only replenished the fuel I desperately needed, but also sent an extra infantry division."

Andrei did not bring the arriving infantry division with him, because these guys had not received any training and did not have enough mechanized equipment; they simply could not keep up with the speed of his armored forces.

As it happened, Andrei left this infantry division behind to defend Volkhov, and he would consider reinforcing it later.

Major General Spiridovich, who had just led his infantry division of only 8000 men off the train at the train station, looked around at the buildings with a hint of curiosity.

"So this is Volkhov. I never imagined it would be reduced to such a dilapidated state!"

Looking at the officer who came to greet him, he stepped forward, exchanged a few casual pleasantries, and then began to guide his troops to their post.

Thinking about the task the Tsar had given him before he arrived here, he couldn't help but feel a headache coming on.

"Your Majesty, have you found the wrong person? This is not related to my expertise at all!"

"This is really baffling. How am I supposed to know where the Vorontsov family's hidden biological laboratory is? They actually have a secret biological laboratory hidden there?"

Just as Major General Spiridovich was still feeling somewhat incredulous, he suddenly saw several Oglin players under Andrei's command, who were busy helping his soldiers unload goods from the train.

When he saw those burly men, all over 2.5 meters tall, easily carrying several 122mm howitzers, each weighing more than two tons, off the truck floor by hand, his mind suddenly went blank.

Good heavens, he seems to understand why the Tsar said that!

What else could this be but a cyborg soldier?
The Vorontsov family actually has such powerful cyborg warriors?!
