Chapter 15 Battle of the South forest
Chapter 15 Battle of the South forest
Imperial troops are advancing.
The biggest problem for them in the south forest was the 4-meter-high aggressive spiders, Trolls, and slimes. There were also Orcs and goblins, and apparently, there were several tribes. Who were creating difficulties for them.
Goblins and Orcs were the most common.
Orcs are like a mix of humans and hairless apes; their strength is like a gorilla in calculation; they are clumsy, and goblins are small and stupid but cunning and use more complex weapons like daggers, spears, etc.
They were the most numerous.
But it was the trolls who caused the most trouble for the soldiers.
They were 3 meters large and since they regenerated so quickly, the empire lost several of their people due to their regeneration.
Also, these Trolls are very powerful.
*******
The Imperial soldiers moved forward cautiously. After going some distance, they saw a group of monsters coming towards them.
The group consisted of at least thousands of monsters
The soldiers of the Empire began to attack these monsters with mortars.
The ground trembled beneath their feet as the projectiles arced overhead, crashing down among the advancing creatures. Explosions erupted with deafening force.
Orcs and Goblins have faced a lot of damage for this, Trolls use their regeneration powers to recover.
They kept coming at a faster pace.
The Imperial infantry continued to fire.
Empire perspective:—
The Imperial soldiers, their faces grim under the smoke and dust, watched in disbelief as the horde pressed forward.
"Damn," one soldier muttered, his voice laced with fear and frustration, "What's wrong with these green things? They're huge, plus they have regenerative powers. Bullets are almost useless against them."
Another soldier, his face tight with determination, yelled back, "Just keep firing! Wait for the tanks to come! They'll have heavier armor and bigger guns. We have to hold them off until they arrive!"
A third soldier, his eyes scanning the skies, cried out, "Where is the air force? Where are those damn bombers when we need them?"
Meanwhile, Troll Perspective:—
The troll grunted, his massive hand clutching his side where a metal shard had pierced his thick hide. "What are these things doing?" he growled. "These...stingers...they hurt. And it takes longer than usual to heal."
His fellow troll nodded, a scowl twisting his face. "Yeah, I got one in the leg. It stings like a thousand bee stings."
"It was supposed to be an easy meal," another troll said
Foulgrin The Chief Warrior, a hulking behemoth with a single, jagged horn protruding from his forehead, snorted in disdain. "It doesn't matter," he boomed, his voice echoing through the ranks. "They're just humans. Slow, weak, easy prey. Once we get close, we'll crush them like insects."
One of the trolls, a younger one, still bearing the fresh wounds from the metal projectiles, scratched his head. "I think these humans...they use some weird magic. Their clothes are so different from anything we've seen before. It's like they're made of metal and cloth."
Foulgrin, his face a mask of savage glee, roared, "Let's continue! This is a human tribe! It will be a great feast! Prepare to feast on their flesh and bones, my warriors!"
A wave of menacing laughter swept across the horde. The trolls, orcs, and goblins, their eyes gleaming with a primal hunger, charged forward, their heavy footsteps shaking the earth beneath them.
With a roar, Foulgrin attacks the human, his massive club swinging like a battering ram. He felt the impact of each blow, the satisfying crunch of bone and metal as he sent humans flying.
He saw the iron elephant.
Suddenly a light tank machine gun was used against him, a larger caliber destroying his legs.
A troll's regeneration depends on its stamina and food like any creature, so it would have a limit, even if its regeneration was still very high.
Foulgrin, a war troll, was three times the size of a normal troll. He heals very quickly.
But he was pushed by a tiger tank.
The tiger tank easily crushes half of the Troll leader's body due to its sheer weight.
Several soldiers attack him simultaneously with Flamethrower.
"Agrrrrrr!"
Foulgrin screamed in pain. The mighty warrior fall

Empire's Soldier POV
2nd Lieutenant Marcus. A member of the 46th Infantry Regiment. They were sent to exterminate monsters in the southern forest.
The trolls are huge, attacking us with their thick, spiny bodies, sharp claws, and huge clubs.
They move with a surprising agility for their size and their roars send shivers down my spine. But we are not afraid. We are trained, disciplined, and equipped with the latest technology.
I raise my rifle and take aim as the trolls rush towards us.
Gunshots fill the air and I unleash a barrage of bullets at the oncoming monsters.
The trolls screamed in pain as they hit, but they kept coming, relentlessly.
I see fear in the eyes of some of my comrades, but I brush it aside. We cannot afford to falter now. We have to stand strong and fight with all our might. For the empire.
Chaos on the battlefield. The trolls and the soldiers engage in a brutal confrontation.
I dodge a swipe from one of the monsters claws and retaliate with a precise shot to his head. It falls to the ground, but there is more.
I can see our numbers dwindling as the trolls overwhelm us with their sheer strength and ferocity.
The biggest problem for us were the trolls.
But we are not willing to give up. We continue to fight.
I heard a roar behind me and turned to see a massive troll charging towards me. I brace myself, ready to meet it head-on. But before I can react, a blast of energy strikes the creature, sending it flying back. I look up to see a squad of soldiers armed with advanced weaponry, providing us with much-needed support.
As the sun begins to set, the battlefield is littered with the corpses of trolls and soldiers. The air is thick with the stench of blood and sweat.
But the fight is not over yet. More Reinforcement came. Bodies of dead soldiers and seriously injured soldiers were taken away from the Battlefield.
I see huge tanks moving forward. Crushing everything that comes before them. We continued to move deeper into the forest.
