Chapter 112 - Fall of the first line of Defense
A messenger entered the headquarters "Commander Amancio B-20 sector troops need support, we have news that only one Ballista is running"
Amancio looked at his map "If this situation is repeated in other sectors, it means that the giants knew where to point their javelins.
But it is better to be safe than sorry, begin to distribute the grenades to the soldiers of the second line of defense, at this step the first line will be exceeded.
Inform the cavalry that they are alert for possible leaks in the defense, we have to avoid at all costs to break the capture net.
Finally, the river cannons support with shrapnel or cannon fire, may the mother Tonantzin and the great Zeus support us in this battle to destroy the enemies of Rome.
Roma Invicta. "
Everyone in the room shouted in unison Roma Invicta and began to carry out the orders that Commandant Amancio had said.
Lucas shot his last Bolt over the giant that had entered the trench, it was at that moment that a hand touched his shoulder, when he turned to see who had been noticed to his sergeant covered in giant’s blood.
"Well done Lucas, we have orders to retire to the second line of defense, it’s time to get your ass out of this place"
Lucas smiled "Sergeant that’s good news but I have to go for Tizoc, the Ballista is currently operating"
At that moment a giant fell dead on them, fortunately, his body was left in the trench and they were crouched down.
The sergeant raised his head to see the corpse of the giant who made a roof to the trench "These damn giants at least this served as something, go for Tizoc I for my part will notify the rest of the squad.
Lucas nodded and took out his saber to be able to defend himself on the road was an enemy and began his journey to his partner Tizoc.
The road was chaos in some places he had to step on small puddles of blood and viscera that reached his heel, the further he could see some soldiers fighting with natives.
Lucas clenched his sword preparing to fight when he heard a shout from behind, when he turned around he could see a native boy running towards him armed with an obsidian knife.
Before he could hurt him he kicked him and pushed him to the ground and then buried his sword in the chest of the native child ending his life.
He took his sword from the chest of the native boy and when he wanted to continue his way another boy pounced on him jumping over the trench, his obsidian dagger managed to bury her on his shoulder, Lucas took the boy’s hair and threw him to the ground where he walked with his He bounces his head and his sword buried her in his chest ending his life.
"These damn giants using children as soldiers, we must report it to the emperor. We have to free those little children from the barbarous yoke of these shits."
Lucas with his left shoulder incapacitated by the dagger of that obsidian ran to where his companion Tizoc was.
When he arrived he could see Tizoc sweating preparing another shot of Ballista, with his right hand he helped Tizoc place the giant Bolt and I hope he will shoot.
Tizoc looked at his partner "Just a dagger on the left shoulder, I guess you’re a complicated type of murder."
Lucas massages his forehead "Haha, you’re a Tizoc clown bastard but we have to retreat to the second line the fireworks can start at any moment and I don’t want to be when that happens"
Tizoc shook his head and almost laughing said to Lucas "You don’t want me to carry you, you look very badly hurt"
Lucas looked at Tizoc who began to laugh after his comment, the two left the Ballistas area and headed to the second line of defense, to seek shelter before they begin to throw grenades on the giants.
The road was quite smooth but they could see a large number of doctors carrying stretchers with wounds of different severity, while they walked they could see their sergeant who was directing doctors to expedite the evacuation.
Tizoc approached the sergeant "We have evacuated the Ballistas area, Lucas is injured. It seems that the giants are using children as soldiers"
The sergeant could see the obsidian dagger on Lucas’s shoulder "Tizoc takes Lucas to the infirmary of the city of Suchilapan, they have worked very well but it is time for the second line of defense to do his job"
Tizoc thanked the sergeant and took his friend to the infirmary, while they both retired the sergeant looked towards the first line of defense, he knew that it was only a matter of time to be oversaturated and the second phase of the battle will begin.
At noon the first line of defense was oversaturated and the giants began to run towards the second line of defense where they hoped to break it as they had done with the first.
While one of the giants was running, he realized that some metal balls with something on the trenches were thrown where he ran.
The giant smiled and shouted while holding one of the grenades that had been thrown at him "Stupid humans that’s all they can do now ..."
His voice was silenced at the time that hundreds of grenades exploded by flying the feet of the giants or penetrating metal chips into different parts of his body.
The giant who took the grenade could see how his hand was blown up in small breasts while something entered his eyes, leaving him trapped in the darkness of death, scenes like this were repeated in different parts of sector B ...
