"Boom!" A grenade landed in the position of the Northern Dwarf Empire's troops, raising a cloud of dust that eclipsed the sun.
On the edge of the explosion, a soldier was struck in the head by shrapnel and fell, his face covered in blood. Further away, soldiers were knocked askew by the blast.
The troops of the Northern Dwarf Empire had actually never fought such a battle before; they were suppressed by the enemy's artillery fire and couldn't lift their heads, yet they couldn't see the enemy's artillery troops at all.
The traditional tactic of lined-up battle formations had clearly become outdated, and engaging in such tactics was now no different from courting death.
Tactics had fundamentally changed because of the advancement of weapons. Nowadays, an attacking formation in line was met with one outcome, that was being effortlessly annihilated by the opposition's machine guns.
