Chapter 39: The Roar of Tanks on the Plains

"How long is this artillery barrage going to last!" Major General Witt lay on the ground and shouted.

But his shout was completely swallowed by the exploding shells.

For a moment, Major General Witt considered giving up on taking cover and simply lying on the ground, thinking that maintaining this position was tiring and may not significantly increase his chances of survival.

But in the end, he decided to maintain the defensive posture.

The shelling continued, and suddenly he heard a crack as his watch glass shattered, and the splinters scratched Major General Witt's forehead.

Major General Witt was shocked, reasoning that if the watch glass couldn't withstand the blasts, it would be unlikely for a person to be unscathed—

Then he realized his nose had already been bleeding profusely, with blood continuously streaming from his nostrils and dripping onto the ground.
