Note: This story is about an end of the industrial age Facist Scandanavia, and is seen through the eyes of a soldier in the 14th infantry army.
The year is 1670. After a long and bloody war, The Scandanavaians and The Mayans drive the Spanish off the Mayan Homeland. With promises of eternal friendship, the two countrys leve each other to their own affairs. Ten years later, at the bidding of the Sumerians, The Mayans launch an assault on their allies, and invade Scandanvaian controlled Egypt and and Carthage. In Egypt the war becomes a stalemate, while in the freezing forests of Carthage, the Mayans advance relentlessly towards resource rich cities. Ragnar, Facist leader of Scandanavia, knowing that their war effort could be undermined if Carthage falls, sends the elite 14th infantry army to hold the enemy at Carthage. He orders them to use bullets, clubs, even bricks, to beat back th enemy invader. In Carthage, their could be no retreat.
I shifted, bringing my bolt-action rifle to bear. The men behind me had heard it too. Tank treads. We knew our comfortable stay in the city of Carthage was about to end. We rushed to the trench lines, some of us pulling out small axes' in reverance to our berserker ancesters. Mayan tanks rumbled out of a small forest, fast approaching the woods that we had fortified. Some of our bombers flew over our heads and dropped bombs, destroying some of the myan tanks, but behind them came infantry and cavalry, hundreds of them. bullet fire erupted across the line. cavalry charged us and were mowed down en masse, their horses unused to the snow. I aimed my rifle slowly but easily. I had my target picked out. He was a cavalry man who appeared to be trying to rally the horsemen, tanks and infantry. I pulled the trigger, my rifle barked, and his head snapped back. I methodically worked the bolt-action mechanism and picked another target. He too died. I went through the process three more times before i reloaded the rifle. I felt no sympathy for these traitors. Behind us, new Scandanavian tanks rolled onto the field, firing first at the tanks, then at massed groups of horsemen and infantry. The men of the 14th cheered and fired, not caring if this was but a small force, not caring that a force almost three times our size was fast approaching. All that mattered then was that we had stopped the enemy first, and we knew we would do it again.
I know thats kind of strange, and i'll continue to add more if it gets decent review.
