The moon hasn’t come yet, and Lieutenant General Charles can still see the faces of these soldiers next to him, which are panicked and full of fear.
Behind them, the flame from the muzzle of China people flickered to form an arc like a crescent moon, which quickly forced them to come, and this arc was like a deadly machete leaving death where it passed.
They always keep the same crescent formation, so we can know that they are so confident, and they even kill people from it.
When passing the position of the artillery brigade, the artillery still held on to the position. Several 37-inch mountain howitzers along the road were still trying to fire at the enemy, but without China, the people were already rushing to the front, and the elevation artillery could no longer hit them.
These artillery pieces support the British army besieged by China in front, but in the dark, we are in a hurry, let alone whether we can hit the target. Even if we can, we don’t know whether the killing is one of our own or China.
And in the pursuit of * * team has reached the front, they also got a few guns.
Being rushed by the defeated army, even these brave artillery members caused a commotion, throwing away their shells and joining the fleeing team, which made Lieutenant General Charles feel even more ashamed.
We must turn this unfavorable situation around! Charles will secretly said to himself
But at present, the main thing is to get rid of the Chinese team and jump out of their rifle range.
Although riding at night, I always ran faster than others and came to a small town. At this time, the speed of the horse slowed down. At this time, Lieutenant General Charles, the cavalry guard, gave an order to the guards to dismantle a house next to it. The door panel, furniture and all the wood piles lit a big bonfire next to it, and then ordered the remaining guards to point their guns at the front side of the road.
When the defeated soldiers saw the flames gathering here, they kept running over and were stopped by the road guards to select officers from them and then form a company
Lieutenant General Charles ordered these reorganized troops to dig fortifications in the fields next to the town overnight.
Lieutenant general Charles is absolutely unwilling to fail. He blamed the failure just now on the fact that there is no danger of digging fortifications. He will gather the defeated troops and dig fortifications to prepare for the rescue.
The Chinese team didn’t catch up, which gave Lieutenant General Charles a valuable time.
The fact that the British * * team is a regular army is not a Ukrainian union. Except for a small number of people who are panicked like Lieutenant General Charles’ guard, most companies are very disciplined even if they retreat. Although many of them are incomplete, the organizational system still retains most weapons, but heavy weapons such as mortars and heavy machine guns are gone.
Nevertheless, it also gives the British army an advantage to reintegrate.
At dawn, Lieutenant General Charles counted the first army of the returning troops, and there were almost 10 million people in total, and a whole infantry division was established.
And the 16th division of the * * team is only about 23,000 people. Lieutenant General Charles thinks that although he has lost a lot of heavy weapons, he can still do a lot of damage to the * * team with his strong fortifications and the ability to fight.
Last night’s failure humiliated him, humiliated his family and humiliated the whole British empire. This shame needs the blood of China people to be washed away!
When the morning came, the east showed a soft light purple and a fish-belly white, or the sky showed a rose color and all kinds of wonderful colors because of the blood flowing all night last night. The wheat seedlings in the wheat fields outside the town were originally dark, and then they also showed an oily green light.
Outside, there is an international wheat seedling in the central square garden of the town. One kilometer away, the British army dug three ditches overnight to surround the town. These three ditches are like three black belts inlaid with green carpets.
After a busy night, the British army lay in the ditch and fell asleep with a rifle, but Lieutenant General Charles was not sleepy at all. He climbed the dome telescope of a small church in town and looked around. He could see the surrounding situation.
There is a little figure shaking in the hazy field of vision. Those familiar figures are China people! Their clothes are the same as those of the British army in color and style, because this one was seized by China from the British army.
It’s that their helmets are covered with colorful cloth. In addition, their oriental faces and skin colors are different from those of the British army. Their clothes and equipment were all produced by the British Empire, but now they are attacking the British team.
This is an absolute irony, and this is also the result of these guys from the British Staff Headquarters, including the failure of the current First Army, which is caused by the reckless command of these brainless guys.
China soldiers appeared all around the town. Lieutenant General Charles knew that they had been surrounded by China. When they were busy gathering defeated troops and digging trenches, China cleaned up the mess and eliminated the remaining British troops, and then slowly gathered around.
However, this is also what Lieutenant General Charles hopes that he will lose a large number of troops, and there is no other way out except to fight to the death with China and ditch and cause great harm to China.
In addition to slowly narrowing the middle team, a group of small black spots appeared in the sky and flew to the British defense line and the town.
This is a cannonball! Moreover, it is very likely that the artillery abandoned by the artillery brigade was captured by the China people and now they are hitting them on the head.
Then the roar came, and a group of shells, as black as crows, roared and flew over the fields and towns to blow up.
Black soil was thrown into the sky and then fell in a waterfall. The surface of the mud was still attached to the wheat seedlings, and the green oil turned black, and some of them ignited a fire.
The whole building in the town was blown up, and dust and smoke filled the whole town, and the fire burst into flames, making a crackling sound.
The church of Lieutenant General Charles was also shaking for a while, but he still insisted on this side.
The Chinese team has entered the shooting retreat range, but they suddenly lie prone and crawl forward in the wheat field.
The wheat seedlings have grown very tall, and it is heading season. China people suddenly dive into the green sea and seem to have disappeared.
I saw the flame spouting from the wheat seedling, the "chirping" bullet, the flight path with a faint light smoke, and the blooming blood flower at the end of the path! …,
That’s the blood that bloomed when the British army was hit! China people’s guns seem to be enchanted, and the bullets in them are like eyes. A shot went off over the ditch and prepared to shoot. The British soldiers were shot one after another. Looking from a height, rows of heads suddenly tilted, and the rifles in their hands were loose, and one by one they slipped into the ditch.
The first trench was broken without blowing off dust. The * * team hasn’t reached the front yet, and there is still a little bit left. The British army has retreated into the trench and jumped up and ran to the trench behind, but these cowards can’t escape the China people in the end.
In the eyes of Lieutenant General Charles, the * * team is like a crocodile with a big mouth, swaggering over the first line of defense.
Charles will know that he is wrong again. The trench may not be able to stop China people!
Many British officials always learn from the defeat of the Chinese team because they always believe that the Chinese team is unusually effective.
Although the facts are in front of us, even if there is an "English fox", Lieutenant General Charles doesn’t quite believe the facts in front of him and thinks it is just an illusion.
Yesterday is now, and all this is an illusion.
Chapter 265 One step forward is heaven
However, the guns, the explosions, the screams of the British soldiers before they died, the crackling sound of the fire burning, and the choking smell of nitrate and sulfur, and the thick smell of blood floating in the air all indicate that this is not an illusion.
Team Zhong * * quickly broke through three lines of defense and laid out more than fifteen thousand people outside, even unable to stay in the footsteps of a Chinese. Although they lost their heavy weapons, they had to show their heads in front of the team Zhong * *, even if a little bit of them would become China soldiers’ targets, China soldiers could lift their skulls with a single shot and then send them to heaven.
Lieutenant General Charles knew that he had saved the day. His two misjudgments of the Chinese team led to the annihilation of the first army.
Yesterday, after the ambush of the Chinese team, the most correct thing for him to do was to abandon the former army and then run away desperately without looking back. Only in this way can he escape from the China people, but he fantastically tried to be attacked by the former army to destroy the Chinese team.
When he fled to the town last night, he did the right thing, that is, he gathered the mutinous soldiers, but then he made a wrong judgment. He shouldn’t think that the Chinese team could be blocked by a few ditches, but he really thought that it would cause great damage to the Chinese team. His correct way should be to continue to escape and run out of the encirclement of China people while gathering the mutinous soldiers.
This is not to blame Charles, because the fighting capacity of China people is beyond his cognitive range. If he had known in advance that the fighting capacity of China people was so terrible, he would have stayed in Tours and would not have gone to war.
Charles Dome is not going. When he arrives at the church, he sees his diligent soldiers-Eric is sitting in the front seat of the church, quietly looking at the statue of Christ in front of him, and he has a special toilet for Lieutenant General Charles around his neck.
The whole town has been taken away by China people, including the priest church. Without it, except for Charles and Eric, it is rare to be silent, although guns rumble outside.
Charles called out "Eric!"
Eric’s conditioned reflex generally got up and took the neck toilet seat in his hand, but the Lieutenant General Charles’s Mazar was gone.
Eric looked at Lieutenant General Charles with a little guilt in his eyes and said, "No, Eric."
Sitting next to Eric, Charles patted him on the shoulder and said, "Eric, you are a conscientious soldier. I have wronged you for keeping you in the toilet seat for so long."
"I’d love to, general. It’s my pleasure!" Eric said that Charles didn’t wear a toilet seat, but he didn’t worry about losing his life.
Charles took this shiny toilet seat from Eric’s hand, and he was very touched at the moment, because it was not an ordinary toilet seat, but it was given to him by his beloved lover when he left.
Memento mori’s beautiful face, which was blurred by time, kind and strange, came back to Charles’ mind, and Charles thought of her with a sharp pain in his heart.
Charles seemed to see her fiery eyes look at him defiantly and passionately, and two passionate, greedy and red lips quietly pour out very gentle and passionate words. Her long white neck hung with two locks of furry hair … He once loved kissing her these curls … and liked to smell the faint intoxicating fragrance of her hair.
But these images soon drifted away dimly in front of him. Charles stared at the toilet seat unblinkingly.
The toilet seat was finally returned to Charles Eric. Although there was a sense of loss in his heart, there was a sense of relief at the same time, like unloading a heavy burden.
Eric took the rifle from behind and pulled a bolt. He could hear a "click" and the bullet was loaded.
"Eric, we have failed to save the law! If you don’t die for nothing, just wait here for the China people to come! Anyway, if China people want you to have two fingers, you can cut them off and go home, just like your brother, "Charles said."
"What about you, General!" Eric asked.
"I …" Charles stretched out his right hand and looked at his five beautiful fingers, each of which was well maintained. The nails were neatly manicured, neither long nor short. All five fingers were slender and smooth, and he wouldn’t give up any one to cut.
Eric was still stroking his rifle. He muttered to himself, "There is already a brother with two fingers cut off at home, so he can’t have a second one, or my old father will die without sleeping."
I remember when I just joined the army to bid farewell, Eric’s father, Old Eli-an old cavalry rode an old horse and drank a few glasses of wine, stroking his silver hair excitedly and exclaiming, "I knew you would become a real knight when you were one year old. According to Eric’s ancestral habit, I carried you to the stable and put you on the horse’s back. You little cub knew how to grasp the horse’s mane with small hands! ….. At that time, I guessed that you would be very promising-you are really getting ahead now. "
"My father, an honorary knight, absolutely won’t allow two prisoners with two fingers cut off at home. Although he is dead and can’t manage us anymore, I still can’t let him go to heaven. We are ashamed."
"And I can’t accept the insult of cutting off my fingers," Eric said resolutely
Charles nodded silently. Eric looked at his respected general and said, "But you are not a general. You are a general. You don’t even take a rifle … and you have to report the information of the Chinese team to the expeditionary force headquarters …"
"They will hold me accountable and laugh at my failure. They won’t believe what I said …" Charles said, don’t mention those stubborn British officials. Charles himself didn’t believe what was happening.
