Chapter 61: A Grand Speech
Chapter 61: A Grand Speech
There were constant bullets coming from the shadows to snipe the officers, but the charging group of more than 10,000 people was like a huge sea of people.
The bullets fired from the trench line were like a torrent, swallowing up lives one after another, but they could only repel the attack with difficulty. The soldiers of the Prussian Regular Infantry Division lay on the cover formed by the bodies of their comrades and fired, ignoring the cost. This advancement was extremely effective. The Prussians had advanced halfway in the 800-meter death zone from the church to the trench.
Tommy used up all his ammunition and leaned against the trench wall to light a cigarette. His deep blue eyes were filled with boredom and hatred. He not only hated the Prussians, but was also dissatisfied with his own general. The team that had more than 500 people at the beginning of the battle was reduced to only 400 in a blink of an eye.
The enemy's second retreat was nothing more than hiding in cover or simply lying down on the spot. The large number of officers killed made the major general of the infantry division furious, but the top priority was to promote new officers.
Jiang He checked the ammunition. After redistribution after the war, there were still more than 855 rounds, which was sufficient. All the military merits were converted into D-level and after paying Si Ning 2051%, the total was . The number of kills in the origin mission target reached an astonishing .
"Would you like to play cards for a while?"
Si Ning took out a deck of playing cards, and his delicate face was also covered with dust.
David, the assistant not far away, had a dull look in his eyes. He didn't understand how this guy could be so leisurely.
Charles XIV lowered his head and remained silent, his hands trembling slightly. After witnessing the brutal Blood Wing attack by the Rhine Commander, he began to doubt the correctness of the war. He could not get any glory on the Leden front, and most of the enemy's line-filling divisions were unarmed.
Seeing that no one was paying attention, Si Ning rolled his eyes, moved closer and elbowed someone, whispering: "These two child soldiers are going to be a problem. I have never led an assistant. What do you think?"
"It's no use looking at it."
"There it is again, the robot's unique tone!"
……
23:30 at night.
Tommy found someone, his face turned pale, and he grabbed the other person's shoulders tightly.
Jiang He knew the ability of the Wildebeest Knight and said solemnly: "What did you feel?"
Tommy said with difficulty: "Disaster is imminent... It's not quite accurate to say that. It's like you are in the same coffin with a bomb that is about to explode. If you don't retreat, you will die, but if you retreat, you may not survive."
"When the inevitable happens, I will definitely run away." Jiang He said frankly that he had no reason to fight to the death for Great Britain.
Tommy had a complicated expression and said, "You and I are all knights, and we will go our separate ways when the time comes, but the soldiers are just ordinary people."
"What else can we do? We can't just feed ourselves with bullets first." Jiang He spread his hands and replied, "The other side is driving tens of thousands of people to launch a frontal charge. To put it bluntly, it is tantamount to suicide. The problems are so serious that they are obvious to the naked eye. If the camp headquarters really thinks that our 500 people can hold off two divisions for half a day and a night, then Summerford should be taken out and shot."
Tommy gasped and said incredulously, "You mean..."
"We are just pawns used to delay time, brother, just show your respect." Jiang He patted the other party's shoulder. It is said that people will learn something if they are taught once. There is obviously a precedent of the No. 145 position, but this guy still has illusions about the rear-end command. It can only be said that the glory of the British Knights is engraved in his bones.
Tommy lit a cigarette with a trembling voice. The orange-red light burned quickly. After a few seconds, he exhaled a white line and sighed, "I want to return to Birmingham alive. It is a place shrouded in coal smoke all year round. I have three brothers and a sister. My elder brother Arthur appears to be gloomy and cruel, but in fact he tends to hesitate at critical moments. My younger brother is obedient but reckless. My sister will be a great beauty in the future, but she is too willful..."
Jiang He didn't want to listen to the other party's announcement of the dishes, so he waved his hand to interrupt, "Please make a wish to God. I only have bullets to respond to you."
Si Ning jumped out, looking amazed, "Look at this guy, he looks dead, did I just hear his last words? He's so crazy about setting a flag, usually he's guaranteed to die."
She suddenly became trembling, raised her hands weakly, and choked, "Damn it, I was shot... Rhine, you... you must take good care of them for me... please..."
Jiang He's eyes seemed to be looking at a strange creature.
Si Ning regained his calm demeanor, stroking his chin and muttering, "Is it because I didn't act like one? This kind of lines are the same no matter how they are changed. Forcing others to take on responsibilities that should belong to oneself is too self-centered. Once a person escapes, he will become weak, and when he becomes weak, he will be overtaken by regret, and then severely beaten to death!"
Tommy remained silent and turned away without saying a word.
The trenches returned to silence, and the soldiers played cards and drank. When they didn't have to shoot, time was particularly unbearable.
Jiang He said calmly, "It's a thankless job." The evening breeze blew her long hair. Si Ning crossed her arms, raised her head and said arrogantly, "From the time humans encountered fire, put on animal skins and held spears tightly, to the time when tribes attacked each other everywhere, and finally the birth of civilization, it all originated from the law of the jungle. The strong must decide how to fulfill even the kindness of the gift. My cheap uncle was about to die of alcoholism, and I helped him correct it violently. It's natural for him to fear me, because the fear of the weak is like nectar, which can make the strong stronger."
Jiang He had a headache and didn't understand what the other party was thinking.
"If you have something to say, you might as well say it directly. I'm not that hard on myself that I have to catch up with your train of thought."
"Damn it, you are indifferent to my speech."
Si Ning pointed his finger at the other party and said seriously: "How about being my vice captain? Let's go find the legendary Dead Island together. I need a warrior and gunner who can wield swords and guns. You can do it all by yourself, and you also get a crow as a gift."
Jiang He didn't even think about it and answered flatly: "No."
"Yeah! Is the invitation not straightforward enough?"
Si Ning frowned slightly, "Then come and be my goose."
The scene fell into silence. Jiang He lowered his eyes in deep thought. At this moment, the enemy might attack at any time. It would be unwise to fight with them, but he really could not bear it any longer.
Wuhe, who was watching from the sidelines, whispered, "Doesn't she look like a rather aloof human female?"
"Ha, what do you know, Xiao Hei? That is the majesty and composure of the strong. The more I disdain it, the more the weak will be in awe of it. It's like the Arctic ice sheet that covers the land and plants. When people come to see me, my greatness will fill their eyes. It's like sitting on the toilet but forgetting to put down the toilet seat. The cold touch on the buttocks will catch people off guard and shock them."
"What a strange Ning metaphor." Wuhe was powerless to complain.
"So your answer is that the Lemon Master will never be rejected a second time."
"I disagree."
"It's really yours!"
Si Ning had a cold smile and chuckled, she was pretty like a forest elf. Judging from her appearance alone, her innate charm attribute might have reached eight or nine. As for ten points, it was the theoretical limit for ordinary people. Even if players specifically added points in the future, it would be difficult to change the essential bone structure. More emphasis would be placed on temperament, skin texture and expression.
Jiang He guessed something and asked, "Is the Cheetah Knight on the other side right now?"
Si Ning nodded and took out a short crystal spike. The image of the church appeared on the diamond-shaped surface.
"He's not the only one. The Sword Against the Tree has three leaders, namely, the Insect Sword, the Thunder Sword, and the Falcon Sword. The Thunder Sword was promoted in recent years. He's mysterious and doesn't get along with the veteran Insect Sword. Now the four knights under the Insect Sword have arrived, and Cheetah is one of them. These four are the Insect Sword's trump cards against the Thunder Sword. After killing Cheetah, if you two don't want to follow me, then we'll run away separately."
Si Ning emphasized, "I have 26 subordinates, and I don't need anyone."
Wuhe whispered, "She wouldn't be playing house on the cruise ship alone, would she?"
Jiang He replied in a low voice: "Maybe, I guess few people are willing to get along with someone who has a twisted mind."
A man and a bird were whispering.
Si Ning laughed out of anger, "How narrow-minded."
Just as Wuhe was about to speak, a cannonball fell from the sky.
Not far from the trench, Charles XIV, who had been staring at his hands with his head down, was blown to pieces.
Then there were explosions along the entire trench line, smoke filled the sky, and looking out into the distance under the night sky, all the muzzles were gushing flames as the Prussian artillery roared.
