Chapter 569 (2/2)
Of course, it doesn't happen without hitting the wall, but most of the time, his achievements are very fruitful.
Just like the decision to rush to help Adolf not long ago, his appearance is the last straw to crush the second defense arranged by the dabion army under chilav. If it hadn't been for his help at that time, once the enemy rallied, I'm afraid even his second infantry regiment could not have been spared, let alone aldorf. However, his decision also led to the near total annihilation of Stalin.
But can this be said to be nock's fault?
From the strategic level, the importance of nock's rush to aid Adolf is far greater than that of Stalin.
”Go north!”
”North?”
”Yes.” Nock nodded, ”there are valleys and hills in the south. The enemy appeared on our flank after breaking through Stalin's defense line, but we didn't see the remnants of Stalin, which proves that Stalin didn't retreat south after the defense line was broken through by the enemy. In the East is the Luohua Valley and in the west is the panda collar. There are large enemy troops in both directions, so it must be a trap to go in these two directions. The only thing that can survive is the north. ”
”My lord... Do we need to join the follow-up troops first?”
”No!” Nock shook his head. ”Stalin, they will not escape too far. They will break out after a fierce death battle. There must be little physical strength left. Coupled with the heavy rain for two days, Stalin and they will certainly choose a place for the final defense To tell you the truth, if Stalin is still alive, we really have to thank the heavy rain these two days, because the impact of the weather is not only on one side. ”
No one refuted nock's words, because as soldiers of the second infantry regiment, they all knew that nock's battlefield intuition had always been extremely accurate.
Soon, the second infantry regiment set out again.
This time, their marching speed was no longer in a hurry, but the marching speed was also not slow, and the formation was still a warning front. This formation can ensure that the second infantry regiment will not be defeated due to sudden attack. Similarly, it can turn to attack formation or defense formation at the first time when the enemy is found. Usually, when the second infantry regiment puts forward this forward formation, it means that nock is ready for full-scale combat.
When night fell again, nock finally found the trace of Stalin and others.
In fact, in the current situation, it is absolutely impossible not to find Stalin as long as he is not blind.
……
This is a high-lying slope. It is a peak mouth of the side branch of the Luohua mountain. It is only a hundred meters high.
Although the height is not very high, there is a very steep slope on this slope. There are only two flat terrain, that is, if you want to go up to this slope, you can only start from these two flat terrain.
Occupying the top of the highland is the first infantry regiment that chose to break out after the defense line of the back Valley hills was broken through by the dabion army.
At this time, less than 30 soldiers of the first infantry regiment survived here.
Although there were more than a hundred people when they broke through the siege at that time, they were continuously reduced in the subsequent pursuit. When they arrived at this highland, there were only about 70 people left. Then there was another round of extremely fierce highland offensive and defensive war. Perhaps because of the poor gods, the first infantry regiment, which was about to be destroyed, was lucky to escape this kill in a sudden rainstorm.
However, because of hunger and fatigue, coupled with the scarred body, more than a dozen soldiers died because of the rainstorm.
Today, after the second rainstorm, there are only more than 20 people alive.
Stalin, though still alive, was already very pale and almost bloodless. I don't know whether he took off his leather armor or for other reasons. Anyway, he didn't wear it on him at the moment. Instead, he was wrapped with a red bandage around the whole upper body - a bandage soaked in blood and rain. It was natural to clean Stalin's wound and replace the bandage at this time, but obviously, There is no such material in this highland.
Of course, the most shocking thing is not so.
But at this moment, Stalin was tied to the flagpole of a flag, but if you look carefully, you can find a ferocious wound on Stalin's right leg from the root of his thigh to his ankle. Obviously, because of this wound, Stalin could no longer stand, but his pride and honor did not allow him to lie down, so he would fix himself on this flagpole - as long as he could hold weapons, he would never give up.
”Sir, it seems that the enemy is ready to attack.” A man of about twenty-six or seven said in a deep voice.
There was a scar on his face that crossed his left eye from his forehead. The wound was turned over with blood and flesh, faintly purple, and blood would flow out from time to time. It was obvious that it was a very ”fresh” wound. In addition to such a ferocious scar on his face, he did not wear leather armor, but was wrapped with blood red bandages like Stalin. Fortunately, he could stand here by himself without stabilizing his body.
On the bloody line of defense defending honor with blood and life, nearly 100 officers belonging to all levels of the command system of the first infantry regiment died. This man, who was just a squadron leader with a relatively low rank in the first infantry regiment, was far from entering the command system, but now he was the highest rank among the soldiers of the first infantry regiment except Stalin.
The ferocious scar on his face also fell to save Stalin.
Hearing the man's words, Stalin glanced down the slope of the highland, where numerous torches had been lit. At this time, the sky was not very dark. In fact, there was no need for torches to illuminate. Therefore, it was easy to guess the enemy's purpose - morale blow. In the face of the besieged enemy, lighting torches for siege at night can greatly weaken the enemy's morale, lead to the decline of the enemy's combat effectiveness, and even win without fighting.
These are conventional tactics.
However, Stalin's face was somewhat disdained if he still made such a move under the current circumstances. Not only Stalin, but also other soldiers of the first infantry regiment who survived at the moment, also had a thick color of disdain and ridicule on their faces.
If it can really hurt their morale or make them surrender, will the first infantry still make a final struggle in such a place? Because it is clear that the enemy's next attack will be the total destruction of their first infantry regiment, all of them have long ignored life and death. As long as one person can be buried with them, they will not suffer a loss. If two people can be buried with them, they will basically earn without losing.
”Are you afraid?” Stalin asked. Although he was pale, his voice was still very powerful.
”Fear!” Everyone laughed loudly.
”Yes, I'm afraid, too.” Stalin smiled, ”but...”
”Like a hero!” Someone interrupted Stalin. He was a young man - not so much a young man as a teenager, because his face was still a little childish, but his eyes were very firm and did not fear the coming death.
Everyone laughed again.
Stalin's smile was still on his face. He said softly, ”everyone, please allow me to sincerely say thank you I'm glad to have you with me in this last time. You are all true heroes in my eyes. You not only defended your dignity, but also the honor of our first infantry regiment! I think we have succeeded in letting the damned Dabian army know that our first infantry is not a soft persimmon to pinch. Although we can't completely stop them this time, we have successfully broken their teeth. Next, let's break their teeth again! ”
”Break their teeth!” The soldiers shouted loudly, and everyone's face glowed with vitality again.
Even if they know, this may be the so-called reflection.
Behind Stalin, more than 40 bodies were neatly placed, and each of them had a peaceful and satisfied smile on his face. Although the leather armor on their bodies was in tattered condition, as long as they were swept away, they could still find that their appearance after death had been sorted out. These were the soldiers of the first infantry regiment who followed Stalin all the way to break through the siege and died in the war.
If Stalin has any regrets at this time, it is probably that he failed to collect the bodies of the robes who died in the back Valley hills.
But he believed that someone would collect the bodies for them.
Of course, someone will avenge them!
”My Lord!” Suddenly, the squadron leader uttered a cry of surprise.
”What's the matter?” Asked Stalin.
”My Lord, look over there!” The squadron leader reached out and pointed not far from the slope.
Stalin's eyesight was not particularly good at this time, but he could still vaguely see that a fire appeared abruptly in the direction pointed by the squadron leader.
That should be a lit torch.
Is it the enemy's reinforcements?
The people on the highland were stunned: ”those guys are really timid, ha ha! I have to send reinforcements! ”
But the next moment, near the bright light, flames began to be lit.
Orange flames spread out one by one, covering a large area, looking like the blooming flowers on the other side of the Styx river.
Then, the flame army, like a sea of flowers, soon rushed towards the highland.
From far to near, the cry for killing became louder and louder.
The dabion army below the Highlands soon became chaotic.
”My Lord, look at that flag!”
Stalin tried to open his eyes and looked at the square flag flying in the wind hundreds of meters away.
The pattern on that flag may not be understood by others, but it is absolutely impossible for Stalin and even the whole first infantry regiment to forget.
A completely expanded left wing and a completely closed right wing.
That's the emblem of the Connery family!
It's the flag of panda's army!
As like as two peas of Stalin's flag, which is tied behind him at the moment.
”My Lord! It's reinforcements! ” The squadron leader shouted excitedly, ”it's our army!”
Tears fell on Stalin's face. He clenched the long sword in his hand, wiped away the tears on his face with his left hand, and smiled and scolded: ”that guy nock always chooses this critical moment Everybody listen, remember your battle position, hold on! Our reinforcements have arrived and victory belongs to us! I have only one request, live! ”
”Yes!”
How far is the distance between hell and heaven?
Stalin didn't know.
But if he were to give his answer now, he would certainly answer: one second.
