C1925 Crazy Chinese (1/2)
The 210-millimeter-caliber shells were terrifyingly powerful. Tons of yellow sand were thrown into the air by the shockwave and then rained down on the earth.
The artillery position behind the sand dune was immediately silenced. Although the sand dune blocked part of the explosion's power, the remaining blast still shook all of the desert bandits, causing them to feel dizzy, their ears to ring, and their internal organs to shift.
Half of Scarface's body was buried in the yellow sand. When he woke up and struggled out of the sand, he found that his ears were full of buzzing sounds. He only saw his men shouting at him, but he couldn't hear anything they said.
His loyal subordinates grabbed his arm and pointed behind him. The scar-faced man cursed as he opened the street. It turned out that the two French spy s had already run away, leaving behind only two blurry figures in the dark desert.
”Go to hell! Damn bastard, you haven't even given us gold yet … ”Chase after him!”
How could Scarface not be angry. This time, he had brought out over a hundred men, and with just the explosion of the Zhiyuan Warship, twelve of them died on the spot. There were countless numbers of minor injuries.
Only now did he realize how powerful his opponent was. No wonder the French would give them so much gold. They were hired to deal with a fierce dragon! If he had known earlier, he wouldn't have been able to do this job even if he had doubled the amount of gold!
Dozens of desert bandits ran towards the depths of the desert, chasing the two spies as they disappeared into the darkness.
At this moment, no one in the fifth station could stop the Chinese Marines. Nearly four hundred marines were like tigers as they ran through the streets and alleys, and the soldiers were like crabs as they charged left and right.
A two kilometer charge was a piece of cake for a Marine's physique. Soon, well-built silhouettes emerged from the crumbled sand dune. However, what awaited him were the corpses on the ground and the cannons that had been partially buried by the yellow sand.
”Disperse the search!” All the bodies were gathered together to see if there were any survivors... The dead must also be searched! ”
”Excavating cannons, these are all the evidence we need. Searching for ammunition boxes and tents at the scene …”
”Two platoons of men on guard against the north... That's where the French barracks are... ”
The artillery position was immediately thrown into chaos. The experienced veterans were extremely efficient in carrying out their commanding officer's orders. Numerous torches were stabbed into the sand, filling the surroundings with bright light.
Immediately after, three green signal bullets flew into the air, this was to report the results of the battle to the Zhiyuan Warship, the three green bullets indicated that it was absolutely safe and the preliminary mission was completed.
Fei Dinanzijue also saw the signal detonator, although he did not know what it meant, it woke him up. Since the Chinese dared to use the main cannons to counterattack, then the greedy bandits would definitely not hold on, the Chinese should have already taken control of everything.
”This is bad!” If those robbers didn't finish the job well, then it would be bad, they couldn't let the Chinese find any evidence... Come, take me to the Zhiyuan Warship, I want to negotiate with the Chinese! ”
”Now we can only rely on diplomacy. We have to delay these Chinese and give the incoming Mediterranean Fleet some time to run away!”
”Command all soldiers at Station Five to head to the sand dune immediately, request to take over the site …” If the Chinese do not agree, you will rob and take away all the evidence! ”
Ferdinand's worry was right, because their previous plan did not anticipate that the Chinese would dare to throw their cannons into the army to counterattack the attacker. They did not even expect that the Zhiyuan Warship's main cannon would recklessly fire without regard for the Convention.
These two did not anticipate, and caused the early collapse of the desert bandits. They did not have the time to borrow the transport cannons, or even to fire all the cannons. In the end, they did not even have the time to take their tents and daily necessities with them.
