C2841 French counterattack (1/2)
At this time, Sony Town had already become a small lake that was connected to the other side without any difference in water levels, and was as calm as a pond.
Zemuwa River was still flowing towards the Atlantic, the lake was already full and there was no longer any spare capacity left, at this time the dike had already exploded, and the dangerous water attack ended.
They also discovered this. Many French military ropes were tied to rocks to explore the depth of the water, only to discover that the water was only 2.5 meters deep, less than a floor deep.
In this kind of calm water, even if one was slightly submerged, they wouldn't be able to drown in the water. Many French soldiers began to search for objects that could allow them to float.
Doors, empty barrels, and even a loop of cork around the waist could provide a little buoyancy, and soon the first wave of attack would be ready.
A Erfulade had gone mad, even the entire French Army had gone mad. They were going to launch the most primitive melee battles, they were going to use their sabers to end the final fights.
On the other side, the Chinese soldiers were also making preparations for the final battle. The limited number of bullets was concentrated on the sniper, while the Molotov cocktails and grenades were concentrated on the experienced veterans and military officers.
The remaining soldiers could only polish their own bayonets. Of course, their favorite weapon was still the extremely powerful Engineer's spade!
The Engineer's spade s with blades were the favorite in close combat amongst many Chinese veterans. Compared to the weakness of the bayonets, which could easily be broken after piercing through the enemy, the round slashing Engineer's spade s were more beneficial in actual combat.
A very strange scene appeared on the battlefield. The more than four thousand cavalrymen of France were clamoring and shouting war cries one after another. On the other hand, the Chinese side was silent and calm to the point of making people terrified.
”Ship... Quick, look... There's a boat coming down from the upper reaches of the river... ” A Erfulade jumped in excitement when he heard the news. He raised his scepter and shouted, ”Get on the ship! Prepare to attack! Destroy the enemy forces! ”
It was indeed a cargo ship snatched by the French. This small river boat could hold more than 30 soldiers at once. This time, there was a total of 12.
”Get on board! Prepare for attack... Our forces are five times stronger than the enemy's, drown them! ”
The soldiers jumped onto the freighter and shrank as much as they could to allow more soldiers to board. At the most exaggerated moment, a small boat was packed with fifty soldiers.
In the end, the twelve boats filled up more than five hundred French soldiers s. Under A Erfulade's orders, they slid down the oars and started attacking the Chinese-controlled houses.
”Fire …” ”The sniper set a target to clear out the officer …”
Pah pah pah … Bullets were fired from the windows of countless buildings. The French soldiers who could not avoid the bullets on board the boats could only endure the rain of bullets. In the end, they even used the corpses of the dead to serve as human shields.
”Continue!” Don't worry about the casualties, paddle... ”Boat...” With a slam, the bullet entered the French captain's mouth and was interrupted in the throat before he could complete his command.
The corpses collapsed on the boat and became the shields of the other officers and soldiers, who continued to advance tenaciously with the corpses of their commanders in their hands.
”Charge in …” Attack the windows on the second floor … ”
The bow of the boat bumped into the second floor's window of the tavern, and the French soldiers rushed in with their sabers in hand. However, they met with a pincer attack from two Engineer's spade s, chopping off the heads of the French soldiers who were in the front.
However, there were simply too many French soldiers who were attacking. Countless French soldiers were rushing in through broken windows. The narrow room immediately fell into a battle of cold weapons colliding with each other.
