“Is it here?”
Looking at the quiet village not far away, the commander of the fourth brigade said lightly, his voice fell, and the deputy commander on the side nodded and said: “It is indeed here, but sir, you really want to take everything The villagers are…”
Although the adjutant did not finish, the commander understood what he meant. He was silent for a while and agreed: “Yes, the military order is like a mountain. I can’t violate the order above.”
This is indeed an order from the top of the legion. After several months of the attack, Rudolf Vrba, the commander of the Fourth Army Corps, finally could not contain his anger. After torturing the identity of the attacker, he gave the order. The brigade of the attacked Idrissa Box went to the village where the attacker was located, and dealt with the villagers living in it in order to emulate others.
The so-called handling, although the above did not clearly state what the handling method was, but the officers below were very clear about what the officer meant. Although they were unwilling to swing butcher knives at innocent civilians, the soldiers had to obey military orders as their bounden duty and had to do it.
“I don’t think this is a good plan.” The adjutant shook his head, and expressed his opinion very directly.
The commander and him are on the same front, but he can do nothing, pursing his lips, looking at the quiet village where the danger is not yet known, and staying silent for a long time, saying: “Go ahead.”
“A row of two attacked from the front, three in a row of four attacked from the left and right flank respectively, and the five in a row went to the back of the village. Don’t let one escape.”
“…Yes.”
The adjutant sighed, the general situation was settled, and he couldn’t continue to say more. He could only watch the commanders of the brigade take their subordinates to the fighting position after taking orders.
About ten minutes later, each company entered the fighting position, but they were also discovered by the villagers in the village. Those villagers quickly realized what was about to happen. They knew that their attack on the imperial army had been exposed, and the other party came to avenge them.
Seeing the villagers rushing to take up arms and want to resist, the commander of the brigade can only feel that they are really seeking their own way of death. If they hadn’t resisted, he would still be unbearable and let some old and weak women and children secretly, but now they have risen to resist. , The brigade commander also put away the kindness in his heart, and coldly ordered the whole army to attack.
The sorrowful horn sounded from the rear of the company, as if it were mourning for the villagers. In the horn, the soldiers of the five companies raised their guns and moved forward slowly, watching these well-trained regular troops get closer and closer. , The villagers were even more confused. They screamed and ran to the earth wall in front of the village, trying to fight back by relying on the earth wall, but the symbolic meaning of the half-high earth wall was greater than the actual meaning, and they could only comfort their hearts.
Whoosh whoosh——
After the soldiers of the Fourth Battalion entered the range of their bows and arrows, the villagers hiding behind the soil wall opened their bows and fired. The sparse arrows flew in the air, but they were soft and weak. They only flew halfway and lost their strength. On the ground, the poor counterattack not only did not make the soldiers of the Fourth Battalion feel scared, but inspired their morale.
Ta Ta Ta-
“Raise a gun!”
After entering the range of the musket, the soldiers of the four companies that launched the attack raised the musket under the order of the officer, put the **** in front of their shoulders, and pointed them at the back of the surging earth wall.
“shooting!”
Bang bang bang ——
The moment the shooting order was issued, hundreds of raised muskets spewed flames and smoke, sending the deadly projectiles out of the barrels. The projectiles flew in mid-air at high speed, crackling against the dirt wall, and some unlucky ones just appeared. The villagers shot over, and there were screams and screams of horror from behind the earth wall.
After the first round of the volley, the first row of soldiers was loaded with ammunition in place, and the soldiers of the second and third rows passed through the passage left by the soldiers in the front row and continued to advance. The villagers who were beaten by the first round of volley Zi was unable to organize a counterattack. They shivered and hid behind the earth wall, looking at the villagers who had been shot to death, screaming.
When they were only thirty steps away from the soil wall, the former second row of soldiers who had become the first row were ordered to raise their muskets and shoot at the villagers behind the soil wall. Although this round of shooting did not hit a few people, The morale blow to the villagers is extremely impressive. After the second round of shooting, before the third round of salvos arrived, some villagers hiding behind the soil wall could not accept this suffocating sense of urgency, and ran directly into the village, exposing their backs to the enemy. Under the gun.
Seizing this opportunity, the third round of volleys followed, and there was a burst of bean-like gunfire. The villagers who turned and fled fell to the ground. Their backs without armor had a muzzle the size of a soybean. , The blood is like a shot. Although the muzzle looks insignificant from the outside, the lead bullet is severely deformed after it penetrates into the body, chucking the human organs into a ball, and there is almost no possibility of surviving.
At the end of the three rounds of salvos, the soldiers of each company did not need to load ammunition at all. They straightened up their bayonet-equipped muskets amidst the roar of the officers and charged the village. The villagers hiding behind the soil wall were distracted and motivated. Not strong, after hearing the battle cry of the regular army, he was so scared that he was so scared that he didn’t even want to fight back, so he turned and ran away without hesitation.
The soldiers of the Fourth Battalion drove straight in like this, stepped directly over the half-person high wall, and rushed into the village. They killed everyone who was still staying outside, and a few people kicked open the closed door~www .mtlnovel.com~ Rush into the room and kill the villagers hiding inside. Screams, screams, begging for mercy, and curses gathered over the village, and a **** massacre began.
…
The village is not large, and the number of villagers living in it is only between one hundred and two hundred. Therefore, the punishment of the villagers only took less than half an hour before it was over. Lying in his own blood, the few fish that slipped through the net were also resolved by the five companies who had been waiting there on their way to escape.
Half an hour later, the blood-stained soldiers trot all the way to the sharp whistle and gathered in an orderly manner in front of the open space in the middle of the village. Each of them was more or less stained with blood. In addition to the muskets, He mentioned some robbed things, although there was no verbal explanation, but the joy on their faces showed that the spoils they had gained during their trip were plentiful.
These soldiers are so easily satisfied. The joy of grabbing the spoils directly dispelled their guilt of massacring the villagers. What’s more, their trip was also for revenge on their comrades who died in the attack, so they did not have any negative emotions one by one.
Upon seeing this, the commander of the Fourth Battalion ordered the soldiers to set fire to the village that became a ghost village, and then led the army back to the Amatlia stronghold in the context of the skyrocketing fire.
