It would have been fine if Hyde had just shouted "The traitors are over there", but he had instead shouted "Behind us". Generally speaking, on the battlefield, it is most dangerous to have an enemy behind you. As soon as this sentence was shouted, everyone hurriedly turned backwards, but the soles of their feet were covered with mud, and although the swamp shoes reduced their pressure and prevented them from easily falling into the mud, this thing was not slippery! As soon as you turn around, the soles of your feet are naturally easy to slip, and when you slip under your feet, you will fall down a large piece with a bang.

If it was an ordinary time, so many people fell, everyone would just laugh. But this is a battlefield, and so many people have suddenly fallen at once, and it is inevitable that a few of the remaining people will not be sober-minded, and a pimple in their hearts will appear, "My God, so many people have been killed at once!" We're surrounded! "Thoughts.

Then I don't know who first shouted: "We are surrounded, run!" Then someone took the lead, like a duck on a waddling stagger, and the two big feet stomped on the water and mud and ran back. Naturally, a flock of ducks followed and ran back.

The swamp was so slippery that some people naturally fell down in the process. Then the fallen people were naturally taken by the frightened ducks as if they had been killed by the guerrillas, and then ran even more desperately.

In fact, it is not difficult to understand that these people just fell and were not killed, not to mention that when these people fell, there were no gunshots. And in this day and age, whispered firearms did not yet exist.

But a lot of things, once a trend is formed, rationality or something doesn't work very well. For example, in some countries and regions in later generations, because of listening to rumors, there was a trend of everyone going to the supermarket to grab all the toilet paper. Then, the host of a certain media refuted the rumor on the show that "it is unnecessary to rush to buy toilet paper", so that his family could hurry up and grab some toilet paper. He really didn't believe the rumors, but he also knew that if he didn't follow the robbery, there would really be no toilet paper at home for a while.

The situation today is somewhat similar. When everyone ran up, there were some people who understood a little, such as Hyde, such as O'Kelly, who knew what was going on, but after shouting a few times and finding that everyone didn't pay attention to them at all, but just desperately ran away, they could only follow, and they had to run faster, otherwise, everyone ran away, and only the two of them were left, and the guerrillas couldn't wipe out so many "security forces", and couldn't they all annihilate the two of them?

So everyone turned around and ran together, just like a herd of beasts that had heard that "Goo Dong is coming". The beasts in the story ran wild until they encountered the lions, and the soldiers of the "security forces" also ran wild until they encountered the British army.

"Stop!" The British officer drew his command knife and shouted. Behind him, several rows of lobster soldiers had already raised their rifles.

Some of the ducks that didn't feel good began to slow down, but because of the slippage under their feet, this slowing down and crackling fell again. Those behind did not hear, or did not hear, the warning of the British officer in front of them, and they continued to run forward.

"Fire!" Without hesitation, the British officer slashed the command knife in his hand.

"Bang......" The gunshot rang out, and the black dog who was running back was really knocked down this time.

"Go back, go back, you can't run, sir, sir, they're really going to kill!" Captain O'Kelly shouted.

"Ready!" Edward's elongated voice could be heard in the air.

The soldiers of the "security forces", who were not yet dead, scrambled up from the muddy water, turned around and walked into the swamp. But in the process, a handful of people were killed by the guerrillas, many more by the British, and some were unlucky to get stuck in the quagmire despite wearing swamp shoes - but not yet.

Edward's face was scornful as he watched the "security forces" crawl toward the swamp again.

"Now, except for the cavalry and artillery, all the other troops, put on swamp shoes, follow me into the swamp, and destroy the rebels." Edward put the command knife back into its scabbard, and then gave such an order.

The lobster soldiers also put on swamp shoes and began to enter the swamp along the path taken by the "security army".

Captain O'Kelly ran away with the rest of the "security forces" for a while, and when they turned around, they could no longer see the red British soldiers, so everyone stopped to rest and breathe.

"Captain...... Captain...... I really can't get in here. If we don't know the place well, if we go inside, we will definitely be shot. ”

"If we don't go forward, can Chief Stafford spare us? I killed so many brothers just now, do you see that the chief frowned? If you want me to say, we can only go forward, there should not be many rebels in front of ......" said another soldier of the "security forces".

"What if there are more than one or two rebels ahead. If you want me to say, captain, let's just put a few shots indiscriminately, which is worthy of the money given by the British, and then let's find a place to hide for a while, and then go out and say that we have fought with the rebels for a while, and the rebels have run away, and we haven't caught up...... And then don't you have it? ”

"That's it, Captain, we can't run any further. You see how many falls along the way, our guns are all flooded, and they are all muddy water, and if you want to fight, you can't hit it......"

Captain O'Kelly thought for a moment, and then said, "Go, find some guns that can be used, and then shoot two shots, and then let's go and hide in the reeds over there for a while, and then we will talk." But when we walk here, we leave footprints, and they follow them, sir, and after a while, we must ...... first."

Although the black-skinned dogs had already walked this part of the way, the lobster-soldiers still walked very carefully in the swamp - and they could not be careless, and from time to time they could meet a black-skinned dog who was stuck in the mud when he saw them and shouted, "Sir, for the sake of the United Kingdom, pull brothers".

In this way, the lobster soldiers naturally walked very slowly, and after walking for a while, there was a sudden crackling gunfire in front.

"It's the security forces guys who are fighting with the rebels!" Edward Stafford excitedly drew his command knife, "All speed up, catch up, and destroy the rebels!" ”

The soldiers quickened their pace.

After driving for a while, it seemed that I had arrived at the place where the gunshots had just sounded. It's just that there is no one here now, neither a traitor nor a black-skinned dog.

"Damn, where have all the people gone?" Edward Stafford said angrily.

"It should be that the rebels have retreated, and the security forces have chased after them. Look, sir, there are traces of walking here. Another second lieutenant officer pointed to a place for Edward Stafford.

There were indeed some messy footprints in that place, stretching all the way to a shallow surface of the water. The water didn't look deep, but it was a little wide, and it was so vapoury that I couldn't tell where the guys had come ashore in front of them.

"They must have waded through the water." The second lieutenant said.

"Do they still have the guts to chase after them like that?"

"Maybe they saw the rebels go over like this, so they followed."

Several of the junior officers began to deliberate. Finally, everyone turned their attention to the battalion commander, Edward Stafford.

But Camp Commander Edward Stafford hesitated, because the footprints were already submerged under the water, the water here was not clear, and it was overgrown with all kinds of aquatic plants, although the water was not deep, but it could not be seen underneath, and it was quite dangerous to go into the water here and walk over.

At the same time, in the reeds facing the water, several pairs of eyes were staring at the big red Brits.

Several guerrilla members had just witnessed a farce: a group of black dogs first ran here, then took off the swamp shoes on their feet, tied them in a different direction, and then fired a few shots into the sky, and then ran back the way they came, and disappeared after a while. Then after a while, a large group of lobster soldiers appeared.

Several of the guerrillas knew that the mud beneath the surface of the water was so dangerous that they could not cross that section of the water even if they wore swamp shoes. Now I see these British people hesitating. Several guerrillas looked at each other, and then Higgins lowered his voice and said, "Wade, let's step back a little bit and shoot a few shots, I guess those British will definitely be fooled." ”

Several of the guerrillas stepped back and fired several shots into the air.

"Over there! It's over there! It should be the security forces and the rebels are fighting again! ”

Now that the whereabouts of the security forces are clear, the security forces and the rebels can get by, can't the dignified British Army get by?

So Battalion Commander Edward Stafford quickly made a judgment and gave the order to "all go into the water, cross the water, and pursue the rebels".

Then the heroic lobster soldiers began to slowly walk into the water.

The water is not deep, it is only knee-deep at first, and the mud below is softer, but not so submerged. So everyone moved on. In order not to give the rebels a chance to escape, everyone even had to go as fast as possible.

The water gradually deepened, from just over the knees to over the thighs, from the thighs to the waist, and from the waist to the chest, and in order to avoid the water of the guns, the soldiers had to raise their guns high above their heads, as if they were raising their guns in surrender. And the mud under their feet is getting softer and softer.

"Keep it up, it'll be over soon!" Battalion Commander Edward Stafford vaguely felt that something was wrong, but he still encouraged the soldiers next to him.
