Chapter 55: The Battle of the Manor 13

The guerrillas went on the offensive. The men of the fortifications outside the gate withdrew one after another, they left with their front feet, and the rear corner of the partisans took up the place and began to shoot at us to cover the men in the rear.

They moved quickly and were clearly planned. Just when I was thinking about letting everyone stabilize their positions and stalemate with the guerrillas first, and use the time to consume the powerful offensive of the guerrillas, I suddenly saw explosions in many places on the courtyard wall, and even two explosions in the courtyard.

The other side did not have mortars, and even if one or two guns were not destroyed, they should not have shelled multiple targets in such a short period of time. Then there is only one answer, and that is that the other side is using something like a grenadier or a grenade launcher.

This round of bombardment had a great impact on the defense of the courtyard wall, and many people were bombed or blown away. There were several breaches in the courtyard walls, and the gate was missing at the beginning of the battle. We now have more and more gaps, and it is instantly more difficult to defend.

"Drag the oil bottle! Let those who are not dead rise and continue to fight. Just go! I shouted to the oil bottles that were struggling to shoot at the guerrillas not far from me. But as soon as I finished speaking, a row of explosions struck again. This time, the main target of the attack was the side I was responsible for defending, that is, the left side of the gate, and a bombing point was just outside the courtyard wall not far from me.

I was knocked to the ground, and there was a ringing in my ears, and I couldn't hear anything else. I struggled to get up, and looked sideways to see that many of the guerrillas were moving towards the courtyard wall. It seems that the other party wants to start opening the breakthrough through the hole in the courtyard wall.

I retracted and dragged the bottle back at the moment. I grabbed him and said, "Let's prepare grenades." The other side is about to start a surprise attack. ”

The oil bottle shouted at the defenders in agreement, and I shot twice again and pulled out two grenades. He quickly threw two grenades at the approaching figures. Then, the people on my side threw the grenades out one after another, and there was a dense explosion about twenty meters outside the courtyard wall. But at the same time, the opponent attacked the right side of the people using the same methods, grenadiers, launchers, and hands, although they had the people behind to provide cover for fire, but still stared at the bullets coming from the courtyard wall and threw grenades or grenades into the courtyard wall or courtyard.

Explosions exploded one after another on the right side of the gate, killing and wounding many people, and the resistance on that side immediately weakened. I immediately got up and rushed to the right, now Walker doesn't know what he's up to, there is no one in charge at the moment and it's easy to collapse after a heavy blow.

As soon as I got to the right, I saw Mighty Mouse and two men shooting at a hole in the courtyard wall. I came to his side and grabbed him and said, "Let people use grenades!" Blow up with a grenade. Pull people back a little, the courtyard wall is no longer reliable. Evacuate people to the courtyard and use these sandbags, as well as the rooms on both sides as cover. ”

"Gypsies! The guerrillas are coming up again! The shout of dragging oil bottles came from the left side of the gate. I said another word to the mighty mouse, then turned around and went to the gate to look out.

With the flickering light of the fire, the opponent again began to attack the courtyard wall to the left of the gate, and some guerrillas tried to attack the gate. This is to rely on the advantage of numbers, after opening the gap, more points at the same time to break through, let us take care of one and lose the other.

I looked at the oil bottle and shouted, repeating what I had said to the mighty mouse. Just as the oil bottle answered the call and organized everyone to retreat, two rockets flew out in succession from the platform on the second floor of the big house. Two rockets exploded among the partisans facing the gate and the partisans attacking the courtyard wall on the right, and then the machine guns on the platform opened fire.

This must have been done by Walker with men, and the guerrillas only paused for a moment and then tried to attack again, with the momentum of taking down the entire courtyard wall and even the courtyard in one fell swoop. I don't care what they do, I'm still pulling people back, I'm going to narrow my defenses and hold my ground.

Just as I continued to organize the retreat and arrange for the buildings in the courtyard and the sandbags piled up at zero hour for defense, rockets flew out of the platform again and exploded outside the courtyard wall on the right, and it seemed that someone from the guerrillas had already touched the wall.

I quickly came to a pile of sandbags in the courtyard and crouched down to look at the sides, and those who could retreat were now hiding in their own places, the oil bottle and a few people hiding behind the wreckage of the blown up and collapsed tower not far from me, and the mighty rat hiding on the other side of me, behind a flower bed in the courtyard.

"Mighty Mouse! Beat the guerrillas when they try to enter through the gates or through the holes in the courtyard walls. After I finished speaking, I saw the mighty mouse nod in understanding, turned his head and repeated to the oil bottle. As both of them expressed their understanding and passed on the instructions to the others, the movement of the guerrillas outside suddenly became smaller.

"What's going on? What are they doing? The oil bottle looked at me with a puzzled look on his face.

I didn't answer his question because it didn't need to be answered at all. The guerrillas will not stop there, they will only replenish the losses of personnel and adjust the changes in the defense after completing the first wave of attacks. The stagnation of the attack at the moment only foreshadowed a more aggressive attack in the next round.

"Where is Paro? Is he alive? I asked about the oil bottle.

The oil bottle pointed to his left side and said, "There." ”

I looked in the direction he was pointing and didn't see anything, so I said, "Get his machine gun ready, and in a moment these holes in the left courtyard wall will be up to him." ”

"Understood!" The oil bottle agreed.

As soon as the words of the oil bottle fell, a rocket suddenly flew out of the courtyard wall, directly hitting the platform on the second floor of the big house. Then the sound of machine guns rang out outside, followed by a dense number of grenades flying in from outside the courtyard walls, and a moment later a violent explosion was set off inside the courtyard walls.

Fortunately, I removed all the people, otherwise I would have to be reimbursed a lot. And just as I was secretly rejoicing, gunshots rang out from all the breaches and on both sides of the gate, and bullets flew into the courtyard, and a figure attacked from these places.

"Shoot! Shoot! Knock them out! I shouted and fired, and the guards on either side of me started shooting. However, the machine gun on the platform on the second floor did not ring again.

Many of the guerrillas, who were the first to break into the hospital, were hit by bullets and fell, but this did not frighten the others behind them, who continued to shoot and rush in under cover. Especially at the gate, because the gate is much wider than the other holes, and it is more conducive to the guerrillas who are outnumbered and powerful, the pressure here is unusually high.

I tried to shoot at the guerrillas on either side of the gate, but the cover fire was also very fierce, with bullets hitting sandbags in front of me from time to time, and many flying past me. Gradually, I was able to aim and shoot less and less, and the pressure increased.

The guerrillas, perhaps seeing that our resistance was gradually suppressed, accelerated the pace of their attack. Although some of them were shot and fell to the ground from time to time, they had already penetrated the courtyard through the main gate and the holes in the courtyard walls on the left and right sides. As soon as I saw them enter the courtyard, someone with an RPG came in with them, and after a simple aim under the cover of the others, they were ready to launch.

“RPG!” I yelled as I shot at the RPG shooter, but missed, and the rocket flew out and hit the big house behind me. At the same time, rockets flew from other breaches, one hitting a house on one side of the courtyard, where guards had just been removed from the courtyard wall.

After a round of rocket bombardment, more partisan groups began to pour in, and from time to time grenades were being fired from grenade launchers at our various firing points. The explosion not only brought us casualties, but also the psychological shock, I looked at the guards around me, in addition to those who were killed and wounded, among the people who were still alive, these people who were hiding from the explosion, I could feel the fear in their hearts from their movements, their eyes and the sound of shouting.

Do you want to stick to this place? Why don't you retreat into the big house? But how long can you last in a big house? When the morale of the people is gone, then everything is over.

Just as I was hesitating, the sound of machine guns sounded again in the large house behind me, and there were also shots from other guns. I glanced back at the big house, and there were several windows and balconies on the second floor facing the main door, and tongues of fire from the windows on the first floor.

The dense bullets hit the ranks of the guerrillas who had stormed the courtyard, and there was nothing to hide in the courtyard, and at the moment the shelter was occupied by those of us who had been removed from the courtyard wall, so the place where the guerrillas were located could not be avoided, and they were shot one after another and fell, and some tried to return fire on the spot, but they were soon hit and fell.

"Shoot! Shoot! Get them out! "I screamed and pulled the trigger, and the bullet hit two guerrillas near the gate who were trying to fight back. The guards, who had been in fear, saw hope at this moment, as if someone who was about to drown had grasped the straw that saved his life, and began to struggle desperately. They frantically shot at each other, and even screamed at the guerrillas.

The fierce counterattack caused the guerrillas to quickly suffer heavy casualties, and they had just come in too many people because we were suppressed, and there was no time to retreat at this moment, and many of them were directly killed near the holes in the courtyard wall and the gate. Soon the surviving ones stopped trying to fight back on the spot, and they quickly retreated, hiding on the outside of the courtyard wall, and only the fire points of the guerrillas, who had been responsible for covering the shooting, still firing at the big house and the courtyard from time to time.
