Two hundred and forty bars, dog meat, wine money

Outside, it was finally all dark.

Looking out the window, across the river, where the Germans occupied, it was dark at first glance, and when I looked closely, behind the first few rows of dark houses on the opposite bank, there was a faint light of fire, which was also being roasted by the Germans.

Like the Allies, the Germans were exhausted, and their rear was struggling to resupply their soldiers as quickly as possible.

This is like two evenly matched masters, in the end, both sides are exhausted, and they are already familiar with each other's martial arts, it depends on who recovers their skills first and strikes first.

It was still raining outside, and the commanders of both sides did not want to attack each other at this time, because both sides had set up secret posts on the banks of the river, and it was difficult to form a sneak attack.

Moreover, the terrain in the farm is complicated, many places are overgrown with thorns, and at night when it rains, the vision is even worse, and if the sneak attack is unsuccessful, it will become the other party's appetizer, and you can't retreat if you want to.

Since both sides are resting, their respective defenses are naturally watertight to prevent a sudden sneak attack from the other side.

From time to time, there were cold gunshots outside, accompanied by terrible screams, which were particularly terrifying in the night.

This should be the snipers hiding in the shadows on both sides to test each other, but also to suppress the other party, let the other party know that there are snipers in their army, and don't act rashly.

When Fan Xiaosi and Gordon came, they saw a lot of empty wine bottles on the side of the road, and the two concluded that there must be a place to sell wine nearby.

So Gordon took Fan Xiaosi outside to inquire around, and finally let them know that there was a tavern in the manor, which was still selling wine before dark, and the owner had already left after dark, and was escorted to a safe area by the army. This tavern is run by an elderly couple who have lived here for decades.

When the Allies landed from Normandy, most of the inhabitants of the manor left overnight, and when the two sides fought near and inside the manor, the tavern opened by the old couple was unharmed by the fire.

The soldiers on both sides tried to avoid the tavern, where many soldiers had bought alcohol and kept warm in the cold rain.

To put it bluntly, the old couple is harmless to humans and animals, and poses no threat to the warring parties.

The old couple hid in the tavern all day and did not go anywhere until the Allies completely occupied the place, and the headquarters of the 101st Airborne Division felt that the old couple would be more or less life-threatening if they hid in the tavern, and in the dark night, the shells did not have eyes.

So after persuasion, the old couple left in the Allied military vehicle.

Gordon and Fan Xiaosi sneaked into the tavern and didn't need to break in, because the door of the bar was just hidden.

The two walked into the bar, and there were more than 20 bottles of wine on the counter, and the cash cabinet on the counter was full of stacks of coins, including francs and dollars.

This is the money that the soldiers left behind after taking the wine.

It seems that business in this bar, which has no owners and waiters, is better than it has ever been.

Looking at the price of each bottle of wine on the counter, Gordon and Fan Xiaosi took out all their savings and took all the wine, and owed the insufficient wine money first, and then sent it back later.

The two returned to their large warehouse, and when the soldiers saw the wine, they immediately gathered around, and each of them drank the hot water in the jar, divided the wine equally, and then each took out the money and returned it to Fan Xiaosi and Gordon.

Winters, who rarely drinks alcohol, also got a small half a cup, he sat with Yan Zhi, and continued to smoke the cigarette that had been dried, at this time it was still a little early to go to bed, and he had to wait for the clothes to be completely dried and put on his body, and put out the open fire, so that he could sleep peacefully, in case he was touched outside the house by the enemy in the middle of the night, he came along the place where there was an open flame, and a few grenades could kill everyone in the warehouse.

More than a hundred people, more than 20 bottles of wine, quickly distributed, the soldiers felt that it was not enjoyable, so Gordon and Fan Xiaosi scraped together enough money, and took six or seven people out and returned to the bar.

The liquor on the bar counter is sold out, and there must still be a store of liquor in the underground liquor store at the bar.

Private Alton Moore and Majira also went out with him, and just now Gordon and Fan Xiaosi said that there were a lot of field backpacks next to that bar.

When they arrived at the bar, several Allied soldiers came out of the bar empty-handed and shrugged at Gordon, indicating that there was no alcohol in the bar.

Fan Xiaosi and Gordon waited for the Allied soldiers to leave, and then led the soldiers to push open the door of the bar and enter, and went to the underground cellar to look for wine.

Alton Moore and Machera go to the place where the field backpack is set up to find something to eat, and they both lose their field backpack.

While searching for the field backpacks, Macira felt a little uneasy, because he realized that these backpacks were taken from dead paratroopers, and if they were Germans, he would gladly accept them, but these backpacks were all paratroopers killed by the allies.

Driven by hunger and cold, however, they poured out all the contents of their backpacks, gathered sugar, hygiene products, food, and money and prepared to take them away.

Suddenly, Alton fell to his knees and said in a barely audible voice, "Let's get out of here." ”

Magira glanced at Alton and saw that he was staring at a pair of small knitted baby shoes, his face pained with remorse.

So Machera also knelt down, and they put back everything they had picked up.

The field backpacks of the Germans were another matter, and whenever they had the opportunity, they went to the backpacks of the Germans in search of souvenirs.

Especially for a veteran like Zhao Fugui, who touches the corpse, others can find all the pockets on the corpse of a German devil in five minutes, and Zhao Fugui can find the corpse of five German devils in five minutes, guaranteeing that he will not let go of any pockets and hidden pockets.

The German devils have watches, have good cigarette boxes, and the cigarette boxes have the mark of ** cross, which is a sought-after commodity for soldiers in the independent company, and it doesn't matter if a good dagger is good, and the dagger can't be taken out to pretend to be forced, and the cigarette box can.

Ever since Tuesday got a glittering ring, the gold ring has become a favorite among the soldiers of the Independent Company, who often take cigarette cases and watches and go to exchange rings with the soldiers of E Company.

Regardless of the size of the gold ring, it is still gold, and it can come in handy when it is brought back to China in the future, but the watch is useless, most of the people who can buy watches in China are officers, and the soldiers dare not sell the watch to the officer, if they do not do it well, they will not only be subjected to a burst of abuse and beating, but also have the possibility of losing their lives.

Zhao Fugui and Tuesday Wa also went out with a few soldiers, and in a short time, they dragged back a few fat dead dogs from outside.

The dogs were just killed by them, these dogs were kept in the yard, on a leash, the owner was in a hurry when he left, he didn't bring the dog with him, and there was food left by the owner in the dog basin.

The dogs that gnawed on the dead bodies on the road, Zhao Fugui and they wouldn't eat them for the time being, unless one day they really didn't have anything to eat.

Zhao Fugui's technique of pulling dog skins is very quick, and he is a veteran at a glance, when he was a bandit, he often went down the mountain to catch some dogs and came back to eat.

Cows, horses, and donkeys are all that the common people have in their families.

Zhao Fugui never did the lack of virtue of robbing ordinary people's cattle, horses, and donkeys.

The dog's internal organs were all thrown away, and several dogs were roasted directly on the fire rack.
