Xiao Mubai thought that nothing would happen, and he would wait until six o'clock safely, and successfully complete this mission and spend twenty-four hours in the Battle of the Marne.

However, the reality is that it backfires and is frustrating.

Xiao Mubai received an order from the platoon commander Ernst, and the regiment headquarters ordered the soldiers of the first squad to rush to the regiment headquarters urgently.

This was Ernst's order, and Xiao Mubai had to obey it.

Wake up the sleeping soldiers, give the order amid complaints, and then take the slandered soldiers on the road with weapons and enough ammunition, and march forward in the rainy night.

The regimental headquarters was located in a French house on the edge of the town of Villiers, not far from here, and it took more than ten minutes to reach the dimly lit regimental headquarters after passing through several defense zones in the dark.

When he approached the regiment headquarters, he was stopped by the guard company, and the whole class stayed outside, Xiao Mubai was shot, and then walked into the command headquarters under the vigilant eyes of the guard company commander.

Even though it was early in the morning, the regimental headquarters was still very busy, and the officers and staff officers were constantly pointing and drawing.

There was also the colonel who was staring at the map in a daze. Xiao Mubai's voice alarmed the colonel.

The iconic beard, the tiredness that could not be concealed, the circles under his eyes were black, and when he saw him, he noticed the injury on Xiao Mubai's arm, and the colonel said solemnly: "Corporal, now a letter is to be urgently sent to the division headquarters." Damn the Frenchman cut the telephone line, your boss Ernst recommended you to me, presumably you are excellent. If your injuries prevent you from carrying out this mission, you can refuse and I will find someone else. ”

After speaking, he stared at Xiao Mubai with burning eyes.

What can Xiao Mubai say, can he say "Okay, I refuse". So I could only grit my teeth in my heart, pretend to be glorious, and say: "For Germany!" For His Majesty the Emperor! I'm willing to execute. ”

"Good, great, for Germany! For the sake of our great Emperor Your Majesty! Go ahead and set off with your soldiers! Then he waved his hand and signaled Xiao Mubai to act.

Wearing the raincoat that was distributed just now and changing out of the soaked military uniform, Xiao Mubai's gloomy face looked better, but even so, it still scared the recruits.

The direction of the division headquarters had just been pointed to by a staff officer, which was in Susienbri on the Marne, a distance of seven kilometers in a straight line, and the fastest journey was an hour's speed, with a passing of Chenaviil in between.

In the middle, the positions of the German and French armies were staggered with each other, and they walked into the encirclement by the slightest accident.

Feeling the night road, walking carefully in the dark. Xiao Mubai walked in front, Paul was at the back, and in the middle were recruits and veterans, keeping a delicate distance from one after the other. The road was slippery, and I accidentally fell down so that the speed was very slow.

The colonel's order was to reach the division headquarters as quickly as possible before six o'clock, and Xiao Mubai could only choose the nearest road directly to Susi Angbri, although the terrain here was complicated, Xiao Mubai had never walked it.

In the dark, it is impossible to distinguish people's attire, and sometimes it is not clear whether it is your own people or enemies.

Passing by several German positions, it was inevitable that the soldiers guarding would be alarmed, and then they would leave and continue their advance.

Xiao Mubai stopped, this was a battlefield, full of potholes and mud. Xiao Mubai shook the mud and stared around carefully, and the soldiers also stopped.

"Why don't you leave?" Paul came from behind.

"Look over here, the French position is there, we are now in the middle of the battlefield, it will take a long time to get around from that side, and it is likely that the mission will fail. This side used to be very dangerous, and the slightest movement would become a living target. Xiao Mubai pointed to both sides, his heart full of worry.

In fact, if you refuse this order, or take the safest path, as long as you pass six o'clock, Xiao Mubai's task will be completed, and he will return to the real world. However, if this was done, the order would not be fulfilled, and the soldiers, including Paul, would be punished, affecting their future promotions.

Xiao Mubai was a little embarrassed, and finally chose his comrades who had been fighting for a day. Even if you complete the task, but that process is what you want?

Xiao Mubai listened to Paul's opinion.

"Give the order! Let's be careful, maybe after this mission, we can also get an Iron Cross, and we can be promoted to non-commissioned officer in the future. "Paul aspired to be a non-commissioned officer, and for it he gave everything, even his life.

Xiao Mubai began to give orders, advance carefully, stay on guard at a distance of one meter, and break through the battlefield with one old and one new.

Xiao Mubai still walked in front, and Paul walked last.

Carefully, one after the other, stepping on the mud, like a ghost. Walk carefully to avoid stepping into the mud, and be prepared to slip and fall into a deep pit. Fortunately, there are no mines, otherwise it would have been dead.

The French position was like a monster in the night, opening its bloody mouths, waiting for its prey to come.

A third, a half, a two-third, and as he was about to get out, suddenly a recruit fell into a deep pit.

The soldiers all stopped, Xiao Mubai asked a few people to stay on guard, and then several others jumped down and pulled the soldiers out of the pit with all their hands and feet.

Xiao Mubai was about to go over to take a hand, when he suddenly saw a flash of fire, and then heard a "boom" explosion, and a bigger fire erupted.

Suffered! Now it's going to be a big commotion.

Xiao Mubai didn't have time to react, and saw that someone was injured in the explosion in the firelight, shouted to hide, and then jumped down to check the injuries of the wounded.

The injured people fell into the pit, and the air was filled with a strong smell of gunsmoke, Xiao Mubai didn't care about this, and checked the injuries one by one.

There were three people who jumped down to save people, two recruits, one veteran, and the one who fell into the pit was a recruit. Xiao Mubai didn't have time to find the cause of the explosion, whether the soldier pulled the fuse by mistake in the dark, or the dud bomb was touched before it exploded.

Xiao Mubai checked the wounds one by one, and the recruits who fell into the pit had stopped breathing, blowing up the clothes and flesh in their abdomen, and their intestines flowed out. A recruit fell to the ground with his face covered in blood and dying. The other recruit was fine, except that his arm was blown off, and he screamed. And then there's the veteran Paul, who has half of his face blown up, revealing bloody flesh and bones, which looks very oozing.

Xiao Mubai stared at Paul, Paul was very painful, and his unrecognizable face looked particularly hideous.

At this moment, the gunfire rang out, and the French soldiers were alarmed and fired in this direction, which gradually spread.

Xiao Mubai listened to the gunshots in his ears, his heart was full of anger, he had already refused the order, no matter how much he didn't have to sacrifice.

Suddenly hearing the whistling sound of cannonballs, Xiao Mubai felt pushed and fell into the dirt pit. Shells fell on the positions in a constant stream, covering the dirt pits.

Xiao Mubai looked back and found Paul lying in a pool of blood, his left leg was blown off, and he was bleeding incessantly. Xiao Mubai hurriedly took out the bandage and tried hard to wrap around Paul's bleeding wound, trying to stop the bleeding. Paul smiled miserably, and his mouth made a silent sound, and his unrecognizable face looked particularly hideous because of the pain.

Xiao Mubai looked around, ignoring the shrapnel on his arm, hoping that someone would come to the rescue. Just as I was looking around, I suddenly heard gunshots coming from close range.

Xiao Mubai looked back and found that Paul's pupils were dilated, black blood was flowing from a gun hole in his temple, the muzzle of the Luger pistol in his hand was smoking, and the hand holding the gun fell weakly. The gun was borrowed by himself to Paul to play, a weapon that could only be equipped as a non-commissioned officer squad leader, and Paul dreamed of owning it.

Xiao Mubai saw that the wounded soldier was bandaging at this time, and suddenly jumped away like crazy, ran to the dirt pit and screamed, and then was beaten into a sieve by bullets from both sides.

"Fack!" Xiao Mubai scolded.

At this moment, Xiao Mubai's eyes were slightly moist, this was a feeling that he hadn't felt for a long time. Xiao Mubai felt that tears couldn't stop flowing, his vision blurred his eyes, and he touched Paul's pocket with tears, took out the photo saved by Paul, and put it in his arms.

Six of the fourteen have died, only eight remain, almost all of them wounded.

Although he was very sad in his heart, Xiao Mubai forcibly calmed himself down, beckoned the rest of the people to hide in the deep pit, let the bullets fly around his head, and slowly crawled forward, like ants.

The rain was still fine and dense, and Xiao Mubai slowly crawled with a few soldiers behind him, crawling to the edge step by step. Covered with mud on his body, Xiao Mubai was silent, letting the rain wash over his body.

Almost at the speed of a turtle crawling, Xiao Mubai took nine soldiers and crawled slowly, and finally left this road where mud and blood were intertwined.
