Chapter 433: The Sneak Attack of the Mountain Battalion
There was not much time left for the mountain camp.
Counting the days, when the mountain battalion arrived in Iran, the main force of the British army had already gone out of the mountains, but I am afraid that it has been fighting with the main force of the Great Zhou for several days now.
The situation on the battlefield was changing rapidly, and no one in the mountain battalion knew how long the main army would be able to hold out.
Perhaps, the British army that had just arrived was defeated by the main force of the Great Zhou, which had been prepared for a long time, but it is possible that the main force of the Great Zhou was defeated by the vengeful British army, all this could happen, and no one dared to draw conclusions lightly.
Now the mountain battalions don't care about the situation on the main side, all they have to do is to destroy the British logistics center in Iran as soon as possible.
Once the British army on the front line has no logistical support, no matter how fierce it is, it is only a tiger with its teeth knocked out and can only be slaughtered.
Iran is a plateau with vast deserts everywhere, and everything can be seen clearly from miles away, let alone so many people in the mountain camps.
Even in the middle of the night, it was not easy for the mountain battalion to quietly approach the British logistics center.
Because there were no weeds around the area chosen by the British army in the later period, it was difficult for the mountain battalion to borrow something to hide their whereabouts.
What's more, these days are the middle of the month, and the moon is very bright and clear when it hangs high in the sky.
In addition, Iran is an arid and rainless area, and it is impossible for the mountain battalion to launch a sneak attack on the British logistics center on a rainy day.
So after careful consideration, the mountain battalion came up with a solution, that is, to enter the mountains again and sneak attack a small group of British troops transporting supplies to the front line.
Then, they disguised themselves as British soldiers, so that they could get close to the British camp.
But it was only possible to get closer, the appearance of the English people was completely different from the appearance of the Great Zhou people, and if they got closer, the British guards would soon be able to detect it.
More critically, the soldiers of the mountain battalion did not have anyone who could speak English.
In fact, in the whole of the Great Zhou, only some of the students who graduated from the Royal Academy can speak English, but these students are mainly distributed in the important areas of factories, schools, and scientific research institutions around the Great Zhou.
As for the army, there really wasn't anyone who could speak English, not even a single one who could speak French.
Therefore, it is not an easy task for soldiers who want to pretend to be British troops transporting materials to approach the logistics center of the British army.
But the mountain battalion did it anyway.
The mountain battalion robbed a British detachment of more than 500 people in the mountains, changed its clothes, and then began to ride a horse-drawn carriage to the British logistics center.
Of course, the soldiers of the mountain battalion loaded the wagons with grenades and other explosives.
Taking advantage of the night, this 500-strong 'British army squad' came to the gate of the British army's logistics center.
Taking advantage of the hazy moonlight, the soldiers patrolling the logistics center could vaguely discern that the group of people who came to their side were wearing clothes similar to themselves, so they thought that they were the squad that had returned from transporting supplies to the front line.
The reason why the British patrol soldiers thought so was actually quite simple.
Because whether it is the native Iranians or the soldiers of the Great Zhou, their service characteristics are completely different from those in Europe.
That's why the patrol soldiers are so sure.
Of course, when the team approached the gate, they still had to be interrogated as usual.
Can you hear the patrol soldiers' 'grunting' words, who can understand the people in the squad?
I don't know who said, 'Your uncle, Lao Tzu is your ancestor' and started to do it.
The other soldiers of the squad had already prepared, and when they saw that someone was the first to speak, they immediately raised their guns and opened fire on the British patrol soldiers.
The British patrol soldiers were stunned.
Completely unprepared, they had already been fired into a hornet's nest by the flying bullets.
Immediately afterwards, the carriage at the front was driven to the gate of the British barracks. The soldiers in the back just shot, and those grenades left on the carriage exploded violently.
The gates of the British barracks were blown open at once.
At this moment, the British soldiers who had been sleeping in the camp suddenly woke up, picked up the weapons in their hands one by one, broke out of the camp tent in disheveled clothes, and rushed to the place of the explosion.
Through the firelight, the British troops who stayed behind found that there were only three to five hundred Great Zhou soldiers in front of the gate of the camp.
"Just three or five hundred people, you dare to sneak attack our army's camp, I think you are impatient!" A contemptuous smile appeared on the corner of the mouth of the British general who stayed behind, and he was immediately ready to order the soldiers to fight back.
But at this time, he felt the earth tremble, and he couldn't help but look up, but saw in the distance, a large number of black shadows were rapidly approaching his side.
Looking at the scale of these dark shadows, there are at least tens of thousands, maybe more.
The British generals did not dare to slack off, and hurriedly ordered the soldiers to push over artillery and other heavy weapons, and began to wait for the battle.
A quarter of an hour later, the British side was arranged, and the mountain camp was getting closer and closer to the British camp.
Seeing this, the British general pursed his lips excitedly, because the mountain battalion only needed to walk another five hundred steps to reach the range of artillery.
But at this time, the mountain camp outside suddenly stopped, which made the British generals puzzled for a while.
But immediately, the British generals reacted.
Because at this time, a fierce gunshot rang out behind him.
"Damn the Great Zhou people!" Seeing this, the British generals scolded. Because at this time, the British generals found out that they had fallen for the tricks of the mountain battalion.
The more than 10,000 Great Zhou soldiers in front of them were clearly the ideas that Great Zhou used to attract them.
And the real direction of attack of the mountain battalion is its own rear.
At present, most of the troops in the logistics center of the British army are gathered in the front, and the garrison in the rear is very empty.
By this time, it was already a little late for the British generals to transfer troops to support the rear.
Because at this moment the soldiers of the mountain battalion behind had already broken into the camp of the British army and began to set fire everywhere.
"Where's the arsenal? Where is Yingyi's arsenal? In the crowd that broke into the British camp, a man who looked like a general shouted there, "If anyone finds Yingyi's arsenal, immediately detonate it for Lao Tzu!" ”
Obviously, the general of the mountain battalion also knew how to end the war quickly, which was to detonate the British arsenal.
Once the arsenal of the British army is detonated, then all the British soldiers will become lambs to the slaughter, whether here or on the front line, to be slaughtered.
As the general shouted, the soldiers of the mountain battalion stopped raising their guns to shoot, but took out the grenades on their waists one by one and began to throw them around.
Regardless of what was piled up in front of them, whether it was munitions or food and grass, they only cared about grenades moving forward......
