Chapter 134: Alone in the Depths

Although the crowd said it was easy, in reality, no one was sure that he would defeat Lamont at night. Even, Anselm has made it clear that this Sof Oasis is not a stronghold that must be defended, and they only need to target Lamont alone.

"It seems that we have reduced a lot of tasks, but in fact, it is simply a matter of increasing the difficulty." Trood leaned to the side a little lazily.

At that time, both Derek and Trode were too excited to properly understand the deep meaning of Anselm's words, and just followed his words, mistakenly thinking that he was relieving them of the burden, but in retrospect, this was not the case at all.

First, Lamont, as the commander, will never act alone, so that there will be no chance to catch a single person; Second, if you want to defeat Lamont, you must at least break up his squad, although his proud phalanx of Churchill I infantry tanks is not so easy to break.

In short, in order to catch Lamont, then his squad must be defeated. On the other hand, if you want to defend the Sof Oasis, you don't need to complete such a rare condition, and on a whim, you casually agreed to Anselm's conditions, which can be said to be a set.

Although it is not very certain that Lamont must be attacking at night, the vision during the day is very good, and even if Lamont comes, it will be too late to prepare, so Trode and the others are just recuperating in the position and waiting for the decisive battle at night.

"Are you idle?" Derek said as he looked at Trode, who was walking slowly.

Trode shook his head left and right and said, "No, I'm just thinking about the night battle, although it's a sneak attack, but I'm not particularly sure how I think about it." ”

"Humph!" Derek let out a sigh of relief, "Isn't it just a matter of lighting, I don't think it's too late to talk about it." ”

"So confident?" Trood squinted at Derek, he didn't expect that in the face of the same enemy, Derrick would feel so much worse than him.

"Have a fart confidence." Derek's answer was completely unexpected: "I don't have confidence in any of the methods, so I feel that when the time comes, I will feel on the spot, so that I will not panic because of any plan that has failed." ”

"That makes sense." Trode touched his chin and nodded, "But why does it give people the feeling that it's just a nervous bar." ”

"Who are you talking about?" Derek listened to Trod's words and already raised his fist.

"No, no, no, I didn't mean that." Trode hurriedly waved his hand, and he said as he thought about it, "And the thing that the staff said, do you think it's that likely?" ”

"Which one?" Derek grinned and glanced at Trode, seeing that he was making a "1" gesture with his right hand, and immediately reacted, "Ah, I think they guessed correctly, Lamont will come alone." ”

Derek picked up a wooden stick from the ground, drew a pattern on the ground, and said, "First of all, we have no information other than the telegram from your Roy brother that Lamont is going to attack Position 37 in the Souff Oasis. The level of secrecy and surprise of the battle plan was not low, and they should not have expected that even then there would be a leak. ”

Trood couldn't help but laugh when he looked at the oasis, Position 37 and the enemy he depicted, and the wooden stick that Derek was holding made a "click" sound, and he lowered his head and said, "Why are you smiling again"

"No, nothing," Trode put his hand over his aching stomach from laughing, and then tried his best to stop laughing, "You go on, I'll listen." ”

Derek glanced back at him to make sure he wasn't smiling again, then continued to draw with the stick, and said, "Besides, Lamonte's personality is a bit conceited, so to speak, until now, he didn't take any of our squad seriously, and he himself used to do it as usual. Derek drew a cute version of Lamont on the ground, which almost made Trode laugh again, and he had to cover his mouth and continue to listen to Derek.

Derek didn't bother with that, he continued: "I just analyzed his personal character, and now let's talk about the effect of his doing so on the collective. If you think about it, if Lamont had raided our positions with a large force, even if he had won, the publicity would not have been very effective. But what if Lamont's squad comes and makes a surprise attack? ”

Trode pouted and said, "The British and French will begin to believe in the 'miracle' that a small team can create such a result, just like a chicken's blood." And our men will be alarmed that the enemy can take out a large position of ours with only one small team. In this way, the morale gap can be widened in an instant, and an effect far greater than the capture of an oasis of Suf. ”

"That's right!" Derek forcefully folded the stick into two and said, "And we are going to do the opposite, so that they can steal chickens and rice." ”

"It's easier said than done." Trode looked up at the sky and said, "Although they defeated Lamont at Supply Station 57 last time, it was because of the general trend after all, and their losses were not too serious. It makes me dream every night of the time when the brothers who retreated with me, who sat on the top of the truck."

"Anyway, how many people you rescued in the end." Derek shifted to a more positive topic.

"Seven." Trode whispered, "Lamont and they have shot almost everyone, dead or alive, so the survival rate is not ordinarily low. Two of them were brought back, but they didn't make it to the end. Four more were too badly injured to go back to battle. And the last one, the one we rescued from under the truck, was not too badly injured, but his leg was also left with a lifelong disability. ”

"And it does." Trode lowered his head and said, "The cry and tears he lay on the ground at that time have become indelible scars in my heart, and I don't know how to go back and face them if I don't take Lamont's head off here, whether it's on the ground or underground."

Derek looked at Trode, whose eyes were red, and patted him lightly on the shoulder, "Collect your anger, it will surprise our prey."
