Liang Hong squatted under the steps of the freight platform, his pistol aimed at the narrow crack of the warehouse door, exposing only his hands and a short gun, and pulled the trigger. The pen, fun, and pavilion www.biquge.infoC96 has semi-automatic firepower, which is equivalent to three times the rate of fire of a bolt-action rifle. Although it was indeed difficult to accurately shoot through the cracks in the door during the firefight, he hoped that this would suppress the other side to a certain extent and reduce the casualties of his brothers.

Liang Hong's strategy had a certain effect, the shooting easily drew hatred, the fire began to concentrate on him, the bullets flew overhead with a whistling overhead, and even the short guns that stretched out were hit by the bullets and almost flew out of their hands.

At about six o'clock in the evening, Joshua was eating in the town next to the railway station in the eastern suburbs. Irish taverna with good taste and cheap prices. Several officers of the Bureau of Investigation were eating feverishly when an earth-shattering noise rang out from the east, and the entire restaurant shook.

What happened? Joshua put down her knife and fork and looked out the window to the east. The strict Puritans were not drinkers, so he was now in a clear mind, and then when he heard the crackling sound of the east side, he immediately realized that he was shooting.

"Let's go, something might have happened at the station."

He urged his subordinates to hope that the arms would be fine, and now he was most worried about the explosion of the arsenal just now. If something happens to him here, it may affect his father's reputation. Hurrying out of the restaurant, Joshua was the first to notice that the bell tower at the Dongjiao train station was missing. No wonder I didn't hear the defenders' machine-gun counterattack, it seems that this time the movement was not small. The few people guarding the arms depot are the elite of the Special Operations Team of the Investigation Bureau, hoping to withstand it. Joshua prayed in his heart that the city would receive the news and send reinforcements immediately.

However, he did not know that it was impossible for Pretoria to receive the news in a short time. At 6:30 a.m., on the telegraph poles around the city, repairmen dressed in the clothes of the Transvaal Telegraph Company appeared. Ostensibly, they were repairing electrical circuits, but by the time they got off the poles, the city's communications with the outside world were almost completely cut off. The telegraph line seems to be intact, but the one on one of the poles was cut and re-attached, and it cannot be found without a closer look. The sun is about to set, and the line maintenance may have to wait until tomorrow.

The Pretoria Telegraph Building, diagonally across from the Presidential Palace, is the city's telecommunications centre, from which the cable telegraph and city telephone are relayed. The building was open late into the night, when it was getting dark and there were very few people taking the telegram. At the same 6:30 a.m., a white man walked out of the bathroom, saw that there was no one around, and quickly pasted a large piece of paper with the Dutch word "under repair" on the bathroom door. Dodge back inside, light the fuse in the most secret corner, and immediately run out and lock the bathroom door.

The spy walked out of the telegraph building quickly, and walked all the way, and as soon as he turned the street, he heard a loud bang behind him, and when he turned around, he saw that the telegraph building had collapsed more than half. At this moment, a fire appeared in the direction of the south of the city, which was the direction of the flour mill, and he knew that his companion had also succeeded.

The battle in front of the warehouse door continued, and after Liang Hong attracted firepower, the guards also rushed to the freight platform. Nearly 100 rifles opened fire together, aiming at the narrow crack of the door more than ten meters away, and the iron gate was hit so that sparks flew and many bullet holes were drilled. Taking advantage of the opportunity to be suppressed inside, Liang Hong quickly slipped in the opposite direction of the crack in the door.

Raising their hands, their own people temporarily stopped shooting. As soon as the gunfire stopped, he grabbed the door from the outside and slammed it open.

More intense fire erupted again, and the heavy fire of gunfire came in, and the Boers lost their cover, and the Boers were knocked to the ground.

The warehouse where the munitions were stored was finally opened, and the wooden boxes were pried open, and the rifles and bullets wrapped in oiled paper smelled of butter. These people are no longer defenseless lambs, Liang Hong finally breathed a sigh of relief, and the next thing is to think about how to withdraw people safely. Gunfire was fierce on the west side of the train station, which was the barracks of the station defenders, and a special detachment was responsible for blocking it. There are too few people under his command who can conduct special operations, and there are too many things to do, so according to the plan, they can only send people to contain the dozens of defenders in the barracks.

At the entrance of the warehouse, the soldiers who got off the train had already begun to line up according to the formation, one by one to receive weapons, one rifle and hundreds of ammunition per person.

"Zhou Zirong, immediately take your people to the barracks for reinforcements."

Liang Hong recognized that the first to organize his men to come down to receive weapons was Zhou Zirong's company, this person is still relatively flexible, he has an impression. The company next in line is Wu Peifu, who can quickly organize his subordinates, which is an ability in itself, and the celebrities in history are by no means in vain.

"Wu Peifu, take your people to the road leading to the north to establish a position, and you must hold on until the follow-up team passes."

This is the most urgent task, and handing it over to Wu Peifu will make him feel more at ease.

The so-called barracks of the railway station are nothing more than small courtyards of a few bungalows. Walls can provide a shield in times of need, but sometimes they can also be a barrier, as is the case now.

There were several corpses lying at the gate of the courtyard, which were shot and killed in an attempt to rush out of the courtyard. The four special forces members took cover one after another, and the fast-firing Lee Enfield rifles, coupled with the deadly dummmy bullets, firmly blocked the entire courtyard and even the nearby road. The thirty or forty defenders in the courtyard, after hearing the explosion, immediately rushed to the scene, but they did not expect to be blocked at the door. After all, it was a well-trained soldier, and after the initial panic, he began to climb out of the back wall in an orderly manner, going around to the front to attack the blockers.

As a result, the pressure on the special forces responsible for blocking suddenly increased. The opponent has a large number of men and a high quality of individual soldiers, and gradually occupies the offensive. Fortunately, at this time, Spy Zero-3 led the personnel who completed the blowing up of the bell tower back, and finally formed a stalemate situation for the time being.

Joshua and his gang followed the sound of gunfire, and from a distance, it was clear that it was an unknown gunman, who was engaged in a shootout with the defenders, so they attacked from the flank. They are all armed with short guns, which have a short range and low lethality, but these people have rich combat experience, which makes up for their weaknesses to a certain extent.

Bang, Joshua fired a shot in front of him. The British Webley pistol was fatally wounded at close range, and immediately after the shot, he dodged behind the wall. The opponent was small in number, but he was well armed and well-trained, which surprised him. The addition of these people did not fundamentally overwhelm the opponent, and this group of people was by no means ordinary gunmen. Thinking about the big cases that happened in the surrounding area a few months ago, Joshua had an ominous premonition in his heart, maybe they also ran into it this time.

On the other side, Spy Zero-3 was also secretly complaining, it was hard enough to fight against more than 30 Boer regular army soldiers, but now a group of people came to attack from the side. Although these people's attack power is not very strong, what he is most worried about is that this group of people is just a new reinforcement, if there is a steady stream of reinforcements behind, it will be terrible. But fortunately, in fact, the reinforcements who arrived first were on his side.

Seeing the sudden increase in enemy firepower, Joshua immediately understood that it was the enemy who had come to reinforcements. They all use rifles, which means that the army is attacking, and although he can't think of who the enemy is, he understands that the matter is extremely serious.

"Julian, hurry up and run back to the city to report, just say that the eastern suburbs railway station has encountered a powerful armed attack, and the city should send reinforcements immediately."

He called one of his men to command.
