Chapter Eighty-Nine: A Leak of Confusion

After about two minutes of walking forward, the troops came across the original blue-flag barracks, where a company of American soldiers was stationed, mainly rotating with the troops on the city walls.

Because most of the troops were transferred to the southern battlefield, the troops guarding the city gates became the hardest troops, and they changed their guards only once a day, every morning before the gates were opened.

In other words, a shift is required to stand for 24 hours.

Fortunately, the capital is now very stable, and with the entry of foreign soldiers, a large number of Boxers were either killed or driven out of the capital, so that they could sleep on the night without affecting the next day's arrangement.

Wang Sirui beckoned and signaled for two companies of troops to lurk here, and as soon as the guns rang out, they would immediately attack the barracks.

Two heavy machine guns were immediately arranged at the entrance and exit of the front barracks, and under the light of the torches, the two American soldiers standing guard were drowsy, not noticing that in the darkness not far away, hundreds of guns had been quietly aimed at them.

Wang Sirui did not check the deployment of the troops of these two companies, and in less than an hour, Wang Sirui was still a little nervous.

After leaving two companies behind, the rest of the soldiers began to move forward quickly, leaning against the corners on both sides of the road.

About half an hour later, the group came to Liulichang, where a company of British troops and two companies of Indian Asan were stationed.

After leaving a battalion of troops here, Wang Sirui continued to lead the troops towards other camps.

According to the information previously investigated, there are a total of seven barracks for foreign soldiers in the entire outer city, although there are only three serious barracks, but in order to ensure the security outside the city, the foreigners have worked hard here in the outer city.

And the strength of the troops in each barracks is at least one company or more, and there is even one battalion at most. Coupled with the defenders on the city wall, there were about 2,000 foreign soldiers in the entire outer city.

The two barracks in front of them were going well, which also made many people breathe a sigh of relief.

However, the good times did not last long, and a battalion of troops was just left to besiege the British army in the Liuli Factory. When Wang Sirui and the rest of the troops just walked near the Fire God Temple, they happened to be bumped into by a team of patrolling foreign soldiers.

A group of A-San soldiers walked aimlessly through the streets, led by a British officer, who was just one of many night watch soldiers in the capital.

As long as it was during the curfew, everyone who showed up on the streets, they would take them back to the camp and torture them.

If you're lucky, maybe after your family takes out some of your belongings, you'll be able to go back alive with bruises. And if the family can't get their belongings, they can only collect the body for him.

It's always boring to have a night watch. Most people find a place to rest after the first half of the night and then patrol every once in a while, and nothing happens.

"Huh? Sir, there seems to be someone there! "A San soldier at the forefront of the team, when he was drowsy, suddenly saw a group of figures flashing in front of him, and hurriedly reported.

"Where's the people?" The British officer immediately sobered up and asked the San.

Ah San stretched out his hand and pointed, but the figure he had seen earlier was gone.

The British officer looked at it carefully for a while, but did not notice anything unusual.

"You, go over and have a look!" The British officer did not lose his temper in a hurry, but pointed to the soldier who had reported earlier.

Because he knew very well that they were in the light, with the light of torches, and it was very difficult to see the rest of the world in such a situation.

"Huh? Sir, am I going alone? Ah San hesitated.

"Do you want me to come with you? Or do they have someone else who would like to go with you? The British officer scolded a little angrily, and then kicked him in the ass fiercely, and scolded: "Hurry up, or see how I clean you up." ”

Ah San soldier regretted it in his heart, if he had known that he had gone to see the situation alone, it would have been better to pretend not to see it.

You know, what he saw just now was a group of figures, not just one or two.

It's just that under the coercion of the British officers, Ah San soldiers can't help but go over to check. In the end, the Ah San soldier could only hold the torch in one hand and push the bullet into the chamber with the other, and slowly walked towards the place where he had found the abnormality before.

And the pair of Ah San soldiers in the back, their eyes were also wide open, staring at the place where the Ah San soldier passed.

Of course, as the product of the British army's hard work, the minimum tactical literacy of the Asan soldiers still exists.

At the same time that the soldier left the group, everyone quickly loaded the bullet and aimed it in that direction, and at the slightest movement, they would immediately send the bullet to the other party.

However, a few mischievous people found such days too boring, so they took the opportunity to aim their guns at their companions.

Anyway, being idle is idle, it's better to practice your aiming, and besides, you won't really shoot.

"My lord, the foreign soldiers are coming towards us, what should we do?" Wu Zixuan asked a little nervously.

'Cold salad! Wang Sirui secretly responded in his heart.

It's too unlucky to be ****** today, and I've gone so far that this patrol team of less than twenty people has been discovered.

And it seems that the other party is not sure, otherwise he would not have sent only one person to check.

Sometimes, it is difficult to complete a night raid mission with a large army as planned, especially now.

As long as they dare to make any changes, the other party will know that there is indeed someone here.

But if they don't move, sooner or later the other party will find them again. I have to admit that at some point, large forces are indeed not as useful as small forces. But more often than not, there is no way for small forces to replace the role of large forces.

"Prepare for battle!" Although there were only two dozen people on the other side, Wang Sirui still gave the order to fight.

Although it's a pity, it's a pity, but there is no way, the enemy finds out, and the other party has torches, if you are in close combat, Wang Sirui is not sure that the other party will not shoot.

Therefore, the only way at the moment is to exchange fire with the other party, and then change the sneak attack to a strong attack.

'Smack......'

'Tom! ’

Suddenly there was a gunshot from behind, and Ah San, who was holding a torch, was suddenly shot and fell to the ground. This scene surprised many people.

And Ah San, the person who shot him, suddenly rolled his eyes, trembled uncontrollably, and at the same time prayed secretly in his heart, but his prayer had no effect.

"Bastard......" the British officer roared angrily at the group, because at night, he could easily analyze the direction of the bullet from the trajectory.

And the bullet that hit that Ah San earlier came from their side.

And the British officers also knew that Ah San had a lot of bad habits, and it was not impossible for something like this to happen. But this time it hit his own people accurately, which made the British officers angry.

It's just that before the British officer had time to be angry, countless bullets came from the opposite side.

Hundreds of guns were aimed at the less than twenty men, and they didn't even have to aim, they just needed to aim their guns at the range of the fire, and then pull the trigger together.

After a burst of gunshots, including the British officer, they were all lying in a pool of blood, and the torches in their hands even ignited their clothes.
