"Major, I have just reconnoitred, there are many French, and we have no way of knowing if Colonel Thomas is still alive."

Wang Weiyi frowned slightly, but said very firmly: "According to the previous discussion, all three tanks were put into battle, and the rest of the infantry followed closely to tear apart the French defense line in the shortest time." ”

"Major, I've brought something." Ludwig said suddenly, and then asked his men to bring something:

God, what is this?

It was a blood-red banner, a huge white skeleton, located in the middle of the banner, staring at the world realm in front of it with its empty and cold eyes!

- Skeleton Banner!

"Major, you are my idol! No, you are the idol of all German soldiers! Ludwig's eyes flashed with fanaticism: "I hope this banner will inspire all of us to move forward!" ”

Wang Weiyi never imagined that he could have such a fanatical following. He looked at Ludwig and saw a mad fire in the lieutenant's eyes, and he believed that he would not hesitate to kill him now.

In the past, "Skeleton Baron" was just a joking name for Wang Weiyi by Eleana and Richthofen, but with the Battle of Reims and the appearance of this skeleton battle flag, the name "Skeleton Baron" will soon become extremely loud on the battlefield!

Gazing at this battle flag. Even those who used to have some fear in their hearts have become extremely determined.

Wang Weiyi didn't hesitate any longer, took the skeleton battle flag, and planted it on his tank. The national flag is waving in the wind. It seems to inspire the determination of every soldier:

All for Germany!

"Let's get started," Wang Weiyi said in a calm tone

Tank start. All the officers commanding the infantry made an incomparably loud voice:

"Ernst. In the name of Bream, forward! ”

It's dawn.

The German soldiers were tired and curled up in makeshift trenches, loneliness, fear, and despair attacked and tormented them all the time.

After fighting after battle, surviving attack after attack, none of them had the confidence to be able to break out of the encirclement.

Maybe soon every single one of them will die here

Bullets are running out, and grenades are almost empty. The heavy machine gun was now completely furnished, and the last bullet had been fired.

Rifles with bayonets and sharpened sapper shovels were placed within easy reach. When the enemy begins a new attack. That is when the German soldiers here are facing death.

"Major Wolfe, are you ready?"

"Yes, I'm ready. Colonel Thomas. ”

Colonel Thomas looked around, there were corpses everywhere, seriously wounded. There weren't many of his men left to continue fighting.

"Wounded soldiers." Colonel Thomas raised his voice: "Now, I order you to raise the white flag and get out of here. Go to the French. ”

The eyes of the wounded fell on Colonel Thomas. Did the colonel even want them to surrender?

"You have lost your combat effectiveness, there is no need to stay here." Colonel Thomas's expression was very serious: "I ask you all to live until the end of the war." I hope that when you return to Germany alive, you will be able to tell your family, Silvester. Colonel Thomas used to fight with you here! ”

"Colonel, the soldiers of Germany refuse to accept the humiliating surrender!" One of the wounded replied loudly to his colonel.

"Colonel, the soldiers of Germany refuse to accept the humiliating surrender!" This is how each soldier replied to his colonel.

Major Wolf straightened his chest: "Colonel, if you insist that we surrender. That's a shame that we can't wash away for the rest of our lives. If we die here, we'll be honored to have been with Sylvestre. Colonel Thomas fought side by side! ”

Sylvestre. Colonel Thomas watched his soldiers silently. He now knows the truth. No matter how much they tried to persuade them, these soldiers would not leave here

He heard the whistle of the assembly coming from the opposite side, and Colonel Thomas smiled slightly, "I thank you for your courage. Germany will remember our exploits. Now, soldiers, fight. ”

- Now, soldiers, fight!

There are no more illusions. Those soldiers who were still able to move entered their combat positions, staring at the opposite position, preparing for the final battle.

No one wants to escape, and no one wants to surrender.

People are often so strange, a timid and cowardly person always thinks that he will be scared to pee his pants when he goes to the battlefield, but once he really goes to the battlefield, he is accompanied by some people who are not afraid of death, and the fear in his heart will be dispelled unconsciously.

He will think of himself as someone like them

It was only when the bullet pierced their hearts, and the moment before he died, that he thought with some regret that if I were a coward, maybe I wouldn't have to die, but by this time he had become a hero

Not everyone of these German soldiers who decided to fight to the death with Colonel Thomas was so brave, but only one brave and fearless man showed their courage and inspired their companions, and all of them felt that death was not such a terrible thing

From this point of view, Sylvestre. Colonel Thomas and Ernst. Major Braham has many similarities:

They conquered his men with their mercy and courage

The French began to attack, and at a glance there were patches of them.

The Germans lost the support of their heavy machine guns on their positions. Rifle ammunition has also become very limited, grenades are almost completely empty, and the only ones that can support them are bayonets and sapper shovels.

This will be the last battle this position will face

Colonel Thomas lit his pipe. Taking a few deep breaths, he exhaled a puff of smoke as the French army got closer and closer: "Boys, let's get started." ”

Shots rang out

The battle continued to rage, with bullets flying in the air and people screaming and falling. Screams mingled with gunshots ringing in every ear

Suddenly, the gunfire on the German positions stopped

"Colonel. We run out of bullets. ”

Colonel Thomas nodded: "Wolfe, I'll leave it to you." ”

"It is my pleasure, Colonel." Major Wolf pulled out a whistle. Blow hard. The German soldiers lying in the trenches loaded their bayonets, tightened their grip on their sapper shovels, and stood up one after another.

"Keep the formation, keep the formation!"

"Don't panic. Don't go back – stay in formation! ”

"Formation Hold - Prepare for Battle!"

The rhythmic shouts of the officers were accompanied by the sound of the whistle.

Colonel Thomas smiled slightly. It is really the greatest luck in my life to have such a soldier. Soon, all of them will die here, but that doesn't matter anymore

The dense French army is pressing in little by little

"Farewell, Wolf."

"Farewell, Colonel."

After Wolf finished speaking, he raised the telescope, and suddenly, his hands trembled

"What's wrong, Wolf?" Colonel Thomas discovers an anomaly in his subordinates.

Oddly enough. Wolf didn't answer the colonel, and his whole body seemed to stay there. This made the strange Colonel Thomas can't help but raise the binoculars

The rear flank of the French army seemed to be somewhat shaken.

"Boom-boom-" There was a dull sound, not so clearly audible, but it seemed to be coming from the French ass

There was really a commotion in the rear flank of the French army.

Then, the shadow of the tank gradually appeared in the telescope, and yes, it was really a tank!

One, two, three, three tanks appeared on the battlefield!

The muzzles of the guns were constantly firing shells, which exploded in the French formation. The machine guns on the tanks roared desperately, and the dense rain of bullets fired horribly at every enemy they could see!

Then some soldiers appeared behind the tank. Supported by tank fire, they began to slowly approach the French.

What's that? Colonel Thomas put down his binoculars and rubbed his eyes, wondering if he had seen it wrong. Only then did he raise the telescope again

Hell, is that a tank for the British? Why do you want to shoot at your allies?

When the tank first appeared on the battlefield and caused panic in the German army, the German top brass obtained a captured British tank and introduced the new war machine on the battlefield to the senior generals in great detail.

Colonel Thomas was one of them, and he could even quickly tell that it was the British "Mark Male Tank", armed with two short-barreled guns and four machine guns!

What puzzles Colonel Thomas is why the British tanks are here? For what will fire on the French?

Are they all crazy?

Not only Colonel Thomas and Major Wolff, but every German soldier in the position began to notice this.

The French soldiers became panicked, first on the flanks, and then on the front of them, and told the gods what the hell was going on behind their ass!

Another shell flew out of the tank and exploded precisely among the French soldiers, which also caused even more confusion among the French.

"Colonel, look what that is!" Major Wolf suddenly shouted loudly: "That's a flag, a battle flag!" ”

Yes, Colonel Thomas also saw that on the tank that rushed to the front fluttered a blood-red background with a skull mark:

Skeleton Battle Banner!

In the whole of Germany, there was only one man worthy of such a battle flag:

Skeleton Baron:

- Ernst. Alexon. Feng. Brahm! (To be continued.) )
