Chapter Seventy-Three: Siege IV
A night of cloudy broth was sitting in front of Bagel with a slight steam! Bagel slowly picked up the broth, which was no longer too hot, and after making another thought battle with difficulty in his mind! Suddenly closing his eyes, Bagel drank it all in one go!
In the meantime, something soft went down the esophagus and into the stomach, and the stomach that had been hungry for a long time immediately had a burning sensation! Although every cell in Bagel's body is enjoying the pleasure that food brings to his body, there is always a lingering thought in the depths of Bagel's consciousness that forces himself not to vomit the contents of his stomach! That's the life-saving thing!
"Great! Ha ha! Sorge and Sands, who were hanging from their arms and their heads were bandaged, laughed happily! Sorge said happily: "Commander Bajer, if you drink this bowl of soup, there will be hope for our troops again!" Regardless of whether we are defeated in the end or not! In short, as long as you are here, we have not fallen! β
Bagel's skull-like wrinkles clung to the bones of his face moved several times! He was getting used to the taste in his mouth, and he was trying his best to suppress the thoughts in his heart!
Throwing down the bowl, he struggled to stand up on the table! He hadn't left this position for three days! He's been pretty much in one position since he sat in that day! When the guards brought the bowl of broth to him an hour ago, he was almost dying!
The desire to survive made him finally choose to defeat the bottom line of morality! Bagel silently drank the mouthful of broth that would haunt him for the rest of his life! And what he didn't know was that from this mouthful, there would never be an end, this was just the beginning of his painful life!
"Boom! Rumble! "The rumbling sound of cannon came quickly from the direction outside the city! It's been the third day that Bagel has been sitting here to hear such a cannon! He lowered his head and looked at his watch! It's still that exact time!
"Damn, damn the Chinese! Can't we stop for a while? Sorge angrily walked to the window and shook his fist at the distant cannon fire in protest! It seems that this qiΔ Chinese army can see it and will cease fire because of his protest!
Bagel raised his hand weakly, his head still groggy! But that bowl of broth had given him enough strength to think! He waved his hand at Sorge and said in a hoarse voice that he almost didn't recognize: "This is a ploy of the Huaxia people, using such tactics to consume our losses during the siege!" If we retreat, they will attack! If we continue to defend, we will bear endless casualties forever! With this kind of play, we will never have a chance to win! β
"What then?" Sorge spread out his hands, and in front of Bagel, he regained his submissive appearance, completely treating Bagel as a god! This had to make Jinsha, who was standing on the side, secretly give a thumbs up, and screamed admiration in his heart! No wonder Sorge was able to survive in that ** small country, and he was able to mix to the point where he is now! It has a lot to do with his rules of life!
Bagel's mind has slowly begun to recover! He turned around, looked at the front line that was far away but close at hand, and said with emotion on the windowsill: "There is no way, we can only wait!" Wait until the day when the Huaxia people attack, before we die, give them the last wounds! If only there were people alive in such a high-intensity war! β
Bajer suddenly turned around, looked at the two subordinates, and said in a deep voice: "Please tell Your Excellency Commander-in-Chief SΓΉ Babu, I have done my best!" This damn war is no longer beyond my control! β
Jinsha looked at Bajer with some sadness, this man who had just reached middle age had shocked him too much! Not only in his outstanding military command ability, but also in his qualities as a soldier! Jinsha felt that if Bajer's army was lost, there would be no hope for this army that came out of the desert!
"Can't we just rush out?" Tears slowly flowed down Jinsha's cheeks, and he was already a little careless! Shouted at Bajer, though he knew his idea was really stupid!
Bagel smiled slightly and looked at Jin Jin lightly: "Jin Sha, I know you want to use your troops and your own life to break out a passage for me!" I might have done it in the past, and I wouldn't hesitate to do it! Fighting! As long as you can win, you must pay a few means! How much more is it to exchange the lives of a few of you for the survival of the majority? β
"Unfortunately not anymore, since I saw the human bones piled up in the corner! Not anymore since I drank that broth that gave me nightmares for the rest of my life!
In the past few days, I have come to understand one thing, that is, the lives of soldiers are also very important! The Chinese people understand this, so they are now surrounding us! I don't understand this, that's why I'm stuck here because of my arrogance and arrogance! Every qiΔ is the will of heaven, it is the providence that I have set for myself a long time ago!
So Jinsha, don't say any more! The rest of my life is to live and die with you! I will use my remaining life to atone for the sins of those fallen warriors! β
Bajer's heartfelt words made Jinsha's tears gush out uncontrollably! He could imagine Bajer's mood at the moment! Bajer, who understands the meaning of life, if he can get out of here, he will be completely new, and he will no longer be the Bajel he used to be!
Sorge didn't speak, he had his own unique idea in his heart! He doesn't agree with Bajer's words, and I don't agree with him! Sorge just stood quietly to the side, looking at Bagel's emotion like a last word!
"Let's go!" Another loud cannon shot! The sound of the explosion had spread throughout the city, and the flames were already burning in the air, instantly obliterating Bajer's words!
"Let's go, let's go outside! The soldiers are still struggling to defend their positions, and I can't stay here anymore! Bagel picked up the belt from the table and tied it around his waist!
"Your Excellency, Commander!" Jinsha stopped in front of Bajer, glared wide-eyed and said, "Artillery fire is rumbling outside!" You can't take such a risk! Let's do what is there, anyway, the Huaxia people will not attack! β
Bagel put one hand on Jinsha's shoulder, and with his greatest strength, he slowly moved Jinsha to the side! He smiled and said, "A dignified commander, is it just shrunk in the command headquarters? Remember, I'm the god of war on the battlefield, Bajer! But not the coward Bajer, I'm going to show my warriors that their commander hasn't abandoned them! β
The artillery fire rumbled, and the artillery fire of the Huaxia army had changed its position several times, and it seemed that it was constantly showing the defenders inside and outside the city that their artillery fire was strong and luxurious!
And as the days are postponed, the artillery fire that comes regularly every day does not end at a regular time, but it is longer and longer, and the base number is more than one fire! The impact point has also changed from the initial intensive bombing to a carpet expansion bombing!
Almost every point in the forward position and the back line! Let all the defenders on the defensive feel the power and terrifying of the modern scientific and technological artillery of the Chinese army!
Today, it may be that the defense line of Bajer's army outside the city is only the height of a mound! After ten minutes of bombardment, the artillery fire had begun to spread into the city! Let the defenders who originally thought that the Huaxia people had withdrawn from the front line in order to protect the city from bombing the urban area tremble again!
The scorching cannonball made the most headache-inducing and tooth-aching whistling sound in the air, and the soldiers, who didn't know where their lives ended, could only run around with their heads in their hands! Their only hope is that the shells will be farther away from them!
Although everyone has a little bit of body lì! But the corpses of soldiers killed in battle could not solve the rations of tens of thousands of troops! Those who are already hungry and have only skin and bones left will have a full stomach at most, and the rest of the time can only be accompanied by fear and emptiness!
Bagel walked fearlessly in the midst of artillery fire! Sands and the rest of the guards cautiously followed him, while Sorge was a little away! Intentionally or unintentionally, he leaned against some buildings, which could have reduced his damage somewhat when the shells hit!
The presence of Bagel did not give any hope to the soldiers who escaped the fighting! Bagel is just one man, even though he holds the title of commander! But the soldiers who are so hungry that they don't even know their own mothers still take this commander seriously! Even if they ran past him, no one stopped to salute, they were all making the final struggle for life!
"Your Excellency, Commander! It's too dangerous here, let's go back! "A shell exploded not far away, and two buildings collapsed! Jin Sha hurriedly used his clothes to cover the smoke and dust for Bajer!
The beautiful city of Dihua is now a mess, full of starving soldiers and buildings shattered by artillery fire! Where is there a little bit of the reputation of the garden city and the most beautiful star in Western Xinjiang! Bajer stared blankly at the qiΔ in front of him, he finally believed that even if he appeared, it would be impossible to save the defeat!
"Let's go! Let's go back! Bagel raised his hand in despair, and turned away in disappointment! Jin Jin led the guards to hurriedly protect him! I'm afraid that a cannonball will come and solve his life!
The artillery fire is getting smaller! The Chinese artillery position, which had been bombarded for two hours, finally stopped! It was as if they had already finished all the ammunition that had been allotted to them today, and then they honestly ceased fire!
The streets of Dihua City are full of ruins and broken walls, and the losses caused by the Chinese artillery with powerful firepower to Dihua City are unprecedentedly huge! Almost half of the city was destroyed!
Sorge looked at Bajer's disappearing back, and then turned his head to look at the position of the Huaxia people in the distance, and a subtle smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "Bajer, you stupid, who do you think you are?" It seems that you haven't really realized how powerful you are, where the hell is! β
