The momentum of the "Free Army of England" did not ease in any way, but began to spread throughout Southampton.

The Canadians led by Frank soon discovered that something was wrong when they showed up in Southampton.

They were attacked at every turn, and the guerrillas used their familiarity with the local terrain and the support of the population to constantly attack these outsiders. What was supposed to be an easy battle turned into a difficult one. In less than half an hour, Frank lost more than 20 men.

Especially after the seizure of the police station, the "Free Army" had a large number of weapons and ample ammunition, and they even had two old-fashioned mortars, which was a real headache for the Canadians.

Moreover, the bigger problem stems from the support of the locals in Southampton for the "Free Army". They fanatically and unjustifiably sided with the "Free Army" and resolutely provided them with all the necessary help. They even joined in the direct attacks on the Canadians.

The gunfire in Southampton continued throughout the night, and the two sides actually started street fighting in advance.

Those guerrillas who did not have much experience in fighting with the professional army, after going through actual combat exercises, accumulated a lot of experience, and they gradually stopped being afraid of such battlefields, and gradually became more and more confident. They tend to occupy a house in a very advantageous position, where they are constantly fighting the enemy, and when they can no longer hold on, they will calmly withdraw from the other direction.

Canadians who have worked so hard to occupy that building will find that they have nothing to gain here.

Frank and his men at this time. Completely blind. They didn't know where the direction of the main attack should be, and they didn't know when the battle would end. They can't find people who are willing to lead their way, they can't find locals who are willing to help them. And those damned partisans. But they can attack them anywhere, anytime, anywhere.

Frank was now beginning to feel that it might be a huge mistake to send Canadians to suppress the guerrillas. But honestly, what else can Dontanner do? Bacchus's troops were also under attack, and the only troops that could be drawn were the Canadians.

These guerrillas are a headache.

Franks organized a large force to launch a fierce attack on the important stronghold of Southampton Television Station, where the guerrillas, with sufficient ammunition, held out for a full hour before evacuating. The Canadians have worked hard to occupy this place. However, as soon as their main force left, the guerrillas appeared like ghosts. The weak defenders were under the onslaught of the partisans. and was soon forced to evacuate with the help of the British within the television station, which once again fell into the hands of the partisans.

And Anno, who had just experienced the feat of breaking into the police station alone, once again made a shocking move. In a situation where Canadians could make a comeback at any moment. Anno decided to give him an exclusive interview with Michael on television, a well-known Southampton journalist.

He is not afraid of anything, even if he falls into the hands of government troops, even if he is killed by those government troops, if he can fully express his ideals. If only all the British could be fully awakened. Then all your adventures will be worth it......

．．．．．．

"Mr. Anno, each of us knows that you are a brave fighter, and we also know that you were only a secondary school teacher before forming the 'Free Army of England', what prompted you to embark on such a path?"

In the midst of the fire outside, Michael asked his first question.

"The Queen's Majesty's Exile and the Fall of England." Anno replied very quickly, even though it was an interview without any outline: "In exile under Her Majesty the Queen, the illegitimate Fenton government took control of power in England. And after the invasion of the Americans, I thought that the land I loved so much had fallen. This is the land of England. It must be governed by the English, and Her Majesty's throne is recognized by the Constitution and of all Britons, and no one has the power to compel the Queen to leave the land which she loves as much as she loves without a referendum of all the people of England...... I was not the only one who walked this path, countless honest Englishmen have made the same choice as me. ”

"I admire your bravery." Michael said, "There is a legend that you have the support of some powerful force, is that true? ”

"I have the support of God and the Queen." Anno appeared very tactful in answering this question: "Of course, I also have the support of all the upright Englishmen. And now, I need more support to push us to new victories. ”

There was a "boom" explosion outside. Michael observed Anno for a moment, but there was no fear on the face of the leader of the guerrillas: "Let's make an assumption that you have already won, so what are you going to do with those Americans and Canadians?" ”

"That's the decision Her Majesty should make." Anno blurted out, "But if I had to choose, I would drive them all away." I wouldn't hurt them, and an upright Englishman wouldn't do such a thing, unless the Americans or Canadians were still doing things that were doing things that were harmful to England. ”

Michael nodded: "As far as I know, most of Southampton has joined in your support. Do you have anything to say to the Englishmen who are fighting with you, or who are still watching? ”

"I thank everyone for their support for me, and you will make us determined to win." Ano thought about it for a moment: "As for those who have not yet joined us, I would like to express my gratitude as well, at least they did not stand against us, at least they did not help my enemies. Fellow citizens of England, there is nothing to hesitate, Her Majesty's army and our true allies are now just outside Southampton, and the Goddess of Victory is already on our side. Our blood can boil at this time...... You have many options to hide in your own homes and wait for the war to end...... You can be a wall-to-wall plant. Whoever sees the upper hand will fall to whose side...... You may even choose to help our enemies slaughter your own people...... Of course, you have the last option, which is to fight with us firmly against the invaders......"

Speaking of this, he paused and continued: "Fight with us. You will bleed and even die, but I am sure that when the day comes when we will be victorious, your families will be immensely proud of you. They would point to a certain headstone in the cemetery and proudly say, 'Behold, this is our father.' He once shed the last drop of blood for the freedom of this city.' When Her Majesty's banner flew in every city of England, they would proudly say, 'Look! On this banner there is the glory of our father'. Citizens of England in Southampton, I think that's what every one of us really in England should do. That's the choice every one of us in true England should make! ”

Petro hurried in. Whispered something in Anno's ear.

In fact, there is no need to ask, Michael also knows what happened: "Mr. Anno, I admire your bravery and composure, I think the Canadians have renewed their attack on the television station, so we can end this interview, I don't want to be said after the victory, look, this is the person who hurt Mr. Anno!" ”

A smile appeared on Anno's face. He liked Michael's humor: "Thank you for being able to give me this opportunity, I think if there was no war." I'm never going to get a chance to be on TV in my life. I would also like to say a word to all Southampton citizens, 'Destiny is in your own hands many times, and the goddess of fate will not smile at you for your cowardice'......"

The interview with Anno soon spread throughout Southampton, and the impact was enormous. Especially those who are still hesitant to wait and see, many of them gave up their inner selfishness and cowardice because of Anno's speech, and bravely joined the ranks of the "Free Army".

"Fate is in your own hands many times, and the goddess of fate will not smile at you because of your cowardice."

This sentence spoken by Anno has been deeply engraved in the hearts of countless Britons......

Frank's pressure suddenly increased, and he was horrified to find that he now had to face the resistance of the whole of Southampton. The English who appeared on the streets of the city, using old-fashioned weapons, were constantly attacking the enemy. Perhaps old and dilapidated weapons don't do much damage to Canadians, but it's the awakening that is most frightening.

And these Englishmen showed enough intelligence in battle that they would have chosen to gather together and then suddenly attack the lone Canadian soldiers, killing their enemies and seizing their weapons.

In a café that is ubiquitous in Southampton, two Canadian soldiers walk in.

Under constant bombardment by the Axis Air Forces, the café was one of the few that remained intact, and it was still open despite the fierce fighting.

The two Canadian soldiers were already very tired, and they needed to have a cup of coffee and a good rest. The owner and waiters of this café were very welcoming, and the owner even brought coffee to the Canadians himself.

Not every Southamptonian is so opposed to the ...... of Canadians and Americans The two Canadian soldiers felt they had found some comfort......

They sipped their delicious coffee and discussed the course of the war, not forgetting to curse the damned guerrillas. But as they drank, they felt their eyelids grow heavy, and they tried to sober up, but they couldn't do anything about it. Unable to support them any longer, they fell headlong on the table in front of them and fell asleep.

The smile on the boss's face suddenly disappeared, and he calmly came to the Canadian soldiers, took their weapons, and then handed one of the guns to his clerk: "Senna, fight or humiliate to live." ”

Senna took the gun, and could tell that his hand was shaking. He struggled to raise his gun, closed his eyes and fired a shot at the Canadian. Probably too nervous. A shot at such a close range actually missed the target.

"Don't forget Mr. Anno's words, 'Fate is in your own hands many times, and the goddess of fate will not smile at you because of your cowardice,'......" the boss behaved much more calmly. He raised his gun and pulled the trigger twice without hesitation.

When he left the café, he was a little reluctant, after all, he had spent many years here. But nothing, even if the café was destroyed at its worst, its owner had fought for the land he loved.

Just like every Englishman who is awakening and bravely joining the battle......

．．．．．．

The situation is becoming more and more unfavorable for Americans and Canadians, after Anno's speech. The whole of Southampton had been turned into a huge battlefield in advance, and almost all the British here had joined the revolt. Within hours, the Canadian 52nd Infantry Division, commanded by Frank, had suffered more than 300 casualties.

This annoyed and frustrated Frank. Before the real battle with the Axis army began, he had lost so many men, and the turmoil did not appear to have subsided at all, but intensified. Once dawn. If the Axis forces re-offensive. This will cause huge problems for defensive operations.

The rebels must be dealt with more forcefully and told who is the real master!

More than 30 captured Britons were brought to Frank, who stared at them coldly, and then said almost word by word: "Tell me, where is the headquarters of the Free Army?" Where are your companions? ”

No one answered his questions, not a single one.

"Tell me, tell me!" Frank was almost there ranting: "Or I'll shoot every single one of you!" ”

Finally, someone spoke again: "Do you want to ask where the headquarters of the Free Army is?" Do you want to know where Mr. Daanno is? I can answer you. The headquarters of the Free Army is here, and every one of us is Mr. Anno! ”

The answer was very calm and calm. But that made Frank gasp. He could not see the slightest fear on the face of this Englishman. Frank, however, felt scared. It was as if they had been cursed by some kind of spell, and they had completely forgotten their lives and deaths.

No, such a situation must be resolutely and thoroughly controlled......

He waved his hand, and more than a dozen soldiers raised their guns, and Frank said coldly: "I'll give you one last chance to tell me everything you know." Otherwise, I will order my soldiers to shoot at you in the name of quelling the rebellion! ”

The Englishman who spoke first smiled contemptuously...... Nothing, really nothing, as Mr. Anno said, even if they die, their descendants will always remember them with admiration and pride.

"Fate is in your own hands many times, and the goddess of fate will not smile at you because of your cowardice"! He said it softly.

"Fate is in your own hands many times, and the goddess of fate will not smile at you because of your cowardice"! Every Englishman said something like this at gunpoint.

Frank gave the order to shoot almost tremblingly...... The sense of foreboding in his heart was rising sharply, and the Allies could no longer control the city......

．．．．．．

"The enemy is starting to be confused, and this is the only way they can hide the chaos in their hearts." Looking at the corpses of the British, Wang Weiyi said calmly: "From now on, Southampton will become a city of anger!" ”

City of Rage – Southampton!

Anno's whole body trembled with anger and sadness. These corpses on the ground are their own compatriots, who fought for freedom, but now, they have been brutally slaughtered. Revenge, revenge! The fury of revenge filled Anno's entire body!

Michael's camera faithfully captures all of this, and although his anger is exactly the same as Anno's, he must control himself and fulfill his responsibilities as a journalist. He was going to tell all the British what the brutal invaders had done!

"Anno, keep your cool." Wang Weiyi's voice was still so calm: "This will make all people completely cut off the slightest illusion of the last one, they will know that their choice is correct, and they will know that they must fight the most resolutely to ensure their life and freedom." Even those British who were still serving the invaders were shaken by the brutality of the massacre. ”

"Yes, Mr. Moyol, as you say, Southampton, from now on, will be a city of rage!" Anno struggled to control his emotions: "As long as we have one person left, the fight will never stop!" ”

Forever - as long as there is one person alive, the fight will never stop!

"Fate is in your own hands many times, and the goddess of fate will not smile at you because of your cowardice"! Anno's words are beginning to be confirmed.

The rain began to fall, mixed with the blood on the ground, and sorrow flowed in Southampton.

The City of Rage will erupt in her most powerful cry at this moment! (To be continued......)
