Chapter Eighty-Eight: The Bloody Battle of Seluda (9)

After a day's offensive, the positions in the town of Celuda were lost one after another, and even to the end, even the commanders of the 2nd Division did not know where their men were. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoThe whole town of Seluda is in chaos, and fighting is going on everywhere.

It wasn't until late at night that the firefighting in the town gradually subsided.

In an inconspicuous dilapidated building, there was a crowd of figures, and seven or eight heads poked out of the building. The fat man and the others had already put their guns behind their backs, and any gunshot that came out would attract a large number of imperial troops. Especially at night, the traces of the firefight are even more obvious.

A five-man patrol walked towards the building, the glow of the flashlight sweeping back and forth in all directions. The crowd retracted their heads, and the light swept over their heads.

The fat man patted the few people next to him, made a gesture, and everyone took out daggers from their bodies one after another. Led by the fat man, several people sneaked out of the building lightly.

The speed of the patrol is not fast, it is far from the center of the town, and the resistance of the Federation defenders in the town is stronger the further you go. Several patrols were already searching the remnants of the Confederacy during the night. The number of these patrols is not large, so the fat man has a plan to start.

Leaving one person to let the wind out, the fat man led the rest of the people to wait on the path that the patrol must pass.

The patrol walked through the rubble, and because the fat man and the others were hidden, several Imperial soldiers did not notice anything unusual. Just as they walked in front of the fat man, at the sound of an order, everyone raised their daggers and rushed forward.

Five Imperial soldiers were ambushed without any notice. The person in the lead was directly cut by the fat man's throat, and everyone's actions were successful, but in the end there was a situation.

The last Imperial soldier was not injured, he had just raised his gun and was about to fire a warning shot, when a dagger slashed into the wrist of the raised gun with a piercing cold light. The gun fell to the ground, and the soldier was killed with a single sword.

"Coo~~" A bird call came from inside the broken building.

"Clean up the scene!" The fat man grabbed the corpse under his feet and dragged it into the ruins, and the rest of the people hurriedly followed the fat man's example and dragged all the things that fell on the road into the ruined building.

Sure enough, the two Imperial patrols met at this intersection. They looked around and continued their patrols. The Imperial Patrol is very tightly arranged, and if the Fat Man moves any more slowly, he may be surrounded by several Imperial Patrols.

The five corpses were put away, and the crowd quickly replenished ammunition. In the fat man's opinion, such a patrol is obviously here to send ammunition supplies for himself and others, and it will be difficult to encounter a lack of ammunition in the future.

"Battalion commander, why doesn't this man have any food on him?" One soldier whispered.

"yes, not in this man."

"Mine too!"

Coincidentally, the five corpses had no food at all, except for a small amount of ammunition, which made everyone wonder. Almost every soldier would carry some food with them in case of emergency, but the situation of these five Imperial soldiers made it clear to everyone that the Imperial side was targeting themselves with food.

The fat man leaned against the broken wall in a decadent manner, "It seems that we can no longer get food from the enemy soldiers, and these patrols have a pitiful lack of bullets. ”

"How much food do you have left?" The fat man asked.

Sure enough, as expected by the fat man, the food left over from everyone's body was only enough for one meal, and some people even ran out of food.

"Let's get out of here first, let's change places and wait until dawn to see how things go." A few people quickly disappeared into the ruins and walls in the dark night.

It wasn't until dawn the next day that the bodies of the five Imperial soldiers were found.

DeWitt smoked his cigar leisurely, and now the battle in the town of Seluda was moving in the direction he had expected, and the Imperial army's offensive was surprisingly smooth.

"My lord, why don't we focus our attack on the federal forces in Targanne?" The adjutant on the side saw that DeWitt was in a good mood and asked respectfully.

"Talgan Forest?" DeWitt flicked his cigarette ash, "Talgan's Federation army is numbering in the thousands, and it occupies a favorable terrain, even if we go all out, it will be difficult to take it in a few days. ”

With that, Devitt took a deep breath of his cigar, "I don't know how Augustin's idiot got this Union army into the mountains." ”

DeWitt was in a good mood because of a message from the gendarmerie. According to credible information, Calvin, commander of the 2nd Federal Division, was in the town of Seluda and did not withdraw with the bulk of the force into Talgan. And capturing Calvin alive is the result he ultimately wants.

Snuffing out the cigar, DeWitt's eyes flashed with an imperceptible cold light.

Altona Star, command of Army Group North of the Federation.

A new round of operational deployment has been distributed, and various grassroots combat units are already preparing for tomorrow's battle. Taking advantage of the night, Cheng Yi personally came to the frontline to inspect the front-line officers and soldiers at the grassroots level. To his relief, all the soldiers looked at him with high emotions, and the blood buried deep in everyone's hearts when they saw Cheng Yi was stimulated.

Cheng Yi sighed that tomorrow will be another tough battle to fight. In front of him was now a strong military fortress, which, according to intelligence, contained at least one army group. At the same time, Army Group South also encountered an Imperial military fortress blocking its path.

The advance of both army groups was blocked by the Rovitha Imperial military fortress at the same time, and seeing that crossing this fortress would allow the Federation army to drive straight in, and there would be no more obstacles to their arrival in Seluda.

Cheng Yi solemnly saluted all the front-line officers and soldiers, there may be great sacrifices in tomorrow's battle, but looking at these federal soldiers who are still alive in front of him, Cheng Yi is sincerely proud of these soldiers.

Leng Xiling stood behind Cheng Yi, and she, who was also dressed in military uniform, saluted with more than a dozen generals beside her. Since Cheng Yi knew that she followed the army to the front line, Edmund was scolded a lot. But Cheng Yi also acquiesced to her following, and the only requirement was not to leave his side.

Leng Xiling's personality is relatively indifferent, and Cheng Yi also trusts her. Leng Xiling had heard a lot about the content of the meeting, and knowing that it was not far from Seluda, her heart gradually floated. Touching the pistol that Osmond gave her at her waist, Leng Xiling's heart became even firmer.

That night, there was a sudden heavy snowfall.

Whether it is the Seluda or the Union Army, whether it is the Imperial Army or the Union Army. All the soldiers looked up at the snowflakes falling in the sky, and their thoughts were no longer war, no longer killing. Maybe all they have left may be tomorrow.
