Chapter Seventy-Six: Desperate Survival
"Come on, little devil, I want to see if your God of War spirit is still alive today!" Richard shook his bayonet gun, and the Roman devil finally understood what he meant, and there was immediately admiration in his eyes: "The Egyptian soldiers are very brave, but the spirit of the god of war of my Roman army is invincible!" ”
"Less nonsense! I'm going to kill you today! Richard struck a wrestling position.
"Yikes!!" The Roman soldier roared, rushed forward, and stabbed with a knife, the movement was standard, brave and powerful. Richard waited for the bayonet to pierce half a foot in front of him, and with a sharp swing of his bayonet, swept away the bayonets of the Roman soldiers, and the man took a step forward abruptly, and had collided with the Roman soldiers, and the bayonets had already missed the bodies of the two men, and both of them wanted to press the enemy with the body of their guns.
Richard suddenly became powerful, and with a roar the gun smashed on the Roman devil, this kid was much shorter than Richard, and his strength was not as strong as him, he was touched vigorously, his footing was unstable, and he retreated to the wall by the side of the road again and again.
Richard followed him, and the bayonet was freed up and sent forward, piercing the Roman devil's stomach with a knife, and pushing the devil's body into the wall.
"Boom", the bayonet penetrated the body of the Roman devil and plunged into the wall, and the plaster on the wall rolled down.
The Roman devil who was nailed to the wall widened, struggled twice, and muttered, "Egyptians...... Dramatically ...... Awesome......"
"Dog-day Roman devils, go to hell for you!" Richard let out a hateful breath and turned away from the scene.
It didn't take long for Richard to hear a sharp whistle, the herald of the troops, mixed with incomprehensible shouts, and he knew that it was the gunfire that had caught the attention of another patrol, who rushed to the scene to find the bodies of several of his companions, and then summoned more soldiers to rush to reinforcements.
Soon, shouts and the clumsy sound of big scalp shoes on the stone pavement could be heard in all directions, and several flashlights flashed across each other.
Richard shook off this group of enemies, but he found that as he walked north along the middle road, there were more and more enemies, and no matter which side of the alley he went from, he could encounter the Roman devils.
It stands to reason that the center of the city was obviously the center of gravity of the enemy's troops, so he should try to avoid the center. Therefore, the route of travel should be changed. Most of the houses in this area are private houses, and there are also a few high-rise buildings, but they have all been washed and killed by Roman devils, and there is not a single living person everywhere.
Richard climbed up to one of the roofs and lay down between the roof tiles, where he wanted to take a break from the limelight and catch his breath. He looked up at the sky, and the sky was still gray, and everything was ethereal.
To the west, a third of the houses in the Old Town are on fire, smoke billowing and half of the sky reddened. There was a slight cold wind blowing, but he couldn't feel the cold, the blood in his heart was burning, hatred was gathering, and there was only one thought in his heart: kill!!
He crossed the ridge and kept moving in a northwesterly direction.
Suddenly, he heard the sound of dense footsteps, and he looked up and saw a black crushed human head 50 meters away, some of them were wearing the uniforms of the Egyptian army, and some of them were wearing the clothes of ordinary people, but all of them were tied with their hands and strung together by ropes, and they staggered in two columns. Richard guessed that these were the brothers who had been captured by the Egyptian army. But what did the Romans do with them here?
Several Roman devil soldiers took the prisoners under a high wall with bayonets, and stood in several horizontal rows, and several Roman devils with torches gathered around to watch the excitement, and two officers also stepped forward to watch.
At this moment, a Roman major walked up to the captives, and the room was loudly reprimanded, and the captives all turned around and looked at the major with grim faces. At this time, machine guns were set up on three sides, and a murderous aura suddenly enveloped the scene.
"It's not good, the Roman devils want to kill the prisoners!" Richard secretly complained to himself.
He quickly set up ***, and saw from the sniper scope that the major pulled out the command knife, the tip of the knife was upward, making a chopping shape, saying that it was too late, it was fast, Richard's pungent index finger quickly pulled the trigger, and a bullet roared out of the chamber, and the spark instantly drilled into the wrist of the major holding the knife, and a stream of blood rushed out, bringing the knife to fly, and the major covered his hands and screamed in pain.
Only a second had passed, and Richard's second bullet had been discharged, this time striking the sword-wielding major's heavenly spirit cover.
More than a dozen Roman officers and soldiers were dumbfounded, and before they could react, at this moment, Richard's third bullet had been loaded, and he turned the muzzle of his gun slightly, aiming at the machine gunner with the gun mounted on the low wall, "Bang! An angry bullet struck the Heavy on the center of his eyebrow, and a mist of blood splattered, causing the Heavy to bleed profusely and his leg twitched twice.
The other two machine gunners knew something was wrong, quickly turned their guns around, and looked around for the attacker.
"Badagaru! Kill ......" The Roman officer jumped to his feet in anger, and before he could pull out his command knife, a shot came to the brain, and blood splattered flesh, and the officer whimpered for his life.
Just as the Roman devil was stunned, Richard on the roof had shifted to a new sniper position, and he adjusted the muzzle of his gun to aim at another machine gunner lying behind a tree. This time he did not shoot immediately, the reason was that he had just forgotten about Ann***, and the huge gunfire alarmed the enemy.
This time, he was not in a hurry, took out the *** from the field backpack, and quickly installed it on the muzzle, only to pull the trigger, only to hear a soft "poof", and there was an extra blood hole in the steel helmet of the machine gunner.
At this time, the third machine gunner spotted Richard on the roof, turned the machine gun and came with a shuttle, "Da ......"
The Roman devils with torches raised their automatic rifles at the same time, aimed at the roof and fired together, "Bang, bang, bang, bang......"
Missiles are like locusts, and tiles are flying around.
Richard leaped forward, dodging the dense fire, jumped onto a low wall, went around the wall to the other side of the eaves, and stuck out the barrel of his gun through a gap in one of the shacks, and with a snap of his index finger, the third Heavy also met Hades.
At this time, there was a commotion in the group of captives, and Richard folded his hands and shouted, "Why are you still stunned, run!" ”
The camp was blown up with a "boom", and dozens of captives untied each other's ropes and rushed to the courtyard gate together, and a few bold ones rushed up to the Roman devils around them to snatch the guns in the hands of the devils.
Richard quickly changed the magazine, pulled the trigger repeatedly, and killed four or five Roman soldiers who were entangled and fighting with the captives in one fell swoop. The Egyptian prisoners took the opportunity to rush out of the courtyard and rushed into the streets like a flood of bursting banks. A few of the captives who grabbed the guns returned and killed the last few remnants of the enemy, which covered the retreat of their comrades.
Richard saw a large group of Roman devils rising not far away to reinforce him, so he shouted to the captives in the distance: "Everyone run away!" Separate runs! Hurry up, hurry up! Duck into the alley! ”
The captives seemed to have just woken up, and the well-trained Egyptian soldiers scattered into the alleys and quickly disappeared into the night.
Looking at the dead bodies in the courtyard, Richard shouted: "Hi! It's a pleasure to kill this time! He quickly jumped from the wall into another courtyard, and heard a jumble of footsteps from far and near, and knew that a large army of Roman devils was coming.
He climbed over several courtyard walls in a row, and the wind was blowing under his feet, gradually throwing the Roman devils away.
In the blue-gray morning light, everything on the ground seemed to float in the waves, sometimes clear, sometimes blurred. In the distance, the Nile River is like a white streamer, illusory, winding all the way to the south.
The royal family was asleep, and in order to protect themselves from the cold, everyone hugged each other and lay on the wet sand. The king was the only one on duty, and every few minutes he had to pick up his binoculars and look into the distance for a while.
He couldn't count how many times he watched, but this time he was not disappointed, and through the binoculars, he saw a small boat appear in the distance, and the boat slowly approached the sandbar, and a figure wearing a cloak and a hat wriggled on the boat.
The boat was approaching, and as it got closer, he recognized the figure on the boat as the liaison officer himself. At this moment, the liaison officer also saw the king and waved desperately at him.
When the ship ran aground as it approached, the liaison officer jumped into the water and moved closer to the shore in the withered reeds.
"Your Majesty, I'm back." The liaison officer finally stumbled ashore and hugged the king, who patted him on the back excitedly, and the two of them wept silently.
It took a long time for the liaison officer to wipe away his tears and say with a guilty face: "I'm sorry, Your Majesty, I'm late to come back." Actually, I found the small fishing village yesterday, but the fishing boats were burned by the Egyptian soldiers, so I had to go to the next farther village, and I rented a small boat. Ahem, it's good that I didn't run into a Roman devil patrol boat when I came, so come with me and go! ”
At this time, the sailors were alarmed, and dozens of people hulala surrounded them at once.
"It's safe over there, right?"
"Do you have anything to eat, I'm starving to death."
"There are no Roman soldiers ahead, right?" People are babbling this and that.
"Safe, there are no Romans," said the liaison officer, wiping the sweat from his forehead, with certainty, "we can go ashore and go further, about 50 kilometers away, and there will be a small town where we will have a telephone." ”
"But there is only one boat, more than 40 of us, how can we fit it?" The bearded minister said dissatisfiedly.
The king glanced at everyone and said decisively: "Let the seriously wounded go first, then the lightly wounded, and the others wait for the next shift." ”
"Well, I'll carry the queen and princess." Michael said that, and the health guard ran after him to the castration.
The liaison officer helped carry the four stretchers onto the ship first, and there was still room on board, and more than a dozen lightly wounded people also boarded the ship.
The king stood at a distance and said, "Pack as many people as you can, and go up as much as you can, and wait for the others to wait for the next shift." ”
In the end, the small fishing boat was packed with 22 people, and the boat was packed.
The king waved his hand and said, "All right, let's go first." Be sure to stay safe on the road. The liaison officer hurriedly propped the boat off the shore with a bamboo pole, and the boat slowly sailed towards the depths of the reeds.
Half an hour later, a troop of Roman cavalry came to the reedy sandbar, the embers of the three campfires on the ground still unextinguished, but there was not a single figure around.
