C401 cover charge

The French army who had invaded the Guotou Village never expected that the Chinese would launch a counteroffensive. At that moment, all of them were stunned.

"Am I hallucinating? Without the help of artillery, they actually dared to launch a countercharge against the France's army? What were they relying on? Just because they mobilized a bunch of people in patched pants? "Hahaha …"

"Shoot …" Get rid of these barbarians! " With an order from the officer, the three hundred French troops stopped what they were doing and, relying on the wall that had just been formed, began firing at the charging crowd.

The French army that Chu Zhao was facing was not the Prussian soldier that he was facing. Under Molière's strict orders, the fire spears that he was carrying were all the most advanced afterlife needle-like rifles.

Pah pah pah … Amidst the dense sounds of gunfire, the charging military formation looked as if it had been struck by an invisible heavy hammer. Immediately, a large amount of crumbled down, and the entire battlefield was filled with wails and screams.

"Fire Back …" Throwing grenades at them … Why the fuck are you shaking? "If you slap yourself to death, then scram back home …"

"Speed up, alternate cover..." "F * ck, if I bring civilians to war again in this life, then I might as well kill myself …"

It was already very difficult for Chu Zhao to control more than a thousand companies of troops. It seemed very reasonable for him to break and scatter the ordinary soldiers as a class monitor and Queue length, but there were all kinds of awkwardness between fighting against a company of soldiers and generals who did not get along well.

The cross-cover firepower in the charge wouldn't work, the tempo of the wave band attack wouldn't be grasped well, and the aim of the shot wouldn't be... In a battle with such soldiers, Chu Zhao and the others only had one feeling in their hearts, and that was pain.

Fortunately, this was only a feint, their goal was only to cover water ghost's ambush, whether or not they could break through the enemy lines was not important.

After all three rounds of fire by the French Army, the charging crowd had abandoned over a hundred corpses. However, the vanguard had also closed in on the French Army at a distance of fifty meters. The sound of hand grenades being thrown could be heard from the crowd, followed by hundreds of black iron lumps flying over.

The commander of the French army was indeed experienced and "concealed". With a roar, all the soldiers retreated behind the wall, curling their bodies as low as they could to avoid the bullets.

Boom! Boom! Boom! After a series of grenades' explosions, the number of casualties for the French army immediately soared. The commander of the rear fleet even saw the red lobster exploded in midair.

"Damn it, this bunch of barbarians really do have some skills …" The gunner is prepared to provide cover for our brothers in the army! "Damned bastard, go to hell …"

When the two cruisers saw that their own people had been bullied, they immediately reloaded and started firing without any hesitation. In the blink of an eye, the entire charging area was filled with smoke.

No one knew that it was this round of cannons that had allowed the four water ghost s to successfully approach the warship. Initially, according to the clarity of the Guotou Village Sea, the closer the water ghost got to the battleship, the higher the probability of it being discovered. But when the rounds were fired, the trembling of the cannons caused countless of lines to form on the water surface, and Chu Zhao's counterattack also attracted the attention of the lookout hand.

The water ghost had finally gotten within a hundred meters of the battleship, and this was also the place where the water surface vibrated the most. The light and shadows twisted, making no one aware that the Death God had already arrived.

At this time, the charge on the battlefield was no longer possible. The remaining soldiers were hiding behind rocks or simply climbing into the crater to fire at the enemies. They were desperately trying to gain time.

Amidst the rumbling sounds of gunfire and the sounds of gunfire, the soldiers who were desperately struggling against the enemy's gunfire rolled around on the ground like mud-monkey-like. The bullets fired from the sky exploded onto the ground and the rifles fired.

"Brothers, please hold on for a bit longer …" "There's nothing to be afraid of, it's better to die fighting than to be captured. Our days have only begun, and now whoever dares to attack us will be the one to beat them …"

Chu Zhao and Luo Houzi were not only going to fight, they were going to observe the morale of the soldiers as well. The two of them were very clear that the young and strong people of the militia were fighting with the anger in their hearts, although their explosive power was strong, the reliability of fighting with anger was not even close to that of fighting with the Iron Blood Army's discipline.

Chu Zhao could already feel the changes in the emotions of the warriors beside him. Their firing rate was chaotic, the accuracy of their hand grenades had changed, and even the breathing of the young robust men beside him had started to quicken.

The signs of collapse had already occurred, and it was impossible for a keen commander to not notice.

"Hold on, brothers hold on …" The Guotou Village is no longer here, if we retreat now, the Northern Mountain will fall too. The entire Ryukyu will not be able to defend the Northern Mountain, and taking a step back will be our home country! "

Just as Chu Zhao and Luo Houzi were at a loss for what to do, a clear and melodious female voice suddenly came out from the trench. Cai Mao's little daughter, Cai Bixia, suddenly shouted out in the Ryukyu language.

"Don't be afraid. It's already been 15 minutes. Uncle and brother will succeed if they go scuba diving …" The French didn't find them... "

The French of course could not understand the Ryukyu's language, and it was also because of Cai Bixia's reminder that caused the morale of the people on the battlefield to settle down.

Fortunately, Cai Bixia had an idea, and then the countless people on the battlefield all shouted out the Ryukyu's language, and in the end, all of them converged into one word, "Five minutes …" 5 Minutes... "Hold on for 5 minutes!"

"4 minutes... Four Minutes... Hold on for 4 minutes! "

Hope was always the best motivating tool. All of the young and robust youths on the battlefield immediately forgot their fear as the sounds of battle became denser. The Frenchman on the opposite side did not know what the Ryukyu people were shouting about, and the Chinese translator who was with the army was even more dumbfounded, unable to understand anything.

"This, this, this, this …" ~ Is this a god that the people of Ryukyu believe in? It should be, barbarian, of course we would believe in some strange gods, it must be! "

There were constant shouts from the battlefield, and all the attention of the French people was focused on this. The Marines were shooting at each other on the walls, the cannons on the battleships were firing continuously, and even the deck was filled with sailors who were watching the fight. However, no one noticed that a few water ghost s with thin bamboo tubes in their mouths were approaching them from within the rippling sea waters.

These four people were indeed the best in the Guotou Village. In these twenty odd minutes, they had only used bamboo tubes to exchange for air four times, and even if they did, they only used bamboo tubes to gently tap on the surface of the water. Then, they quickly sank into the three meter deep sea and quietly swam towards the battleship.

Each explosive package weighed at least 25 kg. If so many explosives were successfully detonated, not to mention a wooden battleship, they could even pierce through a layer of metal armor.

The seabed world was deep and wondrous. All sorts of sea creatures seemed to have sensed the existence of the killing intent, and immediately fled in all directions when they saw the water ghost approach.

The two groups of water ghost s finally got close to the bottom of the battleship, and looking up from this angle, everything seemed to be in a dreamy blur. The sunlight was torn apart by the ripples on the surface of the sea to become spots of light, and the long shadow of the battleship was cast into the water, you could even see the boundary between the light and shadow.

Suddenly, a red light flashed on the surface of the sea, and the school of fish was scared away. The four knew that the cannon on the warship was firing again, and some of the people on the shore were killed.

Their eyes were filled with rage and their hearts were filled with the desire for revenge. The four of them pointed to the bottom of the boat and quickly picked out their targets. Two of them swam straight for the Shattered Waves, while the other two swam straight for the Shattered Waves.

They didn't have much time left. On one hand, the situation was urgent, and on the other hand, the breath in their chests was about to run out.

One of the water ghost s lifted a wooden chest, raised both of his hands and pushed into the bottom of the boat, while the other one grabbed a long iron nail, swung his iron hammer and started to smash onto the boat.

This was the most primitive type of water mine, and every step of the way required manpower to control it.

There were very few people here, but right now, coincidentally, because it was already past noon, the chefs on the battleships had already started preparing the food, and they were moving sausages and bacon from the hold one after another.

"Wait …" Listen! "What is that sound?" a clever sailor suddenly asked, pointing to the bottom of a pile of wine cases.

"Is it a big mouse? "Haha, the fresh meat has been added to the soup today …" As he spoke, the two sailors charged forward, but the large rat didn't appear, and the dull thumping sound never stopped.

Several sailors looked at each other. Suddenly, they heard the collective cry of "There's someone in the sea …" "There's someone under the boat …" These chefs had never run so fast in their lives, and their voices were never so loud.

He was the first one to discover the existence of the water ghost.

Very soon, the whole ship was in an uproar. When the people on the deck heard that there was a water ghost at the bottom of the sea, the sailors on the side of the ship jumped down without saying a word.

The Shattered Waves did not know why, but they waved and asked their comrade for help over fifty meters away. It was so messy that they could not hear anything clearly.

The two water ghost s had only ordered two nails and they discovered that they were already surrounded. The surroundings of the ship were all white water bubbles after diving into the water, the fierce-looking French sailor took out the dagger at his waist and rushed towards them.

The two water ghost s looked at each other without any hesitation. One of them continued to nail down, while the other took out a fish fork from his waist that was cut short to protect his brother.

This was purely a cold weapon of war. In the sea, no matter how strong the Gun was, it was useless, as they could only rely on their own hands and the weapons in their hands.

Indeed, each inch was longer than the previous inch. The two-foot long harpoon stabbed forward as three bloody holes appeared in the chest of the sailor who was rushing at the forefront. Blood gushed out as bubbles popped out of his mouth.
