C3305 Late night gunfire

The sudden turn of events caused everyone in the meeting room to stop fighting! They rushed to the Vendome Square and looked in the direction of the sound of the cannons.

Boom … Boom! Boom! Boom …

The monotonous, rhythmic sound of gunfire came from the north, east, and south. In the darkness, there was always a dim light that appeared bit by bit. It was the light produced when the artillery shells exploded.

The sounds of the cannons were disorderly and disorderly, but most of the cannons were concentrated in the south and east, which meant that the enemy's attack was the fiercest today!

"These damn emperors are lackeys. They won the war in the day, but they still have to attack at night? "Prepare for battle..."

"Wait …" De Lekelvzi pulled the furious Wa Erlan back, "Wait a moment … "The sound of the cannon isn't like the sound before an attack, it's more like harassment …"

"That's right!" Raoult Rigo wiped away the blood on his nose and said angrily, "They want to keep harassing us so that we can't rest!"

"Not only do they want to defeat us on the battlefield, they also want to tire us to death and trap us to death!"

"If I'm not wrong, this round of shelling is bound to include new cannon from the German Krupp arsenal... Hehe … We don't sell our country, but people do! "

"Enough, stop arguing!" Michelle strode to the middle of the group, blocking the second clash that was about to break out.

"Tonight, let our women's guard be on duty, all men go to bed and rest... You must preserve your physical strength to block the enemy's crazy attack tomorrow! "

Before Michelle left, she turned her head and said to everyone, "Raoult Rigo is a cold mouth, he has always been like this, he doesn't seem to have any human emotions!"

"But there's one thing we have to admit that he's right... There is no such thing as fantasy in war. There is nothing that war doesn't care about! "

"Abandon the illusion, and we must recognize the cruelty of war! For victory... Sometimes we have to discard something! "

Michelle led the commanders of the female guards and left. Her words made everyone present ponder deeply, as everyone started to ponder whether it was as Raoult Rigo said, the previous revolutionary struggle was a little too idealistic.

This was the first time Raoult Rigo heard someone in the commune agreeing with his opinion. He put on his hat and turned around, "I'll bring some people to spy on the enemies!"

"I am a mouse in the dark. I dare not mix in your fighting strength during the day …" Leave the affairs of the night to me! "

This was the first time, that the people heard Raoult Rigo's sarcasm but did not refute it. At the same time, the upper echelons of the commune also began to reflect on why someone had given them the nickname of 'idealistic socialist revolutionaries'.

De Lekelvzi's judgement was correct. The Government Army did not have any plans to attack the place overnight, but they were not prepared to let the members of the commune have a good rest either.

There was no other reason and it did not matter if they were civilian targets or military targets. These cannons were shot according to the coordinates marked on the Military Maps.

Wherever there was prosperity, there was fame. There were even soldiers who played the game of throwing coins. Every time a coin hit a point on the map, they would fire in the same direction.

From this, one could imagine how much damage this aimless and random bombardment would cause to the civilians. Every block that was close to where the cannons were fired had a crowd of people fleeing into the night.

They threw away their meagre possessions and dragged the girls to a 'safe' place. The streets were in a state of chaos.

This was a very dangerous action. The crowd moved in the night, and it was easy for the old people and children to go missing. Once they were discovered by the government, they would immediately turn around and fire their cannons.

Michelle and Raoult Rigo realised the severity of the problem, and began to mobilize the citizens to wait at home!

"Citizens! "The enemies just randomly fired their cannons and they're just threatening us, let's all go home …"

"The casualties are even worse now. Quickly go home …"

"Everyone, spread out in the buildings. Even if you hit a bullet, you'll only suffer a small number of casualties. Once you hit the street and gather, a large number of artillery shells will be fired …"

"This is probability, don't you understand, don't you understand …"

The uneducated citizens did not know what probability was, they only knew fear, they just followed their emotions!

They wanted to escape, but they did not know where they could escape to!

Not only did the chaotic stream of refugees not return home, they instead sped up their retreat in the direction of the Montmartre plateau, causing the number of people on the streets to increase.

He was really afraid of what would happen. At this moment, a light flashed in the distance, followed by the sound of a foreign object rubbing against the air. Two artillery shells really flew over!

"Be careful …" Raoult Rigo pounced like a tiger towards Michelle and pushed her to a safe area on the street, followed by two loud bangs from the crowd.

The cannonball exploded amidst the crowds and the entire street became a slaughterhouse. The shockwave swept over the citizens and blasted away the corpses of those who had died into the flames!

Crushed rocks and mud mixed with pieces of meat fell down like rain. Thousands of people on the street were all shocked.

When people looked up, they saw that there were no longer any humans or animals left in the radius of 20 meters of the two huge explosive craters. The corpses were lying on the ground like radiating rays.

Ah … The crowd that had regained their senses let out a despairing cry and immediately scattered in all directions as they fled. This caused the scene to become even more chaotic.

The old man had lost his walking stick, the old woman had lost her bag, the children who had been separated from their mother were crying bitterly in the crowd, and the adults were so scared they didn't even know that there was a baby who was about to be trampled to death.

Raoult Rigo shook the sand in his hair, standing up he said in shock: "How could it be that accurate? Why is it so accurate? "

"Is someone informing the enemy?"

"Michelle, your women's guards are here to help evacuate the citizens, I will go to the enemy's base to gather information!"

Raoult Rigo controlled the Secret Police troops of the Commune, and almost half of the spies, plainclothes thugs and other outlaws all worked for him.

With the protection of these people, he could easily approach the enemy's position from the alleyway!

Raoult Rigo and the others were like black cats hiding in the darkness, slowly approaching the enemy's position.

The crowd scattered within the wreckage of the building. Relying on the bullet holes, broken windows, and cracks on the wooden boards, they observed the strange scene in the darkness. In the end, after more than half an hour, they found the problem.

"Sir..." "Look …" The person beside him lowered his voice and said, "Two o'clock in front, the third window on the third floor …" Is there a light? "

Li Gao immediately understood when he saw it. They were all experts in the dark battles. If they couldn't understand the lights, then they would have lived in vain!

"That's right, it's a light signal!"
