Chapter 75 Short Spear

On a rainy night, two people hid under a big tree outside the town and smoked. There was only one explanation. The two were sentinels. There was someone worthy of their protection in the town. The heavy rain distracted their attention. On such a night, They didn't think there would be an expeditionary force coming, so they let down their vigilance.

The first time he found the sentinel, Rock signaled the whole team to stop.

"What's the matter?" Henry struggling in the mud looked like a tumbler, crookedly coming to Rock.

"There are sentries under the big tree in front." Rock thought hard. To kill the sentry without attracting other people's attention, certain skills were needed, and Rock thought he couldn't do it.

"Maybe it's one of ours." Henry still had a chance.

"Don't be silly, if it was ours, the sentinel would have lost track of where it was going under such heavy rain." Rock was blunt. In fact, the performance of the British Expeditionary Force in the Boer War was not as good as that of the Boer Allied Forces.

"Then what are you waiting for? Get rid of them!" Henry was murderous. All the Boers, in Henry's eyes, were checks flying.

"You're crazy—" Rock suppressed Henry's raised muzzle, and signaled to the town with his chin: "With such heavy rain and conscientious sentries, there must be big fish in the town. You and Anton lead people Go around and set up a machine gun position on the other side of the town, I'll attack from this side, and see how much we can make this time."

Not only Henry is a money fan, but Roque is too. No one will have trouble with the pound.

"Good idea, wait for my signal." Henry agreed with Rock's plan.

This is also the safest way. If there are really big shots in the town, then as soon as the battle starts, the big shots in the town will flee immediately instead of organizing a counterattack on the spot, because no one knows how many people there will be in the rainy night. The expeditionary force is coming, so fleeing is the first option. At that time, Henry and the others just need to sit back and wait.

"How do you give me a signal, use a heavy machine gun to send a Morse code? Then how do you arrest people? After setting up the machine gun position, you wait, and I will launch an attack in the early morning and drive people out of the town." Roque has a pocket watch, high technology is really a good thing.

"You are simply a genius!" Henry backed Rock completely convinced, who are these people, is Huayong Camp's training so high-end!

Watching Henry and his party disappear in the rainy night, Rock raised his hand and called Li De over: "Did you see that big tree outside the town? There are two Boer guerrilla sentries under the big tree. To solve them, among our people, who can do it?"

Rock asked himself that he couldn't do it, so he had to work together. Among the Chinese policemen, there are many capable people and strangers, and the three cobblers are the best.

"Touch the whistle - let the Gao De brothers go, they used to be hunters, and they are best at this." Li De really has a way.

He was really good at it. Rock called Gothe and Gordon brothers over. After explaining the situation, Gothe and Gordon nodded again and again, and Gothe took out two fine steel short spears from his canvas pocket with his backhand.

"You still bring this thing?" Rock was surprised. The police station distributed Webley revolvers and Lee Enfield rifles to the police. These two actually brought their own weapons. They are really professionals.

"Head, my brother and I were thinking that we might be able to hunt a rabbit or something on weekdays, and make a small fire for the brothers." Gao De took off his raincoat and suede shoes on his feet.

Rock immediately had full confidence in the two Gao De brothers. They were indeed professionals. He took off his raincoat for the convenience of movement, and his leather shoes for the purpose of approaching quietly. He is not a veteran, so he would not notice these at all.

"Wait, let's go together." Rock wants to go with Gothe and Gordon to confirm that they are sentries of the Boer coalition army, and Rock is also worried that there will be a third sentry, one more person, one more guarantee.

In fact, there is no need to be so careful. On rainy nights, some faint voices are covered by the sound of wind and rain, and basically no one can be seen ten meters away. Rock, Gothe, and Gordon moved forward carefully until they could hear two people. The sound of sentries chatting.

Can't understand!

But Rock could tell that the sentry was speaking Dutch.

Although Dutch and English are two languages, Dutch is closer to English than either of the Germanic languages ​​German and English.

As long as it is a Boer, Rock nodded to Gothe and Gordon. Gothe and Gordon each held a short steel spear and bent over to approach the two sentries.

In the drizzle, Rock only saw a flash of cold light, but did not hear the sound, and the two sentries were knocked down to the ground.

Not counting being knocked down to the ground, Gothe's short spear was absolutely steady, accurate, and ruthless. The short spear directly penetrated the sentry's neck and nailed the sentry to the big tree behind him. The sentry "Hehe" gasped and grabbed the spear He tried to pull the short spear out of his neck, but the blood gushed out like a faucet turned on, and the sentinel slowly stood still.

"Good job!" Rock felt calm, and stepped forward to check the dead sentinel.

They are indeed Boers. Their stature is taller than ordinary British people, and their equipment is relatively backward. The expeditionary force has been equipped with Lee Enfield. The rifles of these two men are Martini Henry and Winches Special M1873 must be a Boer.

The Martini Henry rifle, perhaps also used by the British army, must be the Boers who use the Winchester M1873. Although this kind of gun has a faster rate of fire, because it uses pistol bullets, it has less charge and a short range. There will be British troops who will choose this weapon.

"Great job!" Rock praised without hesitation, and Gothe and Gordon were all smiling. They were the first batch of veterans who came to Cape Town. Hunting was useless in Cape Town. They came to Orange Free State It's finally a big show, as long as you hold Rock's thigh tightly, the future can be expected!

"Hurry up and eat something. Let's touch it in the early hours of the morning. If someone finds it, we will attack it head-on. Reed, protect your explosive bag and don't let it get wet." Rock was full of confidence. The big fish in the town, Rock is sure to eat it.

The rainy night is indeed difficult, but in order to win, Rock can only choose to wait in the rainy night.

Finally, the sky began to turn pale, and the heavy rain that had been raining all night finally stopped. Rock glanced at the town still shrouded in morning fog, and quietly issued an attack order to the commandos.

The heavy rain had indeed paralyzed the vigilance of the Boers to the greatest extent. Rock and the others successfully entered the town, which showed that the Boers only placed two sentries outside the town, not even a secret sentry.

But that’s where the success is. After all, they are not professional special forces. Rock and the others are not fully prepared, and they don’t have enough understanding of the situation in the town. Gothe just tried to open the courtyard door of the first house. The courtyard The dogs in the room immediately started barking.

What a dog!

Then attack it.

 In the two updates yesterday, the fish head was not scolded for being short and weak——Cui · Zhen · Bone Bones · Fish Head
