Chapter 33

Sacrifice with life

At dusk, Frank Boseman and the 233 officers and soldiers who had survived the hard battle retreated into the depths of the woods.

In the past two hours, they have continuously resisted the Soviet army's repeated attacks with astonishing endurance. The crude position was almost filled with the bodies of Soviet soldiers, and more than 30 damaged tanks and armored vehicles were also damaged. Such a result was created by an ordinary infantry battalion in a short time. The intensity of the battle can be imagined. Under the call of hope and faith, the soldiers of the Empire have shown their limit energy on various fronts, thus greatly making up for the number and strategic disadvantages of the Imperial ** team.

Based on the head alone, Boseman's troops suffered only half of the losses, but few of the remaining two hundred people were completely injured. The sunset penetrated the gaps in the branches and leaves and left mottled light and shadow on the ground. The soldiers supported each other and walked forward silently. Looking from the side, the team was filled with an indescribable heavy atmosphere.

The cruel reality does not allow the young and resolute commander to appreciate compassion. The rising and falling gunfire reminds him and his soldiers that strong enemies are still following closely. Looking at the surrounding environment, Boseman quickly made a decision, reorganized his guard squad and some of the surviving soldiers into a team, and personally led these imperial soldiers to block the pursuers.

The sound of machine guns, submachine guns and grenade explosions approached step by step, and the last group of soldiers behind the temple retreated in a mess. The leading non-commissioned officers were slightly surprised when they saw Boseman.

"There are many enemies and the attack is very fierce. It seems that I am planning to kill us all!" said the non-commissioned officer hurriedly.

"Hmph!" Boseman narrowed his eyes hatefully. He waved his hand to signal the sergeant to lead his subordinates to retreat first. In this way, the guard squad had only more than fifty soldiers and six machine guns to pull out the scattered line for forest defense. The absolute disadvantage of troops means that the front line is easily forcibly broken through by the enemy or surrounded by flanks, and the soldiers with the best shooting skills in the camp stayed in Noinkishen to restrain the Soviet garrison. At this time, Boseman didn't care about so much. He asked the soldiers to bury the ** originally used to break the railway line.

Thirty or forty meters ahead of the front line, the ** and the detonator were connected through wires, and several soldiers retreated and opened fire, so that the enemy could not understand the real position of the Imperial Team's back line. Soon, Soviet soldiers wearing green painted steel helmets and earth-brown uniforms appeared in front of their sight. They were indeed a large number and had no lack of experience in forest combat, but tanks and armored vehicles could not pass through this dense woods, and mortars were difficult to function. They could only use the guns in their hands to open up roads.

Seeing that the Soviet soldiers approached the explosion point cautiously and resolutely, Boseman decisively issued an attack order, and several explosion points detonated at the same time. Six mg42 and more than 40 assault rifles, the submachine guns were fully fired, and hundreds of Soviet soldiers were immediately beaten so hard that they could not raise their heads, and the number of casualties suddenly increased. Then, Boseman reused his skills, ordering several soldiers to retreat while firing, and the rest decisively stopped firing and hid in bushes or potholes in woodland.

The gunfire was gradually weakening on this side. The Soviet troops, which were blocked, organized firepower to counterattack. Seeing the Emperor's team evacuated quickly, they rescued the wounded while advancing forward with the vanguard who had obtained a supplement. When they almost arrived, Boseman issued another order. The soldiers all threw out the last grenades left, and the dense explosions happily knocked down many Soviet troops. The coherent firepower of mg42 also firmly suppressed the Soviet machine gun combat team supporting the attack.

"Imperial warriors, either the enemy destroys us, or we destroys our enemies! For victory...assault!"

Boseman's shout was full of energy. The imperial soldiers who temporarily gained an advantage in the scene jumped on the attack without hesitation. Unlike the traditional charge-style attack, the soldiers alternately advanced with thick tree trunks as cover, using the melee advantages of assault rifles, submachine guns and pistols to attack and kill those Soviet officers and soldiers who were suppressed by gunfires, and avoid the counterattack firepower of the Soviet army at any time. Compared with direct attacks with bayonets, this offensive mode relies more on skills and is not easy to destroy precious lives under the enemy's muzzle. It is especially suitable for the army with limited troops but excellent technical and tactical qualities. It can be called the original tactic of the Emperor* team of the Nordic era!

With the huge gap in force, Boseman and his soldiers only completed the "infantry assault" that advanced more than 20 meters forward. As the Soviet soldiers who arrived later entered the battle, the Soviet firepower quickly reversed and suppressed, and the casualties of the Imperial Team increased by more than a dozen in a blink of an eye, while the rest of the soldiers could only withdraw from the battle with the cover of these injured companions - for soldiers, this is the most painful thing in the world!

With the same decisive retreat as during the attack, Boseman withdrew from the firefighting area and counted it. In addition, the Soviet soldiers had previously induced the Soviet army to retain only 31 people. The grenades were exhausted, the machine guns were lost, and there was little ammunition left. Despite this, Boseman ordered a new blocking defense line to be laid on the east bank of the forest stream. Only by dragging the pace of the Soviet pursuit troops could it be possible to cover the base's livelihood forces to continue to move towards the coast, thereby attracting more Soviet troops to join the battle in this direction and help friendly forces with still strength realize their combat mission.

Everyone has their own mission, and sometimes they pay the price of their lives to realize it.

In the new blocking area, the brave imperial soldiers had no time to take a few more breaths, the Soviet pursuers approached again. With the grief of losing their companions, Boseman's soldiers gritted their teeth and endured it. Until the commander issued a firing order, they vented their anger with fierce shooting. At the combat distance of less than 100 meters, the high-accuracy automatic weapons were obvious. Less than 40 imperial soldiers blocked the enemies close to a company on the other side of the stream with their skillful combat skills. Seeing that all the companions who were attacking forcibly died beside the stream, the Soviet soldiers no longer made a rash progress, but instead shot against the Emperor. After two cigarettes, Boseman and his soldiers were almost out of ammunition and food. Just as they were about to retreat, the opposite side

The Soviet gunfire weakened first. Then, several balls of red smoke appeared in the woods on the west bank of the valley, which slowly rose above the top of the tree. The environment in the forest was not very suitable for the use of poison gas weapons. Boseman and his soldiers were puzzled, and suddenly heard a dull roar above their heads. They felt awkward and quickly dispersed. In the thunder, the strong wind made the branches and leaves sway wildly. Bombs that were much larger than mortar shells smashed through the branches and leaves and fell down. A violent explosion occurred around the stream. The powerful explosion impact easily broke the thin trunks and branches. Under this sudden blow, the soldiers of the Empire could only crawl on the ground to avoid the invasion of bombs. There was no way to grasp their lives, and there was no time to consider anything else at this time.

The powerful explosion swept through like a hurricane, his vision was blocked by dust and smoke, and his damaged hearing was barely recovered. He heard the sound of "Ula" when the Soviet officers and soldiers charged. The Soviet soldiers who guided the air strike and retreated early attacked. They broke through the smoke and dust with great momentum and drifted by water by the remains of the dead. In this case, Boseman and his soldiers had no time to weave a blocking firepower net with their weapons. What is commendable is that in the face of the surging Soviet infantry, none of them retreated because of timidity, but stood with a decisive spirit!

"Fight!" The moment before the short battle, Boseman used his confidence to let out a roar that was not inferior to his opponent.

This battle was a real duel. More than 20 imperial soldiers bravely fought against Soviet soldiers who were many times more powerful than themselves, using their butts and fists to fight against the enemy's sharp bayonets and strong bodies. Such a battle was destined to be extremely tragic and tragic from the beginning. Although the Soviet soldiers were interested in leaving behind a living mouth, the fishy blood, dazzling wounds and accumulated hatred turned people into crazy beasts, and it was almost impossible to stop in the midst of the fight.

As a fighting master in the Imperial Guards, Boseman once had a record of one victory or five, but the battlefield is not a personal hero now. After knocking down one Soviet soldier after another, Boseman was knocked down, and the cold butt stock smashed its hard cheekbones, and the wound was bleeding. The unyielding warrior climbed up tenaciously, then fucked another enemy, and was then severely knocked down by the enemy. He almost fainted. Just when Boseman thought his life was about to end, an imperial soldier took out a grenade from the dead Soviet soldier. The close-range explosion created a short chance. Another imperial soldier seized the opportunity to help Boseman evacuate. In order to cover his commander, the remaining imperial soldiers resolutely delayed the surrounding Soviet army with their bodies!

With endless sadness and unwillingness, Boseman and the remaining Imperial Warrior were finally able to evacuate. They ran wildly until they caught up with the main force of the base camp who had successfully withdrawn from the battle. It was getting darker, and fierce gunfire and explosions came from the direction of the railway line. It is unknown how the battle situation there was Boseman. The risks taken by friendly troops must be no less than that of themselves. At this moment, on the battlefield that runs across the German territory, every Imperial soldier is fulfilling their original oath, and is also breaking through the bondage of fate with his will!

On the same night, in a ruined area south of Stuttgart, the rebels who survived the devastating blow were reunited under the leadership of Lynn. They found a radio station that could still be used. Knowing that it would attract revenge attacks from the Soviet army, they still chose to send a message clearly to inform the world that the insurrectionists in Stuttgart, Germany had never given up on resistance. They protected the German battle flag with their blood and souls, and pursued honor, freedom and faith with their unrepentant lives...
