In the darkness, Van Kruse felt that he had been extremely unlucky recently. He had lost an entire army group of soldiers half a month ago, and now he might even lose himself.
His guards were firing fiercely in the corridor, and the enemy was almost dozens of meters away. He could even hear the unique sound of the opponent's weapons, and the air defense siren outside even stopped echoing.
The dwarf airport commander who was hiding with him knew that the dwarf soldiers stationed here did not have much combat effectiveness. It was estimated that the battle outside would be over soon, and hiding here was not a safe way for them.
But he had no other ideas: it was impossible to escape by running. Gunfire came from all directions, and the car at the door had already been damaged by the fierce battle... Well, even if it wasn't damaged, who would dare to try Tang Jun's attack there?
Is the marksmanship accurate?
At this time, all they can do is pray, praying that the surrounding troops can hear the sounds of fighting here and take the initiative to rescue these unlucky guys.
What is regrettable is that they have no idea that the surrounding troops have too much to take care of themselves: the scale of the Tang Army's airborne landing is larger than expected, and two entire divisions of Tang Empire's paratroopers landed nearby, and then a battle began.
Not only at this airport, but also closer to the coastline, Tang Army paratroopers were launching an attack into the fortress. They captured some solid defenses that were not garrisoned by many soldiers, and defeated the lazy dwarf soldiers inside.
In fact, neither side expected that such a thing would happen. The Tang army was shocked by the carefully built fortifications they captured, because if there were really a large number of dwarf soldiers stationed here, they might not be able to win easily.
Those fortresses and trenches carefully prepared for the elves were indeed extremely strong. After the Tang army occupied these places, they really broke out in a cold sweat.
However, Van Kruse placed almost all of his strength on the north side of Saint Lo, and there were few decent troops on the south and east sides.
There was no way, the pressure brought by Datang's 1st Group Army was too great, so the coalition forces really had no better choice.
If Van Cruz had not placed his main force in the north, perhaps those attacking the city now would not be the paratroopers of the Tang Empire, but the tanks and armored forces of the Tang Empire...
"Find a way to break out! Get out of here quickly!" Van Kruse, who had already had an escape experience, calmed down first. He also knew that there seemed to be no way out if he stayed here and defended.
Regardless of whether the Tang army is a small force or not, as long as they capture him or kill him, then the mission of this unit will be completed.
The opponent will not cry out because he lost dozens or hundreds of soldiers. On the contrary, if he is killed here, then Saint Luo will almost be finished!
Once the coalition forces fall into chaos and the Tang army takes advantage of the situation, the main force of the elves will have no way to arrive before the Tang army captures Saint Luo. Then...the series of combat missions planned before will not be established!
With its back to Shengluo, the Tang Army can assume a defensive posture. No matter how the coalition forces besiege it, this is probably the second landing site, and the Tang Army is fully capable of defending it!
After all, there is a port in Saint-Lo! It is a port! The Tang Army's transport ships can unload directly here! The Tang Army, which controls the sea, cannot be besieged and cut off from supplies. On the contrary, the Tang Army is equivalent to moving the supply points from
We pushed forward for several hundred kilometers!
This is not good news! With its back to the sea, the Tang Army will never worry about material transportation problems - after acquiring two port cities, the Tang Army has almost entered a complete state, and there is no longer any weakness on the Eastern Continent.
Spoken.
"General! It's too dangerous to move at this time... There are gunshots everywhere, and the visibility outside is not good. I'm worried..." The guard captain didn't agree with running out to die at this time, so he started to persuade.
Van Kruse interrupted the other party's words and directly ordered: "We must go! Staying here will definitely lead to death! There is still a chance to run now!"
"Sir! The brothers outside can't stand it any longer! They need some magazines..." A guard soldier hurried into the house and cried for help: "Send a few people over to provide support. Several people are dead.
.”
They are guards. They have no grenades or heavy weapons. Their ability to survive until now depends on their faith. If they run out of ammunition, they will really have to rely on words to decide the outcome of the battle with the enemy.
"I know! You go back first, I will take people there immediately." The captain of the guard lied. He was preparing to cut off his tail to survive: someone has to hold the enemy back, and naturally it cannot be him.
Own.
Seeing the soldier reluctantly leaving, the captain of the guard immediately looked at Van Cruz: "Yes! General! Let's leave the building from the other side! You must follow me closely. The view outside is not good. If you get separated, then
It’s really over.”
"Okay! I'll follow you closely." Van Kruse nodded. They didn't hesitate and left the canteen immediately with the adjutant and a few soldiers around them.
The dwarf airport commander also followed Van Cruz. For him, following the highest-ranking officer was obviously a safer choice.
As for the pilots and some dwarf officers and soldiers who came over after the incident, no one cared about their lives at this time.
These people simply surrendered immediately after Van Cruz left: the Tang army quickly penetrated the defense line of the Elf guards who had little ammunition left, and the pilots who only had pistols immediately handed over their weapons.
Van Cruz followed his guard captain out of the building through the back window and walked to the edge of the airport in the dark. Unfortunately, they were discovered by Tang Army paratroopers before they had gone far, and a fierce battle ensued.
In the darkness, the unlucky dwarf airport commander was shot first, followed by two more elf guards who resisted and were killed. The remaining few were hiding in a low-lying place in a panic, not even daring to raise their heads.
.
In the end, Van Crews was the braver one. He yelled out what he thought was the strongest words at the top of his lungs: "I am Van Crews! Don't shoot! I surrender! Surrender!"
Ironically, when he shouted these words, the battle at the airport was actually still going on: the elf soldiers who stayed behind in the building did not know that the target they were guarding had escaped, and they were still trying to block it at the risk of their lives.
