Chapter 33: One by one
The Germans ran!
With the attention of the British being attracted to the stupendous air battle, Alex and Halal Farmer ran without hesitation.
When Montgomery discovered the situation, the "Germans" already retreated at a fair distance.
Lieutenant Henry felt as if his glory as a British officer is further being ridiculed, and immediately ordered a pursuit rushed to catch up with those Germans.
"Lieutenant !"
Montgomery hurriedly stopped Lieutenant: "There is a jungle ahead sir, the Germans are very sharp with their shots, I am worried we will be annihilated, sir…"
"I don't need a coward here, Sergeant!" The only thing that Lieutenant Henry is thinking about now is how to get back to General Gough, reporting of his grave failure.
Never! His honor will forever be tarnished if he returns with failure!
He ignored Montgomery, as he and the soldiers struggles to catch up…
...
This is the last magazine, Alex thought helplessly.
The Tank support is gone, and now the MP18Sub Machine Gun has only a dozen or so bullets left. But in any case, the MP18Sub Machine Gun must not fall into the hands of the enemy!
There is a lush jungle ahead, and that may be the key to survival.
Alex and Halal Farmer rushed in and zigzagged across the large lush green. Alex then halted in his tracks, so as Halal Farmer, noticing the signal of Alex as he asked, "What's wrong Lieutenant?"
"Beansprout, there is a huge pit ahead, help me to bury this weapon."
He buried the two MP18Sub Machine Guns as it is dead weight if he continues to carry them with little to no bullets left, and then filled them with soil, then covered them with a layer of old soil.
Who can guess that there are two new weapons buried underneath?
Alex took a spare rifle from Halal Farmer, and now, the lives of both people depend on these two British rifles.
"Let's split" Alex couldn't figure out the situation of the pursuing British as he decisively gave orders to Halal Farmer.
As they enter the woods, the two people who have been fighting together must be separated to garner many advantages in the jungle.
Alex is not afraid of it. For him, the woods are more able to give him the advantage of individual combat, Halal Farmer also felt likewise as he sped through the Northeast to find a suitable position.
Alex quickly found a great location where he could accurately monitor the movements at the rear yet also a place easy to retreat.
He adjusted his breath, finger ready on the rifle trigger, and sights locked at the moving bushes ahead.
Inhale... Exhale... Deep Breaths...
Now.... the real hunt... begins!
.....
Lieutenant Henry came to the woods with the full company, he did not hesitate to rush in, his honor as an officer is at stake! He must complete the task of the superior, no room for any kind of hesitation!
He dispersed the soldiers into more than a dozen search squads, slowly fanning into the woods…
They didn't know that the muzzle of the god of death had already been aimed at them… Like a praying mantis eyeing its prey, its sickle readies for the kill.
Watching a figure of a soldier appear under his sights, Alex's mouth showed a cruel smile.
In the battlefield, there is no need for any form of sympathy!
The Enfield rifle has locked its target.... its first victim… Alex's hand is stable and his breathing is steady. His heartbeat gradually slowing down. The noises around gradually diminishing as his focus reach its peak.
Even if a mortar explodes nearby, Alex can even be sure that he won't move!
Target locked.
Alex's hand reached for the trigger…
BANG!
A bullet flew out, and the crisp gunshots sounded on the woods that seemed so quiet.
ngeeeew... psk... Hit!
Alex clearly saw that the weapon in the target's hand flew out, and the whole person recoiled for a bit then crumpled to the ground…
"Ambush!" A British's voice sounded loudly in a panic!
Alex didn't stop for a moment, he immediately took his rifle and leaped backward. Never stay in the same position, otherwise, it will become the target of the enemy!
Sure enough, less than two seconds after his evacuation, the British soldiers' bullets covered the place where he had previously been hiding…
Lieutenant Henry lost the first soldier since entering the woods.
But the hunting game is just beginning!
Alex did not go far as he quickly found a new ambush location. It was two stones a few meters in height, pressed together with a little gap in the middle.
Then a muzzle stretched out of the small gap…
Lieutenant Henry quickly calmed himself and pacified the soldiers as he was sure that the enemy had already left. There would always be a loss in such a disadvantageous place, and this is completely acceptable for the Lieutenant.
Carefully tread on forward…
What these British did not know was that the said killer in the woods did not go far…
New target... locked!
The brutal smile seemed to have solidified in the mouth of Alex… as he placed his finger on the trigger once again...
A British soldier appeared in his sights once again.
Alex knows that a new soul will be added to rest in this quiet jungle.
Alex murmured as the poor soldier entered his range.
"Don't be a soldier again in the next life."
BANG!
The ghostly bullet burst out with a loud sound!
Next!
The British soldier died inexplicably, and the poor soldier don't know where the deadly bullet came from!
Before the ambush, Alex was already optimistic about the route of retreat, hit and run! British can't capture these types of hunters at all!
Another British took another step in Alex's range.
The rifles in the British's hands shot aimlessly at the place where the gunshots sounded. The shots were very lively.
It was easy to wait for the gunshots to stop. Several soldiers were frightened and shot everywhere, but were they the hunters or the prey? Could they figure out the hunter?
And with that.... they lost another companion!
Some British have been scared shitless of these terrible woods, no one knows where the next bullet will come from and who will fall next.
In these woods, there is a terrible demon lurking!
Lieutenant Henry witnessed the death of two soldiers in front of his very own eyes, and what is even more frustrating is that he did not even find a single hint of the enemy!
This is the most terrible thing!
Damnit! Once I catch this damn German, I will definitely torture him on the spot!
At this moment, the gentleman's grace on the Lieutenant has disappeared.
The most terrible thing in the woods is not the enemy's heavy machine guns, but to face an enemy that cannot be seen!
The enemy hides at an unknown place in the woods, waiting to shoot new targets anytime.... anywhere.
At this time, a shot was heard a few hundred meters away from them. Without looking at it, Lieutenant Henry knew that another team of British soldiers had encountered another German!
Lieutenant Henry had never played such a shackle ever before. When a whistle sounded, the only thing they have to do is to focus what's forward and ignore the enemy encountered by the other search squad.
Now, they have to face a new and most terrible type of enemy in these accursed woods.
Demon hunters in the woods!
