Seven or eight soldiers with shabby uniforms, messy beards, and military caps thrown somewhere were holding guns and staring at the women on the carriage. Their eyes looked at the bodies of women and girls with malicious intent.
Even though she was young, Anna could still feel the malicious looks from these people.
"What do you want to do? My husband is an army officer..."
Before Mrs. Angela could finish speaking, the leader of the rebels said.
"You're a dead man, ma'am, either you better yourselves, keep the money and carriage, and stay with us properly, or you're a dead man!"
The leader with the revolver in his hand looked at Mrs. Angela greedily. Although she held a pistol in her hand, he didn't have the slightest scruple.
"No, don't even think about it..."
As soon as Mrs. Dick finished speaking, the leader pointed his gun at her and shot her.
"boom!"
In the sound of gunfire, Mrs. Dick fell, having been shot in the chest and twitching in a pool of blood.
"ah……"
Anna and Emily screamed in horror. They couldn't believe what they saw, how could these people be so cruel.
Mrs. Angela was also frightened by the other party's cruelty, and the hand holding the gun even trembled a little.
"You, you..."
"She's just an old woman that no one wants."
The leader of the deserters sneered.
"Beautiful madam, our patience is very limited,"
The leader looked at Mrs. Angela greedily, and then his eyes fell on Anna and Emily. Seeing Angela hiding them behind her, he said nervously.
"They are still children..."
"You have grown up, ma'am."
The leader grinned, showing his yellow teeth.
"Of course, if you are willing to accompany us, madam, I can promise not to touch them."
"you you……"
"Madam, for you, this is the best choice now. Either you or all of you. Madam, what do you think?"
The leader had a smile on his face and looked at Mrs. Angela with his lustful eyes. Occasionally, he would also cast his eyes on the girls behind Angela.
Others also looked at the two girls behind Angela unfavorably. It seemed that to them, they were more interested in the girls than in the Madam.
Although she was extremely angry, Angela knew how helpless she was. Even if she shot and killed this person, what would be the result?
She will die at gunpoint. Not only will the girls die, but they will also be ravaged by the insurgents before they die. This is definitely the worst outcome.
Taking a deep breath, Angela said.
"Do you mean what you say?"
"I swear to God!"
The leader licked his lips. They preferred a lady who looked like a ripe apple to a young girl.
"Anna..."
Looking back at the girls, Angela said decisively.
"I'll go to the woods over there with them, you guys..."
Holding Anna and Emily in her arms, Mrs. Angela whispered in French in Anna's ear.
"As soon as you get the chance, just drive away in the carriage, you know?"
"Angela, what about you?"
Anna looked at Angela nervously.
"Don't worry about me, kid, you must be safe, you know?"
After getting off the carriage, Angela looked at the two girls with some reluctance. When she turned around, she looked at the rebel leader with contempt and said.
"let's go."
"Wait a moment,"
Although the leader was impatient, he still cut off the carriage's harness with a knife.
"You, why do you do this?"
Angela asked loudly.
"To prevent them from escaping, ma'am,"
The leader looked at Angela lustfully, and then said.
"I forgot to tell you, I am French."
Since she is French, of course she understands what Angela just said.
"But don't worry. I swear to God, as long as you stay with us well, we will definitely let you go."
Oh, God!
How could she meet such a group of people? Angela, feeling desperate, could only follow them step by step towards the woods.
Following Angela, the leader and the rebels looked at Angela's body with greedy eyes.
Finally, they walked into the grove, and when Angela stopped, the leader grinned, showing his yellow teeth, with a mouthful of stench. He held Angela's long hair with his hand and smiled.
"Madam, soon you will try what a real man is...hiss!"
While speaking, his hands forcefully tore open Angela's skirt. With the sound of the fabric being torn, "Ah" she let out a scream as her skirt was torn open.
Just then, "Bang!" The sudden gunshot made Angela feel a damp heat on her face, and blood and brains splattered all over her.
"ah!"
Just when she screamed, gunshots rang out again - a rebel fell down, and then there were dense gunshots one after another. Looking along the gunshots, Angela saw the big tree in the distance with blood on her face.
Behind, stood a dozen soldiers wearing green military uniforms.
Who are they?
After a while, Angela saw the soldiers - they all looked like Indians.
It's an Indian!
Angela wanted to run away, but the nightmare she had when she was a teenager made her unable to lift her legs, and her whole body was even shaking.
He, they are coming...
Wang Taisheng, who was carrying a Type 67 sniper rifle, followed the squad leader as he walked over. He looked at the bloody woman and quickly took out a towel and handed it to her.
"Here, wipe off the blood. Just now I only wanted to save you, but I didn't expect..."
Suddenly Wang Taisheng became mute. Standing in front of the woman, he saw the spring of spring at the opening of the woman's torn skirt. He blushed in embarrassment and was so nervous that he didn't even know where to move his eyes.
What is he saying?
Not Mapuche?
He... towel?
Angela was confused by the soldiers' actions, but despite her confusion, she seemed to understand that these people were different from what she had imagined.
"Angela...ah!"
When Anna ran into the woods and saw those soldiers, she screamed in fear and almost fainted. They were Indians!
But soon, their thoughts changed. When Angela washed away the blood on her face and body, and found a piece of Mr. Dick's clothes to wear, they looked at these soldiers curiously. These soldiers seemed to have a different attitude towards them.
There is no hostility whatsoever.
"Ann, Angela, do you think they will let us go?"
Emily looked at the soldiers nervously. Angela shook her head. She didn't know. As for Anna, she just looked at them helplessly. Are these people...really barbarians? They don't seem to be the same as in the legend.
Same.
Finding three women not far away looking at him, squad leader Sun Guo said to Wang Taisheng.
"Tai Sheng, go talk to them and ask them if they have somewhere to go. If so, leave here quickly. There are soldiers everywhere. This time they met us. Next time, we won't be so lucky.
Already..."
"Do you have somewhere to go?"
Standing in front of the women, Wang Taisheng pointed out that he did not speak Spanish and no one in his class could.
Although they couldn't communicate with each other, Angela still understood what this shy big boy was thinking after gesturing with her hands for a while.
"You want us to leave, right?"
Are they going to let them go?
that's all?
"Be careful on the road and don't run around. The war is in chaos right now. There are deserters everywhere. You must pay attention to your own safety. There are a few women. Hey, it's really not reassuring."
Saying this, Wang Taisheng helped them put the carriage back on the harness, then picked up the riding whip from the ground, handed it to Angela, pointed at the carriage and asked.
"Can you drive a carriage?"
"Well, I will, I will..."
Angela, who guessed what the soldiers meant, replied, are they going to let her go?
Just let them go.
Seeing the woman standing there dumbfounded, Wang Taisheng took out the revolver he had just seized from the corpse from his waist and stuffed it into Angela's hand.
"Here you go, take it and protect yourself on the road..."
Looking at the gun in her hand, Angela was a little confused. She didn't know what this shy man was talking about, but he gave her a gun. In their confusion, Wang Taisheng seemed to remember something and pulled something from his backpack again.
He took out a few boxes of cans and gave them to them.
"You should take these food with you and be careful on the way so as not to cause any trouble for yourself."
Looking at the things in her hands, Angela looked at the stranger in confusion. Even after leaving, the girls still kept asking.
"Angela, why did he give you the gun?"
"And the cans, they don't seem to be what they say in the newspapers."
