Soon, a large group of police officers arrived and surrounded the house.
The commandos were in charge of the storm. The commandos were fully armed and even brought in two Maxim heavy machine guns. This thing was so powerful that it had to be moved to the roof next to it to ensure that bullets would not fly around.
, otherwise if it were fired flatly, the bullet would probably pass through half of Pretoria.
"Is the person here?" Henry was eager to give it a try.
"Not sure -" Rock is not sure. So far, there has been no movement in the house.
"How many people are there?" Henry didn't seem to hear Rock's answer.
"I don't know -" Roque was helpless. He didn't know whether anyone was there, so how could he possibly know how many people there were?
"How is the equipment?" Henry was still confused.
Rock didn't answer this time, and looked at Henry with Joe Russell's eyes caring for mentally retarded children.
Henry finally came to his senses, glared at Rock and Joe Russell fiercely, and picked up a tin speaker.
"People in the house, listen, you are surrounded -"
Boom!
Henry was answered by the crisp sound of gunfire.
"fff, attack, attack -" Henry became angry, and the bullet hit the tree next to Henry, sending sawdust flying everywhere, startling Henry.
"Use Maxim and shoot a box of bullets through it. A house like this can penetrate a row." Joe Russell, who was huddled behind a tree, was furious. It was so shameless. The so-called master humiliated his subjects and died——
No, really not!
"Don't, don't use heavy machine guns, try to catch as many people alive as possible." Rock made a decision.
"How to catch him?" Henry and Joe Russo looked confused. Are they going to risk their lives?
The ones responsible for the main attack are commandos, so Rock shouldn't be so careless about human life.
"Set fire and burn the house down. If they don't come out, they will be burned alive." Roque is absolutely ruthless when facing criminals. If he sacrifices his life, if Roque's men are all Indian policemen,
Then maybe Rock will do that, use the lives of commandos to pile up. Rock really can't do that kind of thing.
"Good idea!" Henry and Joe Russell said in unison.
——
Rock ignored the two jokes, called Martin and Gothe over and gave them detailed instructions, then picked up a Lee Enfield and prepared to wait and see.
Compared with a strong attack, setting a fire is not that simple. Gothe led his men in a feint attack in front of the house, with gunfire, dog barking, and angry curses coming and going, making it very lively. p>
Behind the house, Martin's men sneaked up to the back door, poured kerosene directly on the door, and then took out a lighter and lit it on fire.
Thick smoke suddenly billowed up, and people in the room screamed and screamed. Accompanied by violent coughing, two women and four or five children rushed out from the front door.
"Steady, steady -" Rock didn't shoot, unless absolutely necessary, Rock wouldn't point the gun at women and children.
Immediately behind the woman were four or five Boer men with frightened faces, one of whom was wearing a bloodstained patrol uniform jacket.
The real owner is finally here!
Rock aimed his gun, but the angle was not good. Between Rock and the rebels, there were women and children with equally frightened faces.
Boom!
The shooter was Henry.
Henry's shooting skills were not very good, and the bullet passed through a boy's arm and hit the abdomen of the rebel in police uniform.
Boom! Boom!
More gunshots rang out, and all the Boer men were knocked down. In addition to the boy who was accidentally injured by Henry, there was also a Boer woman and a girl who were accidentally injured. The Boer woman was the most seriously injured. It is unknown who was injured.
He was shot in the neck and died miserably after struggling for only a few seconds.
The girl whose leg was accidentally injured had blood on her face. She knelt beside the body of the dead woman and cried. The blood on her face belonged to her mother. Her mother was still trying to protect her with her body after being shot.
A dog-day war!
Rock didn't have time to reflect. The two patrolmen who were attacked also had family members. If the news of their death reached their families, their families would be devastated. Although it's time to repay grievances, they can only report grievances directly.
.
This is the fate of little people in the big era.
"Alert, alert -" Rock did not forget to aim his gun as he advanced. The parts of the downed rebels who were hit were not fatal. Theoretically, they still have the ability to resist. If they have anything that will arouse suspicion,
Any movement will lead to merciless shooting from the commandos.
Of course, this is just in theory. Most of the commandos' marksmanship is still very good. Almost all the rebels were hit in the arms by bullets. There is no doubt about the lethality of military weapons. Two rebels' arms were hit by bullets.
Just smash it into pieces, the kind that breaks into a ball of rotten flesh. It is estimated that even if you rescue it, you can only amputate it. Resistance is really only theoretical.
Maybe they could spit on the commandos.
If this can be considered resistance.
An accident still happened. Just when Rock was approaching the girl who was accidentally injured, the girl suddenly reached for a revolver that fell to the ground.
"Don't touch it!" Rock yelled.
"Put down the gun!" Gaode raised the gun.
"Stop, stop!" Li De was aiming, but the muzzle of the gun was trembling.
Boom!
The shooter was Joe Russo.
"I know you don't want to, but we have no choice." Joe Russo's heart was as strong as iron. His men were killed in the attack. As an inspector, if Rock and Henry hadn't insisted on giving confessions, he would have killed all the rebels.
Shooting.
Of course, their families are also included.
Rock was relieved. If Joe Russell hadn't fired the gun, when the girl picked up the pistol, Rock didn't know if he would have had the courage to pull the trigger.
Gao De and Li De also looked blank. Gao De already had a child, who was almost as old as this girl.
Li De himself is not married yet, but Li De also has children at home.
"Take the people away -" Rock pushed all the random thoughts out of his mind. The hatred between the Boers and the British was irreconcilable. Rock was now working for the British, so no matter what Rock thought, the Boers were Rock's.
enemy.
When he was in Cape Town, Rock still fantasized about being able to live in peace with the Boers after the war.
Now it seems that peaceful coexistence is unlikely. If in Cape Town, policemen like Roque were still outside the war, then now, Roque and the others have been deeply involved in the war.
Think about it, policemen like Roque arrested their husbands or brothers in front of these women and children today. They all say that time can dilute everything. So how many years will it take them and how much price will Roque have to pay to let them
Forget today’s hatred?
When an avalanche occurs, no snowflake is innocent.
