Chapter 469 Bring Me My Red Flag
When he heard the mortar, Jonard knew it was bad.
Before joining Komanda, Jonard served in the Highland Corps and joined the expeditionary force. He knew the threat of artillery fire to light infantry.
Although Komanda's individual quality was top-notch, he was just a light infantry in the face of artillery fire, even if it was just mortars.
Jonard shouted: "Hide! Enter the solid bunker! Enter the solid bunker!"
While shouting, he picked up two ammunition boxes, rushed down the stairs and hid in the bridgehead.
There was also an MG34 without a tripod in the bridgehead, which used the same bullets as the machine gun on the tripod on the roof.
After Jonard rushed into the bridgehead, the mortar shells fell outside the bunker.
Martin and George, who were a step slower, rolled down the stairs directly.
"Damn, you stepped on my face!"
"Damn, if you didn't push me suddenly, we wouldn't have rolled down the stairs like a ball!"
Jonard glanced at them, ignored them, and continued to pay attention to the outside.
The Prosons seemed to have come to their senses and turned around to rush to the bridgehead, then ran head-on into a hail of mortar shells and was blown away.
Jonard laughed out loud - even though Komanda was in danger now, he couldn't help laughing when he saw the enemy's own typewriter.
Martin and George stopped blaming each other, looked at each other, and then looked at Jonard together.
At this time, the phone in the bunker rang.
Jonard picked up the phone immediately: "Hello? Who are you?"
"I'm a doctor. The two of us have occupied the enemy's camp building. There is a radio station that has not been destroyed yet. Someone who can send a message is here!"
Joanard: "Can send a message? This..."
He looked at Martin: "Wait a minute, Martin, you were in the mail room at the train station before joining the army, right?"
"The train station telegraph office! Telegraph office! I've said it many times, it's a telegraph office, not a mail room! My station is a big station!"
Joanard: "Okay, okay, I get it. Can you send a message?"
"Of course, but I don't have a code book, neither the Allied nor Prossen's. I can only use the universal code of the international postal service to invent a code telegram, which anyone can receive and interpret." Martin spread his hands.
Jonard opened the gate of the bridgehead: "Go to the battalion headquarters, there is a radio station there. In this situation, we must get support from the landing ANT troops immediately, otherwise we will be killed by the enemy with simple numbers and this damn mortar barrage!"
Martin looked at the mortar barrage that kept falling outside. Just at this time, a mortar happened to fall on the roof of the bridgehead. After the explosion, a lot of gravel and dust fell on the three people.
Martin: "Are you sure you want me to run to the battalion headquarters building under this kind of artillery fire?"
Joanard took out the Scottish bagpipe that he had been carrying on his back and looked at Martin seriously: "Yes, I will go with you."
Martin squinted at the instrument in Jonard's hand: "What does this have to do with you taking out the bagpipe?"
Joanard blew a long note, then tried all the holes of the bagpipe, making sure that the instrument was in good condition.
Then he began to play "Highlanders Marching", a famous Scottish war song and the regimental song of the Highland Infantry Regiment.
Then he walked into the mortar barrage while playing the bagpipe.
Martin and George looked at each other.
Martin cursed: "Either he is crazy, or the world is crazy, maybe everyone is crazy."
After that, he crouched down, rushed out of the bridgehead, and followed Jonard.
Martin: "You should walk faster! Get away from this damn barrage!"
Jonard continued to play the song slowly. At the same time, a group of Prosen people found the two people and wanted to shoot. As a result, a mortar shell happened to fall among them, and everyone was blown up.
The mortar of the Barras people seemed to be 80mm in caliber, and the power was very considerable.
Jonard continued to play the bagpipes, and walked towards the battalion building at the pace of the parade with a calm face.
The doctor stuck his head out from behind the pillars at the door of the building and looked at Jonard suspiciously.
When the two finally walked into the shelter of the roof of the building, the doctor asked: "What kind of evil magic is this?"
Joanard shrugged: "I don't know, maybe it's just probability. The mortar's landing point is relatively random, and it didn't randomly hit us."
The doctor's face was filled with four big words: I don't believe you.
Joanard: "Quick, radio!"
The doctor immediately woke up: "Yes, radio! We have already called by radio, but the Ants are too far away, and the radio can't call, so we must use the radio!"
Martin called the two people who were about to go in, and said solemnly: "I can indeed send a message, but I can only create a code."
Doctor: "There is no problem with plain text. Plain text also saves the time of decoding. Plain text is very good at this time! Just create a code!"
Martin: "You said it! If there is a leak or it is investigated later, you will be responsible!"
"I will be responsible." The doctor patted his chest.

(During the update of Chapter 27, due to an operation error, the historical version was updated, and a scene switching section was missing, so many people felt that this section of the Komanda Commando was a bit abrupt. You can go back and read Chapter 27. The correct section has been updated. This position in this chapter just connects to the last scene switching screen of Chapter 27)
At the same time, the Ant Expeditionary Force Headquarters.
Wang Zhong was talking to Amelia: "Your anti-air shooting is really good. If you hadn't shot down one of the two enemy planes and scared away the other, the headquarters would have suffered heavy losses."
At this time, Katyusha said unconvinced: "I can shoot down the enemy plane without her! These cunning Prosins actually flew at super low altitudes and hid out of my sight!"
The magic arrow guided by the little Katyusha (Ekaterina's nickname) can continue to track the enemy even if it is out of sight until it hits.
Of course, this is not unavoidable. If the Proson pilot has received experience in shooting air-to-air missiles from third-generation aircraft and knows how to use F-POLE maneuvers to continuously consume the kinetic energy of the "missile", he may be able to avoid it.
Just maybe, after all, the performance of propeller aircraft is much different from that of third-generation fighter jets. Maybe after using F-POLE to dodge the magic arrow, it has no kinetic energy and can only be slapped on the ground.
In short, enemy aircraft that enter Katyusha's field of vision will be unable to escape as long as they are targeted by the magic arrow.
But that would require the enemy plane to enter Katyusha's field of vision first.
The enemy plane that attacked this time did not enter Emilia's field of vision until it gave up the attack and turned away. The little one did not see the two BF110s in the whole process, and naturally could not guide the divine arrow to attack.
Emilia looked at Katyusha: "Your divine arrows have too many limitations when fighting against low-flying enemy aircraft, so I will take the initiative to shoot in the air. Without me, many staff members would have died. I think you should be honest." It's better to thank me, because it is your duty to protect the expeditionary force headquarters."
The little one pouted.
Just as Wang Zhong was about to smooth things over, the communications staff officer ran over with a telegram: "General! Report! We received a clear telegram that the Comanda troops were attacked by a large number of Barras troops at the Finney Valley Bridge and are in danger."
"What?" Wang Zhong rushed over, grabbed the telegram, and said while reading, "This is such a thing. How dare the Barras troops fight against Comanda?"
The telegram said two things. First, the Comanda had defeated the Piplosan army guarding the bridge and occupied the bridge. Second, the Baras army, which had retreated, suddenly returned to attack the Komanda troops occupying the bridge. .
The enemy has mortars, and Komanda, who only has small arms and close combat equipment, is in critical condition.
After Wang Zhong finished reading, he handed the telegram to Pavlov, who was approaching, and asked: "Can the 51st Army set off tonight?"
Pavlov glanced at the telegram, confirmed the situation and handed it to Popov. At the same time, he replied: "No. Even if the 51st Army is ready, I don't recommend setting off now. There is still a long way to go before the defeat of Prosen." If we march at night, we may be attacked by the Prossen people.
"In addition, we don't know if there are Prossens waiting in the two villages along the way. We can't set off until dawn! At that time, the visibility is good, and the air force can be sent to investigate the two villages on the way."
Wang Zhong: "But the Komanda troops may not be able to hold on until noon tomorrow. They are elites, but there are too few people, and they are not good at this kind of frontal combat. We must go out to rescue them now and rush to Finland in three hours. Ni Valley!”
Pavlov: "Are you going to bet with your soldier's life that there will be no enemies along the way?"
Wang Zhong thought for a while and said, "I personally command the rescue team!"
Pavlov: "No, does it make any difference other than that it puts you in danger too?"
Wang Zhong: "Believe me! The troops I lead will never be ambushed or raided by the enemy!"
Because the enemy will be highlighted if it approaches within two and a half kilometers, a sneak attack? nonexistent.
Emilia: "This is really unreasonable confidence! No, although Komanda is the elite of our United Kingdom, I am opposed to such an unreasonable rescue operation that puts the commander of the expeditionary force in danger!"
"I think it's okay." Popov suddenly said, looking at Wang Zhong, "I think it's okay. The general will not make such stupid mistakes. He has amazing battlefield intuition. I believe he will not be ambushed."
Pavlov pondered for a while and sighed: "I believe it too. Then General, you will personally lead the rescue team and set off immediately to rescue the Komanda troops fighting on the Fenni Valley Bridge."
Wang Zhong slapped his thigh: "Okay! I've long wanted to go tank racing."
Pavlov narrowed his eyes: "I knew you just wanted to be a tank."
Emilia: "You are the chief of staff, you cannot agree to the coach's unreasonable decision!"
"No," Pavlov shook his head, "Miss Emilia, when I was the staff officer of the Third Amur Regiment, I fought with the general. He does have amazing battlefield insights. He personally led the troops. Only He sneaks up on others, and no one sneaks up on him."
Popov also echoed: "I know this makes no sense, but... we secularists are pragmatic and seek truth from facts. The facts are here, so we can't help but not believe them."
Emilia looked at the two bears (referring to Popov and Pavlov) suspiciously, and then looked at Wang Zhong suspiciously.
Then she said: "Okay, then I will follow. If it is a night melee, my abilities will also come in handy. I will become a machine gunner who makes the enemy fearful."
That's true. You don't rely on your eyesight to shoot a machine gun, you rely on your superpowers.
Wang Zhong: "That's it, form a commando team immediately, led by my No. 422 tank. Gregory, bring me my red flag!"
