Battle of the Third Reich Chapter 152: End
Arab fighters are only loyal to the tribe that gave birth to them. This rule has not changed for thousands of years. Even though there have been several heroes in the Arabian Peninsula in history, this tradition cannot be reversed. The caliphs in history did not hesitate to spend a lot of money to build a private army fully loyal to them as a guarantee of force to maintain their rule. The once prestigious Mamluk was originally established for this purpose. In the eyes of the Caliph, these slaves were more loyal than the warriors in the tribe.
The members of Adil’s guards are all warriors of the tribe. He only paid some weapons and military salaries. So when the warriors find that the objects of allegiance have abandoned themselves and fled, you can imagine what these people would be like at the time. Kind of entangled emotions.
The German machine guns were still humming, and bullets swept across the wilderness like swarms of migratory locusts, overturning a majestic Arabian war horse, and taking away the lives of Bedouin warriors one after another.
The Arab cavalry, who lost their command and morale, were in a panic. There were more than a dozen soldiers who responded quickly, immediately following their administrative officer, turning their horses’ heads and fleeing towards the mountains to the east. There was a small rocky hill one or two hundred meters away from the highway. If you run there, you can escape. attack.
The fighters who were relatively slow to react, when they realized that the situation was not right, they were already too far forward to turn around and retreat. So some people roared desperately and continued to charge forward, and part of their morale The completely broken soldier chose to jump off his horse, kneel and raise his hand to beg for forgiveness from the enemy.
There was chaos in front of the German position. Because there was no unified command, several units were actually fighting on their own. No one would stop their weapons before receiving a definite ceasefire order.
The Bedouin cavalry who continued to charge the Germans quickly lost their lives. They did not break the guard distance of 15 meters in front of the German position until their deaths. When the Battle of Yanbu City was over, the German army carefully cleaned up the dead cavalry bodies on the battlefield, only to find that many Bedouin cavalry’s saddle bags contained German-made M1918 grenades. Many people on the German front were scared into a cold sweat by the possible consequences.
These grenades were produced during the First World War in Germany. They were obviously captured by the Ottoman army that year. Germany once supported the Ottomans with a large number of light weapons and munitions. As a result, after the war ended, these materials were all cheaper for those Arab tribes.
The reason why Adile fled was mainly because he found that he had far underestimated the enemy's strength. The opponent was not only the armored cars, but also the follow-up infantry units. And the firepower of these people far exceeds that of any army he has ever seen.
The administrative officer has determined that this is not an enemy he can fight against. Although I don’t know how sacred these troops are, they are obviously not directed at him personally. These troops should be preparing to attack Yanbu City, and they are just A poor worm who bumped into the iron plate recklessly.
Adile asked himself that apart from the Italian expedition, he had not offended any Westerners. He had seen British troops. These people were obviously not Italians. If he was right, what he faced was An invasion against Saudi Arabia, if the Saudi royal family is defeated in the war, this land will have another owner.
Adile rode his horse all the way, and finally rushed to the stone hills. These are the continuation of the Hanzhi Mountains to the sea. Most of the stone hills are buried in yellow sand, and only a small area at the top is affected by the sea breeze. Blow, revealing the dark rock muscle.
Rushing to the foot of the largest rock mound, Adile rolled over and rolled off the saddle, and then rolled to the top of the mound. He remembered that there was a natural cave there, enough to hold a dozen people, he Be prepared to stay there to avoid the enemy. Adile believes that the target of these invaders is Yanbu City and should not stay on the battlefield for too long. He only needs to squat quietly in the cave and wait for the invaders to leave automatically. As for what to do in the future, Adil has no time to think about it. The tribal forces have lost most of the losses here. The loss of Yanbu Port is a foregone conclusion. When he chose to abandon the guards and escape alone, he was destined to be unable to continue to be a chief, because He abandoned his compatriots and gave up his responsibilities.
As Adile was climbing up the mountain, there was a sudden burst of messy gunfire on a rocky hill on the side. The administrative officer looked up in panic, but found that five Bedouin soldiers in guard robes were lying on the top of a rock mound, shooting at the enemy several hundred meters away.
"This group of idiots are really going to be killed by them." Adile turned around angrily and began to climb down the mountain. This place has been exposed. These guys will definitely attract the enemy. You can't run away obediently, why didn't I realize that there was such an idiot under his men.
"Ali! McKid! Nordin! Assal! Abdul!" The administrative officer panting and shouting the names of his subordinates, while struggling to climb the hill.
"Captain, it's Lord Adil." A cavalry turned his head and saw their commander.
"Leave this dastardly coward and keep shooting. I must avenge my brother Mahmati." The leader of the ten captain Ali said loudly.
Ali’s brain has always been useful since he was a child. From the beginning of the cavalry charge, he has watched every move of the administrative officer. It’s not that he was wary of Adil. It’s true that he has been following the officer these days. Can do meritorious service.
So when Adil ran away, Ali was also one of the first few people to react. He didn't think much about it at the time, just greeted his brother Mehmet and chased Adil from behind. .
The only regret left in Ali's chest is the decision he made that killed his brother who was dependent on him. If Adil fled single-handedly, it would not attract much attention from the German army, but if a dozen cavalry fled to the east together, of course the German army would not let them go easily. These cavalrymen were fired by Randolph's SS. When they finally reached the hilly area, only five of a dozen cavalrymen, including Ali, escaped.
Mahmet’s mount was shot down by a machine gun. Before he could struggle out of the saddle, a bullet pierced his head. Ali watched his younger brother, his brain burst in front of him, and his death was terrible.
The Bedouin warrior completely gave up the idea of escaping. At this moment, only revenge was left in his mind. Ali took the two soldiers from his ten-man team and immediately launched to the enemy after reaching the stone hill. Fighting back, although I don't know what the result was, it is clear that they successfully attracted the attention of the German army.
At this time, the gunfire on the battlefield has gradually ceased, and the elite Bedouin cavalry has been basically wiped out. More than one hundred and fifty people were killed immediately, and another twenty-three surrendered or were captured.
In the end, only Ali was left on the battlefield, still fighting tenaciously with the Germans. These five Bedouin fighters successfully attracted the attention of all the Germans.
"These people are a mob!" Sergeant Major Merkel paused for a while, then pulled the trigger of the sniper rifle. This sharpshooter would not know that he just killed Ali's brother Mehmet, if he fell into Ali's hands~IndoMTL.com~, he would be skinned alive by the opponent.
"They are dressed like the color of the rock, sir." A member of the Grey Swords crew held the **** of the MG40 machine gun and fired a long shot at the distant stone hill.
"This is the Saudi Arabian army? It really opened my eyes." Jurgen wiped the dirt on his face with his cuff, and reloaded the pistol with a magazine.
"No, these are just regular tribal weapons, Major." Captain Horn took out the lighter and lit the cigarette in his mouth.
"Stop shooting, the battle is over!" Horn raised his fist and gave orders to the SS officers.
The armored reconnaissance platoon is slowly approaching the stone hill, and two of the heavy armored vehicles are rounding to the back of the hill. These people on the stone hill have no way to escape.
