Chapter 1662: People’s joys and sorrows are not the same
Raphael led the crew members into the block, and then directly ran into the dragon soldiers who were repairing. The two sides were on the verge of a battle.
Raphael and his men opened fire first. Although they only had three guns, they could not lose in momentum!
The other party was stunned for a moment. They obviously did not expect Raphael to be so brave!
If you weren't brothers, how dare you three launch a fierce attack?
The dragon soldiers were stunned, but they were still stunned.
They immediately took up their weapons and fought against the Wehrmacht.
A fight broke out between the two sides instantly.
Raphael threw a grenade directly and then fled with the soldiers.
They were already outnumbered, so it would be unwise to fight head-on at this time.
At this time, finding a favorable situation is the best solution.
Raphael had been observing this area for a long time and had discovered that there was a tall building in this block.
The tall building overlooks a large area of the surrounding area.
Without any hesitation, Raphael immediately led his men to capture the building.
Then prepare to fight to the end in prison.
The three did not choose to endure the debt in the stairwell, but chose to go to the roof and block the stairwell exit.
And Raphael also found an RPG inside the tank.
It means gaining enhanced firepower.
Raphael and the other two wanted to fight to the death on the rooftop.
But the opponent obviously didn't give Raphael any chance.
After confirming that Raphael had escaped to the roof, the three immediately launched a siege.
Don't give Raphael any chance at all.
Feeling the movement coming from downstairs, Raphael looked at his men and sighed.
"To be honest, I knew we couldn't complete this mission, but I still chose to accept it.
It’s not that I don’t care about the lives of my men, but there are things we have to do.”
Looking at his two men, Raphael felt mixed emotions.
There were only three of them left in the Tank Cards, and they were trapped on the rooftop. The outcome was obvious...
"Platoon leader, do you think we can get back alive?"
Raphael was silent after hearing this, and spoke after a long time.
"I have no idea……"
Raphael's words completely broke the camel's back.
Even the usually calm gunner fell silent.
The gunner is a veteran who has fought many battles. He was already a gunner when the first batch of tanks appeared.
However, due to some injuries he suffered later, he was unable to engage in high-intensity combat and therefore withdrew from the armored division.
Although the treatment of the infantry division is not as good as that of the armored division, it is not bad either.
Moreover, the tank units of the infantry divisions do not need to engage in high-intensity combat.
The strength of armored shells is far less than that of armored forces.
That's why the gunner was able to stay.
Otherwise, he would have been demobilized and transferred to another job long ago.
"Old John, you're almost 30 this year, right? It seems you have a girlfriend?"
Raphael tried to change the subject.
"Yes, there is one, but she doesn't like me..."
The man known as Old John spoke.
Although old John is only 29 years old, he already looks very weathered.
According to Raphael's understanding, Old John is a legitimate soldier of the Holy Empire.
It once fought against the Orc Empire's southward advance.
Later, he was implicated because he advocated the Northern Expedition.
After all, Edward III had lost his ambition.
These patriotic soldiers naturally became victims.
Old John later came to the Territory of Sin, although it was very poor.
But here, without all the intrigue, it is the only paradise and the pure place that countless people yearn for.
No one knows what exactly happened to Old John. All we know is that he was only 16 years old when he came to the Territory of Sin.
But he has already won the highest honor for the soldiers of the Holy Empire, the Order of the Knight of Apocalypse.
Later, the Wehrmacht was established, and Old John joined the Wehrmacht after the Winter of Divine Punishment and joined the 1st Armored Division.
With his outstanding military qualities and learning ability, he became an armored soldier in the 1st Armored Division.
And participated in the defense of the capital of the Elf Empire.
By then he was already a gunner.
Now he is also a gunner, but he no longer has the same high spirits as before.
Instead, I feel a bit sad every day.
But once the battle begins, his face will instantly switch to a serious one.
Among all the tank cards, Old John is the most mysterious one.
"Why didn't I take a fancy to you? You're the winner of the Gold Medal!"
Raphael looked confused.
"Because I'm a cripple! I was born a warrior, I don't know any other skills at all!
She is the daughter of a noble! How dare you, a poor man, mislead her?
I joined the army at the age of 14 and followed Marshal Ketis to resist the Orc Empire. I almost became a Violet Knight.
I also made many contributions and was awarded the Knight Medal of the Apocalypse. At that time, I thought I was at the peak of my life.
I met her when I was at my most ambitious, but she was a daughter of destiny, a genuine granddaughter of a duke...
But I was a young and naive person at that time. I was also dazzled by the so-called Knight of the Apocalypse Medal and thought I had the strength to declare my love to her...
In the end, I was kicked out by his fiancé, and the marshal couldn't save me.
The reason I said I was expelled from the Holy Empire's upper echelons was simply to protect my pride...
In fact, I am a person who was driven out by the nobles...
I have never returned to the Holy Empire since then, because I know I am not qualified to go back. I am just an ordinary soldier. It’s not that I don’t want to see her, but I simply don’t have the capital.
Later, the leader's National Defense Force gave me an opportunity, and I wanted to change the status quo.
So I decisively joined the National Defense Forces, and I worked hard to make achievements just to be able to stand out.
But I'm not smart enough to become an officer!
Later, during the defense of the Elven Empire's capital, the tank I was in was destroyed by demon soldiers, and I became a cripple...
Even though I later won the gold medal, I still couldn't change the fact that I was lame.
The army tried to assign me to a factory more than once, but I refused.
It’s not that I don’t know how to adapt, nor that I don’t love money, it’s just that I know that if I leave the army, I will become a complete waste!
Do you know that feeling of despair? I originally thought I could see her through my own efforts, but ever since I became lame and was transferred to the infantry division, I've been getting further and further away from my dream, and ultimately I can only accept my mediocrity.
But I don't want to! Because I want to appear in front of her with dignity!
I, John Alex, don't want to live a mediocre life!"
John practically shouted as he finished speaking.
This is the deepest secret he has buried in his heart.
He has been keeping it in his heart all these years, which can be said to be a mental drain on him.
The feeling that he couldn't catch up no matter how hard he tried made him feel helpless.
But he can't change the world.
Because he is just an ordinary person...
