Surrounded by the Enemy II
Night soon descended as the sky was filled with darkness, and the stench of death permeated the small farming village where Andreas and his men had set up their line of defense. They were surrounded by an army of over a thousand Italian Soldiers, and they had less than a hundred able-bodied men at their disposal.
The Austrian Jaegers were running low on munitions, and most of them were wounded to some degree. One thing was sure; if they remained within this village, it would become their grave. Andreas was having a serious discussion with his two Lieutenants as they tried to come up with some plan to survive.
One of the men in question had his helmet in one of his hands and his rifle slung over his shoulder. His face was covered in dirt as he presented an idea to the other two officers.
