Chapter 35 Ambush in the Fog

The machine gun squad leader asked in confusion, "What's happened?"

The sergeant replied, "The artillery fire just now took out all our barbed wire in front of the position. It won't be fixed until dawn. If the enemy decides to attack while the fog is thick, they could just go right over the obstacles."

Andreas pondered, "Attack in this thick fog?"

"What? You think the fog sprites are going to kill the Ante people?" Just as Sergeant Kosolek finished speaking, they heard a distant cry of "Aku Tong" from within the fog, followed by a crackling sound.

Then someone shouted, "They've shot Hank!"

And then the explosiveness drowned out the curses.

Sergeant Kosolek opened fire, shouting as he did so, "The fog sprites won't throw bombs! The Ante are coming!"

The design of this machine-gun position completely abandoned aiming; the gunner only had to fire in short bursts and randomly swing the handle.

Andreas lay next to the sergeant, holding the ammo belt.
