Soldier’s  Warfare

“Guys! Get under cover!” yelled Jack. Gun fire was whizzing past our heads. Most of their comrades were still shooting at the enemy.

“There are too many! GET DOWN!!!” shouted Jack.

“AAAAAGH!!!”. A man had 3 bullet holes through his helmet and head. He laid there motionless.

“We need more ammo!” yelled Paul.

“No, we don’t. We need more men to survive!” replied Jack. Two more men were shot down.

“Keep on fighting, men! GRENADE!!!” yelled the general. The battle in Austria was a massacre. The 1940’s were horrible times for war. Shells, gas, guns and bullets, all of them created chaos. Spitfires & Messerschmitt were shooting each other down, which crashed into the battle field.

Most of it was too much for some soldiers. But not Jack. He was a really bad fighter. He cared for his comrades. He did not care about how much a bad mo they have. He cared for how many lives were at stake, friend or foe. This war started at a game of chess. Yes, a game of chess. The competitors were the Queen of England and the Emperor of Austria. The Queen of England won, but at that time, the Emperor was an extremely sore loser. He declared war toward the Queen. She knew her forces would win, But it was quite even in this war.

At the base, Jack and Paul were thinking of a plan.

“These Austrians are too strong to attack head on. They have the weaponry, ammo and men.” said Paul.

“But they are completely defenceless from the back. The Emperor is horrible at defence. Probably why he lost at the game of chess.” said Jack. They talked till 2200 and in the morning, they told the general their plan.

“This strategy might actually work. Where will we get all of these materials though?” asked the general.

“I saw a village a few kilometres back. We can get enough resources in about 3 hours.” answered Paul.

The next morning, they placed scarecrows down on the ground at 0330. They put guns and uniforms on them to make them look like soldiers. Then they connected string to each of the triggers, so one soldier can pull the string and they act as the are shooting. In two hours, the Austrians woke up and saw many men pointing their guns at their direction.

“FIRE AT WILL!” yelled the Austrian general. The men started shooting down the “soldiers”, and the “soldiers” started shooting at them. Surprisingly, none of them fell down and they killed 20 people at the most.

“They are invincible!” yelled some Austrian soldiers. They were not expecting dozens of soldiers coming from behind, killing them with knives and guns. After a few minutes, nearly all Austrians were dead, and the survivors were taken hostage. Jack and Paul were declared heroes.
