The two walked down the stairs and walked through a deep corridor, ending with a seemingly ordinary hatch.

The hatch door is not locked. When opened, it is neither a passage nor a cabin, but a space full of pipes and equipment. The dim cabin lights reflect the outlines of pipes and equipment, as well as simple walkways for single people to walk through.

Weiss noticed that there was a row of flashlights hanging on the hanger next to the hatch.

"We seem to be at the stern of the ship," Case whispered.

Hearing the Normans' voices and footsteps faintly from the cabin passage behind him, Weiss made a fuss: "Go, go in!"

Keith reached for the flashlight, but Weiss stopped him.

There is no flashlight on the hanger, which is clearly telling the enemy that someone is inside.

Besides, they are not going to inspect the pipeline equipment inside, so they need to have yarn for flashlights?

The two quickly entered the space filled with the smell of engine oil, closed the hatch door with their backhand, and then the dim cabin lights fumbled forward.

"From the direction and distance we are traveling, we should be at the stern of the ship now." Weiss responded to Keith's previous words.

Case asked, "We are hiding here, should we wait for the enemy to relax our guard before going out, or wait until the brothers come to pick us up?"

The countermeasures that were discussed by Weiss and Captain Hartbauer at the stern of the ship and the ground forces quickly boarded the ship were the countermeasures that Weiss and Captain Hartbauer decided to judge the situation, and Case followed Lieutenant Ralph to board the ship, so he had no idea about it. It was not surprising that such a question was asked at this time.

Weiss explained his vision to him as fast as possible.

"I understand." Keith responded readily, "As you tell me everything."

The idea is simple and clear, but Weiss has to scratch his head what to say in detail. He lacked understanding of the structure of the Norman warship. Although he had made up a lot of common sense about warships during those days with Nicholas, he found that this was far from enough when he got on the battlefield. The auxiliary thruster of the warship has very obvious external features and he will not admit his mistakes even if he closes his eyes, but what does its corresponding internal structure look like? What are its characteristics? How to blast to achieve the effect? ​​Weiss has no clear concept at all.

Just when Weis was in trouble, a burst of rapid footsteps came from outside the hatch. Weiss and Keith quickly stopped and pointed their guns at the hatch.

With a creaking sound, the cabin door was opened from outside, and the yellow light of the cabin light came in from outside.

Weiss narrowed his eyes and the virtual frames in front of him were all dazzling red.

Sure enough, I can't escape...

Seeing the figures rushing in with guns, Weiss opened fire without hesitation.

The caliber of the Norman rifle was slightly smaller than that of the Grumman rifle, but its execution and lethality were not inferior at all. The Norman soldiers standing at the door of the cabin fell down, shouting and shouting outside, followed by the banging gunshots. Weiss and Keith did not continue to shoot, but moved quickly in.

In this maze-like place, there are upward or downward steps and simple vertical ladders, which are definitely a good place to hide and hide, but at this moment, Weiss and his partner are not playing hide-and-seek with their opponents, but are engaged in a life-and-death battle. The Norman soldiers who rushed in seemed to be not worried at all that they would destroy the pipeline equipment here, and chased their "prey" without any scruples. The crisscrossing pipeline equipment blocked the Normans' bullets and restricted the use of pineapple bullets, but also made it difficult for Weiss and Keith to shoot the enemy accurately. Instead, they would expose their positions every time they fired. As time went by, the two gradually retreated to a corner with no way out, while the Norman soldiers were still coming!

Seeing that there was no hope of breaking through, and whether to fight to the death or surrender, Weiss suddenly hesitated: If he died, this strange journey like a dream came to an abrupt end, and he would go to the next dream, or fall into the endless void? If he survived and became a prisoner of the Normans, could he survive, wait for his comrades to rescue, or end the war in the prisoner-in-arms camp, or die at the gun of the Normans?

In an instant, Weiss remembered many people, those who had had an interaction with him in this world, Nikola from the first family, Bella, a cold outside and warm inside, a taciturn cheap dad, a fat and friendly cheap mom, a cunning and worldly fat vice president, a friend of the Baston Military Academy, a boss of the Grumman family, an iceberg beauty Octavell, and a sound of nature Guneville... This is a world full of punk elements, with both Victorian tastes and American freedom and romance. Everything is about to end in a hurry before it begins, what a pity!

Case next to him was obviously not as complicated as Weiss. Seeing that he could not avoid it, he found a place where the pipes were connected, put down his backpack, took out the remaining pineapple and bullets, and was ready to give it a try.

Such a spirit of looking at death made Weis who was wandering without hesitation. He quickly found a position to cross-cover with Case and took out all the weapons and ammunition. In a blink of an eye, several Norman soldiers appeared around the corner. They saw the two federal soldiers who had nowhere to escape at first sight. Without any words or actions to persuade them to surrender, they aimed and shot at them directly.

Weiss and Keith opened fire first, and shot the same Norman soldier. The remaining Normans opened fire quickly, and the bullets were blocked by the pipes in front of the two. Seeing that the situation was at a disadvantage, the Norman soldiers immediately dispersed and looked for their own positions. In this way, Weiss and Keith could not shoot the enemy. In this way, they exchanged fire in such a closed cabin. The use of pineapple bombs may kill the enemy while accidentally hurting themselves. Now it is the last moment. They no longer worry about these things. They threw out pineapple bombs one after another, and the violent explosion overturned several Norman soldiers, but they also made their eardrums hurt and their blood was rolling.

The pineapple delayed the Norman attack, but could not repel them. The aftermath of the explosion dissipated, and more Norman soldiers appeared in Weiss and Keith's sight. They held rifles, lowered their bodies, alternately covered, and advanced step by step, showing a complete tacit understanding.

After using up all the pineapple bullets that were not many, Weiss and Keith had to use the Norman rifle to shoot. However, in this special positional battle mode, they made one of five attacks, which could not stop the Norman soldiers from approaching. At this time, the Normans could only end the battle directly as long as they threw a pineapple bullet, but they did not do so.

"They seem to want to catch them alive!" Case said loudly, "Sir, the Normans will never be polite to prisoners. If I can't slap myself at the last moment, please help me!"

Weiss put down his rifle, pulled out his pistol, turned to look at Case: "Whether they want to catch live or are worried about blowing up the facilities here, I can be sure that they don't plan to use pineapple bullets."

After all the bullets in the bullet bay, Case no longer loaded it in, but threw the rifle to the ground and pulled out the two guns from the holster: "Two on the left, three on the right, and four on the distance. Let's fight them back, how about?"

Weiss squinted and looked at it. Keith's observation was not accurate. There were 14 Norman soldiers nearby, 3 on the left, 4 on the right, and 7 on the right. As long as they leave their current position and rush out, they will be aimed at at least five or six rifles at the same time. Relying on five or six Norman soldiers to miss the battle at the same time? Hope is slim!

"Don't be impulsive!" Weiss quickly said to Case, "The enemy is waiting for us to rush out! Keep calm, be sure to keep calm. The longer we drag them, the more beneficial it is to the overall battle."

But Case stared at him: "Drag? Even if it is ten or twenty minutes, what's the use? Why not have a happy time!"

Weiss sighed: "Sorry, brother, I brought you to this dead end, but we cannot give up until we have no choice! Never give up! Outside, the brothers are still attacking, we will definitely win this battle! We will definitely win!"

Although such comfort and encouragement could not change the situation of the two, at least it made Case more rational and less impulsive. After changing into the pistol, the two of them shot one by one, sometimes shot one after another, echoing each other, and the effective hit rate was improved. The Norman soldiers who were hit by the pistol bullets were not at risk of their lives, but they lost their composure due to injuries. They were furious and rushed and attacked violently, thus giving Weiss and Case an opportunity to take advantage of it. They worked together to quickly kill or severely damage the three Norman soldiers, temporarily curbing the Norman offensive from the scene and momentum.

When Weiss squinted his eyes again to detect the enemy situation around him, the situation suddenly changed somewhat strangely: the nearby Norman soldiers increased, but the green virtual frame also entered the field of view. Moreover, the nearest Union soldiers were absolutely no further away than some Norman soldiers.

Weiss wondered, and then a sudden light of inspiration appeared and suddenly realized.

"Our people are outside here!" he shouted to Case, "they have reached the stern of the ship, only a few dozen feet away from us!"

"What?" Case looked surprised.

Weiss pointed to the bulkhead behind him: "Believe me, they are outside, and..."

"And what?" Case asked loudly.

Weiss narrowed his eyes, and an extremely complicated expression appeared on his face. Then he exclaimed: "They are ready to explode! They are going to explode at the tail of the ship! Blast a hole that can enter!"

"My God..." Case widened his eyes, "If you guessed it right, we'd better find a way to leave here, otherwise we'll be killed by our own people! This way of death is too ironic!"

Weiss turned back to his normal vision and turned his head to look forward. The Normans did not realize what was about to happen. They blocked the corner tightly, with at least ten rifles aiming at Weiss and Keith's hiding positions. Not to mention leaving, even if they stretched out their heads, they would be instantly blasted.

Communicate with the Normans, everyone first evacuated this dangerous area before continuing to fight? It would be strange if they believe it!

When Weiss squinted his eyes again to see the situation outside the bulkhead, the green virtual frames moved to the distance, leaving behind a dazzling red object.

"Good luck! Case!" Weiss murmured.

After a moment, nine Norman soldiers divided into three groups and approached step by step from three directions towards the place where the two federal soldiers were in. They held Norman rifles, their sharp bayonets shining with cold light, and their eyes were even colder than the tip of the blade. They were getting closer and closer to the target, their muscles were tense, ready to rush forward regardless of the bullets. At this moment, their sensory world was as if swallowed by a black hole, and there was nothing in an instant...
