He pulled the pin on the grenade and tossed it behind him as he began to sprint madly.
The sound of an explosion followed by screams.
Andreas ran past the soldiers under his command, pulling on one's arm: "Run, stop shooting! The Anteans are here, which means the Moravians have surrendered. The hills around us must be crawling with Ante Troops! Run! We must rendezvous with the main force to have any chance of breaking out."
The remaining five green recruits promptly followed his lead, and the group fled back along the way they had come.
The Anteans kept firing, there was no sound of gunfire, but bullets continuously hit the trees nearby making a cracking sound.
At that instant, the sound of an MG42 opening fire tore through the air.
The moment he heard it, Andreas's heart was put at ease; he knew the shooter had to be Kosolek.
Kosolek wouldn't let the Anteans kill his own — even though Kosolek had never made such a promise, Andreas was that certain.
