“The two officers were utterly stunned, and one staggered back against the far wall. Corwin took aim at the one holding the gun and fired two shots into his chest, killing him instantly. He turned the weapon on the other and put three into the centre of his body. He slumped down dead in front of Bossan, who could do nothing but stare at the brutality in his home. Footsteps of the two nearest soldiers on guard could be heard rushing towards them, and Bossan stood between them and him. Corwin leap...t for the entrance to the room as they entered. Both wore the field grey German uniforms he remembered from the movies, but also had torso body armour that seemed entirely anachronistic. He fired two shots into their chests, but neither got through. They were carrying large magazine fed assault rifles and both were being brought to bear on Corwin. He rushed towards them firing into the face of the nearest and grabbed hold of the muzzle of the rifle of the second. He pulled it aside, just as the soldier pulled the trigger, and fully automatic fire peppered the wall of the room.MoreLessRead More Read Less
