CHAPTER XXXVICTORY
Appalled by the fury in the face of Sergeant Bowers, the Germans retreated along the wall, two to one as they were.
“Nail ’em, Timothy!” shouted Bowers to the marine who was nearest him.
Timothy grinned and pulled the trigger of his rifle again. The other marines also poured a volley into the compact ranks of the foe. Three Germans dropped.
“Good boy!” yelled Bowers. “At ’em again!”
With wild cries, the Germans broke and fled for the steps at the end of the hall. Up these they climbed pell-mell.
“After ’em, men!” shouted Bowers. “I’ll lick the man who lets one of ’em get away!”
Up the steps after the Germans piled the marines.
At the top of the stairs, the Germans turned and poured a volley into the marines. One man staggered, but recovered himself and went forward again. At the end of the hall was a small ladder which led to the roof of the building. Fear lent wings to the Germans, who shot up the ladder with swiftness and dispatch. There was a loud bang as the trap door above was dropped into place even as Bowers’ head would have passed through the opening. The result was that Bowers bumped his head against the door.
“Drat ’em!” exclaimed the sergeant. “They’ve got clear. Well, we’ve got to get ’em; that’s all there is about that. Timothy, you and the others hop out of here and head ’em off if they try to get down through the house to the left. I’ll stay here in case they come back this way.”
“But——” began Timothy.
“You heard me, didn’t you?” demanded Bowers angrily. “Who’s the sergeant here, I want to know, huh?”
“All right. It’s your funeral,” said Timothy with a shrug. “Come on, fellows.”
He led the way from the house.
Meanwhile, Hal and his men, who had entered the house to the right of that in which Sergeant Bowers now stood guard alone, had encountered stiff opposition within. They found the Germans outnumbered them greatly, but Hal was not disposed to give up.
The Germans, of course, were not able to make sure of the number of the Americans and for this reason they retreated upstairs when the front door was knocked in. They fired at the first head to show itself in the opening, but not a bullet struck home.
From the second floor, these Germans also climbed to the roof and closed the trap-door, thus balking Hal and his men of their prey.
“They went up,” said Hal. “They’ll have to come down some time.”
“They may pass on to the next house and go down that way, sir,” one of the men suggested.
“They’ll find Sergeant Bowers there,” replied Chester significantly.
“They may go the other way, sir.”
“They can’t,” said Hal. “I noticed as we came in that there are only three houses whose roofs are close enough to be jumped. The only danger of our losing them is that they will pass the next house and descend in the one at the end. You men get out of here quick and guard the end house.”
“You mean to stay here alone, sir?”
“Exactly,” said Hal. “Now hurry.”
“Guess I’ll try it,” he said at last.
The men waited no longer.
For some moments Hal stood quietly at the foot of the ladder debating whether he should await the return of the Germans there or whether he should risk a shot and open the trap door.
He mounted the ladder rapidly and cautiously pushed up the trap-door. A strange sight met his eyes.
A dozen figures sprang from the farthest building to the one next to the lad. Behind them came three or four American marines. Hal realized at once that Sergeant Bowers had taken the same precautions he had to prevent the escape of the enemy and had sent his men, or some of them, into the far house.
The foremost German caught sight of Hal’s head and with a cry stopped short on the roof of the middle building.
“Down this way!” he cried, and lifted the trap-door of the building on which he stood.
He leaped down. Others piled after him.
“Going to be quite a scrap there,” muttered Hal. “Guess I’d better take a hand.”
With no thought of the risk he was running, he sprang to the roof and dashed toward the enemy. From the last of the three houses, the marines also advanced on the run.
At the foot of the ladder where he had stationed himself, Sergeant Bowers was not caught unprepared when the trap-door was flung suddenly open and the first German leaped down.
“Thought you’d be back,” he muttered.
His fist shot out as the German reached the floor and the man dropped in his tracks.
“One!” said the sergeant with a half smile. “Next!”
But the Germans came down the ladder so swiftly now that Sergeant Bowers was smothered beneath them. In vain he struck out right and left. Two men went down under his sledge-hammer blows, but the enemy arrived faster than Bowers could dispose of them.
Directly the sergeant found himself at bay, fully a dozen Germans circling about him with ugly gleams in their eyes.
It seemed that the foes had run short of ammunition; otherwise Bowers must surely have perished where he stood before help could reach him. But no shot was fired. Nevertheless, the Germans were armed with knives and daggers, while Bowers had no weapons save his two great fists.
It was apparent, however, that the cowardly foes had a wholesome respect for these fists. Each appeared afraid to close in—each waited for the next man to strike the first blow. Sergeant Bowers stood with his back to the wall and taunted them.
“Come on, you cowards!” he called. “Come in here and meet an American marine!”
The Germans muttered angrily, but no man seemed anxious to be the first to attack.
Still, it was plain to Sergeant Bowers that they must attack soon or be caught like rats in a trap. The position where the sergeant stood at bay had a certain advantage; for the Germans to reach the steps leading to the floor below it would be necessary to pass within a few feet of him. And Sergeant Bowers had decided with himself that he would never allow the Germans to pass there while he remained alive.
The Germans now began to realize the need of haste; and this haste became greater as a marine came sliding down the ladder from the roof. With bellows of fury they sprang upon Sergeant Bowers and the new arrival.
The sergeant and the private fought as best they could. They struck out right and left with all their strength.
But gradually they felt themselves being pushed back. Bowers felt a slight pain in his left forearm as a knife found its mark. A moment later a shining blade grazed his forehead. With an angry bellow, the sergeant sprang into the very midst of his foes.
It was at this moment that Hal reached the opening in the roof and came scrambling down to the aid of the hard-pressed Americans below. From the roof of the adjoining building, the other marines now streamed to join the fight.
Realizing that the game was up in this direction, the Germans turned to flee. Bowers and the first marine to come to his assistance had been forced to give ground enough to permit the enemy the access of the stairs leading to the ground floor.
Down these the Germans dashed madly, each man upbraiding the other for blocking his progress. At the bottom of the stairs, they hurried toward the broken front door.
Even as the first man would have stepped out, a figure in khaki appeared in the doorway, a revolver in his hand.
It was Chester, who, now that the enemy had been driven from Chateau Thierry, had come to make sure of the safety of Hal and his companions.
“Hah!” cried the foremost German, and stopped dead in his tracks.
“Hands up!” cried Chester in German.
Instead of obeying this command, however, the Germans inside turned quickly and dashed into a room on the first floor. Quickly they locked and barred the door before either Chester or the Americans descending from above could halt them.
Chester stopped before this door. His eyes searched the steps at the end of the hall down which the marines, headed by Bowers, now ran.
“Hal!” he cried.
“All right,” came his chum’s voice from above. “I’m here, but don’t you let those fellows get away.”
“Not a chance,” laughed Chester as Hal, Bowers and the others came up to him. “They’re in this room here, and I guess they’ll stay there until they get ready to surrender.”
“But the windows?” suggested Sergeant Bowers.
“Guarded,” replied Chester briefly. “By Jove, sergeant! You look like you had been in a fight.”
“So I have, sir,” declared the sergeant grimly, “but if you’ll bother to go to the top of yonder steps you’ll find half a dozen men who look a whole lot worse than I do.”
“I’ve no doubt of it, sergeant,” laughed Chester. “But you’d better have those wounds dressed.”
“Not until we’ve rounded up the gang in there, sir,” said Sergeant Bowers, pointing.
“Well, that should be simple enough,” declared Hal. “Break in the door, men!”
Three marines laid their shoulders to the door and heaved lustily. There was the sound of splintering wood, and the door flew open. The marines dropped hastily to the floor, anticipating a volley of rifle bullets, but no such volley came.
Instead, Hal and Chester, looking into the room, beheld an amusing sight.
Facing the door, their hands high above their heads, their faces bearing every appearance of the utmost terror, were twelve Germans, the sole survivors of the enemy force that had defended the two houses now in the possession of the marines.
Their faces blanched as Hal, Chester and Sergeant Bowers took a step forward.
“Kamerad!” they cried. “Kamerad! Kamerad!”
It was the work of only a few minutes to make prisoners of these men, after which, under guard, they were marched out and turned over to the proper authorities.
The fighting in Chateau Thierry had ceased. The duel of big guns still raged, but the American mastery of Chateau Thierry and the whole of Belleau Woods no longer could be disputed.
It was 10 o’clock that night when Hal and Chester found themselves alone in their temporary quarters in Chateau Thierry.
“Well, we went through ’em, old boy,” said Hal quietly.
“Of course,” said Chester. “And from this time we’ll go through ’em almost at will. And it was the Prussian Guard we licked. Think of that! The pride of the German emperor—the best troops he boasted.”
“Mark my words,” said Hal, “while the fighting is by no means over, this is the beginning of the end. We’ve met the best the enemy had to offer and it wasn’t good enough. They’ve lost thousands upon thousands. Their morale is shattered at last. Oh, they’ll probably fight on and on, but from this time forward there can be no doubt of the ultimate result.”
“Right.” Chester agreed. “As our friend Bowers would say, ‘They’re through!’”
And, as it developed, the lads were right. It was at Chateau Thierry that American marines struck the blow that broke the backbone of German resistance. However, there was to be more severe fighting and in it both Hal and Chester were to play their parts. Their later adventures will be found in a succeeding volume, entitled, “The Boy Allies with the Great Advance; or, Driving the Foe Through France and Belgium.”
