The decisive battle against the Third Reich

Qin Chuan crawled back to the trench with his men. The moment they returned to the trench, everyone was paralyzed in the trench and could only breathe.

"Well done, Second Lieutenant!" Bazel said: "It seems that I was right to ask you to go out and 'block the position'. If we let others go, we would probably be overwhelmed by those Greeks by now!"

Qin Chuan knew what Bazel meant. What he feared most in the dark was close combat and melee. The battle just now was actually Qin Chuan and others using mines and defenses to push the Greeks hard for a while in front of the position, and then Only the German main force's machine guns, mortars and other firepower can be effective.

But Qinchuan's platoon also suffered heavy losses. They lost eight soldiers in this battle, leaving Qinchuan's platoon with only eleven people, and all of them were injured. Qinchuan's left arm I don't know when a piece of shrapnel was embedded... This often happens when you are injured on the battlefield. Even if you are injured during a tense battle, you don't know it until you relax and the pain becomes severe.

Bazel tore off Qin Chuan's sleeve, illuminated it with a flashlight, and said, "It's nothing serious. We can continue to fight! The medical soldiers..."

The medical soldier immediately ran to Qin Chuan to treat Qin Chuan's wounds. He even put down the injury of another soldier and ran to Qin Chuan... Don't say that everyone is equal and should not be special on the battlefield. That’s right, the unequal relationship has already been formed when every soldier has achieved meritorious service. Important people should be given special care, and it is normal for them to even sacrifice their lives to take care of them.

Qin Chuan was used to this, so he let the medical soldiers handle it.

The medical soldier handled the situation very carefully. He called a few soldiers to cover the surroundings with ponchos to prevent the flashlight light from leaking out and attracting bullets and shells. Then he used a camera to carefully remove the shrapnel...

"I found a chip inside, Lieutenant!" the medic said, "so I have to open your wound and take it out!"

"Uh-huh!" Qin Chuan responded, and soon there was a severe cutting pain in his left arm, and then he felt a sense of relief as if a thorn had been taken out of his arm.

The medical soldier used iodine to sober up the wound, then sprinkled some hemostatic and anti-inflammatory drugs and bandaged it... If other soldiers did not have such treatment, they would simply treat it and send it to the rear before doing any further. treat.

"You should go get some rest!" said Bazel.

"Thank you, sir, but I think it's best to stay here!" Qin Chuan glanced at the soldiers around him. Many of them were injured more seriously than Qin Chuan. As a second lieutenant, Qin Chuan was too embarrassed to go down to rest.

Bazel nodded to express his understanding, patted Qin Chuan on the shoulder and left.

"A tough battle, isn't it?" Qin Chuan said to his men.

"Yes, Lieutenant!" Werner replied while bandaging his leg: "I almost thought I wouldn't be able to come back!"

"I almost let those Greeks deceive me!" Alfredo raised his bandaged left hand, and two fingers flew off: "So, I paid the price for my stupidity!"

The baker touched the bandage wrapped around his head with lingering fear and said: "My mind was blank at that time and I didn't know what to do at all. It was the second lieutenant's calmness and correct command that allowed us to survive!"

The German soldiers agreed:

"Yes, all I wanted to do was escape back to the trenches!"

"Me too, but now that I think about it... doing this will only make you die faster!"

…

Qin Chuan was worried just now that the morale of his subordinates would be greatly reduced due to the heavy casualties, but now it seems that this worry is completely unnecessary.

This may be said to be the result of the well-trained German soldiers, but Qinchuan felt that the more important commander... If Qinchuan had made wrong judgments and decisions in the battle just now, resulting in heavy casualties to the troops, the result would be completely It’s different.

Now, although the troops also suffered heavy casualties, the soldiers all recognized Qin Chuan's command, and they also achieved victory and glory. Therefore, instead of reducing morale, it improved and even affected other troops.

Sure enough, after a while Qin Chuan heard Bazel scolding other soldiers: "Cheer up, you bastards! Did you see what the first platoon did? They didn't even take a step in front of the offensive of thousands of people. Back off...if I were in your shoes, I would have peed my pants!"

Listening to this reprimand, the German soldiers couldn't help but smile proudly on their faces.

"Second Lieutenant!" At this time, the adjutant ran to Qin Chuan and said, "The Major wants you to go!"

"Yes, sir!" Qin Chuan picked up the rifle without saying a word and followed the adjutant along the traffic ditch to the headquarters.

The adjutant said as he walked: "It's about the prisoner. The major wanted to know some information from her, such as how many people they have, how much equipment they have, etc., but the prisoner refused to say anything!"

"But I can't help much, can I?" Qin Chuan was a little confused.

"Major, I heard that it was you who captured this prisoner and almost strangled her to death!" the adjutant said, "Major hopes that this will have some intimidating effect, so...you have to give her some color then, do you understand? "

"Yes, sir!" Qin Chuanying responded, but still didn't know what to do.

A few minutes later, the two of them walked into the headquarters. The headquarters was a temporary shell-proof cave built of wood against rocks. The lights were covered with ponchos outside, and a kerosene lamp was lit inside.

What surprised Qin Chuan was that the female prisoner was not tied up, but was sitting opposite Major Kleinman, as if the guests were discussing something... This may be a way for Germans to show gentlemanly demeanor in front of women. Find a way!

That's why they needed Qin Chuan to give the female captive some bad memories.

The female prisoner recognized Qin Chuan the moment he walked into the headquarters, and couldn't help but glared at Qin Chuan fiercely.

When Major Clayman saw Qin Chuan coming in, he raised his eyebrows, and then said politely in English: "I think you recognize this second lieutenant, Major! Yes, he is your captor, he is me The most outstanding subordinate, I heard that he almost accidentally killed you... If you don't cooperate, I believe he will be very willing to complete this unfinished mission!"

"Then please do it, Major!" The female prisoner actually spoke very fluent English.

Qin Chuan saw a look of helplessness and help in Major Clayman's eyes, and he couldn't help but almost laughed... Qin Chuan should have captured a male officer instead of a female officer, so that they would not be so embarrassed.

But Qin Chuan couldn't laugh, because he knew from Major Clayman's face that it was his time to perform next.
