The decisive battle against the Third Reich

If he hadn't known that the Gestapo was chasing him along the way, Qin Chuan would have been deceived by Heydrich's eagerness for talents.

Of course, Qin Chuan knew that Heydrich's purpose in doing this was not to deceive Qin Chuan. Heydrich was doing it to show Canaris and Hitler... One day, if something happens to the "Legendary Sergeant", For example, if he disappeared, it would have nothing to do with Heydrich.

At this time, Qin Chuan felt exhausted both physically and mentally.

This is not because Qin Chuan is afraid of Heydrich, but because he is tired of this kind of charade that looks amiable but is secretly cunning.

Compared to this kind of life, Qin Chuan would rather stay on the battlefield.

At this time, Qin Chuan felt a little regretful. If he had known better, he shouldn't have made such a counterfeit money plan on a whim. Even if he had to do it, he should have waited until Heydrich was assassinated. This would have saved him a lot of trouble.

But then again, if you really do this... you will be afraid that you will have returned to the battlefield and will not be able to affect the rear, so the counterfeit money will have to be delayed for at least half a year before you can get rid of it.

Half a year may not be a long time, but now there are only three years until the historical surrender of Germany. The counterfeit banknote plan half a year in advance may bring many changes to Germany.

Unknowingly, Qin Chuan was led by his staff to Rommel's room.

"General Rommel is resting!" the guard stopped the staff officer.

Rommel's guards were different, even Hitler's staff dared to stop him.

The staff officer looked at Qin Chuan helplessly, and Qin Chuan said to the staff officer with understanding: "I'm waiting here for the general!"

"Are you...'Legendary Sergeant'?" The guard quickly recognized Qin Chuan.

"Yes, my friend!" Qin Chuan couldn't help the excitement in his heart, and stepped forward to shake hands with the guard warmly and hug him tightly.

This is an indescribable feeling, especially when Qin Chuan came out of the African Legion. Seeing the African Legion now is like meeting his own relatives.

"Is Africa okay?" Qin Chuan asked the guard: "Is General Rommel okay?"

"Everything is fine, Captain!" The guard was also a little excited: "We heard that you won another battle in Holm. The African Corps is discussing you. We regard you as the pride of the African Corps!"

"Many people miss your days in Africa!" Another guard continued: "They all say that without the First Infantry Regiment and the 'Legendary Sergeant', Africa would be nothing but bare desert. The general also mentioned it often. you!"

Qin Chuan only shook hands with the two of them, and there were tears in his eyes unconsciously... He suddenly missed Africa again. He wanted to go there to see the desert, the sea, and the hundreds of thousands of people who had fought together there. Comrades.

"Who's there?" A question came from the room.

"General!" The guard was about to reply but was stopped by Qin Chuan.

The guard understood what Qin Chuan meant and replied, "Someone is coming to visit you!"

"Let him in!" Rommel said.

Qin Chuan pushed the door open and walked in. Rommel was buttoning his military uniform in front of the mirror and said, "I'm sorry, I haven't rested for two days. You know, that damn place in Africa..."

“Especially now that the rainy season has just ended in Algeria, it’s humid and hot everywhere, and there are more mosquitoes than sand!”

"Yes!" Rommel couldn't help but turned around in surprise: "How do you know this..."

But he was stunned soon, and then he rushed up to him and said with a smile: "Frick, it's really you!"

"Yes, general!" Qin Chuan stood up and saluted Rommel.

"Very good, Captain!" Rommel patted Qin Chuan on the shoulder: "I have seen it. You have another medal, and it is also the unique Holm coat of arms. Do you know? I really hope that the soldiers of the African Legion I can forget you!"

"Why?" Qin Chuan asked puzzledly.

"Because you distracted them!" Rommel said: "They care about you more than they care about themselves... God, these guys were talking about Holm when the British and Americans were attacking the Gabes defense line. !”

"This is impossible!" Qin Chuan couldn't help laughing.

"It's absolutely true!" Rommel said: "I'm just about to issue an order to stop them from doing this!"

"Then why didn't you give the order?" Qin Chuan asked.

"Because I was also thinking about how you would block the attack of those Bolsheviks!" Rommel helplessly spread his hands: "This is one of my pleasures, and you did not let us down!"

As he spoke, Rommel poured a glass of wine for Qin Chuan.

"How is Africa?" Qin Chuan asked.

"Very good!" Rommel replied: "As you estimated, the war situation has reached a stalemate, or it can be said that... the British and Americans hope to reach a stalemate!"

Qin Chuan understood the meaning of Rommel's words. To put it simply, Britain and the United States were stunned by the power of V1. At the same time, it was indeed difficult to break through the defense line deployed by the African Corps in Tunisia.

"Our oil has begun to be produced in large quantities!" Rommel said: "The current daily output is 23,000 barrels."

As he spoke, Rommel sighed: "Isn't this wonderful? Originally, we had been worried about the fuel problem, which needed to be transported from Berlin and France, but now... it is not only enough for the African Corps, but also shipped to Germany in batches. More The great thing is that its production is still increasing! ”

"It is indeed a good thing!" Qin Chuan said: "So, I believe that the head of state will never regard Africa as a secondary battlefield again!"

"Of course!" Rommel replied: "It's just that... the head of state originally wanted us to launch a counterattack!"

Qin Chuan looked at Rommel with incredible eyes.

"Yes!" Rommel said: "That's what he said, because he believed that we had sufficient supplies, especially oil, while the British and Americans had to bring oil from further away, India or even the United States, you know Yes, the Strait of Gibraltar has been blocked by us!"

"But that doesn't mean they're short of supplies!"

"The Führer hopes that we can fight a war of attrition with the Allies!" Rommel said: "In his imagination, we have inexhaustible oil, but the Allied forces will not be able to continue for a day!"

"But did you convince him?" Qin Chuan asked.

"Yes!" Rommel said: "Do you know how I convinced him?"

Qin Chuan shook his head.

"The answer is simple!" Rommel said: "Our focus now should be on the Eastern Front, and we should concentrate most of our efforts on dealing with the Soviets first. He agreed, but I may also have to leave Africa!"

"Leave Africa?" Qin Chuan asked, "Why?"

"If there is no counterattack and the defense line is in a stalemate!" Rommel spread his hands: "What can I do in Africa?"
