Three Hundred and Twenty Nine, Don't Take Risks

"Ren!" The doctor who performed the operation asked while tossing Ren's shoulder, "Does it hurt?"

"I know what you mean, it really hurts—but I can bear it. ∷4:5:∷中∷I tried to take this thing out without anesthesia and morphine, and that's the pain." Ryan His right hand was pressed against his forehead, as if he was recalling those terrible things: "Someone is holding you down, and someone is digging your wound with their fingers. It's not a good feeling."

"Is that school really that scary?" The battalion commander, who knew about Ren's background and had just learned that Ren was injured, also came, sat beside Ren, and said while watching Ren's operation.

"I heard that the school has been closed by the Yuan, because the experiments in it—that is, we, all failed." Renn said with a wry smile: "There are differences between the top leaders of the two countries on the training direction of soldiers. The Soviet Union believes that All soldiers should be brainwashed and trained to be cold-blooded machines that can only kill. This is why I was abused in school. I killed people and was hunted down... Later, this experimental project was ordered to stop by General Guderian. I became the first and last victims."

"Next time, don't take risks lightly." The battalion commander said with a sigh: "You are the wealth of Germany, and it is not in our interests to lose it easily. So next time, you are not allowed to leave the tank to perform dangerous missions alone ,understand?"

"Hehe, this time the situation is quite special. I always have to teach my electromechanics how to kill people." Ren nodded and said with a smile: "I will pay attention, and I won't embarrass you, Battalion Commander."

The bullet of the "Patta" revolver was taken out of Ren's shoulder, and the doctor threw it on the table at hand: "The wound is starting to be stitched...you are lucky, this bullet didn't hit any important parts, and there was no Injury to a blood vessel."

"Thank you, doctor." Ren smiled embarrassedly, and then closed his eyes tiredly: "I'm a little sleepy, maybe I've lost too much blood. I'll be fine after a night's sleep, occupying a bed here... ...doesn't matter?"

By the time this was said, Ren had already fallen asleep. And Alice beside him kept watching all this, her eyes were red and she didn't speak.

The battalion commander stood up, walked to Alice, patted her on the shoulder and said, "Alice,

It's been a while since you came to the front line, and I haven't had time to chat with you. I just have time today, so let me tell you what I want to tell you. "

He glanced at Alice, sighed and said: "Half of the women who came to the front became nurses and traveled around with the troops, and a few became staff members, helping officers with some cases, and only a few of them were real. It can be said that these girls are not inferior to men, and I am honored to have such a brave girl like you in my army."

"Ren is the hero of our battalion. It's your blessing to be with him—or to be able to team up with his car." The battalion commander looked at the distance and said with some regret: "Don't let God down. Your gift..."

"Battalion Commander! I understand!" Alice nodded and said, "I will try my best not to become a burden to Tank 113! At least, I won't let Renn's blood be shed in vain!"

"It's good that you understand. I hope this kind of thing will never happen again in the future." The battalion commander said as he walked out: "The ace of the armored soldiers, the winner of the Oak Leaf Iron Cross, actually ran to fight with the opposing infantry Hand-to-hand combat, you asked me to tell you what's good about you! Sigh, I really risked my life for love..."

"..." Alice suddenly had a feeling of wanting to cry, but why did she follow Rennes out for a while, and she regarded herself as a Rennes woman?

At this time in the city of Amiens, the supreme commander of the French army was talking on the phone with General de Gaulle in another direction: "I think the 9th Army has shed the last drop of blood for France. I have to consider surrendering now." I have a problem. In my front, more than half of the infantry of a division has been lost, and the defense on the flanks is torn apart. The 40 tanks you supported me have all been lost..."

De Gaulle's face was also livid on the phone. Several times he mobilized tanks to confront the German army and ended in failure, especially the Battle of the Pass, which was simply an indelible shame in his life. He vowed to take Stone, but he fell into the sand at a small unnamed pass-it was not the huge German armored force that stopped him, but only a Panther tank.

No one will be in a good mood after confirming the results of this battle. If he later learned that the Panther tank has changed and appeared in the direction of Amiens again, De Gaulle seems to want to cry Impulse - can't you change places? Do you have any grudge against me? How many times? How long are you going to bully me like this?

Holding the phone, he didn't seem to know what to say. After a while, he murmured, "General, if you surrender in Amiens, it will affect your reputation..."

"I don't want to do such a shameful thing at this time, but now I really have no choice. If I don't make this difficult decision now, tens of thousands of French soldiers will be completely wiped out in Asia." sleep." The commander of the 9th Army said with difficulty: "We don't have much ammunition left, and the loss is already unbearable."

"You have to know! In Belgium, we still have hundreds of thousands of troops! You can't give up at will! The place you guard is almost the last channel for the main force of our army to retreat south!" De Gaulle said with a frown: "I am Find a way to mobilize troops, you only need to hold out for a few hours, and my tanks will launch an attack on the German flank and cover your troops to defend Amiens."

"It's too late! General de Gaulle... More than half of Amiens has fallen into the hands of the Germans. I lose a soldier's life every few minutes. My troops were originally assembled only to defend the flanks, and the lack of ammunition also Without long-term training, it is already the limit to be able to last until now."

"Can't you hold on for France for a few more hours?" De Gaulle was already speaking in a pleading tone: "As long as you hold on for a few more hours, I will take over the defense of Amiens, even if the last person is exhausted, I will De Gaulle will never take a step back! For France, I would rather die at the head of Amiens!"

"I can only hold out for another hour at most! General de Gaulle, by then the ammunition will be exhausted and my troops will not be able to fight the Germans without weapons, so I don't know exactly what you are going to do, but this is my All that can be done." The commander of the 9th Army finally said.

"Thank you! I thank you on behalf of the French people!" De Gaulle hung up the phone, and then looked at his staff officer: "How many troops can we mobilize? Near Amiens! I will go to Amiens myself! How many troops can be gathered? How many troops muster!"

"Your Excellency, General! Our several failures have already exhausted our reserve forces. Now our frontal defense line is riddled with holes. The existing forces are simply unable to maintain the safety of the entire defense line. The collapse of the defense line..." The chief of staff wiped the sweat from his forehead and said: "Even if we ignore the safety of the defense line, we can gather dozens of tanks and about a battalion of infantry."

"What? How come there are so few?" De Gaulle looked at his chief of staff in surprise, then quickly pressed his hand on the map and looked down: "Near Amiens, we were covered by the enemy's special artillery and shot, and lost 4 A tank... Here we were attacked by an SS Grenadier unit and had to leave a battalion behind to stop it. What about the 2nd Panzer Company? Where did that unit go?"

"Originally as a reserve force, the 9 B1 tanks of this company were transferred to the assault troops in the Battle of the Pass. At that time, our strength was not so insufficient, so we didn't remind you about the deployment of troops." The chief of staff said helplessly. : "In fact, there is only one company here and the remaining 7 tanks of the 2nd Armored Company here that can reach Amiens within an hour."

"Then let these troops hurry over! Scrape ammunition to the neighboring troops nearby! Send them to the 9th Army together! As long as I can hold on for another hour, I can reinforce him with a dozen tanks and 500 troops Soldier!" De Gaulle hammered the table, gritted his teeth and said, "Just to fill in the oil little by little, I will stick to Amiens until General Ganmerin goes south!"

Fifty minutes later, a company of infantry and 7 tanks that Charles de Gaulle managed to get together entered the city of Amiens. After 5 minutes, Amiens surrendered, and the commander of the 9th Army shot himself in a basement in Amiens. . Under the leadership of the Deputy Commander, the 9th French Army surrendered to General Guderian with some units of the 10th French Armored Army.

Soon, Guderian, with a team of reporters, entered the ruined urban area of ​​Amiens under the escort of dozens of German Panther tanks, where he personally presided over the surrender ceremony of the French defenders. He took over the ceremony with a smile. The flag of the French Ninth Army, and the sword of the dead commander of the Ninth Army.

De Gaulle, who got the news of Amiens' surrender, was speechless for a long time. He spared his troops on the defense line to support Amiens, hoping that Amiens would be able to defend until General Ganmerin's attempt to go south was completely shattered, and he waited for his general. It would be a massive German attack, and he now had no reserves to support his defenses.

In the evening, Rennes opened his eyes, and the radio in the field hospital echoed Yuan Akado's passionate speech celebrating the occupation of Amiens. After the German army basically controlled the British and French allied forces, General Rommel's troops were only a few miles away from the English Channel. Only one day to go.
