Chapter 552 Return
Life and death often happen in an instant.
If Qin Chuan faced the same situation at this time, let alone taking out a pistol and shooting to chase the assassin, he would definitely go as far as he could in the first place.
Because anyone who can think normally will know that the assassin cannot place all his hopes on one person. Taking a step back...is it really important to kill the assassin?
It is a shame that the ever-smart Heydrich made an extremely stupid choice in a critical moment.
But this does not seem surprising, because Heydrich was a naval radio officer, and then entered the SS to do intelligence work under Himmler. This means that Heydrich has almost never experienced actual combat like Qin Chuan. .
To make matters worse, the pride cultivated by his long-term success and his status as governor of the Protectorate of Bohemia and Moravia made him disdain to run away with his tail between his legs in front of the assassins. Instead, he tried to show that he was fearless and brave in the face of danger. The brave fighting side of the assassin...
The result of this was that Heydrich climbed out of the broken car with difficulty, seriously injured.
A blond Czech woman ran over to help, and soon a small group of people gathered around. They recognized Heydrich and tried to help him, but the pistol Heydrich always held in his hand frightened them... ...At this time, Heydrich certainly did not dare to trust anyone easily, especially the Czechs.
This situation lasted for several minutes, and no one knew what to do, until one of them stopped an old car and successfully took Heydrich to the nearby Brovaca Hospital.
It was 8:32 a.m., and of course Hitler, who was used to getting up late, was still lying in bed sleeping.
As soon as the staff received the intelligence, they knocked on Hitler's bedroom door with a telegram.
When the sleepy Hitler saw the contents of the telegram clearly, he couldn't help but look at his staff in stunned silence.
The news quickly spread throughout the Prime Minister's Office. Of course, Qin Chuan and Rommel also received the news, and the officers couldn't help but talk about it.
Not surprisingly, Hitler held an emergency meeting in the Prime Minister's Conference Room... Qin Chuan had no right to participate in this meeting, but he could guess what the content of the meeting was: Hitler would scream in the conference room like a madman Roar, denounce those who use despicable means to organize assassinations, and at the same time order a comprehensive search for assassins and suspicious elements and make every effort to rescue Heydrich.
Sure enough, the order came quickly: the rally ended early and everyone returned to their respective posts.
Qin Chuan wished for this. His only regret was that he could not say goodbye to General Rommel.
On the way to the train station, Qinchuan discovered that the people in Berlin still knew nothing about it. They were still marching and shouting in the streets holding flags, as if they had endless energy.
"Captain, Captain!" At this time, several people waved to Qin Chuan from the side of the carriage. Qin Chuan looked back and saw that it was the children from the youth league.
The carriage stopped, and the youth group members cheered and surrounded them.
Meyer saluted in front of Qin Chuan and said, "Nice to see you again, Captain!"
"Me too!" Qin Chuan jumped out of the carriage and shook hands with several teenagers.
"We saw you next to the head of state!" A young man said enviously: "We also saw the head of state personally bringing you a medal!"
"Is that just a medal?"
"Yes!" Qin Chuan touched the knight's medal hanging in the center of the collar, and then said a little sincerely: "One day, you can get something like it!"
"Thank you for your encouragement, Captain!" Meyer replied: "You are our role model, and we will keep your words in our hearts!"
As he spoke, all the youth groups stood up and said, "Salute to you!"
Qin Chuan returned the salute and then returned to the carriage.
When the carriage started running again, Qin Chuan had mixed feelings... These children should have lived a carefree childhood with their parents, but now they were preparing for the battlefield in the future.
Soon, the carriage arrived at the train station. Just as Qin Chuan was about to pay the coachman, the coachman respectfully replied: "Captain, you don't have to pay me anything. It's an honor to serve you. Thank you for everything you have done for Germany!" "
Qin Chuan thought this was just a coincidence, or that the driver would recognize him because of what the Youth League said.
But he soon discovered that this was not the case, because after queuing at the train station ticket office, he was recognized within a few minutes.
"God, 'Legendary Sergeant'!" Someone exclaimed when they saw Qin Chuan.
"Yes, I saw with my own eyes that the head of state put that knighthood medal on him!"
Needless to say what happened next, someone soon came up and said to Qin Chuan: "Captain, come to the front!"
"No, how could I..."
"Of course you can!" Passengers said one after another: "You are fighting bravely for our freedom and dignity on the front line, so it is natural for me to make it easier for you!"
"Yes, and of course your time is more valuable than all of ours!"
…
It was hard to reject the warm hospitality, so Qin Chuan could only say thank you while walking to the ticket window.
"Are you going back to Frankfurt, Captain?" the beautiful conductor asked with a respectful smile.
"Yes!" Qin Chuan replied.
"This is your ticket!" Before Qin Chuan handed over his ID and ration card, the conductor handed out the ticket: "Of course there is no fee, but you should hurry up. The train should have left at this time. We have notified the dispatch office to stop it!”
"Oh, thank you!" Qin Chuan looked confused and stopped the entire train for himself. This was no ordinary treatment.
What Qin Chuan didn't know was that many passengers on the train complained angrily at first: "The time has come, why aren't you driving yet?"
"Because we are waiting for someone!" the conductor replied.
"What? Stopping a train just to wait for someone? That's too much!"
Germans have always had the habit of being punctual, so they all spoke to express their dissatisfaction.
But the conductor replied matter-of-factly: "Shut your mouth, if you know who you are waiting for, you will be grateful to us!"
These words aroused the anger of the passengers:
"We don't need to thank anyone, we just want to get this broken train started!"
"This is taking up all of our time!"
…
However, when they saw Qin Chuan in military uniform appearing on the platform and hurriedly jumping on the train, they were stunned.
Someone didn't recognize Qin Chuan for a moment, and said with a puzzled expression: "What? Are we just waiting for this officer?"
His words were quickly countered by passengers: "Shut up, he is the 'Legendary Sergeant'!"
