The decisive battle against the Third Reich

"Fire!" Qin Chuan ordered loudly.

The French soldiers immediately pulled the trigger and fired bullets at the British soldiers. Immediately, more than a dozen British soldiers screamed and fell in a pool of blood.

However, the sound of gunfire greatly exposed the position of the French soldiers, and the British covering units quickly launched a counterattack.

These covering units include tanks at the foot of the mountain. Of course, tank guns will not play much role at this time... The first is the elevation problem, and secondly, it is difficult for direct-fire guns to pose a threat to the French soldiers hiding on the edge of the mountaintop position.

In fact, not only tank guns, but most of the bullets fired by anti-aircraft machine guns look scary but are difficult to hit French soldiers. The reason is very simple. The French soldiers are at high altitudes and hiding in trenches. The machine guns at the foot of the mountain are very difficult to hit. It is difficult to effectively suppress them.

But the French soldiers were frightened by the bullets flying everywhere above their heads and making a sharp whistle, or they were shocked by the blood and screams of the enemy. Many of them just looked at it stupidly with their guns in hand. They rush up towards the enemy but don't dare to pull the trigger, or they hide in the trench and don't dare to show up.

"Keep shooting!" Qin Chuan ordered loudly: "Otherwise they will rush up and kill you!"

But Qin Chuan's efforts were in vain. The French soldiers seemed to have forgotten everything during the training. Less than half of them could fight normally, and some even screamed and ran away... Stefan, who originally said he wanted to look good to the British It's one of them.

Of course, they failed to escape. The German soldiers on the second line pinned them to the ground immediately.

What pleased Qin Chuan was that Venet was very calm from beginning to end as she pulled the trigger again and again to kill the target. Moreover, she also did what a sniper should do...change positions from time to time and kill the target. Dangerous enemies.

After the war, Qin Chuan asked Venette: "Aren't you afraid?"

"No, of course I'm afraid!" Vinette replied.

"But you don't look like that on the battlefield!"

"That's because I always believe that there is someone beside me!" Weinette looked at Qin Chuan and said, "He will eliminate all threats for me, right?"

"Oh!" Qin Chuan said, "This man must be very handsome!"

"Fuck you!" Vinette laughed.

But the battle was no joke, the situation at that time was very dangerous... As soon as the French soldiers' firepower weakened, the British soldiers took advantage of this moment to press forward.

This is not to say that the British army will occupy the position on the top of the mountain or anything else. The German army has fortifications built on the reverse slope, and there are many well-trained German troops. The British army is still far from occupying the position on the top of the mountain.

However, if the British army rushed forward like this, the French soldiers would suffer heavy casualties.

At the critical moment, Bazel ordered: "Second Company, move forward!"

The German troops on the second line immediately pushed forward. As soon as they entered the position on the top of the mountain, they threw out a row of grenades amidst the whistle, raised their guns and fired after a burst of explosions, and soon defeated the British offensive.

"It seems your troops need to be retrained!" Bazel said as he passed by Qin Chuan.

Kuhn actually had a good word for Qin Chuan: "Please, Captain! They are French, no matter how you train them, it won't be useful!"

While saying this, Kuen looked at Qin Chuan with sympathetic eyes, and then shook his head slightly.

Qin Chuan didn't know what to say at this time.

It is true that new recruits will have problems of one kind or another when they first go to the battlefield, but the poor performance of the French battalion is too much.

"Lieutenant!" Werner led several deserters, including Stefan, to Qin Chuan and asked, "How to deal with these people?"

Qin Chuan responded coldly: "Take it back!"

In the tunnel, under the weak light of the kerosene lamp, the angry Colonel Slain said to the French soldiers who were pale and still trembling: "Now, you know what war is! No, let me tell you, this is not War, because if it were a real war, you would have died under the gun of the British. Oh, by the way, there is another possibility...that is, you surrender to the British!"

Colonel Slain turned his head and said reproachfully to Qin Chuan: "You should be tougher on them!"

As he spoke, Colonel Slain pulled out his pistol and loaded it. Several German soldiers pulled up the tied up Stefan and several deserters and knelt on the ground.

Colonel Slaine walked up and pulled the trigger with a bang on the back of one of the men's heads. The bullet passed through his head and splashed a pool of blood. The soldier was as lifeless as a sack. fell to the ground.

Colonel Slain did not hesitate, then walked towards the second man, pulled the trigger, and another man fell after a gunshot.

Stefan started to cry: "No, no, Colonel, I won't run away again, I promise..."

"Bang!" The gunshot stopped Stefan's cry for mercy.

"Do you know why I did this?" Colonel Slain put away his gun: "Because this is a battlefield in China. You must abide by German military regulations when you wear German military uniforms, and the German army...will never tolerate deserters. Yes, absolutely!”

Before leaving, Colonel Slain said to Qin Chuan: "Lieutenant, although you were right before, this time..."

Colonel Slain looked at the French soldiers and said, "I think you are wrong. You can't place your hopes on them!"

With that said, Colonel Slain turned around and walked out of the tunnel, leaving only a few corpses with their brains exploded and the smell of blood and gunpowder in the air.

After a long silence, Qin Chuan said to the French soldiers: "Forget your family, forget your family's business, and forget that they will be retaliated by the Algerians... The only thing you have to do is how to survive from here. Go back, understand?”

"Understood, sir!"

"Yes, Lieutenant!"

…

The French soldiers answered tremblingly.

Qin Chuan didn't say anything else. They had endured enough today, so he signaled a few subordinates to clean up the corpses and returned to the tunnel that served as the headquarters.

Qin Chuan had always been reluctant to smoke in the tunnel, because it would make the already turbid air worse, but he couldn't help but light one... It was a red Gaul that he received from Venet.

Qin Chuan was thinking about this while smoking:

These French people do not have a strong will to fight, and they even always hold on to a glimmer of hope in their hearts that they can still become allies with Britain... Although they did not say it out loud, Qin Chuan knew that they had such thoughts.

Especially now that the Allied forces have reached Tunisia and are attacking fiercely, but the German army has to hide in the tunnels like mice.

This made them think that the Allies would eventually win, so they would not be willing to die for the Germans.
