The decisive battle against the Third Reich

It’s the fifth update, do you still have a monthly pass? If you have it, hand it over...

The 21st Armored Division was located in a military camp in Kiev.

Being able to be arranged in a military camp in the city is a very lucky thing, because it often means that there will be more supplies and more complete facilities.

For example, there was a stove in the military camp where Qin Chuan and others were located. Before Qin Chuan and others arrived, orderlies had lit a fire in the stove and boiled water. There were even several public baths inside that could accommodate 200 people at the same time... It is said that this place was a Soviet barracks before it was occupied, so the various facilities fully meet the requirements and living habits of the troops.

If they were camping outside the city, they would not have such good luck. They would even have to build their own tents.

Later, Qinchuan learned that these were not actually the luck of the 21st Armored Division, but were specially arranged by Major General Teleskov for the 21st Armored Division... This is the territory of Army Group Center, and Major General Teleskov is the commander of the Central Army Group. As the chief of staff of the army group, he certainly has the ability to "take special care" of Qin Chuan's unit.

Unsurprisingly, the first thing the soldiers did after arriving at the military camp was to rush into the bathhouse... There is nothing more satisfying than getting out of the smell of sweat, blood, and smoke after a big battle, especially this one. It is still a cold winter, and taking a bath in hot water can help the officers and soldiers forget all their unhappiness and worries.

As a result, hundreds of people poured into the bathhouse naked. Some were having a water fight like children in the smoky hot water, while others were desperately picking up the mud on their bodies. More often than not, just like Qin Chuan, he quietly soaked in the water, closed his eyes and enjoyed it for a while... Some people even fell asleep in this situation, and fell into the water and choked a few times before waking up. When they woke up, they didn't even know what was going on, and many thought they were still on the battlefield.

Therefore, for extremely tired soldiers, danger is everywhere, even in the bathhouse.

On the other hand, it is very difficult to find someone in a bathhouse, not only because the hot steam and dim lights inside reduce visibility exponentially, but also because everyone is naked and almost indistinguishable.

It took the communications soldier a long time to find Qin Chuan, who was resting with his eyes closed.

"Lieutenant Colonel!" said the signal soldier: "General Teleskov is waiting for you in the office!"

The office was only a hundred meters away from the bathhouse. A few minutes later, Qin Chuan, wearing military uniform, stepped into the wooden door of the office.

"Lieutenant Colonel!" Teleskov spread his hands and said, "Are you satisfied with my arrangement?"

"Is this your arrangement?" Qin Chuan was a little surprised.

"This is what it should be!" Teleskov replied: "It is my honor to reward the heroes who have returned victoriously from the front line!"

"Thank you!" Qin Chuan said.

"You don't have to say that!" Teleskov replied: "In fact, it's me, or we, who should say thank you!"

Looking around, Teleskov said: "They are very satisfied with your performance, Lieutenant Colonel. They can't believe that you and your troops can achieve such a brilliant record, especially Prokhorovka ...Everyone thought that the 48th Armored Corps would be completely wiped out, and we even planned to find an excuse to bring you back, but we didn't expect...that you could actually turn defeat into victory with just an anti-tank trench!"

"I just happened to be a little lucky, general!" Qin Chuan said: "At the same time, I also want to survive, so I have to go all out!"

"That's right!" Major General Trestev nodded and said, "Then... we plan to transfer the 21st Armored Division to the Western Front. Is there any problem?"

"No, no problem!" Qin Chuan replied, and then asked: "When?"

"Perhaps in the next few days!" Major General Telskov whispered: "Where do you think...the 21st Armored Division should be transferred? The Maginot Line or the Atlantic Wall?"

After thinking about it, Qin Chuan replied: "Then it depends on whether we have the equipment with us!"

"What do you mean?" Major General Teleskov was a little confused by Qin Chuan's words.

"If the 21st Armored Division is replenishing equipment in the Soviet Union, I mean tanks..." Qinchuan replied: "Then it should be transferred to Maginot! On the contrary, if it is replenishing equipment in Germany, it should be transferred to the Atlantic Wall!"

Qinchuan's meaning was very clear, that is, the equipment could not be transferred to the Atlantic Wall to face the bombing by the US and British forces, unless the equipment was originally waiting at the Atlantic Wall for the 21st Armored Division to receive it.

Major General Teleskov nodded, and then asked again: "So, where do you want to be transferred to the Atlantic Wall?"

Qin Chuan answered without thinking: "Where General Rommel is!"

"No problem!" Major General Teleskov shook hands with Qin Chuan: "I will do my best to facilitate this transfer. I hope you have thought about it carefully. However, if you change your mind temporarily, please contact me at any time! "

"Okay, General!"

At this time, there were footsteps outside the door, and Major General Teleskov returned to his normal tone and said: "On behalf of Army Group Center, I welcome you. Your performance on the front line is really impressive... In addition, Kru Marshal Ge is unable to come in person due to official duties. On his behalf, I would like to express my most sincere greetings to you!"

After being reminded by Major General Teleskov, Qin Chuan wanted to know the current situation of Marshal Kruger, who had been proposing an attack, but now he had no chance to ask.

The wooden door opened, and Colonel Slaine walked in with several staff officers. When he saw Major General Treskov, he stood up and saluted: "General, Colonel Slaine, commander of the 1st Infantry Regiment!"

"Very good, Colonel!" Major General Teleskov said, "Are you satisfied with everything here?"

"Of course, General!" Colonel Slain replied: "Very satisfied!"

Major General Treskov shook hands with Colonel Slain, then praised the 1st Infantry Regiment before making an excuse to leave.

I have to say that Major General Teleskov is a very good actor, because he did not feel unnatural at all, and seemed to be completely devoted to this role, which was completely different from his attitude towards Qin Chuan just now.

Colonel Slaine had no doubt about this at all. After Major General Treskov left, Colonel Slaine looked at Qin Chuan with envy and said: "Lieutenant Colonel, it seems that your reputation is getting higher and higher. , the Chief of Staff of Army Group Center actually came to our office to offer condolences... I think Major General Telesco wanted to meet you, the 'legendary sergeant'!"

"Colonel!" Qin Chuan replied: "Do you think I would be excited just because a major general came here to offer condolences?"

Colonel Slain rolled his eyes and replied: "Well, you really don't need to be excited about this. But, do you have to say it?"
