Battle of the Third Reich
v4 Chapter 29: wake
Xu Jun slowly opened his eyes, the first thing that caught his eyes was Hans's face full of joy.
"Wake up, he woke up, praise God. My marshal. You finally woke up."
Muller's loud cheers reverberated in this small medical car, and then other officers also began to congratulate and cheer. The noise in his ear made Xu Jun feel dizzy, and the severe pain from his shoulder made Xu Jun frown.
Seeing Xu Jun's painful expression, Colonel Surent quickly scolded the officers: "Can you be quiet, the Field Marshal just woke up and needs a quiet rest, can you whisper."
After listening to the words of the military doctor, the officers hurriedly closed their mouths, but their eyes still showed a look of great joy and excitement. Everyone was as happy as if they had just won a magnificent battle.
"Okay, now everyone sees that the Marshal is okay, you should rest assured. You go out and let the Marshal take a rest. We generals will accompany the Marshal." Weierle smiled at those. The officers gave orders. Although the officers were somewhat unwilling, they still obeyed the command of the chief of staff. They paid a military salute to Xu Jun who was lying on the bed, and then left the medical car compartment.
"Marshal! You finally woke up. Do you know how worried we were when we saw you shot down? At that time we felt like the end of the world was coming." Hans said excitedly to Jun Xu.
"Yeah, it's great to see that you have nothing, but you are terrified of us all this time." Mueller was crying with joy.
"The two of you are too ugly. The Marshal is out of danger. He can recover his health as long as he rests for a while. However, whether there is any sequelae to this injury depends on the recovery of the wound, at least during this time. Your Excellency Marshal still try not to do anything casually, and let them do everything." Weiler said to Xu Jun with a smile while standing next to Colonel Solent.
Xu Jun now has a mess of porridge in his mind, and he hasn't heard a word from his subordinates. He now feels that his head is swollen, especially his shoulders are burning like pain. He tried hard to recall what happened before, and he wanted to figure out what happened to him.
"Give me a glass of water, Hans." Xu Jun said to Hans with difficulty.
"Ah, water. Yes, my marshal, I'll get it for you immediately." After hearing Xu Jun's words, Hans quickly jumped up and rushed towards the drinking fountain in the corner of the carriage.
"Müller." Xu Jun slowly turned his head to look at Mueller and said, "What the **** happened, I remember we were in a meeting. Later, I seemed to be pushed by something, and I couldn't remember anything later. ."
"My marshal, you were hit by a bullet."
Mueller quickly reported the situation to Xu Jun carefully. When Xu Jun fell on the conference table without warning, everyone was stunned. It was only when Hans found the bullet hole in the carriage that everyone understood that the Marshal was hit. Everyone was disturbed by this sudden situation, and no one thought to check the marshal's injury. Everyone thought Xu Jun was finished. At that time, everyone just wanted to rush out and fight with those attackers. Revenge their marshal.
But it’s no wonder that the officers were too ugly because Xu Jun’s performance was too hard. He first fell like a piece of wood on the conference table, and then his untidy hands were on the conference table. After scratching a few hands, after a few kicks, there was no more movement. How to look at the final action is like a legendary dying struggle. Coupled with the anti-tank gun shouted by Hans, anyone would feel that the Field Marshal had died in glory.
Instead, Hans reacted first. He stepped forward and carefully inspected Xu Jun's injury, only to find that the bullet only shot through Xu Jun's shoulder, and the marshal was only temporarily comatose and had not hung up.
Hans's conclusion relieved those officers. They quickly wrapped up Xu Jun in a hurry, and then the officers jumped out of the command car in batches according to the rank and position. Under the cover of the accurate marksmanship of the middle and senior officers, the four generals alternately acted as flesh shields and transferred Xu Jun from the command vehicle to the medical vehicle. Coupled with Colonel Surend's superb medical skills and proficient surgical skills, this rescued him.
"Yes." After listening to Mueller's story, Xu Jun finally understood what happened to him, thinking that these officers were willing to risk his guns, bullets, and rain regardless of his personal safety in order to cover him. Xu Jun felt a warm surge from the bottom of his heart. .
"I don’t know what to say, I can’t express my gratitude for these things you have done for me. Everyone is okay, is anyone hurt? I really don’t want you to suffer for me Injury." Xu Jun looked at Mueller and said.
"Please don’t say that, my marshal. We’re worth our lives even for you, because you are the hope of our Germany. Rest assured, no one is injured in order to rescue you. Those injured are those attacks. The attacker was hit during the battle. As long as you are safe, we are willing to do so even if all of you are killed.” Weiler said with a smile.
"Marshal, water." Hans lifted Xu Jun a little, then put the water cup to Xu Jun's mouth. "Don't speak first, you should be very clear in our minds, for our great motherland, for you, we can pay everything for us. So it is needless to say such gratitude, you come to rejuvenate our motherland. It’s enough to repay us. My marshal."
After drinking a few sips of water, Xu Jun nodded and signaled that enough, Hans gently put the glass on the shelf.
"Let me sit up leaning and lie down uncomfortably." Xu Jun said to Hans with a wry smile. Hans and Mueller hurriedly put Xu Jun on the side of the bed and sat up.
"Marshal, how are you feeling now?" Colonel Sulent asked with a smile.
"It's okay, the wound hurts badly, and my head is a bit swollen."
"Oh, that's normal. This is the reaction after the operation is anesthetized. After a while, I will give you some painkillers. It should be able to relieve your pain. But then, your body is really very strong. To be honest, I haven't seen a body as healthy and strong as you. Your vitality is also surprising to me. Just less than half an hour after the operation, you have signs of awakening. This is the first time this has happened in your medical career. And you can sit up and talk to us consciously just after the operation. This can only be explained by miracles. I don’t know how to come To express my present surprise, it seems that it can only be said that this is a miracle of God, it seems that God is really watching our Germany, he shows his divine power to his messenger, and your body proves him Caring for us, praising the great Lord." Sulent said as he began to praise God with a pious expression. Xu Jun, who was the messenger of God in his eyes, also became a great existence. His eyes There is a radiance of fanatical worship.
"Okay, my doctor, if you want to work part-time as a chaplain, I can arrange it for you. You haven't introduced his injury to the Marshal." Mueller interrupted the doctor's hymn without mercy.
"Ah, oh yes, I'm very sorry for my marshal. Let me briefly tell you what you are doing now." Sulent took out a bullet from his pocket and handed it to Xu Jun.
"This is the bullet that hurt you. It was discovered by General Hans from the command vehicle. You can see the bullet after penetrating your body after penetrating a layer of 15 mm steel armor plate There is no variation, that’s why, your injury is actually much lighter than it looks on the outside. This bullet only pierced a two-hole hole on your shoulder. The bullet did not deform in your body. There is no tumbling, so your wound is simply surprising, and fortunately, it avoids your skeletal blood vessels and nerves, but just passes through the ordinary muscle layer, except for tearing a few muscles. You cause more damage, so it’s a miracle. If you do well in the next period of time, I can guarantee you will recover the same as before, except that it may leave a scar Will have any effect on your future actions."
After listening to the words of Surrent, Xu Jun felt that he might really be spoiled by God. He was hit by an anti-tank gun and was only wounded by this kind of wound. It is unbelievable. But when he carefully looked at the bullet, he realized why.
"This is the bullet of wz35." Xu Jun said looking at the bullet in his hand.
"Yes, my marshal. But how did you see it." Mueller replied in surprise.
"It’s very simple, like the anti-tank gun of such a small caliber, until now, only the Polish wz35 model. The rigidity of the 7.92 mm tungsten carbide warhead it uses should be clear to everyone, this is what It didn’t deform after shooting through the armor plate of my command vehicle, but if the armor of my command vehicle is thicker, the result will not be like this, it may break apart, think I am still true Fortunately, the other party was hitting me with this weapon. If they used a T-type anti-tank gun, I would not be able to sit here and talk to you." Xu Jun answered with a smile.
"Yeah, the T-shaped caliber is 13 millimeters, and it's not as simple as a small bullet." Mueller nodded and agreed.
"But it reminds me of one thing." Xu Jun looked down at the bullet and frowned.
"What is it, my marshal." Hans asked curiously. Xu Jun didn't answer Hans' question. He raised his head and said to Sulent: "Colonel Sulent, can you give me a painkiller? My wound hurts badly."
"Observe, my marshal, please bear with me again, and I will immediately prepare to give you an injection." Sulent quickly began to prepare his injection tool.
Xu Jun turned his head to look at Hans and Mueller and said, "I remembered that the anti-tank weapons we are using in the Army are not very satisfactory."
At this time, Surend came with a syringe, and he respectfully said to Xu Jun: "My Marshal, can I inject now?" Xu Jun nodded slightly, and then continued to turn his head to his men Speaking: "You all know that we don't actually have an anti-tank weapon that is suitable for ordinary infantry. Take the anti-tank gun as an example. Although the current products may not be able to penetrate the main armor of active tanks, The penetrating power to the weak parts of the tank still exists within the distance, and those positions are often the key parts of the tank, such as the rear armor of the tank and the engine armor. A small anti-tank bullet can give the tank These parts cause serious damage. And it is also enough to deal with the light armored vehicles used by our enemies, so I think that anti-tank guns will never be outdated. It will be a very important weapon for infantry to deal with enemy armored targets. ."
"My marshal, I have given you a shot of analgesic, I believe that the power will be reflected in a while, I think you still do not speak first, take a good rest first, you lose a lot of blood, you should rest in peace, if you have anything to wait You can recover a little bit and say it again." Sulent interjected while holding an empty syringe.
"I know, thank you, my doctor. I'll give you a few words to rest." Xu Jun turned his head and smiled and nodded at the characteristics of Sulun.
Then he went on to Hans and they said: "Our German t-type anti-tank gun is indeed excellent but it is still not suitable for ordinary infantry. It is too bulky, 18 kilograms, and it takes two soldiers to make it. Close cooperation. It is a joke to let our soldiers take this kind of thing to fight against the enemy on the battlefield. Can't we make a Malacek like Poland? It is only nine kilograms, and its recoil is lighter than the T-type. At least half of it, an ordinary soldier can use it without much training, and the structure is also very simple. It does not require precise processing like t-type to obtain sufficient accuracy. It can be produced in large quantities if we are in its After further transformation, we can develop a more ideal infantry anti-tank weapon on the basis of it. I think our soldiers will get the same life support. At least they don’t have to be without anti-tank artillery support Use cluster grenades to deal with the enemy's light armored vehicles, especially those paratroopers and mountain infantry. They most need a portable anti-armor weapon. I want to wait until our current thing is over and talk to the military. Talk to the head of the R&D department."
Xu Jun found that he had suddenly come up with a lot of ideas now. He especially wanted to tell all his thoughts to his men. But maybe Sulent’s painkiller was working or it was really because of excessive blood loss. Xu Jun felt the waves of fatigue swept up like waves, and the wound on his shoulder did not hurt much, but his eyelids began to grow heavier.
"We understand what you mean, and we agree with you very much, but my marshal, I think you should take a good rest now, even if you have this idea, you need a healthy body to complete it. Rest assured, Your thoughts will surely come true." Hans said with a smile when he saw the tiredness that Xu Jun showed. Then he and Mueller lay down slowly with Xu Jun.
"Well, Hans, you agree with me. That's great. How much do our soldiers need weapons suitable for them now..." Xu Jun murmured a few words and then entered a deep dream. .
Leaving Colonel Surend to look after him, Hans quietly left the medical car. After leaving the carriage, Mueller couldn't help but let out a long breath.
"Marshal is really a great leader." Mueller sighed.
"Yeah, in this case, I still want to equip the soldiers on the front line with the right weapons. Fighting this kind of commander is the glory that a soldier wants most." Hans also sighed.
"But I think that the marshal makes me feel even more unfathomable. I can think of the development of weapons from my injury. I really admire it, and it seems that I have never wanted to keep up with his ideas in my life. He can do it every time. Creating miracles in front of us, I sometimes really believe that he is indeed the apostle sent by God to save us." Weierle shook his head and sighed.
"Of course, my Chief of Staff, but it does make sense to think about the Marshal's idea now. If we are equipped with fifty such light anti-tank guns in each company, I will gather 20 mm guns to defend important areas. This will increase the intensity of the attack on the enemy by 50% to 60%." Mueller said excitedly.
"Yes, your firepower may be increased by 50% or 60%. My general, did you not listen to the marshal? This weapon is for infantry who may not be covered by anti-tank guns. Hans said with a smile.
"I said how do you discuss these things again now, and you have to wait until the Marshal solves the current problem. We have been delaying here for a whole day now, time is more precious to us, you are now What should be considered is how we arrived at our destination within the scheduled time. My first lieutenant, what do you think." Weiler asked Hans lightly.
"Well? Look at the situation now. Let's sleep here for a while today. Marshal may not be able to withstand the bumps on the road. The march is not safe at night. I think we will stay here for one night and tomorrow morning. Let’s take a look at the marshal’s physical condition. If the marshal’s injury is stable, we will start early tomorrow, and then don’t be delayed on the road. We speed up and continue to march. I think we should be able to reach our destination according to our original planned time. It's half a day away."
"Have you seen the map?"
"I have seen it. The road behind it is not bad. We should be able to catch up."
"Hopefully, we can't let our colleagues wait for it. You know that the man has decided to go to the French front to personally supervise the war. Our colleagues have sent a dozen urgency." Weyler Speaking anxiously.
"Ah, that man went to the front line. When did he get the news." Hans looked at Weierle in surprise.
"Just half an hour ago, when Mueller was fighting a little Polish girl."
"Then why didn't you report this to the Marshal?"
"Now the report is not only useful for worrying him, according to our current plan implementation, it seems that it doesn't matter whether the person goes to the front line or not, and it's only good for us to run out of that fortress, I think you guys don't It will make him run back so easily." Weierle said with a smile.
"That's right, you're right, Your Excellency Chief of Staff." Mueller nodded and agreed.
"Okay, here, I'm a little interested in the Polish girl you caught. Can you take me to see her? I want to interrogate her well." Weierle said to Mueller with a smile.
"Does the chief of staff want anything from her? Then let's go now, and I want to get a good look at the interrogation method of your chief of staff." Mueller replied with a smile.
Then the three German Brigadier Generals walked to the lorry holding the prisoners of war with laughter.
