"Lai, I don't want to die yet......" Corporal Huborough twitched and pulled Li Wei's arm, his trembling voice revealing his will to live.

"No...... No...... You won't die......" Li Wei calmed Corporal Hubl and immediately took out a golden needle to stop the bleeding for the latter.

It was a day in January 1944 in the forest of Bastogne, Belgium, where the 2nd Battalion was held by the command post of the divisional headquarters, and Rievey knew that this was the most famous 'Battle of Bastogne' in the history of World War II.

After the Battle of Crossroads, Captain Winters took over as administrative staff officer of the 2nd Battalion, as their former staff officer, Major Horton, was shot and killed while defending against the German assault on the battalion headquarters command post.

Although Captain Winters wanted to continue leading Company E on the front lines, he accepted the appointment at the behalf-handed orders from Colonel Zink.

Naturally, Colonel Zinke was remembered for his outstanding performance in several battles, and immediately appointed him as the commander of Company E, but he was stumped by Le Wei's rank. Because Levy had the same rank as the three of them were lieutenants, and if he was not promoted, it would mean that Lieutenant Lipton, Lieutenant Wilson, and Lieutenant Compton would have to be transferred to other companies, which was not a picture that Colonel Sink or Captain Winters wanted to see;

But if he was promoted, it would mean that Captain Winters would have to be promoted to the rank of colonel, and then he would have to be promoted to captain, which would be difficult.

In the end, Li Wei got a promotion that didn't go up or down, quasi-captain. It was an unofficial wartime assignment, with the same treatment as a captain but no formal appointment paperwork, and as recorded in the military system, Le Wei still held the rank of lieutenant.

At the same time, the first thing Li Wei did when he was promoted to the commander of Company E was to approve an application for a company transfer, and the applicant was still an acquaintance, that is, Lieutenant Spierre, who had crossed paths before. After the First World War in Normandy, Lieutenant Spierre officially took over D Company and became the company commander of D Company.

Lieutenant Spierre was an officer who fought bravely and dared to stand on the front lines, as can be seen from the Battle of Brick Manor, but Leeway was curious as to why he sought a transfer, and this was the only problem Levy had in interviewing Lieutenant Spear.

"I wanted to be able to fight alongside me with a real army, rather than standing alone in front and resisting alone. Hearing Lieutenant Spiel's answer, Li Wei finally understood the lieutenant's strange attack method during the previous battle at Brick Manor.

"Lieutenant, I have only one indicator for you, to try to save the lives of my brothers. Li Wei smiled and stretched out his hand and said.

"Yes, sir, I'll remember, Lai. Lieutenant Spierre gave a formal military salute, then shook Li Wei's hand and said.

Lieutenant Spierre was officially transferred from D Company to E Company and served as platoon commander in the third platoon, while Lieutenant Compton served as platoon commander in the second platoon. In order to balance the personnel of the platoon and make it easier for the newly arrived Lieutenant Spierre to take over the second platoon, Li Wei decided to make a major reshuffle of the personnel of the three platoons, and by the way, he rearranged the personnel of each platoon, and then he did not forget his promise to the recruits before the Enhofen parachute jump, let them try what 'Sauber training' is, and take the opportunity to train the recruits.

Promoted to the rank of second lieutenant, he was transferred to the second platoon to continue as lieutenant Compton's deputy, while Sergeant Lenny continued to serve as the master chief of the second platoon;

Grant was promoted to the rank of second lieutenant and transferred to the first platoon as Lieutenant Wilson's deputy, and Sergeant Martin continued to serve as the master chief of the first platoon;

Talbot was promoted to the rank of second lieutenant and remained in the third platoon as the new platoon commander, and Lieutenant Spierre's deputy, sent Sergeant Kandy as the master chief of the third platoon.

Drawing his gaze back to the Baston Forest, Li Wei's golden needle accurately pierced several acupuncture points in Sergeant Huborough's legs and waist, slowing down the blood loss in the thigh artery he had been hit.

"I have to perform vascular surgery for Hubler, otherwise it will be a dead end, and now I can only delay his blood loss. Li Wei said to Eugene's military doctor, and the latter looked embarrassed when he heard this.

In normal times, this request would have been possible, but now, Levy, Eugene, or any of the soldiers of the E Company would have understood their situation.

Company E, or 101st Division, was now surrounded here in Bastone, facing countless Tiger tanks, Leopards, armored artillery vehicles, Stuka dive bombers, and nearly a and a half divisions of German infantry.

"I'll try to find a way...... "Eugene knew that although this matter was difficult, it was not without a solution. There was a town at the edge of the forest, and there was a church in the town, where the 101st Division was the only healing house, but it was a long way away.

"Thank you, Medic, Buck, immediately have the rear send a jeep to transport Hubler to the rear," Lieutenant Compton immediately replied at hearing Leyway's instructions.

"This son...... See if he dares to play Luge in the future...... I really don't know what he thinks, he didn't even open the safety bolt, and just put Ruger in his trouser pocket. Li Wei picked up the Ruger left behind by Sergeant Hubl, and after unloading the magazine, he shook his head and smiled bitterly.

"Malachi, it's yours for now! As for the magazine, leave it to me for safekeeping, I don't want a second misfire. After Levy threw Ruger to Sergeant Marat, he teased.

"Thanks, Lai!" Sergeant Marath shook the Luger gun in his hand triumphantly and winked at Li Wei in thanks.

"Huh~~~~" At this time, a scream resounded throughout the forest!

"German mortars !! everyone, looking for cover!! "Levy shouted.

The crowd hurriedly ran back to their foxholes, and due to the lack of personnel, the trenches designed by Levy came in handy again, allowing Company E to hold the line and repel the German troops who tried to reconnoiter twice.

After a round of bombing, the Germans stopped their bombing campaign again, the second time of the day. Since the presence of E Company, it has been bombed daily by the Germans, trying to break down the encircled 101st Division mentally.

"Are there any casualties?" shouted Li Wei.

"Lai, come here!" Lieutenant Compton's voice came from a distance, and it sounded urgent.

"What's the matter, Buck...... Omg !!Old gonorrhea!Jotoy !!" Dawn rushed to the place where Lieutenant Compton was standing, and saw him standing there stunned, intending to ask what was going on, only to find his best friend and comrade lying in a pool of blood. Sergeant Goneri, whose right foot was below the thigh, was left like a white bone, and he held back the pain and did not cry out, but from his violently trembling thigh, he was not having a good time, and Corporal Chotoi lost his right leg directly, and Dr. Eugene was giving him an emergency bandage.

"Hey, I'm done! I'm sure I'll go back to China first!" Sergeant Gurneri naturally saw Li Wei, and pretended to be calm and joked.

"Yes, you won, old gonorrhea. Here, old man, I'll give you the pain first. Li Wei endured the grief in his heart and pretended to be amused.

"Lai, this is the ugliest smile I've ever seen you......" Sergeant Goneri said.

"No way, who let your old gonorrhea win me first, this is no longer sad. Li Wei squatted down, took out the golden needle, and immediately pierced Sergeant Goneri's leg and waist acupoints to slow down the blood loss and pain.

"Old man, I hope to see you again in the future!!" Before being carried away by the medical staff, Sergeant Goneri patted Li Wei on the shoulder heavily, and said seriously with a blessing in his tone.

"Hopefully one day...... If there really is such a day......" Looking at Sergeant Goneri who was being carried away, Li Wei whispered.
