Chapter 214: It's an American
"Get up, there's snow on the ground, and I don't want you to get frostbitten. Pen Γ fun Γ Pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ info" Yang Mingzhi looked down.
"You'd better kill me, anyway, we're going to be killed by you after all, right? Your promises have not been kept. This sentence was said in English, and the doctor looked at Yang Mingzhi with angry eyes.
"No, non-combatants and combatants, we're very separate, you're not the same as the wounded. But I do have to admit that I deceived you, only this time I will not deceive again, because you are these doctors and nurses who can serve us. Saying that, Yang Mingzhi slowly squatted down. Friend, I am Chinese, a few years ago or your friend is not? It's just that you turned to cooperate with the Japanese, and you immediately became our enemies. You see, in the war between countries, in the end, we ordinary people have become cannon fodder, why should you continue to be persistent and serve our Soviet Red Army, you medical personnel can be protected by the Red Army. β
The doctor was skeptical when he heard these words, and he did not dare to decisively trust the person in front of him who claimed to be Chinese.
"What's your name? Also, why do you speak English? Yang Mingzhi continued to ask.
Then the doctor shook the snow off his body and stood up, and said, "I am Hans Willis Hungerberg, a doctor, and as for why I speak English, because I used to be American." β
"What? American! Yang Mingzhi was very surprised, he closed his eyes, and his thoughts spun rapidly. Suddenly, a thought came to mind, and he asked. "You were an American? What state do you live in? Virginia? Ohio? Carolina? Yang Mingzhi listed a lot, which really shocked this person surnamed Hangelberg.
Yang Mingzhi talked for a long time, only to see that this person didn't say a word, staring at himself like a light bulb.
"Why? Why do you know so much? Chinese? Aren't the Chinese all a bunch of fools? Your country is very weak, full of illiterates, and you have been fighting for decades before the Japanese attacked you! β
"That's right! What you're saying is true, but I'm a special case! I'm not illiterate, and when it comes to the United States, Germany, France, and England, I know a little bit about it. Don't compare me to everyone else. Yang Mingzhi took a step forward and put his face in front of this person. Remember my Chinese name, Yang ~ Ming ~ Zhi, Soviet name Pyotr Ivanovich Berekov. Standing in front of you is not just a Chinese, but also a deputy division commander of the Soviet Red Army. β
Yang Mingzhi put on a majestic posture in front of this person and continued to ask, "Now you can tell me your reason." β
"Well, it's an adventure to meet someone like you, maybe you're not like the rest of the Soviets! No! Since you are not from the Soviet Union, you should not order us to be abused. β
Hangelberg tells his own story, and his story is the same as that of the thousands of Germans who emigrated to the United States.
The Germans were devastated by the Napoleonic Wars and the Prussian War to unify Germany, and a large number of Germans could not live in a chaotic land, and turned their attention to the New World. They dragged their families to the Low Countries, from Holland to the United States, where German caravans were the pioneers of the westward expansion.
The Anglo-Saxons, the Irish, they mostly stayed on the east coast, and the inland areas were almost all Germans, so much so that the United States was forced to make it mandatory for German-speaking people in the west to use English, in order to prevent the United States from being divided by culture, which would lead to a national division and another civil war.
At the end of the First World War, the defeated Germany was sanctioned by the League of Nations, and the people lived in hardship. A large number of capable Germans chose to immigrate to live in the United States.
This is the case with Hangelberg, who is of German descent in the United States, and whose family has immigrated to the United States for more than half a century.
"It's hard to imagine that since you are an American, you still have to travel thousands of miles back to Germany." Yang Mingzhi shook his head.
"This is the Repatriation Act, in which the FΓΌhrer calls on Germans scattered all over the world to return to their homeland. I am German, so I returned to Germany with the aim of building a strong Germany. β
"Strong Germany? So you're going to invade, you're going to slaughter?! Yang Mingzhi's emotions were immediately ignited, which really startled this Hangelberg.
But this man was not as ruthless as the SS, and Hangelberg bowed his head silently. "I've thought a lot about what you've said. But I am a military doctor, and I was ordered to go to the front with the army. But I'm not a soldier, and I can't take up arms, if anything, it's my lancet. I didn't kill a single Soviet, my girls and I were just ordered to stay in the hospital and treat the wounded. β
"And then, you healed the wounded, and they went back to the battlefield to continue slaughtering our men?" Yang Mingzhi suppressed the anger in his heart, raised his right arm and pointed in all directions. "I don't think you know what your compatriots have done. All the villages in the direction I am pointing have been slaughtered and burned by your fighters, and the clothes worn by your wounded soldiers have been looted from Soviet citizens. Yes, you just robbed and then let them freeze to death in the cold wind in their single clothes. This is you German soldiers, and you are their accomplice. β
Yang Mingzhi took the opportunity to vent his anger and anger. In Belarus, it has been eight months since he arrived here by train in April, and with the outbreak of war, he and his Belarusian comrades-in-arms have fought side by side, and it has become a second home.
This Hangelberg claimed to be from Colorado, which is already the Western Desert region of the United States. This person also inquired about Yang Mingzhi, of course, it was impossible to tell him his secret, so he sent it away without a word of comment.
Yang Mingzhi finally asked, "Hans, there are two paths in front of you now. First, you and your doctors and nurses will work with us decisively. I can send soldiers to escort you back to our barracks, and you will continue to serve as field doctors, treating the sick and wounded of our Soviet soldiers and civilians, and we will not only ensure your safety, but also give you reasonable food and warm housing, and will not abuse you. Second, if you and your people refuse to cooperate, then the dead wounded soldiers are your fate. β
This simple multiple-choice question was in front of Hungerberg, and now he had to think about not only himself, but also the safety of others.
Especially for those who have just turned 20, many of them are members of the German Girls' Union and volunteer to go to the front as nurses. If they refuse to cooperate, I am afraid that an even more tragic end awaits them. Hangelberg did not doubt that the Soviets would do the most cruel things, and the Chinese in front of him were almost no different from the Soviets, in short, they had a deep hatred with the Germans.
"Alright! I choose to cooperate! I also hope that you will keep your promises. β
Yang Mingzhi let out a long sigh, "Very good, now you can comfort your people." Make it clear to them, I don't want any unpleasantness. β
Because of the sudden battle, many German girls were frightened. They already knew that these Soviet soldiers had killed the wounded they had taken care of, and they were immediately full of resentment towards the Soviets, and they were very worried in their hearts, as if this group of Soviet soldiers with rifles would kill them at any time.
They were on the verge of a mental breakdown, until Hungerberg arrived, saying to them: "For the sake of everyone's lives, I have chosen to cooperate with the Soviets, and we will soon follow the Soviets back to their barracks." This is the best option for everyone, otherwise they will kill us immediately. β
"You're crazy! You traitor! We are noble Aryans, not slaves of this herd of Slavic pigs! A German girl scolded.
"Greta! Shut up! Do you want to die now? You think you're going to be shot by a bullet?! You can die if you want, but you have to think about other people, do your forty or so sisters also want to die in humiliation? β
As soon as the words fell, the girls burst into tears. Even the Soviet soldiers on guard did not quite understand why this group of Germans suddenly wailed. Is it Yingxiao?! Suddenly, a company of soldiers surrounded the crowd and stabbed them at the crowd in case of an emergency.
The girl named Greta stopped talking, and she herself was terrified. The so-called mouth is very hard, but the instinct of her body drives her to sit on the ground honestly.
As soon as Yang Mingzhi finished a meeting with the officers, he learned that there was something unusual about the captives. I trotted all the way over, and I was faced with the crying of a group of German girls.
"Did you do anything to them?" Yang Mingzhi stared at the onlookers.
"No, we don't, these women are suddenly like this for some reason." A soldier said.
Hangelberg explained that the co-authorship was still too much psychological pressure.
"Well, you translate my words and tell your people that we, the Soviet Red Army, need doctors and nurses. As long as we cooperate, there will be no threat of death. As long as you really cooperate, we will even treat what you are doing as our own. β
Hungerberg repeated that the women had no choice but to believe that the words of the Soviets were true.
As night had fallen, the whole army had crossed the road to the north side of the road for safety, and the prisoners had been escorted there.
The warriors took all the loot they could find, took all the medicines they could use, and when they arrived at the place where they were sleeping, they rested immediately.
The captured doctors and nurses were under the care of the fighters, but they certainly wouldn't be able to take part in the next move. There were still more than 1,000 people in the army, and it was still necessary to send some soldiers to escort these 40 people to the south.
There will be a company of soldiers to escort the prisoners on their way back, and they will be ordered not to be detrimental to the prisoners on the way back, and that they are to be escorted back as intact as possible, unless one of them escapes.
That night, Yang Mingzhi seemed to lie down and sleep without heart and lungs, he knew that the most brutal battle was coming, coordinates Homnitch, and theoretically the war would start tomorrow. So whether they can be safe depends on the performance of their more than 1,000 people.
Therefore, Yang Mingzhi did not reveal the war intentions of his troops to Hangelberg, and the man did not ask much. Of course, if this man knew that the target of the attack would be Lechicha, then his life would have to be spared.
In the next battle, the sneak attack on Lechica created a posture of the Soviet army attacking this small city with heavy troops, which made the German army attacking Homnitch in a dilemma, and this good show of encircling Wei to save Zhao could be staged. (To be continued.) )
