The soldiers cheered, jumped out of the car and ran into the vegetable patch, grabbing one here and there, and soon picking a large pile.

The only thing that is certain is that the diet of foreigners is relatively monotonous, either mashed potatoes, baked potatoes or ketchup, so the vast majority of German soldiers choose cucumbers, tomatoes, carrots and so on.

Qin Chuan walked into the vegetable field and chose a few cabbages, radish, lentils, garlic, peppers and the like.

"Major!" The baker held a few cucumbers and gnawed half of them in his mouth, looked at the things in Qin Chuan's hand curiously, and asked, "Why did you choose these?" ”

"Eat, of course!" Qin Chuan replied.

The baker shrugged his shoulders, as if he didn't understand Qin Chuan's approach. Others, including Eberhard, had the same idea, but because Qin Chuan was a major, they didn't say anything.

Of course, Qin Chuan understands that among them, especially chili peppers, not to mention Europeans, even in the Soviet Union, few people eat them.

But soon they found out that they were wrong.

Because it didn't take long for a plate of fried lentils, a cup to be exact...... Since there is no suitable cutlery, it can only be loaded with cups and helmets. Then there are fragrant stir-fried greens, and spicy and crispy cold radishes.

Then use two branches to cut chopsticks, and Qin Chuan will eat it with bread with relish...... It is indeed a bit inappropriate to go with bread, but it can only be eaten, after all, green vegetables cannot fill the stomach.

"Major!" One by one, the soldiers came up to smell the fragrance, and their faces looked confused.

Qin Chuan nodded at them, and then a few people immediately made a move...... You gobbled it up one bite at a time, and let out some admiration in your mouth as you ate it.

"Great!" Alfredo said, "I didn't know these greens could make such a delicious meal!" ”

"Is it because we haven't eaten greens in a long time?" Werner said: "Why do I think it's the best thing I've ever eaten?! ”

"God!" "I couldn't believe I was eating chili, I always thought I wouldn't want to touch it in my life, but now...... I realized how stupid I was! ”

……

Chinese food has a knack for this, and individual items such as chili, garlic or radish are not delicious, but if they are mixed together, it will bring an extraordinary impact to the taste buds.

As a result, that night, radishes, peppers, and the like that no one cared about suddenly became popular, and everyone had a full vegetable meal...... Fresh vegetables may not be anything to ordinary people, but they are tempting enough for people like Qin Chuan who haven't been able to eat them for months or even years on the battlefield.

Even the next day, when the troops took to the march again, there were piles of turnips and cabbage piled up on tanks and cars.

In fact, the march on the second day did not go much, and after only three hours and more than ten kilometers, it joined the armored forces of the 6th Army, which was marching from the other side.

At first, both sides were startled, and saw a group of tanks on the opposite side coming up from a distance, thinking that it was an enemy tank, and without saying a word, they quickly launched a battle formation to prepare for battle, and even fired a few mortar shells on the opposite side...... The fighting was intense, and many of the 6th Army were newly replenished recruits.

When Colonel Slain could see the model of the opposite tank in the telescope and then the cross, he hurriedly ordered: "Don't fire, it's your own people!" ”

A German soldier was still standing on a tank waving a military flag, so the opposite side also realized that it was friendly forces.

It was a unit of the 6th Panzer Division of the 14th Panzer Corps of the 16th Army, and the division commander was Hans. Major General Hube.

The two teams were very happy when they met, because it meant that they had completed the semi-encirclement of Stalingrad.

However, the meeting was not very friendly, as Werner was very unhappy with the mortar shells in the opening scene.

"Hey!" Werner shouted at the soldiers on the opposite side from a distance of more than ten meters: "Who fired the mortar?" You should find him out and kick him out of the team, or you'll be killed by him sooner or later! ”

Werner's words, though with an element of anger and jokes, are not entirely unreasonable, because the soldier should be able to control himself and wait for orders from his superiors before acting.

Seeing Werner's tone in a somewhat arrogant and gunpowder tone, he replied without admitting defeat: "You should thank them for stopping in time, otherwise you will be annihilated by this time!" ”

The officers and soldiers on Qin Chuan's side couldn't help but look at each other when they heard this, and then suddenly burst into laughter, making the officers and soldiers on the opposite side laugh a little inexplicably.

It didn't take long for them to know what the problem was.

"Nice to meet you!" Colonel Slane stepped forward and shook the hand of one of the majors and said, "We are from the 21st Panzer Division, and I am the commander of the 1st Infantry Regiment!" ”

"God!" The major looked at Colonel Slane in surprise, then at the officers and soldiers around him, and said, "You are the 1st Infantry Regiment?" Victory at the Battle of Holm and the 1st Infantry Regiment to Baku? ”

"Yes!" Colonel Slain puffed up his chest proudly, and then replied playfully, "I think I heard ...... just now You say you want to annihilate us......"

The officers and soldiers burst into laughter again.

The major gave an embarrassed look at the equally stunned soldier behind him, and replied, "I'm sorry, Colonel, we didn't know it was you. I want to ......"

As he spoke, the major glanced at the tanks of the 21st Panzer Division not far away, and then said: "Maybe they made such a judgment because of your tanks!" ”

Slane replied with a look, and then realized what the problem was...... The tanks of the 21st Panzer Division were loaded with cabbage and turnips, and for fear that they would fall off on the road, the soldiers also strung them with ropes, bags or even trees, which really did not look like a well-trained army.

Qin Chuan explained: "Major, didn't you notice that it was a disguise? ”

"Oh yes!" Colonel Slain nodded heavily: "That's a disguise we made!" ”

"Yes, Colonel!" The Major replied solemnly: "They must be!" ”

Then everyone burst into laughter.

Colonel Slein reported to his superiors that it was obviously inappropriate for the two armoured divisions to be placed in the same place, so the 21st Panzer Division was again transferred back to the state farm, that is, to the place where the camp had been held last night...... Of course, the German soldiers were happy to do this, because it was a treasure mountain for them.

Rommel's order to Major General Stryker was: "To carry out reconnaissance on Stalingrad to pay attention to enemy movements, we need a few days of preparation, and then it's time for Stalingrad to moan under the tracks of our tanks!" ”
