Chapter 386: Oolong
Return to the beachhead in Dunkirk.
Montgomery couldn't help but look back at her when he heard the nurse's exclamation, and then breathed a sigh of relief.
The nurse was fine, just frightened, and nothing serious, which made Montgomery, who was full of gentlemanly demeanor, not feel guilty.
????“ There are airborne troops ?! Montgomery was running outside the chaotic hospital when he raised his head to look up at the situation in the air, and was stunned, and the parachutes of the white flowers appeared one after another in the distance.
"Boom ......" A hit ME-109 fighter slipped down not far away, and billowing smoke fell directly at the entrance of the hospital 100 meters away.
???? Seeing this, Montgomery couldn't help but scold: "shit"
While scolding, Montgomery also dragged the frightened nurse to the ground quickly to the ground to mitigate the damage caused by the oncoming blast wave.
Several others ran after Montgomery, and several of his subordinates, when they saw the division commander lying on the ground, also followed Montgomery's movements.
With a bang, the falling fighter exploded at the entrance of the hospital, billowing gunpowder smoke into the sky, and the shock wave from the explosion was also mixed with thick smoke and dust, and the pavement was scattered.
The German fighters in the air had turned to strangle the RAF fighters who had rushed to fight for air supremacy. The German Stuka bombers, on the other hand, continued to ravage the British soldiers on the beachhead. For today's mission, the German bomber group prepared a total of 15,000 high-explosive bombs and 30,000 incendiary bombs, and now they are beckoning these guys to the beachhead.
Most of the British officers and soldiers, completely attracted by the heavy bombardment, did not notice the situation on the outskirts of Dunkirk - the paratroopers of the German troops had quietly fallen to the ground.
Although Montgomery was aware of the actions of the German paratroopers, he was now a standard bare-bones commander.
So he waited for a while, and when Montgomery felt that the crisis had passed for the time being, he immediately took the nurse who was pressing under him with one hand, and solemnly instructed her: "Miss, you go to the ruins of the hospital to take refuge first, and don't come out if you have nothing to do." Is it clear? ”
The hospital that had already been bombed would not be bombed again, Montgomery comforted his conscience. After all, his real intention was to get rid of the burden of female nurses. In the rush just now, I can't ignore it. But now, the crisis has passed for the time being, and the German bombers will not visit here again for a while, and it is not contrary to his gentlemanly demeanor to let the nurse find a way to earn a living on her own.
????“ Yes? That, I'...... All right! The nurse wanted to say something, but after seeing Montgomery's unquestioning gaze, she could only nod helplessly, and answered him: "That...... General Montgomery, do you know where General Gort is? I want to go and hide from my uncle. ”
Lord Gott? Uncle?
Montgomery suddenly found himself in what seemed to be an opportunity.
"You mean, Lord Goth is your uncle, and you still know me and know my name?" Montgomery asked the nurse.
"Yes, that's right." The nurse's face flushed, and she said shyly: "I have liked you for a long time, general, and this time I also specifically found my uncle and asked him to allow me to join the medical team of the expeditionary force, and then find a chance to meet you......."
Montgomery didn't listen to the second half of the nurse's words, because he only needed to know the first half!
Perhaps, if he returns to China, he will have to find Lord Goth through the relationship of this nurse.
???? Montgomery glanced at the direction of the German paratroopers jumping, frowned and said, "Miss, look over there, the German paratroopers have landed one after another. It's dangerous for you to stay here, or I'll take you to Lord Goth and protect you along the way. ”
Immediately afterwards, Montgomery ordered several of his subordinates who were following him: "You go find some weapons, organize men to use the ruins of the hospital to establish a blocking position, and when I reach the headquarters, I will find a way for Lord Goth to send someone to meet you." ”
Several civilian officers of the divisional headquarters who had fled to Dunkirk with Montgomery rolled their eyes and reluctantly ran towards the already half-ruined hospital amid the roaring explosions. These civilian officers at the division headquarters were stunned by the destructive scene of the German sneak attack in front of them. If they hadn't known Montgomery's temperament and were afraid that the general would have pulled out his gun and killed him now, they would never have turned back against the German paratroopers.
???? Montgomery watched their departing figures, and whispered guiltily as a reminder, "Be careful...... Alas......"
???? As soon as they were gone, Montgomery turned and ran with the nurse to Lord Goth's hidden commander hidden under the broken walls. There, there was a small bomb shelter converted from a cellar, where Lord Gort was supposed to be sheltering from the air raids.
On the way to the air-raid shelter, Montgomery could see the sound of anti-aircraft guns banging along the way, the thick smoke of gunpowder smoked the soldiers' faces black, and the anti-aircraft machine guns fired into the sky without stopping.
???? Suddenly, a soldier rushed at a low-flying fighter jet and kept firing with an anti-aircraft machine gun, until the fighter sparked, and then got carried away and shouted: "I hit, I hit ..."
????“ When the fighter plane hit by the ...... crashed and burst into flames, the Royal Air Force logo suddenly appeared in the dark smoke.
The soldier who got carried away and yelled was dumbfounded, feeling that he was chasing the fighter fighter he had been fighting for a long time, and it turned out to be his own person!
The oolong joke is a bit big, right?!
???? Beside the soldier, a second lieutenant grabbed a bullet casing on the ground, angrily threw it at the anti-aircraft machine gunner, and yelled: "You pig, blind or what's the matter?" How can anyone chase their own plane? You idiot waiting for a military verdict! ”
????“ Buzzing ...... "A German ME-109 fighter that seemed to be returning from the front fired at the anti-aircraft machine gun position, and Soso's bullets shot a long wave of spray, and Montgomery, who didn't have time to think about it, was another graceful donkey rolling and pulling the female nurse to the ground.
???? Not far from them, the soldier with a double platoon of anti-aircraft heavy machine guns on his shoulders was immediately shot into a hornet's nest, and this time, he died under enemy fire, and he no longer had to be tried by a military court for firing his own fighter by mistake.
