This chapter is yesterday's fifth watch.,Monthly pass, monthly pass, monthly pass......

***********

The Lautel area was one of the strongest fortified areas of the Maginot line, the other being the Metz area.

THESE TWO AREAS WERE CONSTRUCTED TO RESIST DIRECT HITS FROM 420MM CALIBER MORTAR SHELLS, AND THE DEFENSIVE LINE WAS FULL OF TANK TRENCHES, CLIFFS, CLIFFS, AND METAL AND CONCRETE PILES, REINFORCED BY MINEFIELDS. The anti-infantry has a combination of electrified barbed wire and mines, and it can be said that it is more difficult to pass through here than to climb to the sky.

Lieutenant General Lu Manlin was right, and Lehman was assigned to this fortified area.

When Qin Chuan saw Lehman, he was stunned by the rank of second lieutenant on Lehman's shoulder.

"I remember the last time I saw you, you were a corporal!" Qin Chuan said: "Now that you're a second lieutenant?!" ”

Qin Chuan looked back at Lieutenant General Lu Manlin.

Lieutenant General Lu Manlin shrugged his shoulders and replied: "Don't look at me like that, Lieutenant Colonel, this is what Lehman deserves!" ”

"Please, sir!" Lehman protested: "I've always been the best performer in the army!" ”

"Of course, Lehman!" Qin Chuan replied: "I don't mean anything else, you did a good job!" ”

Qin Chuan felt a little ashamed of his previous suspicions, after all, it was a new recruit unit stationed in the "Maginot Line", and Lehman could indeed become a second lieutenant if he performed well.

Of course, this does not preclude the fact that Lehman is the younger brother of the "legendary sergeant" and is more valued by the commander.

"I want you to see someone, sir!" Lehman said nervously.

"Who?" Qin Chuan was a little puzzled.

Lehman pulled out a nurse from the crowd standing behind him who didn't even dare to catch their breath...... Because the light in the underground fortifications was dark, Qin Chuan didn't notice her.

"Her name is Denisha, sir!" "She's a nurse in the medical team, and I met him when I was wounded!" Lehman said. ”

"You're hurt?" Qin Chuan was more concerned about this.

"Yes, Lieutenant Colonel!" Denisha replied: "It was an accident, the ammunition depot caught fire for some unknown reason, Lehman was very brave enough to extinguish the fire, he saved us all!" ”

At this time, Qin Chuan felt ashamed from the bottom of his heart.

"I'm sorry, Lehman!" Qin Chuan patted Lehman's shoulder: "I blame you!" ”

"No, sir!" Lehman replied, "You're not wrong about anything!" ”

"What do you mean?"

"Because I was promoted because of you, sir!" Lehman replied: "I was completely frightened at that moment, I didn't know what I was going to do, because the ammunition depot could explode at any moment...... However, I thought about being your brother, and I thought about what you would do if it were you. So I did what I had to do......"

Qin Chuan nodded appreciatively.

This may be what Rommel asked Qin Chuan to do, to set an example among the recruits and even among the German soldiers on the entire line of defense, so that they would burst out with stronger combat effectiveness.

"Nice to meet you, Denisha!" Qin Chuan quipped: "My younger brother will always cause some trouble, and you will suffer it in the future!" ”

The soldiers in the dormitory couldn't help but laugh out loud, and Dinisha was a little embarrassed by the laughter.

At this time, Qin Chuan found out that Denisha was a very beautiful girl, and secretly said that Lehman had a good eye, and on the other hand, he also felt that Lehman had grown up unconsciously.

Just when Qin Chuan was about to say goodbye to Lehman, there was a sudden explosion of "boom", followed by a burst of gunshots, and the lights above his head flickered on and off.

"What's going on?" Lieutenant General Lu Manlin asked the guards beside him.

"I don't know, General!" The guard replied, and immediately separated the two to check on the situation. But as soon as he walked out, he was knocked to the ground by a shuttle of bullets.

"Close the door!" Qin Chuan shouted.

When the guard heard this, he immediately closed the door, but before he could close it, he heard the explosion of a grenade outside...... Apparently, the grenade was hit on the door and bounced back.

If it weren't for Qin Chuan's quick reaction, this grenade would have been thrown into the dormitory.

"What's going on?" Lieutenant General Lu Manlin shouted: "This is in the defensive line, how did the enemy get in?" ”

"Didn't you clean the French technicians?" Qin Chuan asked.

Lieutenant General Lu Manlin couldn't help but be stunned, and after a while he replied: "They said they wanted to work here, and they needed this job...... I think what they say is true! ”

"God!" Qin Chuan and Lehman got up and pressed against the door while ordering the others: "Everyone, listen to my command!" ”

"Yes, sir!"

"What should we do?" Lieutenant General Lu Manlin asked.

"They're supposed to be coming for me!" Qin Chuan said.

"Why?" Lieutenant General Lu Manlin asked.

"Because they know I'm going to come and see Lehman!" Qin Chuan replied: "So a trap was set here!" ”

Lieutenant General Lu Manlin was speechless for a moment.

Qin Chuan looked around, there were only seventeen people in total, including Lieutenant General Lu Manlin.

Lehman handed Qin Chuan a gun and asked, "What should we do, sir?" ”

"Guard the door!" Lieutenant General Lu Manlin said: "Our men will soon come when they hear the gunshots!" ”

"No!" Qin Chuan said: "We must rush out!" All of us are crammed into this small space, and it only takes a grenade to blow us up or stun us, and then they can do whatever they want! ”

Lehman nodded in agreement, it was not difficult to hold the door, but it was not enough to stop the enemy from throwing grenades inside...... The enemy just needs to blow the door open, and then the grenades will fly in like raindrops.

The only thing that luckily was that the dormitory door was a sturdy iron door, and they couldn't blow it open so easily for a while.

"But...... How can we rush out? Lieutenant General Lu Manlin's voice trembled a little: "God, I really shouldn't believe these Frenchmen!" ”

Looking around the dormitory, when he saw a faucet in the corner, Qin Chuan ordered: "Release the water!" ”

"What?" Lehman couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this.

"Turn on the faucet!" Qin Chuan ordered: "Let the water flow out, quickly!" ”

"Yes, sir!" Without saying a word, Lehman turned on the faucet, and then found a few more planks to block the other direction, making it easier for the overflowing water to leak through the cracks in the door.

"Why?" Lieutenant General Lu Manlin asked: "Can we wash them away with water?" ”

However, when Lieutenant General Lu Manlin saw Qin Chuan pulling the wire from the ceiling, he understood.

"God, that's a good idea!" Lieutenant General Lu Manlin hurriedly jumped onto the bed.

Qin Chuan pulled out the exposed wires from the electric light and whispered to the soldiers: "Listen, everyone go to bed, keep the soles of your feet dry, I will put the wires in the water when the gate is blown open, and then listen to my order to charge, understand?" ”

"Understood!"
