"What are you doing here, ma'am?" Qin Chuan put away the gun.

The French woman couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, glanced at Qin Chuan, and asked without answering, "Is there any smoke, lieutenant?" ”

Qin Chuan touched his pocket, took out a pack of cigarettes, took out one, and handed it over.

The French woman took the cigarette, looked at it, and said with some surprise: "You came from the battlefield?" ”

"Yes!" Qin Chuan couldn't help but be stunned: "How do you know?" ”

The French woman raised the cigarette in her hand, shrugged her shoulders, and said, "They smoke French cigarettes, and you smoke Egyptian cigarettes!" ”

The Frenchwoman was right, because of the supply problems of the German troops on the Alexandria Line, a considerable part of the soldiers got "pyramid" cigarettes produced in Egypt.

"You're observant, ma'am!" Qin Chuan said.

"No!" The Frenchwoman shook her head and replied, "I will know this because my father was a tobacconist!" ”

"Oh!" Qin Chuan turned around and looked at the dance hall while lighting a cigarette for the French woman, and said, "So ......"

"Yes!" The Frenchwoman replied: "You guessed it right, my father brought me here, and he wanted to know more German officers...... In other words, I'm a card in his hand, or a plaything in the hands of you Germans! ”

Qin Chuan couldn't help but be stunned for a while: "Madam......"

"So, why are you here?" The French woman looked at Qin Chuan suspiciously.

"You know!" Qin Chuan replied: "I came down from the battlefield, so I ......"

"So you don't know how to date women?" The Frenchwoman couldn't help but laugh.

Qin Chuan found that she smiled beautifully, with a hint of curvature at the corner of her mouth, coupled with the cigarette in her hand, she had a noble and wild temperament.

At this time, several figures came out of the lights of the ballroom, and the Frenchwoman hurriedly threw her cigarette into the ground and said, "I'm sorry, I'm leaving......"

"Is there anything I can do for you, ma'am?" Qin Chuan asked.

The French woman looked at Qin Chuan, unconsciously took Qin Chuan's hand when she passed by Qin Chuan's side, and shook her head gently with regret: "I really want you to help me with something, but you can't, lieutenant!" ”

It was clear that she could identify the rank from the uniform, which may have been taught to her by her father.

The French woman straightened her hat, wiped her eyes quickly, tried to make herself happy, and then walked to the dance hall, leaving only a few wisps of special perfume smell beside Qin Chuan.

Qin Chuan turned his head and planned to continue to enjoy his quiet along the path, but suddenly, he found that he could no longer calm down.

At this time, Qin Chuan saw a handkerchief on the chair on the side of the path, and there was also a faint smell of perfume near the handkerchief.

"Lieutenant!" At this time, Qin Chuan heard Colonel Slane's shout.

"I'm here!" Qin Chuan replied, and after walking a few steps, he hurriedly turned around and picked up the handkerchief.

"Where have you been?" Colonel Slain asked, "General Oxter is here!" ”

"Oh!" Qin Chuan replied: "I'll just take a walk!" ”

Under the lights of the dance hall, Qin Chuan didn't have much effort to recognize the French woman. She was dancing on the dance floor, with a very sunny smile on her face, and from time to time she was talking to her colonel's dance partner, if it weren't for knowing that she was secretly crying in the park just now, Qin Chuan would have believed that her smile was real.

The French woman obviously saw Qin Chuan as well, and the smile on her face became a little unnatural.

At the end of the song, when the French woman passed by Qin Chuan, Qin Chuan took out a handkerchief and said, "Madam, this is your handkerchief!" ”

"Oh yes!" The French woman's eyes were a little flustered, she took the handkerchief and whispered, "Thank you!" ”

"You don't have to push yourself!" Qin Chuan said, "Can I ask you to dance?" ”

The French woman couldn't help but be stunned, and then secretly gave Qin Chuan a look, as if to say, "Are you crazy?" Don't see the colonel next to you? ”

"What did you say, Lieutenant?" The colonel looked at Qin Chuan with an incredulous expression.

"Don't you see that?" Qin Chuan didn't answer and asked: "She doesn't like you!" ”

The German colonel couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, then laughed, and when he suppressed his smile, he said to Qin Chuan in a threatening tone: "Get out of here, or I'll have someone throw you out!" ”

"Oh, really?" Qin Chuan looked at the colonel without giving up and asked, "Are you sure?" ”

At this moment, several crisp cups sounded, and Major General Oxter stood on the stage and shouted: "Ladies and gentlemen, let us welcome Colonel Slein and Lieutenant Frick from the First Steps!" ”

Colonel Slane brought a glass of wine to Qin Chuan, and the two raised their glasses to the audience.

Major General Oxter said: "Colonel Slein led the First Advance Corps from heaven to the Empire to capture Algiers, let us be applauded for his victory and the bravery of the First Battalion...... Cheers! ”

The officers cheered loudly and raised their glasses to Colonel Slain.

"Lieutenant Flick!" Major General Oxter paused intentionally at this point, and then continued: "You may be better known by his other name...... 'Legendary Sergeant'!" ”

With a "coax", the eyes of the audience turned to Qin Chuan, including the French woman and the colonel.

"Yes!" Rear Admiral Ochster continued: "He is the 'legendary sergeant' who has repeatedly defeated the British, he is the anti-aircraft gun that terrifies the enemy's armored divisions, and he is the one who captured the entire Toulon fleet...... Lieutenant Flick! Let us pay tribute to his achievements and legend! ”

With a "bang", the dance hall suddenly burst into earth-shattering applause, and from time to time an officer stepped forward to shake hands with Qin Chuan:

"Remarkable achievement, Lieutenant!"

"You're my idol, Lieutenant!"

……

Qin Chuan raised his wine glass towards the colonel and said, "Colonel, where did we talk about just now?" ”

The colonel couldn't help but be embarrassed for a while, and after thinking about it, he replied: "I'm sorry, lieutenant, I didn't know it was you!" ”

As he spoke, he glanced at the French woman and walked away stupidly.

Qin Chuan shrugged his shoulders at the French woman and said, "I'm sorry, I scared your dance partner away!" ”

The Frenchwoman laughed: "So, you are the 'legendary sergeant'?" ”

"That's what they call me!"

"You captured an entire fleet?"

"No!" Qin Chuan replied: "I haven't even been to the port of Toulon!" ”

"Whatever!" Saying that, the French woman invited Qin Chuan and walked to the dance floor......

"What do you do?" Qin Chuan asked.

"Dancing, of course!" The Frenchwoman replied.

"But I can't dance!"

The French woman looked at Qin Chuan with wide eyes: "But you invited me just now!" ”

"That's just ......" Qin Chuan looked at the colonel on the other side and said, "I just want to get you out!" ”
