Chapter 541: Rommel

If he hadn't known that the Gestapo had been chasing and intercepting him all the way, Qin Chuan would have really been deceived by Heydrich's thirsty posture.

Of course, Qin Chuan knew that Heydrich's purpose in doing this was not to deceive Qin Chuan, Heydrich was doing it for Canaris and Hitler...... One day, if something happens to the "legendary sergeant", such as a disappearance, it will not have anything to do with Heydrich.

At this time, Qin Chuan felt physically and mentally exhausted.

This is not because Qin Chuan is afraid of Heydrich, but because he is tired of this kind of coy attitude on the surface.

Compared to this kind of life, Qin Chuan prefers to stay on the battlefield.

At this time, Qin Chuan regretted it a little, he knew that he shouldn't have made this counterfeit money plan on a whim, and even if he wanted to get it, he should wait for Heydrich to be assassinated, so that he could save himself a lot of trouble.

But then again, if you do...... At that time, I was afraid that I had already returned to the battlefield and would not be able to affect the rear, so the counterfeit banknotes would have to be delayed for at least half a year before they could be tossed out.

Half a year may not be a long time, but now that we are only three years away from the historical surrender of Germany, the counterfeiting plan that was half a year ahead could bring many changes to Germany.

Unconsciously, Qin Chuan came to the front of Rommel's room under the leadership of the staff officer.

"General Rommel is resting!" The guards stopped the staff officer.

Rommel's guards were different, even Hitler's staff officers dared to stop them.

The staff officer looked at Qin Chuan a little helplessly, and Qin Chuan said to the staff officer with understanding: "I'm waiting for the general here!" ”

"Are you ...... 'Legendary Sergeant'?" The guards quickly recognized Qin Chuan.

"Yes, my friend!" Qin Chuan couldn't help the excitement in his heart, stepped forward to shake hands with the guards warmly and hugged them tightly.

This is an indescribable feeling, especially since Qin Chuan came out of the Afrika Korps, and now seeing the Afrika Korps is like touching his own relatives.

"Is Africa okay?" Qin Chuan asked the guard, "Is General Rommel okay?" ”

"All is well, Captain!" The guard was also a little excited: "We heard that you have won another battle in Holm, and the Afrika Korps are talking about you, and we regard you as the pride of the Afrika Korps!" ”

"Many people are nostalgic for your days in Africa!" Another guard continued: "They all say that without the First Steps, without the 'legendary sergeant', Africa would be nothing but bare deserts." The general also mentions you from time to time! ”

Qin Chuan only knew that he was shaking hands with the two, and there were tears in his eyes unconsciously...... He suddenly missed Africa again, and wanted to go there to see the desert, to see the sea, to see the hundreds of thousands of comrades there who had fought together.

"Who's there?" At this time, there was an inquiry from the room.

"General!" The guard was about to answer, but was stopped by Qin Chuan.

The guard understood what Qin Chuan meant, so he replied, "Someone is coming to visit you!" ”

"Let him in!" Rommel said.

Qin Chuan pushed the door in, Rommel was buttoning his military uniform in front of the mirror, and said, "I'm sorry, I haven't rested for two days." You know, that hell place in Africa......"

"Especially now that the rainy season has just passed in Algeria, it is hot and humid everywhere, and there are more mosquitoes than sand!"

"Yes!" Rommel couldn't help but look back in surprise: "How do you know these ......?"

But soon he was stunned, and then he rushed up and laughed: "Flick, it's really you!" ”

"Yes, General!" Qin Chuan stepped forward and saluted Rommel.

"Very well, Captain!" Rommel patted Qin Chuan's shoulder: "I've seen it all, you have another medal, and it's the unique Holm Shield." You know? I wish the Afrika Korps soldiers would forget about you! ”

"Why?" Qin Chuan asked puzzled.

"Because you distracted them!" Rommel said, "They care about you more than they care about themselves...... God, these guys were talking about Holm when the British and Americans were attacking the Gabes line! ”

"It can't be!" Qin Chuan couldn't help but laugh out loud.

"It's true!" Rommel said, "I'm about to give an order to stop them from doing this!" ”

"Then why didn't you give the order?" Qin Chuan asked.

"Because I'm thinking about how you're going to hold off the Bolsheviks!" Rommel spread his hands helplessly: "This is one of my pleasures, and you did not disappoint us!" ”

Saying that, Rommel poured a glass of wine for Qin Chuan.

"Is Africa okay?" Qin Chuan asked.

"Good!" Rommel replied: "As you estimated, the tide of the war is deadlocked, or rather...... It is the British, the Americans who want to be in a stalemate! ”

Qin Chuan understood what Rommel meant, simply put, Britain and the United States were shocked by the power of V1, and at the same time, the defense line arranged by the Afrika Korps in Tunisia was indeed difficult to break through.

"Our oil is starting to be mass-produced!" "The current production is 23,000 barrels per day," Rommel said. ”

Rommel exclaimed, "Isn't that wonderful?" Originally, we had been worried about the fuel problem and had to transport it from Berlin and France, but now it ...... It was not only enough for the Afrika Korps, but also shipped to Germany in bulk. What's even better is that its production is still increasing! ”

"A good thing indeed!" Qin Chuan said: "So, I believe that the FΓΌhrer will never treat Africa as a secondary battlefield again!" ”

"Of course!" Rommel replied, "It's just ...... The FΓΌhrer had hoped that we would launch a counteroffensive! ”

Qin Chuan looked at Rommel with incredible eyes.

"Yes!" "That's what he said, because he thinks we have plenty of supplies, especially oil, while the British and Americans have to come in oil from farther away from India or even the United States, you know, the Strait of Gibraltar has been blocked by us!" ”

"But that doesn't mean they're short of supplies!"

"The FΓΌhrer wants us to fight a war of attrition with the Allies!" Rommel said: "In his imagination, our oil is inexhaustible, and the Allies are always unable to succeed for a day!" ”

"But you convinced him, didn't you?" Qin Chuan asked.

"Yes!" Rommel said, "Do you know how I persuaded him? ”

Qin Chuan shook his head.

"The answer is simple!" Rommel said: "Our focus now should be on the Eastern Front, and we should concentrate most of our forces on the Soviets first." He agreed, but I might have to leave Africa too! ”

"Leaving Africa?" Qin Chuan asked, "Why?" ”

"If there is no counteroffensive, and at the same time the defense line is in a stalemate!" Rommel spread his hands: "What can I do in Africa?" ”
