Chapter 790: Transformation
When Qin Chuan woke up, he found himself lying on the bed, and the muscles in his whole body were relaxed, because he knew ...... If the guerrillas had won that battle, he would not have been treated so well.
A soldier guarding the side noticed Qin Chuan's movement, and then excitedly shouted outward, "Colonel, general...... The lieutenant colonel is awake! β
Qin Chuan tried to get up, but the sharp pain in his left shoulder made him have to lie back down.
A colonel wearing a military cap but a white coat rushed from outside the door, and persuaded Qin Chuan: "You still lie down in the end, lieutenant colonel!" You're lucky that the wound is only a few millimeters away from the artery, otherwise no one can save you! β
"Where am I?" Qin Chuan looked out the room and the window.
"This is our field hospital!" The colonel touched Qin Chuan's forehead and replied, "You have been in a coma for two days, and you have a fever caused by an infection in the wound...... You know, the partisans usually don't pay attention to hygiene, and the bayonet is certainly no exception! β
"Oh, then how did I get back to life?" Qin Chuan was a little surprised.
Because Qin Chuan knew that if people in this era were infected with wounds, they usually only had a hard wound, and the chance of survival was very small.
"We gave you two shots of penicillin!" The colonel replied, "Maybe you don't know what it is...... To put it simply, it is a special medicine to deal with infection! β
Qin Chuan couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this.
Of course he knew what penicillin was, and its other name was "penicillin".
The problem is that it was so precious during World War II that it wasn't mass-produced in the United States until 1944, and even then it was worth more than gold.
Germany is even worse...... Because of the Allied blockade, they can't buy it even if they have money. It is said that when Hitler was stabbed, that is, after the bomb exploded, he was revived by a few precious penicillins purchased by neutral countries.
Looking at Qin Chuan's shocked eyes, the military doctor was also a little surprised: "You seem to know about penicillin?" β
"Oh yes!" Qin Chuan was stunned for a moment, and then replied: "I fought with the Americans, and I heard them discuss this thing, I always thought that the Americans were bragging!" β
"Of course it's true!" The military doctor replied: "But ordinary people don't have the opportunity to use it, General Lu Manlin has saved six, two are used on you, and we may need to use the third......"
"Oh!" Qin Chuan then remembered General Lu Manlin and his party, so he asked, "Are they okay?" β
"Good!" The military doctor replied: "They survived fifteen people, including General Lu Manlin." General Lu Manlin just let the shrapnel scratch the skin, and he is not yet to the point of using penicillin! β
"Colonel Mark!" At this time, Colonel Paul appeared in front of Qin Chuan: "Is the lieutenant colonel okay?" β
"Yes, that's good!" The military doctor replied: "I believe that as long as he rests for a few days, he will be able to get up, but if he wants to go to the battlefield, he will have to recuperate for at least a month or two!" β
After the medic left, Paul smiled bitterly and whispered, "Lieutenant Colonel, I should have told you about the plan in advance!" β
"So ......"
Paul nodded, confirming Qin Chuan's conjecture.
Qin Chuan sighed and said, "I ruined my plan with my own hands!" β
"No, it's not your fault!" Colonel Paul replied: "You just did what you had to do, it was just an accident!" β
At this time, there was a rush of footsteps outside the door, and Paul and Qin Chuan hurriedly diverted the topic.
This time it was Lieutenant General Lu Manlin, who had a bandage on his forehead, which seemed to be what the military doctor called a wound grazed by shrapnel.
"That's the best news of the day!" Lieutenant General Lu Manlin smiled and said, "Lieutenant Colonel, it's good to see that you are safe and sound. Don't worry about your hands, Colonel Mark says you'll be back on the battlefield soon! β
"Thank you, General!" Qin Chuan said: "And penicillin!" β
Lieutenant General Lu Manlin shook his head indifferently and replied: "You saved our lives, Lieutenant Colonel, everyone's lives!" It's me who should say thank you! β
Qin Chuan could only smile bitterly in his heart, this was not what he hoped for. Moreover, in the future, Lieutenant General Lu Manlin will be more careful, and it is almost impossible to use the guerrillas to make a move.
"Didn't anyone tell you about the battle that followed?" Lieutenant Colonel Lu Manlin asked.
"No, no!" Qin Chuan replied: "But I guess, you must have carried me back!" β
Lieutenant Colonel Lu Manlin laughed, paused and continued, "You're right, Lieutenant Colonel. Our way of life is frontal, because their commander is in frontal command, a second lieutenant in 'Fighting France', and they are also numbered more than a hundred instead of dozens......"
Qin Chuan listened absentmindedly, he didn't care about these at all, he was thinking about what to do with the Maginot Line in his head.
"There is one more thing...... "Lieutenant General Lu Manlin said, "I intend to fully assist you in renovating the Maginot Line, which is the Maginot Plan!" β
"Uh-huh!" Qin Chuan responded casually, and when he reacted, he looked at Lieutenant General Lu Manlin in astonishment: "What? General, I heard you right! β
"Of course not!" Lieutenant General Lu Manlin replied.
"But why ......?"
"It's a plan agreed to by the FΓΌhrer, isn't it?" Lieutenant General Lu Manlin spread his hands: "So this is what I should do!" β
Qin Chuan looked at Lieutenant General Lu Manlin, and then at Colonel Paul.
Colonel Paul also seemed to be shocked by this sudden change, and it took a while to react and say, "General, this is wonderful! So we ...... Since when? β
"Anytime!" Lieutenant General Lu Manlin replied: "Time waits for no one, we have to prepare as soon as possible, right?" β
"Yes, of course!"
Qin Chuan couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, it seemed that the matter was solved in another way.
At first, Qin Chuan and even Paul thought that there would be such a change in Lu Manlin because Qin Chuan saved his life, but later he learned that it was not entirely the case......
In fact, Lieutenant General Lu Manlin has never changed, everything he does is because of his cowardly character.
But cowardice can manifest itself in two ways:
Previously, he had a negative attitude towards the war, believing that Germany would not be able to win the war anyway, so he enjoyed it with the idea of drinking and getting drunk tomorrow, including his intention to build another villa in Berlin because of this. In this state of mind, the Maginot plan certainly didn't matter to him.
But after the battle in the hunting ground, he suddenly found that defeating the enemy was not as difficult and unattainable as he imagined, especially under the correct command of Qin Chuan, they won the victory very easily, and it was still a battle with less to win.
This made Lieutenant General Lu Manlin realize that the Maginot plan highly advocated by Qin Chuan and others was probably right, that is, this line of defense would block the enemy's defense and hold Germany, of course, including his own life.
So, what could be more important than that?
Villas in Berlin? Forget it, if the line can't be held, it will soon be in ruins!
