Chapter 32: The Eagle Descends on Paris (Part II)

"What a touching spectacle, here, on the elegant and gorgeous Champs-Élysées in Paris, the Germans show their noble self-sacrifice in front of the world.

This really surprised me, and it was completely different from the impression we have received from newspapers and books, and one cannot but be sincerely admired for the bravery and nobility shown by the Germans at the time of this accident.

To be honest, it's really hard for me to associate a person with such noble qualities with a vile and brutal invader.

At the same time, we Parisians also showed the excellent qualities of the French nation, they rushed forward to rescue the German crew in the crashed plane, that touching scene still lingers in my mind, let me admire from the bottom of my heart, this is the great and kind French nation.

As far as I know, there has never been such a scene in the history of world wars, and what a great and noble act it is for the inhabitants of the occupied territories to risk their lives to save the lives of enemy officers and soldiers! This is the pride of France, the dazzling glitter of humanity! This is a moment that deserves to go down in history, a moment to remember!

This event represented the beginning of the friendship between Germany and France, and the people in the audience kept chanting "Long live Paris!" Long live France! Long live Germany! Until the moment when the neat German ** team appeared on the side of the Arc de Triomphe......" -- "Paris Zilu Tribune"

Parisians flocked to the city, and in the blink of an eye, hundreds of Parisians surrounded the little plane that was crooked in the middle of the street.

Truth be told, many of these Parisians really want to save people, but most of the others are in the mood of watching the excitement, after all, Parisians have always been among the top few in terms of curiosity among the residents of large European cities.

The plane's engine was still smoking, and a few discerning and bold citizens cautiously stepped forward to see the situation of the plane's occupants.

Just as they approached a few meters from the plane, the door of the plane was kicked open from the inside.

Suddenly, a shiny German standard officer's leather boot appeared in front of everyone.

For a while, the encirclement of the plane suddenly expanded outward by five or six meters, and everyone involuntarily retreated backwards, including those bold inspectors and citizens.

"It's good to cover it...... French. ”

With an unusually strange French pronunciation, the owner of the leather boots once again proved his identity to the people present, and the encirclement silently expanded outward a few meters, and the Frenchman in the back row stood on tiptoe and stretched his neck.

"Hood...... Good morning, French ......"

A German officer jumped out of the plane, a collar medal embroidered with gold thread on a red background, a golden cockade and a hat cord, a golden chest scarf, a shiny medallion and a gold epaulette that also shimmered in the sun.

"This is a general...... German generals! ”

There was a muffled chatter from the crowd.

"Morning ......"

The general scratched his head in frustration as he looked at the stunned crowd of onlookers, and then shouted loudly in the direction of the plane, this time in fluent and hearty German.

"Sluton, Lowe, what are you two fools still grinding around, what should I say next! Slutton, Captain Sluton! ”

"Wait a minute, Your Excellency, we still have some trouble here, Second Lieutenant Lowe's safety belt is stuck, now it's all right...... Here we are, Your Excellency. ”

As soon as the words ended, two German pilots hurriedly climbed out of the inclined cabin, jumped out of the plane, and ran quickly to the German general, holding their military caps in their hands.

"Your Excellency, General."

"Talk to each other, I'm running out of French vocabulary." The German general said depressedly.

"Yes, Your Excellency."

A captain pilot put on his officer's hat, and then strode towards a few French inspectors who were standing outside the crowd staring nervously at him, and the crowd quietly stepped back a few meters to leave a few inspectors outside.

"You ...... French...... Waiter...... Foreman...... Where, we, the Germans...... Attend...... Ball...... Find a good location...... You're so beautiful...... Is that...... Our...... Checkmate...... I like you very much, beauty...... Do you understand? ”

The pilot spoke earnestly in a strange French accent with a thick Calais accent.

"Is this German crazy? Do you understand what he's trying to do? ”

The leading Frenchman gasped, took a few steps back like a frightened rabbit, and then tilted his head and asked his subordinates hesitantly, and a group of inspectors who were also frightened by some words in the German words shook their heads vigorously.

"I'll try, Finegrow."

A young elite stepped forward cautiously and said.

"By the way, you know German, very good, go and ask them what help they need, I see that German general is getting impatient, pay attention, be careful."

The chief said happily, and then he turned around and shouted loudly to the subordinates around him: "Don't be stunned, you guys, quickly push that pile of scrap metal to the roadside lawn, you can't block it here, the Germans' brigade is coming."

Although it is their own plane, we are also responsible if we want to hold it accountable. Fast! Don't stand stupid, you guys, get someone to help.

Vilstein, by the way, find a few people to clean up this place, don't be stunned, move fast! Everyone else scattered, all went back to the sidewalk, all scattered.

Vir, go get a few more people over and keep order!"

There's nothing to see, it's just a German general, go back to the sidewalk, don't rub around, and arrest whoever disobeys. ”

Finally reacting to his senses, he pulled out his stick and waved it there, and the Inspectors began to drive the crowd back to the sidewalk.

"Mr. Officer, please speak in German, I understand."

Just as the chief and his men were jumping, the young man walked up to the German second lieutenant and asked respectfully.

"Ah, great, you know German, hehe. I'm Luftwaffe Captain Slutton, that's your Excellency our general, we're here to participate in the German invasion of the city, I didn't expect to encounter this accident......" said the Luftwaffe captain.

"Captain, I'll tell him." Hearing that there was someone who knew German, the general hurriedly walked over.

"Hello, French Inspector Corporal Léval salutes you."

Leval saluted respectfully.

"Major General of the German Army Müller."

The German general returned a military salute in a dashing manner, which made the little French inspector dizzy for a while.

"I'm sorry, it looks like we've caused you some scare, you can tell them we're not going to hurt you." Müller pointed to the French inspectors who were watching from afar.

"I think you misunderstood, they were a little surprised, but not because of you, Your Excellency, but mainly because of what this Mr. Captain said earlier, Your Excellency, General, to be honest, his French is terrible......"

The commander of the Cyprus Corps, Müller, has now been promoted to major general. Two days earlier, he had received an order from Xu Jun to come to Paris to attend the German invasion of the city and an important military meeting.

Müller, who had not seen Xu Jun for more than half a month, was very happy, and immediately left for Paris after explaining the matter at hand to Manstein, the chief of staff of the corps.

But because Cyprus was attacking too strongly, the way back was a little longer. It is no wonder that if it were not for the care of the coordinated forces, Manstein would have rushed to Spain with Cyprus through France.

Muller drove for two whole days, only to find that at the speed of the car, he could not make it to the city in any case.

So after consulting Xu Jun, Muller changed to a direct flight to Paris early that morning. In order to ensure that Müller could arrive at the scene, Xu Jun ordered Müller to land directly in Paris, and then waited for his arrival in Paris with General Bock, who was in charge of the advance liaison work.

So, in the end, things became what they are now.

"Where is your person in charge here?"

"Please wait...... Jingchang, come over here. Leval called out to the elder.

"This is our specialty, and he is responsible for this piece."

"Very well, Mr. Jingchang, please send someone to remove my plane from here first, and then restore order here as soon as possible." Mueller said solemnly.

"Of course, Your Excellency General, I have already sent someone to do this, do you still need any help?" Through Leval's translation, Jingchang quickly replied respectfully.

"Nothing else, it looks like someone has come to pick us up."

In the distance, a convoy of cars was speeding towards the area.

"What's wrong with that kid, no problem." Mueller was a little worried.

The situation was so tense that the child was less than two hundred meters away from the plane when he appeared in the pilot's field of vision.

Originally, the "White Stork" was a light liaison reconnaissance aircraft, and its light body and reliable hydraulic brakes allowed it to stop at a short distance.

However, because Muller was riding in the C2 Senior Officer Liaison model with reinforced armor and self-defense machine guns, it weighed much heavier than the original model, and had lost its ability to land at short distances.

And the pilot also made a mistake in the handling of the situation at the beginning, he hit the brakes. So when it was found that the plane could not be stopped for a short distance, it was impossible to pull the plane back up but lost enough speed. Although the plane was finally pulled up at the last minute, the plane also fell due to stalling.

As a result, they still don't know if they have let go of the child and the brave scrutiny.

"What about that kid and that elite, tell them to come over quickly."

After a while, the elite officer walked over with the child in his arms.

"You're not hurt, you're such a brave man, I want you to pay tribute, Elite." Mueller and the two pilots nodded to the officer.

"Thank you, anyone in my position would do that." Through the translation, the elite officer was a little flattered and returned the courtesy.

"I owe a debt of gratitude to you and your men, for your spirit in forcing a plane crash to prevent me and this child from being injured, and your spirit is admirable."

"Where, in your words, any German ** officer will do this when he encounters this kind of thing." Müller smiled, and then he reached out and touched the head of the child, who had clearly not recovered from the fright, and looked with horror at the man in front of him in a beautiful uniform that he had never seen before.

"Looks like he's terrified, what the hell is going on?"

"This kid followed his dad out early in the morning to see the entrance into the city, but his irresponsible idiot dad lost the kid in a blink of an eye, and he saw a guy across the street who looked like his idiot dad, so he ......," said the elite officer, indignantly.

"Isn't there such a thing, and his father hasn't been found yet?"

"Not ...... yet"

"General Mueller!" A voice rang out from the side, and Müller looked back to see a German major standing by and saluting him.

"What's the matter?" Mueller also asked.

"General Weirle asked me to pick you up and take you to the venue...... This is ......" The Major looked at a group of sprite planes pushing suspiciously.

"It's nothing, an accident, none of us were injured, I'll explain it to General Verrle in detail." Mueller turned back to the scrutiny and smiled, "I'm leaving, you're a brave man, I'll ask your boss to give you a reward." ”

After Müller finished speaking, he turned his head to the slender and calm face on the side and said: "Find the father of that child, you must teach this irresponsible guy a good lesson, it is too much, it is impossible for such a thing to happen in our Germany." Well, thank you for your cooperation, get this place back to where it was, goodbye. ”

Mueller nodded slightly, then turned sharply and walked towards the parked car, followed by the two pilots and the major.

"Is this what the Germans are? Doesn't it seem as scary as you think, what does the government newspaper say? ”

"I think they're just like us, they're ordinary people."

"But the uniform is really beautiful."

"I think that German general is quite human, much better than our generals with eyes on the top of their heads."

"Do you hear what they're talking about?"

Looking at the car that was leaving, the French inspectors whispered and talked about it.

"Alright, you guys, get that plane away, fifteen minutes before the ceremony begins, don't let us lose face in front of the Germans again." Jing Chang scolded loudly.

"And you, this kid will be handed over to you first, and find his damn idiot father."

"What about after you find it? Elongated. ”

"Arrest him, this disgrace to France, tomorrow the whole world will know the great deeds of this idiot, and I will entertain him personally, so that he may know how to be a responsible French father."

(Sluton and Lowe, do you remember the pair?) Huh)
