Chapter 80: The Mind After the War
"Boom-" The machine-gun position was torn apart by an explosion, and several Germans tried to scatter and run away, but were quickly killed by a random shot. The mortarmen, having lost the protection of their machine-gun positions, gave up resistance and raised their hands high - they surrendered.
"Bang bang!" White fired two shots in quick succession, killing the first man with his hand raised. A few other Germans were so anxious that they shouted loudly. White raised his gun again, ready to kill all the Germans.
"That's enough, White." Winters shouted, "Ramirez, take these Germans to the battalion headquarters." ”
"Okay!" Ramirez waved his gun and shouted, "Let's go, German, if you don't leave, no one will be able to save you!" As he spoke, he led a few captives to the rear.
Winters looked in the direction of the bell tower: "Wales, Compton and the brothers continue to sweep. With that, he beckoned to White, "Let's take a look at Parks!" As he spoke, he walked in the direction of the bell tower.
They had just walked a short distance when they saw two people walking towards them. One limped on his leg, and the other put his hand on his shoulder, and when he saw Winters and them, he laughed, "Hey, look, our Parks." ”
Before Winters could reply, he heard White exclaim in surprise: "Hey, Parkes, I thought you were killed by the Germans, but I didn't expect you to be lucky with shit." ”
"The Germans are so bad, White, they should really be taught well, it seems that they are not good students." Parks was in a good mood, the mortar positions were captured, and the Germans were driven out of Carrington was not a problem at all.
"You're hurt." Winters frowned and looked at Parks' legs.
Parks let go of the hand on Lip's shoulder and smiled, "The thigh was cut by shrapnel." I said there was no need to help me, but Lip was obviously not very reassured. As he spoke, he smiled at Lipu.
"Not a big problem, sir." Lip nodded at Winters, "I've bandaged him." ”
Winters was relieved that Parks didn't die, which was good news. He values Parks very much, and in this battle, Parks played an irreplaceable role.
"Alright, Parks, it's already over to Compton and Harry, you better go and get some rest, you're doing a good job this time!" Winters smiled, patted him on the shoulder, and then said to Lip, "Send him down to rest." It's going to be over soon. ”
Parks didn't say anything, gestured to Lipp, and walked towards the battalion headquarters.
"I think you should go to the first aid station and get dressed." Lip tried to help him again.
Parks blocked it and smiled, "I'm fine, thank you." I'll go to the first aid station anyway and have a look. This will result in a faster recovery. You go help Winters, I guess I'm okay here. ”
"Are you sure?" Lip glanced at his legs.
Parks raised his hands: "I'm sure, Lip, go ahead!" ”
Lipp looked at it, then nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go first, we'll see you in the city later, I think we still have to stay here, the Germans won't give up." ”
Parks nodded, "You're absolutely right! Well, see you in the city! ”
Lip picked up his rifle and headed in the direction of Winters again.
By this time, it was already dawn. Parks looked towards Carrington, where there were still sporadic gunfire and explosions, and it was the brothers of Company E clearing the remnants of the German army. A part of the Germans fled.
Parks smiled and walked towards the battalion headquarters first-aid post.
"Second Lieutenant, it's just a minor injury, it's nothing, shrapnel went through the thigh," the doctor re-bandaged Parks and gave him an injection, "You didn't hurt the arteries, you're lucky." ”
"You're lucky!" Parks smiled, then turned his head to look at the wounded lying not far away, and saw Sisk, who was lying motionless with layers of gauze on his body.
"What's wrong with him?" Parks asked.
"That?" The doctor followed Parks' gaze, pointed at Sisk, and then nodded, "He's very badly wounded, and we'll have a car to take a group of more seriously injured people to Utah Beach later, and they'll be sent back to England for the best treatment." Maybe you can survive, it's not necessarily, it depends on luck. ”
"Luck?" Parks couldn't help but smile bitterly, he relied on good luck, but only slightly injured, and Sisk had to rely on luck to survive, what could be more unpredictable in war than life?
Parks suddenly had an indescribable taste in his heart, looking at the brothers lying here, although some of them knew each other, and some of them didn't, but their hearts were like being fished out of the water, and the water was drenched uncomfortably.
Parks bandaged, jumped down, walked out of the door of the first aid post, and then saw someone crouching in the corner, couldn't help but take a look, and then shouted: "Bloy! ”
"I can't see it, sir! Out of sight! Bloy was motionless, his eyes looking ahead, as if he was at a loss.
Parks knew that Bloe had such an experience, and that he had lost his eyes this time because he was so scared. But he was still not sure, and then asked the doctor in the room, "What's wrong with him?" ”
"Maybe it's too nervous." The doctor shrugged his shoulders.
Parks' impression of Bloy is quite good, except for the initial timidity and nervousness, he eventually becomes a brave soldier, and although he is seriously injured in the end, he is still worthy of admiration.
"Don't be nervous, relax. You've got what it takes to get out of here. We're going to get you out of here soon. You will be back in the UK. You'll be fine. Be relaxed. Parks said as he crouched down and took his hand.
"I don't know, and I don't want to, sir!" Bloy looked frustrated, "Sir, I'm not trying to escape, I should be like the rest of my brothers." ”
"It's not your fault, Bloi!" Parks clapped his hand, "We're all going to be scared." When I'm on the battlefield, I'm filled with fear, but I'll cheer myself up. ”
"I know, I know, sir, but I can't see it now!" Bloy was in a terrible mood.
"You'll see, you're just too nervous!" Parks stood up, "Now that Company E has taken Carrington, this battle is over, don't think about it, you stay here." There will be a car that will transport the wounded to Utah Beach together, so you can go with you! Parks said and glanced at him, and prepared to go back to the city to meet his brothers.
Parks hadn't taken two steps when he suddenly heard a voice behind him.
"Sir, wait for me!" Bloy slowly stood up.
"Don't be nervous!" Parks said to him, "Don't move. ”
"I can see, I can see, sir! I can see you! Bloy looked at Parks.
Parks looked at him and smiled slightly, "Then go back to the company and be with your brothers." Parks knew he was too nervous, and all he needed was someone to talk to him and calm him down. Parks talked to him for a while, calming his emotions. Then he saw everything in front of him again.
Company E has taken full control of Carrington. By this time, F Company had already joined up with the 327th Regiment. Carrington was conquered. Lieutenant Colonel Stryll entered the city and met with the commander of the 3rd Battalion of the 327th Regiment. They came to a hotel and opened a bottle of wine to celebrate the victory.
Winters met Nickerson at his makeshift camp headquarters in City Carrington.
"Would you like a drink?" Nickerson smiled as he pulled a bottle out of the cupboard, "Emerald 69 Aged Whisky, my favorite." As he spoke, he unscrewed the cap of the bottle.
"When have you ever seen me drinking?" Winters smiled helplessly.
"The Germans won't give up." Nickerson took a sip of his wine, "Still, you're doing a good job, and Strell is happy." ”
"Yes, we captured Carrington to make Stryll happy." Winters shrugged.
"How's Parks?" Nickerson gestured at Winters with his glass.
Winters smiled, "He's lucky." Nothing! It was a hole in the thigh that was pierced by shrapnel. But this time he was able to beat Carrington, and he contributed a lot. ”
"I knew for a long time that he was a good soldier." Nickerson chuckled, "Looks like you've made the right decision." ”
"Nick, you've said this several times!" Winters smiled.
The camp of the brothers was also placed in a large warehouse, and the brothers lay and sat in twos and threes in the warehouse and outside the warehouse. After a fierce battle, some were excited and talked loudly, and some were silent and thinking about their hearts.
"Did you find Ruger?" Goneri touched Maraki with his elbow.
Malaki was very excited, he was showing off the watch he had peeled from the German, and was a little frustrated when Guneri said: "Sooner or later I will find it, you wait!" ”
"Hey, Goneri, look there!" Malachi swept his eyes over the guy who was sitting on the side looking into the distance, sitting on the ground, there was a silent guy with a piece of paper in his hand, "What's wrong with him?" ”
"Donnatt?" Goneri glanced at Maraki in surprise, "It's because of Brown." Brown's death hit him hard! ”
Malachi nodded, "Gotta help him!" ”
