Seventy-one. captive

By the time the sun rose, the battle for the D9 position was over.

Once again, victory was firmly in the hands of the supplementary battalion under the leadership of Captain Ernst Braem.

Where there is Ernst, there is victory, and this has become the consensus of all the soldiers of the supplementary battalion.

About two hundred captives were captured, and they were being counted there.

Guderian walked over: "Captain, you have to come and have a look." ”

As Guderian came to another part of the position, Wang Weiyi was surprised to see more than a dozen seriously wounded people dying. And among them, there was even a lieutenant colonel who had one of his arms blown off.

"Lieutenant Colonel Rosen, commander of the 43rd Battalion of the 42nd British East Reims Division. Are you the supreme military commander? "Seeing a German captain coming, Lieutenant Colonel Rosen stood up, albeit badly wounded.

"Hello, Colonel!" Wang Weiyi saluted: "I am the supreme military commander here, Captain Ernst Bream, commander of the supplementary battalion of the 16th Bavarian Infantry Regiment. ”

Ernst Bream? Lieutenant Colonel Rosen gasped: "You are the 'Creator of the Somme Miracle' Captain Ernst Bream?" ”

Wang Weiyi smiled and said, "As far as we know, you call me 'the devil of the Somme'"

Lieutenant Principal Rosen exhaled, and there were not many regrets about being defeated at the hands of the "Somme Demon".

Wang Weiyi looked at Lieutenant Colonel Rosen's injury: "Lieutenant Colonel, your injuries are very serious and need to be treated immediately. ”

As he spoke, he ordered the military doctor and the priest to be called.

Sergeant Sproh and Reverend Exxon soon arrived at the position to treat and pray for the seriously wounded.

Lieutenant Colonel Rosen, who had already become a prisoner, was not discouraged, the battle was over, and despite the defeat, the burden on him could be lifted.

On the contrary, he had a hasty bandage and chatted with Captain Ernst about the war.

"Captain." At this time, Sergeant Sproh and Pastor Exxon came over together, and Sergeant Sproh had a solemn face: "Two have died, and the priest prays for them." There are also people who are so badly injured that we lack the necessary medical conditions, and if they don't get timely treatment, it's hard to keep them alive."

"Poor man." Pastor Exxon muttered, "They're still that young. ”

The battle is over, and now it's not about the country or the country, the pastor is thinking about the lives that are about to be lost.

"Is there any other way?" Wang Weiyi said with a frown.

Sproh shook his head in embarrassment: "Our field hospital is so far away that it is too late to send them back"

"We have a field hospital, right there in our position," said Lieutenant Colonel Rosen, suddenly, "Captain, I beg you to send them back for God's sake." They have lost their ability to fight and will no longer be enemies of Germany. ”

At this time, Second Lieutenant Hall also rushed to the position, and happened to hear Lieutenant Colonel Rosen's words, and he hurriedly pulled Wang Weiyi aside: "Captain, they are prisoners"

"They are also wounded." Wang Weiyi replied to his subordinates, and then walked back to Lieutenant Colonel Lawson: "Lieutenant Colonel, I accept your request. You can leave with the wounded, and I'll pick a group of people from the captives to help you bring the seriously wounded back. ”

"Thank you, Captain, thank you!" Lieutenant Colonel Rosen didn't expect the other party to agree so quickly, and tears of excitement even flashed in his eyes.

At this time, the German artillery fire was vented again, and it was the beginning of a new major counteroffensive of the German Second Army!

"Don't hesitate any longer, Lieutenant Colonel." Wang Weiyi no longer had any hesitation: "Our counteroffensive has begun, and I will personally escort you out of here." ”

"I'm your adjutant, I'll go with you." Guderian stood firmly.

"And me, Captain, and me," several soldiers from the 3rd Company called out. They were all willing to be by Captain Ernst's side.

Wang Weiyi smiled: "We're not going to fight, we don't need so many people, Guderian, you go with me." ”

"God will bless you, you are so brave and merciful." Pastor Exxon said excitedly.

The selected captives had arrived, and Wang Weiyi and Lieutenant Colonel Rosen commanded them to lift the seriously wounded.

The great German counteroffensive had begun, and everywhere there was the sound of artillery gunfire and the shouts of soldiers. On several occasions, Lieutenant Colonel Rosen encountered German soldiers who had raided the area, and they almost became the guns of the Germans.

Fortunately, Captain Ernst was there.

When the German soldiers heard that they were personally escorted by the "Miracle Creator of the Somme", they all had a look of reverence on their faces and consciously and voluntarily gave way to the way.

"That's where we are." Lieutenant Colonel Rosen pointed not far ahead: "Captain Ernst, I don't know how to express my gratitude to you. ”

Before the words fell, suddenly a large group of British soldiers rushed out from all sides and surrounded Wang Weiyi and them.

"Lieutenant Colonel Rosen, commander of the 43rd Battalion of the 42nd East Lance Division!" Lieutenant Colonel Rosen hurriedly said loudly: "Send these our wounded to the hospital immediately!" ”

A sergeant hurriedly commanded several soldiers to assist in sending the wounded down, and then asked strangely: "Lieutenant colonel, who are these two Germans?" ”

"They are real gentlemen!" Lieutenant Colonel Rosen said solemnly: "I have never seen a gentleman more chivalrous than that captain. ”

The sergeant was a little surprised: "Who is he?" ”

"Ernst Bram."

After Lieutenant Colonel Lawson finished speaking, he stopped paying attention to the stunned sergeant and came to Wang Weiyi: "Captain, please allow me to make another rude request, can you wait for me here for twenty minutes?" ”

"Okay, as long as you don't capture us." Wang Weiyi said with a smile.

"No, the British would never do such a despicable, so ungrateful thing." Lieutenant Colonel Rosen raised his voice abruptly, and then called the sergeant over: "Sergeant, I order you to protect Captain Ernst, and whatever he needs must be provided to him at the first opportunity." If Captain Ernst has any grievances, you will be severely punished. ”

"Yes." The sergeant glanced at Wang Weiyi with an expression of awe.

Can you believe it? He is now standing with the "demon of the Somme".

Oh my God, this is incredible, this is the real "Devil of the Somme".
