The battlefield was quickly cleared. While Captain West was discussing with everyone how to set up the defense, a military motorcycle drove quickly from the rear avenue.

"Don't shoot, they will say the flag again, it's friendly troops." West took the binoculars and saw the other party's co-pilot holding a flag and constantly signaling, and quickly recognized them as people from the military department.

The two heralds took the lead and came to West's side and saluted: "Hello sir, we are the herald of the Guards Regiment of the 51st Army Headquarters, the commander will arrive soon, please listen to the instructions." ”

"Yes!" West was slightly stunned, he didn't expect the commander of the military department to come here in person. Could it be that Colonel Connie sued himself and wanted to trouble them??

Soon, several motorcycles and a jeep appeared on the avenue not far away, followed by a truck transporting infantry.

"What do you think these people are here for?" Muller and Xia Ming leaned against the wall in the corner, also paying attention to the sudden situation.

"I'm not God, don't ask me anything." Xia Ming frowned slightly. This is not a completely occupied area now, do you want to make such a big formation?

Soon he saw a major officer out of the jeep, saluting West very seriously, and the two walked into the jeep without knowing what they were discussing.

"What?? General Kurzbach wants to see us?? West was very excited when he heard the words of the major commander in the car.

Originally, he thought that he was here to ask for guilt, but he didn't expect that the heroic performance of his company would be seen by the general.

Sure enough, it was gold that always shone, and he finally had the opportunity to reflect the real situation with the people above.

Thinking of this, he fumbled for the diary in his pocket.

A good army always has to be rewarded and punished. His company has performed many feats, but it has not been treated with the respect it deserves. They are not rewarded for their merits, and they are not guilty and will be punished. Is this still the great Imperial Army in his mind? You know, he was really disappointed and forced to kill himself.

If it weren't for Xia Ming's strength that always brought him, he might not have been able to persevere.

"What, don't you want to??" The major staff officer smiled slightly when he saw West's uncertain expression.

The young captain's soldiers were warriors, and he still respected him very much.

"No, sir, all 14 soldiers of our company are very honored to be received by the general." West saluted very seriously in the car. In the battle just now, three more comrades were lost, and even the bodies could not be found.

But it's a great turn for him and he has to make the most of it.

The major returned the salute and smiled: "Very good, hurry up and take your soldiers to the headquarters with me." I just saw that you're already stationed around, and that's good. This shows that you are not carried away by short-lived victories. I will order the company to change guards with you and carry out the order quickly. ”

"Yes!" Captain West quickly got out of the car, quickly got into the truck with the company, and drove back to the headquarters with the major...

*********

When Xia Ming heard that he was going to meet the general at the headquarters of the 51st Army, he was still quite excited.

As a small soldier, it was really not easy to finally get the opportunity to meet the general.

Quest 6 is to obtain the Knight's Iron Cross with Diamond Swords and Silver Oak Leaves.

As a creep, it's very, very difficult to get this kind of honor. All of them are heroes of the country.

If it is only about merit, in fact, his current record may already be able to obtain the highest honor at present.

More than 300 enemy troops were killed, including many officers of the rank of major and above. The lieutenant didn't even know how many of them had been killed.

But why is he still a soldier now? Why doesn't anyone know about him?

Isn't it because no one pays attention to it, no one publicizes it?

This is a very real problem, and he must become a national hero if he wants to complete Mission 6.

If you just work hard and complete the adventure goal in a low-key manner, I am afraid that it will be difficult to get this medal. Meeting the general will definitely be an opportunity.

It's still necessary to make a good impression on him, and at least to give Boss West a chance to get a commendation.

In this way, he will have more say in it, and he will not become an unsung hero himself.

He'd met Colonel Connie once, too. Forcing soldiers to shoot civilians and even set them on fire is brutal. In fact, he is a cruel executioner, and racism is only a façade.

With such a superior, everyone is having a hard time.

If it can become the establishment of the Guards Regiment of the Military Department, everything will be easy to do.

I fought under the nose of the general, and I was not afraid that my achievements would be buried. Everyone will not be so aggrieved, and the survival rate will be much higher...

Thinking of this, Xia Ming raised his eyebrows slightly.

.......

"The command has arrived, please get out of the car."

As the truck stopped, the staff officer of the major was already standing outside the car and looking at everyone with a smile.

The command post of the 51st Army was built in a nondescript bungalow on the western outskirts of Stalingrad. The underground has been temporarily converted into a simple command post. Aircraft bombing did not pose much of a threat, and it was relatively safe to be surrounded by occupied areas and heavily guarded areas.

Xia Ming quickly jumped out of the car and gathered with everyone.

Under the leadership of the major commander, I walked all the way through a barracks to the western-style building. I walked through the busy crowd and came to the innermost office with the sound of the radio in my ears.

"Please come in."

With a deep voice, Xia Ming walked into a room that was quite spacious.

In the middle of the room hung a portrait of the Führer, and various maps hung on the walls of all sides. In the middle is a large map of the Sand Table city of Stalingrad with various flags on it. The ashtray next to it was full of cigarette butts.

"Ha, you're all here, it's good, please take a seat. Valiant warriors. With a calm voice, Xia Ming saw a middle-aged general come out of another small room.

He had a delicate beard, a cigarette in his hand, and a smile on his face, but he still looked imposing.

As a very amateur military enthusiast, Xia Ming's understanding of German generals was limited to a few of the most famous. For example, Rommel, Guderian, Goering.

Naturally, he had no impression of this general.

"Hello General Kurzbach, it is a great honor to be invited by you." West and everyone naturally didn't dare to sit down, and saluted and reported as soon as possible.

"Well, you only rely on a dozen people to surround and annihilate an armored company of the enemy, and I can see it clearly. You're all the elite of the Empire, and you're very good.

What's your number? On behalf of Headquarters, I would like to commend you for such a heroic performance. General Kurzbach was satisfied with West's attitude and nodded.

"Report to the General, most of us were previously subordinate to the 77th Infantry Division's Independent Assault Battalion. Later, due to heavy losses, he was temporarily withdrawn, and after resting, he was still assigned to the 3rd Company of the 2nd Regiment of the 77th Infantry Division. West reported loudly.

The general nodded and took two steps and said thoughtfully: "I see, your independent battalion has made a great contribution at that time. You've been assigned to Connie's team, wasn't he transferred by me to support Grand Central Station?? ”

West bowed his head slightly, plucked up his courage and said, "Report to the general, it was I who disobeyed the military order and did not lead the troops to participate in the assembly. ”

"What??" General Kurzbach frowned tightly and looked at West in surprise. Originally, he planned to reward them well, but he was swallowed back raw. How dare you disobey the dispatch and disobey the military order??

Xia Ming looked at his chief speechlessly. West is good at everything, but he is too honest and honest, and he has a tendon.

In fact, everyone knows in their hearts that the chief may not have carried out the above tasks. But don't you say that if the radio station is broken, it's over? What's more, there are only fourteen of them now, and any excuse can be prevaricated. You have to admit that you disobeyed military orders.

You know, this is a big crime to be shot directly...

West looked at the general with a gloomy face, took out his marching diary casually, and said, "General, as a commander, I am willing to take all the responsibilities for disobeying orders. But I really couldn't see my own soldiers fall before my eyes one by one.

They are all elites of the empire and should not fight fatigue without cover, without assistance. From an integrated company to 14 people, it is no longer possible to carry out assault missions. We once completed 5 assault missions in one week. But it didn't get the respect it deserved.

Here are my battle notes, please take a look.

I ask that my court be court-martialed, but I just want you to keep these valiant soldiers. I think they should be incorporated into your Guards and use them to the best of their ability.

Especially Private Xia Ming, he should definitely become a hero of the country. He should be my company commander, and without him we would have been wiped out.

This is my plea, and I ask you to consider it. ”

"Bastard! What qualifications do you have to ask for a general? The staff officer on the side really couldn't listen to it anymore and said loudly.

"Is the Xia Ming you are talking about him??" General Kurzbach waved at the staff officer, pointed to Xia Ming on the very edge, and asked.

"Yes, General. He was the best soldier I had ever met, and his command skills were above mine. If you don't use him, you really can't bury such a talent. "West actually thought very clearly on the road, even if his life is gone, he must ensure that Xia Ming continues to lead his company.

On the one hand, he did feel exhausted, and on the other hand, he had to bear the responsibility for disobeying military orders. Xia Ming is undoubtedly the best candidate to succeed him.

"I..."Xia Ming kept glancing at West depressedly. This guy can, it turns out that he thinks more than him, and he was really caught off guard.

"Hmph... Well, I'll shoot you and you soon. But let me see what you wrote. General Kurzbach snorted softly as he looked at the wonderful facial expressions of these soldiers.

I'm afraid they're all holding back what they want to say now.

Let them think slowly, and talk happily for a while.

Disobeying military orders, you must not be able to spare them so easily. But if you really want to shoot them, you really can't bear it.

He had to see what these people were doing.

A person sat on the sofa and looked carefully...
