Chapter 426: Exposed
"Hey, brother!" Qin Chuan handed the American soldier a cigarette and said, "We are all soldiers, aren't we?"
"Hmm, what do you want to say?" the American soldier asked.
"We have no ability to decide how those generals command or fight the war!" Qin Chuan lit cigarettes for the American soldiers: "We are just trying to find a way to survive this damn war, aren't we?"
The American soldier nodded silently.
"Of course, I know that the decisions made by those generals are unfair to you!" Qin Chuan continued: "We all know it, but what can we soldiers do? Hey, Montgomery, you should carry your rifle to the battlefield by yourself Come and see how the soldiers fight on the battlefield. But he won't do that. They will just sit in the office and drink coffee and look at the documents, and then decide which highland and which port we are going to attack! "
"Yes!" The American soldier agreed: "Fuck the general, Eisenhower is not a good guy either!"
At this time, Eisenhower's reputation among the U.S. military was not very good. One reason was that he had no combat experience and was not recognized by the U.S. military. The other reason was that the U.S. military could not imagine that Eisenhower, as the supreme commander, would agree that Montgomery was obviously biased against the British. The battle plan... This caused many people in the US military to regard Eisenhower as a traitor.
"Yes, that's what I want to say!" Qin Chuan said: "We have enough troubles and dangers. These are all imposed on us by the generals. Now, why do we have to add troubles to ourselves? What about the danger? You know, if we return the same way, we will not only be scolded by the generals, but also may cause traffic jams, and then... many soldiers on the front line will not get enough equipment and ammunition because of this. and drugs, you may die from it!”
Qin Chuan blew out a puff of smoke, shook his head and said, "God! Do you know? We just rescued a few pilots not long ago..."
As he spoke, Qin Chuan raised his head to the "British soldier" behind him and said, "Did you see that tall staff sergeant? The one with Thomson on his back, he saved two US pilots, one fell into the lake There, the other one was hanging on the tree. If he hadn't found them and rescued them in time, they would have become food for the wild beasts instead of being sent back to the infirmary! Come on, man, we are all in trouble, don't give it anymore! Adding to the trouble!"
Before the American soldiers responded, several American soldiers spoke up from behind:
"I think he's right, Sergeant, we should let them go!"
"The British may indeed be hateful, but that has nothing to do with the soldiers. They are just following orders!"
"We are allies, and making things difficult for each other will only bring more trouble to ourselves!"
…
The American sergeant took a puff of his cigarette, then raised his head towards Qin Chuan and said, "Go over there! Tell Montgomery that he had better not come to the battlefield, otherwise I will kick his ass!"
"The same goes for Eisenhower, Sergeant!" Qin Chuan replied.
The soldiers around him couldn't help laughing.
To convince the other party, you must first find common ground, and then find a common enemy. When the other party understands that they are in the same boat, then the problem becomes less of an issue.
Of course, these American soldiers never imagined that the British troops they let pass were actually their enemies.
Once you get past the first level, subsequent levels won’t be a problem.
Among them, Italy and a platoon of captured German soldiers were indispensable, and some of these prisoners were still in disheveled military uniforms, and some were bloody and wounded... This was left behind during the conflict in Norad.
Because these injuries are not fake, the prisoners are real, and the prisoners are real British soldiers, so of course they are not fake.
Therefore, the American soldiers had no doubt about the identity of the "British Army", but many American soldiers looked at the passing British soldiers with hateful eyes, and some even spat at the team.
But Qin Chuan ignored them... Not everyone would do some ideological work, as long as they didn't find any flaws.
Soon, Qin Chuan and others arrived at the intersection mentioned before, and sure enough, thirty tanks were parked nearby.
The Americans are very smart. They have opened up an open space next to the road near the intersection... This is not difficult for them. They only need to use bulldozers to flatten the uneven places on the roadside.
Then, thirty tanks lined up in an arc on the open ground, with their guns aimed at a section of road about a hundred meters away... Because this section of the road passes between two highlands, it forms a A "pass" that can only accommodate two tanks.
When he saw this scene, Qin Chuan knew that Major General Graf was wrong.
Major General Graf thought that the "Plank IV" tanks of Göring's division could break through the American defense line, but in fact they were unable to do so at all.
Because this is no longer a question of how many tanks there are. No matter how many tanks rush into this "pass", they will face the fire blockade of thirty "Shermans" at the same time, as well as anti-tank guns, mortars, howitzers... Obviously, if Göring's division attacks rashly, this place will become a graveyard for German tanks.
Qin Chuan looked at his watch and secretly breathed a sigh of relief. There were still five minutes left before the counterattack, and they arrived just in time.
But at this moment, there was a commotion in the team.
The reason was that a group of American soldiers who had just come down from the battlefield saw several German prisoners in the team and became jealous... This happened frequently on the battlefield. They were beaten by the Germans on the battlefield and became angry, especially when dealing with the Enna Heights. One company went up and was killed in an instant, and another company went up and was killed again.
What was even more hateful was that they could never find a chance to take revenge... The German soldiers were either hiding in trenches or tunnels. The American soldiers were powerless to do anything about it. They were holding back their anger and had nowhere to vent. When they saw the German prisoners, they couldn't help it. They went up and beat them up without saying a word.
The "British soldiers" hurried up to dissuade them. One of the "British soldiers" saw the Germans being beaten, and when he got anxious, he went up and hit the American soldiers with the butt of his rifle, cursing: "Stop, you American pigs!"
If this curse was in English, it might be possible to make it up, but it was in German.
The American soldier who was knocked to the ground did not react for a long time. Another American soldier seemed to have discovered the problem. He widened his eyes and reached out to grab the gun, shouting: "Damn it, they are Germans!"
"Bang!" The gunshot sounded, and the American soldier was knocked to the ground.
So, the matter could no longer be concealed.
