Expedition to Europe

"Major, judging from the style of the military medals, this is the 17th Infantry Division of the German Army. The three generals in the corpses, although their identities have yet to be verified, it is certain that these people are all senior generals. But now they are... uh... Qin's achievements. I don't know how to define Qin's people, but it is obvious that their combat capabilities exceed those of ordinary troops... far beyond, Qin should be praised." After cleaning the battlefield, David reported to the major, with many flattering words.

Since the corpse is hung with the gold King Winder's Champion Cross Medal, traditionally speaking, the German 17th Infantry Division is a unit from the Grand Duchy of Mecklenburg-Schwerin. Just 45 years ago, Germany had just completed its unification and established the German Empire, but the army of the German Empire still retained the imprint of the former duchy, and the 17th Infantry Division was like this.

"Of course, I will report their deeds. As for what kind of reward they should receive, it should be decided by Mr. Raymond. We don't have this right." The major looked at the three gold cross medals of King Winder's Champion Merit in his hand with regret. If this was captured by his troops, he could be promoted to lieutenant colonel or colonel with this military merit. If he was lucky, it would not be uncommon to be promoted to general.

Unfortunately, it was not.

During World War I, many French generals rose at an astonishing speed. For example, Robert Nivelle, who rose in the Battle of the Marne, was only a colonel before the war. After the Battle of the Marne, he was promoted to general. Another example is Ferdinand Fouchon. Before the war, he was only the commander of the 20th Army. One year after the war, he was promoted to commander-in-chief of the Northern Army Group. Then in May 1917, he served as Chief of Staff of the French Army. Another example is Henri Philippe Pétain. He was also a colonel before the war. He was promoted to major general the same year after the war. He served as the commander of the Second Army in the second year. In the third year, he became the "victor of Verdun" and was hailed as the "savior of France."

For soldiers, war is a ladder for rapid promotion. As long as you have the ability, courage, and a bit of luck, it is not difficult to become a "hero" that everyone pays attention to within one or two years.

Compared with Qin Zhiyuan, the major has the foundation and qualifications, but he has no ability and luck. If you look at the potential, the major can't catch up with Qin Zhiyuan.

So, for a moment, the major wanted to take Qin Zhiyuan's military merits for himself, but it was only a moment, and the major suppressed this idea. With Qin Zhiyuan's ability, even if he was thrown into Verdun, which was called a "meat grinder", Qin Zhiyuan could still stand out. At that time, how should he deal with himself?

The major thought about it for a while, then came to Qin Zhiyuan and introduced himself solemnly: "Qin, you amaze me, I am glad to meet you, my name is Bastien Bergermin Garcia, salute you."

"Nice to meet you, Mr. Bastien, your demeanor is admirable." Qin Zhiyuan stood up and wiped his hands, then shook hands with Bastien.

"I will make a detailed report on your contribution and the contributions made by your children. Please rest assured that France will not forget anyone who shed blood and sacrificed for her." Bastien's expression was sincere. For the sake of national interests, he would not erase the contributions of Qin Zhiyuan and others.

"I am very grateful, Mr. Bastien. As allies, we can provide help to the best of our ability, which makes me very happy. If possible, I hope we can still fight side by side." Qin Zhiyuan did not forget his identity. He is now just a laborer, a laborer from the Far East who signed a labor contract with the French. Before his identity is changed, Qin Zhiyuan must abide by his duties.

At least he must appear to abide by his duties.

"That day will come. You might as well go find Bruno Abel Garcia at the headquarters and say that he is Bastien's friend. He will give you some help." As a major, Bastien also has his own connections in the French army.

"Of course, I think I will go find Mr. Bruno, hoping for a happy result." Qin Zhiyuan nodded and agreed, secretly memorizing the name "Bruno" in his heart.

The first section of a French name is the first name, the last section is the surname, and the middle section may be a Christian name or a name given by an elder. In short, the longest can reach four or five sections, and the shortest has at least three sections. Bastien and Bruno have the same surname, and maybe they are relatives.

"It must be so. If you have the ability, you should show it." The major praised generously, and it seems that he highly respects Qin Zhiyuan's ability.

"Thank you for your good words!" Qin Zhiyuan was in a good mood. No matter what the future holds, the performance of the workers has been excellent so far.

Seeing the end of the battle, Qin Zhiyuan said goodbye to Bastien and David. As a laborer, Qin Zhiyuan still had his own tasks to complete. Although Bastien and David did not kill the three German generals personally, they also had some credit because they participated in it. So after a few people exchanged greetings, Qin Zhiyuan led the laborers of the combat group out of the tunnel and returned to the rear.

Of course, before leaving, Qin Zhiyuan did not forget to ask Hu Tingfeng to take all the hidden backpacks.

…

After a hard battle, many positions on the surface were damaged again, and the air was filled with the smell of blood and gunpowder, reminding people all the time that this is a battlefield and a fighting field.

Qin Zhiyuan and his team searched for the bodies of their companions as they walked. They failed to find all the eight missing companions, only six incomplete bodies were found. The remaining two were not found, not even the fragments of the body. It is estimated that they were blown into pieces by the fierce artillery fire and were nowhere to be found.

The labor team was shrouded in gloom. Several laborers were in tears and grief. They were familiar with the dead. Most of the laborers looked confused. They didn't know where to go.

"Brothers, this is the battlefield, this is Europe, and this is the reality we have to face." Qin Zhiyuan found a stone and jumped on it to encourage everyone: "We still have to survive here for five years. If everyone doesn't stick together and work together, today's events will repeat themselves, and we will continue to lose people until our entire army is destroyed."

"Master Qin, what do you say? What should we do? We all listen to you!" A laborer took the lead in responding.

"Yes, listen to Master Qin!"

"Master Qin, please give us a rule!"

"Master Qin, please tell me. As long as you can lead us through these five years, I will sell my life to you."

The laborers who had just arrived in a foreign land felt the cruelty of war on the third day. They needed a leader who could lead them through these five years.

"Okay, since the brothers trust me, Qin Zhiyuan, I, Qin Zhiyuan, swear here that if I do anything to let the brothers down, let me be struck by lightning and never be reborn." Qin Zhiyuan also fought hard. At this moment, he had to stand up.

"Good!"

"Good man!"

"Justice!"

The laborers gave thumbs up and praised. Being in a foreign land, they needed a core.

How did the saying go?

The train runs fast, all thanks to the locomotive.
