Chapter 30 Fire Brigade (Modify)
The French army preparing for the Battle of the Somme would certainly not launch an attack in the direction of Verdun, but why did they send mobile troops in the direction of Verdun to the front line so early?
What Tang Yunyang could never have imagined was that the fundamental reason for "mobilizing" this force was for his safety. Such a "high-level" rescue was certainly not something that could be dispatched so easily.
The request to "mobilize" this army came from a woman, and such a level of "rescue" came entirely from the power of love.
"He'll be fine!"
When night came, Jane Merlin, like Nancy Greene who was far away in Nancy, was not sleepy at all. At this time, the large-scale air battle had ended, and there was no more work in the battlefield hospital.
The seriously injured pilots have been sent to rear hospitals, and the lightly wounded in the field hospitals have fallen into a deep sleep due to the pain of their injuries.
Jane Merlin stretched out her hand and pulled off her first-year-old hat, and her beautiful and supple hair fell down like a waterfall of gold and spread over her shoulders. This seemed to have formed a habit, letting her long golden hair spread out every night.
Because Tang Yunyang said that he likes such "golden waterfalls".
Because of her responsibilities, Jane Merlin spent almost the whole day busy. It was not until everything was settled that she returned to her "own time". And only in her "own time"
, then she could think carefully about what happened in front of her.
I secretly came out of the tent and listened to the continuous sound of artillery fire from the front line almost all night long. My heart tightened with worry. My body seemed to be unable to bear the cold of winter and was shivering.
"What do I have to do? I must do something... God, please bless him!"
Of course, most senior officers knew what it was like when artillery fired from the front line. It was just some parachuting pilots and rescue teams trapped in an old abandoned position in the direction of Verdun.
This did not worry them. After all, France, which had mobilized its entire country to participate in the war, including the continuous arrival of the British Expeditionary Force, far exceeded the German army opposite them.
At the same time, as the main supplier of new weapons to the French army, Mike Prince Company, due to the expansion of the company's scale and the increase in production lines, products are continuously flowing out.
More importantly, the pockets of many senior officers in the French army were greatly enriched as a result.
Like Colonel Emile Drian, they all hoped that the war would best continue, and that it would be best to continue on German soil.
As the commander of the French army's first fully mechanized new division, Emile's hunter regiment is entirely a descendant of the city of Nancy. They are completely equipped with tanks and new tactics. They are the iron in his hands.
hammer.
Colonel Emile Drian and his men were also nicknamed the "Fire Brigade" of Verdun.
In the upcoming Battle of Verdun, they will appear in every dangerous area like firefighters. Because of this, their priority for supplies, equipment, etc. is ranked first among almost all troops.
For Mr. Colonel personally, Verdun will be the key to his ascension to the throne of general.
After giving instructions to his adjutant, Emil De Leon returned to his field command vehicle. Not only was the vehicle equipped with bedrooms and sofas, it was also decorated luxuriously and comfortably.
Colonel Emile Derian, with the help of the orderly, took off his boots with great difficulty and put on the casual shoes he wore in the car.
"Mr. Colonel, your bath water is ready!"
As he walked towards the small bathroom in the car, he thought vaguely in his mind.
"They! They are really good at performing guys!"
Of course he was talking about the guys from Mike Prince Company. In order to promote this relatively luxurious and inexpensive commander's field command vehicle, they even gave one to all division commanders in the direction of Verdun.
vehicle.
The reason is not only simple, but also full of doctrine and more humane.
"A commander's rest is undoubtedly something worth noting. A commander who can rest well and command operations with a clear mind and flexible judgment will undoubtedly be of great help to this war to defend justice and freedom.
Yes, this is a gift from our company to the people of France!"
Colonel Emil really liked this kind of enjoyment while bathing in hot water. The cold and dampness of the outdoor station had long made people feel uncomfortable.
Returning to the hot water bath in the command vehicle every night not only relaxes people, but also keeps them energetic. It is a good facility.
"Presumably, at the request of a considerable number of commanders, the military department will purchase such things from the company on a large scale in the future!"
However, before he could feel lucky that all commanders could enjoy this kind of battlefield life, there was a knock on the door from his own orderly.
"Mr. Colonel, I have a call for you. She said she is Mrs. Tang!"
"Mrs. Tang?!"

When he came to the command post neatly dressed again, the call there had been waiting for a long time.
"Colonel...Colonel...is that you? I am Jane..."
"Jane! Oh, then what do you want to see me for?"
Hearing the suppressed sobs coming from Jane Merlin through the receiver, Colonel Emile Delion simply couldn't believe that Tang Yunyang would be shot down, and there was no news about him until now.
If others don't understand the value of this Chinese businessman with unknown origins, but who has used his huge arms industry to build a network, then he understands it very well.
For him, it is nothing more than a matter of career and money. I believe that for Xiafei, who is now supported by more senior military officers, this matter is definitely not a simple matter.
"Jane, it's okay. I think I understand this matter. Believe me, he will be fine. We will do our best to promote this matter..."
After putting down the phone, Colonel Emile Derian immediately answered General Joffre's call.
As a result, the rescue team who was besieged on the front line had an attack that was enough for the Germans to realize the seriousness of the situation. Although the scale was not large, it was enough to cause misunderstanding on the German side!
After getting on the armored vehicle with other pilots, Tang Yunyang was filled with emotion as he watched the French infantry continue to advance into the position.
He never thought that if he went to the Western Front to participate in an air battle, he would also be "fallen" into the whirlpool of a land battle. But now he can breathe a sigh of relief, after all, they will soon be out of the most dangerous area.
Due to the greed of the German and French search and rescue teams, the search and rescue operation for the pilots turned into a small firefight. Later, due to the continuous arrival of reinforcements, a real battle finally took place here.
