Chapter 127 Supply

Without saying a word, Qin Chuan pulled out the engineer shovel from his waist and dug it into the ground. The German soldiers were all puzzled.

"Sergeant!" Werner also asked, "Do you want to move the stone tablet back?"

"No!" Qin Chuan replied.

"What are you digging?" Werner asked again.

Qin Chuan thought about it and stopped. Werner's words made him realize that he could not dig anything like this.

So Qin Chuan hurried to Bazerna and reported to Bazer who was drinking water: "Captain, I have an emergency and need to contact the colonel, okay?"

"Of course!" Bazer raised his head to the communications soldier.

If it is someone else, it will definitely not work, and it will even be a taboo... If a soldier has any situation, he should report to his platoon leader, and then the platoon leader will report to the company commander, and the company commander will report to his superiors, otherwise it will be a report beyond his level.

But Qin Chuan is special. He got the license from Colonel Slein early in the morning and could report any situation directly.

"Colin!" Qin Chuan couldn't wait to ask, "Has the people in the village been transferred?"

The infantry company where Qin Chuan is located did not enter the village at all because it was behind the troops.

"Yes!" Colonel Slain replied: "Is there any problem?"

"Has the British troops stationed in the village just been transferred soon?" Qin Chuan asked without answering a question.

"Yes!" Colonel Slain replied, and then asked in a strange way: "How do you know?"

"I think I know where the British supplies are!" Qin Chuan replied.

"What?" Colonel Slain was stunned.

Soon, Colonel Slein transferred several bulldozers from the engineers and "rumbled" near the stone tablet to push the sand and soil down layer by layer.

Then Colonel Albridge and General Streck also rushed over.

"Why do you think the British buried supplies underground?" General Streck asked.

"General!" Qin Chuan replied: "This is the method used by the Sahara war a thousand years ago. It is determined by the difficulty of transporting supplies in deserts. They will bury the supplies in the sand and mark them... I think South Africans obviously told the British about this method."

As he said that, Qin Chuan raised his head to the stone tablet not far away, and continued: "This stone tablet was not here, it should be at the entrance of the village, but the British moved it here. Why did the British move it here?"

General Streck nodded and said, "So, do you think it's a British mark?"

"I think so!" Qin Chuan replied.

"But those British prisoners said nothing!" said Colonel Albridge: "I have interrogated each of them..."

"They don't know!" Qin Chuan replied: "Because they were transferred after the supply was buried!"

"Oh!" Colonel Albridge seemed to understand something.

"So, the British have become smarter!" General Streck said: "They don't want us to destroy their supply points as before, so they transfer all the people in the village, bury the supplies, and then transfer a group of soldiers who are completely unaware of the situation to garrison!"

"Yes!" Qin Chuan said: "In this way we can't know anything from their mouths, and we will even believe that there is no supply here!"

There is no doubt about this. The British put life first, so as long as they interrogate them, they will tell everything they know.

"It's a good idea!" As he said that, General Streck shouted at the engineer who was driving the bulldozer: "Hurry up, we don't have time to be so slow!"

"Yes, General!"

"Now..." General Streck said: "It depends on whether your speculation is correct!"

A group of officers and soldiers were waiting by bulldozers. The British army obviously buried these supplies very deep... This is also necessary. If it was buried too shallow, several shells would blow up or the German army would dig a trench here and "discover" these supplies by accident.

So it was obviously a stupid method for Qin Chuan to dig with engineer shovels at the beginning, so he would not get the answer even if he digs for a day.

Finally, the bulldozer's shovel hit something with a "bang".

"Stop..." General Streck ordered, and then couldn't wait to run to the place where the sound was made, where there was an abnormal protrusion, like a iron plate.

General Streck left the sand on it in a few seconds, and then a gasoline barrel appeared in front of everyone.

"God, we have found it!" General Streck turned around and looked at Qin Chuan: "You are right, we have found their supplies!"

The German officers and soldiers immediately found cheers, as if they had found a treasure.

But it is indeed a treasure, because nothing in the desert is more precious than supply, especially for an army that is in urgent need of supply. Real treasures such as gold and silver... are actually no different from sand.

General Streck was still a little worried and asked the engineer to continue digging, and he also opened the oil barrel to verify that it was indeed a bucket of gasoline, and there were still layers below, and it was impossible to estimate how many buckets were buried.

"Sergeant!" General Streck said to Qin Chuan excitedly: "Well done, I think this is enough to apply for an Iron Cross Medal for you, you saved our entire armored division!"

The general's words made the German soldiers around him look at Qin Chuan with envious eyes.

Qin Chuan could understand their gaze because he knew that the Iron Cross was a symbol of the Germanic nation and the pride of Germany. Every German soldier was proud of being able to receive the Iron Cross, which is why Hitler wore his Iron Cross almost every moment.

But Qin Chuan didn't feel anything about it, just like Rommel said when he was promoted to general, "This is a good thing"... This is just a good thing for Qin Chuan.

Qin Chuan is more concerned about how to survive this chaos, and where he and Germany will go in the future, rather than how many medals he can get.

The news that the German army found the British supply quickly reached General Ochinlek, the commander of the Eighth Army... The news actually came from "super secret". General Strek was intercepted by the British army when he announced the good news to Rommel in the telegram.

General Ochinlek was stunned, and then walked to Major General Rich, who was discussing the defense of Gabushali with his staff, and said: "General, the Germans will not go to Gabushali's defense!"

"What?" Major General Rich raised his head in shock and asked, "Why?"
