Due to lack of supplies, the German army received a very rare two-day rest time in Agdabiya.

Qin Chuan took this time to get familiar with his new position...the squad leader.

The squad leader had ten soldiers, which Qin Chuan was most unaccustomed to, because Qin Chuan did not like to command people. On the other hand, Qin Chuan was worried that he could not control his subordinates, but the facts proved that these worries were redundant.

Qin Chuan was very lucky that some of the ten soldiers under him knew him... Werner and his men were unable to continue fighting because the original company suffered heavy losses in the attack on the British defense line. At the same time, Qin Chuan's squad three also suffered more than half of the loss in the battle, so they were transferred to Qin Chuan's command.

"So, you are our squad leader!" Werner said: "God, this is really unconvincing. I worked in the army for half a year before I was just a private. You were still a private yesterday, and now you are a sergeant!"

"If you don't accept it..." said the baker: "You can also fight like Flick, for example, give a suggestion to let us break through the enemy's defense line that we can't capture for a long time!"

"Forget it!" Werner replied with a smile: "That's not what I'm good at! If possible, I would rather we have a baseball game so that I can beat my squad leader on the field..."

As he said that, Werner took the MP40 submachine gun and made a batting posture, and he also made a "pop" sound in his mouth...

"Sergeant!" At this time, a soldier gave Qin Chuan a MP40 submachine gun and five magazines, as well as a pair of sergeant collar seals with yellow edges, and then explained: "There should have been two new military uniforms, but the military officer said that the military uniforms were seriously insufficient, so..."

"No, it doesn't matter!" Qin Chuan expressed his understanding that marching and fighting in the desert is difficult to supply on the one hand, and the military uniform is easily damaged, so it is normal for insufficient military uniforms to be insufficient.

Military ranks are very simple, you just need to stick them to the collar, but the MP40 submachine gun... Qin Chuan was stunned for a while when he held it, not knowing how to deal with it.

"You can distribute it to your subordinates!" Werneryang gave the MP40 submachine gun in his hand: "My former squad leader did the same!"

Generally speaking, the German squad leader was equipped with MP40, then a machine gunner and a deputy shooter, and the other seven people were all using K98K rifles. There was also an ammunition hand among these seven people. He needed to carry two ammunition boxes and was responsible for transporting ammunition during wartime... Qin Chuan was the miserable ammunition hand before.

Of course, this is not a rigid regulation. For example, if the squad leader is not good at it and is unwilling to use a submachine gun, he can distribute it to his subordinates... Most German soldiers prefer to use MP40 because it is very beneficial in close combat and assault operations.

"Okay!" Qin Chuan lifted the MP40: "Who wants to use it?"

In an instant, a few soldiers surrounded him and said:

"Sergeant, give it to me!"

“I can use it very well!”

...

There are only three types of people who have no competition: one is who already owns MP40, such as Werner; the other is who does not need to use it, such as machine gunners and deputy shooters; the other is who know that they cannot compete for it, such as ammunition players... ammunition players are often a soldier with poor quality in the class. It is precisely because of this that he is arranged to carry more ammunition and be responsible for transportation rather than fighting during combat.

Qin Chuan looked at the ammunition hand standing aside. It was a thin and shy soldier. He glanced at the MP40 in Qin Chuan's hand and found that Qin Chuan was staring at him and quickly lowered his head to avoid Qin Chuan's gaze.

Perhaps because Qin Chuan was also an ammunition player before, he asked: "Soldier, your name!"

"Uh...sir!" the ammunition hand replied: "I, I...my name is Keller, sir!"

Qin Chuan understood a little why he was an ammunition player and stuttered, so his nickname was stuttering.

This is a big flaw, because the battlefield does not allow him to say a word for a long time... When he makes it clear, maybe the whole team is dead at the hands of the enemy.

But the ammunition hand almost doesn't need to speak. He just needs to understand other people's shouts and be able to judge where ammunition is needed.

Looking at the eager eyes of his subordinates, Qin Chuan said: "Considering that Werner already has a submachine gun, which means that our squad no longer has any problems with firepower, and the ammunition hand needs to carry more ammunition and run back and forth on the battlefield, the rifle will make him unable to move, so I think the ammunition hand is most suitable for having this submachine gun. You have no objection!"

Qin Chuan's decision surprised his subordinates, but it is unquestionable that what Qin Chuan said makes sense... More importantly, German soldiers are accustomed to obeying their superiors, so they answered one after another:

"No, no objection!"

"I agree!"

...

"Very good!" Qin Chuan threw the MP40 to Keller and said, "It's yours!"

Keller was so excited that he was so stuttering that he became even more serious. He kept "yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes

"Yes, sir, thank you!" Werner said, then turned to Keller and said, "I'm done for you, Keller, you can take a break!"

The German soldiers burst into laughter, and Keller stood there with a red face and embarrassment, continuing to say no, and not say no.

Qin Chuan patted Keller on the shoulder and comforted him: "It's okay, Keller, it's not the mouth that is used to fight on the battlefield, but the weapon in his hand... The MP40 will definitely speak much smoother than you, right?"

Keller nodded, then said nothing, and stood up and saluted Qin Chuan.

Facts have proved that Qin Chuan's approach is correct...

In fact, people who are inferior and discriminated against are often more likely to be motivated and develop in a positive direction.

Keller is such a person, and Qin Chuan gave Keller just right.

In response, Keller wrote in his diary: "That day, I felt that the sergeant gave me more than a submachine gun, he gave me confidence and respect. I suddenly knew what I was going to do, and that was to use this submachine gun to let the enemy understand how smoothly it 'speak'!"

So Keller practiced his marksmanship and tactics hard whenever he had time, and soon became the best submachine gunman in the army, which also allowed Qin Chuan to gain a loyal guard to him.

After resolving his relationship with his subordinates, Qin Chuan briefly learned about the squad leader and superiors at the same level as him... After all, they are all comrades who must cooperate and obey on the battlefield, and they should be familiar with them for their own sake.

The squad leader of the first squad is a baker, so it goes without saying that Qin Chuan was transferred from this squad.

The squad leader of the second squad is a sergeant named Berger. He is in his early twenties and is said to have been a soldier for three years... World War II started in 39, and now it is 41 years. Three years of soldier means that Berger has received good training and may have fought two years on the battlefield and has rich combat experience.

The squad leader of the third squad is Qin Chuan himself.

The company commander is Bazell.
