Volume 2 Chapter 20 (2/2)

The British finally understood what the guards wanted theazine, the men scrambled backwards

Xu Jun has long since been watching this little stir from the corner of the camp

Xu Jun walked up behind the guard

“What is going on here!” He said with an authoritative voice, pretending that he did not see anything that happened

“What! General!”

Turning around to see the coeneral! These prisoners were disobedient, they wanted to pull down the barbed wire I warned them, but they refused to stop So, I let out several shots”

“You’ve done well I will go talk to them”

Xu Jun approached the barbed wire, shouting to officers, “What are you trying to do? I should make clear your identity, you are now prisoners of war! This is France, you’re in a prison cauard’s orders If not, then any troublemakers will be severely punished! Do you understand?”

Xu Jun was speaking in German, he didn’t yet want the British to know that he also understood English Then a British officer came out of the crowd He cal a nervous gaze towards the guard nearby Seeing his face grow displeased, the officer quickly stopped

The officer looked about 50 years old His roomed, his left sleeve on the unifor the Gerant Then he spoke to Xu Jun in fluent German

“Sir, I am here to protest your treative us the treatment of as deserved by our ranks”

Xu Jun casually returned the cereaze “State your name and position!”

The officer did not expect Xu Jun would treat him with such an attitude

“British Expeditionary Force, 13th Brigade, Major Gordon Hawke No 3487593” Gordon answered

“Oh, so what exactly, Major Gordon, are you asking for?”

“I ask you to give us the treateneral before hierous and mysterious air

“Of an officer?”

Xu Jun got agitated listening to his words

“You still the nerve to call yourself an officer! You are not an officer! You are siroup of slaves You are not even ots in the sewer”

“General, we are your captives but you cannot insult us further!” Major Gordon loudly protested

“Insult you, hmph Do your actions today even show that you can feel sha, in the disorder of the foranize the? What did your officers do when your tanks and infantry got juether? Is it not the officer’s jobs to coordinate the attack? What did you do ere raining shells and your troops needed to disperse? What do you officers do e started the bo! You have abandoned your soldiers and shaement was most needed, you only abandoned thee to resist, you were already rushi+ng to escape the battlefield You only kno to blindly drive the soldiers to their deaths The soldiers trust you as officers, so they obey all your commands But are your actions truly worthy of such trust!”

Xu Jun’s loud rebuke attracted a large group of Ger behind Xu Jun

Xu Jun’s words pierced into Gordon’s chest, but he would not allow himself to suffer such shareat But we did not run away After all, ere captured, right? Please do not huain with such harsh words”

“Did not run away! I’ve never heard such shameless words in self-defense Fortunately, you did not run away, or there would be no telling how many more soldiers would be thrown to hell! You, who’s hands are covered in the blood of your own soldiers You dare call yourself officers, but even have the audacity to request the treatment of officers! Let me tell you! No! You will be treated like your soldiers You should be glad that you can get the same food and care as soldiers! I had intended to kill all of you trash But by the honor of the Wehrmacht, I persuaded myself to show iven preferential treatment! Those standards towards captured should be used by warriors, not the cowardly!”

Xu Jun finished with his sea of scolding's turned to his own officers

“You have all seen it! You have all heard it! My army is not allowed under any circumstances to have such cowards My army is not allowed to have such reckless, idiotic officers! In my army, there will be no retreat of officers without the retreat of the soldiers! Even in defeat, I shall be with my men If there be retreat, I hope you and I will be the last ones of the field of battle! Should any forget these commandments, they shall pay dearly Understood/”

“Yes, General! The officers roared with excitement

“Long live General Reinhardt!”

The Gere of the field started to shout Some soldiers were excited to tears

Xu Jun nodded slightly at the soldiers, then took the officers back to the command center

“General Reinhardt? Your commander is not General Rommel? ”

Gordon inquired to the nearest Geruard first stared at Gordon, and then answered with pride and reverence

“He is our new commander, Third Reich Deputy Fuhrer, Reinhardt von Straud”

“Deputy… Fuhrer!” Gordon was left cohtened
