"I'll say it again, I was the commander of a combat unit before, a commander! A purebred combat unit, not a cooking squad leader!"
Lao Wangtou complained with some resentment, and skillfully placed the noodles in a bowl. Every night, the hot noodle soup was served with a fried egg, and a few drops of soy sauce and sesame oil.
A few chopped green onions are dotted in the clear soup, giving off a translucent luster, and a fragrant aroma makes people move their fingers.
"Besides, I am still a wounded person and an old man. Can you be considerate?"
With these words on his lips, Wang Jianguo still distributed the noodles to everyone in the team skillfully, but the expression on his face was not very pretty.
"Food is the most important thing for the people. Uncle Wang, you are playing an extremely important role in our team now." Sun Jie smiled and picked a few shiny hot noodles into her mouth and said with a smile.
"Yes, and we are children. Uncle Wang, can't you feel sorry for the child?" Liang Sicheng followed suit, but Old Wang said "Get out of here".
"You, a wounded old man, did you achieve anything at the bar last night?" Nuo Lan looked at him with evil intentions and teased.
"Harmful!"
Wang Jianguo waved his hand, "If I have any results, will I get up early in the morning to make food for you?"
He then sighed, touched his chin gently, and said: "It seems that this blindfold really affects my heroic image. Hey, sissy, don't just eat it. What did you say last time?" Eyes, can wearing that thing make me look more handsome?"
Zhang Chi glanced at him.
Ever since the Normandy landings, Wang Jianguo had begun to call him "sissy" without any scruples. This made Zhang Chi a little unhappy, but he also felt that he should be happy.
This at least proves that Old Wangtou has no barrier to him now, and has completely regarded him as his comrade who sacrificed his life and shared his fate, but he really doesn't like this nickname.
"You don't know how to take off your blindfold and look in the mirror. You look so unlucky. If you really wear a prosthetic eye and go to a bar, I'm afraid you will be beaten out by the security guard." Zhang Chi said angrily.
Lao Wang's head was slightly injured.
Indeed, the most serious injury to his eyes was not the eyeball position. After the orbital area was completely penetrated by the bullet, a very scary wound was left at the corner of the eye. Although the tissue has begun to grow and recover, it still looks bright red. If you wear a prosthetic eye and go out for a parade, you might scare the passers-by on the street, let alone go to a dark place like a bar.
Everyone in the team is in a good mood today. First of all, the Allies seem to have made key progress in the Caen area. They seem to have won a key victory on a certain battlefield. This proves that the most brutal and bloody battle in Caen, everyone in the team There is a high probability that they were lucky enough to miss it. If there were to be another arduous mission like the Normandy landing, with a single outcome, everyone in the team would be afraid.
Lin Biao and Wang Jianguo are both professional soldiers. Naturally, they understand how painful it is for recruits who have never seen a battlefield to suffer from battlefield stress syndrome, also known as PTSD. The efforts made the team try not to be too concerned about everything on the battlefield and face it with ease.
This matter should not be brought up voluntarily. Once it is brought up, it may be counterproductive. The best way is to choose to distract everyone with other things, such as delicious food or shopping.
It is obvious that after nearly half a month, everyone's mentality is much better than when they first came back, and now they have gradually returned to the relaxed state they had when they first entered the game.
Another happy thing today is that Qi Zhen is going to be discharged from the hospital.
After Qi Zhen's surgery, in order to facilitate observation and recovery, she stayed in the hospital. With the support of his miraculous body, her serious injuries have improved a lot and she has met the requirements for discharge.
When Qi Zhen was discharged from the hospital, everyone in the team naturally welcomed him together. It was rare for a wealthy man to recover from a serious illness, so why not have a celebration dinner at the station?
He purred and cleared away the clear soup noodles in front of him, and everyone in the team stopped chatting. After cleaning up for a while, they went out and rushed to the hospital.
When they arrived, Qi Zhen had almost finished cleaning up.
In fact, there was nothing to take care of. When Qi Zhen came, she was alone, so when she left, there was nothing to take care of. Anyway, the medicines were all kept at Zhang Chi's place, and a change of clothes was just thrown into the ethnography bag. Pulled down with one throw.
Qi Zhen's obsession with money is reflected in all aspects. In the preparation hall, she couldn't bear to throw away the clothes she bought for dozens of copper coins. She was extremely frugal.
He still had a piece of shrapnel embedded in his arm. Thinking about it, such an extremely sharp thing was stuck in his arm. He still felt a phantom pain in his arm.
The arm was completely hung up by the bandage and hung directly around his neck. Qi Zhen now looked exactly like the injured person who had retired from the battlefield.
Seeing his teammates who came to greet him, Qi Zhen chuckled and put on a smile that he thought was extremely bright, but it made Lao Wangtou tease you, are you mentally damaged?
After thanking the doctors and nurses in the hospital who had taken good care of Qi Zhen, the team prepared to return.
Zhang Chi was held back by doctors who were so excited that they could almost be called fanatics. The director personally took action to keep Zhang Chi in this hospital. His medical knowledge was different from those they had never seen before. Medical equipment really opened the eyes of these doctors.
However, Zhang Chi could only reluctantly reject the other party's enthusiasm. He did not want to stay behind and wait for good news or bad news from his frontline teammates. As the only medical provider in the team, he had to stand with his teammates.
Seeing that the efforts to retain him were fruitless, the dean also knew that these strange-looking people might have more difficult combat tasks in the future, so he revealed a very important news to Zhang Chi.
Although the Allied commanders gained control of the Normandy area and created an extremely vast landing site, the battle in Caen was the core element that determined whether the Allied forces could gain a foothold in France.
Although the Allied commanders did not deny their optimism about the entire war, being able to kill more enemies now means that subsequent battles can go more smoothly.
Obviously, the Caen battlefield, which had dragged on for nearly half a month, was now completely insufficient to achieve the purpose of a surprise attack. Whether the enemy wanted to retreat or increase troop support, they already had ample time to react.
The Allies may have a final offensive in the near future. If everyone in the team is going to the battlefield, they must be prepared to be sent to that battlefield.
Everyone in the team felt awe-struck. There was no doubt that the system was revealing the next combat arrangements to them in this way.
The originally happy discharge ceremony was cast into a haze.
Everyone in the team didn't want to hear the news, but they knew very well that this would happen sooner or later.
The system will not allow the team to travel in the game.
Sure enough, not long after everyone returned to the apartment where they were resting, Mark, whom they hadn't seen for a long time, came to visit. It was natural that he came to visit Qi Zhen, who had just been discharged from the hospital, and also to see how everyone was doing.
Everyone knew in their hearts that the other party was just an NPC who obeyed the arrangements of the system, and they also knew that his visit this time was definitely not as simple as a visit, but their expressions were not very good.
"I just received an order from the headquarters. Our mission will start in five days. At noon five days later, we will gather on a military plane and head to the combat area. The combat mission will be issued on the plane. A car will pick us up at that time. You guys, get ready." Mark showed no embarrassment at all and just talked about the mission in a serious manner.
"Okay, do you want to have dinner with us tonight?" Qi Zhen was relatively calm and asked with a smile.
"Is that okay?" Mark asked, obviously flattered.
You know, in traditional British etiquette, inviting others to your home for dinner means that you have recognized the other person as a close friend outside of work.
Obviously, both parties have experienced life and death together on the battlefield. In Qi Zhen's view, this is already the greatest friendship.
"Of course. To celebrate my recovery from a serious illness, we are going to hold a party in the apartment, and I hope you and your family can attend." Qi Zhen nodded with a smile, "Try our Chinese cooking skills. "
"Okay, then I'll go back and prepare first." Mark said in a panic, and the curly bangs on his forehead were trembling slightly at this time.
"Don't be nervous, we have been on the battlefield together." Qi Zhen said with a smile.
The two parties agreed on a time. After Mark left, Wang Jianguo still muttered about why he invited this guy to dinner, and he didn't have enough to eat.
Obviously, they got the news one after another that they were going to go out to fight, which greatly diluted the joy of Qi Zhen being discharged from the hospital. The interest of everyone in the team was dampened a little.
This is life.
It was still Lao Wangtou who was the chef and the two little girls took charge. The other members went back to their rooms to prepare their own special dishes. The sudden increase in the standard of the meal made everyone in the team feel a little strange.
It was originally Qi Zhen's discharge welcome ceremony, but now the agenda of entertaining guests has been added. More importantly, this dinner has the meaning of practice for everyone in the team, and it is really a three-in-one meal.
Time always passes extremely fast when you are busy.
Except for Qi Zhen, Liang Sicheng, and Lin Biao, who were discussing the next battle the team would face, everyone else was busy with the evening meal.
Whether it is Lin Bian or Liang Sicheng, they have a fairly good understanding of the background of World War II. They have also studied key battles such as the Normandy landing, but they are not very clear about other small battles, such as the bloody battle of Caen after Normandy.
This means that when they go to the battlefield this time, they will probably have a blind eye and will have to adapt accordingly.
