My own war game

Chapter 72: The Little Tramp and the Mayflower

"Camille! My wife's name is Camille!"

The man's shout attracted He Chi's attention. The name was too familiar to him, so he subconsciously said, "He Lu. Camille?"

He Chi's voice was not loud, but the man heard it. He excitedly pressed He Chi's shoulders and said, "Yes, He Lu Camille, she is my wife. Is she on board?!"

He Chi looked at the man in front of him. He had messy stubble, bloodshot eyes, and wrinkles on his forehead, but he still recognized that this was an old acquaintance of his, Lieutenant Jason.

Oh, no, it should be captain now.

From what he said, he had already married Camille. I remembered that he liked to tease that young girl at that time, and he didn't expect that he actually succeeded.

He got promoted, got married, and all the good things happened to him. He Chi couldn't help but smile and forgot to respond for a moment.

"Hey! Have you seen my wife?" Seeing that the other party did not reply, the man became anxious again.

He Chi was stunned for a moment before he remembered that his current appearance was different from the previous copy, and Jason could not recognize him.

"Oh, sorry, I just heard the name from the nurse who just came on board, but I didn't see him in person."

Bang!

Captain Jason, who was holding He Chi, was suddenly hit on the head.

"Which bastard dares to hit me!" The captain turned around angrily, and then his expression froze. He said with a guilty conscience, "Sweetheart, it's you~~"

"Honey, please don't harass the staff!" An elegant woman in her thirties with flaxen hair stood in front of him with her hands on her hips, holding a large medical tray that looked like a murder weapon in one hand. The expression on her face was complicated, as if she was relieved, troubled, and a little helpless.

Although her temperament was completely different, He Chi still recognized her at a glance as the youngest girl in the battle at Rose Manor - He Lu Camille.

Camille, who had married, had long lost her youthfulness. She looked smart and capable in the uniform of a head nurse. She pulled her husband away and bowed slightly to He Chi. "I'm sorry, my husband can be a bit nervous sometimes, please don't mind it."

Looking at Camille, who had become a well-mannered lady, He Chi felt relieved but also a little dislocated. He continued, "There is still a seat on the boat. Does the nurse want to come up?"

"Okay!" "No!"

The husband and wife spoke at the same time, but they expressed completely different choices.

"Sweetheart, the ship is in a very tense situation right now. You'd better go aboard first. The Germans may attack us in one or two days." Captain Jason urged anxiously.

Camille shook her head gently. "I know you care about me, but there are more than a hundred injured people here. If the nurses leave, who will take care of them?"

"But..." Jason was about to speak when a slender finger pressed his lips.

"Honey, do you remember why I agreed to marry you?"

She walked over and gently stroked her husband's bearded face. "Twenty years ago, do you still remember what that man said? You looked so handsome when you stayed there to protect me."

This sentence made the couple fall into memories. Jason sighed and said, "Okay, but you must leave after the wounded are evacuated."

"Of course, I will live well. Besides, won't you protect me?" Camille looked at her lover with beautiful eyes.

Ahem! He Chi on the side coughed lightly, interrupting the two people who were still showing off their affection. "Madam, please make a decision as soon as possible. We are about to send the ship."

"I'm sorry, your tone is a bit like that of an old friend of ours. He and you are both from the Oriental world, so I remembered some past events. Please send the ship, I will wait until the wounded leave." Camille tied her hair, her expression calm and composed.

The boat left the shore. He Chi looked at Camille, who stayed on the beach with a lamp in her hand to check for the injured. He felt complicated. The once ignorant little girl has grown into an outstanding woman who is calm in the face of adversity and can stand on her own. He could only sigh that the impact of time on people is really amazing.

I hope they are both safe.

That day, the Little Ranger sailed to the port of Dover carrying the first wave of medical and logistical personnel.

Every place on the ship was packed with people, and many cabins that were originally designed for one person now had two or three people crammed into them.

Most of the passengers were not in good condition, and many of them had fear and panic in their eyes.

On the deck, a message popped up in He Chi's right eye retina: "Little Wanderer: Rescued 139 allied forces, current ranking: th"

"Alas, it's still not enough." He Chi sighed. Even though all the extra items on the ship had been thrown away, 139 people was already the limit for this small passenger ferry, so on the first day, he was left out of the top ten.

In this case, the mission may not be completed at all.

There was a whistle sound.

A civilian fishing boat passed by, and He Chi could see the name "Mayflower" on the side of the ship. A message popped up in his right eye. [Mayflower: Rescued 40 Allied Forces, current ranking: th]

The Dunkirk evacuation was called the Miracle of Small Boats. It was thanks to the joint efforts of these small fishing boats that could only carry dozens of people at a time that most of the Allied forces were able to evacuate.

Seeing the British ship also flying the Union Jack, the sailors of the Little Traveler whistled to the opposite side, and the people on the Mayflower shook their hats in response.

Woo! Woo!!! Woo!!!

A shrill voice was heard; it was the alarm sounded by the destroyer HMS Foxhound that was escorting the fleet.

Accompanied by alarm sounds, six small black dots appeared in the sky and began to dive after discovering the fleet!
hold head high!!!!!!!
Unlike other planes, the sounds of these six planes were very sharp, like the roar of some animal.

He Chi had heard this sound in the information.

Stuka! Death Scream!!
"Everyone get into the cabin! Hurry up!" He Chi shouted and immediately rushed towards an anti-aircraft machine gun.

BANG BANG BANG!!! BANG BANG BANG!!! BANG BANG BANG!!!
The triple 40mm anti-aircraft guns on the Foxhound destroyer began firing into the air, and other ships in the fleet with anti-aircraft firepower also opened fire.

However, the newly developed Stuka was very flexible. Six planes flew over the sea like dragonflies skimming the water, dropping densely packed small ball-like bombs, and then shook their butts and flew away into the distance.

Boom boom boom! ! !
Explosions rang out one after another in the fleet. This type of miniature bomb, called a "butterfly bomb," had limited damage to large ships, but was a nightmare for small boats. The Mayflower was hit by three bombs and instantly lost its ability to move.

The flag that read "This ship has lost power and requires rescue" was raised, and the completely black Mayflower stopped miserably in the water.

The Little Ranger, which was closest to it, threw out a rope under the command of the captain, grabbing the Mayflower and trying to tow it back to the harbor.

The passenger ship turned into a tugboat, and the speed suddenly increased to 12 knots, and the Little Traveler fell behind.

When He Chi was getting anxious, he suddenly found that the numbers in his right eye had changed.

[Little Wanderer: rescued 175 allies, current ranking: ninth]
