The "signal" mentioned by Wu Min refers to the assembly direction indicated by Zhang Chi and others to the tank troops who broke out of the battlefield.

This method of indicating the direction is naturally like Disoya said, digging a gap in the upside-down gasoline barrel and lit a torch inside, so that only one specific direction can see the flame.

Not to mention, this method is practical in the desert, which is convenient, without cost and almost no danger... Since only a specific direction can be seen, it is difficult for the German army to discover it. Zhang Chi then commanded the anti-tank troops to ambush around the torch nearby... If the German army came up, it happened to be an ambush, and if the person came up, it would cover it.

After a while, a "rumbling" motor sound came from the darkness. Two half-tracked armored vehicles carefully stepped forward to reconnaissance. Then Zhang Chi received a report: "The deputy military captain is our army, Wu Tuanzu and the others are back!"

"Very good!" Zhang Chi couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and then asked again: "How many tanks are coming back? How about the casualties?"

"Deputy Military Seat!" After a while, Wu Min's voice came from the walkie-talkie: "We still have 61 tanks, and the specific casualties are not yet counted!"

"Yeah!" Zhang Chi replied.

There were originally eighty-two tanks, but now only sixty are back, which means twenty-one is lost... This is also a considerable loss for the Expeditionary Force.

It’s a pity that Zhang Chi is not the tanks, but the Expeditionary Force soldiers. For the Expeditionary Force, people are always the scarce resource.

However, it was not considered out of danger at this time. If the German reinforcements or tank troops followed again, it would be not so easy to get rid of it. So Zhang Chi did not think too much and ordered: "Everyone has it, go back to Mahelama!"

"Yes, go back to Mahelama!"

...

"General!" On the way back, Disoya caught up with Zhang Chi's half-track armored vehicle and said, "Can I say a few words to you?"

"Of course!" Zhang Chi replied, feeling a little strange. What can't you wait until you return to the camp before talking about it?

I saw Disoya bowing to Zhang Chi with his hands and saying, "General, I want to borrow your witch doctor..."

Zhang Chi couldn't help but be stunned, and then laughed.

"Sorry, Disoya!" Zhang Chi replied: "I can't lend you the witch doctor because we don't have witch doctors at all!"

"No witch doctor?" DiSoya couldn't believe what Zhang Chi said and said, "This is impossible. If there were no witch doctors, how could your tanks be able to survive so many German tanks? This must be some kind of clever witchcraft!"

Zhang Chi didn't know how to explain to Disaoya, so he had to ask back: "So, have you seen us perform any witchcraft or ritual?"

Disoya was asked because he had been with the Expeditionary Force for this period, and it was almost impossible to say that he had never seen any props or rituals used by the Expeditionary Force.

Zhang Chi did not intend to convince Di Soya because Zhang Chi knew that things about witchcraft could already be regarded as a belief for Africans.

Regardless of whether this belief is good or bad or scientific, it would be painful to find that what you believe from birth is fake and unreliable, just as many intellectuals in China blamed China's fragility on Chinese culture at this time.
