In the early morning, the sky was covered with goose feathers and snow, and the whole world was white, except for the wessex assault ship that flew over the top, abruptly intruding into this light-toned space with a dark color paint, of course, obsessive-compulsive people could not bear this visual difference, and in the eyes of the resisters, its existence added to the resentful oppression.

Deep in the forest, on a tall truss tree, Weiss wore a white camouflage suit made by the Resistance and silently watched the Norman warship descend like a black cloud. This guy is not only domineering in appearance, but also has a five-digit combat potential and equivalent protection, although it is not at the top level, but it is not too much, especially the unique anti-collision structure of the assault ship, which is enough to withstand the impact of large-yield ground bombs. Extrapolating from the two values of biological function and mental vitality, the battleship has about 1,500 crew members, two or three hundred more than the top battleships that have crisscrossed the battlefield in the past, and it is believed that it carries at least one company-sized marines. Not fast enough? In such a stormy and snowy weather, whether on foot, horseback, car or plane, I am afraid that it is not as efficient as moving.

There was no chance of a hard shake, and there seemed to be a glimmer of hope for a surprise attack while it landed to rest. In the mountains of Lorraine, the Sacred Pillar Square in the mountain city of Slien is the only place where large warships can anchor and replenish supplies, and the take-off and landing of Norman ships in Slien has been very frequent recently.

This terrible strategy and layout seem to be the work of the military governor of Lorraine.

Is it really you, Ze?

What kind of opponent are you?

A total traitor? Or, just to show off your talents, didn't expect it to come to such a point?

Weiss was hungry for answers to all these questions, but he couldn't find the right opportunity for dialogue. It is impossible to visit the door in person, and if you do not handle it well, you may be notorious as a collaborator and cause the Lorraine resistance front to fall apart.

The only way to do this is to wait until the opportunity arises.

In the sky, the Wessex assault ships, controlled by the Normans, sailed in a straight line as usual, tirelessly cruising every mountain forest in the mountains of Lorraine. After repeated sweeps in the early stage, there are now very few targets that need to be searched or bombarded, so that the patrol has become a punch-card activity, and such a peaceful situation has made the life of the resisters more and more difficult day by day......

Weiss did not intend to get off the tree until the assault ship was out of view. This seemingly unremarkable mountain forest is where the secret camp No. 2 of the "Lorraine guerrilla fighters" is located, and at the northern end of the mountain forest is a saltpeter mine that has been abandoned for many years, and deep in the mine tunnel hides the secret camp No. 4 of the resistance - which is also an important production base and secret material warehouse. Workers at the Clumberg-Heysen plant used engineering to create several "firewalls" that kept the secret base safe during two Norman army raids of the mine. Not only that, but the workers also used the waste materials left over from the mining in the mines to make gunpowder, although the production was small and the quality was limited, which did not have much impact on the overall situation, but for the resistance fighters, this "source of water" gave them more spiritual and psychological confidence.

In the wind and snow, four ships flew in the direction of Somsonas, and if you look closely, they are two cruisers and two transports. After their appearance, the assault ship, flying in a straight line, slowly turned and eventually flew in the direction of the saltpeter field.

Seeing this scene, Weiss, who was experienced in the face of the enemy, immediately realized that the situation was not good. He didn't have time to move his limbs, which were stiff from staying still for a long time, he slid down the tree with the trunk of the tree, opened the clamshell of the tunnel under the tree, and quickly got in, shouting at the communication soldiers waiting there: "Quickly send an enemy attack warning to everyone!" The enemy is heading for our Camp 4! Inform everyone to prepare for the emergency evacuation plan if necessary! ”

The young communications soldier, Fava, was a native of Somsonas, whose father and grandparents were hired by the Clumber-Heisen family, and Fawa was no exception. After the Norman army occupied Lorraine and the Clumber-Heisen factory was evacuated, he moved with his workers to a secret camp, and after a while, due to energy and material difficulties, the scale of production was repeatedly reduced, and he volunteered to join the front line of guerrilla warfare. Weiss came here to observe the enemy's activities, and in order to inform the camp as soon as the enemy situation appeared, he asked Fava to come with a homemade field telephone equipment and lay temporary lines along the way, which really came in handy.

After hastily explaining, Weiss squeezed past Fava and ran as best he could in the direction of Secret Camp 2. The underground resistance system of "Lorraine guerrilla fighters" has 11 secret strongholds and 25 separate secret material warehouses at most, with 4000+ non-combatants, and the monthly output of weapons and ammunition exceeds the maximum consumption of this resistance force, but under the sweep of the Norman army round after round, more and more secret strongholds and material warehouses have been discovered and destroyed by the enemy, and there are only 5 secret strongholds still in use today, and among these 5, only 2 were set up by the Norman army before occupying Lorraine, The number of secret warehouses was reduced to 13 - 12 were set up before the arrival of the Normans, and the total amount of stockpiles had fallen by more than two-thirds, and several categories had been exhausted.

The No. 4 secret camp at the northern end of the mountain forest is not only a cantonment point, but also a living area, and has the functions of a production base and a material warehouse. Right now, there are close to 200 fighters and enough weapons and ammunition to deal with a fierce battle. As he runs, Weiss quickly assesses the situation and weighs the pros and cons: the recent repeated "black hands" of secret strongholds and material warehouses show that the opponent has found a breakthrough to dig out the resistance "underground", and there are no impermeable walls in this world. If the enemy does not know what is going on, but only purposefully conducts a search, then he will lead a large group of people to attack from east to west, divert the enemy's attention, and buy time for the transfer of personnel from secret camp No. 4, but if the enemy already knows the exact location of secret camp No. 4, the next step is the difficult choice of who to sacrifice and who to keep - there are more than 600 people in the camp, more than half of them are technicians and workers, and the rest are their dependents who are not able to work, including many children, this is the "Lorraine guerrilla fighters" If the most valuable human wealth is given up and the combat effectiveness is preserved, it will be a heavy blow to the confidence and even faith of the people, and if they are desperately rescued, it is very likely that the team with the most combat experience, training and equipment in the Lorraine region will be sacrificed.

Running all the way, I finally came to Secret Camp 2. Receiving an alarm message from Fawa through the telephone line, the soldiers are ready to go to battle at any time.

Seeing that Weiss had returned, Major Ezerson hurriedly said to him: "Judging from what we have observed, the enemy is indeed heading for our Camp 4!" We've contacted Camp 4 and asked them to close all passages, hopefully this time we can get away from the enemy. ”

Weiss was anxious, but when Major Ezelson and the partisan fighters focused on themselves, he deliberately maintained a calm and calm posture: "We must not pin our hopes on the enemy, we must prepare for the worst. ”

Palach, who led his troops to live here, resolutely said: "The enemy is now, Colonel, my soldiers and I are at your disposal at any time. Even in the most brutal battles, we will never take half a step back! ”

Totenberg's team, which was only half the size of Palach, and had voluntarily been incorporated into the combat detachment of the "Guerrilla Fighters of Lorraine", which could be seen as a fusion of the two partisans. Even so, he made the same statement as Palach.

"If we had a few more planes, it wouldn't be too bad, but now...... We'll have to use our weapons to fight the enemy's flying ships. Weiss didn't say the second half of the sentence, and the meaning of his words was clear to everyone present.

"Don't care so much about it for now, the top priority is to deploy the battle line!" Major Ezerson showed his judgment and determination as a professional soldier and professional staff officer.

"6 detachments, leave 1 to answer, and the rest all rush to Camp 4, spread out in this area of the valley, waiting for the opportunity to move, how about it?" Weiss was familiar with the terrain and didn't need a map to plan the layout.

"We think the same thing." Major Ezerson replied, "The 6th detachment is here as a general reserve, waiting for orders. Detachments 1 to 5 went to the valley as fast as they could, from north to south. The specific tactics will depend on the situation when they get there. ”

Weiss looked down at his watch: "Without further ado, the detachments will set off immediately." Although the personnel of Camp 4 have little combat capability, they have conducted three emergency evacuation drills before, and they are no strangers to the evacuation order and evacuation routes. If nothing else, within two hours, everyone will be able to evacuate the mine, and within five hours, evacuate to a safe area. ”

Major Ezerson immediately beckoned the commanders of the detachments to set off with their respective teams, and after everyone dispersed, he leaned closer and said, "I talked to Matt just now, and he mentioned that your sister Bella is also in Camp 4 today. On the phone, I don't have a chance to say more, but I'm sure he'll take care of Bella. ”

As an aside, Weiss certainly understood. Bella would go to Camp 4 because there was the production of winter camouflage clothing and medical gauze, and Matt was an old subordinate he brought from the Somsonas Reserve, needless to say, he would prioritize the evacuation of important personnel, but if the situation he feared really came out - the Normans had the information to go, then in addition to raiding the mines, it was likely to blockade and probe the surrounding area to find and cut off the tunnels of the Resistance, if so, what was the use of prioritizing evacuation?
