The commanding height of this mountain forest, where gunfire is loud and gunsmoke is everywhere, is a lonely mountain with rocky mountains. About fifty feet from the top of the ridge, Weiss, dressed in white camouflage suit, crawled in a pre-dug foxhole. Beside him was a young soldier from the second reserve of Somsonas, who guarded a field phone, vigilantly observing his surroundings while waiting for Weiss's orders. This telephone, which went directly to the camp headquarters, was specially designed to transmit the enemy situation back to the camp headquarters, and when Weiss himself sat here, it became the second command center of the resistance.

In the field of view of the sniper scope, Weiss closely watched the battle in the direction of the pass. The attacking Norman army had at least one and a half regiments, and the resistance at the pass position had only a combat detachment of more than 60 men, and even if the Normans only sent one battalion to serve as the vanguard, the strength of the enemy in this resistance battle was quite disparity. You must know that in the Norman Empire, which was extremely advocating force, all kinds of conventional resources were given priority to the army, and the elite degree of the first-line combat units was needless to say, and even the military quality and combat ability of the second-line troops were quite strong. In such a positional defensive battle, a company of Union Army troops may not be able to withstand the frontal assault of a battalion of Norman troops, and although the guerrilla fighters have persisted in fighting in a harsh environment for a long time and have forged an iron will and skills to adapt to fighting behind enemy lines, their ability to fight head-on is certainly not comparable to that of the Union Army. The reason why this seemingly one-touch battle line was able to hold under the onslaught of the Norman army was undoubtedly the ultimate use of the terrain and geography and the existing weapons and equipment by the resistance forces - the mortar positions behind the side of the pass were located in the "blind spots" that could not be observed by the enemy's ground forces and could not be covered by conventional artillery, and the machine guns and machine guns were set up in the woodland on both sides of the pass, covered by thick tree trunks and stumps, and the shooters knew how to use the principle of cross-fire and ballistic projectiles. In order to maximize the lethality effect of the Norman soldiers in defensive operations, in addition, the carefully laid minefields also made the Normans defenseless......

In the bitter cold wind, the Norman army tirelessly launched round after round of attacks, and by the time Weiss saw the figure of the Norman soldier appear at the pass, the time had passed an hour and a half. According to the battle plan, the 1st combat detachment defending the pass retreated in an orderly manner, and the pass position was ceded to the Norman army, which had paid a lot of casualties. Ostensibly, the Normans occupied the pass and opened the door to the Resistance camp, and the resistance had little danger to defend and could only use the woods, pre-constructed bunkers, and tunnels to continue the resistance. Seeing that the defenders of the pass quickly retreated into the woods, the Norman army that captured the pass did not make adjustments, and directly crossed the position and entered the pursuit. Between the pass and the woods, there was an open area about 4,000 feet wide horizontally and about 2,000 feet longitudinally, and there was no shelter to rely on except for some snow hills and rocks. Those Norman soldiers in white winter clothes "rolled" down from the pass like a group of snow, and the vanguard of more than 100 people "rolled" across the open area after a while, and the follow-up troops continued to follow, and the defender's right flank, that is, the woods on the left flank of the attacking side, suddenly burst out of dense firepower, machine guns, machine guns, mortars and a small number of barrel-chambered guns at the same time : The forward force had already pursued into the woods, and the follow-up force was blocked in the open area and the passes, and the distance of two thousand feet was enough to become a tactical chasm in such a skirmish.

Seeing this situation, Weiss decisively ordered the "little brother" to contact the command headquarters, notify the 1st and 4th detachments to press forward, and the 2nd detachment to outflank and attack the Norman army that entered the woods.

Striking and annihilating are two completely different concepts, and the number of troops required, the tactics employed, and the time spent are also very different. In the current state of the war, if we can annihilate this aggressive enemy, we can inflict the greatest damage on the enemy at the psychological level, but this is not a skirmish battle that will be fought and left, but a guerrilla defensive war that resolutely defends the camp.

Relying on the pre-set field communication lines and the agreed signal transmission method, the guerrillas quickly adjusted their tactics: the 1st detachment withdrawn from the pass and the 4th detachment ambushed in the woodland launched a counterattack together, and the 2nd detachment on the flank of the enemy flanked the enemy on the one hand to block the enemy troops in the open area on the one hand, and attacked the enemy entering the woodland on the other.

Dense trees block the view, making it difficult to see the battle in the forest. Weiss's "Eye of God" can certainly penetrate obstacles, but this depleting secret skill cannot be used indefinitely, and compared to the relatively clear situation of daytime combat, the complex and changeable nighttime combat requires the blessing of this auxiliary skill, so it can only be done occasionally at this time - as the sound of gunfire and explosions move from the open area to the depths of the woodland, Weiss activates a special vision that lasts for more than ten seconds.

The Norman soldiers in the forest were pressed on both sides with the temporary loss of support, and the situation was very bad, but they did not become a mess, but quickly retracted the battle line and deployed the defense on the spot. In the woodland, although the mortar shells of the resistance were unscrupulous, the irregularly distributed trees and uneven ground greatly weakened the power of the explosion, providing some convenience for the Norman infantry to defend in place, and the battlefield environment at this moment was suitable for the special operations elite to show their skills. Long-range sniping and close-range raids complement each other, and strafing and mine-throwing complement each other. The guerrilla fighters' skills in woodland warfare were tempered and forcibly broke through the enemy's hard defenses composed of personnel quality and tacit tactical understanding. After a while, the sound of gunfire and explosions in the woodland began to subside, which meant that the commanders of the combat detachments had made a judgment that the tactical order had been reached, and each led his troops out of the battle.

During this period, the Norman forces occupying the pass set up machine guns and light field artillery, quickly reversing their passive situation of being suppressed by resistance to armed fire in the pass and open areas. As soon as the enemy fire from the flanks weakened, the Norman soldiers, who were held back in the open area, immediately moved forward, and they quickly entered the woods. In fact, from the sudden fire interception of the guerrillas from the flanks to the Normans' reversal of the situation, the process lasted only a little more than a quarter of an hour, and the Norman army that entered the battle was exemplary on the battlefield in terms of the rhythm of the transition between attack and defense and the efficiency of accumulating strength to break the situation, leaving the guerrillas with a fleeting opportunity - it was not easy to inflict more than half of the casualties on the enemy's vanguard troops!

The 1st and 4th detachments were ordered to enter the blocking position in Area C, and the 2nd detachment withdrew to the A defense area to wait for the next instruction...... After judging the situation and giving new instructions, Weiss set his sights on the distance. The task of the 3rd detachment was to bypass the pass from the hidden mountain pass, pass through the trail in the minefield, and surprise the enemy artillery and baggage units. Whether they can succeed or not is directly related to whether this camp guard battle can survive the daylight and drag the enemy into the night "overtime".

In the snow-capped mountains and forests, the fierce gunfire drowned out the howl of the cold wind, and with the sound of explosions one after another, black gunpowder smoke rose and rolled in the forest...... The Norman soldiers, like piranhas smelling of blood, crossed the pass in droves and entered the woods through the open area. In this asymmetrical battlefield, they have an absolute superiority in numbers, and it seems that they do not need much tactical means to win, but they are a group of crazy perfectionists, advocating the unity of strength and skill, and are good at groping and using various tactical strategies. After entering the woodland, they marched in unison, echoing left and right. Sometimes it pushes flat, sometimes it pierces; Sometimes it feints, sometimes it bursts. Through the constant change of rhythm and the continuous adjustment of intensity, the opponent is tired and difficult to adapt.

The Normans were menacing and determined to win, and the resistance did not choose to move hastily after learning of the enemy's attack, and it was by no means self-defeating. After the Union forces switched to the strategic counteroffensive, the resistance behind enemy lines gradually recovered, and this secret camp, far from the enemy's strongholds, was not only the last bastion and barrier of the Lorraine people's resistance, but also a symbol and banner of the will to resist condensed into steel. A victory here would be no less significant than any previous ambush and surprise attack on the Norman army......

Receiving orders from the command, the guerrilla fighters quickly gathered their main forces to Area C. It was the core line of defense of the resistance camp, consisting of dozens of civil bunkers and criss-crossing tunnels. These fortified bunkers blend into the terrain and are difficult to destroy without direct artillery fire, while the tunnels facilitate the rapid movement of combatants and can be used as trenches when the roof is lifted. These carefully constructed fortifications allowed the resisters to remain resilient while fighting more with less. In the beginning, as long as the Norman soldiers entered this area, no matter what tactics they used, they basically did not survive ten minutes. It wasn't long before the woodland was littered with Normans. For those who were still alive, the Norman soldiers behind them tried their best to drag them away, and for those who had already died, they could only be allowed to stiffen in the ice and snow.

In Weiss's sniper scope, it is hard to imagine that the Norman soldiers entering Area C have to dodge the bullets fired from the bunker and the spinach bullets thrown from an inexplicable position, and it is hard to imagine that they can continue to attack and push their line forward slowly but continuously. Because it was difficult for the rear artillery to shoot directly at the target, the Norman soldiers at first mostly used spinach bullets, tubular blasters and individual flamethrowers against the resisters' bunkers, and each bunker destroyed cost at least a dozen or twenty lives. It was not until the Normans brought in relatively heavy large-caliber machine guns that the offensive firepower was greatly enhanced, and the defensive advantage of the resisters began to weaken, and the stalemate gradually changed the tide of the battle.

Boom......

The enemy was getting closer, and Weiss on the ridge finally fired his first shot in this battle. Next to a bombed bunker, a Norman soldier who was about to throw a grenade into it fell to the ground, and the grenade fell to the ground, which exploded and blew several Norman soldiers around.
