In this era when there is no radar, no matter how strict the air cordon is, it is basically useless at night. The Lorraine guerrillas went completely underground – this meant that in the vast majority of cases they carried out only covert intelligence activities, and did not use force against the occupiers unless they were forced to do so, and in the case of assassinations and assaults, they were limited to individual operations. In order to cooperate with the return to Lorraine led by General Punk, the intelligence officers of the Union Army lurking in the shadows and the guerrilla fighters who were still operating under the command of the organization provided timely information about the deployment and vigilance of the Norman garrisons in various places, and helped General Punk's command find a safe and effective "air corridor".

In the middle of the night, in the Norman-occupied region of Lorraine, in the remote and uninhabited mountains and valleys, two high-speed transport ships of the Federation Army skimmed the treetops with dexterity, agility and silence. On this dimly lit night, the dark paint gives them a natural protective colour, and the kerosene engine gives them a strong and "understated" action.

Seeing a faint and regular point of light appear in the line of sight, the two high-speed transport ships adjusted their course slightly, "pounced" like falcons fishing, and quickly and smoothly stopped in the open space marked by the light spot. Hatches opened, and soldiers with guns and bags leaped down, and under the guidance of their responders, they worked in pairs and dragged the supply canisters into the woods. In less than ten minutes, two high-speed transport ships rose from the ground and swung on to the same route.

After more than two months, Weiss stood on the land of Lorraine again, and his heart was full of mixed feelings. In the woods, someone walked up quickly, looked at his face, and said excitedly, "Sir Clumber-Haisen, it is great to see you again!" ”

Weiss recognized the comer as soon as he heard the voice, and he gave the other a warm hug without hesitation: "Hey, Carmen Eteslemedes, brother, it's great that you're still alive!" ”

The guerrilla fighter in front of him was one of the people who broke through in the last battle, in such a harsh environment, in the midst of the heavy encirclement of the Norman army, he was able to survive, and he was indeed dead, and he insisted on resisting at a moment of near despair, and his spiritual character was not to be picked!

"It's Carmen Etteson Maides, sir! A few months ago, we heard from other Resistance groups that we were planning to go to Somsonas to rescue you from the Normans, only to hear that you had been taken away by the Normans, and we have not heard from you since, and we thought something had happened to you. The visitor said this without the slightest taboo in words. After fighting guerrilla warfare in enemy-occupied areas for more than a year, and holding on to many difficulties for several months, it is not surprising that he has such an open-mindedness to look at life and death with such a smile.

"I went to do a big deal, saved people, and robbed the Normans of their secret weapon." Weiss briefly revealed what he had done, but this was not a place to chat, and when the number of people in each company and platoon was counted, he let the guerrilla fighters lead the way in front and quickly move to a hidden location deep in the woods.

Two high-speed transport ships brought 600 advance team fighters along with the first batch of combat materials in one go. Weiss personally led the team, both as a pioneer and as a field commander - General Punk was good at intelligence and organization, so he chose to sit in the rear to coordinate and dispatch, and this 2,400-strong Lorraine guerrilla advance team, with Weiss as the first commander, will continue to hold important positions when the follow-up troops arrive. In this regard, General Punk did show sincerity.

After several hours of trekking, the first wave of 600 advance fighters arrived at the resistance camp deep in the forest just before dawn. Speaking of which, this secret camp located in the southwest of the mountain city of Slien is still a backup base established by Weiss and other resistance groups, and its main body is a natural cave, although the conditions are simple, the reserves are small, especially the lack of water sources, and it is not suitable for a large number of people to be stationed for a long time, but it is better to be hidden in a hidden position, not easy to be detected by the Norman air patrol force, as the first hidden assembly point after the federal guerrilla advance team landed in Lorraine.

In accordance with the pre-agreed method, after the first advance team had safely arrived at the concealed assembly point, a short piece of code was sent at a specific frequency at the next hour. After receiving the agreed signal, the guerrilla warfare command of the federal army began to deploy the second wave of airdrops, and the remaining troops and horses of the advance team and the advanced equipment and materials will be in place at one time in the next few days.

In guerrilla warfare, radio contact is the most likely but often indispensable way to reveal one's location. Even with a short code, Weiss still deployed a large number of observation posts around the camp, especially to guard against enemy situations in the air. However, the effective distance of this alert was limited to visual range, and in order to be warned, it was necessary to pay close attention to the movements of Norman garrisons in various places, which necessarily depended on the existing resistance intelligence network. Before the last battle of the Lorraine guerrilla fighters, the resistance groups in the entire Lorraine area had suffered heavy losses under the continuous pressure of the Normans, and in the last battle, the organized military resistance of the Lorraine people was completely collapsed, but the resistance of the Lorraine people never stopped, and the guerrilla fighters who went underground joined forces with the intelligence department of the federal army and resistance organizations in various places, so that the resistance intelligence network of Lorraine was tenaciously preserved under the repeated strangulation of the Norman army, and even quietly developed and matured.

On the first day of Weiss's return to Lorraine, the Normans did not seem to say anything. Weiss had studied the available intelligence in detail before landing here, and now consulted with the resisters who were holding out in the area, convinced that the Norman military presence in Lorraine had continued unabated. The military governor of Lorraine was still his "rebellious" brother, and in terms of tactics and tactics, he was indeed a formidable adversary, and as long as he was in the day, Weiss did not dare to let his guard down, nor did he dare to hope for the enemy's "inaction". However, due to the size and rank of the garrison force exceeding the rank of the Baron alla Scala, the military governor was not able to really command the military affairs of the jurisdiction, and the efficiency of military operations must have been affected somewhat.

That night, another old acquaintance who had fought side by side arrived from another secret camp. As soon as they met, this old man did not talk about old relationships, nor did he pull relationships, nor did he meet with a smile and enmity, but there was some hint of asking for guilt, which made Weiss both embarrassed and self-reproachful. Although the quality of the reserve troops of Somsonas is not as good as that of the front-line troops, it is much better than those who spontaneously joined the resistance movement, and in addition to the advance transfer of personnel, equipment and materials from the Clumber-Heisen factory, they have obvious advantages in equipment and supplies, and have received all kinds of support from the federal military, so they have become the "leading big brother" of various resistance organizations in the Lorraine area. Moren Palach in front of him is one of them. He was originally one of the leaders of the southern resistance group in Lorraine, the last battle of the Lorraine guerrilla fighters, he and his men participated in the whole process, and successfully led the troops to break through at the last moment. It stands to reason that he and Weiss were born and died, if not in a fateful relationship, but before the final battle, Palach questioned the loyalty of the Clumber-Haysom family. The reason is simple, the eldest son of the old lord was entrusted with important tasks by the Normans, and he was precisely the military governor of Lorraine, and the second son served for the Confederation, but he was the leader of the resistance in Lorraine.

At the time, Palach questioned not Weiss's loyalty, but how could the two blood-related brothers go all out on opposite sides? Later, Weiss went to the meeting alone, met his elusive brother at the Château of the Clumber-Heyssen family, and soon after returning to the secret camp, the final battle of the "avalanche" of Lorraine's guerrilla warfare took place. Palach came this time, but he didn't say anything on the surface, and he felt that Weiss wanted to ask for an explanation for the brothers who died in that tragic battle. Moreover, Weiss returned to Lorraine, and the Baron Scala Sabre was still the Norman military governor in Lorraine, and the brothers clashed again, whether it was a real fight or a routine, and Palach did not inexplicably put himself and his brothers on the line with their lives.

Back in Lorraine, Weiss himself had to face the problem, even if no one brought it up. Admittedly, when he became a prisoner of war by the Normans, the Baron alla Scala provided him with a degree of protection, either explicitly or implicitly, but this did not affect his position – nor did it change Weiss's. In the final battle to destroy the Lorraine guerrillas, the brothers stood on opposite sides without hesitation, and they knew very well that blood ties and family honor were not enough to make each other give up their ideals and beliefs, so they did not have to have illusions.

"Believe it or not, when I was trapped in Somsonas, I had made a complete break with him. He is no longer Ze Klenber Haysen, and if they meet on the battlefield, they are only familiar enemies," Weistan said to Palach.

Palach was not a hot-blooded young man, and he would be moved to tears when he heard such resolute words, but he looked at Weiss coldly, and replied in a questioning tone: "As citizens of the Union, it is incumbent upon us to call the country and the army, but the painful memory is still vivid in our minds, and we have to be more vigilant...... What is the relationship between a direct member of the Clumber-Heyssen family and another direct member of the Clumber-Heyssen family? If there is only one of these two people left, then the problems I am talking about will no longer be a problem. ”

Weiss couldn't help frowning, the other party thought he was shaken, so he snorted coldly, turned around and prepared to leave. At this time, Weiss said to him: "If there is a chance to kill him, I will not be relentless." In fact, the uprooting of the enemy's command structure in Lorraine was the main operational objective of the first phase of our return to Lorraine, and if it went well, there would soon be only one of the two Clumber-Haysens. ”

Palach turned his head and said, "If that day comes, I will welcome you back with open arms." ”
