Not long after the battle broke out on the side of the Paris City Hall, heavy gunfire rang out at other basic targets in the city, especially the Élysée Palace, where the presidential palace is located, and the Brynne Palace, where the Ministry of Defense is located.

These two locations were the main defensive points of the operation, and the main defensive points of the garrison in the city of Paris were also here, so in order to accomplish the intended objectives, the Mobile Task Force gathered more than two-thirds of its troops around these two locations. More than 1,000 armed men are now fighting in the 8th arrondissement of Paris, where the Élysée Palace is located, and the 14th arrondissement, where the Palais de Brennes is located, while the combined number of the two sides in Paris is more than 2,500.

If it weren't for the towering Eiffel Tower and the beautiful Louvre, some people would think that this is the front line rather than the "safe" stronghold.

Although the soldiers of the Mobile Task Force and the Ghost Force are of high quality, they can only barely maintain the defensive line by relying on buildings in the face of a siege of more than 2,000 men.

However, judging from the current casualties, it is more than enough for the German side to support the latest one and a half points of the plan.

But just as everyone was fighting bloodily, bad news came.

"Sir! News from the reconnaissance force outside the city! A gray-faced soldier in civilian clothes hurried up to Manfred and shouted, "They say there's an infantry regiment outside the city that is rapidly coming to support the city!" They have already begun to block the attack, but they are too few in number, and they can only slow down the French regular army by bombing the road, and it is expected that they will be there for us in another 20 minutes at most! ”

"What?" Manfred froze in astonishment, but a bullet that grazed his scalp immediately brought him to his senses, and he quickly shrank to the left behind a scrap car. 、

"What's the situation?! Why did a regular army suddenly appear outside the city? Manfred was furious.

Because this mission is very important and extremely difficult, the strength of the enemy and the possible situation have been carefully calculated and confirmed in advance, and the sudden addition of an out-of-situation regular army like the current one is very likely to lead to the failure of the mission and even the total annihilation of the Mobile Task Force and the Ghost.

"What does the Ministry of Intelligence eat? It's a whole group! How could such a big target not be announced in advance?! Manfred yelled.

"Our captain has already asked the Ministry of Intelligence, and according to them, the Ministry of Intelligence has been informed of the existence of this unit in advance...... "The soldier replied.

"Has it been reported?!" Manfred pulled a document out of his pocket, slapped it on the ground and said, "Why didn't I see that?" Well? ”

"Uh...... The intelligence department said that the unit outside was this one. The soldier said as he pointed to one of the papers.

It was marked with the closest unit to the city of Paris that Manfred had mentioned to Claire.

"They? Aren't they fifty kilometers away from us? Why is it suddenly under my nose? ”

"The Ministry of Intelligence said they didn't know either, anyway, they had already informed them in advance......"

"Damn! It's a moth of the Empire! Manfred gritted his teeth and said, "At this time, I'm still shirking responsibility!" I'm so ashamed of them! ”

"So, sir, are we going to retreat and abandon this mission?" The soldier asked cautiously, for fear of angering the person in front of him.

"You have to be polite when you talk to him, it is rumored that he is the illegitimate son of the Führer." - He remembered the tone of jealousy in which the captain asked him to ask if he could retreat.

Manfred raised his hand and glanced at his watch.

The hand is pointing at 12:45.

"Fifteen minutes to go......" Manfred looked up at the messy plaza and gritted his teeth unwillingly, "No retreat!" Keep holding on to our position and wait for the 'Peregrine Falcon'! ”

"Not retreating?" The soldier asked.

"Don't retreat! I don't want to repeat it a second time! Manfred said, raising his gun and knocking an exposed cop to the ground, "Go back to your seat and tell them to keep holding their ground." ”

"Well......" the soldier sighed, he felt that the day of dedication to the Führer for Germany was just around the corner.

Manfred glanced at Claire, Conrad and the others who were shooting not far away, thought about it for a while, and shouted to stop the soldiers who had just run out of cover to deliver orders.

"Wait!"

When the soldier heard Manfred's shout, he quickly stopped, lay on the ground and said, "Sir? ”

"Tell your captain, advance the original evacuation time by 20 minutes, and if the 'peregrine falcon' does not come by 1:10, we will abandon the mission and break through to the evacuation point."

The soldier was stunned when he heard this, and then nodded excitedly: "Okay!" I'll pass your word on to the captain! ”

With that, he got up and ran to the MTF commander again.

As the minutes ticked by, there were more and more corpses in the square, most of them police officers in police uniforms, French soldiers in military uniforms, but there were also many Mobile Task Force soldiers in civilian clothes and M35 steel helmets on their heads.

The situation became more and more dire, and Manfred had to abandon a few well-protected but out-of-the-box defensive nodes, shrinking the battle line to prevent the guards in the town hall from covering the big man from escaping.

Just as Manfred was barely holding on, a regular French army of about 100 men arrived outside the square and quickly entered the battle.

Manfred watched another wave of enemies rush in, and anxiously raised his hand to look at his watch.

Eight minutes ago, the hour hand had passed the one-point scale, but the planned "Peregrine Falcon" had not yet arrived.

At the same time, in the mayor's office of the town hall building, Hidalgo, escorted by more than twenty guards, looked down at the fiercely fought battlefield and sneered.

"Gentlemen, those Germans are going to run out." "I don't know how they got to Paris, but I know they don't want to leave Paris!" ”

"Hahaha!" The others laughed in response.

"Führer, I did my best......" Manfred glanced up at the building behind him.

"Sir! We can't stand it! We have to retreat! ”

Manfred punched the ground and reluctantly shouted, "Everyone! Cover each other and retreat to the intended evacuation point! Correspondent! Shoot three green flares! Tell the person who answered to help us ............"

However, just as Manfred gave the order to retreat, and everyone thought that the mission had failed, there was a roar in the distant sky, from far and near.

It was a group of fifty-two four-engine long-range bombers and thirty-seven heavy fighters, and the black iron cross on a red background under the wings showed their strength.

The Peregrine Falcon is coming!
