Perhaps because the blizzard came so suddenly and fiercely, the Germans both sides silently stopped fighting; And retreated to their respective rear positions, waiting for the blizzard to pass.

Even the sea of fire that had arisen not long ago due to the mutual shelling and bombardment was gradually extinguished by the heavy snowfall, and it was covered with a thick snow quilt.

Under such heavy snowfall, even the T-60 light tank and T-70 light tank, which had been eliminated by the Soviet army in order to increase their mobility in swamps and snow, could not be used.

Originally, these two light tanks were intended for reconnaissance and to replace the T-50 light tank to support infantry in combat.

But now they have been defeated by the raging blizzard, and the cold winter that seems to have reached the Arctic, so that they can only stop on the snow, or remain motionless in the barracks, and there is no way to attack.

In addition, whether it was the German army or the Soviet army under such cold and unusually bad weather, they wanted to send the air force again to airdrop supplies to their respective units, military supplies, food, clothing and weapons and equipment, as well as ammunition and other things, there was no way to implement it.

Even dispatching a glider is extremely difficult and dangerous, especially in the middle of a dark and snowstorm like this, and it is even more likely to be life-threatening.

Therefore, the marshals and high-ranking officers on both sides of Germany and the Soviet Union were depressed, and they also had to do everything possible to prevent the enemy from suddenly risking to rush over and carry out a sneak attack on their own troops.

So both sides have deployed some thick patrols in their own frontline areas to patrol and patrol their barracks in case of a surprise attack.

"This snow came very suddenly!"

Hurwitz, a German special forces captain, said to another special forces captain, Ovid.

"Hmmm! The weather on the battlefield on the Eastern Front is always like this! Especially in the cold winter season, if it weren't for Napoleon, Moscow would not have been defeated! ”

Special Forces Captain Ovid smiled as he checked the weapons and equipment in his hands.

"Hey! Don't forget that our Sixth Army Group, as well as many of its troops, were killed by these terrible ice and snow weather on the battlefield on the Eastern Front! ”

"No matter what kind of weather and battle situation, the fighting principle taught to us by the Führer is that even if we have to pay the price of our lives, we must never abandon any comrade-in-arms and not complete the combat mission.

"It is even more powerful than the combat effectiveness of our Brandenburg special forces, and the weapons and equipment we use are also the latest in the latest type! Absolutely world-class! ”

Before Hurwitz, the captain of the special forces, could answer, another special forces captain, Chris, interjected.

"Hmmm! Well said! Let's get ready to go! ”

After the special forces captain Ovid had checked the weapons and equipment he was carrying, he immediately picked up the AK-47 assault rifle in his hand and another AK-74 assault rifle on his back.

Because these two Soviet-made assault rifles can maintain relatively good firearm shooting performance in extremely harsh environments such as deserts, tropical rainforests, and severe cold; And because of their ease of disassembly, easy cleaning and maintenance, Chen Yanlong gave this secretly formed Flying Leopard special forces equipped with these two assault rifles to use in combat to carry out tasks.

Chen Yanlong's original idea was that in addition to the Brandenburg amphibious special operations team, which had already replenished a large number of recruits, he also planned to establish nine special operations brigades and five special operations regiments, each with about 3,500 people.

The current Flying Leopard Special Forces is a special forces regiment, and the strength of each special forces group is 1,500 people.

However, this group of special forces regiments that had been parachuted into the Eastern Front early and had not been fighting; When the heavy snow stopped the fighting between the Soviet Union and Germany, they received Chen Yanlong's order to conduct a special operation to attack the Soviet ammunition depot.

It's a pity that because the snow is too fierce, they can't use helicopters or transport planes for airborne operations.

Therefore, they could only organize into a huge ski team, divided into small detachments, and went to the ammunition storage sites of the various Su armies in small detachments, preparing to launch a sneak attack.

It can be said that the first appearance of the German army's Flying Leopard special forces began at this moment.

Although they were fighting on the Eastern Front for the first time, they were not new recruits, they were formed by Chen Yanlong and Paul Hausser's elite officers and soldiers carefully selected from various SS units.

In other words, the members of these Flying Leopard special forces are all elite fighters and have rich combat experience.
