Qin Chuan returned to Fort Kinov on the sixth day.

Timo Werner's side once again beat all the teams in Kyiv without any surprises, with one team narrowly winning...... But it was a narrow win that made Werner and his players so excited.

Qin Chuan can understand this, if it is an easy victory, it is not exciting at all, but it is a slight victory in the end when the opponent wins, then it is a hearty win.

Therefore, until Qin Chuan and the others returned to the camp, Werner and the others were still talking about the wonderful process on the field.

Of course, Qin Chuan was not interested in listening to this, because he had already heard it countless times on the plane.

Qin Chuan noticed that there were some new faces in the troops, and then he heard Eberhard report: "Lieutenant colonel, just arrived in a batch of reinforcements!" ”

Qin Chuan said "um", just like Major General Tleskov said, Hitler expanded the scope of conscription in a large area of the country and replenished them on the Eastern Front, and of course the First Infantry Corps would also receive some reinforcements.

"Have you read their profile?" Qin Chuan asked.

"Yes, Lieutenant Colonel!" Eberhard replied: "Most of them are airborne troops who have returned from injury, except for a few maintenance personnel!" ”

This is the special care of the troops for the First Step, they know that the First Step, which has more training such as parachuting, so they are assigned to veterans and are called elite airborne troops.

"Biedman finally has his own men!" Qin Chuan said.

"Yes!" Eberhard replied, "And they seem to get along well with each other, for they have considerable admiration for Bidman's work!" ”

"Good!" Qin Chuan said: "It seems that we have something to do this winter, we have to do a series of rappelling and mountain combat training for these recruits!" ”

"Do you want the maintenance soldiers?" Eberhard asked.

"Of course!" Qin Chuan replied: "Otherwise, what if we need maintenance personnel on the front line?!" ”

"Yes, Lieutenant Colonel!"

The intense training began the day after Qin Chuan's return, after all, the recruits still have a lot to learn, even those who are called elite airborne troops...... Because even they were stunned as they watched the instructors descend from the helicopter one by one quickly and neatly.

"God!" Someone also exclaimed: "We now know how stupid it is to jump down with a parachute on your back!" ”

This is true, compared with parachuting, the advantages of parachuting are obvious, it is safe, fast, and can directly reach the destination and immediately form combat effectiveness, even if the helicopter is very fragile and cannot directly descend to the target area, it is better than being blown by the wind more than ten kilometers away at every turn.

However, Qin Chuan didn't stay long in the training, and when the training entered the third day, Colonel Slane made a phone call.

"Lieutenant Colonel, we have a new mission!" Colonel Slain said, "Pack your bags, and I'll pick you up at two o'clock in the afternoon!" ”

This made Qin Chuan a little surprised, this mission came as soon as it was said and it seemed that it was still Colonel Slain and Qin Chuan.

The mystery wasn't understood until the time I got on the plane.

"They're going to set up a line of defense along the Maginot Line!" Colonel Slein said: "It's a good idea, because there is a large area of mountainous terrain that is very suitable for a defensive line...... Considering that we have built the Gabez Line and have used helicopters to defeat the Soviets in the Caucasus, they need us to serve as military advisers for a while! ”

As soon as he heard this, Qin Chuan understood that this was not a coincidence, but an arrangement by Major General Treskov. It is likely that the invitation to Colonel Slane was just a cover for Qin Chuan.

Of course, this excuse can be said to be seamless, and it can even be said that it is not an excuse, because the Maginot Line really needs guidance on both fronts.

Qin Chuan arrived at the Maginot Line at seven o'clock in the morning of the next day, during which time he only stopped in Berlin to refuel.

The journey of more than ten hours made Qin Chuan feel a little sore back, and he couldn't wait to get out of the cabin after arriving at his destination.

A major with two assistants came up to meet him in the wind of the propellers.

"You must be Colonel Slein and Lieutenant Colonel Flick from the First Steps!" The young major stood up in front of them and saluted, then shook hands with each of them and introduced himself: "I am Finn, the staff officer of General Lu Manlin, and I have been ordered to come to receive you!" ”

With that, Finn cleverly moved out of the way and beckoned two jeeps to come up.

"So......" Colonel Slain said, after getting into the car, looking at the high ground in the distance, "is this the Maginot Line?" ”

"Yes, Colonel!" Finn replied.

"But why don't I see anything?" Colonel Slain asked, "Except for a few bunkers!" ”

Major Finn couldn't help but laugh: "Colonel, most of its fortifications are underground, and ...... Strictly speaking, the Maginot Line is not a line of defense! ”

"Uh-huh!" Colonel Slain expressed his interest in continuing to listen.

"Its main fortifications are 6 to 8 kilometers deep!" Major Finn replied, "That is to say, six to eight kilometers east from the place we see now, all of them can be called the Maginot Line!" ”

Hearing this, Colonel Slane couldn't help but look at Qin Chuan, who was sitting beside him, and Qin Chuan saw surprise in his eyes.

"And ......," Major Fin continued, "after 8 kilometres there is a 4 to 14 kilometre refuge zone, which is full of barbed wire, barricades, mines, ......"

"God!" Colonel Slane said, "That means this thing is at least 10 kilometers deep!" ”

"Yes, Colonel!" Finn replied: "Actually, if you add the security zone, you will be very difficult to find a part that is only 10 kilometers deep. But the safe strip doesn't help us much, does it? It will also become an obstacle to our logistics and transportation! ”

Qin Chuan understood what Major Fein meant by this, which was caused by the fact that the Maginot Line was facing Germany.

But Qin Chuan denied Major Finn's claim.

"No, Major!" Qin Chuan replied: "The support zone can guarantee that we will not be attacked behind us, such as the enemy's airborne troops...... I hope you didn't dismantle the barricades or detonate the mines in these areas! ”

Major Finn was stunned for a moment, then replied, "You're right, Lieutenant Colonel. But rest assured, there are too many mines, barricades and barbed wire to be dismantled or detonated! ”

"Good!" Qin Chuan replied, and then shifted his gaze to the high ground outside the window.

Qin Chuan suddenly had an impulse, he wanted to see the British, American and even French soldiers who "fought France...... What it would be like to see an impregnable line of defense in front of them.
