274 corpses

In the rolling sand, a German armored vehicle was moving, looking aimless, alone in the sand dunes. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

The commander leaned against the iron plate of the already hot SdKfz251 armored car, squinting at the steaming air on the sand dunes in the distance.

This is an armored reconnaissance vehicle on the periphery of the Libyan oil fields, which is responsible for patrol reconnaissance work. The subordinate unit was the Waffen-SS of the Air Force.

Of course, this can be regarded as the Führer's private armies, since they do not have a regular Wehrmacht...... Unlike the Waffen-SS combat units, which were famous on the battlefield, they were only set up specifically for the oil fields.

They have a somewhat laughable name - the Waffen-SS Libyan Oil Field Armed Support Division.

Although it is a "division" level unit and also has its own division headquarters and logistical support units, the establishment of this infantry division is very small, and it is only the size of a semi-regular infantry regiment.

One of the infantry regiments is a real combat unit, and the others are some technical units and support units.

The anti-aircraft artillery units stationed near the oil fields, as well as the searchlight units and the engineer units, were all assigned to the command of this division, but they were all busy with their own work on weekdays, and there was a great sense that they would not get along with each other.

This SdKfz251 armored car has been fundamentally different from similar armored vehicles in history, with a more convenient vertical compartment shape, and the ballistic performance is much lower.

However, the benefit in exchange is a massive increase in production. Such armored vehicles were designated SdKfz251/2Ausf.N, and most of the produced ones were equipped with second-line troops and logistics support units.

The armored car in front of me, like the No. 3 tank, has been improved for desert use. On the sides of the hull were welded some of the same miscellaneous compartments as the No. 3 Desert tank, which contained fresh water and excess fuel, as well as some miscellaneous items and the like.

These things act as side protection, and can be used as protective steel plates when removing debris, ensuring that the vertical body still has enough bulletproof ability.

"Stop!" When the SdKfz 251 armored car, which was kicking up smoke and dust, drove into a mountain col, the commander gave the order to stop.

The soldiers in the car jumped down, stood casually next to the armored car with rifles on their backs, took out the parts under their crotch, and began to solve physiological problems.

"There's no one here, no one is going to come to this kind of place, and we're still on patrol every day, which is a waste of time." A soldier shuddered twice and said to his commander beside him.

"Regulations are regulations, and our task is to ensure the absolute safety of the oil field, do you understand what absolute is?" The commander and Dongyang shuddered twice, fastened his pants, and subconsciously glanced to the other side.

As a result, at this subconscious glance, he saw something that made him very suspicious - on a distant sand dune, an unclear thing, was sharply reflecting a dazzling light!

"What's that?" The commander frowned and subconsciously asked. And the two soldiers beside him also saw the dazzling suspicious objects that were reflecting.

"It's kind of like glass...... How can there be glass here? As they spoke, the SS soldiers had already taken off the Mauser 98K rifle behind them and held it in their hands.

"Spread out! Bend down! "This commander is a veteran of the French campaign, and it turns out that he is subordinate to Adolf? Ordinary soldiers of Hitler's Guard Banner Corps were now transferred here and promoted to commander.

Having combat experience, he immediately opened his mouth to alert his men, and he himself bent down and drew the pistol at his waist.

"Don't turn off the engine! A few of you are in the car, covering us with machine guns! The commander turned back to the soldiers in the armored car and ordered.

And with this order, the soldiers on the SdKfz251 armored car, already behind the machine-gun shield, pulled the bolt and made a crunching sound.

The machine-gun bullets had already been loaded into the chambers, and the two SS soldiers had already begun to make a detour to the suspicious place.

Even if there were only a few soldiers, the tactical execution, because there were veterans who had fought in the war, this squad still carried out the tactical arrangements in a decent manner.

Soon, the squad approached the glowing object, and then the two infantrymen had already rushed forward - they had made sure that there were no suspicious enemies around, so they moved much faster.

"Sir! You've got to come and see this! I think we're in trouble! The man who rushed to the front stopped his steps halfway and shouted loudly to his commander without looking back.

The commander heard the shout and sped up his pace, but he soon saw that there was actually something else next to the glowing object.

Because of the similarity of colors, he thought that these were just undulating edges and corners stacked on top of the sand at a distance, but when he got closer, he could see that these were artificially made......

"My God!" He also stopped his progress not far from these things, for he saw most of the field tents buried in the sand.

Some tents have only a spire left, while others have collapsed and are buried in the sand. It was a huge cemetery, with corpses wrapped in tents and half covered by yellow sand.

The reflective thing is the arm of a dehydrated corpse, the glass wrapped around the watch.

The corpses were dressed in expedition clothing, some of them had binoculars around their necks, and most of them were armed, which was obviously not the equipment of an expedition.

"Oh my God! They are lost...... I died here. Everyone's kettle is empty, they're stuck here and dying. A German soldier came up and reported to the commander, who was silent.

Behind him, several soldiers had dragged the buried tent out of the sand, from which the bodies and other things had been turned out.

There are military maps and all sorts of small devices, as well as small generators, and radio equipment.

"Hell! I don't think they're British! "After examining the two bodies, the commander realized that the matter was very serious.

The equipment and weapons of these people, and even the style of clothing habits, were not British. There's no doubt that the devices are all in English, but they don't look like British no matter how you look at them!

"Immediately warn the oil field! Whoever it is, they're looking for our oil fields, there's nothing wrong with that! The commander looked at the dried corpses under his feet, which had been dehydrated fifty percent, retched disgustingly, and shouted.

"Call more people! Ship these all back! What about radio? Radio-contact the Oilfield Garrison Command! Fast! He commanded as he turned his back.

Running back to the armor and grabbing the microphone on the radio, the commander said to the base that had been contacted: "I found something extraordinary!" Some dead corpses, some communications equipment......"

"What? You make it clear! "On the other side of the radio, the officer on duty apparently felt that he had heard some terrible news.

"I found some bodies near the oil field, no matter where they came from, one thing is for sure, they came to find the location of the oil field!" The commander said to his boss in a depressed voice.

"Report your location! Don't leave! I'll arrange for someone to pick you up! After an interval of about two seconds, the officer on duty spoke quickly.

After the officer on duty put down the receiver, he turned around and called the base commander's duty room, and soon the resting soldiers ran out of the barracks and began to line up on the playground.

"One company with a car emergency gathering! Get on board, grab your weapons and fresh water, and head southeast! A German officer, already aware of the situation, stood on the playground and ordered loudly.

Within ten minutes, five SdKfz 251 armored vehicles covered 10 trucks in front and behind, and in this way drove out of the German garrison base near the oil field.

……

"Your Excellency, this is the latest information from the Libyan oil fields...... The matter is very urgent. On the front line, Lieutenant General Alfred, who had just walked out of Rommel's headquarters, hurried back again.

He gave a telegram to Rommel, who opened the telegram and looked at it, his eyes widened, and he clenched the telegram: "Report to the top!" Immediately! We can't afford that! Report everything that happens here to the Supreme Command immediately! Fast! ”

Rommel stood up anxiously and walked up to Lieutenant General Alfred: "The stakes are high, you personally go back to the oil field and organize the defense there!" There can't be a little mess! Do you understand? ”

"Got it! I'm going to the airport! I'll fly back, so don't worry! Your Excellency, General! Lieutenant General Alfred nodded, turned and walked out.

A few minutes later, a telegram flew across the Mediterranean, over Italy, and all the way to Berlin, the capital of Germany, in the distance.

A radio transceiver of the High Command was translating the contents of the message in the most advanced telegraph code, and then he was so frightened that he picked up some words and rushed out of his office.

It didn't take long for Bauman to knock on the door of Führer Hitler's office with a message: "Führer! Urgent message! ”

Li Le raised his head from the pile of papers and commanded, "Come in, Bowman...... What's the urgency? ”

"Bodies with no identity have appeared near the Libyan oil fields, and someone is fighting the idea of the Libyan oil fields!" As soon as Bowman entered the door, he opened his mouth to report that he had forgotten to shout even the slogan of the victorious Führer.
