Chapter 1712: Wooden Eyes

As early as the 30s, Norway set up meteorological stations in the remote and harsh climate of Spitsbergen, Jan Mayen and Bear Island.

As Germany swept across Europe, it soon took control of Norway, and Luftwaffe planes from Norway began to carry out meteorological reconnaissance flights over the Norwegian Sea and the Arctic Ocean.

The 5th Meteorological Group, stationed in Trondheim, flew at an altitude of 1,000 to 3,000 meters using He-111 and Ju-88 types, descending to sea level every one hour and rising to 6,000 meters before returning home, so as to collect meteorological information such as air temperature, air pressure, and wind speed at different altitudes.

The availability of these meteorological conditions is very useful for the weather forecasting of the whole of Europe, but the meteorological conditions near Greenland are still blank.

Just taking off a weather plane from Iceland to Greenland for reconnaissance is just scratching the itch. Moreover, there is a risk that weather planes will be intercepted, and it is not easy to collect data all the time.

Meteorologists must be sent to Greenland immediately!

In the present period, there are too many German citizens who are loyal to the Reich.

Germany, which is about to become the master of the world, feels a sense of pride in the heart of every German citizen, just like the Romans before them, and they are willing to sacrifice everything for the empire, including their lives.

Inside the cabin, cold air was whizzing in.

It was a German military glider that could carry a Panther 2 main battle tank when needed, and now the Giant glider's box-shaped cargo compartment measuring 11 meters long, 3.15 meters wide and 3.32 meters high is stacked with all kinds of cargo.

In the space just in front of the glider, seven Germans were wrapped in overcoats. The man at the front had a long beard, and at this time, there was ice ballast hanging on it.

"We've got out of the tractor and we'll be at our destination in twenty minutes, and we'll be Santa Claus every day." Professor Weiss said, and as soon as he opened his mouth, a cold wind poured in.

Just after receiving the task, Professor Weiss did not hesitate to get up from the warm and comfortable Berlin apartment, with a full set of meteorological observation equipment, and a few of his students, to the Berlin airport.

At the airport, after meeting up with the two soldiers who were responsible for protecting them, they got on this glider, flew for several hours, and came here.

In the glider, Professor Weiss was the oldest, his body was constantly jolting with the glider, and there were four of his students beside him, although these students were frozen like grandsons, their faces were extremely excited.

"I've wanted to come to the field for an internship for a long time, but now I finally have the opportunity, and when I go back, I have my graduation thesis." One student said.

"Alice always said that I was not a man enough, this time I went down, and when I came back from the mission, Alice would definitely look at me differently."

These students spoke quite energetically, making the cold cabin seem lively.

Looking at these people, Ault's cold eyes gradually brought human feelings.

The two soldiers who came with them, one piloting the glider in front and the other in the cabin, were from the most elite griffon special forces in order to protect them, both from the most elite griffin special forces, both had fought in the ice and snow of Finland, and had rich experience in the cold and cold regions.

"Everyone check their equipment, and when they go down, they must protect their whole body, and where it is exposed, it may be frozen." Oult said to them.

This is no joke, Greenland is quite cold, and they are going to the far north of Greenland, where the temperature is always in the minus 20 degrees.

Even if you show your nose and stay there for one night, the next day, your nose will definitely be frozen.

Hearing Ault's words, everyone got serious, put on their hats, covered the masks and scarves in front of them, and then put on their goggles.

"Attention, we're about to land." The glider pilot in front shouted loudly.

The thick body of the giant glider, with a graceful arc, floated from the sky, and continued to glide forward along the huge ice sheet of Greenland, gliding, and then, a wheel made contact with the ice cap, and was bounced again.

"Mom." One of the students screamed, his face already pale.

The rest of the people are also uncomfortable, only Oort, with a calm face, these students, to the real warriors, are still far away, but what the empire needs is their minds, not let them go to the front to fight.

After the student shouted out, he knew that he was embarrassed, so he grabbed the handrail next to him and never spoke again.

The second landing, the bounce, and it was not until the third time that the glider finally landed steadily, continued to glide on the ice sheet for hundreds of meters, and stopped.

"Students, let's get to work now!" Professor Weiss shouted, "Get our equipment out!" ”

The reason why the Giant gliders were used was because they had a large carrying capacity, and they needed all kinds of meteorological observation instruments, radios, and several months of supplies.

Meteorological observation must be continuous, which is also the advantage of ground observation stations.

Now, Professor Weiss beckoned his students to take out all the weather instruments in the glider, while on the other side, Aort had already begun to set up his tent.

Tents aren't a good place to sleep in the open, but it's the quickest way to do it.

Set up two tents to be able to camp here, and then, over the next few days, with his companions, Olt will build an ice house, just like the Eskimos.

The cold wind, like a knife, blew on everyone's body, even if they were wearing thick leather clothes, they could still feel the cold, standing on the ice sheet, looking at the white scene around them, the students who came here for the first time almost cheered.

This is a place to test men, and when you go back, you will become a man!

"Snorr." The anemometer was in place, the impeller on it was spinning rapidly, and a male student pulled out a pen and struggled to record it.

"Students, I now announce that the Muyan Polar Scientific Research Station has been officially established!" Professor Weiss said.

The code name of their meteorological team, called Wood Eye, came to Greenland, but it was full of barren land, and no one could find them.

It can even be said that within a radius of several hundred kilometers nearby, there should be no one else but them.

The tent was set up, and Oult got into it and began to fiddle with the telegram.

"Didi, Didi." Soon, the telegraph sounded.
