"Call the battalion headquarters, we need reinforcements. The size of this partisan detachment of the Russians will not be too small. Otherwise, they would not have wiped out the entire convoy in a short period of time. The captain officer ordered.

They were part of the reconnaissance battalion of the 3rd Infantry Division of the 27th Army of the German Army. This captain officer was none other than the commander of the 2nd Company of the battalion, named Franz. When the Russian partisans were attacking the convoy, he happened to lead people to patrol not far from here. However, immediately after receiving the order for reinforcements, he arrived. But I didn't expect it to be too late.

"Yes, sir!" The signal corps immediately contacted the battalion headquarters and asked for reinforcements.

Soon, the communications corps reported to Captain Franz.

"Sir, the battalion headquarters has agreed to reinforce us, and the rest of our company's troops are on their way. In addition, the 3rd Company will also arrive and is expected to arrive tomorrow afternoon. In addition to this, a squad of the special forces of the group army will also arrive tomorrow. The communications soldier said.

"Special forces to which the army group belongs? Will they come too? Captain Franz thought it was a little incredible.

You must know that the special forces to which the group army belongs are the most elite units of the entire group army. The number of people is not large, only more than 300 people. But the commander turned out to be a colonel. The members of these special forces were selected from among the scouts of their subordinate departments. Equipped with the best weapons and the most rigorous training, they are truly kings of the army.

It's just that the area where the special forces operate is often the battlefield behind enemy lines. They spy on the enemy's intelligence, attack the enemy's headquarters and important strongholds, or communication nodes, etc., and effectively support the frontal battlefield.

In the past, the guerrillas who surrounded and suppressed the Russians were all in charge of the reconnaissance troops. Now, there are actually special forces involved. It can be seen from this that the German top brass was already very dissatisfied with these increasingly active partisans. Beginning to make up my mind to take them out with a strong force.

Captain Franz had also signed up for the Special Forces, but unfortunately was not selected. So, now I still stay in the reconnaissance unit. But he was able to be the commander of the reconnaissance company, and he was quite satisfied with himself. I don't think I'll be worse than those special forces.

The next day, other German reinforcements arrived. At the same time, a squad of special forces arrived. The special forces of this squad are only about twenty people. But the way they arrived at the battlefield was the envy of the other scouts. Because they came by helicopter.

This was the first helicopter officially equipped by the German Army, codenamed Chill Wind. Each helicopter can carry five soldiers in addition to the pilot and co-pilot. In addition, in addition to a 12.7 mm heavy machine gun in the front, the helicopter is also equipped with rocket launchers on both sides. If the hatch is opened, a 7.62mm heavy machine gun mounted there can also be used to pour fire into the ground. It can be said that the firepower is very strong. At the bottom of the helicopter and in key parts such as fuel tanks, steel plates are also installed to resist machine gun fire, further improving survivability.

Of course, even so, these helicopters have been damaged a lot since they entered service. Except for a small number that were destroyed by ground fire on the battlefield, many were destroyed due to mechanical problems.

Because the helicopter flight altitude is too low, in the event of an accident, the crew on it often has absolutely no way to survive. This makes every flight of the helicopter crew risking their lives. But even so, helicopters have become the favorite means of transport for special forces. They were very pleased with the fast, covert way of penetrating.

A major officer stepped down from the helicopter, and Captain Franz and Captain Adam, the commander of the 3rd Company, hurriedly greeted him.

"Sir, the commander of the 27th Company of the 2nd Infantry Division Reconnaissance Battalion, Franz (Adam, the commander of the 3rd Company), reports to you!" Captain Franz and Captain Adam salute.

The major officer returned the salute: "My name is Schultz, and then you will obey my command." ”

Although Captain Franz and Captain Adam were a little dissatisfied with the arrogant attitude of the other party, they still obeyed each other's orders. Because this is an order given to them by their superiors, asking them to fully cooperate with the special forces and encircle and suppress the Russian guerrillas.

"Yes, sir!" Both Captain Franz and Captain Adam replied.

"Did you find out anything now?" Major Schultz asked.

"Sir, those guerrillas are supposed to be hiding deep in the forest. It's just that this forest is too big, thousands of square kilometers. It's very difficult to find them. Especially now that the weather is still so bad. Captain Franz said.

Major Schultz nodded, on the plains of Eastern Europe, densely forested. It was by establishing a stronghold in the forest that the partisans were able to escape the encirclement of the Germans. After attacking the German supply lines, they fled into the forest. It was undoubtedly very difficult to play hide-and-seek in the forest with the guerrillas in the cold winter. This also added a lot of trouble to the encirclement and suppression of the guerrillas by the German army.

However, even if it is troublesome, these guerrillas must be eliminated. Otherwise, they will be like bloodsuckers, destroying the living forces of Germany bit by bit. That would be very disadvantageous for Germany in this war.

"The size of this guerrilla force is at least more than 100 people, or even about 200 people. They are not very strong in combat, and if we are confronted head-on, we can easily take them out. However, the most troublesome thing right now is that it's hard to find them. Captain Adam also said.

Major Schultz's gaze fell on the map.

"Is this village the only one near the forest?" Major Schultz asked.

"Yes, sir. This is the only village near the forest, and the rest of the villages are far from the forest. Captain Franz said.

"Very well, then we'll go to that village. I'm sure we'll be able to get the clues we want. Major Schultz said.

As the closest village to the forest, there is no doubt that the village must have been connected to the guerrillas in the forest. However, because there is no definite evidence, the Germans have never attacked this village.

However, now the German top brass was determined to get rid of these partisans. Then, some of the previous concerns are completely unconcerned. In order to eliminate those guerrillas, it seems acceptable to cause more casualties.

Captain Franz and Captain Adam understood very well what Major Schultz meant. It's just that none of them objected.
