a few hours ago......

"Knock knock!"

There was a soft knock on the door of Buttermes' office, and a magnetic voice came from outside the door: "Captain Buttermes, I'm Paulus." Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info"

"Captain Paulus? Come on in. Buttermesse said as he put aside the document he was reviewing, which was quite rare for him as a workaholic, after all, every time Trode came to him, he spent most of the time talking to Trode while writing with his head down, and his tone was naturally not so kind.

Of course, this is also because Paulus is the captain of Anselm's guard, and Buttermes, who admires Anselm very much, naturally has a great deal of respect for Paulus. And for Paulus, Buttermes is also an important deputy of Anselm, so he is more polite when he speaks.

Paulus walked up to Buttermes' desk, saluted, and then asked, "I heard we have a mission, what kind of mission?" ”

Buttermes said with a bitter face: "You may not be able to accept it, but this time your mission is to pick up the 217 team that is now on a mission in the Soviet-occupied area and escort them back to the camp safely." ”

"Team 217? It's that Trood's team again, right? Unlike Buttermes's thoughts, Paulus did not immediately show much disgust, but first asked about the specific mission details, and Buttermes also conveyed him to Trood that the matter was repeated, although it was a mission behind enemy lines, but after all, it was only reconnaissance and not sabotage, so the difficulty level was not particularly high.

However, after saying this to Paulus, Buttermes finally added: "The colonel wants to take this incident as an 'opportunity', so the current 217 can be said to be in a more dangerous situation than any other mission." ”

After hearing this, Paulus's face began to become solemn, and he worked with Anselm so well, even if he did not participate in the resolution of the upper echelons, he knew what Buttermes meant by 'opportunity', and after a moment of silence, he blurted out: "If I'm not mistaken, they went with the whole team?" ”

"That's right." Buttermes nodded heavily, and said slowly, "And that's why I sent you to rescue them this time." ”

"But...... The good news is not without it. After saying the bad news, Buttermes finally changed his relaxed tone and said: "According to the information sent back from the front, it seems that the Soviet army has not yet moved, which means that the mission of the 217 team has not been fully carried out, so you still have plenty of time to rescue them." ”

Paulus frowned slightly, and let out a sigh of relief: "Although I know that I shouldn't doubt my own people, I don't think they should cut corners on the task, right?" ”

"Your suspicions are not unreasonable, in fact, I think so." Batmeth first affirmed Paulus's statement, and then continued: "So before rescuing them back, you should make sure that the mission has been completed, which is what the colonel meant. ”

"Finally, there's ...... The ......," Batmes said, pulling out a piece of paper with a rough map drawn from a drawer beside him, marked with a few symbols.

"What is this?" Anselm looked at the map that Bad Meth handed over, and all he could think of was that the map would be his next action to rely on, but to be honest, with the information recorded on this map, it was too thin to rely on.

"This is what the Colonel asked me to give to you." Buttermess said as he pointed to an area on the map that was highlighted, "Now you need to go to this location to pick up Team 217, until then you can't use radio to communicate, after that you need to make sure the mission is completed, and then protect them to return here safely." ”

"Rally point...... Paulus looked at the rally point on the map, but he couldn't see anything unusual for a long time.

"Hey...... I advise you not to read it. Buttermes sighed deeply and said: "I don't know why this map is in the hands of the colonel, and the colonel also made it clear that you only need to reach this position, and then the 217 team will take the initiative to find you, as for what is in it, I don't know." ”

"......" Paulus listened to Buttermes's words, looked at the map in his hand carefully, and after a while, nodded slightly and said: "I know, this task will be handed over to our first squad, please convey it to the colonel, let him rest assured, I will definitely bring them back safely." ”

With that, Paulus immediately left Batmes's office with the map in hand, and went to complete his pre-battle preparations as quickly as possible; Buttermes, on the other hand, sighed deeply, and after thinking back to the map for a while, he went about the work at hand......

At this time, in Anselm's office, not far from this room, the commander of the 47th Division, Anselm, was looking to the east in the distance, that is, the direction in which Trod was now fighting.

There was a hint of worry on his weather-eroded face, and in addition to worry, it was more like enjoying a wonderful drama, calm but slightly excited.

After a long moment's while, Anselm walked back to his desk, picked up a cigarette and lit it. Through the smoke that flew up, Anselm saw the flat envelope.

Anselm picked it up, one end of the envelope had been opened, and the inside of the envelope was empty. The general envelope is different in that there is no stamp on the outside of this envelope, and there is no necessary information such as the name and address of the recipient and sender, and this envelope looks like an unused envelope from the outside. However, the glue marks on the unopened seal tell that it was once contained.

"Hehe, there's nothing written outside, it's like an assassination letter...... Anselm smiled and threw the envelope back on the table, and said to himself lightly, "This is only the kid who thinks of it......"

And just behind Anselm, the inner wall of the dropped envelope was faintly exposed, and a man's name was written - Trode.
