Chapter 630: Encounter with the Gestapo
London, the European Theater Command of the Imperial Chinese Divine Forces. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
After Li Weijun received the will of the imperial court, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.
He was not dealt with by military law, but only atoned for his crimes, and he knew that countless ministers must impeach him, and it must be Li Weiguo's extrajudicial mercy.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Li Weijun bowed to the north and thanked Li Weiguo for the grace he had given him.
Returning to his chair and picking up the second telegram on his desk, Li Weijun immediately frowned.
It's about the possibility of a night attack by the German Imperial Air Force on the Walvis Bay area, and it's tonight.
If it was just the speculation of other military personnel, Li Weijun would not believe it at all without any evidence to prove it, but it was His Majesty the Emperor Li Weiguo who expressed concern about this matter, and it was deeply worried, which made it difficult for Li Weijun to do it.
"Your Majesty has always been wise and decisive, and every prediction is inseparable, but this time, because there is no key evidence to support it, it is impossible to find out whether such a large group of German bombers is really in the vicinity of Walvis Bay, but Your Majesty still expresses deep concern, in this case, what should I do?"
Li Weijun stood up and walked back and forth, looking at the map of Africa from time to time.
After the World War, the German Empire's colonies expanded considerably, but most of them were in Africa. It includes Namibia, which is in southern Africa, next to the South African colony of the Chinese Empire, part of the Congo colony in Central Africa that was taken over from the Netherlands and Belgium, and the colony in southwest Africa. There was also the Libyan colony in North Africa, which was taken over from France.
In the vicinity of these colonies, the military forces of the Chinese Empire have always been monitored, and so far, not a single German base has been found to have a large bomber group, not even an airstrip.
Li Weijun's gaze swept back and forth on the map, and for a time he stayed in the vast desert area of Libya, but soon he shook his head, this kind of great desert was completely impossible, and he directly ignored it.
It is not that Li Weijun was stupid and could not have imagined that the German army was secretly building a base in the desert, in fact, looking at the whole world, no military strategist would think that it was possible to build a base in the uninhabited Sahara Desert, and history has also proved that until the 21st century, no country was willing to build a base in the Sahara Desert.
So it's not that Li Weijun is too stupid, but that Hitler, who came up with this ghost idea, is too shrewd, because Hitler has been planning this day for many years.
I really couldn't think of it, but Li Weiguo's concern about this matter affected Li Weijun's judgment, so he finally gave an order to the supreme commander in the Walvis Bay area, Army Lieutenant General Li Yuanhong.
"Tonight, the Walvis Bay area is afraid of a retaliatory sneak attack by the German army, so I ordered your department to take strict precautions, pay special attention to the air direction, and strengthen night air defense preparations."
When Li Yuanhong received this order, he did not dare to slack off and quickly made arrangements.
After the day's military provocations, Lin Yongsheng had successfully provoked a military conflict between China and Germany, so at this moment the entire Roberts Port has been in a state of first-class combat readiness, and all officers and soldiers are waiting for it.
When Li Yuanhong's order was issued, the Chinese Imperial Shence Army, Navy and Army in Roberts Harbor once again strengthened their vigilance. Under the direct order of Li Yuanhong, the army sent a large number of outpost troops to the entire Walvis Bay area to guard against the enemy's sneak attack from land.
Although it is nighttime and the Navy's surface ships are not suitable for deployment, all anti-submarine destroyers are on high alert, and the sonar system is constantly turned on to closely reconnoiter the situation in the nearby waters. The submarine unit left the port and remained latent in the surrounding waters, the patrol ships and gunboats were at full speed, the scope of vigilance training was expanded, and the bright searchlights did not let go of any suspicious targets.
At the airfield in Port Roberts, the pilots of the Air Force have no task, and their biggest task is to sleep, stay energized, and ready to fight during the day.
Li Yuanhong was transferred from the Japanese theater and recommended by King Xin, during the Chinese Empire's war against Japan, Li Yuanhong and the officers and soldiers of the 16th Town under his command performed bravely and fought completely, and were rewarded many times by the Chinese Emperor Li Weiguo and the Ministry of War.
This time, the Chinese Empire made a move against German Southwest Africa, and the two most potential princes of the Chinese Empire, King Nioh and King Xin, both recommended candidates, King Nioh recommended Wu Peifu, King Xin recommended Li Yuanhong, and finally Li Weiguo made a decision to give Li Yuanhong the position of commander of the Walvis Bay Theater.
In Li Weiguo's opinion, Wu Peifu's strength is much stronger than Li Yuanhong, and it is precisely because of this that he chose the relatively weak Li Yuanhong to balance the strength between King Nioh and King Xin.
"My lord, what do you call your subordinates to order?"
Colonel Feng Guozhang came to the office and saluted Li Yuanhong.
Li Yuanhong said directly: "Feng Guozhang, I want you to take your special operations team, cross the Bomi River, and reconnoiter the situation on the other side." ”
Feng Guozhang asked, "My lord, didn't you say that we would cross the Bomi River and launch an attack after the official declaration of war?" Are we going to go on an all-out offensive tonight? ”
Li Yuanhong shook his head and said, "The above means that I am worried that the German army will attack us tonight!" But I have repeatedly studied the surrounding area, the Germans only have airfields in two places, Monrovia and Tubmanburg, Monrovia is on the seashore, I will let Lin Yongsheng send the navy to keep an eye on it, and Tubmanburg is inland, so let you go and see! ”
"Yes! Mission completion guaranteed! ”
Feng Guozhang didn't ask any more questions, as a special forces commander, he had a very accurate grasp of the seriousness of the situation. If it's just an ordinary concern, all you need to do is send a few scouts across the river to reconnoitre. But Li Yuanhong obviously gave Feng Guozhang an order to let him personally lead the team, so the seriousness of the problem is self-evident.
Feng Guozhang's personal dispatch is not just as easy as simple reconnaissance, it may be that the special operations team is required to go deep behind enemy lines and discover more information.
Li Yuanhong was afraid that Feng Guozhang would not understand, so he emphasized again: "Shangfeng attaches great importance to this matter, and it is said that His Majesty the Emperor has personally inquired about it and expressed concern about possible air raids!" ”
Even His Majesty the Emperor expressed concern, which made Feng Guozhang nervous.
"Don't worry, my lord, I promise to complete the task! However, since it is a German air raid, then please order the whole city to ban the lights after we leave, if there is a black light below, even if the German planes really come to sneak attack, they will not be able to see it! ”
This reminded Li Yuanhong, and he was immediately overjoyed.
"Your reminder was very timely, I almost forgot about the big thing, no matter what, I will give you a credit."
"Thank you, sir!"
"Go ahead! Be careful! ”
"Yes!"
Feng Guozhang set off happily, and Li Yuanhong immediately ordered all the lights in the entire Walvis Bay area to be controlled, and no one was allowed to turn on the lights or light the lights for any reason and in any form.
As a result, the entire Walvis Bay area was instantly plunged into darkness and drowned in the night.
Of course, even if there is light control, Li Yuanhong does not dare to be careless.
The only anti-aircraft artillery regiment was deployed in place, and anti-aircraft guns were on constant alert.
Feng Guozhang personally led the special operations team to set off, and then divided into three squadrons, which quietly dived through the Bomi River from different directions to reach the German colony on the opposite bank.
The three squadrons were divided into three routes, penetrating south, east, and north respectively, crossing the German patrol area, going as deep as possible to detect the German conspiracy.
Feng Guozhang personally led a squadron to search and advance north along the Big Horn Mountain, encountering many German patrols along the way.
"The German patrols have been significantly strengthened!"
"There must be a conspiracy!"
"Not necessarily, if there is a war during the day, it makes sense to step up patrols at night!"
Feng Guozhang whispered to several officers, did not alarm the enemy, took advantage of the gap in the patrol to cross the road, reached the other side and continued to advance.
Turning around, the distance behind enemy lines was already very long, but nothing out of the ordinary was found.
The Germans did not see an airfield where they could take off and land large-scale bombers, except for the constant transfer of troops to the border, that is, to the line of the Big Cape Mountain and the Bomi River.
Did Shangfeng misjudge?
Feng Guozhang can't be blamed for suspecting that in this era, there is no such example of bomber night bombing, and the bombers of this era are not the same as the bombers of later generations, they are still primitive and simple biplane models, with limited load and range, and lack radar, navigation, night vision and other systems, so it is quite unreliable to carry out bombing missions at night.
But because of this, everyone in the world ignored it, only Hitler thought of it, although it cost him enormous energy and costs.
"Report to the captain, there's something strange on the other side of the woods!"
As soon as he heard something strange, Feng Guozhang instantly came to his senses.
That's right, he's just waiting for the so-called strange thing, because that means it's probably what he's trying to know about.
"What are these German soldiers doing with so many gasoline drums and braziers in the middle of the night?"
Quietly lurking nearby, the scene in front of him made Feng Guozhang and other special combat team members a little confused.
"Captain, look at these German soldiers, their clothes and equipment are different from other German soldiers!"
The sudden discovery reminded Feng Guozhang again.
"They seem to have Buddhist symbols on their armbands?"
"Isn't it, these German dogs also believe in our Chinese Buddhism?"
"At first glance a Buddhist symbol? But it seems to be different, the angle is different! ”
Feng Guozhang narrowed his eyes slightly, and said softly: "It's the Gestapo!" ”
The team members around them were even more incomprehensible, and someone whispered: "Captain, isn't the Gestapo a spy who collects intelligence?" But if you look at their weapons and equipment, they seem to be submachine guns, they are wearing big leather boots, and the equipment on their bodies is better than that of ordinary German troops, and they are even about to catch up with the configuration of our special combat team. ”
Feng Guozhang nodded and said, "Let the soldiers be careful and prepare for battle!" This is the special forces of the Gestapo! ”
After arriving in the Walvis Bay area, Feng Guozhang learned from the intelligence department that the German army had also sent a special force, that is, a secret special forces under the Gestapo.
In addition to the Chinese Empire's Shence Army, which had the world's first special forces, the second country to establish special forces was the German Empire, and the Gestapo founded by Hitler was in charge.
It can be said that the special forces of the Chinese Imperial Shence Army were invincible on the battlefield and created countless myths during the world war, which has long been a topic of concern for countries around the world, and eventually led to the exposure of special forces.
But countries do not know about special forces, and even if they are formed, they are in name only, because they lack systematic and effective training methods.
Only the German Empire was different, Hitler had a complete training method, which forced the German Imperial military to cede the right to form special forces to Hitler's Gestapo.
Feng Guozhang had never seen the Gestapo before, so after determining that the other party was the special forces to which the Gestapo belonged, he immediately issued a combat order and reminded his special combat team members to be more careful.
"Attention everyone! In front of you are no longer ordinary German troops who are vulnerable, but German special forces who have undergone special training like you! ”
Feng Guozhang made a gesture to remind everyone. It's okay not to remind them, but after the reminder, all the special combat team members made gestures and secret words one after another, expressing their disbelief and wanting to rush out to fight with the German special forces.
"These bunnies!"
Feng Guozhang suddenly rolled his eyes, speechless, and then glared fiercely and made gestures.
"You are not allowed to be exposed without my order, otherwise military law will be engaged!"
Feng Guozhang had to add a sentence of military law, he must suppress his subordinates, otherwise they will all "show dissatisfaction", and it will be a big deal to despise the enemy on the battlefield.
"Captain, look at the braziers they're all on fire! It seems like getting in the car is leaving! Let's do it! ”
The subordinate beside him whispered.
Feng Guozhang shook his head, he was very calm and knew what he was here for.
In an instant, hundreds of braziers in front of them were lit, illuminating the surrounding lights.
Seeing that the Gestapo got into the car and left, leaving a few Gestapo guards.
Feng Guozhang then ordered the second and third teams to continue to follow the Gestapo, while the remaining team formed a battle formation to hunt down the two guarded Gestapo.
"Remember, fight silently, it's better to catch one alive!"
Feng Guozhang gave an order, and a small team of special combat team members instantly became excited, took out their housekeeping skills, and quietly touched the two German Gestapo.
Burst!
Boom!
The silent pistol opened fire at close range, and a German Gestapo was instantly shot and fell.
Another Gestapo, who was concentrating on turning the barbecue grill, was startled when he saw that his companion had been killed, and he quickly drew his gun and prepared to fire at the enemy in front of him, but he was still a beat slow and was knocked unconscious by the butt of the enemy coming up behind him.
By the time this Gestapo woke up, he had already been dragged into the shadows.
When he looked at the fire in horror, he found two Chinese Imperial soldiers changing into their Gestapo uniforms and continuing to stand guard and talk.
Even in German?
This acting is really drunk dog!
The stunned Gestapo was awakened by a slap in the face, and then the interrogation began.
"Your name! Troops! Outfit! ”
What the? Don't say?
Bang bang bang...... A fat beating!
"What are you doing with so many braziers at night?"
What the? Don't say it?
Bang bang bang...... Another fat beating!
