Chapter 20: The Goal Finally Appears?

In war, many times in order to achieve victory, the top brass thinks that the necessary sacrifice is always worth it, and as long as it is not too important person, they will think that there is no one who cannot be given up or sacrificed.

Of course, it is always the little people who are abandoned by the higher-ups, whether it is Richie or Ewald. Feng. Kleist, the squad led by the two captains together is only 350 people, for the German high-level who dare to take 160,000 people to be shelled, especially in the current war, where tens of thousands of people may be sacrificed in a single attack, and the team of only 350 people in total will be abandoned, and those who have been accustomed to choosing for whom to be sacrificed or not will not have any anxiety or guilt in their hearts.

A new situation has emerged, not only are there planes in the air to conduct reconnaissance, but there are also cavalry and infantry on the ground to pull the net to explore, which seems to be so difficult.

"Sir, shall we move the place of concealment?"

"According to the plan, the ruins that were blown up in the past!"

There were originally eleven people in their group, including Richie, but one person disappeared when they infiltrated, and although they hadn't taken refuge in the bombed-out building before, it didn't mean that they hadn't made any preparations.

A small passage was moved out of the building, which could reach the narrow space inside, the reason why they didn't hide in it just now was relatively simple, it was very hot in the north of France in June this year, and the narrow space of the ruins was not only hot and stuffy, it may not be a big problem to hide for a while, but it was definitely a problem to hide in for a whole day.

After leaving the necessary observers, the team entered one by one through the small passage that had been specially cleared, and Li Qi was the last to move in. When he entered, he also needed to make the necessary camouflage for the small passage, which was nothing more than to make the small passage look more chaotic and not be seen as artificially moved.

Almost as Richie moved in and stopped, a sudden burst of gunfire rang out from the roaring cannon, and some shouts that were not really heard were heard from afar.

The gunfire came from a place southwest of the abandoned manor, first with a single sound, and after a brief pause, the gunfire began to become very frequent.

In the extremely dim vision, not only did Li Qi's breathing sound become a little heavy, but in fact, everyone's breathing sound became heavier. No doubt they were nervous by the sudden sound of gunfire.

There was another group of people who were even more nervous than Litchie and the others, and that was Ewald, who numbered almost twenty people. Feng. Kleist's group.

Ewald. Feng. Kleist and others, they also found out from the sudden appearance of the aircraft group and those French cavalry and infantry that things were not simple. As they tried their best to find a place to hide before the French cavalry and infantry reached their side, almost everyone was startled by the sudden sound of gunfire.

"It's the gunfire of the French M1886 Lebour rifle!" Wa~er~ter. Moder had a hesitant look on his face.

Didn't wait for Ewald. Feng. Kleist almost wondered if he had been discovered, when several German Gew.98 shots rang out one after another, which made him stunned again.

The Gew.98 is an improved version of the Mauser rifle, the full name is the Gewehr 1898 infantry weapon, and its first appearance was the Eight-Nation Alliance's attack on the "I Daqing".

Only a few of the members of Operation Shenhel are equipped with the Gew.98, and in addition to the Snipers, they are basically equipped with a submachine gun. If the members of Operation Shenhel were discovered, there would be no reason that there would have been only the sound of Gew.98 shooting, and there would have been the sound of submachine guns, but there was none.

The submachine gun they were equipped with was an unshaped model, a trial model that had been urgently transferred for this mission. In fact, it would not be finalized until 1917, and it would be named the Mp18 submachine gun, a weapon used by the German army in the late World War I to try to change the situation of the war, and the world's first truly practical submachine gun, whose design was borrowed from many later submachine guns.

In the fierce gunfire, the "buzzing" sound of airplanes was also added, and soon the French Haggers machine guns and the British Vickers machine guns joined in the gunfire performance, but the sound of machine guns came from airplanes.

By 1916, the planes were not purely for reconnaissance, and the pilots of the two sides would greet each other and not attack each other, and with a German pilot picking up an Imperial M91 revolver and firing it, the "love for each other" of the pilots was long gone.

Now both sides are working hard to load the aircraft with weapons, and the most common aircraft style is still the two-seat model, one is the pilot who mainly pilots the aircraft, the other is the crew operating the machine gun in the rear seat, and the aircraft model (fighter) with a machine gun in the nose is not much.

The intense gunfire was ended by the sound of heavy machine-gun fire, and a German storm commando group, hiding in a straw bush from an unknown source, lost three men in the firefight, and two of them finally surrendered.

For Litchie and Ewald. Feng. The most important thing for the two Kleist forces is that it is not the members of Operation Shenhel who have exchanged fire, but it is also a misfortune that the storm commando team that does not know where it came from is discovered, and the Entente will definitely strengthen the search in the future.

In fact, the number of British and French troops involved in the search really increased, and there were occasional exchanges of fire in the area, so you can imagine how often the Germans were engaged in the Storm Commandos. It's just that I don't know if it's fate or abandonment, and I don't hear the sound of a submachine gun in any of the gunfire.

[Did the other groups succeed in infiltrating?] 】

Similar questions arose at the same time as Richie and Ewald. Feng. Kleist in the hearts of the members of these two teams. Luckily for them, the German Storm Troopers were lurking in too many places, resulting in only a handful of searchers approaching the two teams from start to finish, and they were never spotted.

It was until about three o'clock in the afternoon, and there were only planes in the area from time to time, and there were searchers on land, but the number and frequency of their appearance were not much.

After being stuffy for three or four hours, Li Qi and the others, who were almost dizzy, went out one by one under the reminder of the observer, and everyone took a big gulp of fresh air after going out.

"Sir, I'm ......" Amberg. Goethe's face stopped.

It's not just Amberg. Goethe, and the rest of the group had expressions on their faces that they wanted to say something.

Li Qi knew what they were thinking, and although his face was a little pale, he tried to smile as much as he could: "We have a perfect plan for lurking, and we need to have more confidence in our comrades. We weren't discovered, so they just weren't discovered, just because they didn't infiltrate. ”

[Although I knew that Britain and France~ would conduct a high-intensity investigation before those generals came, it was obvious that the team members were nervous by the frequent gunshots. In addition, they began to suspect that other groups might not be present in the presence, which was detrimental to the operation! 】

As a leader, the haze in the heart of Li Qi, who has a calm face, is probably the most serious, but he needs to show a confident posture.

"Sir, the convoy, a lot of convoys!" Andreas in charge of the lookout observation. Heisenberg ran over panting. His face was both happy and apprehensive, and he said very quickly: "It must be the target person's convoy, there must be nothing wrong!" ”
