Chapter 487: Rescue (Medium)
The Soviet Union itself was a fanatical totalitarian state, and those guards were Stalin's minions, and the direct commandos were opposed not only by a few Soviet guards, but also by a considerable number of Soviet troops. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
In such a situation, it is not so much to fight, but to die! However, it is precisely this that makes the plan possible.
In order to ensure the success of the assault, German direct flight commandos and other assistants built part of the mock-up models of the two prisons at an astonishing speed, based on old drawings and with reference to the latest information provided by reconnaissance photographs.
Its location, watchtower, and tower size are exactly the same as those of the two prisons, and there are even many windows! It was here that the German direct flight commandos, which were about to go on an expedition, under the leadership of Mascu, repeatedly carried out the final pre-war exercises.
Musku was an Austrian who came from a military family. As a result of the defeat in World War I, Austria's economy collapsed, prices skyrocketed, and people lived in hardship, and Masco's family, who were middle-class, were not immune.
Later, the family recalled that Mascu had never eaten real butter in those hard days, and Mascu himself had complained to his father that life was too hard, and his father told him that there was nothing wrong with it, and that such a life would make you stronger. Mascu took this to heart, which made him a feared commando in the future.
At this moment, the "most dangerous man in Europe" is directing his men to rush over and over again to "the cells where important people are held in prisons".
On the afternoon of July 28, 1941, at the SS airfield in Berlin, Germany, the commandos were ready to go. According to Operation Lightning, 120 selected commandos were towed by 4 Ju-89 aircraft and 12 ****** transported.
In a group of two Ju-89s, 6 ****** 60 "direct commandos" were in charge of one prison, with planes 1 and 2 going to Lubyanka prison, and planes 3 and 4 going to Levtovo prison.
Among them, the No. 1 crew will attack the old guard tower of the prison, eliminate the sentries, and rescue the hostages; Crew No. 2 was responsible for suppressing the Soviet defenders, creating chaos, releasing other Soviet political prisoners and destroying other prison facilities in preparation for the evacuation.
In addition, four converted Ju-89s, two 30-mm guns with hedgehog-like guns, known as "air defense fortresses", will be dispatched, and two will be used as field hospitals, equipped with 23 medical personnel and two well-equipped operating rooms.
At 3:10 p.m., after the group of aircraft participating in the operation had flown off, Musku chose the flight route from Berlin to the north, into the Baltic Sea, and to fly over the oceans, so that there was less chance of being detected and not having to cross most of the Soviet airspace.
After arriving in Estonia, the plane changed direction and flew southeast, at this time the Soviet Union did not have radar, it was the patent of Britain and Germany, it was impossible to sell it to the Soviet Union, the enemy country of capitalism, even if the Soviet Union had several radars, they would be deployed around Masku, and the plane would be raised to the limit as soon as it flew over the Baltic Sea.
The ceiling of the use of the Ju-89 is 10,200 meters, and the current Soviet Union has no anti-aircraft guns that can hit an altitude of 10,000 meters, and the world-famous German 88 anti-aircraft gun can shoot at an altitude of 10,350 meters, and now the Soviet Union's anti-aircraft artillery can knock down 8,000 meters at an altitude is the most advanced.
According to the predetermined plan, the fleet will fly at an ultra-high altitude throughout the flight, and the altitude above the ground cannot be less than 9,000 meters. Because the higher the plane, the less the sound of the aircraft engine can be heard on the ground, and the plane flies to an altitude of 9,000 meters, and there is no sound on the ground.
After coming to the vicinity of Estonia, the aircraft turned to the right and entered Soviet airspace, continued to the southeast, and entered Moscow airspace. The two groups of aircraft went to their respective targets.
2 Ju-89 planes lowered altitude, and when the formation was approaching the Lubyanka, the weather suddenly deteriorated, thunder and lightning rolled, torrential rain poured in, and the planes violently tossed.
At the risk of being struck by lightning, the group relied on on-board navigation to navigate and grope its way forward in extremely poor visibility. After more than 2 hours, the plane finally broke through the clouds. Prison is already in sight. At 10:40 p.m., Mascu's landline arrived over a flat area south of the prison.
At this time, the prison was brightly lit and showed no signs of vigilance. A ****** was laid over a flat area two kilometres from Lubyanka prison, led by Mascu himself.
Beginning to break away from the JU-89, like a sharp sword cutting through the dark sky, bravely and fearlessly advancing towards the target, the clouds are still very high tonight, and the night sky below three thousand meters suddenly opens up.
Inside the ******, Mascu can clearly see the ground through the telescope, which brings a lot of convenience to landing. Six ****** swooped silently into the flat ground, ****** was good, and landed silently.
"Bump...... Sneer......"
Masku's ****** touched the ground first, and ****** continued to rush forward violently under the huge inertia, and the bodies of the commandos in the ****** also jumped up and down with the violent jolting of the ******. As soon as the ****** stopped, the door of the ****** slammed open, and the "direct flight commando" inside rushed out of the window like lightning and rushed towards the target that he had already determined.
The guns used by the "direct flight commandos" are completely special SGT44 silenced submachine guns, and grenades are also not used as much as possible, and flash grenades or explosions are generally not loud.
The mission of Mascu's assault team was to capture the tower, the watchtower above the gate of the Lubyanka prison, and then open the gate to open the passage for the follow-up troops.
Of course, you can also choose to blow up the prison wall, but this will alarm the guards, which is not a good idea, and the most direct way is to take down the prison gate directly, open the gate generously, and kill it directly.
Killing the other party by surprise, rescuing Yegorov and retreating, the subsequent commandos continued to release other prisoners and create chaos in the prison.
Once the prison of tens of thousands of people is in chaos, it is strange that the guards are not torn apart by them, and when the Soviet reinforcements come, the first thing that comes to mind is to quell the prison riots.
Another point is that the Soviet Union could not think of anyone who dared to come to the Lubyanka prison to save people, let alone that they came to rescue Yegorov, so it can be said that the entire Lubyanka prison was not at all guarded.
Mascu and a pair of commandos rushed to a stop three hundred meters outside the gate of Lubyanka Prison, took out his binoculars and carefully observed the situation on the watchtower of the prison gate that was faintly visible.
With a wave of his hand, the three fighters crawled out, and the three marksmen quickly crawled close to the prison gate, mainly because the visibility was not good, and these gunmen needed to get close to the prison gate to a hundred meters, so that they could accurately kill the guards on the watchtower.
