These two Chinese friends are now also facing the fate of purging, no one in history can save him, and now Rommel is extending a saving hand because they are of great use to Rommel, one is for the Russian Liberation Army, but for the upcoming Armageddon in Moscow.

At the beginning of World War II, Germany captured a large number of Soviet soldiers without using them, and Stalin's purges were not popular at all.

For example, on June 25, 1940, Vlasov was captured, and he quickly proposed to cooperate with Germany, hoping to form a Russian Liberation Army from the prisoner of war camps, alongside Germany to eliminate Soviet power, and eventually establish a free Russia friendly to Germany.

At the time of Vlasov's treason, the USSR was in its most difficult moment, the experienced troops had been exhausted, new recruits were sent to the front in droves, dying in droves, and every usable straw in the rear had been sent to the front.

Vlasov explained to his subordinates: "Isn't it a crime to shed more blood? Could it be that the main enemies of the Russian nation were not Bolshevism and Stalin? Isn't it the primary sacred duty of every Russian to rise up against Stalin and his associates? ”

Khrushchev said that Vlasov was treason because he was not of good mind. But for Vlasov, as long as he was captured, he was a "deserter, a traitor to the Motherland and an enemy of the people", because the USSR did not recognize "prisoners of war".

Stalin's Order No. 270 of August 1941 declared that no prisoners were to be captured under any circumstances, and that commanders were to shoot those who were taken prisoner for fear of death. The Penal Code also clearly stipulates that the fighters are captured and their families are exiled.

Germany, on the other hand, was short-sighted and far-sighted, believing that the "inferior Slavs" were only worthy of fending for themselves in slavery and not worthy of establishing a state, and that the more than 5 million Soviet prisoners of war were only slaves and were not qualified to be organized to fight alongside the German army.

With the exception of Nazi Propaganda Minister Goebbels, senior Nazi officials called Vlasov a "stupid pig" and even forbade him to talk nonsense.

It can be said that this is a very huge national policy of Rommel, which has been corrected by Rommel, but the Russian People's Liberation Army of all ethnic groups does not have a unified command, and it does not have much combat power, and Rommel needs a field marshal of the Soviet Union in the real sense of the third to command the Russian Liberation Army.

The two marshals of the Soviet Union, even if only one could be saved, was the biggest and most merciless blow to Stalin, and the former subordinates of these two marshals might immediately throw themselves into the arms of Germany in the face of an unfavorable situation in the war.

Since these two marshals of the Soviet Union had to be saved, it was a bit particular about how to save them, and the rescue could not be allowed to fail. There are also rescue troops, that is, Masco's direct flight commando, the historical Masku can even save Mussolini, and now to save the Marshal of the Soviet Union, it should not be a big problem.

Since Rommel decided to do it, he didn't hesitate, and hurriedly sent two telegrams,

The first telegram was sent by Rommel to Mascu, ordering Musku to immediately organize a direct commando to prepare for the rescue of the two marshals of the Soviet Union, with Canaris as the commander-in-chief of the operation, the commander of the first line under the command of Mascu, and the participants to be decided by Mascu, the commander of the direct commando.

The second telegram was sent to General Canaris, the head of the Military Intelligence Bureau, and Rommel asked Canaris to provide Musku with all the intelligence support.

The two urgent telegrams were delivered to their respective masters at the first time, and the replies were timely, with both Mascu and Canaris accepting assurances to complete their missions.

If it was a spy arrangement, Canaris was very experienced and could organize rescue operations, and he was a layman in this regard, but he had a "direct flight commando" and a special operations expert, Mascu.

Although Mascu had no rescue experience, he gladly accepted Rommel's order, and immediately after Rommel's order from the street, he took a helicopter to Canaris's office.

"Hey! Rommel. ”

"O Mascu! You have something to do now, look at the Führer's telegram. ”

Musku hurriedly took the telegram from Rommel with both hands, read it quickly, and then said with great confidence:

"General, I am fully confident that I will complete the task assigned by the Führer, and the chance of success is more than 60 percent."

"Oh, Mascu, you think you're sixty percent sure, you know, if you fail, you're going to die, you've got it right."

"General, I have thought about it, I have decided to accept the task assigned by the Führer and complete it with all my efforts, I also know the consequences of failure, I know what to do."

"Well, Mascu, since you have decided to accept this mission, I am glad for your bravery and obedience, I wish you success, here is all the information you need, and there are also our agents at the mission site to assist you in a limited way, take it and study it carefully! If you need anything, you don't need to report it to me, just go directly to the quartermaster department to get it, and at the same time I will send a regiment of soldiers to assist you in simulated training, I wish you success, my friend. ”

"It's the general, guaranteed to complete the mission."

Masku hurriedly took the file handed by Canaris, which contained information about the detention location of the two marshals of the Soviet Union, and these information still needed to be carefully studied by Mascu, and then a simulated training ground would be established, and finally how to arrange the rescue, the specific work was very complicated.

Returning to the "direct commando" station, Masku hurriedly convened a meeting of officers, issued an order from the Führer, and found from the file photos and related materials of the two prisons of Yegorov and Blyukher, namely Lubyanka prison and Levtovo prison.

Masco's order was simple, they were to build a mock of the two prisons within twenty hours, and of course only build a building near the two marshals.

Otherwise, it would not be enough to rely on the 500 men of the "direct flight commandos" plus more than 2,000 men of an SS infantry regiment, because these two prisons are so big that Stalin is carrying out a great purge, and these two prisons hold more than 100,000 people, to say the least.

Masco, who has made outstanding achievements in the war but has been unknown, of course, also wants to become famous in one fell swoop with the help of this incident, and Masku himself also has this strength.

In the afternoon of the same day, countless trucks pulled all kinds of construction materials to the station of the direct flight commando team, and directly built various buildings on the original training ground, using wooden planks as much as possible, so that the construction work would be much faster.

Instead of paying attention to the construction of the building, Masku organized people to print out the floor plans of the two prisons, and each commando had a copy, which was so important, and of course knowing the map was also a quality that every commando must have.

Everything was ready, and at 3 p.m. on July 25, 1941, the "Operation Lightning" was released! What a bold plan! It's almost like a Arabian Nights myth! Germany was 2,000 kilometers away from Moscow in the Soviet Union, and the "direct commandos" had to rescue two important people from different prisons at the same time.

The difficulty can be imagined...... (To be continued.) )
