Judging from the distance, it was possible that the village in the distance was the same place where Lynn had fought in the morning, but the plausible terrain did not allow him to be completely sure. Seeing the tall officers and their "descendants" studying the battle map, Lynn realized that the Soviet armored unit was most likely the target of their operation. Unlike camps, positions, and supply points, troops can move at any time, and they don't stay in one place for too long. Could it be that before dark, German reconnaissance planes found signs that Soviet armored units were stationed here, and after dark, the German command sent elite night combat units to sneak attack?

Such speculation logically worked, but Lynn looked suspiciously at the village in the distance, where the number of tanks and vehicles parked was so dense that it was impossible to estimate. According to the combat habits of the Soviet army during World War II, it is speculated that this should be at least an armored unit of battalion size. Lynn felt that unless the accompanying transport vehicles were loaded with large quantities of war materials, or this was the Soviet army's divisional and above headquarters and its armed guard units, even if fifty German infantry could carry out a successful surprise attack, at most the armored force would not be able to attack in a short time, and it would be impossible to severely damage or even completely annihilate it. Without an armored battalion or even an armored regiment, the surging offensive of the Soviet army may not be significantly contained.

Without consulting Lynn or any of the "miscellaneous soldiers", the "Night Soldiers", led by tall officers, entered the action phase of the real surname through discussion. I saw that the soldiers who did not carry the big boxes unloaded their bag-type military backpacks and took out from them one by one similar to bricks, and at the signal of the tall officer, the "miscellaneous soldiers" stepped forward one after another, and each received two. Soon it will be Lynn's turn, although he has not been exposed to explosives ** before, but this thing wrapped in leather paper and inserted in a straw-shaped strip knows at a glance that it is a combination of explosives + **, and looking at the gesture of the "Night Warrior", pulling the top of this strip will explode with a delay of ten seconds.

Lynn weighed it, and the explosives weighed about two pounds per pack, and there was no threat to the tank's armor, but if it was thrown into the tank or placed in key locations such as induction wheels and engine covers, it should still be able to destroy it. As for people, if they are directly detonated, it will be an amazingly powerful "human flesh bomb"!

By the time the miscellaneous soldiers had all obtained the explosives set, the bag backpacks of the "Night Warriors" were almost empty, and they also had two packs of explosives each, each of which was put into a large pocket on the underside of their combat uniforms. After this, the tall officer did not speak, but took the lead in untying the kettle and placing it on the ground, and the "Night Warriors" immediately unloaded the kettle, bayonet, shovel, and all other objects that might make an unnecessary noise. Although the miscellaneous soldiers hesitated, they still did it one by one. The tall officer had no intention of checking whether the soldiers were completely light, so with a wave of his left hand, he took the lead out of the woods with the soldiers carrying the large boxes on their backs. Their bodies were pressed even lower than they had just been when they were marching through the wilderness, so that their legs were simply bent and alternating with each other—which reminded Lynn of CS again. This is what the characters move in a squatting state, and the M42 steel helmet is paired with the M43 camouflage combat uniform, and these "Night Warriors" are clearly playing the police side.

After the "Night Warriors" carrying the big box, the ten "substitutes" who had unloaded the explosives cautiously left the woods in roughly the same posture, and the "miscellaneous soldiers" who remained in the woods looked at me and I looked at you, knowing that the road ahead was life-threatening, and that they had to make a decision on whether to advance or retreat.

In the absence of the Warlords, if most of the companions around him chose to flee from the battle, Lynn probably would not have gone alone, but after a moment of thought, more than thirty "miscellaneous soldiers" improvised from the front line still took a step forward. In this way, five people equipped with infrared night vision devices were at the front, ten well-equipped assault riflemen were separated by more than ten meters, and twenty meters further back was Lynn's group, fifty German soldiers walked slowly and cautiously through the fields between the woods and the village. Although it was not yet midnight, the starlight above the head had already slackened, and the wind blowing in the face was extremely cold.

Walking down the hillside of the woods, Lynn saw two people lying in front of him, and his companions were also surprised by the situation, and many of them were interested in approaching to take a look. Both were Soviet soldiers wearing Soviet-made steel helmets and white cloaks, their young faces looking particularly pale in the starlight. One of them tilted his head, looking into the distance with a stunned face, and the other turned his back to the sky, and a pair of eyes under his thick eyebrows stared round, thinking that he had not figured out what had happened until he died.

It wasn't strange to see corpses on the battlefield, and what really made Lynn curious was how the pathfinder Night Warriors shot them without attracting the attention of the enemy - no gunfire was heard during the march, and in the night environment, the sound of a normal pistol shot could be heard far away.

With these questions in mind, Lynn crouched down to examine the two bodies. They were all shot in the chest, the man on the left was shot three times, the one on the right was shot four times, the bullet hole wound was much smaller than ordinary rifle bullets and the spread was more concentrated, at first glance it looked like the rapid fire of an assault rifle, but the sound of MP44 firing Lynn had heard, it was crisp like frying steel beans in an iron pot, unless a silencer was used, it was impossible to shoot seven rounds in a row without being detected by the nearby Soviet sentry. However, Lynn had never heard of the Germans developing a silencer for assault rifles during World War II, but instead equipped some pistols with primitive silencers of unknown effect, such as the Czech-made CZ27, which was less well-known than the Ruger 08 and P38. Originally issued by the Czech police and customs border guards, the 7.65 mm pistol was renumbered P27(t) after the German occupation of Czechoslovakia and continued production, and by the end of the war 480,000 were equipped with German [***] units and police units, some of which were equipped with special muzzle silencers, thus making the small-caliber semi-automatic pistol more concealed in use.

Although she didn't witness the Night Soldier quietly hunting down her target, Lynn could have imagined how cold and cool it must have been. Looking at the remains of these two Soviet soldiers, he suddenly had a bold idea: to put on Soviet uniforms and blend into the other party's camp. This gives you the opportunity to find out what the enemy is actually doing before the raid is launched, creates chaos when your troops go on the attack, and even allows you to decapitate cleanly. However, communication is an important prerequisite for all plans, and with his current language skills, he is not able to communicate with the people around him normally, so he cannot let others know his thoughts and intentions, let alone think about how to convince them.

Thinking of this with hatred, Lynn had no choice but to get up and follow his companions on.

Descending the hill and beyond is the road leading to the village, but the lead "Night Warriors" have no intention of approaching or crossing the road, but instead lead the team through the fields parallel to the road. After a while, the fire flickered on the other side of the village, and a slight thud was heard, and the soldiers fell to their stomachs. The flares that flew through the air fell far behind the trees, and it dawned on Lynn that the flares that had almost made her faint with nervousness had been fired from that village!

Leaning on the cold ground, Lynn looked up slightly. Obviously, the people who stayed in the village could not directly observe what was going on behind the woods, which meant that the Soviets should have set up an observation post near the woods. Judging from the current situation, their observation post did not find this German detachment that crossed the defensive line, or, like the two Soviet corpses just seen, was killed by the German pathfinders before they could raise the alarm - although they knew that night vision devices could play a very effective tactical role at the beginning, Lynn did not expect these "night warriors" to have such a sharp combat level.
