Battle of the Third Reich

Along the way, Aunt Juncker landed smoothly on the runway at Frederick Air Force Base, the general and the majors returned to their temporary residences, and the emperor's head was dragged away by his own chief of staff and adjutant. At the same time, at the g04 base 150 kilometers away, Colonel Dougan and Randolph are playing a cat-and-mouse game happily.

The ground scorched by the hot sun in summer was slightly hot. After the diplomatic activities, the officers and men of the guard flag team took off their black dresses. The officers insisted on wearing white shirts in order to maintain their military appearance. The soldiers didn't care about that much. Many people took off only a sports vest. Just as they packed up their equipment and prepared to board the transport plane that picked them up and returned to the base, a message from the airport security forces interrupted their operations.

"I can bet that those must be foreign spies." Captain Stark lifted his head with the kettle and poured a sip of water.

As the captain of the flag team, his line is the most heavy and cumbersome, and he not only has to take his men to show all the ceremonies under the scorching sun, but also accompany him throughout the entire event. By the end of the event, Captain Stark's shirt and uniform were almost soaked with sweat. If he had drunk a few glasses of cold lemonade halfway, he might have suffered a heat stroke until the end.

But at the moment, I heard reports from the security forces that the captain of the flag team was full of blood and resurrected the spirit on the spot, and fought bravely against the enemies of the empire. That was what Stark dreamed of. Although the guard flag team has been conducting military training all the year round, the team members are well aware that they basically have no chance of participating in the war, but they did not expect that in this hidden airport, the opportunity fell from the sky like this, arresting foreign spies. This experience is enough to be passed down from generation to generation of family legend. All SS officers and soldiers no longer took into account the weather, and began to put on black uniforms again. Since he wants to participate in the battle, how can the guard flag team representing the head of state go out in such a disheveled manner to meet people?

"It was the reconnaissance team of the 31st Division. They found an unmarked forced landing plane during the march. Judging from the traces on the scene, there were one or two wounded on the plane, so the unidentified passengers should be returned. "I didn't go far in the neighborhood," Randolph said while hanging the three-magazine magazine of the submachine gun around his waist, and then took a mp40 submachine gun from a soldier.

"The 31st Infantry Division has been stationed in Normandy since June. They are already very familiar with the nearby terrain. Eventually they tracked into a nearby wood and found that they might be blocking the other party. They immediately sent people here to seek Our support, they have only one company, the number is only enough to block the periphery of the forest." Lieutenant Schumann, commander of the base police company added.

"It was them that Major Randolph heard in radio communications just now," Colonel Dougan said while examining his silver-plated Ruger.

"We have to search the suspicious woods to find out the spies of unknown identity. If possible, try to catch them alive. Then we will torture the other party's real purpose. They will not be there for no reason. Does it have something to do with the head of state's trip? Are these people going to be unfavorable to the head of state?" Dougan pushed up the magazine and pulled the rifle.

"What if the other party's fierce resistance is encountered." Captain Stark buttoned up the black m35 helmet. Tighten the jaw strap.

"If you encounter a stubborn resistance, you can kill." Colonel Dougan closed the insurance skillfully and inserted the pistol into the holster on the belt.

Under the guidance of the soldiers of the airport security company, the heavily armed guard flag team soon joined the German reconnaissance force requesting support.

"This is the 31st Reconnaissance Battalion?" Randolph looked at the German troops guarding around the woods in stunned silence.

"You didn't tell me they were cavalry." The Major SS turned to Lieutenant Schumann.

At this time. The other party also saw reinforcements walking along the road, and several officers quickly rushed to the horse to welcome them.

"Thirty-first Scout Battalion Company, I am Lieutenant Commander Kurt Helms." The officer who led the team came forward and flew off the horse, quickly walked in front of Dougan to salute the Colonel of the SS. Although the Army and SS are not affiliated with each other. However, the rank of the rank is still clear.

"I'm Colonel Dougan at the head of the adjutant's office. This is Major Randolph, Lieutenant Schumann of the airport security company. That is Captain Stark of the head of state guard flag." Introduce your subordinates.

"Heads of State and Deputy Chiefs! Guard Banner!" Helms' eyes widened in surprise.

At the beginning, he wondered why he saw a team of SS here, but he didn't expect it to be the famous head guard. Now that the head of state's guard is in this place, then head of state Helms can't help but look around looking forward.

"The head of state has already returned to the headquarters. If you did not ask for help in time, we would have followed the head of state to the base camp. Speaking of which, your luck is really good, Lieutenant Helms. Now let's talk about the specifics What happened, what happened?" Dougan guessed what the cavalry lieutenant was thinking when he looked at the other party's look, and interrupted the other party's delusion mercilessly on the spot.

"Oh, yes, Colonel." After hearing Dougan's words, Helms felt a little disappointed, but he recovered quickly. Now it's not time to think about those problems. He still has difficult problems before him. Solve it immediately.

"We set off from Lyon this morning and the division sent us to Dieppe to get a group of cavalry equipment and supplies. On a small river almost two kilometers southwest of the woods, we found a forced landing in the field The twin-engine transport aircraft was damaged very seriously. What caught my attention at the time was that there was no sign that could prove its identity on the fuselage. Then we found that the place where the sign was originally painted was intentionally covered with paint. Afterwards, my person entered the cabin and found these things in the plane." Helms took a briefcase from the soldiers next to him and handed it to Dougan.

"Is it found in that plane?" Dogen opened the briefcase and pulled out a document inside.

"It's all numbers, there are some things that look like formulas, maybe passwords and the like, which requires a professional to understand." Dougan flipped over the purse and pulled out a pistol from the inside.

"Astra 400, Pound Sterling, Mark, Lira. Well, there are several blank passes issued by the Paris Command, which are obviously forged." After checking the contents of the leather bag, Dougan re-buttoned it Hand over to Stark.

"This is an important piece of evidence, and someone has to be assigned to look after it."

"Comply, Colonel." Stark answered loudly after taking the purse.

"What else did you find." Dogen asked.

"Two drivers and one of the passengers died on the spot. Judging from the number of seats, there should be five to six people alive at the time. There were a lot of blood left on the scene. We judged that one or two people were falling. I was injured when I was on the plane. Then we tracked the traces left by them all the way, and they have been here. They should have hid in this wood. I took people to search and found that the trees inside are very lush, relying on my hand People at this point can't finish the search before dark." Helms answered seriously.

"So you thought of asking for help from the nearest airport guard. It was a wise decision to decide how many people you have."

"One hundred and seventy-four people and two hundred horses."

"Is it all blocked all around?"

"I sent a platoon on each side, and no one could escape from it."

"We've come to three companies this time, let's hand it over to us. It's not too early. We have to catch these mice before it gets dark." Dougan waved at Stark after he finished speaking. .

"Attention squadrons, lined up in search formations, Fichio, you take a row to the left, Herman takes your people to the right, and the others follow me. Guard flag team! Go forward!" Stark lifted His pistol gave orders to his men, then he turned his face to salute Dougan, and then led the soldiers slowly into the woods.

"Lieutenant Schumann, your people are with me." Dougan ordered to the commander of the airport security company, and then he turned to Lieutenant Cavalry.

"Lieutenant Helms, the blockade on the periphery will be given to you. These people are probably foreign spies who want to be detrimental to the head of state. I will report to the head of person about your achievements this time. By the way, you ask your superior Has it been reported?"

"I have sent people back to report. I think the support in the camp should also be on the road."

"Very good, keep in touch with the radio, and notify me immediately if there is any movement."

"Observe, Colonel Dougan." Hearing his deeds to the head of state, Lieutenant Helms couldn't help but be overjoyed. This may be an important opportunity in his life. Of course, he must hold his performance well. (To be continued.)
