West of the town of Sarne, Ferglein shook hands with Lieutenant Colonel Gail, Chief of Staff, and Colonel Koch, the head of the 101 Special Air Service Regiment.

"I will take the first and third groups to rob the Russians, and I will leave it to your command here."

Lieutenant Colonel Gail said: "Don't worry, I will lead the remaining troops to create the illusion that our entire division is fighting them in the town of Saboroger and attract their attention."

Feiglein nodded and turned to look at Colonel Koch.

"If there is no accident, we will meet again soon."

Colonel Koch said, "General, I look forward to meeting you again."

With the eyes of Colonel Koch and Lieutenant Colonel Gail, Feiglein turned around and took the reins from the orderly soldiers behind him, jumped onto the war horse, turned around and left, and joined the marching column of the First Cavalry Regiment.

Under the order of Feiglein, the First Cavalry Regiment and the Third Cavalry Regiment left all heavy weapons and bulky motor vehicles, carrying only weapons that war horses could carry, and marched towards the southwest in a mighty manner.

As early as last night, Feiglein sent a reconnaissance battalion to pre-spot the planned marching route.

In order to minimize the possibility of encountering the enemy, Feiglein chose the march route, deliberately avoiding the only few roads in the swamp, and only choosing countryside dirt roads.

These country roads that can only accommodate a carriage at the widest width, and that are narrow enough to allow a war horse to walk on will be a disaster for armored and motorized forces, but only add a little trouble to the troops of Feiglein, which are all composed of cavalry.

During the march, Feiglein's most action was to look up at the sky. His greatest hope for this march was not to be discovered by the Soviet Air Force.

After arriving at a village called Antonifka, Feiglein's troops turned to the south.

On the way, Feiglein saw four times flying over the nearby sky with Soviet aircraft fleets.

Even though the Soviet fleets were just flying by in a hurry at mid-to-high altitude and had no dive at all, Feiglein was very nervous for a while.

By noon, Feiglein, like other soldiers, rode on horseback, and hurriedly ate a few slices of bread for lunch with the cold water in the kettle.

During the dull marching, another three hours passed quickly. At 3:00 pm, after more than fifty kilometers of march, Feiglein and the First Cavalry Regiment moved into a village called Kanifka.

Kanifka village had been occupied by a company of reconnaissance battalions. When entering the village, Feiglein found no traces of battle left on the village buildings.

After giving the First Cavalry Regiment and the Third Cavalry Regiment the orders for concealment, the two cavalry regiments were dispersed in battalions and moved into nearby villages and towns to rest and standby.

While waiting patiently, time passed by one hour and one hour, and it was not until nine:30 pm that Kanifka village was boiling again.

Feiglein led the orderly soldiers to hide into the vast night with the headquarters of the First Cavalry Regiment and advanced straight to the east.

After about an hour and a half, Feiglein found that the marching column had stopped.

"What's going on? Why stop the march?" Feiglein asked dissatisfied.

"The people from the reconnaissance battalion found the Russian army in the village ahead."

Feiglein found Colonel Lester, the commander of the First Cavalry Regiment.

"The village in front is less than five kilometers away from our destination. Now it is eleven and thirty. I will enter that village before 11:30."

After receiving the order from Feiglein, Colonel Leicester turned around and walked towards the village in the distance.

Feiglein rode his horse, took out his telescope, and looked at the village in the distance.

The outlines of dozens of houses flashed faintly in the darkness, and there seemed to be human-shaped black shadows moving at the entrance of the village directly opposite him.

"The garrison of a village of this size should not exceed one company."

The figures of cavalry soon appeared in the field of view of Feiglein's telescope.

The cavalry walked off the road and followed the sides of the road, using the cover of night to touch the villages in the distance.

The soldiers on the north side of the road were lucky. Corn was planted in the fields there. The soldiers plunged into the cornfield and approached the village boldly.

The soldiers on the south side of the road bent down and walked for a distance, then turned to crawling forward.

About ten minutes later, a shining flame suddenly burst out from the night sky on the north side of the road in Feiglein's telescope, and then the familiar sound of the stg42 assault rifle fired.

The unique "hissing" sound of the mg42 machine gun rang out immediately, and tracer bombs flew straight towards the Soviet sentry at the entrance of the village.

Several agile figures rushed out of the cornfield, and these figures rushed to the entrance of the village. After a moment, Feiglein saw a series of huge fires bursting out from the entrance of the village, and the sound of the m24 long-handled grenade explosion was heard into his ears.

At the moment the battle started, figures emerged from the fields on the south side of the road. These figures rushed to the remaining distance in one sprint, and rushed into the village in the gaps of houses.

The flames at the muzzle and the explosion of grenades quickly spread into the village. The sounds of gunfirein's ears came one after another, and the sounds of various domestic animals such as chickens, ducks, and dogs were mixed in the middle.

While waiting patiently, the sound of gunfire gradually subsided, leaving only the roar of domestic animals.

Feiglein looked at his watch and the battle lasted less than half an hour.

Two minutes later, Colonel Lester, the commander of the First Cavalry Regiment, found Feigelein and invited him to the village, but was rejected by Feigelein.

"Our existence has been exposed and we have no time to rest. Leave the wounded in this village, and the fighters immediately head east and march to our destination."

After receiving the new order from Feiglein, the cavalry jumped on horseback, rode their horses and headed straight to the road five kilometers away.

After galloping out of three kilometers in the night, the cavalry stopped marching, and at the command of Feiglein, they threw down their horses and continued on foot.

After walking about a kilometer, the cavalry saw that the road under their feet extended hundreds of meters eastward and entered a north-south road.

Beams of light were shot out on the road, so dazzling against the night sky, it was the beam of light emitted by the headlights of the truck.

Seeing the car running on the road, Feiglein's eyes were filled with joy.

Pripyat swamp is mainly composed of wetlands and dense primeval forests. The only few railways and roads are all built on several "ground bridges" with higher terrain in the swamp. The road in front of you is one of them.

Feiglein rubbed his hands excitedly.

In his judgment, the Soviet combat troops were all focused on Belarus and would not stay too much in the Pripyat swamp.

Correspondingly, the Soviet logistics forces would work tirelessly and work overnight to transport various supplies to the combat troops rushing out of the swamp. Feiglein's target was the Soviet army's fragile transportation line.

Feiglein turned his head and looked around, finding a relatively high terrain, holding a telescope to look at the road in the distance.

The cavalry once again scattered to both sides of the road and approached the road using the cover of night and various vegetation.

When the cavalry approached about 200 meters on the road, the first convoy that Feigelein saw had already passed by. The convoy did not expect that he would almost become the first victim of Feigelein.

After discussing with Colonel Leicester, the commander of the First Cavalry Regiment, Leicester led the Second and Third Battalions up and down to advance south along the wilderness on the west side of the highway, and Feigelein stayed in place.

Being endured the bites of mosquitoes, Feiglein stared at the south of the road.

Under the "air raid" of mosquitoes, when four more pimples appeared on the exposed skin such as Feiglein's neck and back of his hands, Feiglein saw the long-awaited beam again, and the roar of the truck engine was faintly heard in the night.

Staring at the increasingly brighter beam, a bloodthirsty light appeared in Feiglein's eyes.

Looking around, Feiglein saw that the fleet of trucks had at least twenty.

As the head of the convoy moved, Feiglein's eyes moved inch by inch to the north. When the head truck almost disappeared into his eyes, a fire suddenly shot out from the darkness on the west side of the highway.

A tank killer rocket flew out of the grass and instantly hit the cab of the front car of the convoy.

Amid the explosion, the leading Gastruk turned right and rushed out of the highway, stumbled and rushed out of more than ten meters in the wilderness and stopped.

Rockets kicked off the ambush, and tracer bombs flew out from the roadside, pounced on the unprepared truck convoy, landing on the truck's cab and tires.

The originally neat and orderly convoy suddenly became a mess, and the Gas Trucks either rushed out of the road or collided.

In the rear compartment and the cab, Soviet soldiers flew out, some were thrown out by out-of-control trucks, and some jumped to escape.

At least four trucks had a big explosion, the truck's body was torn to pieces by shock waves, and the wreckage was surrounded by flames.

Seeing the gasoline barrel thrown into the sky by the explosion air waves, Feiglein couldn't help but sneer a few times.

The Soviet army, who survived the first round of attacks in the convoy, launched a meaningless resistance. However, this team of drivers and logistics personnel, in front of Feiglein's troops, was completely crushed in terms of number, firepower, and combat experience.

In more than ten minutes, a one-sided massacre came to an end. Except for some Soviet soldiers who fled, all trucks and most of the personnel of this transport convoy were wiped out.

Avoiding the flame-covered truck wreckage, the cavalry of the first battalion left the ambush site and searched for the trophy on the bodies of Soviet soldiers and the rest of the truck wreckage.

After cleaning the battlefield, the first battalion of soldiers stayed away from the highway and returned to the place where the war horses were saved was on standby.

Staring at the south, Colonel Leicester's disappearance, Feiglein waited patiently.

When the time advanced to nearly two o'clock, Feiglein finally heard the faint sound of gunfires coming from the south.

Picking up the telescope and looking south, Feiglein saw the flames flashing from the distance illuminating the night sky, knowing that it was the troops led by Colonel Leicester that had started the battle.

The nails on the thumb of the left hand pressed tightly against the mosquito bite on the back of the right hand, and used the pain to suppress the unbearable itching. Feiglein patiently waited for the end of the battle.

After waiting for more than forty minutes, Feiglein saw the flames of the battle in the south gradually weaken until they completely disappeared.

After waiting patiently for about five minutes, Feiglein received a good news from Colonel Leicester.

"Get on the horse, let's go."

Feiglein walked quickly to the side of the war horse, jumped onto the back, and rushed to the road.

A huge cavalry cluster followed behind Feiglein, and even the earth was trembling as countless horse hooves rose and fell.

Feiglein met again with Colonel Leicester in a newly occupied town.

The smell of gunpowder in the town has not yet dissipated, and more than a dozen buildings were bombed out of recognition, and more than twenty Soviet corpses were scattered on the streets.

More Soviet troops were captured, with nearly a hundred people.

"The ambush you commanded woke them up, so I had to attack. They probably didn't expect us to appear here at all. The resistance was completely symbolic, and I easily killed them."

"Very good, our combat plan has been going well so far at least, where is the radio station? I'm going to contact Colonel Koch," said Feiglein.

"Go ahead, in the second floor next to the road," said Colonel Leicester.

Five minutes later, an electric wave flew out of the town.
