Chapter 48: Hiding in the dark night

From the distance, the village in the distance may be where Lynn fought in the morning, but the plausible terrain environment could not be completely certain. Seeing the tall officer and his "directly-born" soldiers studying the combat map, Lynn realized that the Soviet armored troops were likely to be the target of their operation. Compared with the camp, the positions and material reserve points, the troops could move at any time, and the stationing time in one place would not last long. Could it be that before dark, the German reconnaissance planes found that the Soviet armored troops were stationed here, and after dark, the German command sent elite night combat troops to attack?

This speculation works logically, but Lin Neng looked at the village in the distance with confusion, and the tanks and vehicles parked there were densely packed, and the number was impossible to estimate. According to the Soviet army's combat habits during World War II, this should at least be an armored force of battalion level. Lin Neng felt that unless the accompanying transport vehicles were loaded with large amounts of combat supplies, or that was the Soviet division-level and above command center and its armed guards, even if fifty German infantry could carry out a successful raid, at most, the armored force would not be able to attack in a short time, and it would be impossible to severely or even wipe it out. Without an armored battalion or even an armored regiment, the Soviet army's surging offensive would not be significantly curbed.

Without asking for advice from Lynn or any of the "miscellaneous soldiers", the "Night Warriors" led by tall officers entered the substantive stage of action through discussion. The soldiers without carrying large boxes removed their bag-type military backpacks and took out something similar to bricks from it. At the signal of the tall officers, the "miscellaneous soldiers" stepped forward one after another, each of them received two. It was soon Linen's turn. Although he had never been exposed to explosives before, the thing wrapped in a straw-shaped strip was known to be a combination of strong explosives +** at a glance. Looking at the gesture of the "Night Warriors", he pulled the top of the strip for ten seconds and exploded.

Lin Neng weighed it and weighed about two pounds per pack of explosives, which did not pose any threat to tank armor, but if thrown into the tank or placed in key positions such as induction wheels and engine hoods, it should still be destructive. As for humans, if they are directly detonated, it would be an amazingly powerful "human bomb"!

After the soldiers got the explosive combination, the bag-style backpacks of the "Dark Night Warriors" were almost empty. They each had two packs of explosives, each putting them into the large pocket on the bottom of the combat uniform. After that, the tall officer did not speak and took the lead in unloading the kettle and putting it on the ground. The "Dark Night Warriors" immediately removed all the items that might make unnecessary noises, such as kettles, bayonets, shovels, etc. Although the soldiers were a little hesitant, they still did it one by one. The tall officer did not intend to inspect.

Check whether the soldiers were completely light and simple. He waved his left hand and walked out of the woods with the big box on his back. Compared to his posture of moving in the wilderness just now, their bodies were pressed lower, so that their legs were bent and alternated with each other. This reminded Linn of the CS. The character was like this when he was squatting. The m42 helmet was paired with an m43 camouflage combat uniform. These "dark night warriors" were obviously the police.

After the "Dark Night Warrior" carrying a big box, the ten "substitutes" who removed the explosives carefully left the woods in roughly the same posture. The "missile soldiers" who were still in the woods are now looking at me and I look at you. Even though you know that the road ahead will be dead for life, you must make a quick decision whether to advance or retreat.

Without a supervising team, if most of the companions around him chose to flee at the last minute, Lin Neng would probably not move forward alone. However, after a moment of thinking, more than 30 "miscellaneous soldiers" who were temporarily pieced together from the front line still took steps forward. In this way, five equipped infrared night vision devices were at the front, and ten well-equipped assault riflesmen were more than ten meters apart. Twenty meters apart were the group where Lin Neng was, and fifty German soldiers walked slowly and cautiously in the fields between the woods and the village. Although it was not midnight at this time, the starlight above his head was already slackening, and the wind blowing through his face was particularly cold.

Walking down the hillside of the woods, Lin En suddenly saw two people lying in front of him. The companions who were accompanying him were also surprised by this situation. Many people deliberately walked up and took a look. These two were Su soldiers wearing Su-made steel helmets and white cloaks. The young faces looked particularly pale under the starlight. One of them tilted his head and looked into the distance in astonishment. The other was facing up to the sky, with his eyes wide open under his thick eyebrows. It seemed that he had never figured out what had happened until his death.

It is not surprising to see corpses on the battlefield. What really made Lynn curious was how the road-exploring night warriors shot them without attracting the attention of the enemy - there was no gunshot during the marching, and in the night environment, the sound of ordinary pistol shooting could be heard far away.

With these questions, Lynn squatted down to check the two bodies. They were both shot in their chests, the man on the left was shot three times, and the one on the right was shot four times. The bullet hole wound was much smaller than that of ordinary rifles and was more concentrated. At first glance, it looked like the rapid shooting of the assault rifle. However, Lynn had heard of the sound of mp44 firing. It was crisp like fried steel beans in an iron pot. Unless a silencer was used, it would be impossible to shoot seven shots in a row without being noticed by nearby Soviet sentries. However, Lynn had never heard of the Germans developing a silencer device for assault rifles during World War II.

However, some pistols were equipped with original silencers with unknown effects, such as the Czech-made Cz27, which is less well-known than Ruger 08 and P38. This 7.65mm caliber pistol was originally distributed to Czech police and customs border guards. After the German army occupied the entire territory of Czechoslovakia, it was renumbered to p27(t) and continued to produce. By the end of the war, a total of 480,000 equipment was provided to the German army and police forces, some of which were equipped with special muzzle mufflers, making this small-caliber semi-automatic pistol more concealed when used.

Although he was unable to witness the "Dark Night Warrior" quietly hunting the target, Lin Neng could imagine how cruel and cool the scene would be. Looking at the remains of these two Soviet soldiers, he suddenly had a bold idea: put on the Soviet uniform and mingle into the other party's camp. This would not only give the opportunity to find out the other party's actual deployment before the raid was launched, but also create chaos when his own troops were put into the attack, and it could even complete the beheading cleanly. However, communication is an important prerequisite for all plans. With his current language ability, he is not yet 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 hatefully, Lin En had to get up and follow his companions to continue moving forward.

Walking down the hillside further forward is the road leading to the village. The leader of the "Night Warrior" did not intend to get close to or cross the road, but led the team to walk in the fields parallel to the road. After a while, a fire flashed from the other side of the village, and a slight bang came, and the soldiers hurriedly fell down. The flares that passed by the air fell far behind the woods. Lynn suddenly realized: the flares that made him almost fainted were fired from that village!

Lin En looked up slightly, and obviously, the people stayed in the village could not directly observe the situation behind the woods, which meant that the Soviet army should have set up an observation post near the woods just now. Judging from the current situation, their observation post did not find the German squad crossing the defense line, or like the two Soviet corpses I just saw, and before they could sound the alarm, they were killed by the German pathfinder soldiers. Although they knew that night vision devices could play a very effective tactical role, Lin En did not expect that these "dark night warriors" had such a sharp combat level.
