Chapter 974 Swallow Action

India.

India in this era has not yet divided it, belonging to a vast South Asian subcontinent. Churchill, who fled here, and King George VI, and some of his subordinates, were discussing American intelligence.

Why do we need to blow up the heavy water factory in Norway? We have already explained to them initially that the Germans want to create a terrible weapon, which requires heavy water to produce. If the heavy water factory is blown up, the process of manufacturing this terrible weapon of the Germans can greatly slow down.

If this weapon is manufactured, even the United States will not have to fight and the war will be over.

So, the consequences are very serious.

"What we can use is Greenland. If bombers take off from here, they can get Vimok, Norway." Colin Bingers, the Minister of Special Operations Department who fled, said to the people present: "However, Vimok factory is surrounded by mountains. If the plane flies over, it will not be able to carry out accurate bombing. This requires a large number of bombers, and Greenland cannot take off and land too many aircraft."

Greenland, originally a territory of Denmark, occupied Denmark almost without any effort in the war last year. At that time, Britain immediately sent troops to occupy Greenland, which was considered to have saved a base of advance.

Later, according to the agreement to exchange weapons with the United States base, Greenland was handed over to the United States for management.

If you only look at it from the map, Greenland is a good base. It is easy to attack Germany with Greenland as a springboard, but this is just taken for granted.

Because almost most of Greenland is within the Arctic Circle, the entire island is severely cold all year round, which is a typical cold climate. The temperature in coastal areas can reach above zero degrees in summer, while the inland parts are frozen all year round.

In such areas, the activities of people are very sparse. The entire huge Greenland Island has a total population of less than 50,000. This is a completely ice and snow world, and it is not something that ordinary people can bear. If the American bomber troops are allowed to enter here, it will definitely be a nightmare for ground crew members.

At the same time, the take-off and landing of aircraft on ice is also full of risks, so it is possible to send one or two aircraft to fly by specialized personnel, but it is impossible to send a large number of bombers to bomb.

There is no place for more soldiers here, so Germany has always allowed the United States to occupy Greenland. Its strategic significance is not great, and now, Germany does not want to have a head-on conflict with the United States.

Now, we can use Greenland as a springboard so that our own personnel can pass by smoothly!

"The Vimok Chemical Factory is located on Mount Baron. We can first airborne several commandos to Mount Baron. After these commandos arrive near the factory and make corresponding preparations, they will send an assault team to meet them in a glider, so as to blow the chemical factory to ashes in one fell swoop." Stevenson, head of the Security Coordination Bureau, said on the side.

His idea was to copy the special operations of the Germans in the past. No matter what they did, the Germans did the best! This was really depressing.

"We have to choose Norwegians to complete it, and it is best to live there, which is the most convenient." Churchill said.

Norway also obeyed Germany, which did not affect Norwegians' lives much. The locals were still locals, so if they sent familiar people back, they would easily get local support.

"The action plan is called Swallow, it must be completed beautifully," Churchill said.

Compared to last year, Churchill looked even older and had a lot of white hair on his forehead. However, until now, he has not given up his ideals.

The Swallow's action plan began soon because they could not wait. Unfortunately, they didn't know that their seemingly strict plan was actually full of loopholes.

The dga-15 Nightingale is a small and flexible single-engine aircraft.

This was made by Howard's Seus Aircraft Company. After it was put on the market, it received praise from all sides and had good output. Now, this aircraft has installed sleds in the snow below, which are specially prepared for take-off and landing in the snow.

The Pu-Hue R-985 "Hornet" engine has been improved and specially adopted oil pipe heating technology to prevent gasoline from solidifying at low temperatures. Now, it is already evening when the plane takes off from Greenland.

Although summer has not yet entered, there is less time at night in the Arctic Circle, and there are a lot of time during the day. On this moonlit night, the moon is sparse, which is a good weather for flying!

The cabin is not big and can accommodate five members. In addition to the pilot, there are four passengers.

Bjorn Eric, a Norwegian, has lived in the Vimok area since he was a child. This time, during Operation Swallow, he signed up without hesitation and became the captain of the first team to enter.

The other three people around him were also Norwegians. After the Norwegian king was forced to flee, they also wandered with him and finally arrived in India. Now, they can finally return to Norway again and carry out a major mission!

Eric was very excited. He closed his eyes and thought about his task again. For him, it seemed to be a very simple task.

The cabin was very cold. In order not to be discovered by the air force in Norway, the aircraft lowered its altitude and almost flew on the sea.

Germany already has radar, and in Norway, although Germany does not have large-scale garrisons, it is still stationed by air force and navy. There must be detection radars on the coastline.

So they have to use small planes and fly at ultra-low altitudes to avoid being detected by radar. This is very important and affects their life and death.

You can see the floating ice on the sea, floating with the ocean currents, and finally, the land was vaguely seen in front of you.

The pilot pushed the operating rod and the small and flexible nightingale plane drilled into the mountains. Because Norway is a narrow country, it can almost reach the sky above the target after drilling into land.

"Prepare to skydiving!" Eric shouted: "Drop our equipment first."

As the first small teams to enter, they also need to bring some things, such as food, radios connected to the rear, and strong light flashlights guided by subsequent entry aircraft, etc.

These equipment were big bags, with parachutes hanging. A few people worked together to push these things down, and then, holding their heads, jumped down from the cabin door one by one.

Below is their motherland.
