The tactics of the federal army's sound attacks from east to west have obviously achieved good results. After entering the Norman Empire, they did not encounter enemy flying objects. Of course, in this era without radar, on such a night, they wanted to find this Federal Army flying ship that did not make any damage and drive. It was technically difficult. According to the pre-planned route, they carefully avoided the enemy's big cities and shuttled through the mountains, rivers and rivers. Looking down from the sky, the Norman Empire's mountains, rivers, lakes and villages and towns were no obvious difference from the Ulster Free Federation, but a few hours later, the scenery below the flying ship turned into a shimmering water surface, as if they came to the sea far away from the mainland. Weiss had carefully studied the geographical terrain of the Norman Empire and knew that it was their largest fresh water.

The lake, called Lake St. Martha by the Normans, is regarded as the source of life for the Norman people. In this area, a huge freshwater lake close to the size of Lorraine, is located at its northern end, and at its western and eastern ends there are many large cities of millions, including the industrial centers that the Normans are proud of. If the transport ship is not carrying soldiers of the Secret Service, but terrible bombs, or even fatal pollution chemicals, then tonight will be a wonderful successful raid, and may even cause a fatal blow to the enemy's heart, even if the ship has no possibility of returning to the Federation, which should be a worthy action at the time of the Federal Army's most sinister situation, but for some reason, the Federal Army did not do this, or they tried it, but failed.

Weiss is not affiliated with the aviation force, and he cannot dig into the problem so much. He only hopes that this operation can achieve the goal as expected - this transport ship should not be discovered by the enemy from entering to returning. In fact, more than half of the load of this transport ship is now used to carry fuel. It uses a hybrid power of oil-fired boiler and diesel engine. When it is necessary to fly at high speed, it uses oil-fired boiler to operate at full load, and when it is cruised at low speed or needs to break through the enemy's cordon, it can use diesel engines with less noise and smoke exhaust to fly at medium and low speeds, which is a very good combination.

After breaking through the enemy's front line, the transport ship has converted its power and flew at a higher cruise speed. If the enemies they really encountered during the operation are flying ships, it needs to do its best to get rid of the enemy's pursuit. If they encounter faster combat aircraft, the officers and soldiers need to use a few air defense weapons to fight, but from past experience, this kind of struggle has mostly achieved the expected results.

Considering the concealment and safety of the operation and his special skills, Weiss stayed in the command room all night and was on duty with the officers. Every quarter of an hour or 20 minutes, he had to use his special skills to observe the surrounding environment and explore whether there were enemy aircraft approaching. When they approached the target area, Weiss found an enemy transport ship in front of him. The task of the transport ship should not be a guard patrol, but he still notified Major Harleggs immediately. At this time, the major was holding a telescope and had not found the enemy's traces. He was very surprised, but because his position was far away from the front line and was in the hinterland of the Norman Empire.

, it can even be said to be deep in the hinterland. If the enemy is discovered here, even if the transport ship can exert all the speed it designed, and even perform overload output for a period of time, it will be difficult to escape the Normans' siege. Therefore, they cautiously slow down the speed, lower the altitude, and use the environment to hide their bodies. Of course, the most important thing is that they can wipe out their smoke traces as much as possible - the oil-fired boiler used by this transport ship is originally less smoke than the coal-fired boiler. In order to speed up the spread of smoke in the air, some additional mixture is added when exhausting smoke. Soon after the ship flies, the smoke discharged from the chimney will fade away.

The enemy transport ship did not go straight, and it adjusted its course in the air, and it seemed that it needed to fly over here. Looking at the enemy's trajectory, Weiss couldn't help but raise his heart to his throat: Don't make any mistakes on the way to go!

The enemy's transport ship was getting closer and closer, as if he had discovered the movement, and adjusted the course again. At this time, the commander ordered the boiler to adjust to the minimum power output. In this state, the smoke from the chimney is actually not much more than the smoke from the small workshop or ordinary families when cooking. However, in the middle of the night, which workshop will start working? Which family can cook? If the enemy carefully observes the ground, they may still find some clues.

To ensure safety, the commander ordered the warship to land temporarily on the ground. Weiss saw through his special vision a small Norman village not far away. If the residents there got up earlier or if someone couldn't sleep, they would probably see the big guy landing. Fortunately, this situation did not seem to have happened. The sparse starlight shone on the quiet earth, and everything was sleeping soundly, and the Norman town was no exception. Time passed by minute by minute, and waiting was so painful. Fortunately, the Norman transport ship finally flew past the nearby village. When it flew past the village in sight, it probably found something. It turned on the searchlight, the searchlight column swept across the village, and swept a few times in the nearby woods, but did not extend here.

Thank God! Weiss sighed silently in his heart. The enemy ship flew away. After a while, the major ordered to continue moving forward. Such delays were delayed for at least half an hour, but they could still accept this half hour.

The sky turns white and the world returns to light. After a night of rapid progress, although I saw the outline of the ground and the shadows of mountains, rivers, these are blurry scenes. When the sky got brighter, the mysterious Norman Empire finally appeared in front of them. Weiss stood in front of the porthole and looked at everything here with curiosity. If you want to say anything, then the land of the Norman Empire seemed more steep and beautiful than the frozen Kingdom of Wessex and the vast and fertile Ulster Free Federation. The mountains here stretched out, and there were rushing rivers between the valleys, and the banks of the river were lush.

The vegetation of onion. Only by flying over the stretching mountains can you see a large open area. In the territory of the Norman Empire, there are many undeveloped areas, and more are orderly human activities. The fields here, regardless of whether the terrain is regular or not, are always divided into neat grids by rows of trees. In this season, the fields have not started to be cultivated, but it can be seen that all the land has been leveled and can be planted on a large scale as long as the weather turns warmer. Many trees are planted around their towns, which are more planned and modern than ordinary towns in the federal state.

As a modern industrial country, the Norman Empire's land was crisscrossed with railways and developed road networks. Even in very remote areas, the connection to the outside world is relatively convenient. In some slightly larger towns, chimneys are lined with chimneys, showing the booming momentum of the industrial era, and in those quiet and quiet small villages, regular roads and some agricultural vehicles can be seen. This means that the Normans have broken away from traditional farming and entered the industrial era with relatively developed productivity.

Speaking of national industrial strength, people all think that the Ulster Free Federation is the strongest - their free market is full of vitality, has strong liquidity, and is also top-notch in scientific and technological strength. However, when it comes to per capita industrial contribution, it has advantages and disadvantages compared with centralized countries like the Norman Empire. However, these cannot be seen from the data of the country's industrial announcements. It is necessary to observe and study on the spot to make accurate judgments. In sight, the Norman factories look very modern, and in the Federation, like the previous Klumberheisen factory, which is traditionally dominated by manpower and machinery, and the workshop-style factories that are supplemented by machinery still exist in relatively remote towns and villages. What really brings industrial impetus to this country is a super oligopolis like the Grumman Group, whose large-scale production has brought considerable industrial output value...

The sky became brighter and brighter, and the chance of exposure was increasing rapidly, and the mood became anxious. At this time, the navigator finally found the last reference object in his sight, a spearhead-shaped mountain top. The valley on the west side of the top of the mountain was the landing point of the transport ship.

"We're finally here!" Weiss turned his head and said to Octavell, who had been taking a nap for several hours.

"You go and have a rest!"

Weiss shook his head: "Not bad for these few hours."

So they stood shoulder to shoulder in front of the porthole, watching the valley get closer and closer. It was a valley filled with fog. The situation here made Weiss remember a movie he had seen many years ago, "Mist", where the thick fog contained terrible unknown creatures. Of course, he didn't need to worry about these things now. Through his special vision, whether there are enemies ambushing in the valley and whether there are any dangers, it is clear at a glance, and more importantly, this can help their transport ships land safely in an environment with bad sight.

The moment the transport ship landed, the aviation officers in the command room breathed a sigh of relief, and the major said to Weiss with respect: "It is hard to imagine that a person with outstanding eyesight than Hawkeye would stay in the army. If we could come to our aviation force, we would definitely have won a great victory in the battle with the Normans!"

Weiss didn't know how to reply to this sentence, and he had considered it, but for some personal thoughts and considerations, he did not actively expose his abilities. If he had not joined the aviation force, it would not be a bad thing to think about it now. If the aviation force had not suffered too much loss, it would not have stimulated the rapid rise of the Federal Flight Force. After all, this world must be supported by technology!

"I believe that everyone has their own destiny. Wherever they go, what will they do, and what will happen in the future? It is all destined." Weiss used this sentence full of Buddhist philosophy to perfunctorily treat the past. In fact, no one knows whether what he has done is that Feng has a better choice, because everything is the past tense and there is no assumption possibility of if.

The transport ship landed on solid ground, the crew quickly moved, and the soldiers of the special service team came to help. According to the original plan, they used the surrounding plants to temporarily disguise the transport ship, making it look like a mountain bag. In order to achieve the expected effect, they prepared the ropes early and disguised the chimney as a big tree for a moment, and all this was done in less than an hour.

When everyone was busy, Weiss boosted his spirits and conducted a large-scale observation of the valley. There was no enemy mother team in the valley, but there were a small number of dangerous creatures that were operating alone, and they were not sure whether they were enemy soldiers or lonely beasts. The straight distance of the valley was about 80 miles from the target town. This distance could ensure that the enemy would not observe the activities of this transport ship. At the same time, the special service soldiers could use light vehicles such as motorcycles to conduct reconnaissance near the town, and survey the route to the future and wait for the vital night.

Although the soldiers of the Secret Service did not have special abilities like Weiss, they had rich combat experience and reasonable combat skills. Their reconnaissance ability, battlefield infiltration and battlefield assault capabilities were all first-class. Under the command of Octavere, they scattered, set up cordons around, and conducted reconnaissance in the direction of the target town.

He stayed in the command room all night and kept observing the enemy situation. Weiss was indeed tired. He found a hammock and fell asleep almost in a second. However, because he was hung up in his heart, he did not dare to sleep for too long, and he got up after more than an hour. After breakfast, drinking strong tea, he returned to the command room with energy. He looked out of the command room and stood on the observation deck and looked at it. The fog in the valley had dissipated a lot. Although there were some red frames representing dangerous objects here, they looked carefully all of them. In such a country with high industrial level, a valley with wild animals was indeed very, very remote town, probably like a paradise, with little contact with the outside world, which meant a high degree of security, and also a high degree of closure and self-construction.

Weiss was about to find Octavier when he suddenly heard gunfire in the valley, which made the atmosphere very tense. After observation and understanding, it was discovered that it was an attack by a wild beast that was rarely seen in the Ulster Free Federation. The beast that the soldier shot and killed was a gunshot, but he himself was also injured. In view of this, Octavier adjusted his defense deployment and asked the soldiers to guard against a group of three or four to avoid dispersed actions and prevent similar situations from happening.

The sudden gunfire reminded everyone. When it was night, the surrounding guard posts had to be shrunk. In the original plan, there was a route to transfer the rescue target to this valley to board the ship. With these beasts, the route seemed not very safe. They had to look for open unmanned areas near the target town for the response, and the stay should not be too long. Once discovered by the enemy, the situation may become very troublesome.

From early morning to noon, Weis spent his first morning in the Norman Empire. Apart from emotional factors, nothing special was different. During this half day, he had been exploring and watching around for more than an hour of rest. Of course, the most important thing was to warn whether there were enemies within the visible range. As a result, there were neither enemy aircraft nor troops nearby, but he discovered signs of Norman civilian activities in his sight for the first time. Norman civilians were in his special sight.

Will Yeli be red or white? This is a question that made him particularly curious. It is said that the two sides are in two different camps and are in a state of war. Ordinary people should also have red virtual boxes, but what Weis saw was a white virtual box, which means that their attitude towards federal soldiers was neutral. In other words, if they encountered federal soldiers head-on, they would not take the initiative to act force under normal circumstances! Could it be that the martial spirit of the Norman Empire was just an illusion?

Weiss' speculation and thinking about this strange phenomenon, because it may have some important impact on their actions. At noon, the first group of soldiers who went out to reconnaissance returned to the valley, and they expanded the scope of the reconnaissance to thirty or forty miles away, and to a place where they could already see the target town from afar. They said that the town was located on the shore of the lake, and it was a very beautiful place and looked like a fairyland.
