    On the afternoon of December 1, 1942, two outstanding soldiers of the Brandenburg Commando, Edim and Heisenberg, who were fighting in the Soviet Union, were called to a secret meeting.  Free e-book download (

    They were sitting in a conference room with eighty-three other paratroopers.  Everyone was talking in low voices, not knowing what was going on.  A captain walked into the conference room and all the paratroopers stood up and stood at attention.  He walked to the front of the conference room and ordered everyone to sit down.

    "Good afternoon! First of all, I want to congratulate all of you here. You have been hand-picked to be the best soldiers among us. You have been selected to carry out a highly confidential and extremely important mission. I am Captain Dorn, and on this occasion  I will be your commander during the operation."

    He stood up, spread out a large aerial photo, and pinned it to the wall behind him with several thumbtacks.  The photo shows a huge mountain fortress with some artillery deployed and several bunker-like buildings.  Heisenberg had never seen anything like it before.

    "This is Polpov, a fortress of strategic importance located in the mountains of Petrus, overlooking most of the front" Then, he added ominously: "It is considered  It is a very terrifying single fortress, even more difficult for infantry and tanks to deal with than the Maginot Line.¡±

    Heisenberg¡¯s heartbeat began to increase, and he felt that he was being dragged into an extremely dangerous situation

    "We believe that the garrison of the fortress is about 1,200 people. You will be outnumbered, but your advantage is a surprise attack!"

    The captain paused briefly: "As I said before, you are carefully selected soldiers with your own skills. Among you are seventy-four of the most capable soldiers in the army, including the Brandenburg Assault  The team's two commandosare also joined by five demolition experts, three medics and three communications specialists."

    He pointed to the huge armored roof of the fortress and said: "This is the landing point for your parachute landing. When you land, this should be guarded. This is a good landing area."

    The captain pointed to several armored turrets equipped with artillery.  There are no hatches or other entrances into the tops of these turrets.  Then.  He pointed to the large number of artillery and anti-tank guns in the fortress.  "This is why you were sent to attack this fortress. As long as these 200mm and 20mm guns are still in Soviet hands, the commandos cannot launch an effective attack. In short, the entire commando invasion operation depends on this raid.  , you must not miss."

    He reached into a wooden box that had been placed on the table and took out a submachine gun.  "This is an MP40 submachine gun"

    The captain put the MP40 back into the wooden box and took out a small black pistol with a silencer installed on the barrel.  "This is a Walter pp pistol equipped with a silencer. It also uses a 9mm submunition. The effective range is about fifty meters."

    Next.  He raised another flamethrower.  The fuel barrel is shaped like a round lifebuoy.  "This is a backpack flamethrower, also known as the Type 40 flamethrower. Its effective range is 36 meters, and the fuel can last for two minutes. It is recommended that you spray for 10 seconds each time, so that you can use it twelve times  . You will be equipped with twenty flamethrowers."

    Then.  The captain picked up a cone.  "This is a hollow charge. The fuse installed on it is the same as the S24 grenade, except that the burning time has been extended to 10 seconds" He pointed to the armored turret in the photo and said: "  This bomb is magnetic, place it on the armored turret, pull the fuse, and then you hide at a safe distance. This bomb can blow through the turret and kill twenty of you.  Each person is equipped with two bombs, and each of the five explosives experts is equipped with two bombs."

    "Each of you is equipped with an MP40, a Walther PP pistol with a silencer, and two S24 grenades. Soldiers who do not carry flamethrowers or hollow charges will carry more grenades and bombs."

    Heisenberg raised his hand

    The captain pointed at Heisenberg.  Asked: "Corporal, do you have a question?"

    "I'm sorry, sir, but I am a sniper. If I bring my own carbine, the combat effectiveness will be higher."

    The captain told the entire room: "I know that many of you are skilled in the use of various weapons. Some weapons are too heavy and not suitable for this operation. Usually, the commando team will parachute the weapons box at the same time as you parachute."  , However, since this operation emphasizes the accuracy of landing, this method will not be used this time. Special weapon bags will be sewn on your military uniforms and you can carry weapons with you. "

    After the battle plan was announced, the commandos were given a few hours to discuss with each other the details of the attack.

    Heisenberg's order was to cooperate with other snipers to suppress the enemy troops in the barracks and kill any sentries who might be outside the barracks.  edimThe orders received were the same as Heisenberg's.  Commandos are soldiers who are issued multiple grenades and bombs.

    The commandos were taken to a simulated fortress.  The replica fortress is astonishingly detailed and looks almost exactly like what the commandos saw in the photos.  The commandos trained again and again.  In order to increase the number of daily exercises, the commandos replaced parachutes with specially designed gliders.  Every day, commandos climbed into gliders with full gear, glided onto rooftops, practiced planting explosives and launching attacks at locations where resistance was expected.  The commandos used empty bags and simulated grenades and explosives.  Some infantrymen took refuge in the fort and acted as Belgian defenders.  The commandos practiced at least ten times a day until the invasion was launched on December 6.  Everyone knew every room, every door, every passage in the fortress.

    The commando team was waiting and listening to the news At midnight on December 6, the commando team was woken up and learned that the operation had begun and that the commando team would immediately go into battle.

    Very soon, the commandos put on special military uniforms.  There is a long zippered compartment on the back of the military uniform, and the MP40 submachine gun is installed inside.  A holster is also worn on the belt to hold the Walter pp pistol, and the silencer is stored in a pouch next to the holster.

    The commando team was also issued a special case bag containing eight MP40 submachine gun cases and four pistol cases.  A commando-style dagger was sheathed next to his boot.

    At 3 a.m., the commandos took off on a plane and flew towards Belgium.  The predetermined plan was that the commandos would descend when it became light enough to see the tops of the buildings in the fortress.  Edim and Heisenberg were both worried, and the commandos shook each other's hands.

    "See you on the ground!" Edim said.

    "Heisenberg will be there. Be careful not to get shot, Edim!"

    ¡°Remember rule number one.¡±

    "I remember!"

    Captain Dorn turned around and said to the paratroopers: "The commandos will fly over the target area within 5 minutes. Everyone, be prepared. Remember to cut off your parachutes after landing to make room for your comrades behind you."

    Heisenberg took out the pendant that had been hanging around his neck, opened it and looked at the photos of his wife and son.  Heisenberg closed the pendant, kissed the cool metal cover, and tucked it back under his shirt again.  A few minutes later, the hatch opened and the paratroopers jumped out of the cabin in a single file.  Heisenberg put on his goggles and jumped out.  For a moment, Heisenberg panicked because it was pitch dark below.  Then he saw the fortress on the ground, and a line of parachutes was falling towards it.  Heisenberg maneuvered the parachute and floated in that direction.

    "This is all unbelievable!" Heisenberg thought.  The fortress is getting closer.  Eighty-five paratroopers appeared quietly and ghostly over the fortress.

    Immediately, the commandos began to land.  Just as planned, the paratroopers landed quickly and released their parachutes.  One by one, the commandos landed on top of the massive concrete fortress.

    As Heisenberg approached the roof, the silence of the night was broken by shouts in Russian.  Heisenberg knew the commandos had been discovered.  Gunshots quickly erupted all around.

    Heisenberg finally touched the ground.  After running a few steps forward, Heisenberg stopped and released his parachute.  The morning breeze blew open the parachute on the ground.  Edim landed behind Heisenberg and completed his intended maneuver.

    Heisenberg saw several paratroopers rush to the edge of the roof and fire fiercely below.  Some skirmishers jumped from the edge and landed on the top floor, where several armored turrets were installed.

    ¡°Get out of the way!¡± they shouted from below.  After a few seconds, the hollow charges exploded one after another.  Heisenberg saw smoke from the explosion billowing into the night sky.

    Edim and Heisenberg arrived at the designated location as planned and controlled the entrances to the four barracks.  Heisenberg saw muzzle flashes coming from the doors and doors of the barracks, and the enemy in the barracks finally responded.

    Heisenberg took out his MP40 submachine gun, put it in a box, and started shooting at the flash of the muzzle.

    More paratroopers descended to the roof, and Edim and Heisenberg continued shooting at the barracks below.  Heisenberg heard a shot hit the wall next to Heisenberg and was fired.  The commandos lay on the ground, using the stone roof as cover to avoid the Russian soldiers.

    Two German soldiers lying on the ground quietly touched the door of the two barracks, and they both threw a grenade into the door at the same time.

    A few seconds later, the grenade exploded with two loud bangs, accompanied by screams.

    Heisenberg and Ellis aimed at the door of the barracks, shot a whole box of bullets with MP40, and then reloaded.  Another soldier got up and threw a grenade through the door of the barracks.  There was another loud noise, and many screams came from the barracks.

    Heisenberg picked up the MP40 and swiped it towards the door.

    ??Now, German paratroopers were everywhere.  Several more grenades were thrown into several other barracks, and the air was filled with the sound of gunfire and the explosion of grenades.
