Second Lieutenant Gale retracted his thoughts and focused his attention again on the Allied forward observation post in front of him. He pointed at several warning ropes pulled up by the US military a few meters in front of him. On them were tied the empty food left by some American soldiers. There are some small stones in the can, which will make a sound when touched. <-> These are just some gadgets randomly arranged by the US military. Of course, this kind of thing is most effective at night.
Bohr whispered: "We can touch it carefully without touching these little traps."
Second Lieutenant Gale shook his head and said: "It's not conducive for us to move now. Let's move at night! Bohr, you and Ludev stay here and carefully observe the interval, route and number of patrols on the opposite side! I suspect there must be a minefield here. , Bohr and Ludev, you are both veterans, you must observe carefully and record it!"
"Yes, Second Lieutenant Gale!" Bohr and Ludev's eyes were very firm.
"Very good! After the mission is over, I will definitely apply for medals for you! Now, the other brothers and I will go do another thing!" Before leaving, Second Lieutenant Gale still felt uneasy and warned again. : "Brother, you must pay attention to concealment!"<
Bohr and Ludev did not speak, but nodded.
Horn and Carlo at the checkpoint knew nothing about the situation outside. Carlo, who came back from smoking, said to Horn: "I smoked a cigarette. It's so damn refreshing!"
Horn said: "Actually, what I need most right now is a cup of steaming coffee and a steaming steak." As he spoke, his eyes could not help but be filled with yearning.
Carlo shouted: "My God, you know, you must know! Are you trying to seduce me on purpose? These are my two favorite things!"
Horn snorted and said, "Actually, you also like the same thing!"
Carlo asked suspiciously: "What?"
"It's better to have a scantily clad blonde sitting on your lap and having dinner with you!" Horn replied.
Carlo's eyes flashed, but then darkened, and he sighed: "Okay, my dear Mr. Horn! Although these are indeed my favorites, what I need more now is a warm house to stay in. This place is freezing my balls, even if there are ten women here. I can't turn on the fire!"
Horn laughed when he heard this. Just as the two people were joking in a low voice, a group of about a dozen American soldiers lined up in column, turning left and right along a strange route and walked toward the observation post.
Carlo had sharp eyes and said to Horn: "Second Lieutenant Alderson's patrol is here!"
The team quickly arrived at the outpost. Lieutenant Alderson, who was leading the team, saw Carlo and the two rubbing their hands together and stomping their feet on the ground from the cold. He couldn't help but feel distressed, these were his own soldiers.
Second Lieutenant Alderson said with concern: "When I turn around, I'll ask the next patrol to bring you two thick military cloaks, so you can put them on to keep you warm!"
Carlo and Horn suddenly felt a warm current in their hearts, and they immediately forgot all about the fact that they had always resented Lieutenant Alderson for calling them to the outpost for duty. Carlo and Horn said: "Thank you, Lieutenant Alderson!"
Second Lieutenant Alderson waved his hand to say it was not important, and then asked: "Did you notice anything unusual?"
"Report to Lieutenant Commander Alderson. Everything is business as usual here!"
Second Lieutenant Alderson nodded slightly and said, "Well, please pay attention to the situation and don't be careless! We are not sure whether these little German fleas will jump out and bite us!"
Carlo said with a look of assurance: "Sir! As long as we are here, the Germans can't even think of taking advantage of us!"
Carlo¡¯s big words aroused laughter from others, and someone joked: ¡°Private Carlo, let¡¯s do this. I¡¯ll leave the responsibility of being on duty at the observation post to you in the future!¡±
Carlo jumped up when he heard this. He cursed at the comrade who was speaking: "Do you want me to strangle you to death?" <
All joking aside, the patrol quickly left under the leadership of Second Lieutenant Alderson. Turn to the next patrol point. Carlo and Horn were left in this lonely observation post. Horn asked Carlo: "How long will it take for the next wave of patrols to get here?"
Carlo thought for a moment and said, "About fifteen minutes!"
??
Horn turned his neck boredly, and suddenly felt the cold wind pouring in a lot of air-conditioning down his neck. He shivered and felt very uncomfortable. He raised his eyes and looked in front of him, &Second Lieutenant Gale told the story, and finally said: "How do we get through the minefield?"
Second Lieutenant Gale frowned after hearing this, and then said: "I will clear the obstacles in front! You follow my route! When you get close to the American soldiers in the checkpoint, it will be up to you two, Klein and Du Pei, to kill them! Pay attention. Try not to let them find out!"
Bohr didn¡¯t want Second Lieutenant Gale to take risks, so he rushed to say: ¡°Second Lieutenant Gale, let me clear the obstacles in front!¡±<
Lieutenant Gale flatly refused: "Execute the order!"
Under the cover of the dark night and endless trees, Second Lieutenant Gale crawled forward cautiously. With the help of the faint starlight, he used skillful movements from time to time to clear the small obstacles set up by the US military during the day, which were hidden in remote corners of the advance route. The landmines were also marked out by Lieutenant Gale using a mine detector. The subordinates who followed Lieutenant Gale carefully could not help but admire him. He was indeed the best ace soldier standing at the top of Germany.
Just as Second Lieutenant Gale continued to move forward, there was a sudden "pop!" gunshot, and a flare was fired into the sky. Suddenly half of the sky was illuminated brightly, and then a machine gun at the US military observation post in front suddenly opened fire, "Da!" Ta da~, da da da~" The gunfire lasted for a short while and then stopped shooting.
Second Lieutenant Gale was startled by the gunfire. Several bullets hit the open space in front of him, almost making him jump up and run back. However, many years of war experience told him that the US military did not actually Finding themselves, they were just conducting routine defensive fire at suspicious targets at night. After Second Lieutenant Gale waited for the gunshots to stop, he waited for a moment, and when he saw no movement from the US military, he continued to move forward. At this time, Second Lieutenant Gale was less than thirty meters away from the US military's forward observation post.
Carlo and Horn operated their machine guns and scanned some suspicious trees and terrain. When they saw that there was no movement, they were relieved. Horn breathed a sigh of relief and said: "It seems that today has finally passed safely!" (To be continued.)
