The winter did not change and warm because of the temporary ceasefire between Germany and the Soviet Union. Instead, it was even more blizzards and the temperature became even colder.

However, the special forces of the Flying Leopard Special Forces also tried every means to penetrate the dense and snowy forests, and they passed many Soviet patrols.

Of course, the main reason is that the weather is too cold and it is late at night, so the patrols of the Soviet army are not as vigilant as they are usually sunny and there are many people dispatched.

In other words, there are not many Soviet troops who can conduct a certain degree of strict inspection, and they are still evacuating from the rear.

Leningrad and its capital St. Petersburg are both located in northwest Russia, along the Baltic Sea coast, and the Neva River estuary is also nearby, so the German army can only surround it on three sides, not all sides.

It is because of this that the Soviet Baltic Fleet and the British and American aircraft carrier fleets were able to support the battle in Leningrad.

However, the target of these Flying Leopard Special Forces was that the Soviet army set up in Tihvin on the periphery of Leningrad, because according to the latest intelligence from German intelligence agencies, the Soviet army set up a relatively large ammunition storage and food storage there.

In fact, in June 1941, the German army launched a blitzkrieg against the Soviet army. The army led by German Field Marshal von Libo once fought to the city of St. Petersburg, the capital of Leningrad.

In addition, the entire Leningrad was besieged according to Hitler's orders, and all the contacts between the people inside and the outside world were cut off from land transportation, including Leningrad's airspace superiority, which was also controlled by the German air force.

We were preparing to starve everyone in Leningrad to death in this way to capture Leningrad, but the German army and Hitler dreamed that the Soviet army would rely solely on the only place where they could contact and obtain supplies from the rear was Lake Ladoga.

Moreover, even if the transportation route established by the Soviet army on this lake was often sank by German bombers, many transport ships were still unable to prevent the Soviet army from transporting a large number of food, weapons, equipment, ammunition and medical supplies to Leningrad.

Although Model can still control the three sides of the periphery of Leningrad, the original troops stationed here were also killed by the Soviet army, so when Model's army arrived here to take over, the Soviet army had already recovered some places.

Therefore, the areas that the Germans can occupy in Leningrad's peripheral positions are not as high as the war began.

Therefore, the fierce battle of the Leningranovgorod campaign launched by the Soviet army was completely beyond Model's expectations.

So this time the target of these Flying Leopard special forces was Tihvin. The reason why they thought that after von Libo failed to succeed in his last general attack, they turned to Tihvin. They hoped to cut off all the supply lines of Leningrad after occupying it, so that Leningrad would truly cut off external aid and lack food and all support items.

Of course, even if Tihvin was occupied by the German army, the Soviet army could still solve the problem of transporting food, weapons and equipment, as well as ammunition by building a highway from Zaborier Railway Station to the north and bypassing Tihvin to No. 1 Ladoga. The road is more than 200 kilometers long, but there is a section in the middle of it that is the waters on the shore of Lake Ladoga.

Moreover, according to the decades of observations of Lake Ladoga by lighthouse guard Sukho Zakharov, he pointed out that the entire lake surface of Lake Ladoga will not freeze, but the lake area along the lake is frozen every year, and its thickness is enough to support the free passage of people and vehicles.

Therefore, as long as the Soviet troops can protect the passage to the south bank of Lake Radogal, various materials, weapons, equipment, and ammunition of the Soviet army can be transported to Leningrad through transport vehicles.

If you are afraid of bombing the German air force, the Soviet air force can still dispatch planes for escort transportation.

Therefore, in order to truly cut off the peripheral transportation routes in Leningrad, this time these Flying Leopard special forces will not only destroy Tihvin, but also find ways to seize the area around the highway in Shin Ladoga and control the Soviet army's transportation routes.

At a post office outside the east gate of Tihewen City, several fully armed Soviet soldiers wearing thick clothes were standing guard with some machine gunners who were controlling machine guns.

Three Soviet troops holding rifles and two machine gunners were in the same location, with a total of six machine gun strongholds.

Of course, three secret sentinels were set up nearby. As long as there was an enemy situation and these secret sentinels were discovered, he only needed to fire a gun, and all the machine gunners and infantry at the sentinel points would immediately fire and shoot.

At the same time, they will immediately communicate to their base camp and ask the support troops to come.

"Fortunately, it was a blizzard. If it weren't for the fact that I really didn't know how many people would die in this battle!"

The short and fat Soviet soldier Yegor pulled his clothes tightly while chanting the cold air.

"Yes! Many people really died in the battle just now. The regiment I belonged to only fought less than one company of troops left, and there were also many wounded soldiers mixed in it!"

Soviet soldier Maxim also responded with the heating.

"It was all caused by those damn German troops. These devils should all die! If they had not invaded, how could we have fought for no reason and how could we have suffered so many casualties!"

Soviet soldier Stepan also interrupted angrily.

However, as soon as his voice fell, before the other Soviet soldiers could answer, his eyes were attracted by a well-equipped Soviet army that suddenly appeared in the distance.

In addition to him, other Soviet soldiers, including those machine gunners, were also attracted by the weapons and neat military postures of this unknown Soviet army at the same time.

But they were also highly vigilant, and they all held their rifles and machine guns tightly, ready to enter the battle at any time, including those secret whistles.

"What kind of force is that? Which general's force?"

The short and fat Soviet soldier Yegor looked at the mysterious Soviet troops getting closer and closer, and immediately said nervously and uneasy to the Soviet soldier Maxim beside him.

"Who knows! When they come in front of them, they will know that the snowflakes outside are so big, and it is impossible to see which army their military uniform number belongs to!"

Soviet soldier Maxim said with a nervous look on his face.

"It's not the German army!"

The short and fat Soviet soldier Yegor said worriedly.

"It shouldn't be! The military uniforms they were wearing were ours, but I just don't know which army came over the soldiers!"

Soviet soldier Maxim replied.

"Okay! Don't talk too much. All of you are aiming at these people for me. If it is an enemy or a suspicious force, attack them immediately!"

At this moment, the platoon leader Ivanovich, behind them, warned.
