An hour before dark, at the exit of the "Sanctuary" base, Lin En stood beside the cold rocks in a military uniform. He looked at his submarines one by one after another, and the natural fjord had already been conducted in detail. Captains who often conducted close-range airworthiness training could drive the submarines out with their eyes closed. They saw that they quickly dived after entering the fjord, basically only retaining a small periscope on the water surface. From a distance, they looked like groups of water snakes swimming towards the outer sea. Their dark bodies were not seen on the water surface, leaving only strange mysterious ripples quietly spreading around...

"Sir!"

"Sir!"

The two officers who followed the sound were dressed in uniforms specially prepared for the night battle environment. Walking in front was the former commander of the first team of the "Vampire" Night Battle Commando, Colonel Lovin Bruns, the current commander of the night battle battalion of the Imperial Guards. Walking behind was the former commander of the third team. He had participated in the raid of Los Amos, and Lieutenant Colonel Karenni Braz, the current deputy commander of the Night Battle Battalion. These two were old acquaintances to Lynn, and were also old subordinates of Laurenz Bahr.

They are still new recruits from the "Vampire" commando. The two are already the mainstay of the combat troops, and each achieved outstanding results in an extremely difficult and dangerous environment on the East-West Front. Although they were nominally their temporary superiors, Lin Neng still called them "supervisors" and used honorific "you", and they never had the attitude of being suppressed in their words. The more this happened, the more harmonious the relationship between the two special operations commanders and Lin Neng was, and the officers and soldiers of the combat battalion were now full of affection for Lin Neng.

Lynn turned around and said calmly: "Everyone is ready?"

Colonel Bruns was only about 1.7 meters tall, with a wide body and thick limbs, which was very consistent with the image of a German barbarian warrior before the Middle Ages. However, he did not like to grow a beard, and always kept his face clean and even his hair was meticulous. At the age of forty, he looked in his early thirties. He was ready to rub his hands and said, "I have been waiting for almost a year, and everyone can't wait for a vigorous battle. It doesn't matter life or death, but only for supreme honor."

Lin En smiled heartily and reminded: "It is good to have such a spirit, but the pace of climbing honor has just taken a new step. The road ahead is still long... We must try our best to keep a useful body and return to the European continent to achieve a new career in the future!"

"That's certain." Bruns responded with a smile.

As for Braz, Lynn's old friend, after returning to the base from North America, he received a promotion to the military level and a reward of a sword cross. Although it was not as "changing" as the reward Linn received, he took a solid step, not to mention that he was not a person who was greedy for power. Now half a year has passed since the extraordinary Los Amos raid, and as he is about to appear again, Braz's emotions are also full of excitement, but his words still maintain his inherent calmness: "Don't worry, sir, and the Night Battle Camp are all experienced veterans. How to fight such a battle can be done? The officers and soldiers can do it. Our current mental and equipment conditions are much better than at this time a year ago, and they have the suddenness of combat. It should be very smooth to annihilate the Soviet troops in one fell swoop."

Lynn smiled and took the cigarette handed over by Braz. Affected by the rigorous search of Soviet aircraft and ships in northern Norway, the base has been suspended from receiving supplies from the outside for some time, but this has not had a fundamental impact on the daily supply of tens of thousands of soldiers and civilians. With its strong financial reserves, in the past year after the war, Lynn, Andri and others' trip to Europe was not unique. The reconstruction and expansion of the North American intelligence network, the consolidation and construction of the South American base,

All of them invested more than tens of millions of pounds. Especially in Chile, Argentina and German immigrant settlements in South America, the organizers of the empire used the surplus equipment of the United States to build a large number of factories and organized German workers to conduct secret quasi-military training. They easily ensured the supply of materials at the base with hidden shipping, and even transported hundreds of fanatical and staunch supporters, which enabled the Imperial Guards to gain initial personnel expansion.

Each lit cigarettes, and the three of them looked at the ice field in the northwest. As dark was approaching, the Soviet advance troops set up camp, which was not a negative manifestation. They set up temporary camps, used telephone lines and radios to maintain close contact with the landing command and fleet, and then sent smaller patrols to set up guard posts nearby, forming a steadily advancing. At their current speed of advancement, they could stand in the current position of Lynn and others at most every day.

Even if the external camouflage of the base is good, it is impossible to avoid close reconnaissance and search. During these two days, various plans started from the outside were proceeding in an orderly manner. News of the Soviet army invading Norwegian territorial waters and implementing landings have spread widely. The incident of the "Europa" cruise ship and the British light cruiser being attacked by submarines were also promoted simultaneously. The Nordic and even the continental region has already developed large-scale panic, and people are worried that the facts are as reported by some media.

——The powerful Soviet Red Army attacked the westward in early spring. They will follow the strategic steps of the Third Reich, first occupying Norway to obtain pedals to the North Sea and the Atlantic Ocean, isolating the connection between Europe and the Americas with submarines and aircraft, and then sweeping West Germany with steel torrents. The Low Countries and France have been entering the Bay of Biscay, and even launched a cross-strait landing operation before the United States completed its military mobilization, thus planting the red flag throughout Europe. Although in 1946, the Soviet Union was still far from it.

Some people recovered from the losses of the world war, but Western countries spared no effort to slander and vilify the Soviet Union for more than 20 years, and the deliberate misleading of some media in the past six months made it easy for people to believe in this speculation that is mostly imagined. However, the speed of the situation is as Lynn worried, which is not enough to quickly withdraw troops from northern Norway. There are even signs that the Soviet military is gathering subsequent landing troops and a large amount of supplies at the northern ports.

Looking up at the sky where the light was gradually dimming, Lin Neng's mood finally felt a little nervous before taking the stage. He looked at his colleagues who were both promoted from low-level officers to school officials step by step, and reminded and confirmed: "Once the battle begins, be sure to advance forward unswervingly, completely breaking the enemy's meridians and blood vessels like a bayonet, and turning them into a useless body without action or resistance!"

After smoking the cigarette, there was not much time before departure. The two officers wore velvet gloves specially issued for cold belt combat. If the officers and soldiers of the National Defense Forces could have generally obtained such a configuration in the cold winter of 1941, the imperial flag might have been planted on the top of Moscow and then returned westward to force Britain to withdraw from the war. Unfortunately, all this could only be left in imagination. The imperial elites who survived the war and the trial of the Allied, such as Manstein, Guderian, and Kesselin, were trapped in the prisons of the Allied forces. In contrast, Lynn and others could at least fight to change their destiny.

"Sir, I wish you a victory!" Colonel Bruns saluted and shook hands with Lynn.

During his thrilling trip to the United States, Braz saw Lynn's combat style. As a soldier or grassroots officer, his fierce style is worthy of recognition. However, as a commander, if he always rushed to the front line to command and coordinate the troops like Rommel, although he would be respected by his soldiers, he would also make the deputy and staff officers feel extremely troubled.

"Take care!" Braz said to Lynn with a serious expression as he shook hands.

"Okay!" Lin Neng gave an extremely brief answer. When the two officers walked along the passage towards the troops that were already on standby behind, he turned back to look at the fjord. The last batch of submarines had left. The ripples on the sea looked natural and not disturbed by humans. At this time, a slight roar came from the sky again. According to convention, Soviet aircraft deployed on the other side of the border would always fly to patrol after dawn and before dark.

In the past two days, they may also determine the exact location of their own ground troops and sea ships and give them back to the command center located behind. In the past two days, all kinds of clues may have made them increasingly feel that this seemingly deserted Norwegian territory has hidden secrets. Some of these were accidents that Rommel deliberately arranged, and some were accidents that were difficult to fully control in military operations, but as long as no one fell to the hands of the Soviet army, everything will be completely liquidated tonight.

As the designated time point is approaching, the communications station located in the upper floor of the base, technical officers have become the busiest group. As one of the core technologies determined to be retained in the "Aryan Square Boat Plan", radar radio related technologies have obtained a large amount of personnel and material investment. Based on the various lessons learned in the war, the Imperial radio experts have improved on several electrical equipment that have not had time to invest in actual combat. Coupled with relevant technical data and equipment components obtained by the intelligence department through multiple channels after the war, they have successfully developed large-scale detection and early warning radars and precise fire control radars, and made breakthroughs in the research of airborne radar combined with radio guidance, thus becoming the most significant field in the Imperial scientific research system.

In the control room with large floor-to-ceiling glass, technical experts and officers wearing white coats similar to medical staff perform their duties, and few people walk back and forth. Only one officer who seems to be less than thirty years old, fair and elegant, and wearing a pair of gold-edged glasses is closely monitoring the personnel and equipment. Although his epaulette is blocked by a white coat, the red collar seal and slender blade patterns allow insiders to recognize his identity as a technical general at a glance.

Placed on the clock on the front of the control room, the hour hand is very close to the number 7, and the minute hand has just passed 50.

"The power supply is stable, the backup motor is started, and the conversion port is connected." An officer sitting in front of various instruments and traffic light buttons reported loudly.

Another officer wearing glasses sat in front of two circular monitors. Three officers sat side by side one meter in front of him, each facing an instrument with similar size and different external structures and scale marks. The officer with glasses turned his head and reported to the young technical general: "The voltage of all components is normal, and the east direction is set to the zero-degree angle. After turning on the computer, the antenna array will start clockwise from the zero-degree angle. The rotation speed is six degrees per second, and the complete three hundred and sixty degrees per minute is turned, and the continuous operation is 1,080 degrees, and the working frequency is set to 120mhz. The power is turned on time after 3 minutes."

Everything was carried out according to the planned steps. The countless drills made the young general appear confident. He continued to pace without saying a word, raising his hand to look at his watch from time to time. In the control room diagonally opposite, the team responsible for controlling the radio interference equipment was nervous and orderly carrying out the same preparation work. Unlike the emerging radar technology before and after World War II, radio equipment appeared much earlier. The initial radio interference was very simple, which was to find the communication frequency used by the enemy and insert various chaotic signals, making it difficult for the other party to distinguish which ones were

The content of normal codes, which interferers deliberately joined, were used until the end of the war in 1945. Even the Soviet army, which was relatively weak in radio technology, had successfully used it on the Eastern Front. With the development of technology, dedicated radio reconnaissance receivers, lateral instruments and jammers were developed and manufactured. High-power radio transmitters can fill up specific frequencies in nearby areas, making ordinary radio stations completely unavailable for the duration and band, resulting in complete communication blockage.

In a special atmosphere that makes people feel nervous and slightly excited, time passes by minute by minute. In the sight of the observation post at the top, the sunset of early summer had already sunk into the sea, and the beautiful rays of light herald the arrival of a clear night. The aircraft that confirmed that the Soviet army's routine reconnaissance had left, the technical officer of the radar control room pulled the handgate, and under the joint drive of the two motors, the hemispherical camouflage mesh placed on the top of the communication station was slowly opened, thus allowing the strange-looking and huge radar antenna matrix to appear on the mountain rock without any barrier. This process similar to the operation of the observatory seems simple, but it embodies the prudence and intelligence of these technical elites who boarded the imperial boats better than ordinary people.

The cold and fresh air poured into the internal cavity along the aperture at the radar base. The young general wearing gold-rimmed glasses looked at the watch and turned his eyes to the phone near the gate. It did not ring, which also meant that the order to stop was not issued. Seeing that the time had come, he ordered in a calm tone: "Start 'Caesar'!"

The radar is not like a car, a tank or an airplane, and except for a few instruments making prompt sounds when working, there is basically no noise in the entire control room. The young general's eyes immediately turned to the middle-aged technical officer who was also wearing glasses. Green lines appeared on the two circular display screens in front of him.

Based on the line patterns on the display screen and the auxiliary readings of the instrument, the officer quickly made a judgment: "The Soviet reconnaissance aircraft is located 11 degrees northeastern, with a distance of 140 kilometers, with a flight altitude of about 1,000 meters, and is not threatened; those Soviet ships are located 12 degrees to 19 degrees northwest, with a distance of 30 kilometers to 35 kilometers, with a relatively compact formation."

The young general did not immediately come forward for careful observation, nor did he point fingers at the staff to do this and that. He stayed in place for a while, and waited until his officers detected the second radar circle that the plane was far away and the ship was basically motionless, and then he walked to the door, lowered his head and thought for a while. In the third circle, the technical officers confirmed again: "The Soviet aircraft is flying towards Murmansk at a speed of about 300 kilometers per hour, with a flight altitude of about 1,000 meters; the Soviet ships did not move significantly; no other metal aircraft was found in the 360 ​​kilometers of detection airspace; no other ships were found on the 80 kilometers of detection sea surface."

The young general wearing gold-rimmed glasses finally picked up the phone: "Command, I am Ralph Hennings from the radar station. The Soviet reconnaissance plane is returning and is 140 kilometers away. There is no abnormality in the detection area. Quick tracing paper is sent immediately... OK!"

After hanging up the phone, the general ordered in a low voice but very resolute manner: "Switch off the radar!"

The personnel in the control room here are busy turning off the radar equipment, while the technical officers in the control room there are just the opposite. Taking advantage of the period before, they have measured and mastered the communication frequency used by the Soviet army. Three high-power jammers are fully activated, and the invisible radio waves are blocking the commonly used bands within a radius of hundreds of kilometers in a blink of an eye. At the same time, four radio detectors are also working continuously, and there is also a high-power jammer waiting to deal with the situation where the Soviet army communicates with the rear through ultra-short wave channels. From a simple technical perspective, it takes only 30 seconds to interfere with the newly emerging communication frequency in real time.

As the attack point approaches infinitely, an astonishing number of underwater attack groups have gathered near the mooring waters of Soviet ships. If you only look at the calm sea, it is hard to imagine that there are more than 60 submarines in this area, and the number of submarines that will eventually participate in the war is more than this. You should know that when the Second World War broke out, the entire German Navy had only 57 active submarines, and most of them were medium and short-range submarines that were not suitable for long-range operations. The situation is just reversed. Although the new xxiii-class small attack submarine is an ideal offshore assassin,

However, 70% of the submarines retained in the "Aryan Square Boat Plan" are ocean-going combat submarines equipped with snorkels and various advanced equipment, which are capable of hunting operations in the North Sea, the Baltic Sea and the North Atlantic. In this offshore combat, although the silent performance of these conventional submarines is not as good as that of the new xxi and xxiii classes, they can carry more attack torpedoes at once. And under the command of experienced captains, it is not difficult to hide close to Soviet ships with ordinary sonar technology in the way they are good at.
