Although there was a very bad game, when the watch pointer pointed to 2: 15 a.m., Logan and his "gendarmerie" arrived in Sandang, a small town in the southeast of the Isle of Wight, nearly an hour and a half later than originally planned.
It’s not surprising that Logan came to Monk before the war-torn ―― Britain and France have a very complicated history, because their architectural styles are intertwined in many places, and Monk Sandang was built in the Renaissance. The Georgian style and scale are quite different. In fact, just before the action, Logan deliberately took "Little Sophie Marceau" and her two siblings to Monk. After several fierce battles, especially the British heavy artillery bombardment, the residents there were left with broken walls and short walls. Two people went back to their homeland to see their own embarrassing situation. Logan was also very helpless. Considering that the life and death of this trip were uncertain, the German farmer’s family was definitely unable to stay for a long time. He left all his money (Imperial Mark should be able to circulate freely in the German-occupied area) to "Little Sophie Marceau" to let her live in another village near Monk with a pair of siblings.

Today at midnight, everyone can rest assured to smash tickets!
Chapter 2 He is actually a warm-hearted.
Looking forward to the benefits, the British farmers guided Logan and his "British Gendarmerie" to the Sangdang patrol station-in fact, a two-story house was built next to the police station.
Before entering the door, Logan did the same thing and let his hand cut off their external communication line, and then the 33 rd gendarmerie "Captain Billy Roald" bluffed.
"Pelcliffe!"
The small patrol leader introduced himself voluntarily, although he had military experience, but his cleverness and vigilance were obviously not as good as his own. He told the whole story about the strength of the patrol. This local patrol was composed of four retired soldiers and 16 second-class reserve soldiers. Except for going out to patrol three two-person bicycle groups, there were still 14 people in the barracks. All the weapons included the old Limetford rifle that could be put into the museum and the Li En Field I short rifle that had participated in a war. There were no grenades or mines, and there were no light machine guns and heavy weapons.
The patrol captain of the British regular army stationed at Calverton Point told Logan that those guys were strong enough to handle all kinds of dangers in Fiona Fang-they were not only equipped with multiple anti-guns but also wheeled armored vehicles and high-powered trucks in that building near the cliff with a strange antenna standing on the top. The officer said that he didn’t know exactly what it was. The officer of that army occasionally came to town to buy some wine, but he didn’t say anything about his army’s serial number and phase.
Rogan, an armored vehicle and truck, showed their tracks in aerial photos taken by German reconnaissance planes before the operation, and these important means of transportation will also be a key point for the success or failure of the operation. Cape Calverton is a cliff near the sea, and the only airport on the Isle of Wight is located in the northern suburb of Newport. The map has a linear distance of 20 kilometers, and there are still an unknown number of troops to guard it. The best place to meet is a small unknown port in Bridge, not far north of Cape Calverton!
Seeing that the patrol captain was wary, Logan put away his murder when he entered the door. So he mysteriously told the patrol captain that according to reliable information, there was a German spy British officer lurking in Calverton Point with the purpose of waiting for an opportunity to destroy important equipment there. The purpose of bringing people here this time was to arrest this German spy-but considering that he might incite British soldiers to cause unnecessary conflicts, he decided to arrest him by surprise!
In the second year of the war, it is not a fantasy for a belligerent country. In Britain, there are more spies in Germany than widows’ doors, and the British army has already issued a notice asking the military and civilians to be vigilant, especially not to disclose military or political secrets to people around them easily.
Maybe it’s that the small town days are too idle. After listening to Logan’s explanation, Clifford actively expressed his willingness to help the gendarmerie in this operation, and he will personally beat him up to relieve the Japanese!
Logan speaks highly of the retired British sergeant 6, but he is laughing at you in his heart. You are surrounded by Germans in English skins!
With this patrol captain assisting the operation, it will be much smoother. Look at the time, Logan asked the wounded, including Steven Berg, to stay in the town to rest, and then left a Brown light machine gun group and five riflemen-in case the remaining patrol soldiers changed, they could be put out conveniently.
In this way, Logan can take 36 paratroopers, but even if the number is doubled, it will not be enough to storm a position with fixed fortifications. Today, he will continue to develop his acting talent. Maybe when the war is over, he will be able to produce several prototype dramas of his own when he is a football coach, which will become a box office classic.
Unable to find enough means of transportation, Logan and his party were able to separate a few cyclists, and the British farmer and his carriage continued to be loaded with machine guns and ammunition. The "gendarmes" carried heavy backpacks all the way, and Logan instructed the paratroopers to cut the line when they saw it.
After more than half an hour’s trek, they arrived at Cape Calverton.
There is still no light in the sky. There are a few lights on in front of the castle, but they are not. So even if there are dozens of mirogen apart, you can see the building with strange antennas clearly. However, according to Clifford, it used to be a semi-abandoned castle. The inheritors have a nominal name and their pockets are unwilling to sell their ancestors’ remains so that they can carry out small-scale repairs every few years. In this case, it is not necessarily a bad thing to be requisitioned by the military. If the government is damaged in the battle, it will be a relief for the poor man even if he does not pay a war compensation.
The position around the castle is quiet, and there is no moving figure. There is also a whistling sea breeze in the ear. According to Clifford’s "intelligence", there is only a single-line trench and barbed wire in the periphery of the castle, which can accommodate trucks entering and leaving the sand. Logan thought that it is not difficult to fool the situation when most defenders are asleep. There are also anti-aircraft gun positions nearby, which are about 5oo meters north from the castle. It is the main anti-aircraft gun emplacement here, and there is about an anti-aircraft gun company with troops going south. There is a small auxiliary position at 400 meters. Although there are 4 or 5 anti-aircraft guns, it is estimated that there are 30 British soldiers according to the artillery configuration. In this way, once Logan and his opponents exchange fire in the process of capturing the castle, the British soldiers will definitely come to support them.
Logan’s scalp is numb at the thought of those flat-fire situations against infantry, such as picking up dirt and anti-aircraft machine guns
Draw a topographic map in the sand against the branches. The commander, who just became a rookie, studied it for five minutes. While remembering his right-hand man Steven Berg naively, he gritted his teeth and made his own deployment. Lieutenant gerhardt Schermey led a two-man machine gun group and nine riflemen to ambush near the anti-aircraft gun position in the north. Once the guns came, they rushed into the anti-aircraft gun position and quickly destroyed the gunners there. Scoob Jr. took five riflemen to ambush the south anti-aircraft gun position and also took the initiative to attack after the battle; Finally, three machine gun groups and four riflemen ambushed the front of the castle, leading the remaining seven paratroopers and the patrol captain Clifford, who was still in the valley, strode to the castle.
*************
Come on, smash the tickets! Wonderful plot is coming soon!
Chapter 21 Rows of Eating Fruits
"live! What person? "
When Logan and his men walked a few steps away from the barbed wire area, the sentry finally showed these "guests" with limited light.
"I am the captain of the local patrol of Pyle Clifton! Have something important to find your commander! " At Logan’s instigation, the British replied quite cooperatively
The sentry saw these guys in the army and shouted, "Don’t move there. I’ll notify the major!" "
Logan and his paratroopers naturally stopped-at this time, if they rashly attacked the sentry gun, the chances of warning were quite high.
"After the matter is solved, I will truthfully report to your chief today!" Logan said to Cliff, "Imagine that no commander would let a capable hand like you go!"
"Hey hey! I am a retired soldier and that’s all I can do! " The patrol commander is very modest at this time.
"The key is not the size of things, but the courage and wisdom that a person shows in the face of sudden situations!" Logan’s words seem to be praise, but in fact, they are full of ridicule. During their little chat, an officer came out of the castle and was still buttoning his army while walking.
"Cheer up, boys!" Logan said that he also intends to hold his chest higher. You know, gendarmes are usually dragging.
The officer went to the sentry and stopped at a distance of nearly 20 meters and shouted, "Are you the Sangdang local patrol? What are you doing here at this time? "
"I have something important to report to you!" I just got a compliment. Cliff put all his strength into it this time.
"Important situation? Send someone over! " The British officer looks very cautious.
No choice. Logan strode forward. When the bright red on the top of his military cap appeared across the light, the officer and the soldier all showed surprise.
Logan looked at the other party’s rank mark, but it was not the "major" mentioned by the sentry, but a British 6 th Army lieutenant
"Lieutenant, I want to speak directly to your commander!" He said haughtily
"You … er, you’re not the Thornton local patrol?" The lieutenant officer obviously recognized Logan’s identity from the army and logo, and was a military police captain of the 6 th Army!
"No, after we arrived in Thornton, we specially invited this Clifford to lead us! Ok, the military situation is urgent, please call your commander immediately and I will tell him the specific situation! " Logan is still arrogant, but he doesn’t want to talk too badly.
"Er … you wait a moment! I’m going to report it! "
The lieutenant went to the sentry box and picked up the words, apparently to report the situation to the people inside the castle. After a while, he leaned out and said to Logan, "Sir, please wait for Major Pareson!"
Pareson? Logan thought for a moment, but he didn’t remember the name at all ―― if the German spies stationed in Britain were more successful, they wouldn’t be so blind!
After a while, two people came out of the castle, the one in front of them and the one behind the button, which seemed to be awakened alive by the belt.
Logan remained as cool as a cucumber until the other side came to him. He took his time to give a gift and handed it to the German intelligence department to forge documents and papers-it was easy to forge these things because a large number of British documents were seized during the battle of the Western Front.
"Captain Billy Roald belongs to the 33rd Gendarmerie and was ordered to search for a German spy!"
Major Pareson is an old officer who seems to be 5o years old. It is difficult to say whether this "old ginger" is strong or weak in anti-deception. They often have formed a relatively fixed thinking and have less doubts about the situation that is reasonable, but their experience may play a positive role at some key points.
"Oh Roald commandant 33 gendarmerie and this … huh? Long-term latent German spy? Is there such a thing? " The major saw the document clearly by the light and asked with an incredible face, "Do you know his name?"
"I didn’t know that our intelligence agent saw another German spy when he was following him. They were meeting at that time, and then our intelligence agent followed him here. Two days ago, we officially captured the German spy, but he refused to recognize his companion’s name and identity."
Logan had thought of the wording before the action, not only described the situation in a hurry, but also deliberately said in a low voice, "The major has been lurking in Britain for a while, and German spies are extremely active. We are worried that they will step up their efforts to steal our information and destroy important facilities, and then they rushed here! We should have arrived before midnight if the car hadn’t broken down halfway! "
"But …" The major said hesitantly, "How can I cooperate since you don’t know his identity?"
"It’s simple. I brought the agent to ask you to let all the genera come out and line up to identify them for him. We will be able to find out the spy and … so we don’t have to touch those confidential equipment! Everyone saves trouble! " Logan said, looking at the castle behind the major, he finally saw it like a large net antenna in this position.
"This …" The major thought for a moment. "I have to report this situation to the headquarters first!"
Logan had already foreseen this situation, and all the routes were snapped off. If this unit can still connect through the buried underground line, it can be said that one of our own people is not good.
The major walked into the sentry box, but the result was predictable. Under such circumstances, even if the wired equipment was contacted by the newspaper and there was a risk of being intercepted by the enemy, after some ideological struggle, he decided to accept the suggestion of the "gendarmerie officer" who was younger and lower in rank than himself.
"The lieutenant ordered the troops to line up outside the trench!"
Hearing this, Logan couldn’t help but be elated. He asked these fools to come outside and ambush in the back, and the machine guns would kill them like wheat ―― the guns would expose the operation, but they had to move quickly enough to transport the key equipment in the castle to Bridgeport several miles away before the British support forces arrived. According to the plan, two small German submarines should have been lurking in the nearby waters by this time. When they received the response signal, they would directly break into the pocket port where the small boats could berth and pick up the personnel and equipment of the operation.
Despite the incidents all the way, Logan is still optimistic about the prospect of action.
********************
Stay tuned for the wonderful chapter in the middle of the night!
Chapter 22 Welcome to British Slaughterhouse
On the fame, the British Sixth Army is far from having a glorious history, and the Royal Navy is not crowned with the title of "Royal" like the British Army (one reason is that in the mid-17th century, it was also said that the new model army, the British Sixth Army, defeated the King Wang Dang Army and sent King Charles I to the guillotine, and another important reason is that the British Sixth Army belonged to the British Parliament instead of the British royal family according to the British Profit Act signed in 169).
On the strength, the British Sixth Army has always pursued the strategy of "small but elite" to penetrate the territory and show off its strength. However, in France, the combat quality and battlefield performance of the 200,000 British expeditionary forces are ten times stronger than their own. That is why the French friendly forces withdrew 150,000 British expeditionary forces from Dunkirk when the French succumbed to the German iron hoof. Although most of their weapons were lost on the other side of the strait, they are still well-trained and experienced soldiers.
In the British land, wearing a set of British military police, Logan pinched his watch and looked at the group of British soldiers for 3 minutes and 22 seconds. The last soldier entered the line and looked around. Although the faces were sleepy, the army was not neat, but the efficiency was still commendable. It took Logan three minutes to make such a sudden closing!
The whole process has been sullen. Major Pareson turned to Logan in a cold tone or rather in a bad mood. If there is a German spy in his own army and it has been lurking for a long time, that kind of commander must have a way to shirk his responsibility!
"Captain Roald can ask your agent to come and identify it!"
