The more war period, the more vigilant the allied occupying troops in Germany was not afraid to relax. Especially in the failure of the war and the fall of the Third Reich regime, pro-Soviet parties gained a breeding ground among the German people, as well as those "nostalgic" veterans and close relatives.

For this reason, the Allies formulated some strategies to "control Germany with morality", that is, to encourage German residents to report suspicious people around them with a large reward. For example, if an ordinary SS member who is incognito can receive a "four US dollars, the higher the level, the higher the reward, the higher the ship. If a SS general or a senior Gestapo official is given, the reward will be enough for the informant to immigrate to the United States and live a life of food and clothing without worries.

Even though the Germans are never very enthusiastic about responding to the reward, how dare "imperial legacy" like Lynn, who has no reputation or mass base in the south, dare not take it lightly. After staying in a small hotel called "Oliver House" for two days, they moved to a town located in the eastern suburbs of Munich, which was a secret stronghold of the Imperial Intelligence Department, and the few residents in the town were reliable people who hated the invaders. After that, Drente, a new generation leader of the Von Ikebox Bearing Company, found a very ideal new residence for them.

The Sbach family is a resort manor on the east bank of Lake Steinberg. This family occupies a very prominent position in the modern history of Bavaria and even Germany. Although their rule was overthrown in the old and old years, the old nobles still enjoyed high reputation and reputation locally, and they still had close or far-reaching blood relationship with the royal family of European monarchical countries. Given that these old German nobles were excluded from the power layer of the Third Reich, they were not involved in the massacre of Jews or invasion of other countries during World War II.

Absolutely, the allied occupying forces harassed these people and their industries. Some Allied commanders from Western European countries such as Britain, the Netherlands, Belgium, etc. still maintained private contact and interaction with them. Feng and Ike used their family relationship to borrow this small and somewhat old resort manor. They wanted to set up a secret test site for the backbone technicians who worked for Schweiingfurt bearing companies in the past, so as to lay the foundation for the recovery and expansion of ball bearing production. After the establishment of the Bavarian Southern Industrial Alliance, entrepreneurs used resource letters.

The sharing of information has found a more convenient and reliable way: the Bavarian Machinery Manufacturing Factory's wartime secret factory in Penzberg has stopped operating, and the hidden facilities there can be used for technical research by enterprises. Moreover, technical research in metals, bearings, power, chemicals and other related fields can play a mutual support role. Therefore, when you look up, you can appreciate the beauty of the Bavarian lake and mountains, the resort manor that has become a temporary residence for Lynn and others, and will soon become the liaison and command center of the Imperial Intelligence Department in Bavaria.

"Everyone, before we use these photos to analyze the enemy's deployment in detail, I solemnly propose... to observe a moment of silence for the Ming Empire warriors who died in the reconnaissance operation!"''

In the large room opposite the lake, Lynn stood up and said, bowed his head and observed silently, and Handmark, Therot and the other two imperial personnel present did it without saying a word. This place was originally a study room, but now the bookcase and desk are still far away. Two simple square wooden tables are temporarily placed in front of the window. They are put together with white tablecloths, and there are several wooden chairs with straight tea-lined backrests. On the tablecloth are quietly lying on the tablecloths, a stack of photos that have just washed out of the dark room. From the picture, they are mostly taken from a long-range photo, and some show the ruins of the city full of soreness. Some are winding roads in the mountains and forests in the middle of winter, as well as open wilderness, winding streams, steep mountains and various houses. The most common ones are the castle-style building Nuremberg Prison that has attracted a lot of attention!

The silence ended, and the people sat down. Although the planner was proposed by Lynn, the soldiers who sacrificed their lives for the cause of the empire were under the command of Lynn. The dark-faced intelligence officer spread the photos one by one and said with great sincerity: "Based on the detailed exploration we made in the early stage, it is now basically confirmed that the Alliance team deployed 3,500 to 4,000 soldiers in Nuremberg, which was 1,000 more than the previous estimate. They surrounded the four Nuremberg Railway Station, Prison, Caesar Castle, and Airport.

The main areas are stationed, with no 67 garrison checkpoints at surrounding traffic intersections and along railways, and several mobile patrols with jeep and light armored vehicles as carriers. In addition, in the past week, we have observed a company-level Cromwell cruiser tank troops stationed in the Allied barracks in the northeast of Nuremberg. It only takes forty minutes to reach the prison at the fastest speed of these tanks from the garrison at the highway speed of these tanks.’’

Everyone looked at the photos silently, and no one was in a hurry to speak. There were only two magnifying glasses that could be used, so they had to take turns to use them. This scene reminded some people of the intelligence work of Weinian of the Third Reich. Its rigorous, precise and professional level was far beyond that of most countries at that time. The aerial photos that were magnified were suitable for accurate calculations and judgments, and also made a very important contribution to the German army's sweep of Poland and kicking down France.

After a brief pause, Serot picked up three photos from below: "With a professional intelligence perspective, I think the Allies' garrison of Nuremberg Airport is the most stringent. We tried many methods, but only once for such a long time can obtain a suitable optical reconnaissance position, and this is one of the few photos that can reflect the main situation of the airport.

Lynn looked at it with the situation. The first photo looked at the airport. Its scale was relatively large in military airports. It had three main runways and multiple auxiliary runways. There were dozens of aircraft of various types and models placed next to the runway and the apron. The whole row of Mustang fighters seemed the coolest. In the second photo, many hangars were surrounded by a tall flying tower with cross-anted antennas on it. The air defense positions using camouflage nets could be vaguely identified at the far end. You should know that Nuremberg is located in the southeast of Germany, close to Poland and Austria, and away.

It is nearly a thousand kilometers away from the current front line. Compared with the air forces of both sides, the possibility of being attacked by Soviet air forces is very small. It is estimated that the rapid development of airborne technology over the past decade is the main reason why the Allied forces deployed aviation forces in Nuremberg. In Lynn's view, the third photo also shot at the critical point, which is a land-based radar station with a network antenna on its head. This is not as clever and convenient as the radar stations seem to be not as skillful and convenient as using pot radars. They are often equipped with high-power equipment that can detect and early warning of long-distance air targets.

Seeing that Lynn and Handmark were trying to read important information from the airport photos, Selor paused the introduction and walked to the window silently to light a cigarette for himself. From the opening sentence, his whole body and the atmosphere in the room were controlled by a stagnant breath.

"If we raid the airport before attacking the prison, ... When Hans Samut, the intelligence officer who was sure to participate in the operation, whispered his speculation, Handmark responded without hesitation, "The prison will immediately adopt the highest level of martial law," and then stared at the second photo and shook his head:

"It seems that we can only act at the same time or step a little later, and we will definitely not be able to use the transport plane here, which is a pity!"

The lower corner of this photo is exactly a US military's C-constant transport aircraft, whose voyage can fly from Nuremberg to Norway, but the strict military deployment of the Allied forces in Central and Europe is enough to intercept any of the current aircraft except the "disk", and the interference effect of the "disk," cannot be used as a reliable escort.

Lynn silently picked up another photo. It took a photo of a road checkpoint of the US military, wooden posts, tripod wire mesh, sandbags, machine guns, jeeps, wooden houses, and telephone lines set up in mid-air. Everything is consistent with the impression of the checkpoints in people's minds.

After a while, seeing Lynn staring at this ordinary photo in a daze, Fendmark said in a low voice: "If you operate at night, one or two soldiers will be enough to control this checkpoint!"

Lynn blinked continuously, and his thoughts returned to his eyes. According to the previous performance of the vampire Night Battle Commando on the battlefield, a soldier using infrared night vision instruments and assault rifles only had no suspense about the terrain and the suddenness of the attack, but what caused him to ponder was how the stupid people who extended from these checkpoints could not return to their base camp without leaving any traces that those stupid people who were not good for the empire and even might destroy the revival plan could never return to their base camp.

After smoking a cigarette from Selor, his mood obviously relieved a little. At present, the empire's manpower and material resources in various fields are in a dilemma. The intelligence work is limited to its lack of excellent and reliable intelligence officers. Operation Nuremberg is imminent, and many details require people who can lead the operation troops, so his sorrow is not difficult to understand.

"Let's focus on the situation of Nuremberg Prison!" Selor walked to Lynn and said, "The total area of ​​the prison is nearly square kilometers, and can accommodate up to 10,000 prisoners. As we know, there are only more than 30 people, but the guards in the prison have as many as there are. This is probably the prison with the largest gap between the guards and the detainees in the world. Moreover, the firepower of these guards is very impressive. There are many heavy machine guns with a caliber caliber, and they can be strong.

The wall stacks of the motorcycle used to tear the invaders of external forces into pieces, and the light artillery had almost no effect on the walls here. In theory, there was only one passage on the front of the prison for personnel and vehicles to enter and exit, but the project blasting gave us the option to expand to four walls, especially the north one. The wall is only 600 meters away from the woods. The terrain is bumpy and uneven, suitable for cover and propulsion. If it is shot by the enemy, you can also look for hidden places. Of course, this is just my personal simple understanding: "

"These observation decks look like turrets, and the Allies should have more than just put heavy machine guns on them!" Handmark pointed to the photo and said that this and the stone building of the Arrow Tower are located at the four corners of the prison and the apex of the inner floor. Since the photo is taken at a distant hillside, the angle limits people's curiosity about the situation inside the Arrow Tower.

Serot immediately replied: "From the perspective of military defense, they are good to serve as fire fulcrum. Large caliber mortars may be the most ideal choice, but the Allied commanders obviously did not have the idea of ​​transforming it into a fortress fortress. There are only searchlights, sentries and anti-aircraft machine guns. Due to the angle, the anti-aircraft machine guns here cannot attack ground targets outside the high walls:"

In the specific division of labor in this operation, Lynn appointed Handmark to be responsible for the formulation of offensive and retreat routes. It was not that he wanted to be a "hands-off boss", but that there were many strategic matters that he needed to concentrate on and carefully consider.

After a brief pause, Serot continued: "From the incoming and exiting the guards, there are no more than one hundred detainees inside the prison, and they take shifts once a day. At noon, 12 shifts enter the castle from the front passage. After half an hour, the off-road personnel leave from the same passage. The barracks are set up in the south of the prison, and there are outposts in the other three directions. There is also Caesar Castle, which is very close to the straight line of the prison, but the vehicles cannot travel too fast on the mountain road, so the shortest driving distance from there to the prison is minute. It is currently the command of the Allied Occupation Army, with hundreds of staff and at least one company of guards. The castle mainly relies on natural defense and has relatively weak warnings, but even if it is taken down, it cannot catch any valuable figures. At most, it is low-ranking generals and school officials of several Allied countries. This is also my personal understanding, for your reference only.

Lynn's way of thinking is obviously very different from this intelligence officer, and the generals in the Occupy Army Command could not reach the strategic level.

Little people, but this command center controls the defenses around Nuremberg, and controls this place is more valuable than forcibly occupying the airport. Even as a senior official of the empire, Lynn is still willing to show his special "acting skills" on the right stage. Whenever he thinks about the successful past, which makes people feel incredible and even ironic, he has a wonderful feeling of being itchy in his heart.

"As for the specific location and physical and mental status of the detention personnel, due to the usual dietary supply inside and outside the prison, most of the medical services are cooked by the League team themselves. We cannot obtain any valuable information through the residents of Nuremberg, nor can we get in and find out the information, but can only analyze it through some hearsay news.

...

It is said that before they were imprisoned, the Allied forces transferred hundreds of German prisoners of war from the prison camp to clean, repair and reinforce. These prisoners were then imprisoned back to the concentration camp. As we all know, hundreds of thousands of prisoners of war have been released in the past two months and transferred to the defense army or volunteer troops commanded by the Allied forces. They revealed some situations in the prison to their companions, saying that the Allied forces had particularly strict requirements on cleaning work in underground detention areas.’,

Therott used the word "hearse-talking" very calmly, which was equivalent to reminding the colleagues who collected these information for decision-making that the reliability of the information was to be questioned. Hearing this, Handmark immediately marked his record book full of texts and symbols. Lynn had read his small book. This guy used the code of code of each word and word. Even if outsiders picked it up, they could not know the goal, content and route of the action.

After roughly explaining the content of the photo, Serot said in a strongly suggestive language: "According to the past weather, the next month will be the coldest in Nuremberg, with snowing almost half of the time. Even on sunny days, the fog lasts for a long time. After mid-January, the weather will gradually warm up, and it will often rain and make it difficult to walk on the mountain road."

At present, the preliminary preparations and intelligence collection work of the Nuremberg Operation have been going on for a long time. It is not easy to endure it with the patience of the head of state. Lynn should be glad that he is in Germany now, otherwise the inquiries and urging of the base camp may be one after another. Until these reconnaissance photos in front of him, Lynn has a comprehensive and intuitive understanding of the entire operation environment, but these preparations are far from the level of everything ready in his eyes... It is impossible to "complete" with the current situation. What Lynn is really waiting for is the most suitable opportunity for action.

Two days later, news came from Nuremberg that Western allies had confirmed that they would officially restart the trial as soon as the New Year passed, and judges and trial staff from the United States, Britain and France have also arrived in Nuremberg one after another to prepare for the collection of evidence and drafting of documents that were interrupted by the outbreak of the war. At this moment, an astonishing battle report came from the Eastern European front: the bad weather restricted the battlefield activities of the allied air force, and the Soviet army once again became silent and gathered heavy troops to launch a fierce counterattack on the southern front. The famous Soviet commander

Rokosovsky continued to serve as the commander of the battle. He was not ruthless in the face of the famous British commander Alexander. He severely damaged the First Armored Army, the United Kingdom's most elite army, in just 60 hours, and gave a devastating blow to the US ray cavalry division and the French "infantry division," and tear a big hole in the joint of the defense lines of the Allied South and Central Routes. The brave and warlike Soviet troops launched continuous attacks regardless of the wind, snow and low temperatures. A fist unit composed of thousands of tanks and tanks and large numbers of mechanized infantry.

Influx from the defense line' and broke through to the Allied forces at a speed of about kilometers per day, and soon formed a flank encirclement force on Marshal Alexander's main force. The Soviet guard navy also recaptured Ao Sad, who had occupied less than two weeks with a rapid landing operation, and thus knocked a "soul-catching nail" on Alexander's right wing. In this way, Alexander faced the problem of either giving up the troops behind the defense line to quickly evacuate or wait for friendly reinforcements in the encirclement.

All the troops retreated, and the bad weather may cause more than a dozen infantry divisions to fall into the Soviet army. If a circular defense line is built on the spot, it may repeat the mistakes of the Allied South Road troops before. You must know that the Western Allied forces have invested the strongest troops in the South Road this time. If these hundreds of thousands of elite troops are wiped out again, their initiative in land operations will be completely lost. Next, we have to rely on the Soviet Union to defeat its vast territory by the economic blockade and strategic bombing of the allied countries. The destruction of the Allied bombing has been greatly diluted.
