The decisive battle against the Third Reich

Chapter 761 Caucasus Mountains

In fact, this kind of small handheld walkie-talkie did exist during World War II. The country of production was of course the United States, which was not short of money...Germany, the Soviet Union, and even the United Kingdom did not dare to use this kind of walkie-talkie that could only transmit 1.5 kilometers because of lack of resources. idea, because this is a huge waste to them: although one is not worth much, if it is to supply an army of one hundred thousand, two hundred thousand or even millions, it is not small money.

Of course, the United States didn't care about this, so it produced 130,000 units with the model number BC611. It can be said that the originator of mobile phones looks like the old "Big Brother".

However, Qin Chuan made some improvements to it, that is, using wires to connect the microphone and earpiece to the helmet. This basically completed the need for communication equipment in operations similar to "Operation Mouse Hunting".

Of course, Qin Chuan couldn't just wait... As the First Infantry Regiment mastered the tactics of helicopter rappel, the training soon entered the second stage: training in the mountains.

Qin Chuan and others are no strangers to the Caucasus Mountains. When they attacked the Baku Oilfield before, Qinchuan and others crossed the Caucasus Mountains under the leadership of the mountain division.

But the situation at this time is not the same as back then... It was summer when we crossed over before, but now it has entered winter. The Caucasus Mountains are covered with white snow, and the temperature and environment have all changed, especially when the German soldiers were directly attacked. From 10 degrees to minus 20 degrees, from the plains to the mountains.

The helicopter took Qin Chuan and others to fly toward the snow-capped mountains, and it took half an hour to reach the agreed upon location...the 1st Mountain Division headquarters located in the eastern Caucasus Mountains.

As the helicopter flew closer, several red flares were fired from the vast white snow-capped mountains. There were faintly visible people waving red and black military flags on the snow-capped mountains, so the helicopter knew where to land.

In fact, the helicopter did not land, but rappelled near the target area... This was partly because of training needs, and partly because of concerns that the vibrations during takeoff and landing would cause an avalanche.

Of course, in addition to the soldiers rappelling down, piles of supplies were also hung from the ropes... These supplies are needed for the training and life of the troops.

When Qin Chuan slid down, he saw an officer wearing a thick cotton cloak coming up to him, holding Qin Chuan's hand enthusiastically, and asked: "Major, do you still remember me?"

It took Qin Chuan a while to recognize that it was Major General Freco of the First Mountain Division. He had become so thin that his cheekbones were protruding and his complexion was dark. He looked like a different person.

"What happened, general?" Qin Chuan asked.

Major General Frecco shook his head and said, "Let's go back to the fortifications to talk. I don't want to chat outside in such weather!"

Qin Chuan and his men followed Major General Freco through the snow, one foot shallow and one foot deep. Although the landing point was not far from the fortifications, it seemed to be only more than two hundred meters away, but when the soldiers climbed to the fortifications, Still out of breath.

"The height here is only three thousand meters!" Major General Frecco said: "The thinness of the air is within an acceptable range. If you go higher, you will find that it is a kind of torture!"

The fortification was left by the Soviets and was transformed from a cave. It was very simple inside, with most things made of wood and stone. If it weren't for the rifles on the gun racks, it would have been like a place where savages lived.

"Hey, gentlemen!" The baker opened a supply bag, took out bread from it and greeted the officers and soldiers in the fortification: "We have brought you bread, you need..."

Before he finished speaking, the officers and soldiers "coaxed" them to gather around and grab them.

"Now!" Major General Frecco said to Qin Chuan: "I can answer your question, Major. Because of the heavy snow that closed the mountains, we haven't received supplies for a while!"

"I'm sorry, General!" Qin Chuan said, "I just found out about this!"

"No!" Major General Frecco said: "You don't need to apologize, we know this."

"You mean... you know about helicopters?"

"Yes, of course!" Major General Frecco replied: "They told us about the helicopter, saying that this magical aircraft can bring us supplies, but we need to wait!"

"They can choose to have a helicopter send a batch of supplies up first!"

"They won't do it!" Major General Freko said: "This is partly because we can still hold on, and partly because they are worried that this will expose the role of the helicopter prematurely. You know, everywhere in Transcaucasus They are all Soviet spies!”

Qin Chuan couldn't help but nodded after hearing this.

This is one of the reasons why the First Infantry Regiment did not conduct snow mountain training until this time...

Although the Soviet army knew that the German army had helicopters, they did not realize what role helicopters could play in the Caucasus Mountains.

If both supplies and troops were transported to the Caucasus from the beginning, the spies in the Transcaucasus would soon report what they saw to the Soviet army... Helicopter transport can be said to be hidden, because it is a flying Those in heaven are easily found.

Therefore, the German security divisions need to conduct several large-scale radio station searches in the Transcaucasus, especially near the helicopter flight routes.

Qin Chuan handed Major General Freco a piece of bread. Major General Freco maintained the demeanor of a general at first, but soon he desperately stuffed the bread into his mouth and chewed it.

Major General Frecco asked vaguely while eating: "So, what we just saw was a helicopter, right?"

"Yes!"

"Glad to know it's true!"

"You mean..."

"That's a rumor!" Freco said, "Some people say helicopters don't exist. That's just an excuse to deceive us to stay here."

Qin Chuan nodded to show that he understood.

At this moment, he seemed to feel the almost isolated state of the 1st Mountain Division stationed in the Caucasus Mountains.

Freco continued, "If you want to train, I suggest you hurry up, because I believe the Soviets will soon launch an attack on the Caucasus Mountains!"

Freco shook his head and said, "It's hard to imagine that they would attack the Caucasus Mountains at this time. They must be crazy!"

Qin Chuan felt that the Soviets were not crazy.

Because from the perspective of the Soviet army, there would be many advantages to choosing to attack the Caucasus at this time, such as the Soviets' cold resistance and familiarity with the terrain.

At least, this would be much better than their attack on Baku from the sea.

But Qin Chuan believed that the Soviet army did not consider helicopters when making this decision.

So, they jumped into the trap set by the German army.
