In short, in fact, the principle of night vision instrument in this era is very simple, just like flashlight lighting the road.

The flashlight shines, shines on the front, reflects back, and the eyes see it.

However, others can see the light of the flashlight.

Therefore, it is necessary to change a kind of light, that is, infrared, which is invisible to the human eye, but can be received by the receiving device.

At this time, in the front tank, Treg stepped on the accelerator and listened to the unique sound of the engine behind. Then he released the clutch and the tank started.

In front of him is the driver's observation hole. He opened his eyes and looked ahead. However, he can only see more than ten meters, which is far from ensuring his safety.

"Keep accelerating and moving forward." From the headphones came captain Kurt -? In nespel's voice, he said, "the road ahead of us is to drive safely and boldly!"

Night vision is a new thing, and its output is very rare. Only goodrian, who has always been good at studying technology, will equip his armored division with these night vision.

At the same time, the current night vision instrument is very simple. Only the commander has a receiving device. Other artillery commanders and drivers are still in a state of discredit. In other words, they must completely trust the commander.

Nespel dutifully commanded his tanks and moved forward quickly, while behind them, tanks followed.

Every few tanks will be mixed with an infantry combat vehicle, with a big pot cover on the roof, that is, the more powerful owl infrared headlamp.

It releases more intense infrared rays to help illuminate the road ahead, so that its own tanks can have enough reaction time.

In fact, it is not impossible to act at night. When there are few stars in the month, the car soldiers often turn off the headlights and start the car. Some people are born night owls and can see everything in the dark.

However, their speed will never be so fast as now. At the same time, their observation ability at night depends on the moonlight and starlight. Now the outside sky is quite dark.

If there were no night vision, it would be nice for the tank troops to travel several kilometers an hour.

The track of the tank ran over in the field. In more than ten minutes, it walked a few kilometers and came to the border.

Nespel's eyes were fixed on his receiver. He saw the outpost in front, the outpost of the Luxembourg border guard.

"Prepare the machine gun, eleven o'clock." Nespel said.

Will the border guards of Luxembourg resist when they are about to enter the border of Luxembourg? Your tanks can easily crush them, but that will expose your targets.

The loader pushes the machine gun and is ready. Although he can't see the distance clearly, he can just do what the captain says. Moreover, as long as he shoots, the bullet is mixed with tracer bullets, he can clearly display the trajectory, and then continue to adjust.

Nespel was constantly watching the post. Soon, he saw the situation on the other side of the post from his infrared receiver.

Several scouts, standing outside the post, raised their right hands and saluted them in a standard manner.

Our own scouts have ambushed outside the post in advance. When the order is issued, they control here!

Well done!

Tanks rumbled along the road next to the post, one after another. When the tanks in front had passed an hour, the troops behind were still moving.

This is a huge army!

No one has noticed the situation in Luxembourg. After all, Luxembourg is an extremely small country. As small as two world wars, this country has no resistance. Whoever comes will surrender and live as he should every day.

On the border, they had only a few garrison posts. When these posts were controlled, it was easy for the German army to March.

At the same time, the backward communication system makes everything here unable to be transmitted.

Now, it is the early morning of May 10, 39, a year earlier than in history!

The powerful SS armored division entered Luxembourg's territory on this dark night, and then drilled into the Arden forest.

Everything is quiet.

Meanwhile, intense preparations were under way at all air bases in western Germany.

It was still dark outside, only the runway lights were shining. In the hangar not far away, Hans Ulrich ruder looked at his plane.

Hans has fought for the 178th time, and he has accumulated 121 achievements.

Now, the air force is making an institutional improvement. When Hans's achievements have accumulated to 200, Hans must retreat from the front line and wait for him to teach those rookies in the rear, which makes Hans very unhappy.

What makes Hans even more unhappy is that now, Germany has thousands of bombers. Now, in the battle against France, they are assigned to their own targets, and Hans's Bomber Squadron is not France, Belgium, the Netherlands, but lucenburg.

It's like killing a chicken with an ox knife. What's he doing in Luxembourg?

The sickle waving operation is confidential. Only senior officers who are directly responsible know the real battle plan. Ordinary junior officers are not qualified to know.

If every soldier knew to cross the Arden forest, he would fart!

Although he couldn't figure it out, as a soldier, Hans knew that he must obey orders as his bounden duty.

Now, the maintenance of the aircraft has been completed, and the maintenance personnel are preparing to hang two 500 kg bombs under the belly of the aircraft.

Now, it's only more than four o'clock in the morning, more than an hour before dawn. After dawn, it's the turn of Stuka bombers.

Bored Hans walked out of the hangar and looked at the runway under the distant light.

Under the dim yellow runway lights, a Junker 52 transport plane is towing a DFS 230 glider to take off from the runway.

The three engines were running at full speed. Aunt Junker was working hard at this time, preparing to tow the glider behind to take off.

From a technical point of view, the whole world War II was absolutely dominated by Germany. Tanks, aircraft, artillery and almost many technologies came from Germany. Many were first applied in Germany.

For example, a glider!

Compared with aircraft, the biggest difference between gliders is that they have no power. They rely entirely on falling from high altitude, constantly consuming potential energy and finally landing. At the same time, because there is no power, the glider can be thrown after use without worrying about the cost.

At the same time, because there is no power, the glider will hardly make any sound in the process of flying, which can play the role of surprise.
