When I jumped down from above, I felt the cold wind blowing. Everyone felt very cold.

When parachuting, the weight is limited. If the weight below is too large, the falling speed will increase, which may lead to parachuting accidents. Now, they dare not wear thick military coats. Although they are leather jackets, they are quite cold.

When his feet touched the top of the mountain, Eric felt his feet soft and stepped on the snowbank. It was quite good!

If you step on the hard ice, you may break your legs. Now, stepping on the soft snow can provide enough cushioning.

Eric put his parachute away and buried it in the snow. If the parachute is found, it will certainly be searched by the large forces. A small unit like them may encounter risks.

Next, the first thing he needs to solve is to find the equipment he just threw down and meet with several others!

After walking in the snow for more than 20 minutes, he was very lucky and found a package with four people's thick and warm coats!

Quickly put on his clothes. Suddenly, his body felt warm. Then, his good luck ended.

It took two days to get together with the second partner until dawn, and the four people gathered together to collect all kinds of equipment, including the search for the most important telegraph!

Can't make a fire, can only eat hard dry bread, the water is frozen, can only eat snow, relying on strong perseverance, several people finally overcome all kinds of difficulties.

"Tonight, we will touch the vicinity of the chemical plant, mark it and wait for our glider to arrive." Eric told the others that although they were seriously overdrawn, each of them was excited.

The equipment is complete. Now, it's time to go to the chemical plant!

Why didn't they use a glider when they came down? Because this is a mountainous area, they simply can't find a suitable landing site at night. Only when they parachute down first and guide the landing site of the glider to the personnel behind, can they guide the glider to land.

At the same time, the real explosives and other equipment used to blow up heavy water factories are also transported by gliders.

One foot is deep and the other is shallow. Stepping on the snow, several people went to the foot of the mountain. The altitude here is 1300 meters. Therefore, although summer is coming, the mountains in high altitude areas are still covered with snow.

Few people came here in the mountains and forests, but several people still walked carefully. Eric was familiar with the terrain here. He worked as a guide in front and trudged through the mountains and forests for six hours. When the day was about to dawn, finally, he pulled away the branches of the big tree. In front of them, there was an open space, hundreds of meters in front of the open space, which was the vimock factory.

Near the factory, I can't see any guard force, which is no different from before! Eric was very excited and shouted to the people behind him, "Peter, send a telegram back to them immediately and tell them that we have reached the designated position and the landing site remains unchanged!"

The glider carries enough explosives. After landing from here, a charge can hit the heavy water plant and completely blow up the whole heavy water plant. When the Germans react, their own side has retreated safely!

Peter, carrying a heavy Telegraph on his back, put up the telegraph and wore headphones. Next to him, another companion stretched out the antenna high and put it on the branch of the tree trunk.

"Didi, Didi." Soon, the telegram was sent out. Almost ten minutes later, he received the echo: "tonight, we mark and wait for the glider to arrive around 11 o'clock."

The East has turned white. As long as they stay here for a day and at night, they will carry out this task!

He put the telegram away again, but he saw a signal light on it and began to flash. Suddenly, his face changed slightly: "no, the battery of our telegraph machine has run out of electricity."

Most of the equipment in this era is electronic tubes. Only Germany entered the transistor era ahead of time, which is also quite confidential.

The power consumption of the electronic tube is quite large. These days, they wander around the mountains. The cold and humid weather has reduced the storage capacity of the battery. Now, after sending the telegram, they actually run out of power!

"It doesn't matter. We've finished the task." Eric comforted his subordinates that we don't need radio contact tonight. Just wait here for the glider.

Eric didn't know that their waiting was not a day, but three months!

The swallow's telegram came late, but the news still excited Stevenson, who arrived in Greenland and came to command in person. He immediately ordered to get ready for departure!

Last time, I just used a light aircraft and dropped four paratroopers. This time, I need to throw two large gliders!

In history, the British used the Halifax bomber, a four engine heavy bomber. It was easy to perform this task. Unfortunately, with Britain's early occupation by Germany, this bomber did not come out at all.

At the same time, in order to avoid political trouble, the United States provides C-47 transport aircraft, which is exactly the same as the DC-3 for civil aviation. In case of an accident, it can cover up the past.

At the same time, the test flight of the most proud "Hosa" glider in World War II was successful. The glider with a wingspan of 27 meters can carry 32 infantry or 3.2 tons of combat equipment. Similarly, it has not entered the trial production stage.

The CG-4 military glider developed by the United States can be used by the British assault team. This kind of glider can carry two crew members and 13 infantry. In this way, one Sorty of 15 people and two gliders can accommodate 30 people. It should be said that there is no problem in blowing up the vimok chemical plant.

It was bitterly cold at night in Greenland. Stevenson stood in the snowy airport and looked at the plane about to go.

The Norwegian boys look energetic. The cold wind can't make them shrink back. The arduous task will only inspire them with greater courage!

"Boys, history will remember you. You are about to fight the bravest battle in order to win the world war." Stevenson said to them, "now, let's go and blow up the evil enemy's factory!"

The soldiers turned and ran into the glider. At last, friedyoff, who got on the glider, closed the cabin door, looked at the lights on the runway outside through the narrow cabin and retreated quickly.
