Chapter 175: Ark of Doomsday
Chapter 175 The Ark of Doomsday
Leaning against the rubble, Lynn loaded bullets into the mullet gun as fast as possible. The weather in May was no longer chilling, but the tense and continuous battle left his hands covered with sweat, and the contaminated mud and dust. The bullets occasionally slipped during the loading process, but at this time, he didn't bother to pick them up and filled one of them with twenty rounds, and the other only had ten rounds. Then, he hurriedly stood up under the urging of the compact gunfire, covering his companions while shooting and advancing towards the street.
Although the failure of a blocking battle is far more than a "defeat as a mountain of defeat", the Soviet soldiers who were spontaneous or ordered to stay were not all "decisive" to the end. The victory of the war is near. Faced with such an extremely fierce German armored unit, the main force of our side retreated without support, and suddenly fell into a situation of being attacked from both sides. Only a few thought they were invisible enough to continue waiting for opportunities, or insisted on fighting with a righteous mentality, and these people became the last "super" for Lin En and others.
At most no more than two cigarettes, accompanied by a long-handled grenade thrown towards the Soviet soldiers, the last deafening sound of gunfire on the battlefield quickly slid down, and soon the only sound of German tanks and vehicles moving forward was left in his ears. It was confirmed that the subordinate soldiers were all safe and sound, and then Lin Neng lay in the ruins and shouted to the streets: "We are the 11th Night Battle Task Force in Berlin, our own people! We consume a lot of money in the battle and need treatment and supplies!"
Someone on the street quickly replied: "Rise up the weapon in your hand and come out!"
At this time, no one cared whether this posture was embarrassing. Under the leadership of Lin Neng, the remaining six soldiers stood up from the ruins and walked towards the road calmly and cautiously - only a dozen or twenty meters along the way, but they were worried that they would be coldly shot by the remaining Soviet troops at this time. Fortunately, bad luck did not come. When Lin Neng and his friends walked across the rubble pile on the street, several German soldiers holding assault rifles stepped forward to verify their identities, and allowed them to hold their weapons again. After deliberate observation, Lin Neng found that these soldiers were all armed SS, and the uniform cuffs exposed under one of them were the logo of the "First of the Heads-up Guard Flag Team".
Could it be...Lin En was shocked that the subsequent speculations far exceeded the records of orthodox historical materials, reminding him of those rumors that were regarded as nonsense.
After a moment, an officer wearing an M42 helmet and "pea" combat uniform got off from the armored command car parked by the road. While he bowed his head and bent forward, he looked around cautiously, as if a child who had just learned to cross the road.
When he arrived in front of Lin En and the others, the officer asked in a slightly urgent tone: "You killed the Soviet army's searchlight before?"
"Yes, sir!" Lin Neng replied immediately, and introduced to the officer the two biggest heroes who destroyed the Soviet searchlights. "This is Noah, our anti-tank shooter. He not only destroyed the Soviet truck loaded with the searchlights, but also killed a T34! This is Tanze, our sniper, he shot at least two searchlights! And..."
Before he could speak, the officer suddenly interrupted him and said in the tone of discovering the New World: "Lynn? Hey, Lynn Galgo, it's you!"
In the darkness, only the facial contour under the steel helmet was seen. Lynn looked carefully and saw that this was Captain Kate Ziggenke, the staff officer of the "Vampire" command center?
In the special operations command center with complete equipment and functions, Captain Ziggenke and Luka Motchig belong to the elite staff team under Bach. Their chief staff officer is Major Enke Valdes, who has a decisive style and outstanding ability. It is said that Bach will personally select a few of the most commanding and staff talents from each group of training trainees to enter the command center. After a long period of training, some of them can be successfully promoted to staff officers or even higher-level staff officers, while others like Lynn, transferred to the combat troops in the middle.
"Ah! Sir! How could it be you?" Lynn's tone was half surprised and half joy. When he met his own people, things would be much easier.
The SS captain had now worn the Major's Seal. Ziggenke glanced at the soldiers standing behind Lynn. Seeing that they were either hung up or covered in dust, he ordered a SS soldier beside him, "Take these brothers to the car behind to treat the wounds and replenish the supplies!"
Immediately afterwards, Ziegenke waved his head at Lynn: "Follow me!"
Following the SS major through the street and climbing onto the armored command vehicle parked by the road, Lynn immediately saw another old friend, Luka Motchig. There were two radio equipment on the car. In addition to the soldiers who operated the on-board machine guns, there was only one sergeant left, so Captain Motchig had to go on the battle himself. He was wearing headphones and holding a microphone, probably coordinating the front and rear vehicles of the armored convoy to keep the movement consistent.
Without waiting for him to finish the conversation, Ziggenke stepped forward and patted his shoulder, letting him see Lynn who had just gotten in the car.
At first glance, Motchig hadn't recognized it yet. When Lynn grinned and walked to the side, he widened his eyes, said to the last sentence of the microphone, quickly took off his headphones, and said excitedly: "Oh, isn't this our Lynn Galgo, a super combat hero? Why are you here? Just now..."
"It's hard to describe!" Lin En naturally hid his attempt to escape from Berlin, and then half-jokingly asked for credit: "My soldiers and I have cleared the big obstacles for you this time. Not only did we kill the searchlight, but we also destroyed Soviet tanks and many Soviet soldiers. Should we get the reward?"
"So it's you, no wonder! Tsk tsk, this is not an ordinary credit, Lynn, do you know what kind of convoy this is?" Mottchig said this, but Ziggenk stabbed the arm again. This action was taken into consideration by Lynn. He sat down against the wall of the car, took out his shell gun, and while loading bullets inside, he said calmly:
"I guess, Colonel Bach must be in the convoy, so I tried my best to lead the team to attack the Soviets, almost losing my life. What a pity... I am an outsider after all, aren't I?"
Mottcheg and Ziggenke looked at each other. Lynn's words and tone did not seem to be blamed. Similar to the sour words of half-aged children when they could not get a toy, it made people laugh, but they couldn't be angry. Motcheg immediately took out a cigarette from his pocket, lit it for Lynn himself, squatted and whispered: "It's not that I don't treat you as my own person, but we can't tell you some things before asking the colonel! You understand these rules!"
"So, Colonel Bach is indeed in the convoy?" Lynn asked back.
Mottchig closed his eyes to indicate default.
Lynn continued to ask: "Is this convoy escorting extremely important people?"
Motcheg didn't say yes or no, but hinted: "Hehe, no wonder even Colonel Bach often praises you as a very smart person, and it really has a future!"
Just as he filled the bullet, Lin En loaded the wreck gun, thinking, "Please tell the colonel for me that my soldiers and I are the most loyal and reliable. No matter what the mission is, as long as he gives the order, there will be no hesitation for a moment!"
After hearing this, Motchig said nothing, Ziggenke, who was beside him, said first: "It can be seen that Lynn, your soldiers are very brave and very good at fighting, but... everything has to be followed by the colonel's arrangement, right?"
"I know this!" Lynn took out the second thug gun, but there were only two bullets left in his pocket, so he had to touch it in his bag. But after the previous battle, there was not much inventory left. So he looked up and asked Ziggenke: "Sir, we had two sets of night vision equipment, but they were all unusable because the battery was exhausted. Do you have any spares in your fleet? In addition, we have severely lacked ammunition supplies. Can we provide more for us?"
Motcheg should have received instructions from Ziegenke with his eyes or expressions, and at this time he had returned to the radio position to pick up the headphones and microphone. Ziegenke replied: "Don't worry, let's report the situation to the colonel and see how he decides!"
Lynn was irrefutable. He listened silently as Motcheg reported the current situation to the people in a tank or armored vehicle in the convoy. Finally, he talked about the situation of Lynn's team of troops. Because he could not hear any sound in the headphones, he could only speculate out of nowhere what Colonel Bach told his subordinates' officers. Motcheg kept saying "understand", "Okay", "yes". After a while, he took off his headphones and stood up and walked over, squatted beside Lynn, and lowered his voice: "By our commander-in-chief of the operation, Colonel Laurenz Bach, personally ordered to approve the Sergeant Galgo and his soldiers to join the operation. Before revealing the following information, please - Lynn Galgo, swear allegiance to the head of the empire again!"
Since August 1934, every officer and soldier of the National Defense Forces must swear allegiance to the Head of State when joining the army, especially the SS and the soldiers of the armed SS. However, at this time, he was asked to swear to the Head of State again, and Lynn became increasingly sure of his bold guess just now. Before the answer was about to be revealed, he recited the famous oath word for word: "I solemnly swore allegiance to Adolf Hitler. I swear allegiance to him and my chief. Adolf Hitler: Long live the victory!" (The SS's oath is slightly different from the National Defense Forces)
Motchig finally looked at Zighnke, and received the recognition of the major. Then he solemnly said to Lynn: "Okay, our combat hero and sincere friend, the elite warrior of the 'Vampire' commando, Lyn Galgo, from now on, you have officially become a part of the 'Aryan Ark' plan. You must unconditionally keep all the secrets you see, hear, and know, and unconditionally dedicate your life to the head of the empire at any time! In a moment, you will ask your soldiers to swear and accept this supreme glory according to the process I just made!"
Aryan Ark?
When Lin Neng heard this word for the first time, all kinds of rumors related to the Third Reich of Germany emerged in his mind, the head of state was not dead, the flying saucer, the Aryan city, etc. Unexpectedly, these incredible things appeared in front of him one by one. With the last guess, he asked Motchig in a low voice:
"Who are we escorting where we are?"
Unfortunately, Captain SS did not intend to uncover all the answers to this - or, he did not know much.
