Chapter 976 Swallow Action

India.

In this era, India, which has not yet been divided, belongs to the vast South Asian subcontinent. Churchill, who fled here, and King George VI, as well as some of his subordinates, are discussing the intelligence of the United States.

Why did they bomb the heavy water factory in Norway? I have already explained to them initially. The Germans want to make a terrible weapon. This kind of weapon requires heavy water to produce. If the heavy water factory is blown up, the Germans can make this weapon. The process of making this horrific weapon was greatly slowed down.

If this kind of weapon is made, even the United States will not have to fight, and the war will be over.

So, the consequences are serious.

"What we can use is Greenland. If we take off bombers from here, we will be able to reach Norway's Wemok." Colin Bingers, the escaped Special Operations Minister, said to the people present: " However, the Vemok factory is surrounded by mountains, and if the planes fly over, it is impossible to carry out precision bombing. This requires a large number of bombers, and Greenland cannot take off and land too many aircrafts."

Greenland was originally a territory of Denmark. In last year's war, Germany occupied Denmark almost effortlessly. At that time, the United Kingdom immediately dispatched troops and occupied Greenland, which was regarded as a forward base.

After that, Greenland was handed over to the U.S. for management according to an agreement with the U.S. base to exchange weapons.

If you only look at the map, Greenland is a good base. Using Greenland as a springboard, it is easy to attack the German mainland, but this is only taken for granted.

Because almost most of Greenland is within the Arctic Circle, the whole island is cold all year round, which is a typical frigid climate.

In such an area, personnel activities are very rare. The entire huge area of ​​Greenland has a total population of less than 50,000. It is a world of ice and snow, and it is simply not affordable for ordinary people. If the US bomber force To be stationed here, it is absolutely a nightmare for the ground crew.

At the same time, the takeoff and landing of aircraft on ice is also full of risks, so it is possible to send one or two aircraft to fly by specialized personnel, but it is impossible to send a large number of bombers to bomb.

There can be no more fighters here, so Germany has always allowed the United States to occupy Greenland. Its strategic significance is not great, and now, Germany does not want to have a head-on conflict with the United States.

Now, you can just use Greenland as a springboard, so that your own personnel can pass smoothly!

"Wemok Chemical Factory is located on Mount Barron. We can first drop several commandos to Barron Mountain. After these commandos arrive near the factory and make corresponding preparations, we will send the commando team to join them by glider. This will blow up the chemical plant to ashes in one fell swoop," said Stevenson, head of the Security Coordination Bureau.

His idea was to copy the special operations of the Germans in the past. No matter what he did, the Germans did the best! This is really depressing.

"We're going to pick Norwegians to do it, preferably someone who's lived there, it's the most convenient," Churchill said.

Norway has also complied with Germany, which has not affected the lives of Norwegians too much. The locals are still locals, so if they send familiar people back, they can easily get local support.

"The action plan, let's call it the swallow, must be done beautifully," Churchill said.

Compared with last year, Churchill looks more old-fashioned, with a lot of white hair on his forehead, but, up to now, he still has not given up his ideals.

The Yanzi action plan started soon, because they couldn't wait for a long time, but unfortunately, they didn't know that their seemingly rigorous plan was actually full of loopholes.

The DGA-15 Nightingale is a small and nimble single-engine aircraft.

It was manufactured by Howard's Hughes Aircraft Company. After it was put on the market, it was well received by various parties, and the output was good. Now, the aircraft is equipped with a ski in the snow below, which is specially prepared for taking off and landing in the snow.

The Pratt & Whitney R-985 "Little Hornet" engine, which has been improved, uses oil pipe heating technology to prevent gasoline from freezing at low temperatures. Now, when the plane takes off from Greenland, it is already night.

Although it has not yet entered summer, but in the Arctic Circle, there is less time at night and a lot of time during the day. This moonlit night, the moon and stars are sparse, it is a good weather for flying!

The cabin is not large, and can accommodate five members, except for the pilot, that is, four passengers.

Bjorn Eric, a Norwegian who has been living in the Vymok area since he was a child, this time, in Operation Swallow, he signed up without hesitation and became the captain of the first team to enter.

The other three people beside him were also Norwegians. After the Norwegian king was forced to flee, they also wandered together, and finally reached India. Now, they can finally return to Norway again to perform a major mission!

Eric was very excited. He closed his eyes and thought about his task again. To him, it seemed to be a very simple task.

It was cold in the cabin, and in order not to be detected by the Air Force in Norway, the plane was lowered and almost flew over the sea.

Germany already has radar, and in Norway, although Germany does not have a large-scale garrison, there is still an air force and navy stationed there, and there must be detection radars on the coastline.

So they have to use small planes and fly at ultra-low altitudes to avoid being detected by radar. This is very important, and it is related to their life and death.

You can see pieces of floating ice on the sea, drifting with the ocean currents, and finally, the land is hazy in front of you.

The pilot pushed the control stick, and the small and flexible Nightingale went into the mountains. Because Norway is a long and narrow country, almost after drilling into the land, it was able to reach the sky above the target.

"Get ready to skydive!" Eric shouted. "Drop our gear first."

As the first team to enter, they also need to bring some things, such as food to eat, such as a radio to communicate with the rear, such as a strong light flashlight to guide the subsequent entering aircraft, and so on.

These equipments are big bags one by one, with parachutes hanging on them. Several people work together to push these things down, and then, holding their heads, jump down from the cabin door one by one.

Below, is their homeland.
