Chapter 228 Jiang Gan Steals the Book

"Stop them!" Qin Chuan shouted, and fired at the jeep.

Of course, this shot was impossible to hit.

Other German soldiers also raised their guns and fired, but at this time the jeep had already driven a distance and the two spies were very experienced and crouched down, so although the gunfire was dense, it did not hit the target. Only two bullets broke the windshield of the jeep... The German soldiers were not acting, most of them were unaware, so the shooting was real.

"Don't let them run!" Colonel Slaine ordered loudly: "Catch up with them!"

German soldiers jumped onto jeeps and cars, and then "boom" they chased after them in the sound of the car's engine.

Some German soldiers raised their guns and fired in the car, but it was very difficult to shoot a high-speed jeep from a shaky car, so the bullets flew around the target but not many hit it.

The mission of the Baldia Division was to lay mines on the front line, and the mines would leave passages between the mines for their troops to enter and exit... The two spies were obviously very familiar with this passage, so they drove the jeep in the desert and turned left and right and quickly passed through the minefield. On the contrary, the German soldiers chasing behind were restricted everywhere because they were unfamiliar with the minefield. A jeep was blown up into the sky because it went off the track and ran over a mine.

The car following behind had to stop because the blown-up jeep blocked the passage, but finally two jeeps successfully passed through the passage and chased it.

But they didn't catch up with the spy in the end, because the British army soon discovered the movement here and then understood what happened... The spy tied a white headscarf to the rearview mirror and fluttered in the wind. This was a way of identification agreed by the British army and the spy.

So the artillery fire from the British direction came quickly, and with the smoke rising into the sky, a jeep was blown up into the sky, and several German soldiers died on the spot. Seeing that the situation was not good, the other jeep turned around and drove back to its own camp.

"Fire, fire!" Colonel Slain yelled angrily, "Blow those two bastards to pieces, don't let them get away!"

Colonel Mario hurriedly organized the mortar troops to fire.

But the quality of the Baldia Division can be imagined. The few shells they fired were completely blind. One of them almost hit the target. The explosion point fell near the jeep, and the air wave raised the jeep to the other side... This made Qin Chuan so nervous that he almost cried out. If this shot hit, his carefully planned "Jiang Gan Stealing Books" would be completely bankrupt.

But the two spies did not disappoint Qin Chuan in the end. Although one of the spies was injured by shrapnel, they still drove the jeep and successfully escaped from the range of the mortar.

At the same time, another round of shells came from the British direction...These shells were obviously used to suppress the German artillery fire to cover the escape of the two spies, so the matter became a foregone conclusion.

Colonel Slain and Qin Chuan, who were lying on the ground to avoid the shells, smiled at each other. Everything went smoothly. Now it depends on whether the British will be fooled.

The two spies who escaped were Egyptians. They were trained by the British intelligence forces to infiltrate Libya to collect intelligence.

Obed was one of them.

When Obed returned to the British line of defense, he was frustrated... They had hoped to exchange some valuable intelligence for a generous reward from the British, but now not only did they get nothing, but they were injured.

Obed's injury was not serious, but his partner was hit in the head by shrapnel and fainted. I'm afraid it will be difficult to save his life.

"Did you get any information from the Germans?" A British captain asked Obed. He saw that Obed was also covered in blood and was worried that he would die before he could tell the information.

"No, nothing!" Obed replied, "We were just discovered, and then we stole a car and escaped back!"

The British captain was disappointed when he heard this, as if to say that they should just not come back, and they wasted so many shells of the British Empire.

At this time, a British soldier handed the captain a map and said, "Sir, we found this in the jeep!"

The British captain took the map and took a look, then he widened his eyes and said to Obed, "Oh, you are such a lucky guy, you may have accidentally made a great contribution!"

The map was quickly sent to Montgomery.

Montgomery, who was worried about choosing a breakthrough point, was stunned when he saw the map.

"How did you get it?" Montgomery asked Deguingamp: "Is it reliable?"

"Our two spies brought it back accidentally!" Deguingamp replied: "It is extremely reliable. I have asked about the whole process and there is no doubt. At the same time, I have also compared our topographic map, and there is not much difference with this map..."

The reason why there is a difference is that the British often cut corners, and some places even let the colonial army complete the surveying.

"In addition!" Deguingamp paused and continued: "I also contacted other spies, and the intelligence they sent is basically consistent with this map!"

Montgomery nodded, and then immersed himself in studying this map.

After a while, Montgomery found a suitable breakthrough... a place called Aguila, which was defended by the Italian 132nd Armored Division.

"Italians!" Montgomery pointed to the map and said: "Although they have many tanks, most of them are M13 tanks that are vulnerable!"

"Yes!" This idea coincided with Deguingamp's: "More importantly... the Lagier area is a hard ground suitable for tank operations. Our armored divisions can easily defeat the Italian armored forces and then surround the German infantry, and the German 15th and 21st Armored Divisions on both wings cannot rush over to fill this gap in a short time!"

"Yes!" Montgomery raised the map and said, "We must act as soon as possible, otherwise... the Germans will most likely change their deployment after realizing that their defense map has fallen into our hands!"

"Yes, General!" Deguingamp replied, "We have exactly the same idea!"

So the British army immediately began to mobilize troops and prepare to launch an attack.

Rommel, who was in command, cheered when he heard the news.

"Good job, Lieutenant!" Colonel Olbrich said, "The British were fooled!"

"No, Colonel!" Qin Chuan replied, "We can't be sure if they were fooled!"

"Yes!" Rommel said, "We can only be sure of this when the main force of the British appears in Agila. Then we can celebrate!"

What the German army needs to do now is to concentrate its equipment and troops on both sides of Agila to prepare for an ambush.
