Battle of the Third Reich

Gandino's guerrillas became the biggest gangsters nearby. They played the banner of punishing the traitors who cooperated with Germany, and unscrupulously plundered the farmers and wealthy merchants in the surrounding towns.

The looting made him quickly gather a large number of materials, and at the same time, he also made his strong reputation. Some young people who do not know the truth regard him as a hero.

Gandino's men and women swelled like snowballs, and soon reached the bottleneck of development. In order to obtain more food and supplies to feed this unit, the former army sergeant took a bloodbath to wash a mountain village.

With his men, he killed all the Albanian immigrants in the village. He even used a small knife to cut off the head of the village head. He also put this gray-haired head with a wooden stick and inserted it at the roadside of the village. There was also a wooden board hanging under it, with the blood of the victim saying “This is the shameful end of the betrayal of the motherland”.

Gandino also eloquently quibbled that this village has taken Albanians, and now Albania is helping the Germans to fight and treat the Albanian Italians, how could it not be a traitor. So Bill Gandino in the mountains near Maniago quickly became a role used by his parents to stop his children.

For well-known reasons, the Italian government lost control of this area, and the local German garrison did not care much about these armed groups. They only paid attention to the safety of the supply line. As long as the guerrillas did not come over to harass, the Germans were tacit. Don't take the initiative to clear the war.

For a time, guerrillas like Gandino appeared like mushrooms in the Alps, Trentino, Italy, in the provinces of Adige and Veneto, and near the border with Yugoslavia. These self-proclaimed guerrillas are actually bandits. There are only a dozen of them, and as many as five or six hundred. The size of the gang depends on the resources available to the leader. At this time, as long as some people can get money and grain, they can immediately pull up a team in the north.

The Germans did not use force to suppress such armed groups in their own control areas. Instead, they deliberately helped and secretly promoted the development of certain forces.

The German garrison and some right-wing gangs started a deal, and exchanged various materials for the other party to guarantee the local security. So guerrillas of different factions began to attack each other, dividing their spheres of influence with corpses. They were extremely keen on killing each other, and then used the heads of guerrillas from the enemy factions to exchange food and bullets with the Germans.

From the outsider's perspective, the complex mountainous regions have joined forces, and it seems that the situation has become uncontrollable. But professionals will see that there is actually a delicate balance between these gangs, and the weight of this balance has always been in the hands of the German Wehrmacht.

"There is a guerrilla warfare expert among them, and I can smell the smell he emits." Sergeant Fam knelt on one leg beside the extinguished bonfire, using a scorched dead branch, toggle the gray-black ember.

"Fifteen people, two horses, eight mules, the numbers are all right." Sergeant Stoker dialed the moist horse dung on the ground with his boots.

"They walked for less than an hour. The mules carried heavy cargo and could not go too fast." Sergeant Meyer put his sniper rifle on his arm and observed the dense forest around him through a telescopic sight. Mountain beams.

"Bill Gandino, a cunning beast." Major Conig put the silver cigarette case back in his pocket, took out the lighter, and lit his Astra cigarette with golden filter.

"Sir, you predict how soon we can catch up with them." A captain officer took a picture of the camera around the campfire with a camera.

"I'm not a wizard, Pete, I can't make a prediction." Conig said with a smile, smoothing the hem of the Shan mountain camouflage coat.

"You don't move like this, I'll take a picture for you." Captain Pete pointed the lens at the major and adjusted the aperture quickly.

"You should leave some film for the soldiers, captain." The major continued to smile, deliberately lowering the brim of the mountain combat hat.

"This is the last one in this roll." The captain walked quickly to the camera's reel while walking to the major.

"They said you have been personally received by the head of state." Pete removed the film from the camera.

"Why think about asking this question, before you join, you should have read my file, Captain Pete." Conig exhaled.

"Paper and real people are two different things. This is a well-known truth. I am actually interested in the head of state. Is he real and handsome like the photos?"

"Yes, I felt a little indescribable when I saw him at that time, like facing a deity. He personally wore this Iron Cross medal to me and shook hands with me cordially." Kang Nigg said that his face was full of reverence, this experience has been regarded as the glory of this life.

"The head of state is as approachable as the rumor, what he said to you." Pete's face was envious and curious.

"He said, you are doing very well, Captain Connig, your family will be proud of your achievements, and I am very happy that the Third Reich has such a good soldier as you." Connie Ge said in Xu Jun's tone.

"Then, he put this on my chest." The major wiped his chest with an iron cross medallion with his finger.

"This is really enviable, major." Pete's eyes looked at the medal brightly.

"You will also have a chance, Captain." Connig smiled and patted the Captain's arm.

He knew that the captain was an investigator of the Eye of Odin, and officers of this status rarely appeared directly on the front line unless they were rumored special operations players. Konig participated in several operations of the Eye of Odin and learned more about this department than ordinary people.

"Thank you major, I will work hard." Pete rolled the camera belt and stuffed it into the sundries bag behind his waist. He did not join the team to take pictures. He needed to record in detail everything he saw in this operation. These materials will be compiled into the latest army textbook compiled by the headquarters.

Mountain guerrilla warfare and anti-guerrilla warfare are important subjects that the Germans are studying. The Germans tried to find a more efficient tactic in the process of clearing the Italian guerrillas.

Seeing that Germany and Italy are about to sign a terminal agreement, no time for the lively drama to come to an end. Gandino's gang has swelled too fast during this time, and it is likely that it will not be too big if he goes on. He must completely eliminate this scourge before he is out of control.

Fortunately, the Sicilian did not change the nature of greed and brutality, and it caused a lot of anger in this area. The German army just borrowed the head of this beast and brushed its hearts in the hearts of the Italian people.

The character of Gandino's men is similar to that of this leader. They only need a suitable price, and they are willing to betray anyone. The German side now has full control over the whereabouts of the beast from the mouth of his most trusted assistant.

Don't look at the brutal iron-blood extinction of humanity that Gandino displayed on weekdays, no one would think that this guy is an extremely cowardly person who fears death. But think about it too. If it weren't, he wouldn't be a deserter.

Gandino never left his main force too far. He always carried his most trusted party members. With the large number of gangs and a wide range of activities, unless he dispatched troops above the level of the regiment, it would be difficult to wipe them out. However, considering the cost of completing this task, this is obviously somewhat unrealistic.

How to execute Gandino became an interesting topic for Odin's Eye. This time, the team led by Major Conig was used to test the decapitation tactics proposed by the head of state.

The head of state only put forward some amazing tactical ideas at the meeting. As for how to do it, he asked the military to explore it by himself to fill in the gaps with actual combat experience. (To be continued.)
