Chapter 1745: landing

so cold!
In the cabin, everyone wrapped their military coat tightly. The glider was not completely sealed, so the height was not too high. At the same time, cold wind could still be poured in from the gap, almost the same temperature as the outside.
Nestor's hands were rubbed vigorously, almost numb, he looked at the altimeter, there was still less than 800 meters high, and at the same time, high mountains appeared again in front of him.
Opening his eyes wide, Nestor carefully searched and searched. Just between the mountains in front, a gap suddenly appeared, yes, right here!
Nestor pushed the joystick, kicked the rudder, and the bloated giant glider flew towards the slit, which happened to be the valley between the two mountains!
If you look at it from a distance, the canyon is not wide, even just a short distance wider than the wings of a giant glider. It seems that as long as there is a slight accident, it will hit the nearby mountain peak.
However, these two gliders were like Swifts, flying freely and swiftly into the valley.
This is a necessary route. If you fly past the top of the mountain, there will not be enough route to lower the altitude for a while, and then you will land.
At the same time, if you find the right valley, it is easy to find the predetermined landing site No. 1.
The glider continued to lower its height. At the same time, the people in the cabin behind also opened their eyes and got ready to work!
Along the way, his body was going to be numb, and Skorzner shook his arm and felt that his energy was slowly recovering.
Ready to land!
The glider was still flying forward, flying, constantly changing directions around the winding valley, and suddenly, it was bright.
In front, there is already Gotthob, the largest city on the island, and there are still some buildings. The area of ​​the city is not small, and you can see it from a distance!
Godthab is on the west coast of Greenland. At the same time, Germany must land from the front if it wants to cross the sea.
Therefore, the U.S. defenders here are all setting up positions on the coastline and intending to fight bravely during the landing in Germany. Behind Gothab, it is an absolutely safe area, because there is The rolling mountains!
The Germans are not stupid enough to drop paratroopers in the east of Gotthob. It is definitely a death hunt. At the same time, because there are not many defenders on the island, there is not much defense in the east.
It's empty here.
"Attention, prepare to land." After saying that, Nestor slammed the joystick, and the giant glider almost hit the ground.
The height is too high, he must lower it quickly.
In the front, that small flat area almost the size of a football field is their best landing site.
When the glider dived down, Nestor pulled up when it was about to hit the ground, and at the same time, almost as soon as it pulled up, the wheels of the plane were in contact with the ground.
The wheel bounced again and swayed in the air for a while before it landed again and slid forward. Nestor stepped on the brakes and steadily stopped the glider at the end of the clearing.
"Quick, quick, quick!" Skolzner shouted loudly when he stopped. Everyone started to act, quickly opened the hatch and ran down.
The cold wind was blowing like a knife, and the temperature here was several degrees colder than Iceland!
At the same time, Skolzner was also very satisfied. It is probably only his subordinates who can easily land the glider in this cold wind.
"Buzz, buzz." The engine of the IWC truck was started. The sound was loud. The typical gasoline engine is not particularly suitable. Germany still likes its own diesel trucks, but intelligence shows that it is not in Greenland. Without Ford’s diesel trucks, it may be that the diesel trucks are not easy to start in extreme cold weather, so I can only have this gasoline vehicle.
Climbing over from the front cockpit, Nestor got on the IWC truck. Now his duties continue to be the driver. He just drove the glider and now drives the car.
The hatch was opened, Nestor drove the truck and got off, then stepped on the brakes.
A famous soldier skillfully jumped into the truck and sat full in the back, while in the front, Skorzner opened the door and entered the cab.
Almost at the same time, the second glider also landed. Using superb technology, the pilots almost stopped behind the first one, and they drove out the car quickly.
Two cars, more than 80 people, swiftly headed towards Gotthob.
Skolzner, dressed in uniform, looked so energetic~EbookFREE.me~ He pressed his hat brim and lit a camel cigarette.
The two cars continued on the mountain road. Skorzner looked at his watch. It was already more than one o'clock in the morning.
The road is still not very dark, no driving lights are needed, and the two cars continue to move forward, getting closer and closer to the city.
Just after turning around an intersection, looking away from a distance, Nestor's face suddenly changed.
"There is a checkpoint ahead." Nestor said to Skorzner: "Should we rush over directly?"
The crossing is barbed wire, and there is a machine gun position next to it. It seems that it is specially designed to deal with the German army that may infiltrate. The visual inspection is the level of an infantry squad. But now there are no people outside. The weather is freezing. They must be staying in the nearby tent. Now.
Blocked by the barbed wire, it is impossible to rush through. If a bullet hits it now, it should be able to wipe out all the people in the tent, but Skorzner suppressed this impulse and calmly said: "Actually, first Don't push hard."
When investigating intelligence, there is no checkpoint here. It seems that it was just set up last night. It’s best to get it through first. If it doesn’t work, then do it. However, once you do it, you will take action on the follow-up. It will have an impact and will startle the snake.
Nestor nodded, stepped on the accelerator, and continued forward rumblingly.
At this time, the sound of the car rumbling loudly, this movement quarreled the American soldiers who were resting inside. A soldier carrying an M1 carbine, dangling a cigarette, shook his head slowly, and looked at the car coming here. He asked in his throat: "Which part of you are you?"
"The 69th Infantry Division, quickly open the barricades for us." Skolzner said in fluent English: "This ghostly weather, it's really cold, everyone is freezing, and quickly enter the city to rest."
