Chapter 754 Caucasus Mountains

In fact, this kind of handheld small walkie-phone was indeed used during World War II. Of course, the producers were the United States, which was not short of money... Germany, the Soviet Union and even Britain were afraid to move the idea of ​​only transmitting 1.5 kilometers because of lack of resources, because this was a huge waste for them: although one was not worth much, if it was to supply an army of 100,000, 200,000 or even millions, it would not be a small amount of money.

Of course, the United States doesn't care about this, so it was produced at 130,000 units, with a model of BC611. It can be said that the originator of mobile phones looks like the "big brother" in the past.

However, Qin Chuan made some improvements to it, that is, connecting the microphone and the receiver to the helmet with wires, which basically improved the demand for communication equipment in combat similar to "Rat Catching Operation".

Of course, Qin Chuan couldn't just wait like that... As the First Infantry Regiment mastered the tactics of helicopter rope-landing, the training soon entered the second stage: training in the mountains.

Qin Chuan and others are not unfamiliar with the Caucasus Mountains. When they were rushing to the Baku oil field, Qin Chuan and others climbed over the Caucasus Mountains under the leadership of the mountain division.

But the situation at this time is not the same as at that time... It was summer when we crossed before, but winter was already in the time. The Caucasus mountains were covered with snow, temperature, environment, etc., and they even directly pulled the German soldiers from 10 degrees to minus twenty degrees below zero and from the plain to the mountains.

The helicopter took Qin Chuan and others to fly towards the snow-capped mountains in half an hour, and arrived at the agreed location... The 1st Mountain Division Command located in the eastern section of the Caucasus Mountains.

The helicopter flew closer, and several red signal flares were fired from the white snow-capped mountains. There were still people waving red and black military flags on the snow-capped mountains, so the helicopter knew where it was time to land.

In fact, the helicopter did not land, but carried out cable landings over the target area... On the one hand, this is due to training needs, and on the other hand, it is worrying that the vibration during the helicopter takes off and lands causes an avalanche.

Of course, in addition to the soldiers who roped down, they also hung piles of supplies from the ropes... The troops need these supplies for training and life.

When Qin Chuan slid down, an officer wearing a thick cotton cloak came up and held Qin Chuan's hand enthusiastically and asked, "Major, do you still remember me?"

It took Qin Chuan a while to recognize Major General Freco, who was the first mountain division. He was so thin that he had a protruding cheekbones and a dark complexion, and he looked like he had become a different person.

"What happened, General?" Qin Chuan asked.

Major General Freco shook his head and said, "Let's go back to the fortifications. I don't want to chat outside in such weather!"

Qin Chuan and his subordinates followed Major General Freco forward with a deep and shallow snow layer. Although the landing point was not far from the fortification and seemed to be only more than 200 meters away, the soldiers were still out of breath when they climbed to the fortification.

"The height here is only three thousand meters!" Major General Freco said: "The air is thin and still within an acceptable range. If you go higher, you will find that it is a torture!"

The fortifications were left by the Soviets and were transformed from a cave. The inside was very simple. Most of the things were made of wood and stone. If it weren't for the rifles on the gun stand, it would be like a place where savages lived.

"Hey, gentlemen!" The baker opened a supply bag and took out the bread from it and greeted the officers and soldiers in the fortifications: "We have brought you bread, and we need..."

Before he finished speaking, the officers and soldiers "coaxed" to snatch them up and snatch them up.

"Now!" Major General Freco said to Qin Chuan: "I can answer your question, Major. Because the mountains are closed due to heavy snow, we have not received supplies for a while!"

"I'm sorry, General!" Qin Chuan said: "I just learned about this!"

"No!" Major General Freco said: "You don't need to be sorry, we know this."

"You mean...you know helicopters?"

"Yes, of course!" Major General Freco replied: "They told us about the helicopter, saying that such a magical plane could bring us supplies, but it would take a wait!"

"They can choose to let the helicopter send a batch of supplies first!"

"They won't do that!" Major General Freco said: "On the one hand, we can still stick to it, and on the other hand, they are worried that it will expose the effects of the helicopters too early. You know, the Transcaucasus is full of Soviet spies!"

Qin Chuan nodded when he heard this.

This is also one of the reasons why the First Infantry Regiment did not conduct snow mountain training until this time...

Although the Soviet army knew that the German army had helicopters, they did not realize what role the helicopters could play in the Caucasus Mountains.

If the Caucasus was transporting supplies and scrambling troops from the beginning, the spies located in the Caucasus would soon report what they saw to the Soviet army... Helicopter transportation can be said to be hidden because it is flying in the sky and is easily discovered.

Therefore, the German security division needed to carry out several large-scale radio search and confiscation activities in the Caucasus, especially near the helicopter flight route.

Qin Chuan handed Major General Freco a piece of bread. Major General Freco was still as a general at first, but soon he stuffed bread into his mouth desperately and chewed it on big mouths.

Major General Freco asked vaguely while eating: "So, what we just saw was a helicopter, right?"

"Yes!"

“Good to know it’s true!”

"You mean..."

"That's a rumor!" Freco said: "Some people say that helicopters don't exist, that's just an excuse to deceive us into sticking to it here."

Qin Chuan nodded to show his understanding.

At this moment, he seemed to feel the almost isolated state of the 1st Mountain Division stationed on the Caucasus Mountains.

Freco continued: "If you want to train, I suggest you get faster, because I believe the Soviets will soon launch an attack on the Caucasus!"

As he said that, Freco shook his head: "It's hard to imagine that they would attack the Caucasus Mountains at this time, and they must be crazy!"

Qin Chuan felt that the Soviets were not crazy.

Because from the perspective of the Soviet army, choosing to attack the Caucasus at this time will have many benefits, such as the Soviets' cold-resistant and familiar with the terrain, etc.

At least, this would be much better than their attack on Baku from sea.

But Qin Chuan believed that the Soviet army did not consider the helicopter when making this decision.
