Chapter 1713： Sled patrol

The capital of Greenland, the Governor's House.

The 36-year-old Governor Eske Buren is quietly listening to the analysis of the American intelligence officer on the side.

In those days, the wealthy and weak Denmark surrendered under the attack of the Germans.

Under the windows of the Amalienborg Palace, soldiers of the Danish Royal Guard used to re-fire several times with the Germans, almost the only resistance. Greenland is a Danish territory.

Just after the fall of Denmark, Greenland also faced its own choices.

After Denmark surrendered, Britain quickly occupied Iceland and the Faroe Islands to avoid being taken advantage of by the Germans. However, Greenland was different.

Greenland is the largest island in the world. Now there are 22,000 local residents on it, with only limited self-defense forces. For a period of time, Greenland was almost undefended.

Later, when Germany swept across the European continent, even Britain itself faced a serious threat of invasion. After consulting with the deputy governor, Bren decided to turn to the protection of the United States.

Therefore, at the appeal of the Danish Minister to the United States Henrik Kaufman, the US government declared that the Monroe Doctrine principle applies to Greenland. The United States decided to open a consulate in Gotthob, the capital of Greenland. In this way, Greenland was within the protection of the United States.

The war is still going on, and the situation is getting worse and worse for the United States. The United States has deployed certain military forces in Greenland, especially the aviation force, using Greenland as a springboard to attack Europe.

Unfortunately, these actions did not contain the deterioration of the situation. For now, Greenland has reached the most dangerous time. Everyone knows that the next military action of the Germans is to invade Greenland.

"We found suspicious radio signals in the northern part of Greenland." American intelligence officer Hertz said: "We suspect that the Germans have sent some meteorological personnel into the northern part of Greenland."

Most areas of Greenland are ice caps, which are not suitable for human activities at all. The temperature is low, the wind is strong, and radio signals appear in uninhabited places. It is certainly not the gathering of the opponent's large forces, only the meteorological personnel.

"The Germans have begun to collect our weather information, indicating that this war is in sight." The American consul in Greenland said: "Now, we can't hesitate anymore. We must mobilize the men of Greenland for Fight to defend Greenlane."

Will it be ruled by Germany like Iceland, or will it continue to hold high the banner of freedom and fight for the free world? The residents of Greenland will definitely make their own right choices.

When the radio signal was discovered, the United States paid great attention to it and sent reconnaissance planes frequently to conduct reconnaissance flights in the northern region. However, due to the special meteorological conditions in the polar regions, it was very difficult to observe the ground from the air, and they could not quickly Find the goal.

We have to rely on the help of native residents here.

"What are we going to do?" Governor Bren asked.

"We hope to mobilize all the adult men on the entire Greenland. Form a sled patrol to patrol the entire Greenland and search the German weather force." Penfield said.

It’s not easy to find in the air. It depends on the ground. Although the environmental conditions here are quite harsh, the natives can adapt. If they are well prepared, they will search for thousands of kilometers on the ice sheet of Greenland. no problem.

Use the sled patrol to search the ice cap area, find the target, and clear the target.

The Germans are cautious. Without a perfect grasp of the weather conditions in Greenland, it is impossible to launch an attack on Greenland, and the United States will have more buffer time.

Governor Bren did not hesitate: "Okay, then as the Governor, I will immediately announce to the adult men on the island, hoping that they can stand up consciously."

There are only 9,000 adult men on the entire island, but they are definitely not ambiguous.

(The hero of East China seems to have discovered a pattern. All men in these cold regions are addicted to alcohol and aggressive. I don't know if they are right.)

Settlement in the Scholesby Strait in northeastern Greenland.

"On our island, Germans appeared. Now, we need to get them out!" Niels, the person in charge of the settlement, shouted loudly.

He didn't need to use a horn, nor did he need to do other work. In this small settlement, there were only 27 people, 26 of whom were hunters, plus a woman who cooked for them.

Niels screamed, and suddenly, from the wooden house in the settlement, hunters in twos and threes carried their harpoons and came out: "The Germans are here?"

They are of different ages. The old is over fifty, and the young is less than twenty. The polar sun makes their skin a little dark, although it is cold, they still bare the skin on their faces. I am not afraid of getting frostbite.

They are one of the ancient people here, the Inuit. Their settlement is a thousand miles away from the capital of Greenland, Nuuk, and they are veritable corners of the world. They hunt marine mammals for a living and lead a hunting life. In the summer, you can go kayaking and harpoon hunting for narwhals. In winter, you can go on a dog sled.

Kong Wu's powerful arms held the harpoon, and their faces were full of anger: "Those guys, dare to come over? Let's find them out!"

"Come here, sign up here. We are divided into three groups and searched according to different areas." Niels said: "We still need several people in charge of weather forecasting, and there will be Americans who will be radio transmitters."

A group of huskies ran out with excitement wagging their tails, and the hunters got on their sleighs and quickly disappeared into the white plains.

This is their home. They are familiar with every inch of the land here. On their sleighs, they pull the fresh seal meat they just hunted a few days ago. Even if they run out halfway, they can hunt on the spot and try the polar bears. .

Although their weapon is a harpoon, no one dares to underestimate their combat effectiveness. In this severe cold zone, the cold will turn the strongest enemy into a sheep. In cold weather, various modern weapons will encounter malfunctions and the bolt will be frozen. Only the harpoon is the most effective weapon.

Find the German weather unit, pull them out, and bring them back!

Such scenes are being staged everywhere in Greenland. At this time, Greenland has not had the pace of urbanization as later generations, nor has the life of hunters struggling because of the melting of glaciers. Almost all men in Greenland are hunters. . 8) For more wonderful novels, welcome to visit everyone's reading academy
