The Death List Novel - Chapter 139

Chapter 139 Plan Change
“Lieutenant Colonel, do you suspect that there are traitors among the three of them?” Grant asked as soon as he entered the room and sat down.

Skorzny nodded heavily. As the head of the Heracles Project, he was worried that the mission would fail. Gerhardt and Burke were both superpowers, but they had always served in the army. Moreover, they were low-ranking officers. There was almost no possibility that they were spies.

Kluger (Grant) is an interrogation expert at the SS Intelligence Service. He is arguably a mortal enemy of foreign intelligence personnel and is unlikely to be a spy. Although Weidenbaylor did not serve in the army, his status as a baron was very special.

Before he became a vampire, Weidenbaille had made great contributions to Germany during the Franco-Prussian War. His title of Baron was personally awarded by the German Emperor William I. It could be said that in all the wars of the German Empire, he had made outstanding contributions to his motherland, and such a person could not be instigated to revolt by the enemy.

As a result, only Mrs Monica and Dr Roberts were left with the possibility of betrayal, apart from Skorzny himself. Logically speaking, the PhD couple who had served in the Aryan Ark Corps for a long time should not be spies. However, they had disappeared once before coming to Casablanca, adding a lot of suspicions to the two of them.

Even though the two of them were patriots, scientists were different from soldiers. They had been forced to serve in the Aryan Ark Forces, living almost half-secluded lives, and Leo Roberts had become a ghost in biochemical research. Perhaps they already had a grudge against the empire, so it was also possible to take advantage of this opportunity to join the Allies.

As for Lady Monica, she was the most likely candidate to betray the empire among the eight superhumans. She was originally the widow of a Juncker noble. During the Weimar Republic, Germany abolished the noble system, and the Third Empire never restored it. If Mrs Monica hates the government for this, it is understandable.

“Lieutenant Colonel, can you tell us what Mrs. Monica’s superpower is?” Qin Lun frowned and asked. Among these superhumans, only Lady Monica’s ability was something he had never seen before.

“Mrs. Monica is a sandstorm!” Scolzny hesitated for a moment before saying, “She doesn’t like to spread this ability everywhere, so I didn’t tell you before!”

Qin Lunruo nodded. No wonder she hated rainy days. He was able to overtake them and catch up to Skorzny without anyone noticing.

The eight superpowers chosen by Skorzny had their own responsibilities in this plan. Without one link, the burden on the others would multiply and the chances of failure would increase significantly.

The first task of the Heracles Plan was to assassinate the leaders of the three countries. Mrs. Monica was responsible for covering the operation. If the Rangers had a sandstorm as cover, the success rate would be much higher.

Kieran played Gerthard as a suppressor. His sniper rifle was not only an assassination weapon, it was also responsible for suppressing the backup of the Allied forces. Blast expert Captain Burke was a saboteur. Whether the assassination would succeed or not depended on him.

Baron Weidenbaylor was a scout on the battlefield. A large group of vampire bats scattered all over the battlefield could allow the few rangers to always be one step ahead of the Allied forces. Grant’s interrogation specialist needs to be able to obtain clues about the unconventional warfare forces of the three leaders and the Allied forces when necessary.

Giant Leo was in charge of the frontal assault on the few fortifications outside the venue. Infrasound and his enormous size were equivalent to a humanoid tank. His wife, Dr. Keller, is responsible for interpreting intelligence on the Allied forces’ unconventional warfare forces.

Lieutenant Colonel Scorzini himself was in the middle of the task. The lion-shaped man’s extraordinary strength and speed allowed him to support any part of the mission to make up for the unforeseen situation.

If these eight superhumans with a clear division of labor were combined with an Oningburg Special Fort squadron, they would form an incomparably powerful force. It could be said that once they gained the first chance, they would be suppressed in a short period of time, regardless of how many Allied troops there were in Casablanca. During this period of time, whether it was assassinating the three Allied leaders or obtaining decisive information, there was a great success rate.

However, now that there were three more superpowers missing, they could no longer completely suppress the Casablanca Alliance Army. Moreover, judging from the situation when they landed, the Allied Powers had also sent out superpowers. The attack had lost its sudden nature, and this operation had a lot of variables.

The rest of the Gentlemen’s Alliance remained silent, aware of the difficulty of the task.

“You guys go rest first! There is still one and a half days left before the Allied Heads of State meet. Tomorrow, we will go to the meeting place reserved for the Allied forces first, and then decide whether the plan can be implemented!” Skorzny said calmly.

“Lieutenant Colonel, I’m afraid we don’t have time to rest!” Qin Lun suddenly said, “If the Alliance Army had known of our existence, would they have called the summit earlier?”

“That’s possible!” Scolzny raised his eyebrows and turned to look at Qin Lun. “Before you came, I had discussed this possibility with Weidenbaille, but hasty action would only destroy our entire army. In fact, without Mrs. Monica’s sandstorm cover and the giant’s offensive capabilities, our assassination attempt would have basically failed!”

“Are you trying to implement a backup plan?” Qin Lun asked with a frown.

“Yes, the baron’s ability is very difficult to guard against. As long as we have one or two days to investigate, we can still try to steal information about the Alliance’s unconventional forces.” “You are the elites of the empire. Even if the operation really fails, I will not be able to bury all of you in Casablanca,” Skorzny said helplessly.

‘”Lieutenant Colonel, we don’t have Madame Monica or Giant Leo. We still have the ability to attack. At least in Casablanca, we still have one thing that is definitely stronger than the Allies!” Qin Lun suddenly narrowed his eyes and said indifferently.

“Absolutely stronger than the Alliance Army?” Skorzny was stunned when he heard this and asked with uncertainty, “You mean …”

Qin Lun smiled and pointed to the west. “We also have the Gnyssenau. Casablanca is a port city. All the buildings in the city are within range of the battleship …”

Skorzny fell silent. The Gnyssenau was indeed an unpredictable piece of chess for the enemy. The warship Gnyssenau was a subordinate of the Navy. Other than him, the rest of the Rangers did not know that they would ride on the Gnyssenau. The traitors did not expect that either.

Most importantly, even if the traitors had gathered the Alliance Army now, this information would probably not have attracted the attention of the upper echelons of the Alliance Army. Otherwise, the Gnyssenau would have been bombed by now.

“Although the Gneisenau is responsible for sending us to Casablanca, it has no affiliation with the SS Intelligence Service. It may not agree to shelling Casablanca!” Scorzini thought for a while and smiled bitterly. “You guys rest first. I’ll send a report to the warship now. Whether or not I agree will depend on the Brigadier General’s judgment!”

“I’m going out to investigate!” Weidenbailer shook his head and sighed, muttering in a low voice, “It’s really hard work!”

Qin Lun and the other members revealed a smile. They were basically certain that the captain of the Gnyssenau would agree to the shelling plan. The Gnyssenau’s attack was clearly a sabotage mission to the Atlantic Ocean, but it was actually an escort for the Heracles Project.

The Heracles Plan was only a special forces operation plan, but it involved the follow-up to the war. German generals, despite their rivalry between the navy and the army, were able to distinguish between right and wrong.

However, the Gnysenau was chasing after the two English fleets. If she stayed for more than half a day, she would probably be in a very dangerous situation. She would probably be like her sister ship, the Sharnhorst, sleeping in the Atlantic Ocean for the rest of her life.

Although Skorzny told everyone to rest first, no one was sleepy at this moment. Grant and Kieran sat at the side playing cards, while Borg and Skorzny were discussing the Allied Defense Diagram in Casablanca. The map of the Alliance’s defenses is the work of German intelligence over a period of more than 10 days.

After a while, Lin Feng, who had received a call from the Gnyssenau, returned to his room excitedly and handed the decoded telegram to Skorzny.

“Everyone, the general has agreed to our plan. At dawn, the Gnyssenau will launch an artillery attack on Casablanca.” After reading the telegram, Skorzny immediately gave the order, “I have ordered the intelligence personnel here to disperse and set out. They will provide the battleship with a detailed location of the shelling. We will start checking the watch now and set off in an hour!”

Scorzini placed the telegram on the table and summoned a small grayish-brown bat through the window. The little eyes of the bat emitted a green glow, and with exceptional humanity, they propped themselves up on the table with their small wings and crawled over the telegram, as if they were reading the contents of the telegram.

Half an hour later, Weidenbaylor returned to his hiding place. The baron’s gown was a little damaged, and his expression was very bad. It seemed that he had suffered some losses in the scouting.

“Baron, have you found the clubhouse of the leaders of the three kingdoms?” Skorzny asked cautiously.

“I’ve found three places where the Alliance Army is closely guarded, but I can’t tell which place is the summit meeting place!” Weidenbaylor picked up the tea on the table and gulped down. “These three places are very close to the city center. One of them is the largest museum with many fortifications and two American Sherman tanks at the entrance. This is most likely the resting place of the leaders of the three kingdoms!”

“Let’s go, let’s go!” A glint flashed in Skorzny’s eyes as he waved his hand decisively.
