章節 31: Chapter 031 | The Plan
The hotel where Luke and his party stayed was an important picturesque spot in a hilltop town, Taormina, on the east coast of Sicily.
The climate here was spring all the year round, with beautiful scenery.
There was a cliff on one side and the sea on the other.
Like stones, urban buildings were piled up on the stepped peaks of the mountain.
Luke had to agree, Alessandro is really good at what he does.
Or, to describe it more accurately, Alessandro knew how to please his superiors.
Luke came to the hotel called 'Walchiria' and learned that Alessandro had already reserved an entire third floor for him and his entourage.
Moreover, there were few reasons why he chose this small hotel with little reputation.
On one hand, because there were few guests, it wouldn't be too eye-catching;
On the other hand, the Walchiria was located at the top of the small town in Taormina.
If you stay in a room on the third floor, one only needs to open the window to overlook the whole town, feel the moist sea breeze, and hear the sound of the waves, making them feel inner tranquility.
Many people liked this feeling - Luke is no exception.
According to the plan, he needed Alessandro to recruit twenty well-trained gunmen and get a pass to enter Rome.
After calculating the time, Luke may stay in Taormina for 4 to 5 days.
It was a good thing to have comfortable accommodation and environment.
Luke and the team chose their own rooms - as a precaution, it would have been Dum Dum Dugan, or Dino Manelli, in the same room as the Captain.
This can play a preventive role, but also facilitate dealing with possible unexpected situations.
It's just that, after seeing Luke's great strength, members of the Howling Commandos had said that they were the ones who needed to be protected.
Therefore, the two rooms next to Luke became the hot items in the team.
In the end, Dum Dum Dugan, and Manelli, the two veterans, received the benefit of being 'protected by the super soldier'.
"In the next few days, Dugan and Manelli will take turns watching Alessandro. Although he looks like a wise man, we should also prevent him from making any stupid mistakes!"
In Luke's room, the members of Howling Commandos gathered to make plans for their next move.
In addition to Luke, who was their Captain, there were five other people in this team dispatched by the SSR.
Dum Dum Dugan, as a front-runner, was the most distinguished man in the team.
Dino Manelli, who is always taciturn and quiet, is a scout and an infiltration specialist.
The following team members were, respectively; The sniper Jimmy, called the 'Wild West', a marksman with 100% hit rate.
Jeff, in charge of the surprise attacks, and Kenneth, who was a gunner and experienced driver.
"Dugan and I will be posing as Berlin's secret emissary, with letters and necessary props to verify our identities - the Allies did capture a Berlin secret emissary two weeks ago, thanks to reliable information the SSR extracted from the Hydra assassin!"
Luke spreads out a map of Rome, with a clear layout of the troops on it.
"The rest of you will arrive in Rome with Alessandro's team of gunmen, and on the day of the operation, Jimmy, you will take the high ground - that's the spot! Jeff and Kenneth will lead the gun team and create chaos in Venice Square!"
"The chief officer guarding Sicily is Italian General Guzzoni. He has eleven local divisions and two German armored divisions. During this time, the Allies will carry out irregular bombing, and drive the fleet into the Strait of Tunisia, taking Pantelleria as a stronghold, creating the illusion of landing soon, and restraining Guzzoni's attention."
"Our task is to break into Venice Palace! It will take less than 24 hours to coerce Mussolini as a hostage and I believe the King of Italy will issue a proclamation to depose the Prime Minister! Anyone with foresight can see that the Axis Powers have lost their momentum. "
"Then, we only need to hand over the dictator to the Allied forces. As for Britain, the United States, the army and navy ... it doesn't matter! However, my personal suggestion is to make a gesture of goodwill to General Eisenhower."
Luke finished his long speech, and the members of Howling Commandos looked at each other and suddenly smiled.
Their hearts felt like a boulder had been lifted, and they all sighed with relief.
Despite the fact that the young commander, who had previously denigrated the Italian army as worthless, was able to break into enemy territory and capture the leader with a single team, sounded like a legendary story only written in a third-rate novel, and had no truth to it at all.
The Howling Commandos were willing to follow Luke. Not because of his charisma, but because they had no other choice.
Anyway, they were all pulled aboard. What else can they do if they didn't follow the Captain's orders?
However, seeing Luke's plan and his confidence, the Howling Commandos had no other ideas.
They felt they could trust this young Captain!
"Let's disperse. "
Feeling the change of atmosphere in the team, Luke smiled.
Perhaps it's not until this moment that he is truly recognized as the leader of this team.
