28. Land and Blood (V)

Guerrilla Squad is Guerrilla Squad, engaging in direct firefight with the regular forces is simply a suicide mission, a truth that will remain unchanged even a hundred years from now. Even with the advantage of terrain, to make a group of armed civilians, who have just learned how to shoot, confront well-trained killing machines, the result could only be a lopsided massacre.

Moreover, the "Prince Eugen" Regiment was not just an ordinary Wehrmacht field unit; they were equally adept at mountain warfare. Well-trained, well-equipped, and always capable of calling for fire support. If the Guerrilla Squad wished to fight them head-on, the officers and soldiers of the "Prince Eugen" Regiment would take great pleasure in burying the Guerrilla Squad in the mountains, in an ordeal that would be long and painful, regrettable enough to make the guerrillas rue their existence.
