Chapter 164: Ice and Snow Warriors
The Russians are well acquainted with their winters, and since the establishment of Kievan Rus' in the ninth century, the Slavs have faced the vast snowfields of Eastern Europe every winter. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoEvery year, the steppes of Ukraine and the vast forests of Belarus are covered with snow. It was in such an environment that the Slavs completely survived, so much so that both men and women were very strong, because only in this way could they cope with the harsh environment.
At first, Yang Mingzhi felt that his wife star fruit, she was just a little girl, in the future era, she would not be an adult at all, and she could cope well with such a difficult environment?
The reality is quite funny, although the star fruit is small, she is also a child who grew up in the white mountains and black waters, and she is used to being so cold.
"You don't have to worry about me at all, it's not as cold here as it is back home? Don't you know? Her rhetorical question made Yang Mingzhi suddenly realize, yes, the three eastern provinces are colder than Moscow, after all, the vast Eastern Europe here is relatively close to the ocean and there are no huge mountain ranges.
In this operation, all the warriors' bags were thicker. These are not weapons and ammunition, but cotton clothes and blankets, as well as tools for setting up tents. Everyone planned to dig up snow with sappers at night and build some snow houses as temporary shacks, as their fellow Nenets did.
Spending the night in the snow, Yang Mingzhi was a little eager to try. The Nenets were the ancient Ding Ling people, who were violently beaten by the Han and Rouran people, and they ran to the mouth of the Lena River to live in the Arctic Circle. Their means of wintering are nothing more than extreme maintenance of warmth.
More than 1,000 good men formed four columns to open out, two infantry battalions were the main combat strength, the reconnaissance company was incorporated into the unit to be responsible for opening the road, and the guard company was responsible for defending Yang Mingzhi, which was also used as a tactical reserve. And the artillery company, they are also in charge of twenty military horses. Large quantities of ammunition and some weapons, as well as their mortars and shells, were carried by horses.
Because it was a cold day march, the calories burned by each person were huge. At this point, Yang Mingzhi is not worried about the physical strength of the fighters.
The troops should be dispersed to carry out firewood tactics and sparrow tactics, which require a strong degree of organization, and the Soviet army has a good sense of consciousness among the soldiers, as well as the hard command of the company-level political commissars. If the battle unfolds, the troops are scattered, and they have to make roundabouts. If the enemy escapes, he will have to run faster than the enemy, blocking their way and giving them a kick. And this, the physical fitness of the soldier is required.
At the resting place, the radioman immediately contacted the barracks of Catfish Village, and also began to communicate with the sentinels who were walking in the vast area.
Soviet sentries spotted the enemy early, and the sentries were in groups of several people, some equipped with radios. Now they have informed the troops who have set off with the latest information.
The sentinels, the attacking troops, and the base camp, maintained the usual radio and communicated with each other by radio.
With a rare rest, the fighters immediately stopped to replenish their strength.
"You have to eat more, you're lean, and only fat and meat can keep you strong." Yang Mingzhi ordered his wife to finish eating the canned beef, refused her kindness to eat it together, and took out his own canned food. "My physique is better, eat less. You have to eat more, this can, you and Natasha divide it together. ”
"And what about you, sir?" Natasha asked worriedly.
"Me? You don't have to worry. ”
Yang Mingzhi smiled and began to nibble on the bread that was already cold. He had to wait for a while, as the warriors searched for branches, and when enough firewood was collected, the entire camp could be lit with bonfires. Grab a handful of snow and put it in a lunch box and bake it, and the fighters will be able to drink hot water.
There is no bad smog in this era, and you can still see the stars on a clear night. It was still a peaceful day, and a peaceful life was still being lived in the Far East. Yang Mingzhi and Carambola got together to chat, talked about the Anti-Japanese Federation, recalled some people, scolded the devils, and then lay on the grass and looked at the sky.
It was a romantic moment, and the relationship between husband and wife gradually cultivated into family affection. Yang Mingzhi watched his wife eat canned meat, and it didn't matter if he looked at the bread himself. What's more, he and many fighters also have an artifact to replenish physical strength - milk powder.
The milk powder made in Heitu Village is easy to regenerate into milk here, so instead of hot water, everyone drinks hot milk.
The noon break ended quickly, and the afternoon continued on the road, with the troops getting closer and closer to the target.
The troops and the sentries communicated with each other, and at three o'clock in the afternoon, the sentries came with the news. "The enemy has stalled in the area of Д022."
For the sake of coordination, the map of this area is drawn with latitude and longitude lines, Д022 area, which means that it is 22 km from the village of Catfish. It was already a very close distance, and it was three o'clock, and they stopped to set up camp, and that was to spend the night tonight.
The news came very suddenly, and he ordered the troops to stop immediately and urgently ordered all the company commanders to open fire.
There seemed to be a smell of gunpowder smoke in the air, and the officers trotted all the way to Yang Mingzhi, and they guessed that the military operation would start immediately, and soon there would be a real battle.
So everyone's expressions were a little solemn, and Yang Mingzhi patted his gloved hands. "Comrades, your faces are tight! There is no need to doubt it, the enemy is six kilometers ahead of us, in the D022 area. ”
The officers squatted down one after another, and Yang Mingzhi unfolded the folded map and said: "Judging from the intelligence, the enemy has set up camp in this area, the sun will set in more than an hour, and the last afterglow will last until five o'clock in the afternoon." On the premise that the enemy does not know about us, we must take countermeasures. A battalion commander! ”
“Дa!”
"Ravlendi, give your battalion a mission. Now your men are on a hasty move, and at three o'clock in the morning they are most asleep to carry out a surprise attack. However, guns are only allowed to be placed at a distance. ”
"Yes!"
"Then the artillery battery!"
“Дa!” Company Commander Doronin said.
"Okay Doronin, you team up with a battalion and bomb them with mortars from a distance. The enemy is encamped near a grove, and you will enter into the woods, and you will open fire in the wilderness. Ten mortars fired ten rounds and retreated, you retreated to the area of Д023 and laid an ambush. ”
"Yes!"
Doronin and Ravlendi, as the vanguard, what they do is to make a surprise attack and give the enemy a dismount, it is better to mess them up. In the darkness of the night, there was a sudden burst of artillery fire and machine-gun fire, and then suddenly disappeared. Such a terror is inflicted on ordinary soldiers, and the morale of this group of enemies must have plummeted.
When they were exhausted, the large army, which had already recuperated, immediately attacked.
Night raids are the strength of the troops, and everyone has long been accustomed to launching surprise attacks at night.
"I led the second battalion, as well as the guard company reconnaissance company, and waited for your artillery fire, after which we began to advance. When we arrived, the enemy must be rescuing their wounded soldiers, and if we cooperate well, our troops will not suffer casualties. ”
Everyone looked at Yang Mingzhi and smiled confidently one by one.
"It's good that you have so much faith, but we must not underestimate it. The enemy could flee, and when the battle was like this, a battalion immediately left from the area of Д023, having to run faster than the enemy, interspersed in front of them. In this battle, not a single enemy can run. Okay, now let's start on the table! (To be continued.) )
