The heavy snow has been falling intermittently, and the entire Ordos steppe has become an endless white sea, and the soldiers shoveled out the snow in the trench with a shovel and piled it directly on the bunker of the trench, and soon the snow formed a thick layer of snow and ice, which greatly strengthened the defense of the trench bunker. Several fighters shelled twice with grenadiers and found that the grenadiers were unable to destroy the bunkers made of snow.

The military headquarters of the Ordos Reading Army.

Zhang Mingyu was wearing a woolen coat, he stood in front of the big map, looked at the map quietly, and then asked, "Liqun, is there any movement from the devil?" ”

Ma Liqun stood up and replied: "No, since the heavy snowfall, the devils in the direction of Xinzhou have not moved, and the devils in the direction of Suiyuan have not moved, I think the devils will not attack for the time being!" ”

"That's what I said, but I'm not afraid of 10,000 if I'm not afraid of anything!" Zhang Mingyu said: "Order all units to patrol strictly, we must not slacken, and the whole army will be ready for battle at any time!" ”

"Yes!" Ma Liqun stands on the right path.

The snow gradually stopped, but it was still very cold. In the headquarters of the Datong Army stationed in Mongolia, Banheng Seishiro was wrapped in a military coat, rubbing his hands around the stove and scolding: "Baga! It's really cold in China, it's colder than our Hokkaido! ”

Ishihara Wan'er next to him was also around the stove, and his hands kept stretching out beside the stove, as if his hands were close to the stove to warm up, and he also said, "Yes! Inner Mongolia is as cold as the Northeast, and sometimes it is colder than the Northeast. ”

Itasun Seishiro said with a smile on his face: "I remember that the two of us went to Hokkaido to soak in the hot springs together, where the girl is really first-class, and it is really cool to do that thing in the hot spring!" ”

Ishihara also said with emotion: "Yes! I think how wonderful it was back then, but now that the Empire has launched a holy war, as emperors, our duty is to fulfill the task assigned to us by His Majesty the Emperor and contribute our strength to the establishment of greater East Asia co-prosperity! ”

"Ishihara-kun, what you said is very right, for the common prosperity of Greater East Asia, for the holy war of the empire, we should not be afraid of cold, not afraid of life and death, to complete the mission entrusted to us by His Majesty the Emperor!" After saying that, he took off the military coat he was wearing, stood up and said, "We should send a telegram to the sixth, ninth, and thirteenth divisions and order them to go north immediately!" ”

"Hmmm! Although the winter offensive will bring some trouble to our logistics, the heavy snow can also confuse the Chinese people, and they will definitely relax somewhat! Ban Hengjun, just do as you say! Order the 6th, 9th, and 13th Divisions to immediately go north and cross the Yellow River to attack Ordos! Ishihara said gloomily.

"I want the West!" Ban Hengzheng nodded and said, "I'll immediately ask the communication soldiers to send them electricity!" ”

"By the way, Ishihara-kun, why haven't you seen Miss Yoshiko Kawashima and Miss Yunko Takeuchi during this time? What are they busy with, are they going to assassinate the leader of China, Chiang? Ban Hengzheng asked.

Ishihara Wan'er sighed and said: "Ban Hengjun, don't you know, half a year ago, in the Battle of Xuzhou, Tegaoke sent them to infiltrate the Reading Force Regiment of China, which is now the Reading Power Army, and prepared to assassinate Zhang Mingyu, the head of the Reading Force, but according to Tegaoke, they said that as early as the end of the Battle of Xuzhou a few months ago, they lost contact with Yoshiko Kawashima and Yunko Takeuchi, and it is estimated that they have encountered an accident!" ”

Hearing Ishihara Wan'er say that Yunko Takeuchi and Yoshiko Kawashima may have met with an accident, Ban Hengzheng said with regret: "Hey! It's just a pity that our empire has lost two more excellent spy flowers. At the same time, it is also a pity for Miss Takeuchi and Miss Yoshiko, their plump snow-white bodies. (Because of her beauty, Takeuchi and her two are often forced to sleep with the top officials of the army, and Kawashima Yoshiko is because of this fear and boredom with men.) Including Ishihara Wanji and Itatsune Seisishiro. ）

Ishihara also nodded with deep sympathy: "Yes! To this day, I still have a lot of memories of that night with Miss Yoshiko. Speaking of this, Ishihara was stunned: "However, Ban Hengjun, there are a few famous names of my empire here, and they are also quite good, you can try it tonight!" ”

"To the West! Ishihara-kun, did you bring these people from China? Ban Hengzheng asked curiously.

"Of course not, these are left by the former commander in Mongolia, Lian Shaofanjun!" Ishihara replied.

"Yaga! That fake aristocrat, why does he have such good enjoyment, he only knows that he is greedy for pleasure! The scum of the empire! Ban Hengzheng said angrily.

"Ban Hengjun doesn't need to be angry, now that he has been relieved of all his duties by His Majesty the Emperor, he will be his royal family in Tokyo!" Ishihara said with a smile.

In Xinzhou City, in a wing room in the backyard of an inn.

Li Gang and another special combat team member were resting, when suddenly there was a few knocks on the door, Li Gang and the soldier immediately jumped up with agility, and then stood on both sides of the door on one side, and slowly pulled out the face cleansing box from their waists.

Li Gang asked, "Who?" ”

"Guest officer, I'm the shopkeeper, I'm bringing you boiling water!" The voice of the shopkeeper sounded outside the door.

The two of them inserted the gun into their waists, and then the soldier opened the door, and as soon as the door opened, he saw the shopkeeper walking in with a boiling kettle with a smile on his face, and as he came in, a cool breeze also took the opportunity to float in. The shopkeeper put down the boiling water, and then said with a smile: "Two guest officers, you can use these boiling water to wash your face and soak your feet, it's a cold day." ”

"Hmm!" Li Gang took out two pieces of ocean from his pocket and stuffed them into the shopkeeper, and then asked, "Brother, have a large number of little devils in this city been transferred?" ”

"What are you asking about this? Could it be that you are this..." Xiao Er stretched out his hand and made a figure-eight shape and asked.

"Huh! The little brother smiled, how could we be eight-way, we were just a little curious. Li Gang said with a smile.

"Oh! But I'm really right for you, early this morning, the little devils began to go out of the city in large numbers, so there must be hundreds of trucks! The shopkeeper said.

"Oh!" Li Gang replied, he didn't want to ask the shopkeeper, it wasn't that he was worried that the shopkeeper would be Han Jian, but the more he knew, the more dangerous it would be for him. After sending off the shopkeeper, Li Gang said to the soldier: "Let's go to the city to investigate and see where the little devil goes!" ”

The two of them quietly walked out of the inn and walked out of the city. At this time, the entire Xinzhou City has become a white expanse, except for a few porters on the street shouting and selling some small things, there are only teams of puppet soldiers patrolling back and forth, but the strange thing is that Li Gang and they did not see a little devil along the way, you must know that most of the devils of the Fifth Division are stationed in Xinzhou City, and there are usually devils everywhere, today is very strange, it seems that what Xiao Er said is true, and all the little devils are out of the city.
