This long supply route, not to mention the problem that the road conditions are too bad for the trucks to travel at high speeds, the fuel money alone is an astronomical amount that they can't bear, and if it weren't for the support of several oil fields in the Boston Empire, I'm afraid they wouldn't be able to get enough fuel for transportation.

Faced with increasingly difficult supplies, the Entente offensive had come to a near standstill. Throughout the winter, on the battlefields of the Southern Subcontinent, except for the big battles that broke out in the air from time to time, the ground battlefields were very stable.

During the four months of winter, the northern units of the Chinese Army were constantly recuperating and replenishing their troops from the reserves. In the process of replenishment, Fang Xiaoyu began to gradually reequip the Wehrmacht, all the Wehrmacht were equipped with an armored regiment at the division level, equipped with the same Grizzly Bear 1 tank as the Guards, because the number of combat vehicles was called the Guards Armored Corps was less, so it was called the Light Armored Army, referred to as the Light Army.

In addition to the Wehrmacht, a new artillery began to equip the Guards artillery, which is the Type 07 vehicle-mounted rocket launcher with an eight-tube launcher, this kind of suppressive firepower was well received by the artillery as soon as it was equipped, its fire density, attack power are very popular with the military, because the guide rail of the rocket artillery produced by the Chinese consortium is very similar to the pipe organ, and it is jokingly called the 'Fang's pipe organ' by the officers and soldiers.

At the beginning of April 907, spring had come to the coldest northern land, the ice on the battlefield in the Far East began to melt, after the weather warmed up, the Chinese army stationed in the occupied area sent a large number of search teams to search for those Cossack soldiers who fled in winter, but the harsh winter in the north was not so easy to pass, the low temperature of minus forty or fifty degrees, the rout army lacked food, fuel and shelter, the result can be imagined.

Due to the bitter cold of winter, search teams often find not hordes of captives, but patches of corpses that have begun to decompose. For fear of causing a plague, the search team had to find a batch and burn a batch to try to disinfect it to avoid the spread of the virus. According to later statistics, in this decisive battle between China and Colombia, the Cossack Empire lost more than 3 million regular troops and reserves, but only no more than 30% died at the hands of the Chinese Imperial Army, except for 600,000 soldiers who were captured, most of the others were wiped out by the harsh natural environment.

The great power of nature helped the Chinese Empire, and after determining that there was no longer any formed resistance in the Far East, the task of defending it was entrusted to the subsequent reserve forces, and a large number of regular troops began to advance westward, preparing to enter the western continent through Katerinburg.

The Cossack army, which had been on the defensive all winter, became nervous again, because the Cossack army did not care about the life and death to attack the defense line outside Katerinburg, and the Chinese Empire finally drew 200,000 Japanese soldiers from the domestic Japanese army and captured laborers, so that they could block the first line of the Cossack attack.

Due to the failure of the attack on Katerinburg, and the arrival of follow-up troops of the Chinese army, the defense force of Katerinburg increased exponentially, and Alexander III gave up hope of rescuing Marshal Kolchak, and the troops turned to the defense on the spot to prevent the attack of the Chinese army, and the Chinese army had begun to mobilize materials and troops to Katerinburg at this time, preparing to attack again.

The situation of the war was developing in favor of the East Concord and the Central Powers, Fang Xiaoyu's mood finally relaxed, and at this time, Wu Qiong suddenly reported that the envoy of the Boston Empire, the assistant to the prime minister, Le Cheng, had arrived. Fang Xiaoyu was immediately overjoyed when he heard that Le Cheng was coming, but Le Cheng was now an undercover agent in the Boston Empire, and he couldn't reveal his identity, so he could only say lightly: "Since the Boston Empire has sent an envoy, let him come to the study to see me." ”

Under the guidance of the waiter, Le Cheng entered Fang Xiaoyu's study, Fang Xiaoyu deliberately said with a straight face: "Everyone stand down, you are not allowed to come in until I greet you." ”

All the guards and waiters retreated according to the words, and seeing that there were no outsiders, Fang Xiaoyu walked over with a smile, looked him up and down, and then Fang Xiaoyu hugged Le Cheng and said in a low voice: "Le Cheng, thank you for your hard work." ”

Le Cheng felt Fang Xiaoyu's brotherly enthusiasm, his heart was warm, and he hugged Fang Xiaoyu with his backhand and said with a smile: "If it weren't for the government sending me to negotiate this time, I really wouldn't have been able to come back." ”

Fang Xiaoyu pulled Le Cheng to the sofa and sat down and asked, "How is it in the Boston Empire?" Are you still used to life? ”

Le Cheng shrugged: "What do you say?" It's a very fulfilling and exciting life in the Boston Empire, but it's not a good feeling to sleep with one eye open every night, for fear that you will reveal your secrets by talking in your sleep. ”

Fang Xiaoyu said: "If you feel too tired, come back and help me, I am preparing to set up a military intelligence bureau to be responsible for military intelligence, and you will come back to the authorities." ”

Le Cheng shook his head: "I still like exciting life, if I sit in the office every day, drink tea and read documents, I will be old." ”

Fang Xiaoyu shook his head: "You always have this temperament, but it doesn't work if there is no one in charge of my intelligence bureau." ”

Le Cheng smiled: "I think Liu Yu is very suitable." ”

Fang Xiaoyu nodded: "Liu Yu is indeed a good person, and you brought it out single-handedly, let him be the deputy director, the position of the director must be reserved for you." ”

Le Cheng smiled: "Okay, when I'm tired, maybe I'll really come back." ”

Fang Xiaoyu patted Le Cheng's shoulder and said, "It's better for you to come back quickly, I'm very worried about you old brothers taking risks outside." Le Cheng nodded movingly, and from Fang Xiaoyu's words, he felt a strong brotherly feeling from the heart.

Le Cheng said: "I came to work this time because the Boston Empire wanted to join our side to participate in the war, and I came to communicate with the young master. ”

Fang Xiaoyu frowned and said, "The Boston Empire wants to join our side in the war?" It's impossible, they bought so many war bonds from the Entente and gave them so many loans, and once he joins our side, won't these be in vain? ”

Fang Xiaoyu raised his head and said, "Le Cheng, do you think they are sincere?" ”

Le Cheng said: "I compared it according to the information I have collected recently, and I found that the Boston royal family is probably frightened. ”

Fang Xiaoyu was surprised: "Oh? Scared, how could it be? ”

Le Cheng said with a smile: "This is thanks to Xiaohu, the naval battle of the air attack on Tunisia in the Southern Subcontinent, that battle made the Boston Empire know the importance of the air force, and the subsequent big air battle made the Boston people know the huge gap between the Entente and our Chinese Empire in terms of air force, so the Boston royal family who originally wanted to throw themselves into the Allied side to start a war against us was scared back." ”
