Chapter 650: Winter in the Northeast
Dagang in April is already warm weather, and the Northeast, but still in a cold wind, just ended March has a hint of warming, but because of a so-called unknown cold snap, the violent wind and snow once again swept the entire Northern China land, goose feather snow raging in the wind, although the northeast can be in the winter because of the wind and snow barrier, so that the demon can not act on a large scale and get a little respite, but at the same time, this bad weather, let leave the sturdy house. It is difficult for human beings to survive without heating and hot water, although people can survive the first two years by relying on the materials left behind in villages and towns, but without the emergence of the Northeast Army, even if the entire land of Northern China does not need to launch a general attack without demons, the displaced life will not survive for a few years in this weather.
In a county town in Pingyang City, the old houses have heating, water and water pipes, and the Northeast Army has long since restored the supply, even if the wind and snow outside can only see more than ten meters clearly, they can still feel the warmth of the house.
The newly built houses are all in place, and even the kind of buildings that look like various courtyards have special heating boilers.
The fragile human body relies on this natural wisdom to fight against God.
Now that it has entered April, the various units have entered the predetermined position of the spring campaign, but even so, the entire Pingyang army is wedged like a wedge around Pingyang.
In fact, in this winter, especially after three or four million people went to the Korean Peninsula, many people persuaded Li Yang to move the capital to Seoul and force away the northeast that was destined to be a quagmire, especially Pingyang, which is almost close to the devil under the rule of the Northeast Army, but Li Yang did not waver in the slightest.
Because even if all are evacuated, in order to better command the battlefield, the General Staff will not move half a step, and the forward with Pingyang as the center is where he Li Yang is.
And more importantly, where he is, where can he redeem huàn bracelets, only in Pingyang, in the middle of this quagmire, can he do the most timely supply of materials everywhere.
The demon relies on a huge population base, and simple logistics supply, and the most important thing for human negotiation is logistics supply, as long as the replenishment is timely, the combat power of the Northeast Army can always play at the peak level.
But even if Pingyang is not defended, there are large armies stationed, there are still a large number of guard towers and rangers patrolling, even if this is already an inch of difficult weather, it is still so, Pingyang is too important, not the slightest slack, these are the troops sharpened in the last days, and after the Northeast Army training, no matter how bad the environment, the soldiers will not relax, peacetime soldiers, simply can not do this.
A team of cavalry braved the wind and snow to rush back to the watchtower and looked up at the number on the watchtower, the cavalry headed by him still shook his head helplessly, and the people in the watchtower rushed out and helped these soldiers who had been frozen stiff to dismount, and the horses pulled closer to the stables next to them to warm themselves and feed them, and these cavalrymen were holding and carrying, making their stiff bodies soft.
The nine cavalrymen trembled into the guard tower, the warm coal stove, hot wine and hot water were all greeting, which was also staggering there, and it took more than ten minutes to breathe a sigh of relief.
"The eighth watchtower, damn it, Lao Tzu is still lost, he said that he should go to the fifth watchtower, he said that he should go to the fifth watchtower," the cavalrymen who were wrapped like brown bears finally began to pick up their clothes, and now in the northeast, the supplies of the soldiers are top-notch, especially these patrols, as long as they patrol, the sheepskin wool coat, hat, gloves, boots, and thick sheepskin blanket or something are all a set of hands, when on duty, only a pair of tricks is enough.
Otherwise, this wind and snow weather of minus 30 degrees will be two or three days away from the mission, and the skin and flesh that are not frozen will die one by one?
As long as the package is tight, no matter how cold it is, it can be relieved.
The soldiers in the sentry tower waited for one by two, three, and the platoon commander said with a smile: "Where do you go to Mao, in short, I came back, and when did my brother go out?" ”
"The twenty-sixth scattered from the No. 8 tower, we ran to the foot of Pingzhou City before turning back, if it weren't for this heavy snowstorm, we would have come back last morning, damn the weather, I froze to death." The squad leader was also rude at this time, regardless of the superiority and inferiority, although he was a non-commissioned officer, he had no scruples with this platoon commander, took a hot broth, and drank two sips, and the whole person felt that he was recovering quickly.
"The spies of the rangers are scattered every two days, and you guys are really hard, they all say that the soldiers are well treated and have a high status, and they don't look at what kind of bird life our brothers live!"
The cavalry squad leader nodded thoughtfully, in order to ensure the safety of Pingyang, the cavalry scattered once every two days, exploring two hundred miles, especially in the direction of Pingzhou, they were even more cautious, they not only had to go out on a mission in the ice and snow, but also risked being surrounded and annihilated at any time, under Pingzhou City, as long as the demon intended to attack, more than a dozen cavalry, it was really useless.
The griffin is even more wasteful, whether it is long-distance endurance, or weight-bearing, or cold-tolerant Cheng dù, according to the Northeast military system of Mongolian war horses are very different, not to mention this big ice and snow day, even in normal times, a little wind, they can't fly.
His grandmother's, in the winter of the Northeast, there are days when there is no wind in the sky?
I can't count on it.
"The demon hasn't moved?" After the platoon commander arranged the accommodation of this cavalry squad, he chatted and asked during the meal, they usually eat steamed bread broth, but as long as the cavalry came back from patrolling, especially in this kind of ice and snow, it was all good wine and good meat hospitality, although half a sheep was not much, but it was enough for them to eat a full meal with steamed buns.
"What can happen? In this damn weather, we live on the coal in the warm house, although they have rough skin and thick meat, but they are also afraid of the cold, and they don't produce much coal, and the coal and firewood that can be obtained are heard to be weapons, look at it, the more people, the more people die, this winter, the devil naturally reduces people must be very obvious, thinking that if you solve the problem of eating, you can live on the earth? Dream on. ”
The platoon commander nodded, this is a well-known thing, the newly released "Survival of the Demon Race" in the academy is a book about the living habits of demons, and there is a detailed introduction in it, listening to the meaning of the cavalry squad leader, these demons are all shrinking in the city and have no intention of appearing at all.
