The wild northwest wind seemed to be carrying countless innocent souls, and the world was instantly chilled, and all living things shivered.
When the violence finally passed and people walked out, they suddenly discovered that the earth had changed color.
People who see this scene for the first time just feel it is very beautiful, and can burst out countless magnificent poems.
People living in this land can only feel sadness.
Because they need to survive for six months in this environment where the sky is blue and the ground is white.
Can you survive...
God knows!
So people who can't stand it will go south desperately.
It doesn’t matter whether the people in the south welcome them or not, and it doesn’t matter whether the people in the south are great or not.
It is better to die by the knife in the south than to be swallowed up by this terrifying world.
So the local indigenous people would always laugh at the Han people who came all the way here in their chats.
If you don't hold on to the best land in the world, you will go to this hell to suffer.
How could there be such stupid people?
Wang Erzhu didn't know the ridicule of the local natives, so he lived his life with peace of mind.
Life in the military is so routine that no matter what you do, it becomes unconscious.
At seven o'clock in the morning, he had already finished breakfast.
The spicy soup with four spoonfuls of chili peppers, paired with two flatbreads stuffed with mutton, can ward off the cold for a long time.
For a Henanese, this is the most noble enjoyment.
He can actually eat it even in the far north.
There is no way, the empire behind it is almost pampering and protecting the soldiers.
Any good things will be piled on them.
Be proud to be a soldier of this country!
Even if he died in battle, he would always have a smile on his face.
After breakfast, he returned to his dormitory, joked with his comrades, and Wang Erzhu began to put on his equipment.
He will stand guard for the next two hours.
If you stay outdoors in a place like this for two hours, you must take strict protection. Otherwise, it is impossible to survive.
He put on his cotton trousers.
The cotton pants issued are not thick.
If it is thicker, it will be inflexible in combat.
But if it is not thick, people will freeze to death.
So the geniuses from the logistics department carefully sewed a layer of furry animal skin on the inside of the cotton pants.
Not only that, the outer lining of the military trousers also has a layer of fluff, which cannot be blown through by no matter how strong the cold wind is.
On his feet were leather boots that were thicker than bricks.
We definitely don’t dare to save materials for this, we must use the best leather and the best fur.
Wear it on your feet, you can tuck your trousers into the high boot uppers, and then tie the shoelaces tightly to ensure that your feet can feel even if you spend a day in the wild.
A thick military coat is worn outside, and a tactical vest is also added.
Basically, once you put these two pieces on, you won't be afraid of any severe cold.
Helmets are standard equipment, but soldiers do not wear them when they are usually on guard duty.
Even if there is a fleece hood inside the helmet, it is not wise to come into contact with iron objects in such weather.
Wang Erzhu is wearing a dog-skin hat.
But in fact, this kind of hat has nothing to do with dog skin. Made of pure cotton, it is lightweight, warm and all-round.
Not only that, you also need to put on the hood before putting on the hat.
Under the hood, only a pair of eyes are exposed. The nose, mouth, and ears are all wrapped tightly to ensure that they will not freeze off.
Do you think your eyes will be exposed?
Wang Erzhu took out another pair of glasses. The brown lenses indicated that the glasses had no prescription.
The only function is to prevent excessively bright white snow from hurting the eyes.
For all soldiers in Liaodong, sunglasses are standard equipment.
Ordinary soldiers wear ordinary items from the equipment department. Those with money and high status will buy high-end items by themselves.
Wehrmacht soldiers like to modify their equipment to make it most comfortable to use.
As long as those who don't reform are misunderstood by their comrades as enemies, the higher-ups don't care at all.
Who says all soldiers are rich?
Isn’t transformation for the sake of one’s own comfort and life a reasonable request?
Wang Erzhu went outdoors, walked to the highest point, and replaced his comrade who was almost unable to bear it.
As far as the eye could see, he was the only living creature in the entire world.
At the same time, because the colors between heaven and earth are too monotonous, the next two hours will be very boring.
He couldn't move, he wasn't even allowed to wander.
This requires great perseverance to persevere.
But it seems that today's guard duty will not be boring.
In the far west, on the white ocean-like land, countless black spots are stumbling towards us.
Wang Erzhu was a little surprised, but not nervous.
After coming back to his senses, he grabbed the small hammer next to him and hit it on the iron piece.
Dang-dang-dang, Dang-dang-dang, Dang-dang-dang...
The rhythmic knocking sound was quickly transmitted to all parts of the castle through carefully arranged pipelines.
No heavy hammer is needed to sound the drum, and the same applies to warning.
In a place like this, no matter what you do, saving energy must be considered.
Only by saving energy in other places can you kill enemies better.
The castle quickly became noisy, and within a short time, various posts were filled with people.
Wei Yuanfeng climbed to the highest point of the castle, held up his telescope and looked at the trekking Khalkha Mongols with a smile on his face.
The new commander of the Second Front of the Northern Strategic Group has not yet taken up his post.
He needs to repel the Khalkha Mongolian attack and defend Longyuan City this winter.
Is it difficult?
Wei Yuanfeng felt that with the fortress and fifteen thousand soldiers at his feet, there was no difficulty at all.
Although nearly 50,000 troops came from Khalkha Mongolia.
When Longyuan City was being built, a large number of construction experts were sent from China.
They strongly rejected the traditional method of building a city and instead built this kind of bastion that many people considered novel.
However, after using it for a period of time, everyone fell in love with the bastion.
The empire was a strong ally with Portugal and the Netherlands, and with the capture of Taiwan and Luzon, it was natural to master the construction technology of the bastion.
Especially in Longyuan City, cement and steel bars were added.
The Mongols want to conquer this place...
"The battle is left to you."
The main combat forces in Longyuan City are the 43rd Regiment of the 11th Division and the 54th Public Security Division.
Ding Xiangguang, the leader of the 43rd Regiment, looked at the embarrassed Mongols outside the city and immediately lost interest and pushed the battle to the 54th Public Security Division.
Xue Mancang, commander of the 54th Division, was so happy that he only said one sentence.
"Help your artillerymen."
Ding Xiangguang nodded and turned to do other things.
Although Ding Xiangguang was only a colonel and Xue Mancang was a major general, no one was dissatisfied with this scene.
Just because colonel Ding Xiangguang's epaulettes have rice ears, while Xue Mancang's epaulettes have gardenias.
This is the difference between a field force officer and a security force officer.
Almost all security force officers dream of replacing their epaulettes with rice ears.
The legends of Gu Zhiqi, Cui Xiaoyi, Che Liliang, Qu Ercheng and others have been widely praised throughout the army.
