Chapter 309 Who Said That The South Will Not Freeze To Death
"If the Banshees were my servants who secretly controlled the human country, what should I be called?"
"The black hand who controls the world behind the scenes? The big devil who is destined to be discovered by the brave and then overturned by the car?"
With a self-deprecating smile, Alvin casually packed the thick secret documents and then slowly walked to the huge sand table in the office.
The matter of the Sinos Federal Republic obviously needs to ferment for a while, and there is nothing related to his interests at the moment, so Alvin is still more concerned about the development of the situation in Nandele.
The anticipated counterattack from the National Salvation Army has now achieved preliminary results.
According to information, although the losses were heavy, the senior leaders of the National Salvation Army did not want to give up the strategically important portal of Giant Bone City, as the skeleton mages speculated.
This is actually inevitable.
Because once the hope of opening up the Giant Bone City is completely gone, the National Salvation Army will be able to be content with the surrounding areas of the two provinces from now on, and there is no possibility of taking off.
Whether it is a loss in the political sense or a practical impact, this is absolutely unacceptable to the top leaders of the National Salvation Army.
but…
Considering the losses and gaps in combat effectiveness, the National Salvation Army has not been reckless until now, and has fought against the Twilight Army again.
In addition to reorganizing the armaments and drawing the Second and Third Legions scattered in several occupied areas, the National Salvation Army is also trying to win over two other rebels, intending to bring allies to fight against the Twilight Army.
Obviously, the other two rebels were also very alert to the sudden rise of the Twilight Army and close to the king. They were extremely likely to agree in the end when they were cold with their lips and teeth.
In other words, the next time the Twilight Army will fight against will be the rebel coalition forces of the South German kingdoms!
"If the three companies really join forces, they will probably be able to pull out more than 100,000 troops in one go. This has not yet been repaired. The pressure on the front line will be too great."
"It seems that we still have to find a way to pull the government troops into the water."
Staring at the area controlled by the blue-brown rebels, Alvin's eyes finally fell on a huge orange plain.
This is the Gulanti Plain.
The most famous granary and industrial area of the Kingdom of South Germany is also the most important core territory of the Government of the Kingdom of South Germany.
More than half of the elite troops in the old king's hands are stationed in this area all year round, including the Air Force that he helped before, and a mixed heavy-armed legion with more than 150 tanks.
If we can borrow the power of these troops, even if we only make some noise to deter them, then the National Self-Defense Force, which is closest to this area among the three major rebels, will never dare to act rashly.
As for the remaining Burr nobles' union...
"Then let them witness a gift from the world of Azeroth, called magic!"
Looking at a fortress full of flags representing troops, the coldness in Alvin's eyes flashed...
—————
"Ah Yeh!"
"Damn it, it was fine yesterday, why did it suddenly snow so heavily?"
Standing in the tower where the cold wind whistled, Lu Wen shook the snowflakes that had come into the window on his body, and complained while trembling.
He shook very rhythmically, but unfortunately, shaking the thing about heating is just a joke and a futile struggle after all.
In the face of the sudden snow and snow, even the worn military uniform was as thin as a layer of paper, which could not stop the biting chill.
The latitude of the Kingdom of South Germany is generally relatively low, especially in the southern regions, where it rarely snows even in winter, and more rainy.
As for the temperature, affected by the nearest ocean current, the average temperature here in winter can even reach about ten degrees, and occasionally it can encounter seventeen or eighteen degrees.
If you get used to this more subtropical natural environment, local residents will naturally not prepare any heavy cold-proof clothes.
Especially for the fortress Lu Wen is now in.
Because it is the Burr Noble Union Alliance, it can also be called the most important garrison place of the old tribes and noble Union Alliance in the South. The entire fortress is completely under military control, so it is impossible to even find a store to buy a few more clothes to wear.
arrive.
"Damn it, it's better to expect the great masters of the logistics to show their winter clothes to me such as big-headed soldiers!"
"When I broke through that town before, I should have brought some more clothes to bring back, but who would have thought that it would snow so heavily?"
"It seems that I have to find a way to wear more later, or stuff some warmth into my clothes. Even if I get some paper, it will be better than now!"
Lu Wen, who shivered and felt that he was almost frozen, relied entirely on his fear of the fierce military police to hide in the tower until he had to hold on until the shift of duty.
When the next unlucky guy who was in the substitute was reluctant to appear in sight, he turned his head and shot without saying a word, and rushed back to the barracks against the growing snowflakes.
Then, he almost cried again by the cold...
As a military organization formed by the local old tribe noble lords and pieced together, the simple soldier barracks of the Allied Army naturally could not have luxurious accessories such as heating or air conditioning.
If the environment was not allowed to be, and in order to save money, the old men who still had a strong idea of slavery might have thought of making soldiers look like the sky as their quilts and the ground as their beds.
But now, it seems that it is not much different if it is open or not.
Built with rough cement and then simply painted a layer of white paint, the barracks were cold among the flying snowflakes, just like an ice cellar.
Although there is no wind, there is a strange feeling of coldness than outside.
"Yes, yes, I can't stand it anymore!"
Lu Wen, whose face had begun to turn blue, had no choice but to ignore anything else. He threw away the gun that seemed to be a little stuck to his hand, and then he almost returned to his bed with a half-crawling attitude.
During this process, several poor big-headed soldiers who were as young as Lu Wen and had a good face were also curled up on their beds with an ugly face, and they had no intention of helping Lu Wen.
Because...they are almost frozen and solid!
Even if the group of people who are used to the warm climate are covered with everything they can find, they still cannot bear the sudden cooling that has obviously reached below zero.
If it weren't for the sudden appearance of those military police officers who really could kill people, several soldiers who were originally gangsters would want to tear off the only wooden cabinets and burn the fire in the house to keep warm!
But if we continue to develop according to this situation, the Fire God Horse should be not far away...
"I guess the entire fortress, only those noble officers and men, can avoid being frozen..."
Lu Wen, who had gradually lost consciousness, couldn't help but think of this.
However, he obviously overestimated the current situation of the noble officers.
Although most of the independent rooms that these "naturally superiors" have are equipped with air conditioners, the severe power loss quickly caused the logistics officer to pull the switch while jumping.
"Quickly issue a notice and let all military controls below the battalion commander turn off the air conditioner and electric heating!"
"I really can't stand it, so I'll find a way to get some thick clothes or burn it yourself!"
There is no way. After all, for the poor and backward old tribal areas in the southern region, power plants are really pitifully few, which leads to electricity always being a scarce and in short supply.
Although in order to maintain some necessary military equipment, a small thermal power station was specially built near the fortress and even a lot of high-power diesel generators were stockpiled, the final power output was really not large.
Those officers were rushing to use electricity so much that they couldn't squeeze out even a drop of the overwhelmed transformer...
However, no matter how the Allies responded to this sudden blizzard in panic, the temperature became more and more terrifying with the arrival of night.
Even... fatal!
“So cold, so cold…”
Looking at the dim flames in the iron washbasin and Lu Wen, who had thrown most of the burnt things into it, curled up his body under his clothes and bedding.
If the beds were not all double-layer single iron beds, he would even have the urge to hug other roommates.
There is no way, it’s cold but cold now!
Looking at the white mist in his breath, Lu Wen's brain was almost blank, and his exposed face was completely lost after the initial swelling.
"Why? Why does such extreme cold suddenly appear? Is this a punishment from the gods?!"
In despair, as a veteran who had participated in many looting and massacre operations, Lu Wen gradually began to show his former atrocities and sins in his dim vision.
Under the gun, were the hatred, numb, crying, and screaming faces also in the same despair as he was at this moment?
"God, please forgive me..."
In a trance, he seemed to be no longer cold and even felt unprecedented heat.
"It's so hot... no, am I going to die? But... it's so warm..."
His trembling body couldn't help but gradually soothe, as if he had returned to his mother's arms.
With his lips curled up, Lu Wen seemed to have returned to his once happy childhood.
There is no war, no fighting, family, partners, excited laughter, and...
Dong...
With a light sound, a hand, silently slid down from its naked body in some way, and a dead silence reflected in the dark red firelight...
