Rebirth of the Republic of China: The Rise of China

In the harsh environment of more than ten degrees below zero, the immigrants have enough food for their own consumption.However, some immigrants with poor physical fitness still suffer from illness.

Wang Youtian's mother, because of her age in her 60s and years of malnutrition, has been ill since she entered the Far East.It was fine a while ago, I could drink a bowl of broth every day, and with the support of sufficient nutrition and corresponding medicines, I could persist.However, as the limited frozen meat in Wang Youtian's hands was exhausted, the mother's body became weaker. Even with the support of medicine, it was difficult to persist for too long.

As the head of the family, Wang Youtian watched his mother's life approaching the end day by day. The face that was full of hope a few days ago was shrouded in despair again.Because, after his brother died in battle and his wife jumped into a well in front of him, this simple and honest middle-aged man could no longer withstand too many blows.

Looking at the snow-capped land outside the tent, he couldn't help but sighed bitterly: "We've been walking for more than half a month. This is a world of ice and snow. When will we be big... If we can't make it to our destination, I will Mother is going to die on the road..."

Another middle-aged man who was assigned to Wang Youtian's group comforted Wang Youtian in front of him: "Brother Arita, auspicious people have their own appearance. I believe that aunt will be able to persevere. Judging from the current situation, aunt is Due to malnutrition, as long as we have meat, we can supplement some nutrition for aunt, and aunt's body will get better..."[

The desperate expression on Wang Youtian's face did not change at all, and he continued with a look of remorse: "I also know that my mother lacks nutrition, but this is a world of ice and snow, where can I find meat..."

"You can go to the chief of the national defense force...the chief of the national defense force said before departure. During the whole migration, if you encounter any difficulties, you can go to the chief, and the chief will help us..." the middle-aged man comforted us.In fact, after he finished speaking.I regret it.Because, in his impression, no matter how good the army is, it would be thankful not to steal things from him, let alone let the army give him things.

Compared with the middle-aged man who suddenly calmed down, his wife was much more optimistic.because.Everything my family of four owns now is given by the National Defense Forces. Without the National Defense Forces, my family of four might have starved to death in Sichuan.

Seeing the silent husband, the wife followed suit and said in support: "Brother Arita, I think the head of my family is right. We can find the chief of the National Defense Forces. We also saw it along the way. The National Defense Forces are indeed different from other armies."

As soon as his words fell, a voice suddenly passed through the thick curtain of the tent and reached everyone's ears: "Is there anyone? Is there anyone in the tent? I'm an officer of the National Defense Forces. Can I come in?"

Wang Youtian quickly stood up and opened the curtain, and said respectfully to the officers and soldiers of the National Defense Forces standing at the door of the tent whose cheeks were flushed from the cold, "Hi, sir. I don't know why you are here..."

Seeing the defensive look on the other party's face, the National Defense Army soldier smiled awkwardly, and comforted him: "Don't worry, my fellow, I am also from Sichuan, and I am here to deliver meat to you... The officer said, because Marching continuously, the frozen meat in the hands of the villagers has been eaten up. If there is no meat, many people will not be able to survive Lake Baikal. No. The officer ordered us to hunt for you, and then give you the prey we caught..."

After finishing speaking, together with a soldier behind him, he carried a large box containing frozen fish and meat to everyone.

Seeing the fat river fish in the basket, Wang Youtian's first feeling was: his mother is saved.then.Kneeling subconsciously in front of the young soldier with a pair of legs, he said with a moved face: "Sir, you are really a living Bodhisattva. Without these frozen meats, my mother might not be able to persist in Lake Baikal... Son, come here, let's go together!" Kowtow to the officer, thank the officer, thank the National Defense Forces..."

After all the members of the family knelt in front of the young soldier, they blushed directly.Seeing that the other party was about to kowtow, the blushing soldier hurried over and persuaded in Sichuan dialect: "What are you doing... I said it before we set off. Our national defense army is not a warlord army, but a team of ordinary people. It helps and protects the people. It's what each of our Wehrmacht soldiers must do... Get up, get up right away..."

After another half month of long-distance migration, the temperature finally began to show signs of rising.Soon, an unprecedented piece of good news began to spread among the immigrants: "The destination has arrived, Lake Baikal has arrived..."

Because of the continuous migration for more than a month, at this moment, the time has come to May when the ice on Lake Baikal melts.When the mighty immigrants are getting closer and closer to Lake Baikal, a sky-blue lake that can't be seen at a glance suddenly appears in everyone's sight.Some people who didn't know the situation directly exclaimed: "Is this the sea, have we reached the sea again?"

However, when the clear lake water drank from the mouth, a cry of exclamation sounded on the shore of Lake Baikal: "This is not the sea, this is the lake water, the sweet lake water..."

When Xiong Shaowen, commander of the [-]th Division of the National Defense Forces, looked at the sky-blue lake of Lake Baikal in front of him, he couldn't help but burst into smiles.The sound of hurried footsteps suddenly reached his ears.During the migration for more than a month, Xiong Shaowen, who had never felt such a rush of footsteps, frowned, as if realizing something.

At the same time, Zhang Guoqiang, the chief of staff standing beside Xiong Shaowen, seemed to feel something too.Looking in the direction of the sound, a lieutenant officer wearing a thick military uniform and almost wrapped in a cotton jacket was walking towards the two of them, exhaling white breath.

Seeing this, Zhang Guoqiang subconsciously reminded: "The division seat is the communications officer of the Qianfeng Battalion..."

Xiong Shaowen nodded, and just when the other party walked in front of him, he said, "Lieutenant, is there something wrong with the Qianfeng Battalion, so anxious..."

The lieutenant officer who came in a hurry shook his head and replied: "Report sir, the Qianfeng Battalion found an old Maozi village five kilometers away from the forward. From the perspective of scale, there are about a thousand old Maozi living here. In addition, in this Lao Maozi village, there are also Lao Maozi garrisons, with a total strength of about 100 people..."

"The old Maozi village and the old Maozi garrison... Didn't these old Maozi receive an order that since a few months ago, Lake Baikal has belonged to the Chinese land. As Soviets. Even the Soviet army, they should voluntarily withdraw from Chinese land? "Hearing the news, Xiong Shaowen asked back with a serious face. [

Standing beside Xiong Shaowen, Zhang Guoqiang frowned, as if thinking of something.Xiong Shaowen reminded to the side: "Master, do you still remember the explanation given to us by the chief of staff before we set off?"

"Unwilling to fail, the Soviet veterans may send troops and Soviet civilians back to the Far East after the ice and snow melt in the Far East. This has achieved the purpose of actually controlling this area. Let our [-]th Division be on guard after entering Lake Baikal. If my guess is correct, the old Maozi and the Soviet army living here must have received some order and deliberately did not retreat. If our Chinese army does not send troops to occupy this place, they will have the actual control of Lake Baikal in disguise."

Xiong Shaowen nodded silently, and said in a heavy tone: "We have wiped out hundreds of thousands of troops, and we are still unwilling to fail. Fortunately, the commander-in-chief is wise. He emigrated to Lake Baikal one step ahead of the old man. Otherwise The Far East that our National Defense Forces have worked so hard to conquer will be taken by the old Maozi again."

After finishing speaking, a strong murderous aura began to slowly emanate from Xiong Shaowen's body.Facing a communication staff officer in front of him, he ordered decisively: "Staff Li, inform the three infantry regiment commanders that they will come here for a meeting immediately, and there are combat missions... After walking in the ice and snow for so long, now I can move my hands and feet. Lake Baikal is killing people..."

The communications staff had just left, and Xiong Shaowen had already turned his attention to the Liaison Officer of the Qianfeng Battalion, and continued to order: "Lieutenant, tell your battalion commander immediately: "The Qianfeng Battalion will disperse immediately in units of companies and platoons.In the shortest possible time, all the old Maozi villages and gathering areas along Lake Baikal were photographed.If nothing else, there must be Lao Maozi's garrison barracks and military depots in the entire Baikal area, and I will also take photos.If you have any news, immediately use the radio to contact the division headquarters..."

"Yes, Master..."

When the three regiment leaders scattered in the middle of the immigrant team dozens of kilometers in front of them hurried to Xiong Shaowen with a bloodthirsty look.A telegram was sent from the forward battalion to Xiong Shaowen through radio waves.

Not to Xiong Shaowen's surprise, by the lake about five kilometers away from the first village, Qianfengying once again found two Lao Maozi villages of the same size. Not only that, but one Lao Maozi was located in the middle of the three villages, and the size was about one battalion. The garrison barracks were also detected by the vanguard battalion...

Seeing Master Xiong Shaowen with an excited face in front of him, Chief of Staff Zhang Guoqiang asked: "Master, how do you plan to fight this battle... I just contacted the headquarters through the radio, and a preliminary estimate is that the old Maozi people living on both sides of Lake Baikal are about About 5 people. As for the Lao Maozi garrison, it is not clear for the time being. However, the actual situation we have detected shows that the ratio of the garrison here to the Lao Maozi civilians is about one to ten, and the size of the garrison is about 5000 people..."

Xiong Shaowen replied with a look of disdain: "Five thousand old Maozi garrison, although not many, but the smallest meat is still meat. Brothers have been starving for so long, it is time to find some enemies to move their shins. Otherwise, if this continues, the brothers will not even be able to fight, how can they defend Lake Baikal and block a possible new round of invasion by the Soviet Red Army."

1 Seeing the murderous look on Xiong Shaowen again, Chief of Staff Zhang Guoqiang asked back with a worried face: "Master, you don't intend to kill all these five thousand old men..."

Xiong Shaowen nodded without any concealment, and replied: "That's for sure. If we don't kill all the five thousand old men, how can we enslave the fifty thousand old men in the entire Baikal region? Without the help of these fifty thousand local old men, How do we build enough housing for 20 immigrants in a short period of time..."

Because of being by Li Guosheng's side for a long time, Xiong Shaowen never fought a battle with the goal of obtaining the maximum benefit.In Xiong Shaowen's eyes, this Lake Baikal area is very unfamiliar to him, the entire national defense force and 20 immigrants.If I want to survive, I must rely on the old Maozi aborigines who have been living here.And the only way to imagine gaining the real control of these old men is by force, to make the other party submit to themselves by force.

But as far as the current situation is concerned.The only force that can make the opponent submit is to wipe out all the five thousand local garrisons in front of them.Some people may ask, why not kill the local people, isn't that more realistic.After all, five thousand Soviet Red Army is five thousand strong labor force.Their role may exceed [-], or even [-] ordinary people.

In fact, this is not the case. Although the garrison of five thousand old men is Soviet, they are not locals.Killing them will not only deter the locals.It is not easy to arouse the hatred of the local people.After all, five thousand Soviet soldiers did not have much direct relationship with the local people.However, killing natives is different.

As long as there is a person, there will be relatives and family members.No matter who you kill, it may arouse the hatred of the local people.Under such circumstances, even if the opponent temporarily succumbs under the pressure of one's own force.but.The roots of hatred and revenge have sprouted in their hearts.After a long time, this kind of hatred will explode sooner or later, dealing a fatal blow to himself and the entire National Defense Force.

When the last piece of information was placed in front of Xiong Shaowen by the Qianfeng Battalion, a clear battle idea had emerged in Xiong Shaowen's mind.After glancing at the three colonels in front of him.He decisively ordered: "Brothers, the investigation results of the Qianfeng Battalion have come out. There are five battalion-sized Lao Maozi garrison barracks in front of us, and more than 50 garrisons are from a Lao Maozi village lined up to a company. .Preliminary estimates put the total strength of the Soviet Red Army at 8000.”

"In response to this situation, I ordered the 55th Regiment of the National Defense Forces to be responsible for destroying 56 old Maozi in the five barracks. The 57th Regiment was responsible for destroying all the old Maozi troops south of this line. Strong, gather them all for me. I use the 56th Regiment to wipe out all the Soviet Red Army north of this line, and the task of the [-]th Regiment is the same, to gather all the old men, young and strong in this area..."

"The division is directly under the army. As a reserve team, it is ready to participate in the battle at any time..."

After the order was issued, the division commander Xiong Shaowen reminded again: "You all remember that the key to this operation is not to kill people, but to take all the supplies hoarded by the Soviet Union in the Lake Baikal area for yourself while eliminating all the old Maozi garrisons. Yes. Of course, not only the materials in the hands of the old Maozi army, but also the materials in the hands of ordinary old Maozi people. In addition to leaving the necessary rations for the local people, I collect all the food and meat. Remember, we Chinese are the real masters here, since the old Maozi doesn’t want to leave, then they will be our Chinese people’s eternal plunder, unless they take the initiative to leave the Baikal region..."

"Yes, Master..."

The 55st, [-]nd, and [-]nd companies of the [-]th Regiment, led by the commander of the [-]st Battalion, wore white cloaks, with almost [-] soldiers. The Soviet barracks approached. [

At a distance of 200 meters, there was no movement in the dead Soviet barracks...

At a distance of [-] meters, the Soviet barracks still remained silent.

At a distance of 50 meters, in the sentry box at the entrance of the barracks, two old Maozi sentries holding rifles and sleeping soundly. When the eyes of the scouts were clearly seen, the two old Maozi still did not notice the enemy who was close at hand. It has come to the top of my head, taking my life away at any time.

"嗤嗤..." Two insignificant voices sounded from inside the sentry box, and two all-metal crossbow arrows emitting bursts of cold light easily penetrated the old sentry's neck without hindrance, and then slammed into the sentry box behind the soldier, preventing The sentinel fell with a sound.

Afterwards, hundreds of officers and soldiers of the Wehrmacht followed closely behind the scouts, and rushed into the Soviet barracks as if breaking a bank to control a flood.

"One infantry squad is in charge of one barracks. Let me attack them all with grenades, and send all the old men stationed here back to their hometowns...start attacking..." The battalion commander with a sneer on his face gave the order and took out a grenade with a wooden handle .

Pulling the string... a pungent white smoke quickly emerged from the end of the pomegranate handle...

The battalion commander holding a grenade counted silently to three times, then suddenly opened an old man's barracks in front of him, and slammed the grenade emitting white smoke into it.

"Boom..." A violent explosion sounded from inside the barracks, followed by acrid gunpowder smoke, which began to pour out from the door.Of course, accompanied by the billowing smoke, there was also the heart-piercing scream of Lao Maozi's injury.

The grenade thrown by the battalion commander was like a stone suddenly thrown into a calm lake, which directly made the small Soviet barracks turbulent.Deafening explosions, like firecrackers, sounded continuously in the Soviet barracks.Even if a few old men were not affected by the grenade, they held weapons and wanted to rush out of the barracks to fight back.

However, just as they opened the door, what greeted them was not only the biting cold wind, but also a gust of scorching rain.

Gunshots, grenade explosions... like a beautiful symphony, completely broke the decades-long peace of the Baikal region.At the same time, it also announced the arrival of a new era in the Baikal region. (to be continued...)
