Chapter 1213: Snowfall
Trains from all over the country are speeding to deliver supplies to the Northeast.
A million-strong army consumes more than just a train in a day, and a large amount of supplies must be supplied to the troops every day. Hu Guoshan's task is not to manage logistics, because there is a special person in charge, and if the logistics are delayed, he only needs to use military law to deal with the people who manage the logistics.
But today he personally came to the train station and waited on the platform. Because there is a person he has to pick up on this train today - Fu Hongyu.
Since Liao Fan called, Hu Guoshan has taken this matter to heart. The situation in the Northeast is well known to them, and Fu Hongyu's arrival can at least give a reassurance to the million-strong army in the Northeast.
But Hu Guoshan made a mistake, when he arrived at the train station, he realized that he didn't know which train Fu Hongyu and they were taking to arrive at the station.
"It's a problem, there are hundreds of trains a day to and from us, what's the matter?"
Because of the special reasons in the Northeast, it is estimated that few people can know which train is what it is for except for the logistics brothers.
"Why are you all stunned here, and don't go to ask the brothers in logistics." Hu Guoshan yelled at his guards impatiently.
It was no one else in the car, it was Fu Hongyu, which was enough to give Hu Guoshan a headache, and when he was talking to Liao Fan that day, he also let Fu Hongyu hear it, and he felt that he was about to face a catastrophe.
Zhao Caizhu, who was on the side, looked at Hu Guoshan as if he was watching the excitement: "I said Lao Hu, sister-in-law definitely doesn't have time to worry about you." ”
Although the epidemic in the Northeast has not yet spread to the whole territory, it has also reached an urgent situation, I am afraid that Fu Hongyu will rest for a night when he comes to them, and the next day they will take a car to the area where the epidemic broke out.
"If you can't find any trains, you can find them for me one by one."
Hu Guoshan didn't have the heart to quarrel with Zhao Caizhu, Fu Hongyu was their sister-in-law, this was an ironclad fact, just like a relative! Liao Fan personally called him to explain this matter, how could he be sloppy?
"Lao Zhao, my sister-in-law was our god in Taihang Mountain, and the scalpel in her hand saved thousands of our soldiers."
When Fu Hongyu was a doctor in Taihang Mountain, he treated many soldiers and officers, and in the hearts of Hu Guoshan and others, his prestige was no worse than Liao Fan.
Although Fu Hongyu has never been on the battlefield, she has also lived and died with them, and she is Liao Fan's wife, and in addition to everyone's sister-in-law, there seems to be a kind of brotherly feeling in it.
"Commander, Commander, we found out that only five trains between four and half past four will enter the station."
"I have to be given which column to go to."
He is a commander-in-chief in charge of all the troops in the Northeast, and if he doesn't even know which train Fu Hongyu takes to enter the Northeast, it will make people laugh.
As the main power leader in the Northeast, he must be more familiar with every move in the Northeast than his own kangtou, which is the reason why Hu Guoshan wants to be more serious.
After all, Fu Hongyu's identity is not ordinary, and the people she brought are all key personnel in this work. People are not here to feast, they are here to work hard.
Hu Guoshan, as the commander-in-chief of the Northeast, should also receive these people who come to the Northeast to work hard, although they are not soldiers, but they are soldiers in their field.
"Xiao Zhang, go and get the car ready, and after everyone gets off the car, immediately arrange for them to go to the tent we have arranged."
The cold weather in the northeast made Hu Guoshan, who had rough skin and thick meat, a little unbearable, and after waiting at the train station for a while, he felt that his whole person was not very good.
Fortunately, there are buildings around the train station, not the kind that is ventilated on all sides, otherwise Hu Guoshan would have been impatient to wait and hide and wait for the train to enter the station and he ran out.
After waiting at the train station for half an hour, the guards finally figured out the train Fu Hongyu was in.
"Wait for the queue, fifteen minutes before the train enters the station, no one is allowed to approach the train, Minister Fu will take my car, and the rest of the personnel will be arranged to get on the truck."
Hu Guoshan had already asked the soldiers to prepare warm tents, these tents were made of sheepskin, even if it was cold and windy, the tents were not airtight, and each tent had a stove and hot water.
The weather in the northeast was really unfriendly, and before Fu Hongyu and them arrived, the clouds in the sky were getting thicker and thicker, as if there were signs of a snowstorm.
Hu Guoshan looked at the time, and then looked up at the sky, it is estimated that there will be a heavy snowfall tonight, and the staff is afraid that tomorrow's trip will be delayed.
However, it depends on the attitude of the Ministry of Health staff, and if they insist on going to the area where the outbreak broke out tomorrow, Hu Guoshan will have to prepare a car for them and then arrange for troops to protect them.
Finally the sky darkened completely, the clouds were getting thicker, and the train station had to turn on all the lights.
"Commander, there may be a blizzard, and it is estimated that there may be problems with our train transportation after the snowfall." The stationmaster of the railway station ran over to report to Hu Guoshan.
Every time a heavy snowfall is overcome, rail transport is bound to get into a lot of trouble.
"If you encounter any trouble, report it immediately, and I will send troops to clear the snow on the railway overnight, and we must ensure that all the materials of our troops are not leaked."
Heavy snow is a very big difficulty for the troops in the northeast at present, and the army's supplies are all transported from the pass, and if the heavy snow blocks the roads, the millions of troops will have no food, clothing, and supplies.
"Yes!"
The sky was getting darker and darker, and Zhao Caizhu began to worry about whether Fu Hongyu's train would be able to arrive on time.
"I hope there won't be a problem with the train they are taking, Minister Fu!"
However, the more critical the time, the easier it is to drop the chain, the train has no problems, and the railway has problems.
Because of the needs of the troops, many new routes have been laid on the railway to the northeast, and although the routes have been added, the railway has been overloaded with the continuous transportation of troops day and night.
And the current smelting technology in China really can't catch up with the little devils, the carbon content of iron is too high, the weather is cold, the iron is easy to become brittle, so the rails finally have problems under overload operation, and there are two cracks in the railway for more than ten miles.
In order to avoid the derailment of the train, the railway troops have already rushed to repair it, and the train has been delayed for two hours.
The scheduled time was to arrive at the destination at about four o'clock in the afternoon, but Hu Guoshan, who had waited for an extra hour at the train station, did not wait for the arrival of Fu Hongyu and their train.
Seeing that snowflakes began to fall in the sky, Hu Guoshan became more and more impatient. There must be something wrong with the train.
"Let the stationmaster immediately call and inquire about the railway stations along the way, and tell the car soldiers to be ready to leave at any time and find people along the railway line."
If the snow was heavier than they expected, the train might not be able to move for days and nights on the railroad, and there wouldn't be enough supplies on the train as there were for the troops.
No one wants to starve and freeze on the train, and before they reach their destination, they are cut off by a snowfall.
Therefore, Hu Guoshan immediately asked the troops to make emergency preparations and ensure the safety of personnel first.
The snow tends to get heavier and heavier, and the ground quickly turns white, and if this trend continues, the road will be difficult to navigate for a few hours.
"Report to the commander, Minister Fu, their train has passed Wulitun."
"Lao Zhao, you will meet the command first, the problem of the troops is handed over to you, I will set off with the convoy, and I must take Minister Fu and them all over before the heavy snow closes the road, except for a railway station in Wulitun, there is no one around the road within a radius of dozens of miles."
The problem is serious, and it is likely that a snowfall overnight will freeze the entire train to death.
The convoy set off immediately, and they had already stocked up on fuel, just in case of accidents. They are racing against time, against God, and for every minute of delay, they risk being stranded in the wild.
The heavy snow is not only an ordeal for Hu Guoshan and them, but also unfriendly to the little devils.
Once a snow falls, the Japanese army is as if they are isolated from the world. Not only was there no material support, but communication with the outside world was only left between several cities, and the reconnaissance personnel they sent out also disappeared.
In fact, the heavy snow is a kind of mercy to the soldiers of the little devils, and this short-term mercy can make them less tormented by the Chinese Air Force.
They can hide and keep each other warm, and they no longer have to worry about the sudden arrival of the Chinese Air Force to drop bombs, no longer have to fight fires, and then get burned without medical treatment.
The Japanese army was at the end of their rope, although they still controlled a very large area, but when they left the city, the Japanese army was worried about being ambushed.
The city is still under the control of the little devils, but every road outside the city may have an ambush by the Chinese army, which is a guerrilla force operating behind enemy lines, and there are also troops sent by Hu Guoshan, in addition to reconnoitring the Japanese army, just to create some trouble for the Japanese army, so that they know that this war of aggression will make them unpeaceful in their lives.
When Hu Guoshan drove to pick up the staff of the Ministry of Health, the little devils were also holding an emergency meeting, and they didn't want to just sit back and wait for death, this feeling of waiting to be shot was really bad.
The most important thing is the morale problem, which has not been solved since the defeat. After entering the winter, all kinds of supplies are scarce, and the battle cannot be won, so where can the soldiers maintain high morale.
So the little devil came up with a way to drop biological and chemical weapons, which is not a good way for the little devil.
The first choice is the spread of the virus, the virus does not distinguish nationality, he can infect Chinese can also infect little devils. If the virus they dropped really broke out on a large scale, the Chinese army in the northeast would also be infected, and the little devils would also die from the evil results they planted.
But the Japanese army still chose this road, because they had no way out, and they had no choice but to make this kind of dog jumping over the wall.
