A heavy snowfall turned the vast area north of the Yangtze River into a snow country, and in such extremely bad weather, the devils were also frozen and shrunk in the warm Gaoyou City and the fortresses everywhere.

After all, the weather was so bad that under the baptism of the cold snap from the south of the Siberian plateau, there was snow everywhere, and the roads were also heavily covered with snow, so that the devil mobile unit with many cars was paralyzed and could not move.

Although leaving the car, the devil can also march and fight, but in such a cold weather, it is no different from tormenting in the ice cellar, frostbite and illness can reduce the combat effectiveness of the troops a lot, so the devil wisely chose to hibernate.

"Our internal information has sent back the news that Gaoyou's devils have no plans to launch a large-scale military operation recently, and because the devils have not taken sufficient precautions against this cold snap this time, the devil's hospital has been overcrowded, and the number of injured and sick patients has increased sharply."

When Liu Sheng, the staff officer in charge of intelligence, reported the news to Yang Ling, Yang Ling's mood did not fluctuate much, which was similar to his expectations.

Now the devils have relied more and more on mechanized marching, and often when they are dispatched, they open the road on three wheels, and the automobile transport troops follow up, and the speed is very fast.

Once a certain place is attacked, they can quickly reinforce it, and once the guerrilla troops are slow to react, they may be surrounded by devils.

But now a heavy snowfall has made the devil's car lie down, and the devil is not very adapted to China's climate, so it is expected that he will not move now.

When he first fought in Wanjia Lingxun, it was the season of scorching heat, and the devils also underestimated the weather, so that the number of casualties such as heat stroke in the early battle of the devils was more than the combat attrition.

"The little devil is now a turtle with a shrunken head, I'm afraid there won't be a large-scale military operation before the beginning of spring, we can finally take a break."

Hearing that the devil can't be dispatched now, the brothers' faces all showed relaxed expressions, after all, they have been fighting at a high intensity, which is indeed physically and mentally exhausting.

Yang Ling knocked on the table with a smile and reminded: "Don't you have the idea of resting and relaxing now, as the saying goes, practice three times in summer, practice three nine in winter, and now there is no combat mission, it is a good time for our Northern Jiangsu Corps to train troops." ”

"Come on, I can't get a good night's sleep." After hearing Yang Ling's words, Lei Xiong also sighed.

The officers above the battalion level who were roasting around the hot brazier all had bitter expressions on their faces, thinking that they could take the opportunity to rest, who knew that Yang Ling was going to train the troops, and now it was time for them to be busy.

Yang Ling said with a smile: "Don't cry with a sad face, I can say it in advance, if anyone performs well in this big training, if you have a crush on a girl, I, the captain, will personally say the matchmaker and ask you for a daughter-in-law, how about it?" ”

"This is good!" After hearing Yang Ling's proposal, the officers in the room were all excited and applauded.

When they first joined the army, the conscripts said that they would go back in a year or two, but in the end, when they arrived in the army, it became a postponement of retirement, and then it has been postponed until now, let alone begging for a daughter-in-law, and they can't even go back home.

And most of the officers and soldiers of these units are bachelors, who have been marching and fighting everywhere, and with the constraints of military discipline, how can they have the opportunity to ask for a daughter-in-law.

This is also why many troops often have incidents of desertion and violation of military discipline to harm those girls, because many people don't know when they will die on the battlefield, and they don't want their homes to be cut off from incense, so they often take risks.

But now that Yang Ling has gained a firm foothold behind enemy lines, and has fought hard to create a large base area, it is better to let them start a family on the spot than to let the brothers miss their distant home all the time.

This will not only give the brothers a head start and hope, but also give them a sense of belonging, and they can fight bravely and tenaciously against the devils to defend this land and the family behind them, and virtually improve the combat effectiveness of the troops.

"But I can make it clear, you all have to give me good training, if the training is not good, let alone please your daughter-in-law, I still have to beat your board." Yang Ling looked at the excited brothers and reminded with a smile.

"Don't worry, sir, we will definitely train with the strength to eat!" Now that there is a rush, everyone is extraordinarily enthusiastic.

"Hahaha, this daughter-in-law doesn't have a word, what bad things do you kid think." After hearing the knife's words, the flower dog quipped.

"Go, go, which pot is not opened." In the face of the ridicule of the flower dog, the knife opened his mouth angrily.

"When I have a son, I will let him follow Chief Yang to fight devils, as long as the little devil does not quit China, our children and grandchildren will continue to fight with him." Staff Officer Lei Xiong swore by it.

"And what if we have a daughter then?" Liu Sheng leaned over and said.

Lei Xiong raised his head: "What's wrong with my daughter, the commentary also said that Mu Guiying is in command and goes on the expedition, if I give birth to a daughter in the future, then I still have to be like him and me, and carry it to kill devils!" ”

"I said Lao Lei, you are such a big boss, don't think about having a son and a daughter first, let's think about it first, which girl likes you and is willing to have a child with you." A staff officer reminded with a smile.

Staff officer Lei Xiong was full of unconvinced: "Why don't we make a bet to see who asks for a daughter-in-law first?" ”

"Bet, bet, who's afraid of whom, if you can get a daughter-in-law before me, then how about my son marrying your daughter in the future?"

"Get out, if you want to marry my son and marry your daughter."

Hearing the two of them talking, the officers in the room all laughed, and the atmosphere seemed extraordinarily relaxed.

"I'm here to remind you, although I allow you to start a family on the spot, if the girl you like doesn't want to, you can't force it, everything has to be consensual, do you hear clearly?"

"Sir, rest assured, we will never force other girls, everything is consensual." The brethren all spoke up to reassure.

Yang Lingrang allowed the brothers to marry local girls, but also to have a sense of belonging and improve their combat effectiveness, but it was not a violation of military discipline.

Because in the army of Chongqing, this aspect is very relaxed, and many officers have taken a lot of concubines in the process of changing to war.

Yang Ling remembered that when the troops entered Changchun, more than 3,000 officers and soldiers got married in one day, and of course, with the increase in the number of family members of the army, the combat effectiveness of the troops was also weakened, and they were finally defeated.

However, according to the specific analysis of specific issues, Yang Ling now allows the brothers to marry is also conditional, they must be well trained, able to win battles, and supervised, so that the brothers will not fall into the gentle township after marriage and forget the national hatred and family hatred.

After all, the little devils still occupy a large area of Chinese territory, and the main task now is to fight the devils, and getting married is just an auxiliary means to improve the sense of belonging and morale of the troops.
