The day slowly brightened in the cold temperature. Zhukov's army spent the night lit bonfires in the cold night. The soldiers' stomachs were half full, and they were naturally much weaker to resist the cold, and many of them were frozen and cold in the hungry and cold nights. As the army marched, there were constant coughs and sneezes, making the silent walking team no longer quiet.

But the army did not dare to stay, they must first rush to the town, otherwise, after tonight, they would be left without food, and the soldiers' colds would be serious if they were not treated.

However, Zhukov did not know that the advance army he was guarding against did not attack his army, and many of his precautions were ineffective, except that on the way, a pair of eyes were staring at them under the snow.

The advance army did not attack his large army, but the Huya and the Flying Tigers moved in full.

When the reconnaissance posts monitoring the towns saw that the Russian troops had begun to collect food and rushed to the next city, the Huya team members left the territory by helicopter or ski, crossed the border that was already unguarded, and touched their respective targets.

The drawbacks of poor communication revealed its fatal weakness at this moment. Zhukov's army had no baggage, and the low-power walkie-talkies in the supplies were not carried, and they were all discarded with the supplies, so that he only had a radio station, and could not contact all the troops who went out, only knowing that those troops had already arrived in the town, or were about to arrive.

During the march, hunger and cold continued to erode the Russian army, they had just been defeated, and their mood was already low, and in such an embarrassing situation, they began to be at a loss one by one, and began to panic, not knowing what the next road would be, whether they could win the war.

Although the panic did not spread, and no one talked about it, the demon seed had been planted in their hearts and sprouted and grew.

Huya's movements are very fast. When the enemy army reached Cheremkhovo and gathered hundreds of horses, divided their troops and hurried to the next town, quickly moving forward to collect food in advance, they reached the edge of these towns and hid in the snow. Wait for the right moment.

Cheremkhovo was very fast, but there were less than 20,000 people here, and in the afternoon, they had only collected more than 10,000 catties of food.

The recruiting troops did not wait for all the rations to be collected, and when they were halfway through the rations, two battalions escorted the rations to the army. It is estimated that when it gets dark, you will be able to meet the army and solve the urgent needs of the army.

In the snow, a pair of eyes stared at the departing grain requisition troops but did not move. They were ordered to spare the grain. Do not make the action of attacking.

Zuo Boyang is not a little stronger than Dong Ku in terms of operational command, but in some respects he is shallower than Liu Cheng's calculations.

Not attacking the grain convoy in Cheremkhovo is nothing more than allowing the army to reach the town smoothly, otherwise, there will be an uncontrollable escape on the way.

And in the original plan, the Russian army rushed to these towns, otherwise, wouldn't it be on the road to let the army disperse?

Zhukov's mood at this time was also extremely low. He didn't know what the bearded man would do to him. Moreover, he has lost his fighting spirit. The strength of the enemy army made him very powerless. He saw with his own eyes that the opponent's planes blew up thousands of his tanks in the air, completely rendering his armored forces useless, and in front of the opponent, it was a torch.

Depressed, morale plummeted, but as a soldier. He hadn't been so depressed that he had forgotten his duty. On the way to the march, he again sent a small team to use the two horses that had been camped and killed last night, and the boiled horse meat to eat on the road, and drove to Yakutsk. A remote town.

There, no one will move after the heavy snow closes the road, there is the secret grain base of the Begil Military District, and there, there are two regiments guarded, located in the middle reaches of the Lemo River on the side of the Verkhosyansk Mountains, for reserves in case of war near the Bering Strait, as well as a considerable amount of ammunition.

Zhukov did not know if there was an order not to let it move, otherwise there would be hundreds of trucks and hundreds of tanks transporting grain, and in two days at most, they would have been able to reach Lake Baikal along the ice of the Lemo River and solve the problem of the food crisis of the army.

There, no one knows, except for a few high-level Zhilu Dao, most of them don't know that there is such a plain, such a storage base, especially in the case of heavy snow blocking the road, and no one will know that there is such a place thousands of kilometers away, and it is also the only place where Zhukov can solve the grain problem.

Their departure is not a secret, at least not in the eyes of those who watch the army.

Seeing that a battalion of troops left the army lightly, the surveillance squad did not understand why they did not march in the direction of Bergaske, but directly in the direction of Lake Baikal.

After the reconnaissance team reported the situation, they quickly responded to the order, and the team of ten people concentrated most of the food of their companions around them, and under the leadership of two Oroqen warriors, they carried a fifteen-watt radio station on their backs, and hung the departing team from a distance, and disappeared into the snow.

After a day of agony, Zhukov's army marched less than 50 kilometers, and the march became slower and slower in the face of hunger and cold.

Fortunately, in the afternoon, the army joined up with the supply team, and then, after more than two hours of busyness, the food was distributed among the troops, which was barely enough to support them to the town.

This night, the cold air was filled with the fragrance of rice porridge, so that the cold and hungry Russian army could be regarded as replenishing their physical strength, and their emotions were also soothed, and they all knew that they would be able to arrive in town safely tomorrow morning.

But they didn't know what to do, and when they got to the town, there was not much food there, at least not for the army.

At night, Zhukov sat in the tent, holding a glass of red wine, silently drinking. The other generals were also silent, and everyone's mood was not high. They all have the same frustration as Zhukov. After more than a month of fierce fighting, the army was trapped here, and the other side obviously did not have the strength to kill them all, otherwise, as long as the other side occupied the town, or robbed the food in the hands of the civilians, they would starve to death in the cold.

They didn't have the slightest idea at this time, and in the face of the absolute superiority of the advance army in the air, the thick armor of the tanks, the sharp artillery fire, and the maneuvering speed and fierce fire of the armored vehicles, they really couldn't think of any way to deal with these. Although these have not yet reached the crushing level, they are not able to deal with them now. There is also the power of the opponent's artillery, although Zhukov has already thought that the opponent's artillery is shelling around a point with multiple shells, and it is firing at the same time, but what do they use to fight back? What to defend against?

The range and accuracy of the opponent's guns are difficult to compete with with the blocking guns, they are already the limit within five hundred meters, and the accuracy is greatly reduced, while the opponent can achieve a headshot at seven or eight hundred meters, which is not a little bit of a gap.

"Comrades."

After a long silence, Zhukov took the lead and said: "Our current situation is not optimistic, for today's plan can only be as a base camp, the auxiliary force of the attack in Central Asia, we lack ammunition and food and medicine, as the main attack, there is no great ability, everyone said, do we have more defense, relying on the towns, or concentrate all the forces, to break the net?" ”

"Since there is no clear order for the base camp, my opinion is to concentrate near Kyakhta and attack the army on all fronts, otherwise, we are afraid that we will not be able to wait for the supplies of the base camp and will starve to death."

"yes. The air is already the opponent's world, the three waves of air transport supplies in the base camp were shot down by the other side, one failed to reach our airspace, and now, the base camp has also given up the idea of air transportation, we don't fight against the water, the smoke cannon is coming, only waiting to freeze to death and starve to death. ”

Zhukov took a deep breath, looked at everyone and said: "It seems that we can only be born after death, tomorrow the army will march quickly, rush to Belgaske, rush to Kyakhta, and if the base camp does not move within three days, we will take the lead in attacking!" ”

After a short period of planning, there is only one way to attack the whole line of the mountains and fields, even if it is not necessary to break through the opponent's defense line, it is necessary to attract the opponent's troops, if the base camp launches an attack according to this plan, then even if they are annihilated, they will end up heroic, better than freezing to death and not getting anything.

At this time, they all knew a little bit, either they would die in battle, or they would freeze to death and starve to death. The soldiers didn't know that the towns had no food, but they knew it, and the little food they had raised was not enough to last the army through the long winter.

Zhukov didn't say anything about the secret grain base, worried that the general's heart would be scattered, and he would have to line up a large army to escort it. In this way, it is possible to be discovered by the advance army, then, he has nothing. In one, he can't get food for a few days of marching, and he can't let the team go hungry for two or three days, or even longer, so let's rush to the destination to eat.

They are preparing for the fish to die and the net will be broken, but they don't know what to do, and what awaits them will be a catastrophe.

At this time, in Mongolia, the dispatch of the army had been completed, and the defense along the Sayan Mountains was impregnable, and Dong Ku was no longer worried.

The enemy's sneak attack has been confirmed, and the scouts and Oroqen warriors who rushed to the Tianshan Mountains first saw the army quietly passing through the woods and valleys, and the target was to enter the country from Xinjiang.

Soviet Russia put on a posture of gathering a large army towards Novosibirsk and Bisk, but in the clouds, the troops secretly entered the Tianshan Mountains from Almaty, crossed the Kashgar Lake, and entered Xinjiang.

However, the bearded man didn't know what to do, his every move was under Dong Ku's control, if it weren't for the occupation of the Novosibirsk region, Dong Ku had already wiped out Zhukov's army at this time, where would he play games with them? (To be continued......)
