After the Sixth Corps entered the battlefield, the first one encountered were the 122nd and 123rd Infantry Divisions belonging to the 28th Army of the German Northern Army Group.

The first battle of the Expeditionary Force was not going well, and it could even be said to be a little embarrassed.

Although he received winter training, the coldness of the hairy bear in winter exceeded the soldiers' imagination.

Because he was not used to the cold weather, on the first day of his encounter with the enemy, the 13th Division and 15th Division of the 11th Division, which were trembling with coldness, were chased by the 28th Army of De San for more than 10 kilometers.

Only after the main force of the Corps arrived did the front line be stabilized.

Zhang Shengqing and Fu Yisheng were so dirty that they almost dismissed the commanders of the previous three divisions.

However, after the defense line stabilized, the various divisions of the Expeditionary Force were surprised to find that their position was ahead of the Soviet army.

The front of more than 100 kilometers controlled by the Expeditionary Force actually became the protrusion of the entire defense line.

The first battle was covered in dust and his reputation of winning every battle was insulted. While the troops were reflecting and reviewing, the Maoxiong Command sent a commendation telegram.

The commanders of the three divisions were not dismissed because of this.

Four or five days later, the 10th Army and the 28th Army, which appeared directly in front of the Expeditionary Force.

In the following half month, Trist Hansen, the commander of the 10th Army of the Third Reich, commanded his troops to launch no less than ten attacks on the protruding units controlled by the Expeditionary Force.

With a solid defense line, the soldiers blocked the German devils, who were much taller than the Japanese devils, from the position in the cold.

The weather became colder and colder, and no one in Desan took down the protruding part of more than 100 kilometers controlled by the Expeditionary Force. In desperation, he turned to the defensive stage, and the front gradually calmed down.

After December, the weather became colder and the snow-covered knees are moving towards the waist.

In such a ghost weather, the soldiers of the Expeditionary Force were surprised to find that the surrounding bear troops became ready to move.

On December 5, heavy snow fell in the northern region again. Zhang Shengqing and Fu Yisheng were burning fire with several army commanders in the command center to discuss the just-concluded bombing of the Hokkaido.

Everyone sat around the big brazier, and a few potatoes were roasted on the edge of the brazier.

After eating the canned meat on his body, the most food supplies that the Expeditionary Army soldiers received were potatoes.

At the beginning, the logistics and food were the responsibility of the local volunteers.

In addition to a few potatoes, there is also a spoonful of strange flavored soup made from unknown food every day.

The soldiers are experiencing the destruction of wind and snow, and must always be alert to the German devils and are unwilling to let their stomachs accept unknown food destruction.

After reporting the situation to the Corps Command, Fu Yisheng hoped that the troops could cook their own meals.

However, the bears were unable to provide sufficient supplies and could not satisfy the stomachs of the expeditionary soldiers.

Potatoes and a small amount of bread were served on time, and there was almost no other food supply, so the idea of ​​opening the fire on your own could only give up.

"Accompanies the customs in the countryside!"

The troops come to fight, not to enjoy.

Driven by such thoughts, the soldiers had to accept food provided by local people.

Whether it is potatoes or soup, as long as it is food, it will be stuffed into your mouth.

Otherwise, the body will not be able to resist the cold outside and its resistance will decrease.

The officers were discussing enthusiastically, and Chief of Staff Lieutenant General Kachanov rushed in from outside in dust.

In the surging coldness, everyone saw the joy on Lieutenant General Kachanov's face.

Fu Yisheng moved to the side and made a place for Lieutenant General Kachanov.

"Old Ka, why are you so happy?" Zhang Shengqing asked in Chinese.

Kachanov grabbed a roasted potato from the brazier with bare hands and said while grinning and peeling the potatoes:

"The Germans want to end the war, hahahaha, they can't hold on!"

Zhang Shengqing and Fu Yisheng looked at each other and saw the doubts and solemnity in each other's eyes.

Zhang Shengqing waved his hand, and several commanders of the army understood and stood up and left the headquarters.

The fragrant potatoes in the brazier disappeared with the commander of the army.

"What happened?" Zhang Shengqing asked solemnly:

"What does the Germans mean to end the war?"

Kachanov ate a browned potato in his stomach in a few bites, and his body seemed to have warmed up. He glanced at the two of them and said:

"Dear Davarich, I just learned that the Germans want a truce."

Before Zhang Shengqing and Fu Yisheng could express their opinions, he said disdainfully:

"Millions of soldiers were sacrificed, countless cities and villages were reduced to ruins, and industries were basically paralyzed."

"It is a huge joke that they have taken over the oil fields, mines and fertile land of the great motherland. They have got what they want.

"Hahaha, the great Soviets have not failed, the moment of victory is coming, and the Supreme Command is planning a large-scale counterattack."

"The Red Army soldiers not only have to drive the enemy out of the borders, but also like the Chinese, they will fight to the enemy's hometown, paying their blood debts and paying them with blood. They will never have the possibility of standing up!"

Kanov looked excited. If it weren't for the lack of vodka in the command center, he would have really wanted to tilt his neck and pour a whole bottle.

Zhang Shengqing and Fu Yisheng inferred a lot of information from Kachanov's words.

This may be the reason why the surrounding bear troops are ready to move.

After a slight surprise, worries began to emerge.

The hairy bear soldiers can fight in ice and snow weather, and each unit can also launch a certain scale of counterattack to prevent the Germans from spending this winter safely.

But large-scale counterattacks are very dangerous.

The Third Reich blocked the enemy's forces outside Western Europe. Berlin, Paris, Warsaw and other places were not bombed by the Allied forces, and the military-industrial system was complete and there were signs of further development.

These military factories continuously supply cannons, aircraft and tanks to millions of soldiers on the front line.

In comparison, the hairy bear side is much weaker.

Under the current circumstances, tanks and materials mainly rely on foreign resources, and losses are difficult to replenish.

Zhang Shengqing thought carefully for a moment and said to Kachanov:

"Old Ka, the Germans are still strong, and I can't mobilize tank support when launching a counterattack in Ice and Snow Day."

“Is the lessons from last winter and spring not serious enough?”

Kachanov knew that Zhang Shengqing was talking about the Soviet army forgot to defend and collapsed across the board.

His excitement calmed down a little, and he said seriously while pulling the brazier:

"Davarishi, there are only one of the three most important cities in the great motherland, and each city has been turned into ruins."

"The enemy is transporting industrial equipment to the lower reaches of the Volga River. They are pumping the black blood of the great motherland."

"The lower reaches of the Volga River, on both sides of the Dnieper River are world-renowned grain production areas. If we lose these places, we not only lose 80 million people, but also lose the grain production area with an annual output of more than 1 billion ptes."

(Put, weight unit, one put is about 16.38 kg!)

"Due to the scarcity of steel, the industrial production capacity of the great motherland has dropped significantly, and even cars cannot be produced, so they can only produce tanks as much as possible."

Kachanov sighed.

"The enemy took the initiative to seek a truce, proving that they had shaken to a certain extent. This is the opportunity for all Red Army soldiers, and we have no way to retreat!"

Both Zhang Shengqing and Fu Yisheng knew that what Kachanov was talking about was the truth, and they were speechless for a moment, so they could only look at the brazier silently.

It seems to be to dispel the concerns of Chinese friends, Kachanov took the initiative to say:

"You don't have to worry. With the resources of your country and the United States, we will definitely be able to fight this battle."

From the subsequent conversation, we learned that Mao Wang had concentrated more than 2,000 tanks, one-third of which were supported by China, and the other two-thirds were supported by the United States.

At this stage, the strategic focus of the bears is on the lower reaches of the Volga River, and they want to regain grain-producing areas and oil fields.

The north is mainly responsible for the production war.

The counterattack was around mid-December.

The Sixth Corps will be the main force of the North Road attack.
