    @@@@@@@

    On the upper reaches of the Ob River, thirty kilometers northwest of Surgut, a convoy of hundreds of white "Arctic" Type 2 armored sled combat vehicles and sled transport vehicles drove quickly through the snow in the forest. If it were not noisy  The sound of engines makes it difficult to distinguish them from the surrounding scenery with the naked eye.

    "Arctic" series of armored sled combat vehicles are equipment mass-produced after absorbing the winter combat experience of the previous year. At first glance, they look like an "iron box" with four sled plates, and an aviation piston engine installed at the tail.  The inner layer of the "box" is made of plywood, and the outer layer is made of 11mm steel plate. The middle layer is filled with asbestos. The thickness of the front steel plate can be additionally strengthened as needed.  The appearance is similar to the Soviet NKL-26 sled vehicle. In summer, the sled board is removed and the wheels are installed to become an armed off-road vehicle.  As an auxiliary combat vehicle, the "Arctic" series sleds are designed based on the principle of economy and simplicity. They have a maximum speed of 50 kilometers per hour, a maximum mileage of 170 kilometers, and can seat three people.  The sealed machine gun tower on the top can hold a 12.7mm heavy machine gun or a 7.62mm general-purpose machine gun. Most of the engines are old Air Force goods. There are also 2 kerosene heaters in the compartment. The outside of the transport type is made of ordinary automobile steel plates.  Can transport 1 ton of bulk cargo.  Because the "Arctic" sled is the only vehicle that can meet the needs of patrolling, transporting and fighting in extremely cold weather.  Therefore, since the Ministry of Defense placed a large order last summer, more than 5,000 vehicles have been delivered.

    In the car in the middle of the motorcade, there was a thin officer about fifty years old sitting.  He is the naval commander Bingwen who volunteered to secretly admit his contact with Beria.  To maintain confidentiality, the convoy soldiers participating in the operation were all from the Marine Corps "Sea Serpents" reconnaissance group.  It is completely incompatible with the land and air forces fighting in Central Asia.  "It's too cold today." Although the two kerosene heaters in the carriage were turned on, Bingwen, who had been dealing with the navy and the tropics for decades, still felt very cold.  Even the N3 heavy-duty cold-weather suit I was wearing didn't seem to be working.

    "Haha, it has picked up a lot in the past few days. If you had come here half a month ago, it would have been cold." The man sitting next to him is the Commissioner of the Central Asian Allied Ethnic Affairs Office under the Political Department of the General Staff, and the National Socialist  Rising star Ng Chung-ho.  This political department commissioner with rich experience in politics and dealing with ethnic issues was Fang Rui's right-hand man, and the two together managed civil issues in Central Asia during the war.  Teach locals step-by-step how to manage the country.

    Although most of Central Asia has been liberated, because the war has not yet ended, the National Defense Force still controls military power and civil jurisdiction, so it still has the task of political brainwashing and placement of "special personnel", so Yan Baohang's National Strategic Intelligence Bureau secretly spent  His name is on the roster.

    "I heard the chief of staff say several times before coming here that a lot of people will be sacrificed, right?" Bingwen asked.

    Wu Zhonghao took a deep breath.  Speaking of the abnormal temperature some time ago, he still had lingering fears.  Since late December last year, there have been heavy snowfalls in Siberia, northern Kazakhstan, the Urals and Moscow. After January, the temperature in these areas plummeted to about minus 40 degrees!  In some places it even dropped to minus 47 degrees!  (It is recorded in history, not fabricated).  The most severe low-temperature weather in thirty years has brought great trouble to Kazakhstan, which has just begun to recover.  About 300,000 livestock were frozen to death and 700,000 people were affected, so all industries and mines were shut down.  Even the military has been greatly affected, with transportation lines almost paralyzed and truck operations suspended and air services intermittent.  Even the most stable railway transportation volume has dropped to 20% of usual levels.  If the theater headquarters hadn't followed Yang Qiu's order, they would have stopped decisively after entering the Urals.  If we repair and expand the railway first and transport winter supplies to the front line first, I am afraid that the millions of troops entering the Urals will freeze to death!  But even with advance preparations, more than 10,000 soldiers died due to hypothermia, and more than 100,000 non-combat casualties were lost.

    "What about the Soviet Union?"

    "The people in Beria will exchange some information in this regard later, but from the information we have, Moscow has had an extremely bad year. The domestic food shortage is very serious, especially the lack of cotton and meat. The Don River Basin and Ukraine  There have been several cases of large-scale freezing to death in France. It is said that Stalin has given Khrushchev full responsibility for the production of grain and cotton. There is also news that the Soviet Union specially added an extra clause in the Soviet-German negotiations, hoping that after the German army captured Egypt, they would  A portion of this 'cotton warehouse' was given to the Soviet Union."

    Egypt is the world's largest producer of long-staple cotton. Due to waterway blockades and other factors, export difficulties caused economic collapse after the war broke out. Yang Qiu used this opportunity to ask Bezuyi to visit Cairo and propose cotton in exchange for aid and industrial products.  It already controls 60% of Egypt's long-staple cotton exports, helping Egypt gradually get rid of its dependence on European funds and export markets.

    Bingwen looked out the window and frowned slightly. You must know that the General Staff had sent 50,000 residential shelters (containers) with heaters to the Ural front line in December, as well as 3.3 million tons of winter food and cold protection materials. Unexpectedly  There is also such a large non-combat attrition.  It can be seen that it is no accident that so many conquerors fell in Moscow in history, so Yang Qiu also paid special attention to winter preparations and strictly controlled thePrevent unnecessary operations in winter.  However, it can also be seen from this that the Soviet-German alliance is not as terrible as imagined. Perhaps the situation will be like the last European War, where the Axis powers will eventually be completely overwhelmed by food shortages.

    When I was about to continue asking about the situation, some moving black spots appeared in the woods in the distance.  The combat sled in front immediately slowed down, and the machine gun tower quickly turned in that direction.  "It's the Arctic reindeer, it should be them." After Wu Zhonghao saw clearly what the black spots were, he took out a pair of wide sunglasses and handed them over: "General, bring them with you. They can prevent snow blindness and also cover your face." Bingwen  If he didn't refuse, his identity couldn't be exposed. If this matter hadn't been so troublesome for Yang Qiu, he wouldn't have come in person.  After putting on his sunglasses, he leaned back, picked up a telescope and started observing.

    Perhaps it was the hum of the engine that made the reindeer herd uneasy. There was a commotion on the opposite side, and a reindeer car came up a moment later.  Wu Zhonghao tightened his cold-weather clothes and opened the door. A transport sleigh in front also opened the door. A naval intelligence colonel with an Army logo on the cold-weather clothes and two "Sea Serpent" commando soldiers also disguised as the Army escorted him.  Vanikov, who came to China to contact us, greeted him.

    Because the snow covered their knees, it took the four of them more than ten minutes to get to the front.  Although I couldn't hear what both sides said.  But you can still see through the telescope that Wu Zhonghao is standing next to Vanikov.  Say something to the man on the reindeer cart.  A few minutes later, a group of reindeer carts came running over from the black reindeer carts in the distance, and Wu Zhonghao also sent a signal for everyone to unload.

    This is the first batch of goods, all of which are captured Soviet-made weapons, totaling 8,600 Mosin-Nagant rifles, DP light machine guns, PPSH submachine guns, bullets, grenades, explosives and other equipment.  As agreed, China will deliver all the equipment of the three light infantry divisions in this way within the next two weeks, while Beria will hand over the Soviet Union and Soviet intelligence he possesses to the National Defense Forces.  So for the unloading here, wooden boxes were also unloaded from the reindeer cart opposite.  There are forty or fifty in number.

    Bingwen looked carefully. Judging from the clothes, these anti-Soviet guerrillas were basically dressed as herdsmen, and their weapons and equipment were also various. Several people who looked like officers were obviously excited to see boxes and boxes of weapons and ammunition.  However, some of the people who had not come up to hold the battle in the distance were obviously different. They were all armed with PPSH submachine guns. Behind the reindeer vehicle, there were actually two ZIS-3 76mm cannons that the main Soviet army had just equipped.  This gun performs very well.  The Ministry of War had previously sent a message to the troops asking all armored units to be careful of this kind of artillery. Unexpectedly, they actually saw it in a guerrilla group.  This shows that Beria is likely to have secret contacts with some domestic troops!

    The delivery went smoothly. An hour later, Wu Zhonghao, who was covered in bruises from the cold, returned to the car with three boxes.  "General, the goods have been inspected." After sitting down, he immediately took out a Russian document from his arms: "This is an extra document they gave me. I have read it. It is some news about the Soviet-German negotiations.  The last article says that Zhukov has been transferred to Odessa last week, along with 3 tank brigades, 1 anti-aircraft division and 3 infantry divisions. The Black Sea Fleet also has many ships from Sevastopo  His whereabouts after leaving the port are unknown. It is written here that Romania's GC International also discovered two German armored divisions in the Black Sea port near the border between the Soviet Union and Romania, so Beria and others speculated that the Soviet Union and Germany are probably close to reaching negotiations and formal alliance! Black Sea Fleet  Departure and Zhukov¡¯s transfer are likely to land in Turkey hand in hand!¡±

    "This information is very important. It must be sent back to the country immediately." Bingwen immediately collected the information and asked, "You just said Beria, is he here too?"

    "No, it's the person below. He said that Beria specifically asked him to convey the reminder."

    ¡°Then let¡¯s go and go back as soon as possible.¡± Bingwen waved his hand and ordered to turn around and leave.  After the convoy started, the other side was obviously relieved. A large number of guerrilla soldiers came out of the woods and loaded weapons and ammunition onto the reindeer carts.  "There are so many, are you trying to fool us?" After the sleigh turned around, Bingwen casually opened the half-meter-long wooden box and picked up the top map.

    "It shouldn't happen, otherwise I want to get the remaining goods." Wu Zhonghao came over and couldn't help but take a breath when he saw the densely marked symbols on the map.  "What? Do you recognize him?" Bingwen knew that he was proficient in Russian and that his other identity was the National Strategic Intelligence Service, so he spread out the map.

    "I have seen the Soviet military maps sent back by Long Ya and other intelligence agents in Xishan (the seat of the Strategic Intelligence Service), and I have also seen what Kuibyshev told me. This thing is real! Look  Wu Zhonghao clicked on the map, and the color on his face gradually returned: "This is the casein glue and hydrocarbyl biphenyl factory in Dnepropetrovsk. These two things are the key to the production of aviation plywood! This is plug  Vastopol, these red circles should be the location of the fortresses. We have never seen these three before. This is Stalingrad, this is Ufa Look at this again! This is north of Moscow  Ivanovo, we have received news before that after Ivan Mir and Beria rebelled one after another, StalinThe original Politburo shelter was abandoned and a new one was built in the Ivanovo Mountains.  "

    "General! If this is true, the value is too great!" At the end of the sentence, even the usually steady Wu Zhonghao began to breathe heavily.  Bingwen also nodded repeatedly. Although most of the coordinates above had been mastered by the intelligence agency for a long time, underground evacuation command centers like Ivanovo were exposed for the first time, and their value was simply immeasurable.

    "It seems that Beria will not rest assured if Stalin is not dead." Looking at the map, Bingwen could understand Beria's intention of marking this refuge. He quickly put away the map and patted the guard in the cab: "Let's  The base is preparing the plane, and I want to return to Beijing with Commissioner Wu immediately."
