    Qiu Guoping, who was standing next to him, unceremoniously pulled out a cigarette from Wei Xing's cigarette box, lit it with Wei Xing's fire, and said while smoking: "Our master is a man of God. He said that the Yellow River will freeze tonight."  , then it will definitely freeze. He also specifically asked us to wear more clothes during this expedition. "

    With that said, Qiu Guoping unbuttoned his cotton-padded jacket.  After listening to Xia Yang's words, he put on the cotton-padded jacket that was only worn in the middle of winter. At this time, he felt that his back was covered with sweat.

    The current temperature along the Yellow River is still around five or six degrees, and it is still more than ten degrees away from the freezing temperature of the Yellow River.  Unless there is a sudden cold wave tonight and the temperature drops by more than ten degrees, it is impossible to freeze the Yellow River.

    The sun has gradually set in the west at this time, leaving an afterimage on the broad surface of the Yellow River.  A few days ago, a rainfall in the upper reaches caused the water flow here to become larger than before.  The sound of the running river was like the running of all beasts.

    He Changxing also looked at the rushing water of the Yellow River and thought to himself that the water was flowing so happily, how could it freeze?

    But he is already used to Xia Yang's magical magic skills. Since the teacher has said so, let's wait. What if the temperature really cools down at night?

    With that said, he also walked to Wei Xing's side, took out the last cigarette in the cigarette box, smoked it without saying anything, put it into his mouth and said to Wei Xing: "I think the equipment of your second regiment is good, and it's pretty good."  A few field guns came out, where did they get them from?"

    Wei Xing smiled and said: "I bought it from the black market. Someone hid some cannons lost during the Central Plains War. Although they are a little worn out, they can still be used after repairing them."

    He Changxing smiled and said: "Don't let our commander know about this, otherwise your field artillery will be taken away by our commander. He is talking about the artillery battalion all day long.  .¡±

    Hearing this, Qiu Guoping immediately laughed and said: "That won't work. I have to respond well to our master. Commander Wei Xing Wei is hiding something private. If he has good things, he won't give them to the master."  Come on, hide your personal money here."

    The three people laughed as they spoke.

    "Come on, let's go back and have a meal. Let's wait until night to see if it will freeze. Otherwise, we have to find a way to swim across." He Changxing said, taking a strong drag on the cigarette in his mouth, and then  We walked towards the camp not far away.

    Wei Xing and Qiu Guoping glanced at each other and followed him.

    Night is slowly falling. In fact, when the sun sets, everyone has begun to feel that the temperature is constantly dropping.

    But at first, everyone thought that this was just because the temperature difference between day and night was relatively large in autumn, which caused this phenomenon.

    But at twelve o'clock in the evening, a soldier shouted: "Regiment, regiment, something has happened, something big has happened."

    When He Changxing heard the soldier's voice, he raised his voice and asked, "What's going on? Are the Japs coming?" As he spoke, he rubbed his palms to keep them warm.

    The soldier pointed in the direction of the Yellow River and said, "It's overit's over."

    Wei Xing next to him became impatient and said in Tianjin dialect: "What? What? Can you talk? Are you married? Are you married or frozen?"

    The panting soldier finally came to his senses and said in one breath: "Ice, it's frozen, the Yellow River is frozen. It's entering the freezing period ahead of schedule."

    Hearing this, He Changxing immediately said: "Really or not? Is it really frozen?" He was so excited that the cigarette in his mouth fell out.

    The soldier said: "You can't be wrong. I was walking on the ice just now."

    He Changxing, Wei Xing and Qiu Guoping glanced at each other, and then ran towards the Yellow River at the same time.

    When they arrived at the edge of the Yellow River, they found that the Yellow River, which was still flowing during the day, was indeed covered by ice.

    ¡°It¡¯s just that the ice in the middle of the river is only a thin layer at this time. They still need to wait for another hour or two for the center of the river to freeze solidly.

    At around two o'clock in the morning, several soldiers ran to the frozen river. After running back and forth, they ran to He Changxing and said: "Regiment leader, it's no problem. We're here."  There was a lot of fun running up there, and the ice surface was very solid.¡±

    Hearing this, He Changxing looked at Wei Xing and saw surprise in his eyes.

    Xia Yang told them before that the temperature would drop significantly tonight, and now it turned out that it was indeed the case.  This section of the Yellow River,?It has been directly frozen due to the low temperature.

    "Notify the troops to prepare for crossing the river. The vanguard troops will cross the river first and investigate the defense situation on the other side." He Changxing ordered.

    After receiving the order, the vanguard troops who had already received the order immediately began to step on the ice and began to run towards the other side of the river.

    After about half an hour, the people over there used the walkie-talkie to transmit the news that everything was safe and that the Japanese coastal defense troops were very few.

    After receiving the feedback from here, He Changxing and the others immediately began to lead the large troops towards the other side of the ice, stepping on the newly formed ice.

    After arriving on the other side of the Yellow River, they plunged into the mountains and forests, and then disappeared into the vast forest sea.

    Late that night, on a hillside in the Wutai Mountains area hundreds of kilometers away, the Japanese artillery was resting.

    The high ground they were on had a very good view and could provide sufficient artillery support for the nearby Japanese troops.

    Although the artillery support of the Japanese army is far from the level of Europe and the United States at this time, it still has a great advantage over the Chinese army, which has almost zero artillery support.

    The tasks of these artillery units, in addition to providing certain fire support to various combat units in peacetime, also have an incidental task, which is to clean up nearby villages.

    Because in their opinion, going from village to village to massacre was too much effort.  Therefore, bombarding these places with artillery can save a lot of energy.

    Even if the villagers inside cannot be killed, rushing them into the mountains will not provide the guerrillas with a place to rest and food, but it can still put a certain amount of pressure on the guerrillas hiding in the mountains.

    Hu San was wearing cotton clothes at this time, and the white air breathing out of his mouth disappeared in the night in the blink of an eye.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
