It was not until mid-January that Qin Zhiyuan was shocked to discover that it was already 1920.
In Penglai Island, the temperature is really as warm as spring all year round. There is no obvious separation between the four seasons, so Qin Zhiyuan is not sensitive to the transition of seasons.
Just like now, although the lunar calendar is approaching the Great Cold, the weather with a minimum of 22 degrees Celsius and a maximum of 31 degrees Celsius every day is indeed not cold at all.
However, this feeling only exists in Penglai Island. If you leave Penglai Island and go north, across Yingzhou, Ryukyu, Goryeo and all the way to Vladivostok, you will find a world frozen by ice and snow.
This damn weather is really too cold. Now I can understand why our ancestors didn’t want this damn place. If you stay here for a long time, your eyes will freeze into ice pimples. Former scout Liu Jialan said
He walked into the house. As soon as he entered the house, he hurriedly started to shake off the ice residue on his body. Just after leaving for a short time, Liu Jialan's eyelashes were already covered with frost flowers.
You have the guts, you dare to say such treacherous things, I will give you ten minutes to say enough during the meeting in the evening. Liu Bin huddled on the kang and played cards with Yuan Shengji, without even raising his eyes.
Whether it's cold or not is really relative.
The house Yuan Shengji and the others stayed in had an earthen kang, and there were earth dragons on the floor. Heat could pass through the cracks in the walls. The media transported from Benxi via the Far East Railway generated a lot of heat. Yuan Shengji and the others burned the media.
He was never stingy when he came, so it was indeed more than 30 degrees below zero outside the house, but inside the room, Yuan Shengji was only wearing a shirt, but it wasn't cold at all.
This is much better than the collective heating of the 21st century. Staying in this kind of house, you will not feel the raging temperature at all.
In fact, Liu Jialan didn't feel that cold even when she first entered the house. Liu Jialan was wearing a mink hat, a sheepskin jacket and sheepskin trousers. The vest inside the sheepskin jacket was made of mink, and the trouser legs of the sheepskin trousers and even the boots on her feet were
Together, these layers of protection can't be said to be too cold.
You two didn't know if you didn't come out of the house. I just came out of the prisoner-of-war camp where the little Japanese and the old Maozi were. It was like an ice cellar. It was so cold that I couldn't stand. There were several old Maozi and the little ones.
The Japs must have been stunned by the cold. They were bathing in the snow with their buttocks naked in the ice and snow. They really looked like savages. Liu Jialan muttered as he took off his clothes.
Don’t be embarrassed if you don’t understand. It’s called willpower training. Do you understand that this is how people’s disregard for death and bushido spirit are trained? Our current recruit camp also practices the same thing. Do you understand this is called science? Liu Bin resisted for less than 3 minutes.
, he simply raised his hands and admitted defeat.
Liu Bin and Yuan Shengji played a kind of leaf tiles that is very popular among Chinese people. The gameplay is similar to that of mahjong. This is one of the rare indoor entertainment activities that Yuan Shengji and his friends have here.
In fact, things like Pai Gow Mahjong are not popular in Northern Xinjiang, or in other words, they are not popular in Lanfang as a whole.
Sports are more popular in Lanfang. Even in the icy and snowy Northern Xinjiang, as long as there are dozens or twenty people, they can start a rugby match or have a passionate football match in minutes.
Good choice.
Even if the outdoor conditions are not very good, it is good to play squash and billiards in an indoor environment. If you really can’t find any sports, you can still have a few people put on sleds and go skiing. In fact, there are more sports that you can engage in than Lan
There are much more in other places.
The reason why Liu Bin and Yuan Shengji stayed in the house playing cards was because Liu Bin's feet were sprained a few days ago and Liu Bin couldn't do outdoor activities, so they stayed in the house playing cards.
Yuan Shengji, who is sure you have won money in the ice cellar, does not have much joy on his face.
There is indeed a prisoner-of-war camp in Vladivostok, which held Russians captured during the Russian Civil War and Japanese captured during the war against Japan.
The task of these prisoners of war is to build a new Vladivostok. In the past year, these people worked for a year but did not complete the task. When spring comes, they will continue until a complete Vladivostok is built. They
will be released.
Of course, in this process, it is inevitable that there will be attrition. The total number of this group of people was originally about 350,000, of which about 230,000 were Japanese. Now, the total number of this group of people has been less than 300,000.
Among them, there are less than 190,000 Japanese.
Because Vladivostok has not yet been fully built, Northern Xinjiang still values these laborers relatively highly, so Yuan Shengji doesn't believe it now when he hears the prisoner of war camp being described as an ice cellar.
It's almost the same. Anyway, these people are eating and sleeping now, and there is no use keeping them. Liu Jialan's words didn't contain much sympathy.
No, we have to take a look. This is all our property. If there is a large-scale attrition, why don't we go to work by ourselves? Yuan Shengji didn't want to muddle through, so he got up and started to get dressed.
Bah, I, the foul-mouthed Liu Jialan, wailed and started to wear it with Yuan Shengji.
Let me tell you what happened. Just after leaving the house, Yuan Shengji was not busy patrolling the camp. He first pulled Liu Jialan aside to start a small stove.
Yuan Shengji and the others lived not far from the prisoner of war camp, about five or six kilometers away.
In fact, in the current prisoner-of-war camp, except for a security brigade composed of Koreans, there are not many additional troops for defense.
In the northern Xinjiang region, there is actually no need to defend. The endless wasteland and General Dong, who does not recognize his relatives, are the best guards. If there is not enough fuel and food, even if those old men and little devils want to run away, they will not be able to run far.
Far.
Hi, I just had nothing to do. I followed Section Chief Chen from the Logistics Department to the prisoner-of-war camp. According to Section Chief Chen, these Korean gangsters are not good people. The old Maozi and the little Japs have been very resentful recently.
These Korean gangsters seem to be stealing supplies and reselling them privately. Not only did the old man and the little devil not expose it, but there are people who are colluding with these Korean gangsters. Chen Ke and the others seem to be collecting evidence. Liu Jialan really doesn't want to take care of it. This person has just arrived.
Outdoors, when I opened my mouth, I felt like the cold air was blowing over me like a steel knife, and I couldn't open my mouth at all.
Go drive, let's go for a spin. Yuan Shengji wants to see is to believe.
I said, brother, let’s not drive, can we go skiing? Liu Jialan wanted to exercise more to fight the cold.
Okay, I'll drive the car in a while, and then I'll drag you. Yuan Shengxi didn't waste any time, turned around and walked to the garage.
Compared with half a year ago, the current situation is indeed much better. At least the gap in cars is not that big, and it is limited to the conditions in northern Xinjiang. Most of the cars in northern Xinjiang are equipped with diesel engines. Compared with
Cars driven by gasoline are much more durable, and when the engine fails to heat up, it can be grilled directly on the fire.
I'm going, I'm going, I'm going, isn't that enough? Liu Jialan didn't dare to let Yuan Shengji do the errands, so she still had to be more attentive when she seized the opportunity.
The cars equipped in Northern Xinjiang are different from Bulldogs. The main difference is the body steel plate.
The Bulldog series is distinguished by its lightness, convenience, and strong off-road capabilities, and its requirements in other aspects are not too high.
Northern Xinjiang is equipped with the Polar Bear series. The cars in this series are big, thick and black. They not only require a certain degree of body sealing, but also must be durable and durable. They must be overloaded three to five times and still be able to walk like flying.
Liu Jialan and Yuan Shengji used a polar bear that had just been delivered to Northern Xinjiang.
In fact, this kind of vehicle has not been installed in the troops, but the headquarters currently has a small amount of equipment. It may spread to the grassroots in the future, but it is still far away from the future.
So when Yuan Shengji's polar bear arrived at the gate of the prisoner of war camp, it was let in without almost any interrogation.
Yuan Shengji still glanced at the guard room, but the Korean soldier responsible for guarding the guard room not only had no intention of getting up to check, but also showed no interest in perfunctory. He just waved his hand lazily to indicate that he was allowed to go.
This kind of Korean people are just messing around. Yuan Xingji silently made a final judgment on the Korean people in his heart.
They are just messing around. When you see them facing us, they behave like the third grandson. In fact, as long as they turn their backs, these Korean gangsters will immediately change their faces in a ferocious manner. The saying of the Korean gangsters is absolutely correct.
.Liu Jialan was not very angry when she mentioned the Korean people.
Don't stop in a hurry, just wander around. Yuan Shengji didn't want to give the administrators in this prisoner of war camp a chance to get close to him. Just after entering the prisoner of war camp, Yuan Shengji noticed that there were already four or five administrators and guards poking their heads, and said
Maybe he is looking for opportunities.
Okay, just take a look. Liu Jialan's driving skills are pretty good, and she started spinning around in the prisoner-of-war camp casually.
In fact, this prisoner-of-war camp is basically equipped with all kinds of facilities. The prisoner-of-war camp also covers a large area. It seems to be a large area nearby, and it can probably house 50,000 to 60,000 people.
There are not many such prison camps in the entire northern Xinjiang, so the vitality of receiving special allowances from the National Security Bureau is very sensitive.
It was actually noon now, and no one could be seen in the entire prisoner-of-war camp. There were only a dozen Koreans playing ball on the school field in the distance. This was in sharp contrast to the excitement when Yuan Shengji and the others were in charge of this place a few months ago.
Liu Jialan used to work here, so he drove around three times and twice before going behind the big canteen.
If you want to investigate economic issues, the canteen is the best place to start. After all, it can reflect the treatment situation most intuitively.
In fact, the people in this prisoner-of-war camp are basically Russians. This can be seen from the meals prepared in the canteen. Yuan Shengji and Liu Jialan took a quick look and saw that they were filled with potatoes as far as the eye could see.
Yes, it’s potatoes, which is Russia’s national dish.
