District 9

At around eight o'clock in the evening, the Lu troops began to advance toward the north of Fengbei, and a regiment of artillery took the lead in opening fire.

The Sha Corps responded quickly. Sha Zhongxing ordered Sha Zhongwei's division to carry out point defense along the northern defense zone of Fengbei. He did not need to attack, but was only responsible for holding on. To ensure that the position was not lost, the mission was completed.

after an hour.

The remaining coalition forces were dispatched in three groups. The main force of the Zhou Dynasty in the World War II zone was sent from Changjinan to outflank Fengbei and Nanshun. The total force was about 30,000. The force consisted of two divisions from Zheng Kaijun and one division from Liu Weiren.

The Second Army Group is the He Clan's Third Group Army led by He Chong and Xue Huaili, with a total strength of 30,000. They march from the direction of Sankanzi, Changji, preparing to cross the ridge line and enter the Yamatiao area, on the inside south of Fengbei. position and engage in firefights with the enemy.

The Third Army Corps is the First Army of the Feng Clan led by Feng Ji and Feng Lei. It has a total strength of 20,000 and consists of one division and one brigade. Their combat area is in the center of Zhou He's second department troops. Their combat mission is to divide the battlefield, block enemy reinforcements, and ensure that the He department is not harassed by enemy support troops when approaching Yamatiao.

The army began to advance. The Third Route Corps, with a total strength of more than 80,000, dispatched eight and a half divisions, dozens of infantry combat groups, and included artillery units, helicopter combat units, armored combat units, Rocket Force, Air Force, etc. The modernized corps is extremely powerful, with an march route stretching for hundreds of kilometers.

…

Xinxiang Living Village.

In the temporary combat command room of the Northeast Theater of Sichuan Province, Qin Yu put on a general's woolen coat, turned to look at Xiao Sang and said: "Send the order, all commanders above the regiment level who have arrived in Xinxiang will get on the helicopter and follow me to the forward battlefield to watch the battle. .”

"Teacher, it's over when we go, what else are you going to do?" You have barely said it clearly, and you don't know how to command, so what are you going to do?

"The division commander also needs to learn." Qin Yu replied with a faint smile: "They say that Shensha's European regiment is not weak in combat power. I have to see with my own eyes whether they can do it."

Although the Sichuan government has had several small-scale battles with Shen Sha's clique, such as when Daya defeated Sha Xuan's regiment, that kind of conflict is completely different from the current regiment battle. The intensity of the conflict and the intensity of the battlefield are not of the same magnitude, so Qin Yu wanted to go to the front line to see in person what level the other party was.

Unable to defeat Qin Yu after many battles, he could only ask the security forces to immediately arrange a viewing area.

Ten minutes later, all the regiment-level cadres who had first arrived near Xinxiang in the Sichuan Northeast Theater were called over. Together with Qin Yu, Li Zhan, Daya and others, they took a helicopter and flew to the front line.

Qi Lin, Xun Chengwei, Xiaobai and others had defense missions in the southwest region, so after serving as military advisers, they immediately took a plane and returned to the Old Triangle area.

…

Fengbei, the combat command room of the General Administration of Military Affairs.

Shen Wanzhou, Sha Zhongxing and other generals were standing in front of a wall-sized LCD screen, watching the real-time dynamic combat map.

On the LCD screen, Sha Zhongxing looked at the position of his own troops and the enemy's advance route that was constantly fed back from the front battlefield, and suddenly asked: "Commander Shen, have you found a problem?"

"What?" Shen Wanzhou asked proactively.

Veteran general Sha Zhongxing picked up the infrared pen, pointed at his own defense area and said: "The current situation between the enemy and ourselves is very obvious. The enemy's coalition forces' Lu Corps attacked Fengbei North Pass, and Feng, He and Zhou attacked Fengbei South Pass. On the surface, their attack areas are clearly distributed. There are four major areas in total, and each unit advances in a very orderly manner. But in my opinion, their command center should be very scattered, and the advancement speed of each unit is not consistent. , the deployment of the troops is also not synchronized, it does not look like a command headquarters is issuing unified orders."

"Yes." Shen Wanzhou's chief of staff immediately agreed: "Look, Zheng Kaijun and the troops of Liu Weiren's division all took the outer line, but they did not respond to the Feng faction in the center. The distance between the two sides was too far. The speed is also different. The two regiments of Liu Weiren's division have already emerged, but Feng Ji's troops have just come out of Changji. Since the coalition forces are advancing collectively, why is there such a big time difference?"

"Because they don't have a unified command system. They just assigned their respective attack areas and prepared to fight separately." Sha Zhongxing said to the point: "They are all tied together, each has his own plan, and no one obeys the other. We have More than 70,000 troops are stationed on the south side of Fengbei, and none of them wants to run into us first. Otherwise, if they are exhausted too much, their voice in the coalition will be reduced."

The Shensha Department did not give anything for nothing. Several veterans gathered together and looked at the enemy activity areas fed back from the forward positions. They quickly deduced that there was no unified command system in the coalition forces. In other words, even if there were, then this command department would not be able to command various troops with orders and prohibitions, because they all have their own ideas and considerations.

After thinking about it for a long time, Shen Wanzhou immediately shouted: "Signal Corps, pick me up from the First Group Army, combat headquarters."

"yes!"

After the signal corps responded, they immediately contacted the Shen First Group Army stationed in the Yamatiao area.

Soon, the commander of the First Army of the Shen Department answered the call personally: "Hello, I'm Bai Hongbo."

Shen Wanzhou took the microphone and said concisely: "Did you see anything on the frontier battlefield?"

"Commander, what are you asking about?" Bai Hongbo asked.

"About the unified command of the other party."

"...It's obvious that the other side does not have a unified command unit, and the three armies are advancing very scatteredly." Bai Hongbo replied without hesitation: "The combat method should be for each faction to command its own faction."

"Do you have any ideas?" Shen Wanzhou asked.

"It will take a certain amount of time for so many troops to pounce on each other, get into position, build a defense zone, and deploy after entering the battlefield." Bai Hongbo thought about it and said, "We can try to leave the defense zone and take the initiative to attack."

The other party's thoughts coincided with Shen Wanzhou's. He paused and cursed: "Damn it, stop being passive defensive. Isn't the coalition army the He system? Just fuck him, and I'll let the second army cooperate. you."

"yes!"

…

Half an hour later, Shen's first group army, under the command of Bai Hongbo, dispatched three regiments of armored troops and suddenly advanced towards the outer perimeter of the King of Hell, crashing directly into He's troops.

In the command position, after receiving the news, He Chong immediately ordered the forward advancing troops to stop in place. At the same time, the two artillery regiments quickly established attack positions and prepared to engage the enemy.

Outside Sankanzi, Qin Yu got off the helicopter and said to the officers of the He Department: "It's too far here. We can't see anything. Please take us a little further."

"Yes!" the officer responded, and with dozens of guards, he drove the people from Sichuan Mansion directly to the mountain range closest to Fengbei in Sankanzi.

…

District Eight.

Gu Tai'an sat in the office and coughed violently for more than ten seconds before asking with a red face: "Is the war starting?"

"Yes, Fengbei Beiguan has opened fire."

"...!" Gu Taian wiped the corners of his mouth with a tissue, raised his head and said, "Call the staff and ask them to pay close attention to the battlefield in District 9."

"yes!"

"Oh, I'm still in a hurry." Gu Tai'an sighed with a slight frown.
