District 9

In the headquarters of the Wu mercenary group, Wu Tianyin immediately stood up and responded: "Notify the frontline troops and immediately enter a defensive state. Call Commander Xiang and ask the Self-Defense Forces to start working in the direction of Qiushan."

"Will they just push forward?" Anzi asked with some worry: "Currently, the Liberal Party's troops have not entered our territory. If they open fire first, will there be a problem? What if they just do what they did before? In that case, marching for the purpose of intimidation, then we...?!"

"Impossible," Wu Tianyin waved his hand directly: "This time it is definitely not a threat. When I came back, Meng Xi had already told me that if the Liberal Party's troops did not take action before the Shensha Corps was defeated, they would definitely attack the Shensha Corps. Take action after the corps is defeated."

"I understand." Anzi instantly understood what Wu Tianyin meant.

"Go and give the order!"

Wu Tianyin picked up his coat and dialed Meng Xi's number.

"Hello?"

"The Liberal Party has moved." Wu Tianyin said bluntly: "More than 60,000 people have all rushed forward."

"Commander Wu, remember not to advance rashly. You just need to stick to the defense zone. If the first battle fails, use a long and narrow defensive line to slow down the enemy's attack. In short, it depends on how long it can be delayed. How long will it take?" Meng Xi replied very seriously.

"I understand what you mean."

"Commander Wu, the success or failure of this battle does not lie in the ninth district, but in the Beifengkou." Meng Xi paused and said, "We will speed up the attack rhythm here."

"Okay, I'll do my best."

"that's all!"

After saying that, the two ended the call, and Wu Tianyin quickly left the headquarters.

…

Xinxiang Life Town.

Meng Xi sat at his desk and dialed Ruan Ming's phone number first: "Hello, Captain Ruan."

"As you command, Commander Meng."

"The Likou battlefield is just a tactical target. Our two brigades from Sichuan Province and Liu Weiren's division only need to cooperate with the Lin faction to block He Chong's troops and Feng Ji's troops in the mountains." Meng Xi spoke quickly. He said very quickly: "Don't let them return to defend Fengbei. Your combat mission will be completed."

"Combined with the Lin Department, our military strength is not much different from that of the other party. We have the capital to take the initiative to attack." Ruan Ming thought for a while and said: "General Lin Cheng's troops are also very tough and have a fierce fighting style. If we take the initiative It is possible to defeat some of the enemy forces by attacking.”

"If you go out to fight, our battle losses will be uncontrollable." Meng Xi said in a very serious tone: "Let me tell you tomorrow, I don't ask you to win at Lukou Port, but you must ensure that the main force of Sichuan Mansion The troops will not suffer a large number of casualties. Holding firm and preventing the opponent from returning to defense is your main task; and ensuring that the main force of the Sichuan government will not be consumed is your second task, do you understand?"

"Yes!" Ruan Ming did not ask any further questions. Hearing Meng Xi's serious tone, he immediately agreed.

"If there are special circumstances, you can contact me directly." Meng Xi politely replied: "I'll leave it to you at Lvkou Port."

"yes!"

The two ended the call.

At this moment, Meng Xi's state was obviously more nervous than when he was observing the battle situation before, because he had long expected that the troops from the Sixth District would attack at this time.

why?

Because if EU Region 1 really decides to abandon the civil war in Region 9 and not get involved, then there is no need to allow the Liberal Party's ally troops to continue to be stationed in the no-man's land of Xibe after the Shensha Corps was completely defeated.

What are they waiting for?

It was obvious that they were waiting for an opportunity to attack, and this was a very superficial motive.

In addition to this superficial motive, there is also a deeper political conspiracy.

The Shensha Corps is a die-hard ally of EU Region 1. It is also the military and political force that they have deployed in the three regions for many years and supported them the most.

If the Shensha Group is completely defeated, it will directly lead to the failure of many forces in the European Union to invest in the three major regions. And this result is obviously not what the EU forces want to see...

But why did they finally choose to stab their ally when the Shen Sha Corps was in its most difficult time? Just watch them being wiped out and defeated without any intention of sending troops to help?

It's simple, because the EU has new targets and allies for support.

It’s the three series of He Fenglu!

As soon as Shen Wanzhou's murder of Lao He was exposed, it aroused the anger of the warlords in the Ninth District. Their defeat was not difficult to foresee. Therefore, even if the EU military and political forces send troops to help, they may not be able to help the Shensha Corps recover.

But at that time, the Shensha Corps was the last extremely important chess piece deployed by the EU military and political forces in the three regions. They knew that they might fail, but they wanted to support them. Otherwise, the rapid unification of the nine districts will definitely be a foregone conclusion.

At this time, the three factions of He and Fenglu took the initiative to contact the EU military and political forces and were willing to cooperate.

Why do you do this?

Because the three families of He and Fenglu could not afford to lose. If Shen Wanzhou could not be killed with one blow, they would be doomed. Therefore, in order to ensure that the EU Zone 1 is not allowed to enter and support the Shensha Corps, they must obtain the support of the EU military and political forces.

This is why, when Shen Wanzhou first contacted the European Union, the other party was willing to send troops to assist. However, when the war situation had just been reversed, the European Union went against its promise and stood still. Because at that time, they had already finished talking with the three families of He and Fenglu.

Many people had expected these under-the-table transactions and layouts, which is why Meng Xi persuaded Qin Yu several times to give up the Zhou clan and take the initiative to return to Sichuan for development.

Because outside the North Wind Pass, there was an evil tiger lying on its stomach that had not moved.

Inside the office.

After Meng Xi made the first call, he immediately contacted Commander Zhou and told him personally: "Commander, there will be a war over at Beifengkou within a few hours at the latest. We don't have much time. We must Take Fengbei first."

"I know." Commander Zhou immediately replied: "Songjiang must also hurry up."

"I'll keep an eye on this."

…

Fengbei Nei.

Liu Zheng is already preparing to open the north gate of Fengbei and let the Lu clan enter, provided that they can safely evacuate from the war zone.

In the city, inside the Ninth District Government Affairs Building.

President Xiang sat by the window and turned to look at the scenery outside. After hesitating for a long time, he finally took out his phone and dialed Xiang Zehao's number.

"Hello?" Xiang Zehao was mobilizing troops in the no-man's land of Xibo, surrounded by the sound of wind.

When the call was connected, Director Xiang suddenly found that he had nothing to say, and he sat in silence in his original position with some restraint.

"Hey, can you hear me?" Xiang Zehao didn't know his father's new number, so he didn't know who was calling.

"...You can hear it." Mr. Xiang lowered his head and replied.

"Dad?!" Xiang Zehao replied in a daze.
