Warlords: Rise of the System

After a long time, the people from Jinggang Village 1 finally spoke up and said, "As long as this unit dares to enter our ambush circle, we will fight.

Immediately send out a reconnaissance team to keep a close eye on the army that has taken a detour.

Although the weapons and equipment of that army were very poor, it had more than 10,000 people, which was a fully-staffed division of the Tianlong warlord.

Once this division turns back to rescue, our ambush will be difficult to carry out."

"Yes!" The adjutant saluted and turned to leave.

The people of Jinggang Village walked to the map and studied the enemy's route.

Several captains also gathered around and started to study the battle plan together.

Just then, a signalman came in and said, "Colonel, the people we sent out to look for Ikeda's regiment have sent back the news."

Jinggang Village 1 had a bad feeling in their hearts, "Tell me, what information did they find out?"

The signalman said in a sad tone, "Ikeda's regiment was ambushed and all of them were destroyed."

Jinggang Yicun exclaimed, "Impossible, this is absolutely impossible. Tianlong Country does not have such a powerful army that can destroy the Ikeda Brigade."

The signalman continued, "This is the news sent back by the scouts. They are still investigating the specific situation. There may be more news coming back in a while."

The adjutant also didn't believe it. "The message must be wrong. How could it be possible that the Ikeda regiment was completely destroyed without any message being sent out?

Just imagine, with the armies of the warlords of the Tianlong Kingdom, they simply cannot do this.

Unless it was the Ikeda Regiment, which was besieged by a large number of troops and had fierce firepower, it would have killed the Ikeda Regiment in a short period of time.

Otherwise, why didn't the Ikeda Corps even send a farewell letter?

If the Tianlong Kingdom warlords' army had such powerful firepower, could we occupy so much of their territory? "

Everyone in the temporary operations department didn't believe the news was true.

Just when everyone was skeptical, another communications soldier walked in.

"Report to the colonel, our scouts have sent back news again."

Everyone's heart skipped a beat; it seemed that the previous news was very likely to be true.

Jinggang Village 1 was a little unconfident. "Tell me, what did you find out specifically?"

The signalman said, "Our scouts carefully investigated the place where the Ikeda Alliance was ambushed.

They were ambushed on the battlefield and bombarded by a large amount of artillery fire. It can be said that the entire battlefield was bombarded back and forth by artillery shells several times.

The entire battlefield was covered with loose soil more than half a meter deep, and was littered with corpses and body parts of Ikeda's soldiers.

The loose soil was also filled with the corpses of Ikeda's soldiers. If you grabbed a handful of soil, you would find quite a few shrapnel in it.

According to the scouts' estimates, the ambush battlefield was bombarded by at least tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of artillery shells.

Ikeda's company was hit hard at the first moment, and only a few people survived.

After the scouts carefully inspected the battlefield, they found that the surviving soldiers of the Ikeda Regiment had been subjected to fierce enemy gunfire, and many of their bodies were riddled with bullets.

This shows that the Ikeda Corps was directly wiped out by the enemy's powerful firepower in a short period of time, and there was no time to pass on the news at all."

Everyone couldn't help but gasp. The Ikeda Regiment had only about 3000 people in total, and they were bombarded by tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of artillery shells.

On average, there are several or dozens of shells on each person's head.

Under such intensive artillery bombardment, those who could survive to the end were blessed by God.

Unfortunately, these living people still could not escape the scythe of death.

The people of Jinggang Village listened to the report with gloomy faces, their hearts filled with shock and confusion.

He couldn't imagine what kind of enemy could possess such powerful firepower to instantly wipe out an entire regiment of their Haisang country.

“Immediately investigate whether there are any signs of other forces active in the vicinity.

At the same time, send more people to search for survivors. I want to find out the truth!"

The adjutant took the order and left, and the temporary operations department fell into silence again.

A captain said, "Could it be that the Ikeda Regiment was wiped out by the elite force we were going to ambush?

According to information gathered by our scouts, this unit passed by the spot where the Ikeda Regiment was ambushed yesterday."

Everyone couldn't help but look at the captain. What he said was very likely.

However, this army consisted of only more than 1000 people, and according to reconnaissance information, they did not carry any artillery.

If you want to fire tens of thousands of artillery shells in a short period of time, based on the firing speed of mortars, you will need at least several hundred mortars.

Not to mention the hundreds of mortars, there are tens of thousands of artillery shells alone, which is simply impossible for a team of more than 1000 people to carry.

The captain who spoke just now also realized this, and he said with some uncertainty.

"Could this be the enemy's vanguard? There are still a large number of troops following behind, but our scouts have not detected them."

The Jinggang Village No. 1 issued an order, "Immediately send more scouts to find out if there is a large force following this team.

If there is a situation, it will not be a question of how we can ambush this troop, but how we can retreat quickly.

The Ikeda Corps was able to be wiped out silently by the enemy. Do you think our corps can withstand them?

All scouts must obtain specific information before tomorrow morning.

Only after we get accurate information can we decide whether to ambush this elite force of the Tianlong Nation?"

The adjutant went down again to make arrangements.

The people of Jinggang Village prayed secretly in their hearts, hoping that things would not be as they had guessed.

No one left, but sat in the temporary operations department, nervously waiting for news.

Time passed by minute by minute, and after a few hours, new information finally came.

The scouts reported that they found no signs of other forces' activities in the surrounding area, nor any signs of large-scale troops following.

The people of Jinggang Village breathed a sigh of relief, but the mystery still shrouded them.

Who possesses such powerful firepower? Is it the secret weapon hidden by the Tianlong Kingdom?

He and a group of officers were still waiting, waiting for more news.

By dawn, all the scouts had brought back good news.

Within dozens of miles around this army, no other troops were found except the army that took a detour.

Jinggang Yicun said coldly, “No matter whether it was this army that destroyed the Ikeda Regiment.

We will never allow a well-equipped force to support Kyoto Prefecture.

Have the soldiers hide well, we will start with this unit today."
