Warlords: Rise of the System

The air defense forces of Lu Tianhao and Commander Ding have already started fighting with real fire, and no one cares about their own safety anymore.

Whether it was light machine guns, heavy machine guns, or anti-aircraft machine guns, the soldiers aimed at the bandit planes in the sky and fired wildly.

A dense network of bullets blocked the sky above the entire defense zone.

The bandit bombers did not dare to lower their altitude to carry out precision bombing on the defensive positions below.

Although the bandit pilots had rich experience, they were still frightened by the dense net of bullets.

They flew to a height they thought was relatively safe and dropped bombs one after another.

In an instant, the entire battlefield was filled with flames, smoke, and continuous explosions.

Since the bandits' bombers dropped their bombs at a relatively high altitude, there was not much accuracy at all.

Most of the bombs fell in uninhabited areas or on top of sturdy air-raid shelters.

Only a very small number of bombs exploded around the air defense forces.

The soldiers under Lu Tianhao had keen senses and most of them managed to dodge. Only a very small number of soldiers failed to dodge in time and suffered casualties.

Commander Ding's air defense force suffered much higher casualties.

The fighter planes used by the bandits as cover came under special attention from the air defense forces because they dived down and strafed the positions.

After the bandits' more than 30 fighter jets swooped down, they caused a lot of casualties to the air defense forces.

But they also suffered heavy casualties. There were more than 30 fighter planes when they dived down, but when they took off again, only less than ten fighter planes were lucky enough to escape.

In one dive and strafing operation, the bandits lost more than 20 fighter planes.

The eight fighter planes that escaped never dared to come back to dive and strafe.

Neither the bandits' fighter planes nor their bombers dared to approach the defense area of ​​Lu Tianhao and Commander Ding.

The bandit aircraft group circled in the sky for several times and then slipped away obediently.

After seeing all this, the other warlord troops outside the South Gate were also shocked by the air defense forces of Lu Tianhao and Commander Ding.

They were all wondering which warlord's troops had so many anti-aircraft weapons.

The news of the air battle between Lu Tianhao and Commander Ding soon reached Jiang Guangshi.

Jiang Guangshi didn't have much impression of Commander Ding.

But Jiang Guangshi has a deep memory of Lu Tianhao.

Because among all the reinforcements, the troops led by Lu Tianhao had the smallest number of people.

It is precisely because of this that when tasks were assigned, he was assigned together with Commander Ding, because Lu Tianhao and Commander Ding sat at the same table, they should know each other.

Jiang Guangshi did not expect that the two troops he casually divided together actually had such strong air defense capabilities.

Jiang Guangshi said, "Do you know who these two troops belong to?"

The adjutant said, “We only know that Ding Youkui is a subordinate of Marshal Zhao Hongxing.

We don’t know whose subordinate Lu Tianhao is.”

Jiang Guangshi was a little confused, "How did he record it when he went to the banquet?"

The adjutant said, “The records say he formed his own army, how is that possible?

He is so young, how could he have the financial resources to form his own army?

I guess it's very likely that he is the son of a great warlord who wants to go out and gain some experience, so he said that."

The Secretary-General also spoke up, "Only this explanation can explain clearly where he got so many anti-aircraft weapons.

Our people discovered that the anti-aircraft weapons of Ding Youkui's division were not as many as those of Lu Tianhao's more than 1000 people.

This is very telling. There is definitely a powerful force behind Lu Tianhao.

This Ding Youkui may have benefited from Lu Tianhao's influence."

The adjutant said with some worry, “Marshal, Lu Tianhao has such a deep influence.

If we put him on the main battlefield outside, will it offend the forces behind him?"

Jiang Guangshi shook his head and said, "Now is a national crisis, and it is everyone's responsibility to resist foreign enemies.

Since Lu Tianhao has a powerful force behind him, he must be on the front line.

According to the information we have gathered, although his troop is small in number, its weapons and equipment are very sophisticated and it should be a well-trained elite force.

If the forces behind him don't want him to make any mistakes on the battlefield, they will definitely increase their investment in him.

Maybe with his presence on this southern front, the enemy will pay a heavy price and it will buy us more time."

The Secretary General nodded and said, "What the Marshal said makes sense, good steel should be used on the blade.

The presence of Lu Tianhao on the southern defense line is likely to greatly slow down the enemy's attack."

Jiang Guangshi continued, "Send out a small team of our elite troops to keep a close eye on Lu Tianhao's situation.

If the situation is not right, Lu Tianhao must be brought out alive.

As long as Lu Tianhao is still alive, we will have a way to deal with the forces behind him."

After receiving the order, Jiang Guangshi's adjutant began to arrange the matter.

On the other side, Lu Tianhao and Commander Ding were discussing the next battle plan.

"It seems that the bandits' planes won't come again for the time being." said Commander Ding.

Lu Tianhao shook his head, "I don't think so.

The bandits' planes suffered heavy losses this time. Given their character, do you think they will let it go?

I always feel that they are gathering more strength and want to retaliate against us.

It probably won’t be long before their third wave of bombers arrives.

It is estimated that the scale this time will be even larger.”

As soon as the words fell, everyone in the joint command center could hear the buzzing sound of airplanes coming from the distance.

Lu Tianhao couldn't help but said angrily, "You bunch of bastards, can't you wait until I finish speaking before you come?"

Lu Tianhao quickly ordered his troops, "Tell the other soldiers to hide in the air-raid shelters and make sure to take good care of the injured soldiers.

Tell the air defense soldiers to attack carefully and take good care of their own safety. Only by keeping their lives can they kill more bandits. "

The deputy company commander of the guard company, Yuan Yapeng, went down personally to convey Lu Tianhao's order.

Several of Commander Ding's messengers also went down to convey the orders.

Commander Ding said with some concern, "The last wave of bombing caused quite a few casualties among our soldiers.

This time, just by listening to the sound, we could tell that there were a lot of pirate planes coming, at least twice as many as last time.

I don’t know how many casualties we will suffer this time.”

Lu Tianhao also sighed, "Alas! It is inevitable that some soldiers will be sacrificed on the battlefield.

Only by defeating the invaders can we have a stable and peaceful life and avoid the bloodshed and sacrifice of soldiers.

For our children and grandchildren to live happily and peacefully, let us become pioneers."

The bandits' air strike is coming again. The soldiers are ready and prepared to do whatever it takes to severely damage the bandits' air force.
