Warlords: Rise of the System

Having recruited so many soldiers, Lu Tianhao was in a good mood.

He was still considering whether to form a special forces unit composed of top soldiers to carry out decapitation operations against bandits.

Just then, Gousheng came running over in a panic.

"Captain, something is wrong. Our scouts have detected that the pirate fleet is attacking from the eastern inland river, and the landing troops have already landed.

The coastal defense forces in the east and the outer troops have retreated into the inner city and are suffering from fierce attacks from the bandits.

It is estimated that East City will be captured by bandits soon.

Once the bandits break into the inner city, our outer defense will be meaningless.

Captain, we must be mentally prepared to retreat at any time."

As soon as he finished speaking, he didn't wait for Lu Tianhao to react.

Jiao Yajun and Ding Xuguang also came with Commander Xu.

The three of them also heard what Gousheng said.

Commander Xu said to Lu Tianhao, "Captain Lu, I came here this time to thank you sincerely.

Then I wanted to beg Captain Lu to send a troop to support me.

It seems that it is no longer necessary now. I guess all our troops will have to retreat."

A signalman came over and said, "Captain, Marshal Jiang sent us a message."

Lu Tianhao took it, looked at it quickly, and said, "Marshal Jiang hopes that all our troops can hold on for another three days to buy time for the retreating civilians."

After hearing this, Commander Xu gave a bitter smile and said nothing more. He immediately said goodbye to Lu Tianhao and hurried back to his garrison.

The retreat of hundreds of thousands of troops, if not well planned, would turn into a major defeat.

Especially large troops retreating during the day are very likely to be bombed by bandit planes.

If things go wrong, there will likely be huge casualties.

Lu Tianhao originally planned to train these recruited soldiers in the evening.

Judging from the current situation, tonight may not be peaceful.

After the bandits here learn that the city east of Kyoto Prefecture has been breached, they will definitely cooperate and intensify their attack.

Perhaps the bandits are mobilizing their troops now and will not wait until nightfall, so they may launch another attack.

Now that time is running out, Lu Tianhao can no longer care about shocking the world.

He found a secret place, released all the training pods, and exchanged two hundred more, which deducted twenty thousand points in one go.

With these 300 training cabins, 300 soldiers can be trained at one time.

And it only takes ten minutes to train 300 elite soldiers.

It only takes more than two hours to train more than 3000 soldiers into elite soldiers.

Lu Tianhao asked the three battalion commanders, Jin Zhichao, Du Wenquan and Sun Kai, to arrange the soldiers for training in batches.

Lu Tianhao asked the three of them to select 100 smart soldiers.

Lu Tianhao decided to train all 100 soldiers into top soldiers and then form a special forces unit.

This troop will be equipped with the most advanced weapons currently available and will serve as the ace team in our hands.

At that time, a decapitation operation will be carried out against the hostile forces.

Time passed by minute by minute, and finally more than two hours had passed. All the soldiers had been trained and became elite soldiers.

Lu Tianhao trained another 200 soldiers and selected 100 of them to form a special forces unit.

The remaining soldiers will serve as officers in the army.

This time, the training of soldiers, as well as the exchange of training cabins and advanced weapons and equipment needed by the special forces, cost a total of more than 12 points.

The points of more than 19 were suddenly reduced to just over .

Lu Tianhao ordered the soldiers to dig deep trenches and reinforce the air-raid shelters in preparation for the fierce attack from the bandits.

As expected, the bandits did not wait until dark and launched another fierce attack.

This time the attack was extremely fierce.

The pirates dispatched a large number of carrier-based aircraft, and first of all, they carried out a comprehensive bombing of the defensive positions.

Then there was a full-scale bombardment of the positions by artillery, wave after wave, which directly blew the defensive positions beyond recognition and collapsed many air-raid shelters.

Despite the bombardment and emergency rescue, many soldiers were still killed or injured.

After the bombing by planes and artillery, the bandits' armored forces took the lead and rushed towards the position.

Because of sufficient preparation, there were no casualties in the position that Lu Tianhao was holding.

The positions defended by other troops suffered many casualties due to the repeated bombings from planes and artillery.

When the bandits' ground forces attacked, these troops still put up a strong resistance.

The battle was extremely fierce and lasted until dark, and the fighting between the two sides did not stop.

The team led by Lu Tianhao had undergone training and all of them had become elite soldiers. Coupled with their excellent weapons and equipment, they were able to directly repel the bandits' attack.

The bandits only dared to confront Lu Tianhao's team at a distance of several hundred meters.

For Lu Tianhao's team, holding out for three days is no problem at all.

However, the defensive position held by Lu Tianhao only occupied a small part of the outer position.

Lu Tianhao was very worried that the troops of other warlords might not be able to hold on.

What Lu Tianhao didn't expect was that Jiang Guangshi's troops were the first to have problems.

Under the intense attack of the bandits, Jiang Guangshi's defensive troops on the east side were ultimately unable to withstand the fierce attack of the bandits and were broken into the city.

The situation suddenly became critical, and the generals under Jiang Guangshi directly ordered Jiang Guangshi and the civilian staff to retreat first.

Although Jiang Guangshi insisted again and again, he was forcibly taken away by the guards.

Shortly after the personnel of the Marshal's Mansion withdrew, several key generals discussed it and decided to leave behind some rearguard troops and lead the army to retreat.

As for the outer defense forces on both sides, several key generals did not send telex notices to retreat, but instead sent troops to convey the message.

Most of the people in the city have already evacuated Kyoto Prefecture, and only a small number of them dragged their feet and only now followed the main force in an emergency retreat.

When the news reached various troops, Jiang Guangshi's large army in the city had already withdrawn from Kyoto Prefecture and was on the way to Nishikawa Prefecture.

The outer defense forces of the various warlords were deflated when they learned that the main force in the city had withdrawn and the east side had been lost.

The generals of these warlord troops left behind their remaining troops and made an emergency retreat.

Even if all these troops were deployed, they still could not stop the bandits' attack. Only a small number of troops were left behind. How could they withstand the bandits' fierce attack?

Many of the remaining troops were wiped out, the positions were quickly breached, and the retreat of these warlord troops turned into a major rout.

The entire battlefield became chaotic.
