Warlords: Rise of the System

Chapter 304: Vulnerable to a single blow

In order to completely surround the female force of the National Salvation Army, the Ma family army carefully planned and deployed before the action.

Among them, the troops responsible for advancing from the other three directions deliberately slowed down their marching speed in order to paralyze the opponents and make them mistakenly believe that the encirclement of the Ma family army had not yet been formed.

However, unlike these troops, the Ma family army that was preparing to go around the rear of the women's troops advanced rapidly like an arrow from a bow.

Because they knew very well that only by quickly seizing the retreat of the women's troops could they completely block their retreat and thus achieve the goal of encirclement and suppression.

The Ma family army was delighted and thought their plan was flawless.

But what they did not expect was that the National Salvation Army had already seen through everything and took decisive countermeasures - sending an elite airborne brigade to reinforce.

This airborne brigade was agile and well-trained, and successfully landed at the designated location in a very short time.

Moreover, the armored regiment in the airborne brigade took the lead and arrived at an excellent ambush position in advance, lying in wait, patiently waiting for the Ma family army to fall into the trap.

In this way, the armored regiment waited at the ambush site for several hours.

The long wait did not dampen the soldiers' fighting spirit. On the contrary, everyone was fully focused, staring at the road ahead and not missing any movement.

Finally, under the expectant gaze of everyone, the Ma family army's division slowly appeared in sight.

They were arrogant and defenseless, unaware of the impending disaster.

When the vanguard of the Ma family army stepped into the ambush circle, the commander of the armored regiment gave an order and all weapons opened fire instantly.

Amid the deafening roar of gunfire, the armored regiment's light and heavy machine guns spewed out deadly tongues of fire, like fire dragons flying in the air.

The majestic tanks continued to roar, and shells rained down on the warlord's troops.

In an instant, flames shot up into the sky, smoke filled the air, and the entire battlefield fell into chaos and blood.

The warlord's soldiers were terrified and fled in all directions, but they could not avoid the overwhelming attack.

Under such fierce fire suppression, after just a short while, the warlord's troops suffered heavy casualties, with more than half of the soldiers falling in a pool of blood.

However, some warlord soldiers still had hope and fled in all directions desperately in an attempt to find a chance of survival.

But unfortunately, those well-equipped and fast-moving tanks and armored vehicles had already locked onto their tracks.

These steel behemoths relentlessly pursued the fleeing enemies, leaving only devastation in their wake.

Faced with the relentless pursuit of tanks and armored vehicles, the fleeing warlord soldiers found themselves with nowhere to hide.

Some were killed on the spot by the merciless artillery fire, their bodies blown to pieces.

Some knelt on the ground in despair, raising their hands high to show their willingness to surrender.

Just like that, in this fierce battle, the huge warlord army which originally had more than 10,000 people was defeated.

In just less than two hours, all but those who chose to surrender were completely wiped out.

Countless corpses were lying on the battlefield, and blood dyed the ground red, as if telling the cruelty and ruthlessness of war.

After a fierce battle, the armored regiment quickly and methodically carried out a simple cleanup of the smoke-filled battlefield.

They seized the weapons and equipment left behind by the enemy, and gathered the dejected and miserable prisoners together and put them under strict guard.

Afterwards, this majestic armored team escorted a group of prisoners who had lost their fighting spirit and set out on their return journey in a mighty manner, advancing towards the temporary command center.

When sisters Lu Yunjiao, Lu Yunfeng and Zhang Po received the exciting news that the armored regiment had returned triumphantly.

The three of them, whose originally tense faces instantly relaxed like blooming spring flowers, and the corners of their mouths couldn't help but rise, revealing ecstatic smiles.

At this moment, the joy was beyond words, as if even the air around was infected by this joy.

However, at the same time, the enemy's troops from the other three directions had only just completed the construction of the encirclement.

Surprisingly, the enemy and our side have not even really clashed, and there has been no substantial contact between them.

Who could have expected that the brave and fearless armored regiment would be able to annihilate the enemy forces in the rear so quickly and efficiently.

With the victorious return of the armored regiment, it now had enough strength to take the initiative and deal a heavy blow to the enemies in the other three directions.

Therefore, in the temporary meeting room, the atmosphere was solemn yet warm.

Lu Yunjiao, Lu Yunfeng, Zhang Po, and several generals gathered together.

Everyone sat together and had an in-depth, detailed and intense discussion on the key issue of which direction they should first launch a counterattack against the enemy.

Lu Yunjiao was the first to break the silence and expressed her own opinion, "In my opinion, we should first give up counterattacks against the enemy forces in the west.

The reason is simple: if we take the initiative to attack the enemy in the west.

Then the warlord troops on its left and right sides, that is, on the south and north, would surely rush to support.

In this way, we will have to engage in an all-round, fierce battle with the warlord's troops.

Although we currently have relatively sophisticated weapons and equipment, we have to admit that there is a huge gap between us and them in terms of numbers.

If an all-out war were to break out, we might have a chance of winning, but in the end it would most likely be a tragic victory.

You know, every soldier in our National Salvation Army is extremely precious, and we must not easily get involved in this endless war of attrition with them!

Since the option of due west is ruled out, the only things left to consider are the enemies to the north and south.

As for which enemy side we should attack first, this is something we should sit down and discuss carefully and seriously. "

Zhang Po slowly opened his mouth, his voice low and firm, "That's right, comrades, under the current situation, we must not easily launch a counterattack against the enemy in the west.

Once we do this, there is no doubt that we will be involved in an all-out battle with the enemy.

This situation is extremely disadvantageous for us because it is likely to put us in a passive situation. ”

He paused, then continued, "Everyone, please see that there are enemies on both the north and south sides eyeing us covetously.

According to intelligence, the enemy in the south has deployed two divisions of troops, with a total of more than 20,000 people.

To the north, there were three enemy divisions with more than 30,000 troops ready for battle.

To our west, there are also three enemy divisions with more than 30,000 elite troops. "

There was silence in the conference room, and everyone was thinking seriously about Zhang Po's words.

After a while, Zhang Po continued his analysis, "Taking all factors into consideration, I think we should adopt the strategy of starting with the easy and then moving on to the difficult.

First, concentrate our forces to eliminate the more than 20,000 enemy troops in the south, and then consider whether to launch an attack on the enemies in other directions based on the actual situation.

This will not only reduce our casualties and losses, but will also gradually turn the tide of the battle and seize the initiative.”

After an intense discussion, the meeting finally reached a conclusion quickly and reached a consensus.

Using the powerful armored regiment as the vanguard, it took the lead in launching a fierce counterattack against the enemy in the south.

As the order was issued, the entire combat plan began to be prepared in full swing...
