Sword of Light: I Can Summon the Fourth Disaster

Tianjin Outskirts Luyu Corps Headquarters

Shen Yi stood in front of a huge map of Tianjin and looked around at the military commanders present.

"Since your troops are already in place today, I won't waste any more words."

"I have already made a promise to the headquarters that I will take over Tianjin within three days."

As soon as Shen Yi finished speaking, Baili Feng, the leader of the first detachment of the Luyu Corps, raised his hand to speak.

"Boss Shen, our team has just been reorganized and the coordination among the various units is not yet proficient. The Japanese have also deployed heavy troops in Tianjin. If we attack them forcefully, I am afraid there will be too many casualties."

The leader of the third detachment, Xu Fang, also said, "There are five Japanese divisions in Tianjin now, plus the existing marines, railway guards, detectives, military police, and fake police. The number is no less than 200,000."

"But our team has grown from 100,000 soldiers who went north to 130,000 soldiers now, 30% of whom are new soldiers. I'm afraid it will be difficult to complete the tasks assigned by the headquarters."

Hearing Xu Fang's concerns, Shen Yi did not respond. Instead, he turned around and looked at the other captains, then asked calmly, "Does anyone else have any questions?"

Although those who were familiar with Shen Yi could see that he was a little angry, the vast majority of commanders and fighters had objections to Shen Yi's orders.

In the eyes of players, death is not scary, but what is scary is meaningless death.

When their Lu-Yu Corps went north, they only brought a limited group of officers, and most of these players were distributed to the troops when the troops were expanded.

Now, if you want to attack a city, you can only do it by the player and the local warriors. If the player dies, it's dead, at least you can be resurrected, but if the local warriors die, they are really dead.

The fourth detachment commander Jiang Hanyue put out the cigarette in his hand, stood up and said, "Boss Shen, it's not that we don't have the courage to fight, but the casualties of the troops under the strong attack are too heavy, and we can't explain it."

Li Xiao, the leader of the Fifth Detachment, also responded: "Boss Shen, attacking Tianjin will inevitably involve street fighting. I cannot let my soldiers die in vain."

"Even if you can bring two officer corps, I will then lead the brothers in our detachment to form an officer suicide squad and will definitely take Tianjin for you!" The captain of the Sixth Detachment also said.

With these team leaders taking the lead, other officers and soldiers also spoke out their concerns one after another.

Shen Yi listened carefully and found that they were all afraid that the local soldiers would suffer too many casualties and they would not be able to explain to their families.

It’s not that these commanders and fighters are afraid of fighting, but that in field battles, ordinary infantry have artillery and tanks to provide them with cover.

But when it comes to fighting in the city, it really turns into a meat grinder, with close combat. No matter how many bulletproof vests you wear, they are useless. You will be shot through if you are supposed to.

Now that he knew their concerns, Shen Yi chuckled: "Now that you have concerns, I will solve them for you?"

"The first team said that there are too many new recruits in the army. Is this problem difficult to solve? Our team expanded by recruiting local militia. They just lack guns, not combat experience."

"The Third Squadron is afraid that the enemy outnumbers us. Without superior manpower, we cannot gain an advantage in street fighting in the city."

"This is easier to solve. Last night, the two artillery brigades in the Ludong Liberated Area have already loaded their vehicles and are heading towards us. They should be here by now."

"As for the concerns of the fourth, fifth, and sixth detachments about excessive sacrifices, that can be solved more easily."

"The principal has ordered Ye Lisan's military division to head towards Tianjin, and Boss Bai has also brought tens of thousands of players to us."

Upon hearing that the 4th Division had prepared a 10,000-strong officer corps for the Lu-Yu Corps, many commanders and fighters breathed a sigh of relief.

It is definitely impossible to liberate Tianjin in one day. The nearest resurrection point is not far from Tianjin. There are 20,000 to 30,000 players, which is enough for them.

Seeing that many commanders and fighters had calmed down, Shen Yi cleared his throat and began to arrange combat tasks.

"Tianjin is long and narrow from north to south, with a waist-shaped shape in the middle. This was mentioned when 103 attacked Tianjin."

"I think you have all reviewed the arrangements made by the 103rd Liberation Army when they liberated Tianjin. We will follow the 103rd Army's approach."

"Let's attack from both the east and the west, cut him in half, split him into north and south, and make him unable to take care of both ends."

"The 1st, 2nd, 7th, 8th, 12th and 13th detachments plus two officer corps will form the Western Group and attack from west to east. This will be the first main attack direction, advancing from the Peace Gate line."

"The other seven detachments, namely the third, fourth, fifth, sixth, ninth, tenth and eleventh detachments, plus the remaining officers' corps, will form the Eastern Group and attack from east to west, which will be the second main attack direction."

"All tank units will be divided into two groups, with one group entering the city first as the vanguard. After entering the city, the two groups will encircle the Jintang Bridge."

"The two heavy artillery brigades from the Fourth Division plus all the heavy artillery from our headquarters are located in the east and west directions of Tianjin."

"Once the war begins, the artillery will hit the enemy's headquarters. When the 103rd attacked Tianjin, they only deployed more than 500 artillery pieces, but our artillery now has 3600 artillery pieces."

"I hope that once the battle starts, all the bunkers and fortifications built by the Japanese during this period will be demolished."

"Yes!"

......

In a small village outside the capital, this is the headquarters of Zhang Zonglin's troops

When Li Yunlong's rapid response team arrived, Zhang Zonglin had been waiting at the village entrance for a long time.

When Li Yunlong and the other two got off the truck, Kong Jie looked at the entrance of the village in surprise and whispered, "Old Li, we haven't heard that you have a brother?"

Li Yunlong squinted his eyes to look at Zhang Zonglin and nodded with satisfaction. He was a handsome young man. Although he didn't look exactly like Old Li, he was about 80% similar to him.

"Hahaha, Captain Li, Zong Lin has been waiting for you for a long time!" A loud laugh came from the side, and a player stepped out to introduce the two to each other.

Li Yunlong took a look at the player and said with some surprise: "You are Lu Chen! Hahaha, long time no see!"

Zhejichensha chuckled and hurried forward to hold Li Yunlong's hand: "Captain Li, I haven't seen you for a few months. You are more elegant than before!"

"Xiao Lu, I remember that you are a civilian staff member. How come you are here?" Although Li Yunlong was excited to meet an acquaintance, he still asked the doubts in his heart.

Zhejichensha smiled bitterly and whispered in Li Yunlong's ear: "Captain Li, the principal arranged for me to come here."

"Our commander in charge of attacking the capital has a bad temper. Our principal is afraid that he will confront you, so he asked me to act as a matchmaker for you two."

"This time our column is attacking both Beijing and Tianjin at the same time. The column leader wants to capture them both at the same time."
