Warlords: Rising from the Northwest Border and Sweeping Across the Powers

A month later, at the parade ground of the Northwest Revolutionary Army Headquarters.

The 300 members of the Dragon God Special Operations Team lined up, and Li Yunlong stood in front of them and gave them a speech.

"This is the first mission assigned to our Dragon God Special Operations Team by the commander. It's also the time for our Dragon God Special Operations Team to show our swords. Damn, everyone, get ready. If anyone dares to fail me during the operation, I will be the first to kill him!"

"Wei Dayong!"

"To!"

"All members of the Dragon God Special Operations Team will be divided into groups of 10 and infiltrate Zhongshan County in Yunzhou in batches. Carry radios and wait for orders."

"The target of this mission will pass through Zhongshan County, Yunzhou in half a month. We must succeed and not fail. We must complete the first mission assigned to us by the commander beautifully."

The Dragon God team began to split into small groups of 10, disguised as ordinary merchants, caravans, and civilians, and rushed towards Yunzhou.

After the Dragon God Squad left, Su Zhengyang said in the headquarters' combat command room: "The damn Guo warlord has become the same as the Pang warlord, a lackey of the Fuso people. For nearly three months, our Northwest Revolutionary Army has not taken any action and has not provoked any war. Guo Qicheng is also waiting for military assistance from the Fuso people. We can't let the Guo warlord live so comfortably. It's time to take action."

"Pass on my order for the Second Combat Division to launch a full-scale attack from Yuanshan City to the north into Luoshui City."

"The 47th Division of the Second Army of the expired warlords is responsible for guarding Luoshui City. In Anxiang City, not far from Luoshui City, the 62nd Division of the Second Army is also stationed there. Once we launch an attack on Luoshui City, the 62nd Division will certainly provide assistance in a very short time. The goal of the Second Combat Division this time is to capture the entire Luoshui City within half a month, and completely annihilate the 47th Division and severely damage the 62nd Division, laying the groundwork for the next capture of Anxiang City."

"Report to the division commander. A telegram has come from the headquarters asking us to immediately launch a full-scale attack on Luoshui City, which is north of Yuanshan City. We must capture the entire Luoshui City within half a month and completely annihilate the 47th Division."

"Notify everyone immediately and have all the senior officers in the city gather in the combat command room. I want to hold a pre-war meeting."

In the 2nd Division's combat command room, Zheng Zeyu pointed to the map spread out on the long table and slowly said, "140 miles north of Yuanshan City is Wucheng County in Luoshui City. The terrain here is a pass, and there are high mountains nearby. The 47th Division has stockpiled heavy troops here. The 216th Brigade and the 217th Brigade, two brigade-level combat units, are stationed in Wucheng County. They have built defensive positions outside the county, dug a large number of trenches, and underground fortifications to prevent artillery attacks from our Northwest Revolutionary Army."

"If our Second Division does not move, then it will be nothing. If it does move, it must make a splash and fight tough battles. We will use Wucheng County as a breakthrough point, break through the pass, fortifications, and defensive positions that they are proud of, and give their 47th Division a heavy blow, showing the momentum of our Second Combat Division of the Northwest Revolutionary Army."

"Fourth Brigade, I give you three days. You must open a gap for me on the front battlefield and break through Wucheng County's defense line!"

Three months later, the Northwest Revolutionary Army once again launched an offensive like a tiger descending from the mountains.

The 4th Brigade of the 2nd Combat Division launched a full-scale offensive against the defensive positions in front of Wucheng County.

The sound of artillery fire from the Second Division's artillery regiment roared in the air, and shells continued to fall on the defensive positions of Wucheng County.

Round after round of artillery shelling caused extremely serious damage to the combat troops of the enemy's 216th and 217th Brigades.

Fortunately, they had dug a hole three or four meters deep in the position in advance, which finally played a certain role.

After the artillery fire stopped, the loud sound of the charge horn resounded throughout the battlefield.

The Fourth Reinforced Regiment of the Fourth Brigade took the lead and launched an attack on the enemy's defensive positions.

The fighting on the battlefield was extremely brutal, with bullets flying everywhere, and the remaining enemy combat forces were also extremely brave, engaging in a positional tug-of-war with the 4th Brigade.

The battlefield was filled with smoke, corpses were everywhere, and blood had gathered into rivers, dyeing the land outside Wucheng County red.

With the support of heroic fighting will and advanced firepower equipment, the Fourth Reinforced Regiment of the Fourth Brigade successfully broke through the defensive positions stretching for several miles in front of Wucheng County after suffering 30% casualties. The war evolved from a gunfight at the beginning to a hand-to-hand combat after rushing into the trenches.

The Northwest Revolutionary Army displayed an extremely tenacious fighting will and individual combat capabilities that far exceeded those of the enemy.

After breaking through the defensive positions, the 216th Brigade continued its momentum, blew up the city wall of Wucheng County, rushed into the city, and captured senior officers of the 217th Brigade alive, while the senior commander of the th Brigade had already died in the defensive position in front of Wucheng County.

The war lasted for a full six hours. The Wucheng County Pass, which was originally estimated to take three days to open, was completely captured by the Second Combat Division in less than a day.

"Commander, there is good news from the front line. The 4727th Brigade has successfully captured Wucheng County. In this battle, our army killed 6152 enemy troops and captured 217 prisoners. The commander and chief of staff of the 216th Brigade died in the defensive position in front of Wucheng County, and the senior commander of the th Brigade was captured alive by our army."

Zheng Zeyu's expression did not change at all, and he continued to issue orders calmly: "Use Wucheng County as the base camp, let the Fourth Brigade take a break for the time being, and let the Fifth Brigade take over. Don't worry about the small forces in other counties in Luoshui City, and go straight to Huanglong and take Luoshui City for me."

"Also, have the Sixth Reinforced Regiment of the Sixth Brigade set up a defense line west of Wucheng County to prevent the troops of the 62nd Division of Anxiang City from coming to support us."

"Yes, Commander."

Three days later, the Governor's Office of the Guo warlord in Yong'an City received news that all combat units of the 42nd Division of the Second Army were completely annihilated by the Second Combat Division of the Northwest Revolutionary Army.

The entire Luoshui City fell and became a new territory occupied by the Northwest Revolutionary Army.

It only took less than 5 days for Zheng Zeyu to give Su Zhengyang a satisfactory answer. The Second Combat Division, which Su Zhengyang had high hopes for, is no less than the world's top combat forces in terms of its combat form, combat momentum, and the on-the-spot command ability of its officers.

The Northwest Revolutionary Army has truly grown from a fledgling with its wings not yet fully grown into an eagle capable of soaring into the sky.

The Second Combat Division fought the toughest battle of the Northwest Revolutionary Army since its establishment, boosting the morale of the entire army.

The Guo faction of warlords had never won a single battle against the Northwest Revolutionary Army and suffered repeated defeats, which made Guo Qicheng extremely angry, but helpless.

The equipment and firepower of the Northwest Revolutionary Army were already several levels ahead of them, so Guo Qicheng could only hope for the military assistance provided by the Japanese.
