Shanghai: The First Warlord of the Republic of China
Chapter 303 The Battle Begins
What he had to do was to carefully observe any situation of the entire battle without anyone noticing.
If we were on land, we would definitely not be able to observe the overall situation of the battle.
But on an aircraft carrier, you can see everything clearly through a telescope.
Of course, there is another way, which is to fly directly into the sky to watch the battle.
There are also more than a dozen fighter jets on his aircraft carrier.
It depends on the situation at that time.
In short, everything has been prepared properly.
Now, it depends on the performance of Ding Li and Xu Wenqiang.
……
Wu Fatian was the commander-in-chief of the coalition forces of the five southeastern provinces.
However, because the two provinces of Jiangnan and Jiangbei had already been occupied by Ye Yunfei, Wu Fatian now only controls three provinces.
These three provinces are his main territories.
Wu Fatian's large forces were concentrated in these three provinces.
Among these three provinces, the most important are Jiangsu and Zhejiang provinces.
Jiangsu and Zhejiang provinces are the most important, richest and largest provinces on the southeast coast.
The reason why Wu Fatian was able to become the commander-in-chief of the coalition forces of the five southeastern provinces and dominate the southeast was largely because he occupied Jiangsu and Zhejiang provinces.
The fiscal revenue of Jiangsu and Zhejiang provinces alone is almost comparable to the total of other provinces in the entire southeast region.
Therefore, Jiangsu and Zhejiang provinces are also Wu Fatian’s base camp.
Wu Fatian had an army of nearly 500,000, with more than 300,000 gathered in Jiangsu and Zhejiang provinces, while the other two provinces had only about 100,000 each.
Before coming, Xu Wenqiang had already investigated the situation thoroughly.
Therefore, after the army approached Wu Fatian's territory, he said to Ding Li: "Ali, Wu Fatian now has three provinces under his command, namely Anhui, Fujian, and Jiangsu and Zhejiang."
"Among these three provinces, Jiangsu and Zhejiang are the most important. They are also Wu Fatian's base camps. Therefore, Wu Fatian has gathered a large number of troops in Jiangsu and Zhejiang."
"Our final target should be Jiangsu and Zhejiang provinces."
Ding Li said: "Brother Qiang, what you mean is that we should attack Anhui and Fujian first."
Xu Wenqiang nodded and said, "Yes, I have already investigated. Wu Fatian does not have many people deployed in Anhui and Fujian provinces. There are only about 100,000 people in each province."
"You and I each have an army of 200,000 men, and our weapons and equipment far exceed those of Wu Fatian's army."
"So, the two of us will each lead an army of 200,000 to attack Fujian and Anhui first, take these two provinces, and then join forces to besiege Jiangsu and Zhejiang."
"After taking Anhui and Fujian, Wu Fatian will only have one province. Even if he has more troops, he won't be able to hold out for long under our siege."
Ding Li said: "Okay, let's do it."
"I will attack Anhui, and you will attack Fujian. After we take them down, we will go together to deal with Jiangsu and Zhejiang, Wu Laogou's base camp."
Xu Wenqiang said, "Okay, let's get started right away. Since we just arrived and haven't revealed our whereabouts, Wu Fatian should not know about our arrival yet."
"It's not difficult to swallow up two of his provinces before he can react."
"Remember, don't hold back your planes, tanks, etc. Use them all, use the most powerful firepower, and destroy all of his troops defending the city."
"If nothing unexpected happens, we will be able to occupy Anhui and Fujian provinces within three days."
Xu Wenqiang had already formulated a battle plan.
They have more people than Wu Fatian, and their equipment is better than Wu Fatian's.
In both provinces, 200,000 men attacked against 100,000 men by surprise, with the addition of planes, tanks, mortars, and light and heavy machine guns.
With the military strength of these two provinces, they can't hold out for long.
According to Ye Yunfei's estimation, it would take about three days to completely occupy these two provinces.
Moreover, the two provinces must be captured within three days.
If it takes more than three days and Wu Fatian reacts and sends more troops, there will be some trouble.
So, three days is the longest time.
After everything was discussed, Xu Wenqiang and Ding Li divided their forces into two groups.
Xu Wenqiang marched towards Fujian, while Ding Li marched towards Anhui.
The two men each led an army of 200,000 and launched a fierce attack.
There is actually no suspense in the battle between these two provinces.
The military strength of Xu Wenqiang and Ding Li is twice that of the other side.
Planes and tanks are far beyond the reach of Wu Fatian's ragtag army.
So, at five o'clock in the morning, Xu Wenqiang and Ding Li issued combat orders respectively.
Hundreds of planes immediately flew over the provinces of Fujian and Anhui, and then countless shells fell from the planes.
The entire Anhui and Fujian provinces were instantly turned into a sea of fire.
I don’t know how many people were killed in the city.
Of course, before the battle, Xu Wenqiang also ordered that bombs should not be dropped in places where civilians exist.
Although once a war breaks out, civilians are basically unlikely to escape.
However, they still try their best to avoid harming civilians. Only in this way can they win the hearts of the people.
So, although it seemed that shells were constantly falling from planes in the sky, most of the shells hit the guards of the two provinces.
Very few civilians were killed.
When Wu Fatian's army saw the countless planes in the sky, they were stunned. They had never seen so many planes before.
Moreover, these planes continued to drop bombs on them.
Wu Fatian's troops in these two provinces had low combat effectiveness and poor equipment, and they had no way to deal with the planes in the sky.
Countless people were killed.
After the planes had carried out rounds of bombing, countless tanks appeared on the plain ahead.
Everywhere you look, you see almost endless tanks bombarding the two provinces fiercely.
Almost all the planes, tanks, flying machines and running machines on the ground arrived in Fujian and Anhui provinces.
The troops defending the city had almost no power to resist.
The Longmen army occupied the two provincial capitals with a devastating force.
It didn't take three days at all, but only one and a half days, and the two provinces of Anhui and Fujian fell into Longmen's hands.
Ding Li and Xu Wenqiang completely occupied these two provinces.
Ye Yunfei was on the aircraft carrier. Although he could not see the entire picture of the battle, the situation on the front line was still being reported to him continuously.
He was very excited to learn that Ding Li and Xu Wenqiang had occupied Anhui and Fujian provinces in less than a day and a half.
"Wen Qiang and Ali are great. They took over two provinces in just over a day. I guess that old dog Wu Fatian hasn't even realized it yet. He has already lost two provinces."
"Yes, these two guys are becoming more and more like generals now."
"If you don't make a sound, you'll be amazing. I'm really surprised."
