Warlords: I just made a little fortune, but I didn’t build a country.

At the headquarters of the 32nd Brigade, the brigade commander Taichi Wadada was commanding his troops to eliminate the two Imperial infantry brigades in the north city. After three infantry battalions and an artillery squadron spent several hours on encirclement and suppression, the two Imperial infantry brigades suffered heavy losses. Just as they were preparing to finish off the operation and annihilate the two Imperial infantry brigades in one fell swoop, news of war suddenly came from the front line.

"Your Excellency General."

The adjutant came up to Taichi Wadada and said, "The imperial army has set out."

"How many have come?"

"The whole army is mobilized."

"Yoshi," Taichi Nada smiled, his banhu tilted as he laughed, "The division headquarters said that all the imperial troops have been dispatched. We can close in now."

"Hi!"

The adjutant nodded, bowed, and then left.

"Your Excellency, Brigade Commander," the deputy brigade commander came to Taichi Wadada and said, "There are 70,000 to 80,000 soldiers in the imperial army, and we only have the strength of a brigade. I'm afraid we can't hold out for too long. It will take at least an hour and a half for the main force of the division to come to support us."

"Don't worry, we have the support of naval artillery fire. With the combat power of the Daqian Kingdom, let alone 32 or , even if it is , the thousands of warriors of my nd Brigade can still inflict heavy damage on the enemy."

"As long as we destroy this imperial army," said Taichi Nagada with anticipation, "the entire Shanglu will belong to our Great Dongyang Empire. You know, as long as we take Shanglu, our military can at least expand 30 divisions. By then, the entire Daqian Kingdom will be in our Great Dongyang Empire's pocket. As long as we use the resources of the Daqian Kingdom, the entire Blue Star may not be in the hands of us Dongyang people!"

When Taichi Nada was imagining that the East Asian country would become the world hegemon, Chang Xingwang arrived at the front with the 78th Infantry Brigade. At this time, the Japanese 322nd Infantry Regiment relied on the fortress in the west and the trenches as a defensive position to defend the entire northern city. In addition, there was an artillery battalion.

"brigadier."

At the underground command post, the reconnaissance company commander came up to Chang Xingwang and said, "We have learned that the Japanese artillery is 800 meters northwest of the position, and there is a Japanese squadron defending it. It is only 800 meters away from the main position. If we launch a surprise attack, the Japanese will be able to arrive to support us within a few minutes."

"Then kill them with artillery!"

Chang Xingwang was lying on the command post with a telescope, looking at the Japanese positions and said, "The Japanese are sure that we don't have heavy artillery. I calculated that the Japanese artillery battalion is about five kilometers away from us, within the range. Your reconnaissance company will give the detailed location parameters to the artillery battalion, and let the two artillery battalions take out 48 infantry guns. Fire. First kill the Japanese artillery battalion, then extend the firepower to destroy the Japanese bunkers, and then the infantry regiment will attack. I'm going to wipe out this main force of the Japanese today."

"Yes, Brigadier."

The reconnaissance company commander quickly sent professional geographical academics to mark the detailed location of the Japanese artillery battalion, and then the bombing map appeared in the hands of the two artillery battalions.

"Old Zhao."

Li Wei, the commander of the artillery battalion of the 78th Infantry Brigade, said, "We are cooperating this time. The brigade commander said that if we can't defeat the Japanese artillery, we will be transferred to the Mining Bureau to mine."

"Do not worry!"

Zhao Yong said, "Forty-eight 75mm infantry guns with a range of 6900 meters. The positions and specific parameters of the Japanese artillery, as well as equipment for measuring wind speed, if we still can't hit them, then we can really go mining. Let's go and check out the artillery positions. The brigade commander said that the artillery attack will start at pm, and there are only ten minutes left."

The two men came to the artillery position, where 48 infantry guns lay majestically on the ground. All the soldiers were ready. Under the command of the deputy battalion commander, all the muzzle scales had been adjusted and could launch fire strikes on the Japanese artillery battalion at any time.

"I say, you two, you are finally here."

The two deputy battalion commanders came up to Zhao Yong and Li Wei and said, "There is only one minute left. You guys should give the order!"

"Ah."

The 78th Infantry Brigade was the main attacking force, so naturally the brigade's artillery battalion was the commander-in-chief. So Li Wei took two steps forward and shouted, "Brothers, aim and fire three rounds, then extend the firepower to the back three scales, keep the height unchanged, and fire!"

"fire!"

48 infantry guns were arranged in four rows. After the order to fire was given, the artillerymen quickly pulled the fuse, and the shells were quickly ejected from the muzzles, leaving bullet marks in the air.

48 shells were fired almost at the same time and hit the Japanese artillery position heavily. At this time, 12 Japanese 70mm mountain cannons were on standby. The soldiers were resting shortly after lunch. A Japanese artilleryman looked up at the sky and suddenly saw black spots coming towards him. As an artilleryman, he knew best what this was.

"Eight!"

"Boom!"

All 48 75mm infantry artillery shells fell on the Japanese artillery positions. One of the shells hit the Japanese mountain cannon. The huge impact force directly overturned the Japanese artillery, and parts were scattered all over the place.

"what!"

As for the Japanese artillery, there is no need to mention it. In this surprise attack, one artillery shell after another became the deadly stickers for the Japanese, leaving them no chance to even run away.

After three rounds of fire coverage, the Japanese artillery battalion was almost completely wiped out, all 12 mountain cannons were destroyed, and more than half of the hundreds of artillerymen were lost. Then the artillery fire began to extend, covering the bunkers in the Japanese main force's positions.

"Your Excellency, the brigade commander, our front line is under enemy attack!"

"Our troops were attacked by the enemy!"

The adjutant quickly came to Taichi Wadada and said, "The imperial army that attacked us has heavy artillery. We have lost all our artillery, and all 12 mountain cannons have been destroyed. Now they are bombarding our bunkers."

"West!"

Taichi Wadada looked at the map. If it was to the west, then the current naval guns of the Oriental country would not be able to hit it. Even if they could hit it, the distance was too far, and it would be easy to hurt themselves by mistake in close combat.

"idiot."

"Don't panic!"

Taichi Wadada said, "Let the navy provide us with artillery support and pour fire on the imperial army in the east and south. As for the west, let Captain Honkawa hold it for an hour and a half. After that, the main forces of our two major divisions of the Eastern Kingdom will arrive to support us."

"Hi Yi!"

On the western front battlefield, 48 artillery pieces were already smoking. After seven rounds of fire coverage, 336 shells fell and destroyed the enemy's artillery units and 23 bunkers. At this time, the infantry was preparing to attack.

"Good job!"

Chang Xingwang saw that all the Japanese bunkers had been blown up at the headquarters. He clenched his fists and shouted happily, "Let two infantry regiments launch an attack for me, and the artillery provide two rounds of fire support. We must break through the Japanese defense line today."

After the order was issued, the commander of the 781st Infantry Regiment, Cai Jianming, and the commander of the 782nd Infantry Regiment, Cheng Ye, were ready to launch attacks from the front and flank respectively.
