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

"Hahaha."

"Damn it, I've finally waited for this day. It's not easy!"

A sharp laugh was heard from the Southern Military Region Headquarters. It was the voice of the Southern Military Region Commander-in-Chief, Zhang Beishan.

When they knew they were going to attack Kowloon Island, the laughter didn't stop for three full minutes.

"Lao Zhang, what makes you so happy?"

Tang Yuanjun, Chief of Staff of the Southern Military Region, quickly came to the headquarters and asked Zhang Beishan, "Could it be that the higher-ups have equipped us with new weapons?"

"Old Tang."

Zhang Beishan grinned and said, "No, but this is a better thing than equipping new weapons. The military called us just now and asked us to take back Jiulong Island by force."

"Take it back by force?"

"Yes."

Zhang Beishan nodded and said, "The three great powers are refusing to return the concessions, and are restricting our development. Take our Southern Military Region for example. The Eagle Country controls Kowloon Island, and our island chain construction plan has been delayed. The lifeline of our maritime trade is also in the hands of the Eagle Country, and they can cut off our maritime trade at any time."

"You said, we just established a golden road on the sea with Qinglong Country, and it just happened to pass through this Jiulong Island. How could His Majesty the Emperor Qin not take swift action?"

"Since there is an order from above, we must use the strength of the Southern Military Region and strike with lightning speed to reclaim Kowloon Island in the shortest time and at the lowest cost."

"Yes."

Zhang Beishan said excitedly, "I have studied Jiulong Island in depth. I know their troop deployment and the specific location of the troop deployment. I have been thinking about how to attack for three or four years and have deduced it hundreds of times."

"Then I will not participate in the battle to take back Kowloon Island this time." Tang Yuanjun said.

He is now over sixty years old, in his sixties, and is loved by the Emperor of Qin. He is also blessed by the Emperor Emeritus and was awarded the rank of general. What is embarrassing is that the commander-in-chief of the Southern Military Region, Zhang Beishan, is only a four-star general, while he, the chief of staff, is a third-class general. Therefore, he did not participate in the battle to take back Kowloon Island and gave the credit to Zhang Beishan. With such merit, it is not impossible for him to be awarded a five-star general or a third-class general.

"Mr. Tang's kindness is something I, Zhang Beishan, will always remember."

Zhang Beishan bowed deeply to Tang Yuanjun. Before, the other party gave him the position of the commander-in-chief of the Southern Military Region, which was a great favor. Now he gave him this great achievement. It was really! I don't know how to repay this great kindness.

"It doesn't have to be this way."

Tang Yuanjun explained, "I am over 60 years old. If I serve as the commander-in-chief of the Southern Military Region, I am afraid I will not be able to do it for many years. When the military region changes its commander, it will cause a lot of fluctuations. It will be even more inappropriate during wartime. Besides, it is time for you guys to be the main force now. We should also step down and let others take over. Only in this way can our Great Qin Kingdom be passed down for thousands of years."

"Mr. Tang's dedication to the country and the people is truly a role model for us."

The two men exchanged a few words from their hearts, and then Tang Yuanjun left, asking the General Staff to fully assist Zhang Beishan in taking back Jiulong Island.

Under the emergency call, the group army commanders under the Southern Military Region came to the military region headquarters and began to obey the orders of the commander-in-chief Zhang Beishan.

"Everyone."

Zhang Beishan looked at his officers and said, "According to our investigation, Eagle Country has 3.3 troops stationed on Jiulong Island, which is more than four times the original . We must strike hard against such a wolfish ambition and take back the territory that belongs to our Great Qin Country."

"Commander-in-chief, please give the order!"

The commander of the 118th Army Group said, "With the strength of the Southern Military Region, it will be easy to take back Kowloon Island. The 118th Army Group is willing to fight."

"Don't be anxious, kid. You'll have a fight to make!"

Zhang Beishan had someone bring out a sand table, on which was shown the terrain of the entire Kowloon Island and its surrounding waters, as well as the location of the Eagle Country’s garrison troops in the Kowloon Island area.

"Look," Zhang Beishan said, holding a command post and pointing to Jiulong Island on the sand table, "The Eagle Country Garrison Command has two infantry divisions, with a total of about 3 infantrymen, and a naval fleet with five destroyers, a heavy cruiser of more than 5 tons, and an air force base with about 60 flying fighter planes."

"So, my combat mission is very simple, soldiers against soldiers, generals against generals."

"First, send bombers to blow up the Eagle Country's air force base, and then the Hanhai Fleet will eat up the Eagle Country's naval fleet. As for the infantry on the island, leave it to us. We will have a special operations brigade, three infantry divisions, and an armored division to attack, and our target will be the Eagle Country's garrison headquarters."

Next, Zhang Beishan described a detailed combat plan, which he had summarized after hundreds of simulations. It was very detailed and each unit was arranged very properly.

After the detailed combat plan was arranged, the commanders of the major army groups began to deploy their troops, because the time had been set. On April 4, that is, at six o'clock tomorrow morning, they would launch an attack to retake Kowloon Island.

......

At six in the morning, the sky was just turning pale, as if a thin layer of silver gauze was covering the earth. The air was fresh and slightly cool, with a faint scent of grass and moist soil. The breeze blew gently, and the leaves rustled, as if awakening the world still immersed in sleep.

"Buzzing."

The sound of engines buzzing in the sky completely awakened the dreaming world. When I opened my eyes, I saw hundreds of fighter planes roaring past, flying towards the direction of Kowloon Island Air Force Base.

"Captain."

A pilot looked at the natural scenery and said, "This sky is so beautiful. Do you think we can return safely from this mission?"

"Stinky boy."

The flight captain laughed and scolded the person who was speaking, "Why, you're so scared of marrying a beautiful wife?"

"hey-hey."

A laughing voice came from the intercom, "Yes, Sister Qian has only been married to me for three days, I can't let her be a widow. However, I, Zhang Xiaofei, am definitely not a person who fears death. Being able to fight and die for the country is a blessing that my Zhang family has cultivated for several lifetimes."

"Do not worry!"

The flight captain said, "Our attack plan is very secretive. The Eagle Country guys can't possibly know about it. Also, you're flying the most advanced supersonic fighter jet of our Great Qin Country, the Phoenix. Do you know what the Phoenix is? It means immortal."

"All right."

The flight captain continued, "We have three minutes to reach the target location. Everyone, cheer up and try to complete the mission successfully and return alive together."
