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

At Chengbei headquarters, Song Guoan and Foreign Minister Lei He were arguing fiercely because the battle of Yingnan could not continue like this, otherwise it would shake the foundation of the imperial army.

"Now that the Dragon and Tiger Army has been crippled, the major forces have let down their guard. Now that the First War Zone is basically controlled by our new army, we cannot let our new army soldiers block the enemy's artillery fire."

Lei He said, "The task of encircling the Japanese army must be handed over to Cao's army. Cao's army still has 12 soldiers, which is enough to complete this task. After this battle, Cao's army will suffer heavy losses, and the overall strength of the Yunnan-Guizhou Inspector General will be greatly reduced, which is a good thing for our court."

"Lei Xiang, I understand your urgency, but I said that no matter how you plan, it cannot affect the battle on the front line!"

Song Guoan shouted at the top of his voice, "You have repeatedly made arrangements to affect the battle on the front line, causing the soldiers to pay for your deeds with their lives. I will never do such a deal! The soldiers trust me, Song Guoan, and I must live up to them."

"Commander-in-Chief Song, this is His Majesty's intention."

Lei He said, "The battle of Yingnan has begun. His Majesty has already said this furnace tactic. The devils must be killed, and the foreign troops must also be killed. If Daqian cannot be unified, this war will not be won. So His Majesty is doing this so that we can become the final winner!"

"Look at the Qin army in the northwest. They have an army of 15 or , but they have only sent out more than troops. The Cao army has left troops, as have the Hunan army and the Wolf army. How can we win? How can we defeat the powerful Dongyang Kingdom? As long as we eliminate these foreign armies, our Daqian court can gather all its strength to fight against Dongyang Kingdom. Then we will win this battle!"

"Hey!"

Song Guoan shook his head and sighed, "Order, the Cao army in the fourth war zone will go to Hanshan to encircle the Japanese army, and the rest of the troops will drive the Japanese to the border of Hanshan and assist the Cao army in destroying the main force of the Japanese!"

After Song Guoan's order was issued, the two major war zones began to move and started to carry out the final encirclement and suppression of the main force of the Japanese devils in Yingnan.

On Beiyuan Avenue, a large number of soldiers in light black uniforms were marching quickly. Their clothes were thin and they marched quickly in the cold weather, heading towards Hanshan to encircle and suppress the main force of the Japanese invaders.

In the jeep, Liang Yongfu, deputy commander of the Cao army, was deducing tactics with a map. Since their Cao army entered the north to fight the war, they have lost three armies. Now there are only 3 troops left, which is four armies and two heavy artillery brigades. It can be said that the loss is not small.

"Deputy Commander Liang, if we win this battle, the credit will belong to our Cao army!"

"Hahaha."

In the car, several Cao army commanders said, "The Qin army shows up frequently, so our Cao army can't be inferior. This time the main force is our Cao army. We will wait for the massacre of the devils in Hanshan! It's time for us to launch a counterattack. The devils have been arrogant for long enough."

"Don't be careless."

Liang Yongfu said, "Although the Japs only have a few hundred thousand troops now, they should not be underestimated."

"Don't worry, deputy commander."

The commander of the 91st Army said, "The Japanese now have a force of over 20, but the First Theater has 20 troops, and the Fourth Theater has 40 new troops, a total of troops to carry out a comprehensive encirclement and suppression of the Japanese. How much strength can the Japanese have left after this encirclement and suppression? We just need to sharpen our knives in Hanshan. There are still large troops in the rear to assist us in annihilating the Japanese, so there won't be any major problems."

"Really!"

Liang Yongfu frowned as he looked at the map. He felt a little uneasy inside because he thought things were not as simple as he thought!

In three days, 12 troops of Cao arrived at the Hanshan area. The four armies lined up and began to build fortifications, waiting for the army to drive the Japanese to Hanshan, and then they began to implement the harvesting plan.

"Build your position more firmly. You are still smoking here. The enemy is coming soon!"

A colonel of the Cao army kicked a squad leader on the buttocks and cursed, "Do you want to die? You are still smoking here. If you don't kill a few more Japanese devils for me, I will beat you up!"

"elder brother!"

The squad leader smiled and said, "Don't worry, we won't embarrass you, just wait and see!"

"Stop talking nonsense and build the fortifications quickly. The Japanese will surely charge madly at that time because this is their retreat route, so we must withstand the Japanese charge. How? We rely on this position. As long as the position is solid, the Japanese will be helpless."

"I know, brother."

"Old Chen."

The colonel said to the adjutant, "Give their squad a machine gun, double the amount of bullets and grenades, and have the guard platoon keep an eye on them."

"Yes, Commander."

Cao's four infantry armies and two heavy artillery brigades were fully prepared and built a battle line along the mountain terrain, waiting for the arrival of the Japanese.

"Deputy commander, deputy commander, the devils are coming!"

The chief of staff quickly came to Liang Yongfu and said, "According to the reconnaissance of the scouts, a large number of Japanese soldiers were found five kilometers ahead of our army, marching towards our Hanshan territory. There are also a large number of Japanese soldiers marching ten kilometers away, and a large number of Japanese soldiers in the front are fighting with friendly troops, delaying the evacuation of the two Japanese armies behind."

"How many people came?"

"Three divisions, plus a tank brigade."

"so much?"

Liang Yongfu frowned and said, "What is this imperial army doing? It is said that there are only 30,000 or 50,000 defeated Japanese troops! How can there be three complete divisions and a tank brigade? Damn it! Don't even mention that the imperial court's 400,000 troops can only contain 100,000 Japanese troops. No one would believe this if I tell anyone."

"Deputy Commander, do you want to fight or not?"

"beat!"

Liang Yongfu, wearing a light black general uniform, shouted with his big belly, "Let's do this first, let the imperial army see how our Cao army fights the Japs!"

At the front line, the first batch of evacuated Japanese troops had arrived at the Hanshan area, and one division after another, a tank brigade, began to engage in battle with Cao's soldiers.

"Da da da!"

The Japanese opened fire at full force. 99 armored tanks rushed forward quickly, and the 37mm tank guns and the machine gun platoon fired frantically at the Cao army's positions. Together with a reorganized infantry division, this put a lot of pressure on the Cao army, because the Cao army did not have a rocket launcher or other weapon to hit the Japanese tanks, so they could only use artillery bombing.

"fire!"

Two heavy artillery brigades, these are 75mm howitzers purchased by Cao's army from the United States. They were also affected by the Battle of Shanglu, so all major forces began to sell their belongings to buy heavy artillery.

92 howitzers began to launch fire attacks on the charging Japanese tanks and armored vehicles, and the Japanese artillery regiment also began to move out. All of a sudden, the battle began to enter a white-hot stage, and Cao's army used their positions to launch a shocking battle with the Japanese!
