Under the first wave of attacks from the company's twenty-seven submachine guns and hundreds of AK47 rifles, the opposing side lost seventy or eighty people.

Sudden attack, the opposing troops did not retaliate at first, but instead hurriedly sought cover.

Zhang Sheng, who was commanding from the rear, shouted, "Throw grenades."

After the grenade bombing, there was another round of chaos on the opposite side. Because of the dense formation, sixty or seventy people were killed or injured by the grenade.

After three rounds of grenade attacks and continuous submachine gun attacks, the enemy was left with more than 200 corpses. The rest of the people finally found shelter and avoided the attacks of Francis Xavier's men.

The battalion commander led a dozen soldiers and hid under the ridge of a field on the side of the road. He used the ridge as a cover and directed the soldiers to shoot at Francis Xavi's troops on the road.

From the time Tao Yunong ordered the attack to the time Duan Chenglian's troops dodged the counterattack, it was only a dozen seconds before hundreds of corpses fell to the ground.

"Fang Jian's troops are so elite? And their firepower is so strong?" Wang Fuyuan was shocked when he saw this.

After thinking for a while, Wang Fuyuan was relieved. If the troops were not elite and the firepower was not strong, how could Fang Ji'an defeat Ma Jincen?

At this time, he also believed what Fang Jian said about the small number of troops. The troops were so elite and equipped with such powerful firepower. If there were tens of thousands of people, which warlord could stop them?

Seeing that all the enemies had taken shelter under the ridges, Zhang Sheng shouted, "Groups of six, advance tactically."

The attacking soldiers quickly dispersed into thirty teams, with three riflemen searching forward, a submachine gunner in the middle, and two at the back holding grenades.

When seeing an enemy showing up, first shoot with rifles, then fill in with machine guns. If the enemy has more people, throw grenades.

After another ten minutes of fighting, more than a hundred enemies were killed again.

Because the two sides were not far apart, there was no strategic depth and the battalion commander who led the team fought very uncomfortably.

"Brothers on the other side, it's a misunderstanding, all misunderstanding. Don't shoot, we will take the delegation back and leave." The battalion commander shouted while hiding behind the ridge of the field.

Zhang Sheng didn't care whether it was a misunderstanding or not. They had already exchanged fire, and he had to give an explanation, so he also shouted, "Drop your weapons and come out to surrender."

"Director Tao, my father is the prime minister, you have to think it over carefully. How about we just let this matter go and let me go?" Duan Chenglian also said loudly while hiding behind the ridge of the field.

Tao Yunong hid behind the car and ignored Duan Chenglian. Zhang Sheng knew what he meant and shouted, "Attack."

"Brothers, don't shoot, we surrender, surrender." After dozens of people were killed, the battalion commander had to put down his gun and raise his hands.

There were more than thirty people who surrendered with the battalion commander. Zhang Sheng had the surrendered people taken to the rear and commanded the troops to surround Duan Chenglian from three directions.

Seeing that the troops were only a dozen meters away from Duan Chenglian's hiding place, Zhang Sheng said, "Master Duan, come out and surrender, or we will throw grenades."

Although there were more than thirty surrenders, Duan Chenglian still had dozens of soldiers and twenty guards around him.

If a real exchange of fire occurs, there will definitely be casualties. If Duan Chenglian is not sensible, Zhang Sheng will definitely let his subordinates throw grenades to reduce casualties.

Duan Chenglian, who was hiding behind the second ridge, was very conflicted. On the one hand, he thought that the other party would not throw a grenade, but on the other hand, he was worried about what to do if the other party threw a grenade.

"Charge out." When Zhang Sheng started counting three, two, one, Duan Chenglian ordered the guards around him.

The guards around him are all elite, and he is followed by dozens of soldiers. As long as he can stop the enemy's offensive, he can lead his men to retreat, and he will be safe when he retreats into the county town.

When the dozen or so guards around Duan Chenglian just stood up, they were hit by fire from three directions, and five or six of them fell down immediately.

Zhang Sheng said without hesitation: "Throw the grenade."

Seeing the grenade flying towards him, Duan Chenglian was stunned by fear. The two guards around him hurriedly threw him to the ground and pinned him down under them.

"Slow down, stop, don't throw grenades." Seeing that Zhang Sheng's troops were really throwing grenades, Wang Fuyuan quickly stood up and shouted.

Unfortunately, Wang Fuyuan's reminder was too late and the grenade had already been thrown. Wang Fuyuan sighed helplessly and could only hope that Duan Chenglian was lucky enough to be safe and sound under the grenade.

Although this incident was Duan Chenglian's fault, if Duan Chenglian died here, Fang Jian would also be held responsible, which would inevitably cause Duan Chengrui's dissatisfaction and also damage the prestige of the northern government.

By then, even if Li Bingqing wanted to save Fang Jian, he would also consider the attitudes of other warlords and senior government military officials.

Although there are many warlords in the Northern Government, it has 500,000 troops in the capital or in places directly under the government. This is also the confidence that the Northern Government can suppress the warlords.

A burst of grenade explosions sounded, and the soldiers behind the first ridge stood up and surrendered with their hands raised without hesitation.

Zhang Sheng quickly led his men across the first ridge, crossed a distance of five or six meters, came to the second ridge, and pointed his guns at the bottom of the ridge.

There were still seven or eight intact soldiers at the foot of the field, as well as a dozen injured soldiers and guards who were groaning.

Zhang Sheng waved his hand: "Clean up the battlefield, capture prisoners, and treat the wounded."

Another soldier turned over the bodies of the two guards, revealing Duan Chenglian who was protected underneath the bodies.

"Don't shoot, don't shoot, I surrender, I surrender." Duan Chenglian was frightened and hurriedly held his head and begged for mercy.

Seeing this, Zhang Sheng shook his head in disdain. He was another bully who only feared the strong and bullied the weak.

When Duan Chenglian was invited up, Tao Yunong had lost interest in mocking him. What was there to brag about in catching such a waste?

At this moment, Wang Fuyuan stepped forward and said hesitantly, "Director Tao, um, Mr. Duan..."

"Secretary Wang, weren't you taken away? Why are you back again?" Although he still greeted Wang Fuyuan with a smile, Tao Yunong's attitude became much more formal.

"Luckily you left early. A group of bandits attacked us. It was very dangerous."

Looking at Tao Yunong talking nonsense in a serious manner, Wang Fuyuan sighed slightly. It would be very difficult to save Duan Chenglian since this man could talk nonsense in front of him.

Wang Fuyuan asked with a serious face: "Director Tao, how are you going to deal with Master Duan?"

"Mr. Duan, what Mr. Duan? Didn't Mr. Duan leave? I remember he was picked up by people from Sanjiang Province."

Then Tao Yunong seemed to have just reacted, pointed at Duan Chenglian and said, "Secretary Wang, you wouldn't say this person is Mr. Duan, right?"

"Don't joke. This man is a robber we caught. We haven't figured out his identity yet. We need to report this to the commander and let him handle this matter."

Wang Fuyuan was stunned by Tao Yunong's serious words. Looking at the other party's expression and acting skills, if he had not experienced it himself and Duan Chenglian was right next to him, he would have believed it.

"Secretary Wang, Mr. Duan's purpose this time is not simple." Tao Yunong then changed the subject.

"I think it's not difficult for you to see that he intends to undermine the relationship between our commander and the president. His intentions are sinister."

"Although on the surface Duan Chengrui is on the same side as the President, we must be on guard against his true inner thoughts and whether he has other intentions."

Hearing this, Wang Fuyuan was suddenly shocked and couldn't help but think of all the abnormal things that Duan Chenglian had done along the way.
