Then Fang Jianan ordered Fang Guoxuan: "Arrange the soldiers to board the car."

The soldiers quickly boarded the trucks, and the convoy drove towards Changhuan City. The trucks maintained a speed of 60 kilometers per hour. It only took two or three hours to reach Changhuan City.

In Fang Jian'an's private car, Wei Hanzhou was driving, Fang Guoxuan was sitting in the passenger seat, and Wang Hu and Fang Jian'an were sitting in the back seat.

"Guoxuan, send someone with ten trucks to Changhuan City in the name of delivering military supplies," Fang Jian ordered.

"Try to take Changhuan City by surprise. If not, withdraw and wait for the main force to arrive before attacking again."

"Yes." Fang Guoxuan couldn't help but laugh. In Nanshan Province, every time a city was captured, it was a surprise attack, and there was no failure in capturing the city.

It was unknown how long this trick would last, or when it would become ineffective. Siege warfare was not easy to fight. However, they had howitzers, so it was very easy to blast open the city gate.

Two hours later, the convoy stopped ten kilometers away from Changhuan City.

Fang Guoxuan instructed Xie Yuan: "The mission of capturing the city is now handed over to you. If it is impossible, return immediately."

"Captain, don't worry, we will complete the mission." Xie Yuan saluted.

Zhang Sheng complained: "The leader is biased. Only I, Zhang, am the most suitable person for this kind of mission."

In response, Fang Tianming smiled and said nothing beside Zhang Sheng.

Similarly, Wei Hanzhou also shouted in dissatisfaction beside the car: "Commander, shouldn't we send our special operations team to deal with this kind of situation?"

"Letting these unprofessionals capture the city will alert the enemy, what if that happens?"

Fang Jian also felt quite troubled. Wei Hanzhou was capable, but compared with Wang Hu, he was not as calm and composed as Wang Hu and tended to act more impulsively.

Fang Jian advised: "Be careful in Changhuan City, why would you need to take action?"

"You will have to fight hard, bitter and fierce battles in the future. I'm just afraid that you don't dare and can't stand the cruelty."

Wei Hanzhou curled his lips in disdain: "No matter how difficult the battle is, Commander, you arrange it for me, Old Wei. If I say no, I'm not a man."

Fang Jian and Wang Hu looked at each other and couldn't help but laugh.

"The attacking convoy will set off first, and we will set off in fifteen minutes." After making all the arrangements, Fang Jian said to Fang Guoxuan.

Xie Yuan sat in the first truck and led the trucks behind it towards Changhuan City.

Jiang Nansheng, the commander of the Changhuan City garrison, was of average ability, but much stronger than other warlords' officers. He not only managed Changhuan City's public security in an orderly manner, but also repelled the attack of the northern government the year before last.

When the convoy was still several hundred meters away from the city gate, the soldiers on the tower had already spotted it, and the platoon leader of the defending army immediately shouted loudly: "Be on guard."

The soldiers immediately brought up chevaux de frise to block the road in front of the city gate. More than a dozen soldiers poured out from the city gate and stood guard outside the gate. The soldiers on the city wall also raised their rifles.

"The reaction is quite quick." Xie Yuan said coldly when he saw the movement on the city wall from afar.

Although the soldiers on the city wall were on alert, Xie Yuan did not give up his plan to capture the city. Instead, if the convoy stopped or turned around and left now, people would suspect that he had ulterior motives.

Xie Yuan knocked on the back carriage and said, "We'll act according to circumstances. If the other party doesn't let us go, we'll attack immediately."

The first truck stopped when it was only five or six meters away from the barricade, and the trucks behind it also stopped one after another.

Xie Yuan calmly got down from the passenger seat, took a few steps forward and said, "Brother, we are Commander Han's men, and we are here to deliver supplies to you."

"Deliver supplies?" The officer guarding the city frowned.

He didn't know whether what the man said was true or not, but this group of people were driving large trucks, there were quite a few of them, and they came from Nanshan Province, so the officer couldn't help but believe it a little.

But the uniform this man was wearing was somewhat different from that of their troops. He wondered, "Where did Commander Han get so many cars?"

"These cars belong to the governor. The governor lent the trucks to the division commander to transport supplies for you." Xie Yuan smiled.

The officer was even more confused: "Why didn't the governor send someone himself?"

"Division Commander Zhu Yaoxiang is causing chaos, and the military governor is sending troops to suppress him." Xie Yuan said, pretending to sigh.

"The governor mobilized three divisions, but they were all blocked by Zhu Yaoxiang. The governor was busy suppressing the rebellion, so he assigned the task of delivering supplies to our division commander."

These half-true and half-false words alleviated some of the officer's suspicions.

The officer walked out of the antlers hesitantly and said, "Can I check and see if there are any supplies?"

"No problem, come with me, they are all weapons and ammunition." Xie Yuan had a smile on his face and was preparing to take the officer to check the carriage.

The officer did not suspect anything and followed him to the first carriage, which was blocked by a tarpaulin.

While the officer was trying to pull open the tarpaulin, Xie Yuan covered the officer's mouth with one hand and took out a dagger with the other hand and gently slashed the officer's neck. The officer twitched a few times and then died.

Although Xie Yuan's fighting ability was only two stars, this officer's fighting ability was not strong either, and it was a sneak attack, so he was able to succeed easily.

"Hurry, get out of the car quickly and prepare for the attack." Xie Yuan ordered.

Five or six soldiers holding submachine guns in the carriage jumped out and hid behind the carriage to avoid the sight of the soldiers on the city wall.

Xie Yuan also took a submachine gun. He took a deep breath, counted to three in his mind, and suddenly shouted, "Charge."

As soon as he finished speaking, Xie Yuan rushed out and fired at the soldiers under the city wall with a submachine gun.

Several soldiers who had just jumped out of the car also rushed out with submachine guns and opened fire to relieve Xie Yuan's pressure.

After the gunshots, the soldiers in the carriages jumped out and started fighting. The soldiers in the rear cars also jumped out of the cars under the guidance of the gunshots and prepared to fight.

The soldiers under the city wall were shot and several were killed by Xie Yuan's surprise attack. Gunshots rang out under the city wall, and the guards on the city wall also raised their weapons and fired at the people below.

In a burst of gunfire, more than a dozen guards under the city wall were all killed, and two soldiers from the third battalion were also hit by the guards on the city wall, one killed and one injured.

Fortunately, the soldiers on the city wall were all holding old rifles, without automatic firepower and weak attack power, otherwise the soldiers of the Third Battalion would definitely have suffered heavy losses.

After killing the guards under the city wall, Xie Yuan led his men to fire at the city wall, making most of the guards on the wall dare not show their heads.

More and more soldiers came down, and the firepower became stronger and stronger. Xie Yuan ordered: "Charge into the city."

Suddenly, a dozen soldiers holding submachine guns and light machine guns moved towards the city wall, and the rest continued to shoot at the city wall.

Xie Yuan led nearly 300 people in this raid, and the automatic firepower of the Guards Regiment was all concentrated in the assault team. Therefore, everyone was holding a submachine gun or a light machine gun.

A dozen soldiers who entered the city gate fired at the soldiers behind the city wall and guarded the city gate to prevent the other side from closing the city gate.

"Go and remove the barricades." Seeing that the soldiers were guarding the city gate, Xie Yuan ordered several soldiers around him.
