Warlords: Conquer the world from the county magistrate

When Fang Weian's troops, in cooperation with Wei Hanzhou's special forces team, cleared the guards at the city gates and on the city walls, their actions were not yet discovered by Ma Jincen's troops.

Afterwards, Fang Weian discussed with Fang Weijia: "Weijia, your troops will be divided into four groups."

"Send three battalions to seize the remaining three city gates and guard the north gate. My troops will attack the Governor's Mansion directly."

"Okay." Fang Weijia did not fight for it and just said one word.

The troops acted quickly. Fang Wei's three battalions attacked the remaining three city gates respectively, and Fang Weian led a regiment towards the Governor's Mansion.

The movement of the large army naturally attracted the attention of the troops near the north of the city.

"Da da da……"

The few hundred remaining soldiers of Fang Wei's family engaged in a firefight with the cavalry who came to investigate the situation.

Although they quickly defeated the enemy, Fang Weijia looked very solemn, fearing that the enemy would be on guard and the troops would suffer heavy losses.

Just after defeating an enemy company, only ten minutes later, the enemy's large force appeared.

"Prepare for battle." Fang Weijia said seriously.

The North Gate garrison camp was not far from the North Gate. Together with the soldiers on the North Gate wall, there was a total of one regiment, fifteen hundred people.

The leader of this regiment was a subordinate of Ma Jinwei. He said with red eyes: "Quick, charge forward and drive the enemy out of the city."

Although the enemy had more than a thousand people, not to mention their backward equipment and insufficient training, these forced men had no fighting spirit. After leaving behind two hundred bodies, these soldiers chose to retreat.

"Whoever dares to retreat again, I will kill him." The regiment commander shot a retreating soldier with one shot and said viciously.

Before the captain could say anything else, he was hit by a stray bullet from Fang Wei's troops and fell to the ground.

When the soldiers nearby saw the commander being shot dead, they dropped their weapons and shouted, "The commander has been shot dead. Run!"

"Run." Upon hearing the shout, most of the remaining soldiers dropped their weapons and ran away.

On the other side, Fang Weian's troops arrived near the Governor's Mansion. He ordered: "The first and second battalions will build positions to resist the enemy's reinforcements."

"The Third Battalion, the Special Forces Company, and the Machine Gun Company will attack the Governor's Mansion together."

It was impossible for all the regiments protecting Ma Jincen to live in the governor's mansion. At this time, there was only one company in the mansion.

Ma Jincen came to the living room in dishevel and asked the battalion commander on duty, "What happened?"

"From the noise, it seems that the enemy is attacking the city. I have already sent people to investigate the situation." The battalion commander did not dare to hide anything and told the truth.

Ma Jincen had an ugly look on his face, and was a little frightened inside.

"Clap clap clap..."

Suddenly, gunshots were heard not far away. Ma Jincen asked unhappily, "Where are the gunshots coming from?"

"Battalion commander, commander-in-chief, something bad has happened. The enemy is attacking." A soldier came in hurriedly and reported.

Hearing this report, Ma Jincen was immediately at a loss: "How is it possible? How did Fang's bandits get into the city?"

"Gather the soldiers in the mansion to stop the enemy's attack." Seeing Ma Jincen like this, the battalion commander still gave orders to the soldiers diligently.

Fang Weian personally led the attack and quickly rushed into the gate of the Governor's Mansion, engaging in a firefight with the guards of the Governor's Mansion in the yard.

"Throw a grenade."

Under Fang Weian's orders, dozens of grenades were thrown into the yard and corridors, and the Ma Jun guards suffered heavy losses.

At this moment, the battalion commander gathered the remaining soldiers in the mansion for support. Ma Jincen's guard company had 150 people, but nearly fifty of them were killed in the previous confrontation, and many of the remaining people were injured.

"Let the enemy in and fight. Hold on, reinforcements will be here soon." The battalion commander said while firing.

Although the guards in the mansion were brave, they kept falling under the grenades and submachine guns.

After holding out for more than ten minutes, the battalion commander had no choice but to retreat to the hall behind him as the number of soldiers around him gradually decreased. Fang Wei'an's troops killed the last few soldiers who held out and also chased after them.

Seeing the battalion commander running in alone, Ma Jincen stood up and asked, "How is it? Has the enemy been repelled?"

"Snapped."

The battalion commander had just caught his breath and was shot dead before he could say a word. A group of soldiers rushed in and surrounded Ma Jincen.

Seeing the battalion commander's brains splattered on the ground, Ma Jincen was immediately terrified and felt a bit of fear in his heart. Although he had killed many people, he was also afraid of death.

"Don't shoot, I surrender, I surrender." Ma Jincen raised his hands and said tremblingly.

Fang Weian walked into the mansion and had Ma Jincen taken away. He did not have time to count the property in the mansion, but said, "Follow me to support the first and second battalions."

While attacking the Governor's Mansion, reinforcements from Ma Jincen's Guard Regiment had already arrived nearby and had engaged in a firefight with soldiers from the first and second battalions on the periphery.

Fang Wei's first battalion easily captured the west gate and let the 2nd Regiment of the 1st Division and the 2nd Regiment of the 2nd Division into Nanling.

Wang Ming and Liu Changyi looked at each other, and Wang Ming said, "I'll go to the east gate."

"I'm going to the South Gate." Liu Changyi also smiled.

The two men's idea was simple, to let the main force of their division into the city first.

The East Gate and the South Gate were defended by Zheng Zhifan's troops. Zheng Zhifan's troops were relatively elite. Although Fang Wei's two battalions caused a lot of casualties to the two defending troops, they still failed to get close to the city wall.

As gunshots were heard in the city, the soldiers at the East Gate and South Gate became alert.

In the military camp near the east gate, Zheng Zhifan looked at the messenger in front of him with an uncertain expression.

The messenger was sent by the East Gate to ask for help. The troops at the East Gate suffered heavy losses and are under great pressure. Please ask Zheng Zhifan to send reinforcements.

"You go down first." Zheng Zhifan waved away the messenger, with a thousand thoughts in his mind.

The chief of staff saw this and stepped forward and asked in a low voice: "Commander, what do you want?"

"Fang Jian's troops have entered the city, and our army cannot stop them." Wang Rong's troops were defeated, and Zheng Zhifan could not stop Fang Jian's confidence.

"If I surrender now, I might be able to keep my position as division commander. If all my troops are wiped out, the other side won't take me seriously even if I want to surrender."

Hearing that Zheng Zhifan wanted to surrender, the chief of staff breathed a sigh of relief. It was obvious that Ma Jincen was finished, and he didn't want to be buried with him.

It was not so easy for Zheng Zhifan to surrender. First, he had to consider whether the leaders of the regiments below agreed, and secondly, whether Fang Jian would accept it.

After thinking for a while, Zheng Zhifan said to the chief of staff: "Old Li, how about you go find the enemy officers and negotiate surrender with them?"

"Commander, it's so chaotic outside. We don't even know how many enemy troops have entered the city. How can we find their officers?" the chief of staff asked in embarrassment.

While Zheng Zhifan was thinking about countermeasures, the 2nd Regiment of the 1st Division and the 2nd Regiment of the 2nd Division arrived at the East Gate and South Gate respectively.

With the addition of soldiers from two regiments, the East Gate and South Gate were quickly captured, and the remaining defenders chose to surrender.

As the 1st Regiment of the 1st Division and the 1st Regiment of the 2nd Division entered the city, the battle ended at dawn. Guard Regiment Commander Ma Jincen committed suicide and the remaining guards surrendered.

Surrounded by three regiments, most of Zheng Zhifan's troops chose to surrender.

Nanling City was also captured.
