The Republic of China: A Letter of Appointment Creates the Most Powerful Warlord

"Killed!" Zhang Ye's expression suddenly changed upon hearing these two words uttered by Lu Shan. His eyes revealed a hint of seriousness and tension. He stared at Lu Shan and asked, "We must not jump to conclusions about this matter rashly! We must not let any news leak out, lest it cause unnecessary panic and trouble. Immediately organize a comprehensive and in-depth investigation and get to the bottom of this matter!"

After saying that, Zhang Ye couldn't help but frown and pondered in his heart.

An ominous premonition hung over him like a dark cloud, making him feel cold.

He knew very well that Lu Shan had always been meticulous and quick-witted. Since he made such a guess, it was probably not groundless.

Quancheng is not too far from here. If you drive, it will only take four or five hours.

According to the current information, Jin Zaishan was seriously injured, and it was unlikely that those people would take the risk of transferring him to a remote mountain valley.

After all, the current situation is extremely complicated and turbulent, and any carelessness will lead to unpredictable consequences.

Anyone with a little bit of common sense would not choose to act rashly at this time, exposing such an important and unstable target to the enemy and bringing disaster upon themselves.

Thinking of this, Zhang Ye's mind moved, and he decisively issued an order: "Immediately notify the brothers below to be vigilant and strengthen their guard. Don't miss any signs of trouble! Also, I will not see anyone during this period. All matters will be handled by you."

As soon as he finished speaking, he slowly closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and tried to calm the emotions surging in his heart.

After a long while, as if he had made up his mind, Zhang Ye spoke again and issued a new order: "Once there is any accurate news about Jin Zaishan, whether good or bad, report it to me immediately! Also... prepare all emergency measures, just in case."

At this moment, Zhang Ye could clearly feel an invisible pressure coming towards him like an overwhelming force. The sense of crisis became stronger and stronger, as if a ferocious beast was opening its bloody mouth, ready to devour him at any time.

If Jin Zaishan really died, he must act decisively and without hesitation - escape!

Do everything you can to escape from this dangerous place, and run as fast as possible, the farther the better!

Because only in this way can I save my life.

……

At twelve o'clock noon, the sun shone directly down, enveloping the entire rebel headquarters in a scorching heat.

However, at this time, Jin Junli did not feel the impact of the heat at all.

Because he had not slept all night, his eyes were bloodshot and his expression was a little haggard, but his eyes were still as sharp as an eagle.

At this moment, Jin Junli was leading a large group of generals sitting around a huge conference table, studying the new combat plan nervously and attentively.

The table was covered with various maps, documents and intelligence materials. People were whispering to each other from time to time, discussing the development of the situation in low voices.

Starting from the latter half of last night, the sound of intense shelling filled the night sky.

After a whole night of observation and analysis, it was obvious that the enemy had gradually fallen into a state of weakness.

The long-term, high-intensity bombing and the continuous war of attrition have caused their ammunition reserves to be seriously insufficient, and in some places it has even become difficult to maintain normal firepower output.

This discovery is undoubtedly good news and exciting for the rebels who are currently at a disadvantage.

The biggest gap between them and the enemy has always been in long-range artillery.

If they could take this opportunity to render the enemy's artillery positions completely ineffective, their hopes of achieving ultimate victory would increase exponentially.

Thinking of this, Jin Junli slammed the table vigorously and pointed to the detailed defense map in front of him. He said, "We must seize the time and continue digging trenches. We must connect all the defense lines that have not yet been completely penetrated! Form an indestructible defensive fortification. At the same time, we must fully utilize our personnel advantages and organize small-scale forces to carry out uninterrupted harassing attacks on the enemy's frontline positions. We must not give them any chance to breathe or relax!"

After saying this, he couldn't help but rub his eyes, which had already become sore, and his voice sounded a little hoarse due to excessive fatigue.

Although he was extremely tired, Jin Junli always believed in his heart that the battle had reached this point. Not only were they exhausted, but the enemy on the opposite side must not be in much better condition. They might also be struggling and at the end of their strength.

As long as everyone grits their teeth and perseveres, victory will eventually belong to the brave and fearless resistance fighters!

Now, they have an absolute advantage in numbers and can easily carry out harassment operations against the enemy continuously for 24 hours.

This kind of non-stop harassment is like a sharp knife, constantly provoking the enemy's sensitive nerves, trying to make the enemy fall into a state of exhaustion and anxiety.

Judging from the current battle situation, the other side is obviously no longer as anxious as they were yesterday.

Not only did the originally fierce artillery attack come to an abrupt halt, but even the attacking echelon began to gradually slow down its advance.

The chief of staff stood in front of the battle map, his brows tightly furrowed, his face full of confusion.

His sharp eyes fixed on the enemy's position marked on the map, and he secretly speculated, "Could it be that our army's ability to quickly return to defend has put tremendous pressure on them, forcing them to slow down their attack and wait for reinforcements?"

After hearing the chief of staff's speculation, Jin Junli, who was standing by, shook his head slightly, indicating that he did not agree with this point of view.

Just as he was about to speak his opinion, before he could finish his words, he suddenly saw the highest commander of the front line stumbling and crawling towards him.

Before he even stepped into the house, he let out a shrill howl in his voice, which had become hoarse from excessive shouting: "Little Prince! Something terrible has happened, Little Prince!!"
