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

"So, let's arrange for the Third Legion to be stationed there. If there's any movement in Fengbei, we can respond in advance."

Duan Tianlin could not let down his guard against Lao Zhang, and finally decided to activate the defense forces of the capital to deploy defenses.

Otherwise, he was really afraid that the Fengbei Army would attack from both sides, and by then, everything would be over.

On the other side, the Feng faction’s Beijing command post was thirty kilometers away from the Duan faction’s headquarters.

After Lao Feng's death, Cao Xin temporarily took over the command of the troops.

Now, the two sides are fighting fiercely, but he, the commander-in-chief, is completely confused and still hasn't figured out why the fight started.

dong dong dong...

In the quiet conference room, all the generals of Feng's faction looked very depressed and frustrated.

He was still awake in the middle of the night when he received the news of General Feng's death. He hurried to the official residence and busied himself with dealing with all the matters. Before they could catch their breath, news of war came from Fushui again.

They were very busy that day.

More importantly, everyone in this battle was confused. Both sides opened fire in confusion, and even now, they still haven't figured out the reason.

"General Cao, battle reports from the front line. The Duan faction's Donglu border defense forces have all set out and are heading straight for our Canglan positions. The attack is fierce, and the frontline positions are constantly sending requests for assistance."

"Report, the Seventh Division is under siege by the Eastern Shandong West Route Army. Both sides have engaged in multiple rounds of artillery fire outside Fushui County. Our army has suffered heavy casualties. Division Commander Shi Gaoming requests support!"

"Report, our 50,000-strong Zhongzhou army has assembled and is ready to march at any time!"

Battle reports flew in like snowflakes, making the atmosphere in the conference room even more solemn.

As the newly-elected leader of the Feng Clan, Cao Xin lit a cigar, sat in the first seat, hesitated for a moment, and then spoke in a deep voice.

"Now that the war has begun, Duan Tianlin, that bastard, has taken advantage of our army's dire situation to use despicable means to frame and slander us. This is truly despicable."

"Since they are unkind, don't blame us for being unjust."

"Boss Cao, these country dogs should have been dealt with long ago. They really thought that after two days in the city, they could wash away the earthy smell on their bodies. They are all a bunch of people who don't look like princes even if they wear dragon robes."

"That's right, Mr. Cao. These peasants have become shameless. There's no need to be polite to them anymore. We must take this opportunity to severely curb their arrogance!"

This group of Feng's officers, relying on the faction's long-term occupation of Zhili Province, considered themselves to be extraordinary and looked down upon everyone else as a country bumpkin.

In the past, when both parties were on good terms, they would simply disguise themselves for the sake of face. But now that their relationship has fallen out, there is no need to be polite anymore and they will just poke people in the heart.

"We must fight, but this battle should not last too long."

Cao Xin had the idea of ​​taking action a long time ago, and no matter what the reason was for the Duan family to take action, it was good news for him.

"Old Wu..." Cao Xin looked at the middle-aged general on his right at the conference table and instructed, "Arrange someone to discuss this with Fengbei. The world is already in chaos enough. We can't continue a war that will last for years just for our own selfish interests."

"Okay Mr. Cao, I understand what you mean."

Wu Zhongwen was also a seasoned man, and when he heard about contacting Fengbei, he understood what it meant.

This is to attack from both front and back and give Duan Xi, this country dog, a good beating.

"Boss Cao, shouldn't we change our thinking?"

When everyone was silent, Feng Yuxuan blinked his eyes, put on a cunning smile, and suggested.

"The fighting down there has been a chaotic mess for a day or two with no clear winner. How about we change the direction of our attack and go straight to their lair?"

"Um!?"

Cao Xin, who was still studying how to cooperate with the Fengbei Army, was shocked and deeply touched when he heard this idea. At the same time, he quietly glanced at everyone in the room, wanting to see what they thought through their reactions.

"General Feng, this idea of ​​yours is fucking genius!"

As Cao Xin's cousin, Cao Zheng was the first to stand up and support this "beheading plan."

Compared with cooperation with Fengbei, this idea is extremely convenient.

If it can be successfully implemented, there will be no need to continue this war. The Duan group can be disintegrated in one day, their base can be directly bombed, and all the senior generals can be killed.

If the subordinates don't receive combat orders from their superiors, who would be so stupid as to continue working hard?

"Yes, this is indeed a good idea. If it can be successfully implemented, then there will be no need to continue this war. It will also be a great thing for the people below."

"Yes, I agree. We're only thirty kilometers away from the Duan faction's headquarters. We can deploy a heavy artillery regiment and quietly advance about twenty kilometers under cover of darkness to achieve full coverage."

"Done, this is a fucking brilliant idea. Both sides are arranging their troops at this time, and they certainly didn't expect there would be a surprise attack planned tonight."

The generals highly approved of the "decapitation plan" and felt that it was the most appropriate time to launch it, and that no one would have thought of it.

After all, the war between the two sides had just started and had not yet reached the point of red-eyed fighting, so they had never considered killing each other at all.

But when Feng Yuxuan's proposal came up, everyone had to admit that the current situation had entered a life-and-death situation.

In that case, there's no point in being polite. It's better to solve this problem early and destroy your headquarters with two salvos.

Let’s see what you use to attack tomorrow!

……

Twelve o'clock in the morning, at the Fengbei Marshal's Mansion.

Marshal Zhang, the King of Fengbei, who had already fallen asleep, hurriedly got up with the help of his concubine and rushed to the office to hold an emergency meeting.

When he learned that Feng and Duan were fighting, the old man was happier than during the Chinese New Year. His eyes narrowed into slits, and he wanted to fire a few shots in the middle of the night to celebrate his joy.

Damn it, he has been waiting for this day for several years. Ever since Old Yuan came to power, he has been wondering when Old Zhang would be able to sit on the throne for two days.

He originally thought that he might not have such an opportunity in his lifetime, but Old Yuan died after only a few days in office, and every president who came to power also stepped down after a year or two. It was obvious that they could not suppress the dragon's energy.

Lao Zhang is extremely confident about this. He feels that no one in the world is more suitable for that position than himself.

The reason why it hasn't been his turn yet is simply because he lacks an opportunity.

Now, the opportunity has come to him, how can he not be happy!
