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

Boom boom boom...

Artillery fire illuminated the dark night sky red. At the Duan Clan Headquarters in the capital, when many high-ranking generals were holding a meeting, intensive artillery fire was heard outside the window.

This sudden situation scared the veterans. They all looked out the window with their minds tensed, not knowing what was going on.

"Where's the sound of gunfire coming from?"

Duan Tianlin, who was already furious, shouted angrily after hearing the noisy noise outside.

"Boss, something happened, Boss!"

The secretary general stumbled over and as soon as he entered the room, he grabbed Lao Duan's arm and pulled him out.

"Feng's troops stationed in Beijing have somehow found their way right under our noses, and are now bombarding our headquarters."

"Boss, hurry up and get out of here. Let's go to the air-raid shelter and take shelter first!"

boom……

Wow…

Another shell struck, sending a fine layer of dust scattering from the roof.

Duan Tianlin, who was in a state of rage just a second ago, was so angry that he almost fainted after hearing the news. He raised his hand and threw a big punch on the secretary-general's face, shouting almost like a roar.

"What do you mean they suddenly appeared right under our noses? Where are the guards? They're all good-for-nothings and useless!"

"What's the point of me raising you guys?"

"Right now, immediately, take back this position. I'm not going anywhere. I'm waiting right here. If another shell falls, the entire Guard Division, including the commander-in-chief in Beijing, will be brought to me with their heads!"

"Yes, it's Boss. I'll go and pass on the order right away."

The secretary general covered his face and left the room in panic.

He was quite unlucky. He just came here to deliver a message, but got slapped in the face. The loss of the position had nothing to do with him.

"Boss, that son of a bitch Cao Xin is so shameless. He'll do anything to achieve his goals. This is a complete rift between us."

Xu Zhenlin was also extremely annoyed. His old face was extremely solemn and he cursed with gritted teeth.

"Since they are so unkind, don't blame us for being unjust. Notify the 49th Division and start an all-out war. I don't believe they can stay in this small piece of land in the capital for long!"

"Xu Jiumin, take your men and attack immediately!"

Duan Tianlin was already a little bit angry. He looked at his men not far away with angry eyes and gave orders.

"I don't ask you to attack Feng's headquarters, but the sound of this artillery should also ring in his ears."

"Yes, Mr. Duan, I guarantee that the task will be completed!"

Xu Jiumin immediately received the order, turned around and went straight to the staff headquarters to gather the troops to set off.

Since we are going to play, let’s have fun and see who can last until the end.

"Report, victory news from the front. The Northern Army has successfully breached the Canglan City defenses and is advancing triumphantly towards Tianjin!"

At the critical moment, the news from the front line injected everyone with a strong shot of stimulant.

Duan Tianlin, who had a gloomy face and no joy in the previous second, relaxed a little after hearing this and continued to ask.

"How's the situation in Fushui County?"

"Report, Fushui County has also been occupied by our troops, but according to the news from the front line, no trace of Colonel Zhang Ye has been found."

"What!?"

In the middle of the crowd, Huang Weize stood up nervously with a frown on his face.

"How could there be no trace? How could a living person just disappear like that?"

"Ask the front lines if anyone has been captured by the Seventh Division?"

Faced with a series of questions from his superior, the signalman was stunned for two or three seconds and then responded with great difficulty.

"According to the frontline, the enemy's 7th Division did not enter the city at all. And judging from the buildings in the city and the reactions of the people, there are no signs of a siege."

"What do you mean? What do you mean by that?"

Huang Weize was stunned. He leaned on the conference table with a frustrated expression and remained silent.

What do you mean there are no traces of siege?

So where did the previous news come from? Fushui County sent three consecutive telegrams asking for help, clearly indicating that a large force was attacking the city and they were about to be overwhelmed.

But now we go in and see that the people are gone, and the siege was just an illusion...

This is fucking bullshit!

For an entire night, nearly a hundred high-ranking generals from the Feng and Duan factions, and over a hundred thousand troops, engaged in battle, and you tell me there were no signs of a siege?!

Did he see a ghost?!

"Don't panic, Old Huang. This matter hasn't been clarified yet. Don't panic yet."

When Xu Zhenlin saw Huang Weize's distraught look, he hurried forward to comfort him.

"I think I figured out what's going on. It must be Feng's thief crying 'Catch the thief!'"

"They first kidnapped Zhang Ye and others, creating the illusion of a siege, hoping to provoke us into action, and then..."

Halfway through his story, Lao Xu couldn't continue.

According to his statement, Zhang Ye still cannot escape the suspicion of being a traitor. After all, the three telegrams for help were sent by him, and this cannot be false.

"Report! Urgent call from Donglu!"

Just when everyone was puzzled and couldn't figure out what was going on here, another signalman came running and reported anxiously.

"Ande, urgent message! Our Donglu defense line has been occupied by an unknown armed force, and they have now completed a complete blockade!"

"fart!!"

As soon as the news came out, the whole audience was in an uproar. Everyone in the room had an expression of disbelief on their faces and could not believe their ears at all.

The Donglu border defense line has been occupied by an unknown armed force! ?

What the hell is this nonsense? There is no third-party force within a radius of thousands of kilometers. Apart from the Duan faction and the Feng faction, where did this unknown armed force come from?!

"Explain to me clearly what unidentified armed forces are!"

Duan Tianlin grabbed the signalman's collar and felt that his head was empty and not enough at the moment.

They have occupied Donglu Province for a long time, and it is impossible for a second armed force to exist there. Saying that it was robbed by others at this time is just a lie!

"Boss, I, I also reported based on the telegram."

The signalman looked at his ferocious face and his legs were shaking with fear. He handed over the telegram tremblingly and explained.

"News from the Ande government says a group of men in green uniforms have forcibly seized the Donglu defense line and are rapidly advancing, intending to seize the entire Donglu province."

"Impossible, this is absolutely impossible!"

Duan Tianlin was a little confused at this time. He took the telegram and read it word by word, not believing the news coming from below at all.

They and the Feng family have occupied several northern provinces for many years. After so many years of operation and development, it is impossible for a third-party force to hide under their noses without being discovered.

Illusion, this is all an illusion!

This must be the work of the Feng clique. They're using these psychological tactics again!

It’s all fake, all fake!!
