The route of the Mixed Brigade was to send troops from the Sichuan Prefecture area and move towards the Jiangzhou area, and then take the newly built light rail train from Jiangzhou to the eighth District.

In this way, the time for the Mixed Brigade to arrive at the battlefield will be greatly shortened, but even so, it will march for nearly three days in a row before getting off the train and reorganizing the army at a distance of 200 kilometers from Xinyang.

...

It's past eight o'clock in the evening.

The guards of the brigade headquarters quickly set up a temporary command center. Then Qin Yu, Li Zhan, Daya, Li Shihong, Ou Xiaobin, Ruan Ming, Qi Lin, who had just been transferred back from the southwest line, and a large group of brigade staff members gathered together to hold a station meeting.

"What's going on now?" Qin Yu asked with his hands behind his back.

"The main force of the Gu family, the First Army, and the other two divisions, with a total force of more than 50,000, controlling the two urban areas of Hucha and Qufu, are advancing towards Xinyang and Yanbei." Li Zhan summarized the information he had, and pointed to the projection on the wall with an infrared pen and introduced: "The division of Commander Teng broke the garrison brigade in one day, but was then counterattacked by the Self-Defense Army. The two sides were in a stalemate, and the artillery battle alone took three rounds."

Qin Yu looked solemn: "Teacher Teng's troops also have 15,000 troops, and their combat effectiveness is quite strong. The Self-Defense Force can block him for more than two days, which is a bit unexpected."

"Yes, the Self-Defense Forces have a very determined attitude to protect Yanbei." Li Zhan nodded: "And the execution ability, combat ability, and weapons and equipment are different from what we expected, very strong!"

"Damn it seems that the party and government have not spent any resources on the self-defense army in recent years." Qin Yu looked back at the newly formed sand table: "If Commander Teng cannot take over the self-defense army in a short period of time, then our mission is likely to be to cross Xinyang and attack Yanbei from the side."

"Yes." Li Zhan nodded: "But Xinyang..."

"What's wrong with Xinyang?" Qi Lin asked.

"All the Lin family's troops were transferred to Xinyang!" Li Zhan glanced at Qin Yu and said bluntly: "If we want to leave here and encounter the Lin family's obstruction, then... we have to open fire."

When everyone in the conference room heard this, their expressions were strange. On the contrary, Qin Yu had no emotional fluctuations and said lightly: "The Lin family's troops should not open fire in a hurry."

When Li Zhan heard this, he immediately opened the topic: "If we take a detour from Xinyang and march into Yanbei, we are likely to encounter the newly incorporated mercenary groups of the Self-Defense Army, which has more than 30,000 troops."

"More than 30,000 people can't be left to us to fight." Daya interrupted: "I guess Uncle Gu Er will transfer someone to come over and let us assist in the attack."

"It should be like this." Li Zhan nodded in agreement.

Qin Yu held the desk with both hands and said in a concise manner: "Then let's use this mercenary group as an imaginary enemy first, and come up with an offensive plan for me before ordering me."

"Okay!" the generals nodded.

...

The headquarters of the Qufu area, the Eighth District War Zone 1 was temporarily moved here to avoid being counterattacked by the enemy.

In the wartime command room, Gu Taixian sat on a chair, tilted his head, and dripped his eyes with eye drops. From the start of the war, he has been sleeping for no more than three hours. He has been staying up late and fighting hard, but he can't stand it anymore. He has conjunctivitis, and his eyes are red and swollen like a steamed bun.

"Chief."

The staff officer came over from the side and asked softly: "You are fine, are you going to let me go?"

"It's okay." Gu Taixian put down the medicine bottle and frowned and asked, "How is Fat Teng's attack?"

"Not ideal." The staff officer shook his head and responded: "The combat effectiveness of the Self-Defense Army is much stronger than that of the garrison brigade. It fights tenaciously, and only defends within the fortifications and does not fight outside. Therefore, it is very uncomfortable for Fat Teng to be in a strong attack position. More than 10,000 people have been injured and more than 4,000 people have been injured alone. The hospital of the First Army has now been filled, and the logistics side is urgently building an outdoor ward in the hospital."

Gu Taixian paused for a moment, and just as he was about to reply, his private cell phone rang. He looked down at the caller ID and walked to the side with the phone: "Hey? Yes, well, Fatty Teng is a little blocked from attacking...!"

The staff officer stood aside, not following closely, just waiting quietly.

Gu Taixian made a phone call for two or three minutes before stepping back and asked bluntly: "Where is Tan Zhongshu's troops now?"

"He ordered the division headquarters to move to Hucha's position and was waiting for the order!" The staff officer replied truthfully.

"Send an order, let her lead troops up and assist Fatty Teng to attack the Self-Defense Army." Gu Taixian made the order.

"Okay!" The consultant nodded.

"Also, has Qin Yu's troops arrived?" Gu Taixian asked.

"It has arrived." The staff officer nodded and replied: "They have already met with the battalion I sent in outside Xinyang."

"Okay, I understand. You go and arrange for Tan Zhongshu." Gu Taixian waved his hand.

"Yes!" The consultant left.

Gu Taixian sat at the desk again, thought for a while, and then contacted Qin Yu.

...

Mixed brigade and brigade department.

Qin Yu picked up the encrypted military phone, put his hips on his hips and said, "Yes, we have arrived."

"Do you need some repair?" Gu Taixian asked.

"No, you can join the battle at any time." Qin Yu replied in a concise manner.

"Okay, then go to the battlefield."

"Where is our army's target?" Qin Yu asked.

"The target of your army is Guo Yu's new army." Gu Taixian immediately gave instructions: "His army has more than 30,000 people, two divisions and one brigade. My task is to hold him on the north side of Yanbei and prevent him from entering the battlefield!"

When Qin Yu heard this, his pressure increased instantly because the orders Gu Taixian gave him were completely different from what he expected. Although the mixed brigade must have division-level combat power, facing an army alone was somewhat unsure.

"Just hold on. If you can't stand it, you can also retreat and pull the opponent's troops." Gu Taixian added again: "I will take three days! After three days, I will send troops to reinforce you and take down the new army in one fell swoop! During this period, all the weapons and equipment that were captured, as well as prisoners of war, will be given to you!"

Qin Yu immediately replied, "Yes, I will definitely hold him back for three days!"

"that's all!"

After saying that, the two ended the call.

Five minutes later.

Li Zhan looked at Qin Yu incredibly and asked, "Fuck the New Army?! This... the pressure is too great. Their total strength is more than half of ours. Once we get into hand-to-hand combat, it is difficult for us to get out of the battlefield!"

"Uncle Gu's second arrangement must have his reason." Qin Yu frowned and said, "There are at least tens of thousands of people in the Gu family who haven't moved, and I can't understand what they are going to do. Forget it, I won't think about it anymore, let's fight first."

...

It was past one o'clock in the morning.

The four regiments of the mixed brigade suddenly set off towards Xinyang.

Songjiang, in the municipal office, Chen Yin laughed loudly when he heard the sound: "Hahaha, my father-in-law and son-in-law met. Damn, this battle is a bit interesting! Haha!"?
