When Ye Fan was making a deal with Temujin, Temujin followed his father's advice and decisively ordered Temujin's army to go to war.
Temuchahua clearly told Temujin that to start a war, a war must be started, and all parties must be involved in the war.
Not only must they attack Yanmen Pass, but they must also attack the Tulongdian army in Mingjiang and Tiannan Provinces.
Now we can only go to war to make the situation in Xia Kingdom chaotic, make Temujin more important, and give all parties no chance to settle accounts for the time being.
Otherwise, once the situation cools down, not only the Xue family will raise an army to investigate, but the other war commanders will also question the authority and intentions of the World Chamber of Commerce.
It is almost impossible to unite the hearts and minds of all the war commanders again next time.
Only if they are beaten into a pot of porridge and make them feel that they cannot leave Temujin, will they continue to obey Temujin's instructions.
Many shortcomings, many failures, and many difficult-to-solve situations, such as the Xue family's prosecution, can also be properly resolved during the war.
If all the Xue family died violently in the war, how could there be any crusade or expedition in the future?
If the other forces of war commanders who questioned Temujin's authority were severely reduced during the war, they would not dare to question and share more interests after the war.
Even betrayal like Temu Wuyue would become unworthy of mention in the war.
So Temujihua asked Temujin to start the war immediately,
Temujin immediately executed the order without saying a word.
So dozens of artillery battalions in front immediately poured war bombs on Yanmen Pass.
"Boom boom boom!"
Countless war bombs wrapped in flames hit the Shen family city wall.
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"
At the same moment, a shrill alarm sounded at Yanmen Pass.
One hundred thousand border troops quickly entered their respective posts.
Hundreds of thousands of people also immediately took shelter in air-raid shelters or basements.
Not long after the alarm sounded, war bombs appeared in the sky and poured down like rain, hitting the city walls and military strongholds hard.
The Yanmenguan air defense system was also activated quickly, and counterattacks were carried out immediately. Countless artillery fires were launched into the air to intercept the extremely lethal enemy bombs.
"Boom boom boom——"
The war bombs from both sides collided fiercely in mid-air, bursting into bright flames, and then fell to the open space with a roar.
However, many war bombs also fell into the city, and more than a dozen restaurants and houses collapsed instantly.
Several models of military sites arranged by Shen Qiye were also blown to pieces.
There were not many casualties in these rounds of bombing.
But Shen Qiye did not take it lightly. He knew that these rounds of the Ironwood Army were just test firings.
And the ammunition they used were all about to expire.
Next, the Ironwood army will pour out high-end weapons.
So Shen Qiye sat in the golden commanding position in Edinburgh and issued instructions one by one:
"The first division released thick smoke according to the plan and continued to confuse the opponent's satellite observation."
"The Second Division immediately rushed to Chaoyang Gate on the east side and blocked the blown-out city wall as quickly as possible to prevent the enemy from taking the opportunity to break in."
"The third division continues to watch the Ninth Princess, Xiang Liancheng, and Haba's army at the north gate. If the three armies make any moves, report to me immediately."
"The communications company will immediately repair the lines blown out by the east gate and south gate, and activate the emergency channel at the same time. We must maintain smooth communication between divisions and regiments."
"The 7th Artillery Battalion has exposed its position. Move positions as quickly as possible."
"Activate the eighth and ninth artillery battalion positions and prepare for the next round of interception..."
"No matter what, we must withstand the bombardment of the Ironwood army tonight."
Shen Qiye stared at the dozen or so large screens in front of him, holding a walkie-talkie and giving instructions to the soldiers in front, sternly but calmly.
There are still more than a dozen intelligence officers in Edinburgh, staring at the screen and constantly analyzing the battle situation, and at the same time transmitting instructions to the army, preparing to stop the coalition forces.
In a life and death battle, Shen Qiye still needs to take charge of the overall situation.
This is also true. After Shen Qiye issued the order, the top brass of the border army stabilized their morale, and the solemnity on their faces also dissipated a lot.
Then, Shen Qiye took the walkie-talkie and issued a series of instructions, asking his men to build bunkers and count the number of casualties.
After finishing his work, Shen Qiye picked up a cup of strong tea, drank more than half of it, and walked into the conference hall next door.
Sitting there were Yinpo, Donglang, Nanying, senior officials of the Border Army and senior officials of Heishuitai.
When Shen Qiye was having some leisure time, Yin Po, who was sitting in the lower left position, asked:
"Warmaster Shen, what on earth is this ironwood army doing?"
"Why did they suddenly start a war without warning?"
"The 400,000 iron-wood coalition troops came from various war zones. They just came together three days ago and have not yet been properly organized and integrated."
"Without running-in and rectification, rashly starting a war will not only greatly reduce the execution and combat effectiveness, but also easily cause internal friction."
She frowned: "After all, with soldiers from seven or eight forces gathering together, it's easy to argue over resources and weapons."
Donglang heard this and echoed:
"Yes, the sudden start of the war is indeed a bit abrupt. Although it was a surprise to us, it also clearly highlighted their shortcomings."
"And the bombs that bombed us were ordinary war bombs, not high-tech weapons."
"On the other hand, the Xue's war zone that exploded half an hour ago is said to have been bombed by advanced Vulture war bombs."
"Although Xue Wujiang and others tried their best to block the news, our spies were still able to spy that Xue's war zone suffered heavy losses."
"At least four camps are gone and tens of thousands of people are dead."
"I can't understand this episode at all."
"Only Temujin owns the Vulture fighter planes and Vulture war guides, but Xue Wujiang is their close ally."
"This bullish vulture war bomb did not blast Yanmen Pass, but instead attacked Xue's war zone. It is completely unfathomable."
Donglang also showed the collected intelligence to everyone present for review.
Intelligence clearly shows that Xue's war zone was severely damaged.
Shen Qiye leaned on his seat, picked up a cup of tea and took a sip:
"Yeah, there are a lot of things tonight that I can't understand, and they're so sudden that even the intelligence officers can't react."
"But it doesn't matter how unexpected it is outside, we just need to take care of our own one-third of an acre."
"Let's just deal with this battle according to the plan we deduced before."
"We don't need to care about whether there are any problems with the Ironwood army, nor do we need to care about the changes in Xue's war zone. We only need to fight with all our strength."
"No matter what, we must use our life and death to spur ourselves to fight with all our strength."
Shen Qiye's voice was majestic: "From me, Shen Qiye, down to the city gate guards, we must not let our guard down."
Yinpo and Donglang responded in unison: "Understood!"
"Dad, there is no news from Mr. Ye yet, and the phone cannot be reached."
At this time, Shen Chuge looked at Shen Qiye anxiously and said:
"Give me a team of people and I'll go to the teahouse to look for him. I'm afraid he's in danger."
Ye Fan said goodbye to her at the teahouse, saying that he had important matters to deal with with A Xiu and that he would be back in two days.
As a result, after being gone for several days now, Shen Chuge not only didn't see Ye Fan, he didn't even receive his call.
She called, but Ye Fan's cell phone was also turned off.
Normally, she would forget it. She believed that Ye Fan could handle it. Now that the war was in chaos, she wanted to go to Wangbei Teahouse to find Ye Fan.
Before Shen Qiye could speak, Yinpo's voice deepened:
"Miss Shen, what time is it now, and you are still thinking about Ye Aniu?
Are you still thinking about the love between your children?"
"The Ironwood Army has launched a war against us tonight. The safest way for you is to stay in the air raid shelter or basement instead of wandering around."
"Think about it, if you were captured by enemy spies or killed by a bomb, how sad would Commander Shen and Mrs. Shen be?"
"And if something happens to you, it will seriously affect War Commander Shen's mood, disrupt his command of operations, and also affect the overall situation of Yanmen Pass."
"If this battle cannot be held, 100,000 border troops will die violently, and hundreds of thousands of people will be devastated. Can you be worthy of them?"
"Besides, this Ye Aniu has disappeared for several days. It is very likely that he ran back to the Dragon Slaying Hall to avoid the battle."
"After all, this kind of fighting between hundreds of thousands and hundreds of thousands of troops is not something that a martial arts master can withstand."
"Ye Aniu has already abandoned us and you and fled back to the Dragon Slaying Hall. Aren't you stupid to still be here worrying about him?"
Po Yin thought of the shame Ye Fan had given her and the last slap in the face, and took the opportunity to pour out all the resentment in her heart.
Hearing this, Shen Qiye shouted: "Yinpo, please don't slander Young Master Ye. Young Master Ye disappeared. He has his own reasons for disappearing. Don't speculate maliciously."
Shen Chuge also shouted: "Young Master Ye is not that kind of person, he definitely did not hide back to the Dragon Slaying Hall."
"If he was greedy for life and afraid of death, he would not have stood up to fight in Shenjiabao, nor would he have taken the risk of staying and ending his family."
She stared at Indian Po and shouted: "Don't slander Mr. Ye."
When India Po heard this, she sneered, as if she had already seen through Mark's style:
"Ye Aniu is a master of martial arts. The battle in Shenjiabao, whether alone or against ten, is not difficult for him."
"He can ensure his own safety, stand up to protect us and win our favor. Why not go along with the flow of favor?"
"But now, hundreds of thousands of troops are fighting in a very dangerous situation. The role of martial arts masters is limited. If you are not careful, you will be hit by a stray bullet and lose your life."
She snorted: "It's so dangerous, so of course he ran away."
Shen Chuge slapped the table and shouted:
"Young Master Ye is definitely not this kind of person, Indian Po, please don't slander others."
