December 24th, late at night.
Manzhou, northwest of Jalainuoer, 50 kilometers away from the Tujia Temple.
Standing at a mountain pass, Zhang Xuecheng took out his military binoculars and observed the airport built by Mao Xiong on the flat ground in front of him.
The airport was so quiet that it was as if there was no one around. There was only the sound of the wind blowing around. A few searchlights turned around. On the observation deck, there were a few bear-clad soldiers carrying Mosinaga rifles and walking around listlessly.
Putting down the binoculars, Zhang Xuecheng thought for a moment and asked Li Yunlong,""Have the 2nd and 3rd divisions arrived at the expected location? Did the furry bear army sense anything?"
"Commander, Old Chu's 3rd Division has arrived at the predetermined location. As long as we fire the first shot, the 3rd Division's 9 155mm howitzers and 81 French Bronte 81mm mortars, a total of 90 cannons can fire at Mao Xiong's army at the same time.”
"After firing the artillery shells, the 3rd division will follow the commander's tactic of tanks in the front and infantry in the back to attack Mao Xiong's headquarters. It is estimated that before the 4 main divisions of Mao Xiong react, they will rush straight to Mao Xiong's headquarters and capture Bruher.”
Hearing that Li Yunlong only mentioned the 3rd division and not the 2nd division, Zhang Xuecheng frowned and asked,""What about the second division? Have the 2nd division of Ma Zhanshan arrived at the designated location?”
"Commander, Old Ma's 2nd division has encountered some problems. They are still about an hour away from the scheduled location.”
After Li Yunlong finished speaking, he turned to Zhang Xuecheng, who had a bad expression on his face, and said,""Old Ma's 2nd division is already on their way. In my opinion, the 2nd division can help the 3rd division divert the firepower and stop the enemy from escaping.”
" Time waits for no one. It's almost dawn. This time, before the hairy bear army realizes what's going on, we must completely crush the resistance of the hairy bear army in three hours and annihilate the hairy bear army in four hours. Five hours later, I will be sitting in the command center of the hairy bear army and drinking coffee.”
As soon as Zhang Xuecheng finished speaking, Li Yunlong, who was beside him, knew that Zhang Xuecheng had already given the order to attack. He stood up with a bang and saluted Zhang Xuecheng. Then, he turned to the messenger and shouted,"Pass on my order, target the hairy bear airfield in front, fire.”
"Yes, sir!" The messenger responded and turned to the artillery troops."Commander's order, fire!"
"Boom, boom, boom…"
As soon as the messenger finished speaking, the nine 155mm howitzers at the rear fired in unison. The rumbling sounds of the cannons resounded throughout the world.
At the left front mortar position, after the nine 155mm howitzers fired, they all picked up the shells and placed them into the muzzles as if they had heard the order.
Every artillery soldier was busy moving the shells and placing them into the muzzles of the mortars that had already been set up.
When the cannon fire rang out, everyone in the hairy bear army was having a good dream in the camp. Only a few people on night patrol heard the faint sound of heavy artillery fire in the distance.
However, they didn't pay much attention to it. Instead, they asked their companions beside them,"Leksky, did I hear the sound of cannon fire just now?”
" Lapor, your ears aren't frozen, are they? I think you should go see a military doctor…"
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Before he could finish his sentence, countless artillery shells rained down from the sky. A large caliber artillery shell landed right beside the two furry bear soldiers.
With a loud boom, the place where the two people were standing just a moment ago was now left with a no man's land that was five to six meters deep, eight to nine meters wide, and ten meters wide.
This wave of cannon fire caught Furious Bear off guard. Furious Bear's military camp was thrown into chaos.
By the time Goraval was woken up by his subordinates, the 1st Artillery Division had already bombarded the airport for 15 minutes.
Li Yun Long had even ordered the tank battalion to charge. The 5,000 men of the 1st regiment who were following closely behind the tanks had already crouched down and hid behind the tanks. They quickly occupied Mao Xiong's airport at an astonishing speed.
"Quick, pass down the order. We can't shoot back. We can only counterattack when the commander says so.”
"Also, send a telegram to the commander immediately. The Fengtian First Army did not arrive in Manzhou the day after tomorrow. Instead, they attacked our airport early this morning. The enemy's attack is fierce.”
After Goraval said this, he secretly heaved a sigh of relief. He thought to himself that even if he was defeated in the military court in the future, his family would not have to go to the farm to dig potatoes.
His family was fine, but the order that he had passed down that they couldn't fight back made the thousands of soldiers at the airport feel at a loss.
Even the pilots who were about to board the plane and fight back against Feng Jun in the sky thought they had heard wrongly.
When they repeatedly questioned the messenger, the messenger said that it was the commander's order that they could not counterattack. They did not know what to do next!
"Sigh, Commander, this is really strange!”
Li Yunlong put down his binoculars and asked Zhang Xuecheng,""I, Old Li, have been in the war for half my life. I have never seen an army that doesn't retaliate with their guns when the enemy has already attacked.”
"Could it be that the commander of this furry bear has already been killed by us? They no longer have anyone to command them?”
" The Furious Bears Army doesn't look like they've lost their division commander after we blew him up. They don't seem to be fighting back at all. Instead, they look more like they've been ordered by their division commander not to fight back!!”
Zhang Xuecheng shook his head and denied Li Yunlong's guess.
"Hey! Who cares what the hairy bear army is like? I, Old Li, have never retreated halfway through a battle.”
Li Yun Long turned to command the army and ordered,""Order the 2nd Regiment to immediately attack from both sides of the 1st Regiment. Under the cover of the tank battalion, I'm going to make Tujiamiao Airport into a dumpling and swallow this damn bear in one bite.”
"Yes, sir! Teacher!" After saluting Li Yunlong, the messenger immediately passed the order.
"Wang Shengda, you motherf * cking Third Regiment, immediately send a battalion to protect the planes at the airport. If there's one less plane from now on, I'll take care of you immediately!”
"Commander, don't worry. I will personally lead a battalion down to protect the aircraft and complete the mission.”A middle-aged man wearing the rank of regiment commander bowed to Li Yunlong and immediately led a battalion to the occupied airport.
Zhang Xuecheng, who was beside him, had been watching how Li Yunlong commanded the battle. He didn't interfere with Li Yunlong's command, but let him fully display his commanding skills and take over the enemy's position step by step.
He knew that as a qualified leader, it was his duty to let his subordinates fully display their commanding abilities.
Unlike Old Jiang, who clearly didn't know his own capabilities but still liked to interfere with the command of the generals at the front line.
It was obvious that they could win the battle, and it was a sure win. However, he was blindly commanding them. It was unreasonable for them not to lose.
