The war Lu Ziming tried to avoid inevitably broke out. Although this was the end he didn't want to see, it was a reality he had to accept. It was cruel and helpless. Being forced to this step was also an inevitable result.

In the early morning, there was a sudden rumble of gunfire in the direction of jiutun. One roaring shell landed on the nearby position, raising huge smoke and dust. The defense network was torn and thrown high. The mines buried under the position were detonated. The dust covered the sunrise in the morning, shrouded in a gray, the earth under my feet trembled slightly, and the fire beat in the smoke and dust, There was a dance of death.

The shelling lasted more than ten minutes and then stopped abruptly. The landlord's house had no food. Obviously, it was almost lack of shells like Xincheng. It was the limit to maintain it for a period of time.

Just after the shelling, a dark shadow appeared on the horizon in the distance. The dark shadow accompanied by dust shot out slender steel cables. The "crackling" electric flowers jumped on the steel cables and quickly detonated the mines on the soil surface. Soon, those shadows threw out a cylindrical weight, rolled back and forth on the ground under the traction of the steel cable, and the mines buried deeper were detonated one by one under the heavy pressure.

Xincheng and jiutun laid a large number of mines in front of the positions of both sides under the long-term confrontation, and the act of clearing each other's mines was also regarded as a prelude signal of the attack.

Xincheng surprisingly did not obstruct the mine clearance operation of jiutun. He watched the refitted heavy demining vehicles drive out of jiutun and roll back and forth on the mine position of Xincheng, opening up a safe passage for the follow-up troops to attack.

The unilateral mine action in jiutun heralded the beginning of the war. More than an hour later, the first shell landed on the Xincheng position, and the Xincheng battle officially started.

At the same time, the enemy deployed in the north and south directions of Xincheng also slowly approached the suburbs of Xincheng. Different from the west of Xincheng, Lu Ziming did not arrange mine areas in other directions, and the fierce exchange of fire occurred first in the north and south directions.

"The enemy in the north and south of Xincheng has begun to attack, and the enemy in the West has not attacked, which is different from our expectations?"

"What is the combat effectiveness of the enemy in the north-south direction of Xincheng?"

As the commander in chief of Xincheng defense war, Lao he opened his red eyes: "the combat effectiveness of the enemy in the north and south of Xincheng is not strong, and has been blocked outside the city by Xincheng's reserve army, but beware of the enemy's deliberate weakness!"

"Well, let the enemy bullets fly for a while and see the combat effectiveness of the enemy in the west?"

The bear put forward his own suggestion: "Lu Shuai, it's time to fight back. First defeat the enemy in the north and south, and then concentrate the superior forces to attack the enemy's Western army. The battle will end earlier?"

Koala's suggestion was immediately refuted by Lao he: "no! The enemy's intention is unknown. Now is not the time to take the initiative? At this time, we defeated the enemy on the north and South routes, exposed our follow-up plan in advance, and we can't judge whether the enemy has other backers...".

Lu Ziming can't figure out what action jiutun will take next. Similarly, jiutun doesn't know how he will react. He can only speculate after the other party makes a move.

"Fat cat, what do you see?"

The fat cat forced to the meeting room by Lu Ziming had a deep resentment on his face and pouted his mouth outside the door. Lu Ziming turned around and saw a guard come in: "report! Zhao zhuobiao asked for a call?"

"Put the call in!"

Zhao Zhuo Biao's figure appeared on the screen. Hu Zhazi on his face still had a grass root in his mouth: "Lu Shuai, an enemy officer named Wan Jun on the South Road has just sent a letter and is willing to surrender to Xincheng. He also said that he can rise up before the battle, seize the enemy commander on the South Road and ask whether we accept his uprising?"

Lu Ziming thought or didn't want to say, "tell Wan Jun that we accept his uprising, but now is not the time to let him continue to lurk in the enemy and wait for Xincheng's order?"

Lao he opened his mouth and said, "Lu Shuai, is this a false surrender of the enemy?"

Xiao Cao nodded and said: "it's possible. When jiutun intercepted the civilians in the plain base yesterday, it was already miserable among the civilians. More than 100 people sneaked into Xincheng, but I didn't expect that we would have screened the civilians from the plain base. These people are already under monitoring. Is it time for Lu Shuai to find them?"

"What's the hurry? The cards in jiutun haven't finished yet. We should be patient and see what else jiutun can do!"

The battle with jiutun is destined to be an asymmetric war. Firstly, the gap in the number of soldiers has directly led to the tactical changes of Xincheng. Secondly, the strategy of dividing troops and encircling jiutun seems to have greatly restrained Xincheng's troops. In fact, it has reduced the positive pressure of Xincheng, which is like a fist without clenching, Let Xincheng have the possibility of breaking one by one.

For this enemy and old opponent, the advantages and disadvantages of jiutun are clear at a glance, the number of advantages is large, and the disadvantages are also obvious. The combat effectiveness of the army is insufficient, and the weapons and equipment are extremely scarce. In addition, when the army fled from Dingxian, the establishment was chaotic, and people's minds changed. Up to now, there is no complete and unified combat system. It is not difficult to imagine how much strength such an army has.

Of course, this is also the strategy of some militants eager to transfer contradictions. The crisis either comes from the outside or erupts inside first. It is difficult to imagine how many people in jiutun will really fight after they start fighting Xincheng.

"Report! The enemy in the West has begun to attack!"

Everyone's eyes focused on the huge light curtain on the front. The army of jiutun finally launched a general attack. Watching the rolling steel torrent formed by jiutun pass through the mine area, followed by dense infantry, the only thing they didn't see was the plane.

Lu Ziming issued a challenge order without changing his face: "send the first flight brigade to intercept!"

Compared with jiutun, Xincheng captured two armed helicopters in the plain base, which is the earliest air army in Xincheng. Unfortunately, it is difficult to form combat effectiveness, that is, to frighten the jiutun army.

"Order the first artillery battalion to fight back and beat the vanguard troops hard!"

Although there was no rumbling gunfire in the conference room, everyone was in a mess. With the order, Xincheng began to fight back. The number of guns in Xincheng and jiutun was about the same, but under the micro operation of Xiao Pan's [financial control] foul, Xincheng's guns exploded around the attacking armored vehicles like eyes, and armored vehicles were overturned by fierce gunfire, Climbing on the way forward with thick black smoke.

"The number of artillery is still too small. If it is increased by three or four times, all the enemy's attack vehicles can be destroyed?"

"Forget it! This is the limit of Xiao Pan's micro control ability. If there is more, Xiao pan can only be in a hurry!"
