Soon, all the encirclement areas were broken through by the army led by Li Xin.
The coalition forces retreated to the city of Que and set up multiple defenses at each street entrance to the city.
Li Xin's army quickly approached Quecheng, and originally thought that they could easily win. However, when the army attacked Quecheng, they encountered an even more fierce resistance.
The coalition forces set up solid roadblocks at every intersection, built sturdy bunkers, and concealed powerful heavy firepower on rooftops and in houses.
For a while, Li Xin's army was suppressed and could hardly move forward even a step.
In order to avoid harming civilians, Li Xin had to give up using artillery shells, which not only greatly increased the difficulty of the attack, but also led to greater casualties.
Li Xin's army had been advancing like a hot knife through butter all the way, but they were unable to move forward at all here. For a while, they were unable to break through the defense line at all, and instead suffered heavy losses.
The large group of troops was blocked inside the city, unable to advance or retreat.
The news quickly reached the command center, and Li Xin was troubled when he heard it.
"General, I suggest using heavy artillery. Qin Yong and Luo Kun have set up a large number of such blocking points in Quecheng. If we don't use heavy artillery, we will definitely suffer heavy losses even if we break into the city."
Li Xin frowned and said, "No, there are many civilians in the city. If we use heavy artillery to attack, it will inevitably cause casualties among innocent people."
"General, Luo Kun and Qin Yong saw this clearly. They knew that we would not harm civilians. That's why they set up a large number of blocking points in the city, hoping to use these blocking points to fight a war of attrition with us."
"That's right. We simply can't afford to waste time. We are now in an advantageous position, and Quecheng is within reach. If we give Luo Kun and Qin Yong a chance to catch their breath, it will not be so easy for us to capture Quecheng."
"You're right. In extraordinary times, we should take extraordinary measures. If we can't capture Quecheng as soon as possible, all our previous victories will lose their advantages. Although Luo Kun and Qin Yong have lost many soldiers and generals, they have the support of Meng State. We must capture Quecheng and Focheng as soon as possible before Meng State intervenes. By then, even if Meng State supports us, we will still be able to fight."
All the generals were trying their best to persuade Li Xin to use heavy artillery. They were all eager to capture Quecheng as soon as possible to reduce their own casualties.
Li Xin naturally understood what they said, but he had a longer-term vision. What Li Hui wanted was to unify the entire Golden Triangle area, not just to simply eliminate Luo Kun and Qin Yong.
If one wants to unify the Golden Triangle region and establish an independent regime, one naturally needs the support of the people.
If we ignore the casualties of ordinary people, even if we unify the Golden Triangle, the independent regime will be firmly opposed by the people.
After thinking for a moment, Li Xin said solemnly: "Everyone, isn't the purpose of our war to unify the Golden Triangle region and stop the people from suffering from the ravages of war? If we don't care about the lives of the people for the sake of victory, then what is the meaning of our unification?"
"Listen carefully, no matter what, no matter when, you must not abuse the people. No matter how much I have to pay, I will not bring casualties to innocent people."
After hearing this, everyone stopped talking.
Chen Ping was standing nearby, and when he heard what Li Hui said, he felt very reassured.
The duty of the military is to protect the country. If they can't even protect the people, what kind of soldiers are they?
Chen Ping stood up and said, "General Li, the advantage of our Dragon Flame Special Forces lies in this kind of urban combat. I will help you solve these problems."
Li Xin was delighted when he heard this. He stretched out his hands and held Chen Ping's hand tightly. He said with gratitude, "Captain Chen, if you are willing, I sincerely thank you for your help."
Chen Ping nodded slightly: "Leave it to us."
"good."
Li Xin immediately said to everyone: "Everyone, from now on, the command of the front line will be handed over to Captain Chen. Everyone must cooperate with Captain Chen unconditionally."
"yes."
Everyone responded loudly.
Everyone knows how powerful Long Yan is, and they all want to see with their own eyes how powerful Long Yan is.
Li Xin was even more grateful to Chen Ping.
"General Li, there is no time to lose. I will take my men there immediately."
"Okay, thank you, Captain Chen."
After Chen Ping finished speaking, he strode out of the command post and came to his own military station.
Shouting: "Assemble."
Hundreds of Dragon Flame Special Forces members quickly assembled.
Chen Ping faced everyone and said loudly: "Brothers, our first combat mission has arrived. The friendly forces encountered a fierce resistance in Quecheng and suffered heavy casualties. Our mission is to assist the friendly forces and eliminate all the defense points in Quecheng."
"There may be casualties in this operation, but I hope you can complete this mission excellently. On the battlefield, I also hope you can unite as one and defeat all enemies."
“Do you have confidence?”
When everyone heard this, they showed no fear at all. Their eyes were sharp and they shouted in unison: "Captain, we are confident that we can complete the mission."
"Okay, everyone, let's go to the frontier."
"yes."
Soon, Chen Ping led the Longyan Special Forces to the front line.
The sound of gunfire here continued one after another, and all friendly troops were blocked and surrounded.
Because the street was narrow, it could not accommodate too many people attacking at the same time. A small number of people would have difficulty conquering the city and would have suffered heavy losses.
As soon as Chen Ping arrived here, he took over the command and asked everyone to stop attacking blindly.
Chen Ping brought Li Tianlang, Wen Tai, and Zhang Haoran to the perimeter to carefully observe the enemy's defense points.
The enemy's defense points were arranged on three streets, which were lined with sandbags half a person's height, and a large number of difficult-to-cross roadblocks were set up in front.
Moreover, the entire street is full of fortifications. Even if the first defense point is taken, there are still many obstacles behind.
Even if you can push forward with difficulty, there are enemies hiding in the houses on both sides and on the rooftops. No matter how you move, you will be attacked from three sides.
Because of this, the friendly forces suffered heavy losses and were unable to advance even half a step. The front line of defense was littered with the bodies of friendly forces.
"Looking at the current situation, it's relatively safe to attack from inside the house. So, each of you three will lead a group to attack and start breaking through from the outside of the house. Let the sniper provide cover for you and quickly capture the interior of the house. As long as all the enemies in the house are eliminated, it won't be a big problem for friendly forces to attack from the outside."
"It's the captain."
"You go down and make arrangements. I will have friendly forces cooperate with you and continue the frontal attack to attract the enemy's attention."
"Um."
Li Tianlang and the other two immediately went down to arrange the tasks, and each of them chose a location to attack.
Chen Ping asked the friendly forces to cooperate with Li Tianlang and others to continuously launch frontal attacks to attract the enemy's firepower.
Each sniper team set up their sniper rifles in the city, ready to shoot the enemies on the roofs and in the houses at any time.
As the friendly forces successfully attracted the enemy's attention, Li Tianlang and the other two were ready.
"Action."
The three of them led their teams to quickly approach the house. As soon as they approached, someone immediately set up guns on the roof and windows to block them.
Sniper rifles kept firing, providing cover for their approach, but any enemy who showed up was killed on the spot.
Li Tianlang and his two brothers approached quickly and suppressed the enemy with gunfire. Soon, they arrived behind the wall of the house.
The men were fully equipped and approached the wall before quickly dispersing, each looking for an opportunity to enter the houses.
The houses in Quecheng were not tall and neatly arranged like those in Daxia; they were of different heights and built in a disorderly manner.
For special forces, anti-ball is more conducive to concealment and entry.
The members of the Dragon Flame Special Forces quickly spread out and entered these houses from all corners.
They are like ghosts in the night. People can never predict where they will appear in the next second.
