The city walls of Ganzhou.
Standing next to the middle-aged man were several officers in their thirties dressed in military uniforms.
"Director Zhao,"
An officer laughed and said, "These enemy troops have traveled a thousand miles to deliver themselves to their deaths. It's utterly laughable!"
Director Zhao, of course, is Zhao Bingzhang, the director of the General Political Training Department of the Privy Council!
After receiving His Majesty's appointment, Zhao Bingzhang rushed to Longyou and other places to take charge of the western expedition!
Accompanying Zhao Bingzhang were four newly expanded infantry divisions—the 36th, 37th, and 38th Infantry Divisions, and the 11th Cavalry Division—which had just been assigned to the Northwest Military Region.
These troops set off from various places, carrying with them some logistical supplies, which were then transported to various cities in Longyou.
Without lingering in Longyou City, Zhao Bingzhang led his troops and supplies to Ganzhou City.
However, Zhao Bingzhang did not expect that they would encounter such a thing so soon after arriving in Ganzhou City!
There are still so many enemy troops who have traveled thousands of miles to come and deliver themselves to their deaths?
This is absolutely ridiculous!
Hahaha……
Thinking of this, Zhao Bingzhang couldn't help but burst into laughter.
Looking at the officers around him, Zhao Bingzhang said, "Commenders, as the saying goes, it's better to arrive at the right time than to arrive early. We've just arrived in Ganzhou City, and people are already coming to their deaths. This is too good to be true!"
As the saying goes, "If you don't take what Heaven offers, you will suffer the consequences!"
"This is also a good opportunity for us to test the combat capabilities of each unit!"
"Commander Peng, Commander Luo, Commander Chen, Commander Huang, I don't know anything about combat, so it's up to you now!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhao Bingzhang looked at Peng Feng, Luo Kangjun, Chen Jiaqi, Huang Xiaofeng and others beside him with a big smile.
Upon hearing Zhao Bingzhang's words, the four men nodded hurriedly and said, "Don't worry, Director Zhao, this time we will make sure these enemy troops don't return!"
Immediately, Peng Feng said, "Old Luo, Old Chen, you two flank from the left and right respectively, while we, the 36th Infantry Division, attack from the front! Our three infantry divisions will attack from three sides! Commander Huang's 11th Cavalry Division will bypass the enemy's rear and cut off their retreat!"
"OK!"
Immediately, Luo Kangjun, Chen Jiaqi, Huang Xiaofeng, and others nodded in agreement.
With the fighter jets in high demand, there was naturally no scramble for them.
After discussing the matter, the four men each took command of the army outside the city and began their counterattack.
One by one, fully armed soldiers, holding their guns, aimed at the Samanid Khanate's cavalry army in the distant wilderness, waiting silently.
Rumble!
Rumble!
In the wilderness, fifty to sixty thousand Saman Khanate cavalrymen galloped toward Ganzhou City.
However, what they never expected was that the people carrying supplies outside Ganzhou City were not ordinary laborers.
Instead, it is a newly expanded, fully armed, large-scale cadre army!
"First Regiment, Second Regiment, push forward!"
Upon arriving outside the city, Peng Feng, commander of the 36th Infantry Division, shouted in a deep voice.
Immediately, the soldiers put down the ammunition boxes they were carrying, picked up their weapons, and advanced forward.
"Keep your distance and watch out for ammo boxes!"
Peng Feng looked at the supplies on the ground and shouted loudly.
Under Peng Feng's commands, the soldiers of the 36th Infantry Division quickly deployed in formation in the open field.
At the same time, the 37th and 38th Infantry Divisions, which were transporting supplies, also detoured to the side and surrounded the flank of the Samanid cavalry.
Rumble!
Rumble!
In the wilderness, the Samanid cavalry drew ever closer.
Seeing that the people outside Ganzhou City had made a move, Ashina Simo became even more puzzled.
A bad feeling welled up inside me.
Something feels off!
Ashina Simo's heart skipped a beat.
However, before Ashina Simo could figure it out, the vanguard was already close to the walls of Ganzhou.
As Ashina Simo drew closer to the "laborers" beneath the walls of Ganzhou, he suddenly spotted faint clusters of orange-red light flashing in the distant wilderness.
The orange-red light flashed and disappeared in an instant.
They are densely packed and stretch across the open field.
Before Ashina Simo could react, a tearing sound, like ripping cloth, came from behind him.
Da da da!
Da da da!
A barrage of gunfire then erupted.
Rows of bullets, like the Grim Reaper's scythe lying across the wilderness, mercilessly slashed down.
Before the Samanid cavalrymen, who were galloping wildly across the open field, could react, they were hit by volleys of bullets.
Instantly, blood splattered, and flesh was mangled beyond recognition.
One by one, Samanid cavalrymen fell from their horses and died instantly.
Some cavalrymen, who were lucky enough not to die on the spot, were trampled over by the cavalrymen rushing in from behind.
In an instant, it was crushed into a pile of minced meat.
However, just as these cavalrymen charged forward, they were met with a hail of bullets.
Puff! Puff! Puff!
A dense hail of bullets swept across the land. These Samanid cavalrymen fell in rows, like ripe wheat in a field.
"What...what's going on?"
"Aren't these laborers?"
"How can there be such a powerful weapon!"
For a moment, Ashina Simo was stunned, staring blankly at the scene in the distance, unable to utter a word for a long time.
Just as Ashina Simo was filled with shock, two more large armies emerged from both sides of Ganzhou City and surrounded the Samanid cavalry on their flanks.
Although the infantrymen of the Da Gan Army did not move very fast, they still ran with all their might.
They were all new recruits from places like Heluo, Hedong, and Shuzhong.
Despite being new recruits, they were all full of fighting spirit.
Seeing the 36th Infantry Division fighting bravely against the enemy, I felt particularly envious.
"Hurry! Speed things up!"
A battalion commander shouted in a deep voice, "Charge! We must kill the enemy properly! We can't let the brothers of the 36th Division look down on us!"
"Kill them!"
At the battalion commander's shout, the soldiers marched quickly into the open field.
Before long, two infantry divisions on the flanks had joined the battle.
Da da da!
Da da da!
The machine guns began to roar relentlessly, reaping the lives of the Samanid cavalrymen in the wilderness!
Meanwhile, to the south of Ganzhou City, a cavalry force of over ten thousand men was rapidly sweeping across the open fields, making a large circle before galloping northwest.
This cavalry force was none other than the 11th Cavalry Division under the command of Huang Xiaofeng!
Their objective, of course, was to cut off the retreat route of the Samanid Khanate's cavalry army!
If we can outflank them and cut off the Samanid Khanate's cavalry's rear, we can completely surround this enemy cavalry force outside Ganzhou City!
Then we'll be able to swallow them all whole!
