Chapter 1393 Troops Stay, Families Evacuate
Tan Mingzhao immediately explained, "No, it's not about giving up Dragon City. There was a meeting, and they decided to first open up the towns around Dragon City, and let the troops from Zone One enter. Our troops will be divided into smaller units, and according to regional divisions, we will carry out resistance against them in the city. I will also stay in the city and continue to fight a guerrilla war with the enemy, dragging them into urban warfare!"
Hearing this, Su Tianbei looked at the battlefield in front of him, where fierce fighting was taking place, and couldn't help cursing, "Damn it, I was just about to kill the Wang family's traitors! Zhang Xunchen, you son of a bitch..."
Tan Mingzhao hurriedly interrupted him, "There's no point in saying this now. You should withdraw quickly to ensure the combat effectiveness of your troops. Your side has suffered considerable losses in this battle, so take advantage of the time to reorganize. Later, I will transfer your regiment to leave first, to protect the civilian personnel in the city, as well as their families, to evacuate to the Lao Mo area, and then enter Bana City."
Su Tianbei nodded in agreement: "Okay, I understand."
After saying that, the two quickly ended the call. Su Tianbei waved his hand and called out to his regimental staff officer, "Count the casualties, take the wounded, and quickly withdraw from this area, now!"
"Yes!"
The regimental staff officer saluted and quickly executed the order.
The remaining soldiers of the independent regiment immediately took action, resisting the enemy's attack while retreating, gradually beginning to withdraw outwards.
...
At the same time, Xin Xiaodong's unit also received a retreat order, notifying him not to continue defending, but to have the troops break up into smaller units and enter Dragon City in batches to carry out resistance warfare on their own.
The specific combat plan would be decided by the First Army's staff department.
When Xin Xiaodong received this order, he looked at the Wang family's traitorous troops resisting the unit's attack in the distance, and his teeth itched with hatred! But he was very clear that the possibility of eliminating this group of rebels had now been lost!
Damn Zhang Xunchen, commanding the rebel troops to withstand this wave of pressure for the Wang family, forcibly extending their lifeline. Now that the two sides are combined, there are more than 10,000 people in total. It is definitely unrealistic to eat them in a few hours.
With such a force, once they enter urban street fighting, it will be very time-consuming.
Xin Xiaodong gritted his teeth. Although he was unwilling, he also understood when to cut his losses in time. So, he issued an order to direct the troops to retreat and enter the city from the flanks of Anhe Street.
At the same time, inside the command vehicle, Xin Xiaodong called on his staff team and began to quickly formulate a new combat plan.
Chief of General Staff Wu sat next to him, and after listening to Xin Xiaodong's conveyed order, he pondered for a long time before saying, "I really didn't expect Tan Hengqiang to be so courageous this time. The outer defense line has collapsed, and he still wants to fight in the city. I thought he would definitely run away."
Hearing this, Xin Xiaodong curled his lips and said with a hint of sarcasm, "He wanted to run, but General An and his son confronted him, and now he understands. If he runs again, he will be completely isolated! Moreover, I thought about it, and it's okay to fight like this. Our troops must not leave the urban area. As long as the gunfire stops, the people's thoughts will also stop. If the grassroots give up their support for us, this battle will definitely not be won. So, even if all our troops are wiped out, we must ensure the heat of the war here before the Lao Mo civil unrest ends, and add fuel to the fire in everyone's hearts!"
"I think so too."
Chief of General Staff Wu nodded, very much agreeing with this idea.
Xin Xiaodong took out the combat instrument and opened the map on it, saying, "We are now assigned to four districts, namely Zhanan, Longkou, Fugang, and Daokou District. Uncle Wu, notify everyone that we will use the regiment as a combat unit, quickly allocate resources at our supply points, and move all the equipment and supplies. Next, find your own defense zone, fix your own positions, and resist the enemy."
"Yes!"
Chief of General Staff Wu saluted and began to assign tasks downwards.
Soon, the entire First Army of the Min Army received the order and began to gather at the designated supply points. After distributing the supplies, they dispersed and entered the city.
...
At 11:30 p.m., inside an abandoned building in Dragon City.
In the dilapidated corridor, Facelift sat on the ground, looking at the combat instrument in his hand.
He secretly took two companies, and through personnel he had bought off in various guilds and associations, he searched the city but still could not find the evacuation route for the Tan family and An family's families.
In the end, he could only hide in this building, waiting for orders and information.
At this time, Wang An was very anxious because his heart was full of hatred. The reason he risked entering the city was only to retaliate against the An faction and the Yu family!
But unfortunately, he had put in so much effort but failed to find his target! Even finding some insiders failed to provide accurate information!
Wang An estimated that the two families must have secretly sent their families out of Dragon City before the war, which is why he missed them!
Sorting out the existing information in his hand, Wang An sighed, took out his mobile phone, and called his elder brother Wang Xiao.
Soon, the phone was connected, and that familiar voice rang out, "Hello, how is it going on your side?"
Facelift shook his head, looking disappointed, and said, "I didn't succeed on my side, I couldn't find the target."
"It's okay, then don't bother with it for now." Wang Xiao said somewhat triumphantly, "We have withstood the pressure on our side, the First Army is about to collapse, and the war in Dragon City is coming to an end! Take your people to my side immediately to join up!"
Wang An thought for a while, and had no choice but to put down the unwillingness in his heart and nodded, "Okay, I'll go back immediately."
The two hung up the phone, and Facelift turned his head and said to the adjutant, "Pack up and head to Anhe Street!"
"Yes!"
More than two hundred people quietly left the abandoned building in the darkness of the night.
...
At the same time, Dragon City, the Kong family compound.
Kong Zhengui sat in his room, looking out the window, frowning and smoking a cigarette.
"Bang!"
Just then, the door was suddenly pushed open, and Kong Zhengqi ran in慌慌张张地, and said to him, "Brother, everyone has踏马跑了! The troops in front have also withdrawn! I heard that Lao Li and Lao Tan are preparing to hide and command! What should we do?"
Kong Zhengui glanced at him, and before he could speak, the phone on the table rang.
"Dilingling!"
The call was from Zhou Tonghui, and Kong Zhengui immediately answered the phone, "Hello?"
Zhou Tonghui asked urgently, "Zhengui, I'm calling to inform you that the higher-ups are preparing to withdraw! We are now starting to transfer family members, let's evacuate Dragon City together! Take your family and come to the assembly point quickly!"
