Chapter 709: Another telegram to...headquarters, the Tiger Guards are about to start a war!
Xi Cheng.
Located in the west of Yi River in the central part of Diandi, it is a city built around mining.
There are three large mines in the surrounding area, and according to incomplete statistics, there are as many as seventeen small mines of various sizes controlled by various families.
It is the richest mining area in the country, rich in various rare minerals.
After learning that the Japanese here were supporting Wa City, John Guo quickly assembled and captured the almost empty city of Xicheng.
"Commander, the Tiger Guards are just outside. Are we just going to sit there and do nothing?" Ham stood beside Carl on the city gate tower, his tone full of joy. After all, he had suffered a lot in the Tiger Guards, and he vented a lot here.
Especially when he saw the Tiger Guards stopped there, Ham's face showed even more smiles.
To dilute the shot fired by the expeditionary force in Gushan, this alone is not enough.
"The Japanese troops in Diandi have evacuated to the south. The Tiger Guards only control some areas around Wacheng. With the Japanese troops watching closely, they dare not conflict with us again."
Carl looked at the Huben Army that had stopped outside Xicheng City, and a smile appeared on his face.
After all, the Tiger Guards have just started. When they were fighting with Enoria in West Africa, when the two sides were confronting each other, those tanks and soldiers were a black mass. With the current strength of the Tiger Guards, what kind of pressure can it bring to them?
"Ham, do you want to make a bet? Let's bet on when the Humen Army will retreat!!" Carl was holding a cup of coffee with a slight smile on his face.
He dared to guarantee that the Hu Ben Army would never choose to fight on two fronts. After all, they had just ended a great war, the city of Wa was not yet firmly established, and there were external enemies all around.
Fighting on two fronts is extremely irrational. Lin Tianchen is a top commander and it is impossible for him not to think of this.
"Ten days." Ham naturally agreed with Carl's idea. After thinking about it, he spoke.
"You overestimate them, at most three..."
Carl blurted out, but suddenly his expression changed, no longer as elegant as before. He put the coffee aside and immediately picked up the telescope.
Because the Huben Army in the distance had made new moves, it was obviously not a retreat.
Instead, it seems like a gathering.
Gathering doesn't mean retreating... Carl's pupils suddenly shrank, and the elegant smile on his face suddenly became very serious. He stared intently with the telescope.
Suddenly, at the corner of the distant mountain road, a large number of troops appeared. Sand was blown up on the road, and one soldier after another seemed to be stepping on reddish-brown clouds, stepping out from the sky.
They are so powerful and fierce, like an army of demons from hell. The most important thing is that the number of people is still gathering, more and more!
"One division... two... No, that's too many people... Did the Tiger Guards bring all their main forces here?"
Carl looked stunned, and he couldn't control his nervousness because the number of Tiger Guards gathered before him far exceeded their previous expectations.
"Sir, they... seem to have brought all the heavy artillery here..." Ham swallowed, his eyes full of fear.
Carl looked in the direction of Ham's finger and saw that on a road, a Tiger Army truck pulled heavy artillery and even began to set up the artillery blatantly.
The speed of setting up the gun was not fast, and it was obvious to them.
If it were any other army, Carl would definitely not break out in a cold sweat, but the one in front of him was the Tiger Guards, which was not an ordinary army.
"Commander...Commander, Lin Tianchen doesn't really want to beat Xicheng, right?" Ham frowned, and his tone began to become a little complicated.
This kind of momentum and this feeling were so familiar to him!
Just like when they were at the South Gate of Heaven, the soldiers of the Tiger Guards marched towards them aggressively.
The only difference is that last time they were facing guns, but this time they were facing a group of heavy artillery that was being built.
"The Tiger Guards don't dare to fight! They don't dare!" Carl looked at what was in front of him and shook his head. Although he was also very uneasy in his heart, he spoke very firmly:
"If the Tiger Guards want to gain a foothold in Dian, they must gain international recognition. Going to war with us would mean making an enemy of the world! They have no legitimate reason to be in Dian, so he wouldn't dare!"
Carl concealed his inner uneasiness and stared at the gathering Tiger Guards soldiers.
At this moment, on some flat ground and in the mountains outside the city, the Huben Army had begun to stop and were even building positions right in front of them!
At this time, a staff officer beside him frowned as if water was about to come out of his brows, and his eyes were full of uncertainty.
"Sir, according to the data on the Tiger Guards in the three northeastern provinces, after they captured Jincheng, the Japanese decided to separate themselves from the Tiger Guards during the winter. At that time, the Kwantung Army had an absolute advantage."
"Everyone thought the Tiger Guards would stop their attack, but Lin Tianchen brazenly launched a winter offensive!"
"Past battle reports from the Tiger Guards show that whenever they take action... there's always a fight... Should we open fire first?"
This staff officer's request made Carl and others standing on the city gate tower look extremely solemn.
The two people who were talking excitedly just now fell silent.
Are they stronger than the Japanese?
Do they have an advantage now?
If they dared to say that they were stronger than the Japanese, or had an advantage, why were they beaten back step by step in Diandi? Moreover, this part of the Japanese was generally recognized to be weaker than the Kwantung Army.
But they were defeated by the Japanese in Diandi and retreated all the way to Tianzhu.
Lin Tianchen, you can’t think with common sense at all!
Carl thought of the information he had obtained about Lin Tianchen, and couldn't help but feel a strong sense of crisis in his heart.
When reminded by the staff officer, Ham frowned even more tightly.
"When the Tiger Guards first arrived in Yunnan, none of us expected them to launch a direct attack. The Nantian Gate was breached in a day and a night, leading to their defeat."
Ham thought seriously in his heart, and couldn't help but look at the Tiger Guards who were building a position in the distance.
Do the Tiger Guards dare to attack?
He didn't even need to look for the answer in his mind, because the Tiger and Leopard Army would definitely dare to attack.
"Another telegram to... headquarters: The Tiger Guards are about to start a war! Do you want to hold on... quickly!!"
Carl hesitated for a long time, and finally, as if he had let out a sigh of relief, he roared at the messenger.
