Chapter 230: Fighting in the Demonic Capital
After Lu Chen and Green chatted for a while, the atmosphere between them eased a lot.
Lu Chen smiled and said, "Green, we have known each other for a long time and have cooperated with each other many times. We are all very happy. Let's stop talking about this today. I still have to go back to the factory."
Green also smiled and said, "Okay, let's talk next time."
After Lu Chen said goodbye to Green, he left the base and drove back to the arsenal alone.
As soon as Lu Chen arrived at the factory, he went straight to Li Qiang's office. Seeing Lu Chen rushing to him, Li Qiang couldn't help but ask:
"Boss, what's the matter that has you come to me in such a hurry?"
Lu Chen was so anxious because he wanted to confirm whether Li Qiang had sent the message. Lu Chen said to Li Qiang anxiously:
"Li Qiang, did you send the phone number I asked you to send to William?"
Li Qiang said, "It has been sent out. By the way, Boss, where did you get the news? Will Xiao Rizi really attack the Magic City in the near future?"
Hearing that Li Qiang had sent the message, Lu Chen breathed a sigh of relief. His elder brother would definitely be more vigilant after receiving the message he had sent. He should be prepared to fight Xiao Rizi.
Hearing Li Qiang's question, Lu Chen smiled and said, "This news was given to me by a trustworthy person. As for whether Xiao Rizi will really attack the Magic City in the near future, no one can say for sure. After all, I am not Xiao Rizi's commander."
"Is that so? Then should we send next month's weapons to Commander Wu in advance?"
"Needless to say, we must send it there in advance. This is when they need weapons and ammunition."
Lu Chen said anxiously.
Li Qiang nodded and said, "Okay, I'll arrange it right away."
After that, Li Qiang walked out of the office and headed towards the warehouse. After Li Qiang left, Lu Chen immediately picked up the phone and called the pharmaceutical factory. He asked the pharmaceutical factory to prepare a batch of penicillin for him. He also planned to have someone send it to his eldest brother.
After finishing all this, Lu Chen returned to the accommodation arranged by Li Qiang for him. He planned to stay here for a long time this time. Lu Chen would leave the Philippines only after making sure that Lu Jiaming had safely survived the war.
The time came to January 28th. History did not change because of Lu Chen's arrival. At 11:30 p.m. that day, Xiao Ri gathered more than 2,300 Marines, led by tanks, and launched an attack on the Demon City.
Lu Chen also informed Lu Jiaming in advance, so that Lu Jiaming could prepare. Facing Xiao Rizi's attack, Lu Jiaming pulled out more than 88 Type cannons that Lu Chen had sent him, and directly bombarded Xiao Rizi with cannonballs, beating him so hard that he cried for his parents.
When the team leader Muto Shigan heard the battle report that half of the more than 2,000 attackers were killed by artillery fire and most of the tanks were destroyed, he was so angry that he drew his samurai sword and started slashing around the office.
He shouted to his adjutant:
"What are those people in the intelligence department doing? Didn't they say that the garrison had no heavy weapons? How come there are more than 20 artillery pieces suddenly? Go and call the head of the intelligence department to me."
Soon, a little boy with a pointed face and monkey cheeks ran in and said to Muto Zhigang:
"Colonel, you are looking for me."
Muto Shigan looked at the intelligence officer who came in angrily and shouted:
"Lieutenant Harada, why didn't the intelligence you gave me tell me that the garrison of the Demon City has more than 20 artillery pieces?"
Harada was very surprised and said to Muto Shigan: "Colonel, the intelligence was passed to us by those people from the Special High Technology Department. It did not say that the garrison troops had artillery."
Muto Shigan immediately cursed: "Baga, are those people in the Special High Technology Department all idiots? Without heavy firepower, where did the cannon sounds on the battlefield come from? I believed their lies and dared to send troops directly. Now more than half of my troops have been killed or wounded, and all the tanks have been lost. I'm going to ask the people in the Special High Technology Department for an explanation."
Before Muto Zhigang called, the Special High Technology Department was already in a mess. There was something wrong with their intelligence. The intelligence said that Lu Jiaming's unit was an infantry division with only a few small-caliber mortars. But the sound of the artillery just now proved that these were not small-caliber artillery, but large-caliber artillery. And there were no less than 20 of them. This was a serious mistake on their part.
The chief of the Special High Technology Department is now in the office scolding his subordinates.
Unlike Xiao Rizi, Lu Jiaming was very relaxed now. When he first received the news from Lu Chen, he was a little bit unconvinced. He felt that Xiao Rizi had just occupied the Northeast and would definitely need some time to digest it. It was impossible for him to attack the Magic City again at this time.
But just to be on the safe side, he still had people pull out the twenty cannons that Lu Chen had sent. If Xiao Rizi really attacked the Magic City, these cannons would also buy him enough time to react.
And today, it was precisely because of this arrangement that he was able to inflict heavy damage on the Marine Corps that was attacking the Magic City.
Lu Jiaming sighed, "This time it's really thanks to Xiaochen, otherwise we might not be able to defend against the attack of this chariot."
Just as Lu Jiaming was sighing, officers of all ranks under his command came to him.
Seeing that everyone was present, Lu Jiaming immediately said to them:
"At 11:30 this evening, Xiao Rizi suddenly launched a sneak attack on us. Now Xiao Rizi's first wave of attack has been repelled by our brothers on the front line. But Xiao Rizi will definitely launch a more fierce attack next time. So I ordered."
When Lu Jiaming said "order", the officers in the hall immediately stood at attention and listened quietly to what Lu Jiaming would say next.
Lu Jiaming continued:
"The entire division is now in combat mode. Order the First Brigade to immediately support the front line. The Second and Third Brigades immediately begin to build fortifications and establish a second line of defense. Wu Jie, your company immediately rushes to the artillery position and assists the artillerymen in their transfer. Next, Xiao Ri will definitely throw shells at our artillery position."
After the order was given, everyone immediately began to deploy troops and prepare to fight against Xiao Rizi's second wave of attack.
As Lu Jiaming guessed, Xiao Rizi immediately sent people to investigate Lu Jiaming's artillery position when he received the news that Lu Jiaming had another artillery unit. Just now, the Special High Technology Department received a piece of intelligence reporting the location of Lu Jiaming's artillery position.
The people from the Special High Technology Department immediately reported the intelligence to the commander of the battle, and then Xiao Rizi dispatched planes from the "Xiongdeng" seaplane carrier to begin bombing Lu Jiaming's artillery positions.
Fortunately, Lu Jiaming gave the order in time and ordered people to withdraw the fire from the position. Otherwise, Lu Chen's more than 20 artillery pieces would have been scrapped.
