Chapter 509: A lavish funeral for Liu Fang, a devastating blow
Ten minutes later, the atmosphere in the headquarters suddenly became extremely solemn. A gunshot broke the silence, shocking everyone's heart.
Chai An turned around in astonishment. He had already walked to the street and ran towards the headquarters like a madman. He came to Liu Fang's residence and pushed the door open. He saw Liu Fang lying quietly on the ground, blood oozing from his chest, staining the ground red. The gun in his hand was still emitting smoke, as if telling of his final determination and resolve.
Chai An felt as if his heart was being cut by a knife. He knelt down beside Liu Fang, tears welling up in his eyes: "Commander, why are you like this..."
At this time, the expeditionary army outside the city had already begun to enter the city. As the new commander, Chen Tong walked into the command center with firm steps. When he saw the scene in front of him, he was stunned at first, then walked forward and looked at Liu Fang's body in silence.
After a moment, Chen Tong spoke, his voice low and powerful: "Come, give Liu Fang a respectful burial! He may not be a good man, but he must be a good general who loves his soldiers like his own sons." His words revealed his respect and recognition for Liu Fang, and also reflected his fair evaluation of this opponent.
Afterwards, the expeditionary force began to enter the city in an orderly manner. They were strictly disciplined and did not harm the people in the city. The soldiers took the initiative to help the people repair their houses, clean up the streets, and even took out their own food to distribute to the people.
Their behavior surprised and pleased the people, and gradually, the people began to trust these soldiers who came from afar.
In the square in the city, the expeditionary army set up a temporary disaster relief station. They not only provided food and clothing for the people, but also arranged medical teams to treat the wounded. People came to receive relief supplies, and their faces showed long-lost smiles and gratitude.
You know, during this period of time, the extremely hungry defenders in the city began to break into people's homes without scruples, stealing their food and supplies, making them afraid of these soldiers like tigers.
Chen Tong also came to the square in person to communicate with the people. He explained to them the purpose and aim of the expeditionary army, emphasizing that they came for peace and justice. As the people listened to him, their doubts gradually dissipated, replaced by respect and trust for the army.
Chen Tong stood in the square in the city, facing the many people who had gathered, his voice was loud and firm. The sunlight shone on him, as if he was covered with a golden halo, adding a bit of majesty and solemnity.
"My fellow villagers, we have always shared the same blood and are family." His words were full of affection and sincerity; every word touched people's hearts and stirred up waves.
The people listened to Chen Tong's words, and hope shone in their eyes. Many of them had suffered from wars and were displaced and had a hard life since Fusang entered here. At this moment, Chen Tong's words were like a warm current that warmed their hearts.
"Please believe in the Dahua government. We will establish a new regime here and bring you truly good days!" Chen Tong's voice became more passionate, and his hands clenched into fists, as if he wanted to pass all his determination and strength to everyone present.
The people were moved by Chen Tong's words, their emotions were ignited, and they burst into warm cheers. These cheers gathered into a huge wave of sound, echoing in the sky above the city, as if announcing the arrival of a new era.
Amid the cheers, Chen Tong showed a gratified smile on his face. He knew that these people needed more than just verbal promises, but also practical actions to prove it. He would lead the expeditionary force to fulfill his promise with practical actions and bring true peace and happiness to the people here.
At this moment, the people in the city seemed to see hope for the future. They believed that under the leadership of Chen Tong, they would have a better future. Chen Tong also knew that this trust was hard-won, and he would cherish it and repay this trust with practical actions.
Inside Liuxi City, the frontline combat command room was brightly lit, filled with maps, sand tables and various communication equipment.
The officers of the expeditionary force gathered together, each of them with a serious look on his face.
Hu Xiu was the first to break the silence.
He stood up, pointed at the Liubei area on the sand table, and said in a loud voice: "Commander, the current Southern Government has reached the point of lingering on and at the end of its rope. We must strike while the iron is hot, march directly to the Liubei area, and overthrow the Southern regime in one fell swoop." There was a sharp light flashing in his eyes, as if he had seen the dawn of victory.
Yu Hang also nodded in agreement. He added: "Old Hu is right. Fuso has also suffered a series of heavy blows and is unable to protect itself. It is unlikely to provide assistance to the Southern Government. The Southern Government is no longer able to resist our military force. Now is a good time for us to capture it in one fell swoop."
Chen Tong listened to the two people's speeches quietly. His eyes were deep, as if he was thinking about a more far-reaching strategy. After a moment, he slowly spoke: "When the news of Liuxi City spreads to the Wanbei area, the officers and soldiers in the Southern Government's troops will definitely waver in their positions. After all, no one wants to continue to work for a regime with a bleak future. Therefore, we must adopt a soft and psychological approach to the Southern Government's troops."
He paused, and his tone suddenly became firm: "But before that, we must get rid of the bones first! Give them a fatal blow! Only by eliminating this external threat can we focus more on dealing with the Southern Government."
"Colonel Li Harman, I want to know how many goblet bombs your A Squadron has left?" Chen Tong cast a sharp gaze at Li Harman.
Li Haman, the Air Force colonel, had golden hair that shone in the sun. He was handsome and always had a cynical smile on his face. But at this moment, facing Chen Tong's question, he restrained his smile and became serious.
The expeditionary generals present all gave him enough respect. After all, the contribution made by the air force was obvious to all.
"We still have about thirty in reserve, Commander," he replied, his voice revealing his pride in the strength of the air force. He then added, "In addition, we also have a large number of high-explosive bombs, cluster bombs, and even white phosphorus bombs. These ammunitions are enough to support us in large-scale air force operations."
Chen Tong nodded, satisfied with Li Haman's answer. He pointed to the location of Liunan City on the sand table, with a hint of coldness in his eyes: Liunan is the base of the Fuso Liudao Corps. According to the intelligence we have received, there are almost no civilians in the entire Liunan. The Fuso people regard the local civilians as slaves and imprison them in concentration camps outside the city. This is a great opportunity, Colonel Li Haman, I want your air force to launch an air strike on Liunan and completely blow up the base of the Liudao Corps. "
When Li Haman heard this, a glimmer of excitement flashed in his eyes.
For him, commanding the air force to deal a devastating blow to the enemy is the most exciting thing.
"No problem, Commander. I will immediately organize the air force to make preparations to ensure that this air strike will be a complete success." He said confidently.
