The defense on Dawn Island is quite good, not only with a City Guard Corps, but also Ye Fan has repeatedly supplented anti-aircraft firepower after gaining wealth.
Many missile defense systems have been deployed, and when rocket attacks occur, the missile defense systems are fired.
Several consecutive interceptions were successful, the enemy did not launch many rockets, and their accuracy was not very good.
However, after the interceptions, the white smoke far away in the sky made Ye Fan’s heart leap.
Because that was the gas bomb he witnessed yesterday.
Fortunately, the landing points were inaccurate, and today’s wind direction blew north, not affecting Dawn Island.
But Ye Fan gritted his teeth and said, "Damn bastards! How dare they use gas bombs to attack Dawn Island? Are they tired of living?"
By Ye Fan’s side, Chief of Staff Zhongjing thought for a mont: "Sir, I think these rocket attacks are more like a threat and warning to us, otherwise their accuracy wouldn’t be so off."
"Oh! What is their purpose in threatening us like this?"
Zhongjing had a rough idea: "It should be to provoke us, especially you, so they can wait at ease on the battlefield for our Dawn Army to attack. After all, yesterday’s battle cost them a lot, and they likely lack the courage to continue offensive operations."
"They want us to take the initiative to attack?"
Ye Fan thought about it and felt that Zhongjing made a lot of sense.
This ti the rocket attack is a warning. If we don’t attack, they will launch more next ti, choosing weather with favorable wind direction, turning Dawn Island into hell on earth.
Even if I retaliate with a Mushroom Bomb then, the losses would be inevitable.
So I am indeed compelled, and must take the initiative to attack.
"Chu Yuan’s group is quite cunning, they’ve figured out that my troops are insufficient, right? Then I’ll give them a surprise."
Ye Fan also knew his tens of thousands attacking their positions with eight or nine hundred thousand would stand no chance.
But if tens of thousands suddenly beco over a hundred thousand unexpectedly, it would be different.
Ye Fan had a ship dock and a landing craft transport the base vehicles from Dawn Island.
After deploying by the river, he first built a Power Plant, then constructed a Crack Generator.
This thing, when built, can’t be detected by radar within ten kiloters, cloaked under a layer of fog.
This layer of mist seed natural, as it was morning, with fog along the river, giving the impression of the fog suddenly getting thicker.
After construction, Ye Fan supplented twenty Barracks inside the fog, then started producing troops on the spot.
Two thousand troops for a field brigade, costing four million Gold if all are ordinary Army Soldiers.
But it also requires many Advanced Soldier Types and various vehicles, putting the actual construction price at about eleven million Gold.
Ye Fan went all out, directly replenishing five field brigades!
Fifty-five million Gold!
The one hundred thousand troops from these five field brigades beca the Dawn Army’s Second Division.
The previous five field brigades rged together, forming the Dawn Army’s First Division.
Despite the size of one hundred thousand, Ye Fan’s current production speed was very fast.
The twenty Barracks simultaneously producing troops, production couldn’t rely be described as being quick — rather, twenty soldiers were produced every second.
One hundred thousand soldiers were produced in less than two hours!
The previous 180 million plus Gold is now down to 130 million.
But this is the largest troop production, replenishing one hundred thousand soldiers at once.
The total number of the Dawn Army also broke through to 290,000, not far from the 300,000 mark.
New recruits imdiately joined the battle.
Ye Fan didn’t want to wait. If these people were truly cornered and used gas bombs to attack Dawn Island, it would be troubleso.
So there’s no half-asures, the Dawn Army’s First Division, the first and second field brigades took action first, covered by the armored regint.
Apocalypse Tanks one by one deployed again, Red Alert Soldiers advancing together.
The Dawn Army’s Second Division’s one hundred thousand troops also joined the battle lineup.
Seven field brigades, alongside armored troops, artillery, a full 150,000 troops, ready for battle.
This massive combat group is the largest deploynt since the establishnt of the Dawn Army.
After all, the Dawn Army is truly elite, not a rabble. These hundreds of thousands are enough to handle at least fifty thousand enemies and more.
This attack, even the Dawn Army’s leaders believe Ye Fan is focusing major efforts on ground combat.
But only Ye Fan and a few senior leaders know that the land attack is just a prelude.
.....
"Report to the Young Marshal! Dawn Army’s massive troop assembly discovered!"
"Oh! How many troops?"
"At least over one hundred thousand!"
Upon hearing this number, even Chu Yuan, who was still studying the battle plans, was taken aback.
The Dawn Army is indeed strong, but everyone has a rough idea of their troop numbers.
From Divine Dragon Province to Dawn Island, across a long distance of over ten thousand kiloters, the total force of the Dawn Army should not exceed two hundred thousand.
Based on the information they have, the Dawn Army has stationed troops in Divine Dragon Province, Fengtian Province, Inner Bay Area, Qi Lu Province, and other places.
It seems that only three main brigades, along with so other units, have returned to Dawn Island and Loose Province for battle, totaling only about a hundred thousand.
Now there’s still garrison on Dawn Island, and fighting in the Jiangbei Region and Mountain River Base Huaihai Base has not ceased, where did these additional fifty thousand co from?
At this mont, Chu Yuan wished he could strangle the head of the intelligence departnt.
Such a huge hidden recruitnt by the Dawn Army went unnoticed, what’s the point of keeping that brain?
It’s unclear how effective this new unit is, but if they possess the capability of seasoned troops, then his side could be in so trouble.
Nevertheless, Chu Yuan wasn’t too worried; after all, his side still had over a million troops and vast terrains, not so easy to fail.
He even suspected that the Dawn Army was sowhat bluffing, himself impossible to fret over just tens of thousands.
Air and naval forces remain motionless, maintaining pressure on Dawn’s air and naval force, making it hard for them to easily engage.
Quickly, the frontline battle comnced.
Chu Yuan took charge and commanded, several base leaders also took to the front, directing their forces against the Dawn Army.
As gunfire erupted, reports ca flooding in continuously.
"Report! A unit of the Dawn Army has breached Jiangnan Base’s defense position, over thirty thousand from Jiangnan Base have been annihilated, Xu Wei leader requests reinforcents!"
"Report, Young Marshal, a division from Lingnan Base engaged head-on with the Dawn Army, fierce battle for an hour, Lingnan’s main division has reduced by over forty percent and started to retreat."
"Report, Young Marshal, our No.3 post under Dawn’s artillery attack, a regint is fiercely assaulting under tank cover, assault is quite intense, our regint commander requests reserve reinforcents!"
"Report, Young Marshal, our surprise squad got found while sneaking Dawn Army’s back route, three thousand troops wiped out!"
Reports stread in, almost none were favorable.
This made blue veins pop on Chu Yuan’s forehead, didn’t expect the Dawn Army to actually an business.
Their troops indeed exceeded a hundred thousand, around one hundred fifty thousand, divided into multiple attack arrows, boldly attacking his side’s positions.
This incensed Chu Yuan greatly, one hundred fifty thousand attacking roughly ninety thousand positions clearly belittles his side’s combat capability.
But reality is laid here, his side is about six tis the Dawn Army’s strength, yet in the spectacle, ends up passive.
This disparity rankled Chu Yuan, who finally couldn’t hold back, personally began commanding combat, ordering Jiangzhou troops to step in.
In Chu Yuan’s view, his side’s combined four forces wielded Jiangzhou’s as strongest, next is Lingnan’s.
Bashu’s forces are strong too, but was crushed by Dawn Army’s trick, placing third.
Jiangnan’s forces being worst becos almost a drag now.
On the field, Dawn Army overall pushes forward, full on depression hitting his side greatly affecting morale.
Chu Yuan knows, he must turn a particular battle ear here, shattering Dawn Army’s invincible myth, else foresee greater difficulties.
Quickly, Chu Yuan devised a counterattack battle.
A Dawn Army unit, approximately two regints strong, just captured one of his positions under tank and artillery cover, now adjusting for next assault.
While Chu Yuan promptly assembled two main divisions, totaling sixty thousand, launching a counterattack on this post under armor regint and artillery regint’s cover!
Must annihilate Dawn’s two regints or recapture this post, definitely a huge morale booster for the entire army, he needed this now.
While launching the attack, he also coordinated other forces to engage, delivering fire containnt on surrounding Dawn Army.
For at least two hours, he couldn’t allow Dawn reinforcents to arrive, within two hours, his sixty thousand couldn’t possibly not resolve Dawn’s eight thousand.
......
"Jiangzhou’s troops finally ca."
Ye Fan watching the radar screen saw a massive enemy force gathering towards the No.3 post direction.
No.3 post, located in the central-east of the entire battlefield, is a small hill.
Can overlook the central battlefield from here, Ye Fan directly dispatched two elite regints to seize this post.
His Guard Corps, and the Army’s special team, the Blaze.
These two elite regints, alongside one hundred Three-star Apocalypse Tanks and partial artillery support, finally captured this post.
Reasonably, two regints defending this post seed a bit thin, but Ye Fan firmly insisted this.
He sought to bait Jiangzhou troops, letting them attack.
This is an iron nail, absolutely can’t let Jiangzhou remove it, especially without dispatching reinforcents.
Typically, combat regints would struggle, but these two elite regints, Ye Fan trusted they could.
Only this way would tell Chu Yuan the disparity in combat capability, leading his subsequent forces to engage in battle.
Once their naval and air forces move, the Celestial River’s confrontation balance between the two sides breaks, which is Ye Fan’s awaited chance.
