In the south side of Yanbei, Teng's division defeated the garrison brigade, after defeating the garrison brigade, he had always wanted to advance, break through the defense area of ​​the Self-Defense Army, and approached the city of Yanbei. However, the Self-Defense Army's defensive attitude was beyond imagination and its combat capability was much stronger than expected, so the two sides fought fiercely for several days, and no one could do anything about anyone.

During this period, the Gu Corps Command issued orders to the 27th Field Division several times, ordering the division commander Tan Zhongshu to detour from Hucha and lead his army to support Fatty Teng, but the 27th Division was very slow to move, and even after arriving at Hucha around today, it suddenly stopped moving.

...

Xingshan battlefield, inside the command center of Fat Teng.

"Damn, hasn't this Tan Zhongshu replied yet?" Fatty Teng hadn't closed his eyes for several days. His eyes were scarlet and his face turned pale, but his spirit was very excited and scolding: "Is he riding a tricycle? Even if you ride a tricycle, you should have reached the target location at this time."

"I just contacted their division headquarters, but now I can't contact Tan Zhongshu. Their staff said that Tan Zhongshu deployed troops at the forefront and has not responded to the call." The chief of staff frowned and said, "The road around Hucha is indeed difficult to walk, and there is also the self-defense army's garrison area. They were moving slowly before, which is understandable. But now the 27th Division has suddenly stopped moving when it comes to Hucha. Then... the situation is a bit subtle."

Fatty Teng is a radical commander, but this does not mean that he is brainless: "What is our headquarters' attitude?"

"The order has been issued, let us retreat." The chief of staff pointed to the sand table and said, "Look, the current situation is that in the Hucha area, we have about 50,000 people who have not moved. In the direction of Qufu behind us, there are more than 20,000 troops staring at Xinyang, but they have not moved. Currently, there are only the Mixed Brigade and our division, as well as several regiments. Including the Mixed Brigade, our troops have invested about 30,000 troops to fight. Add to these, we can use about 100,000 troops. What about the other side? The Self-Defense Army has more than 40,000 people, Guo Yu has more than 30,000 people, and the 415th Division in the Second World War Zone, as well as the direct division of the General Political Department and the following regiments, at least 110,000 troops. By the way, they also have a Blank Force of the General Political Department."

Fatty Teng looked at the sand table without saying a word.

The Chief of Staff pointed to Hucha's entry point and said, "Suppose, if there is a problem with Tan Zhongshu at this point, one will rise and fall, and our situation may be..."

Fatty Teng instantly understood the Chief of Staff’s meaning: “Damn it, listen to the headquarters and let the troops retreat in an orderly manner. I want to see what can happen.”

The Chief of Staff nodded slowly and sighed unconsciously: "Our commander wins in the pattern and is also trapped in the pattern. If we don't care about the Northwest Line now, we will let Gu Yan lead three divisions and 50,000 troops back, and the situation will be reversed in an instant. Our troops' bloodline is pure. With the advantage of military strength, will there be any disadvantages to fighting the opponent's temporary interest groups?! I personally think that this war can be resolved in at most two months."

"Ah!" Fat Teng also sighed: "If he really does that, he can't be the commander of the Gu Corps. If Gu Yan wants to withdraw from the northwest, the Pu Corps will definitely carry out massacres online. Anyway, they are not affiliated with any major region and do not care about reputation. In addition, with the protection of the five districts, the Asian League cannot do anything to them. But what trend will the public opinion outside be?! In order to fight for power in order to fight a civil war, the Gu Corps will fight for power, regardless of the life or death of the people in the planning area, and there is also suspicion of war... Alas, this gun and cannon cannot kill us, but the people can do it! If you want to take this step, military victory is only one aspect, and the people's centripetal force is also one aspect."

The Chief of Staff was speechless.

Fat Teng stood up and said, "Order the troops to retreat, I want to see what will happen to Hucha."

"Okay!" the Chief of Staff nodded.

...

About half an hour later.

After a long time, Fatty Teng's division also withdrew from the battlefield on the south side of Yanbei. The Self-Defense Forces chased for about fifty kilometers before stagnating.

After the news of this retreat spread, the outside world was in an uproar.

The Mixed Brigade and the New Army confronted each other and ended in a crushing defeat.

Fatty Teng attacked Yanbei with murderous aura. After fighting for a few days, it had no effect. Now he has retreated in a mess.

The answers given to the outside world by both battlefields were very unsatisfactory. From this moment on, the Gu family seemed to have fallen into a comprehensive disadvantage.

Guo Yu's new army led his troops north, took a detour from Yanbei, and then penetrated to the west side, and was about to advance into Hucha.

At the same time, more than 40,000 members of the Self-Defense Army gathered and formed a coalition force of nearly 70,000 with Guo Yu, staring at Hucha with a fierce look.

Hucha is the foundation of the Gu Group Corps. Their Zhu family granary is here, and the main force of more than 50,000 people is also here. Therefore, after Guo Yu's new first army and the Self-Defense Force merged, their strategic intentions were already very obvious. They were not ready to defend, but wanted to attack.

Attack Hucha!

After more than 70,000 people gathered, Secretary-General Zhang also began to make efforts. He secretly contacted him and his last trump card.

...

Hucha Edge, within the 27th Division.

The teacher Tan Zhongshu wore gold wire glasses and exquisitely crafted Zhongshan outfit, and was in his hands, looking at the people in the conference room with a expressionless face.

"Terminal Commander, I think it's OK." The Chief of Staff pointed to the sand table and said, "Look, Guo Yu's new first army has arrived. It's on our north side, and below us is the Self-Defense Army of Yanbei Foreign. If we don't make a clear statement now, we may be eaten as soon as these two troops come up."

Tan Zhongshu had long thought of what the Chief of Staff said. He knew his situation, but he was just entangled.

Until now, the news that Gu Tai'an is dead or alive is still not confirmed. As an old general of the Gu Corps, Tan Zhongshu has always felt a sense of fear of Commander Gu. He always felt that if this old man was not dead, he would feel uneasy.

"Old Tan, now is not the time to hesitate." The deputy division commander also persuaded: "The headquarters has sent us several times, and Lao Teng has also contacted us many times, but we have not moved... This attitude is already very obvious. In addition, Guo Yu's new army has also come up. If he does not express his opinion at this time, the final result may be a frightened battle, both ends are not human."

"Yes, division commander, our troops are now sandwiched between the New First Army and the Gu Group. If we don't express our opinions, once friction starts, there is a great possibility that we will be eaten." The division chief also interrupted.

Tan Zhongshu slowly picked up the cigarette box, thought for a while and said: "Announce to the public to support the decision of Secretary-General Zhang of the General Political Department and attack Hucha."

The generals stood up after hearing the sound, saluted and shouted: "Support the teacher and support Secretary-General Zhang!"

...

late at night.

Through the General Political Department media of the Military Department, Tan Zhongshu openly announced that the 27th Field Division could not bear to the people in Yanbei, and formally supported Secretary-General Zhang's decision and sent troops to clear the Gu rebels.

As soon as this news came out, the outside world was in an uproar.
