Comrade, your ingredients are too complicated.

N1942A 6st Division Headquarters, June 12, 4.

As the saying goes, it takes brothers to fight tigers. In order to fully support the next stage of the airborne troops' combat plan, the border area decisively issued an order for cross-provincial joint operations to the fourth master in the south.

The specific telegram arrived at the Suzhong Military Region early the next morning.

"Division Commander, come and take a look! Taiyuan has an urgent message saying that our friendly forces in the north are making another big move. This time our main force will also join the battle!"

With the sound of steady footsteps, a handsome commander with obvious mixed-race features strode into the command post of the First Division.

This man is the Phoenix among the Four Masters, the only designated godfather of the gangs in Hubei and Jiangsu provinces, and even when Zhou Tai comes, he has to call him Brigade Commander Di, the Grandmaster.

Hearing the joyful shouts of his capable subordinate, 502, who was still looking at the map, put down the colored marker in his hand and said in a questioning tone:
"Huh? A combat mission in the north? Could it be that the Qilu Military Region, the fierce tiger in the forest, has made some big move, and they are finally going to attack the 12th Army?"

"Don't keep me in suspense. Bring the message over here right away."

"If we go north to support our friendly forces, I will have to plan the deployment of the troops and logistics. It is no easy task to march a large army."

From the perspective of 502, half of Henan Province has been liberated and there is no need for support from the Su-Zhong Military Region in the short term.

The Chahar region borders the Japanese, and a large-scale war could break out at any time. However, we are in central China, a long way from the future battlefield, and even if we want to help, we are out of reach.

So after eliminating the wrong options, the final answer naturally surfaced: war was about to break out in Shandong Province, and the Army Morale Wizards were preparing to send their First Division to help out.

It turns out that there is basically nothing wrong with 502's conjecture in the general direction.

After entering the combat meeting room, Brigade Commander Di answered directly:
"The border region has ordered our division to send out seven main regiments to arrive at the border between Jiangsu and Shandong provinces on the 26th of this month. The general has specifically emphasized that comrades must always be prepared for battle."

"The specific mission details are all in the telegram I have. Take a look for yourself."

As soon as these words came out, the commander of the First Division immediately stood up from his seat. He took the telegram handed over by Brigade Commander Di and then started to check it right there.

After a few minutes, 502 sighed silently.

He stretched out his right hand, and his five fingers first formed into claws, and then clenched into a fist.

"Seven main regiments, seven main regiments. It seems that with seven main regiments in hand, we can conquer the world! This mission is really not easy!"

"Pass my order to summon all commanders above the group level to a meeting at the division headquarters."

Since the Southern Incident, N4A has made major adjustments to its troop structure.

Currently, the entire army has seven French-equipped infantry divisions with three brigades and nine regiments, and the main force has a total of 160,000 troops.

Unlike the original timeline, the current Fourth Master has not experienced a reduction in military power and administration, and each main regiment is composed of elite troops with strong martial virtues and eager to fight.

However, the above-mentioned troops are not without shortcomings.

Due to the lack of direct air force and large-caliber guns, the attack capabilities and field encounter strength of each division are slightly insufficient. Once they engage in a firefight with the Japanese division-level units on open terrain such as plains, it will be difficult to control casualties.

There was no way. The border area had not yet fully mastered the Longhai Line, and air transport alone could not solve the fear of insufficient firepower among hundreds of thousands of troops.

Qualified pilots often require a long training period. Even if aviation schools across the country try their best to recruit students to provide blood transfusions for the Air Force, it will be difficult to form two more divisions in a short period of time.

This is why 502 is so worried. For a campaign-level commander who loves his soldiers like his own sons, unless it is a critical moment, he really does not want his soldiers to fight under the triple pressure of land, sea and air.

Just as everyone was deep in thought, a voice with a thick Sichuan dialect suddenly came from the door of the conference room.

"His heroic spirit penetrates the sun and the moon, and his heroic spirit shakes the earth."

"The 12th Japanese Army in Shandong Province has long been a grasshopper after autumn. Unless the main force of the Combined Fleet and the Kwantung Army come to their aid at the same time, even the Sky Locust cannot save them."

"In my name, draft a reply message stating that the Suzhong Military Region will arrive at the target area on time and strive to create a more favorable situation for the battle in Shandong Province!"

Everyone looked in the direction of the sound, and saw a man wearing sunglasses, with a resolute look on his face, walking into the combat meeting room. The man was none other than TG's only armored combat master in Awakening the Brave Tiger: 501!

Seeing their commander-in-chief in person, the comrades stood at attention and saluted, and gave up the main seats in the room.

After sitting down, the armored warfare master first drew a transportation route on the map with a pencil, and then explained in a relaxed tone:
"Regarding the border area's orders, I know your concerns. You are simply worried that the troops will run into the enemy's 32nd and 59th divisions head-on, right?"

"Don't worry, the Border Region and the Eighth Route Army Headquarters will certainly not miss anything that the Suzhong Military Region can think of."

"In order to strengthen the firepower and offensive capabilities of the First Division, I specially asked Lao Xu to transfer a field artillery regiment, a self-propelled rocket artillery regiment, an armored company and an anti-aircraft artillery company from Henan Province."

"How is it? Do you feel more at ease now? Seven main regiments cannot conquer everything, so what about seven infantry regiments, two artillery regiments and a support company?"

Upon hearing this, all the comrades present were delighted.

Especially Brigade Commander Di, a brilliant smile appeared on his handsome face.

When the battle officially begins, the First Brigade will most likely be the vanguard of the large force's attack. By then, he will also be able to experience the intensity of the support at the level of artillery coverage.

Who among the soldiers doesn’t like a big and thick barreled cannon?

The soldiers had long envied the firepower of the Eighth Route Army.

"Hehe, you are the one who thinks things through. I don't want the 100 heavy machine guns from last time. But please consider me for the selection of the main attack force."

Brigade Commander Di's self-recommendation immediately piqued the interest of the armored warfare master. Considering that the other party had a complete intelligence network, he thought for a moment and responded:
"Okay, anyway, your brigade has the strongest combat effectiveness in the First Division, so there's no problem letting you lead the attack."

"But this decision has nothing to do with those 4 heavy machine guns. You are not Li Yunlong, and I am not CG. We in NA do not engage in telecom fraud."

"Haha, great! Thank you, Commander-in-Chief!" (End of this chapter)
