Chapter 355 New Year Offensive
Anzhou front.

The front command post was bustling with people and staff officers coming in and out everywhere.

The clock hand points to 0 o'clock, the New Year's Eve and New Year's Eve.

Li Yunlong looked at Ding Wei and the head of the 38th Army.

"Shall we begin?"

"Let's start! Let's celebrate the new year with an unprecedented firepower coverage!" Ding Wei said with some ease.

"Lao Ding, Lao Li, you will have to work hard from now on!" The head of the 38th Army said to them with a complicated expression.

"Fighting for the country is not hard at all. Lao Liang, our retreat is in your hands. When we reach Pingcheng, the three of us brothers will go in together!" Li Yunlong looked at Lao Liang and knew what he was thinking.

They were the main force in other troops, but after guarding here for so long, they are only destined to play supporting roles. As a soldier, they are naturally very unwilling to accept this.

Since the 38th Army is also going to take the lead this time, Li Yunlong might as well give them a chance.

"That's great! I'll talk to that old guy Lao Zhao and ask him to come up earlier so that I can catch up with you with the baggage." Lao Liang was overjoyed and took advantage of Li Yunlong's show of goodwill.

According to the combat plan, this time the target was the 38th Line. As the 38th Army, their mission was to push the defense line forward after Li Yunlong and Ding Wei captured Pingcheng. The 40th Army behind them would fill in and replace the 38th Army to form the second line of defense.

This plan of advancing step by step is naturally a very safe approach.

The biggest advantage is that the logistics supply lines are always strongly guaranteed.

Ren Zhong repeatedly emphasized to them the sufferings they had endured in the main world's history and time, just like brainwashing them.

Therefore, in this time and space, the brigade commander personally took on this important task and became the general manager coordinating the front and rear. With the qualifications of the brigade commander, naturally no one dared to shirk his responsibility. The motor vehicle transport troops that continued to join were gathering. As for the railways, they were controlled and repaired as soon as possible. Combined with the support of the Air Force, various measures ensured that the western railway artery of the peninsula was always unobstructed, and all kinds of resources were continuously transported to the front line by rail.

This allowed Li Yunlong and his men to have sufficient supplies to launch a battle that would terrify Rogue Eagle and his men!

If all goes well, this battle will be the final one!

Thousands of cannons have been pulled out of hiding and entered designated positions. According to the pre-planned combat plan, they all have their own targets to cover with artillery fire.

This time they were going to fire a base number of artillery shells, using tens of thousands of shells to thoroughly plow through the front-line positions of the Rogue Eagle Alliance.

Crush the coalition's defenses.

As three flares flashed in the night sky.

Thousands of prepared cannons roared almost at the same time!

The earth-shaking sound of artillery fire suddenly resounded across dozens of square kilometers of land on the Allied Forces' Anzhou front line.

Thousands of artillery shells whizzed towards the pre-designated enemy positions. The powerful firepower coverage fell on the defensive positions of the Confederate Army, Rogue Eagles and other coalition forces like a rainstorm. The hundreds of coalition troops on the positions had no time to hide and were left there forever in the first wave of shelling.

After such fierce artillery fire was launched, a convoy of more than a dozen vehicles quietly sneaked into the 3 or 4 kilometers range of the front line.

One of them was equipped with a strange object that looked like a full moon. It was the newly equipped artillery radar antenna. This was the anti-artillery unit of Li Yunlong and Ding Wei's troops. The 107/122 rocket artillery battalion, which was originally responsible for firepower coverage in the combat sequence, was now put into anti-artillery! Their mission was naturally to discover and destroy the enemy's artillery positions as quickly as possible.

As the most mobile and flexible strike force in the army, rocket artillery can move forward along with the artillery radar, detecting and destroying at any time!

By fully utilizing the characteristics of rocket artillery's great power and wide coverage, it will pose a deadly threat to the enemy's artillery that is about to counterattack.

On a night like this, the coalition forces had to fire several rounds to determine the approximate range of our artillery positions. However, with the artillery radar, we could quickly determine the enemy's artillery positions within 30 seconds, with an accuracy of 50 meters, completely ignoring the influence of weather and the constraints of night.

After the enemy opened fire, they had no time to move, and the entire artillery position became the target of our counter-artillery!
Rogue Eagle Front.

Almost all the battalions and regiments on the front line frantically called the headquarters for help.

Faced with a bombardment of this scale, one could easily guess that the enemy was preparing for a large-scale attack.

Their positions had no power to resist the bombardment, so they had to request artillery support. Now the only ones who could fight against the artillery were the artillery!
Soon, these calls for help were gathered at the Pingcheng Allied Forces' Northern Command, making the commander-in-chief, Lieutenant General Walker, feel overwhelmed.

"Have the Dragon people gone crazy? They don't even need to celebrate the Chinese New Year, but they launched an attack on their New Year's Eve. This is simply outrageous!" A staff officer said indignantly, "This is their New Year, don't they need to celebrate the Chinese New Year?"

"Shut up! Order our artillery and tank units to prepare for a counterattack! We must give the enemy an unforgettable memory when they attack!" Lieutenant General Walker waved his hand in annoyance, stopping the staff officer's incompetent rage and gave orders to the combat staff.

"Request support from the commander-in-chief for the air force and navy. When daybreak comes, I want to see the air force over the position. The number must be large enough to overwhelm the Dragon Country's air force. Since they want to fight, we will have a decisive battle over Anzhou!"

Admiral Walker had had enough.

Their reinforcements and equipment had just arrived, and they hadn't even had time to launch a war of revenge, but their opponents had taken the initiative. How could they tolerate the feeling of being slapped in the face before they could even throw a punch?
"Walker, maybe we should reconsider our battle plan." General Kendall said slowly.

"Judging from this extraordinary artillery coverage, the enemy has concentrated at least a thousand artillery pieces. This is just the front line of Anzhou. In Daxing, the enemy has concentrated more than 600 artillery pieces. Judging from the situation, this is a sign of launching a full-scale offensive.

The scary thing is that we don't even know how many troops the opponent will put into the attack. Our intelligence department now knows nothing about the deployment of the high-level troops of the Dragon Country. In terms of intelligence, the Eastern Black Hole is well-deserved, which is too passive for us.

If the enemy throws their main 16th, 17th and 18th armies into the attack, it can be basically confirmed that the enemy's plan is definitely not limited to Anzhou and Daxing."

Kendall analyzed calmly.

Lieutenant General Walker was shocked. To be honest, they had basically no psychological expectations for this sudden battle. After all, the traditional Eastern New Year was approaching, and even those idiots in the Southern Army were celebrating the New Year. They even lifted the ban tonight and gave everyone a bottle of soju to celebrate!
Who could have thought that when everyone was preparing to celebrate the New Year happily, the opponent actually launched an attack without any moral principles!
The Anzhou defense line now includes Rogue Eagle's 28nd Infantry Division, John Bull's th Brigade, the Chicken Brigade, and the Confederate Army's nd Infantry Division and rd Infantry Division.

The deployment of more than 5 troops may not be enough for attacking, but it should be enough for defense for a while. After all, their direct opponent is only the 38th Army, which has a total of more than 5 troops.

No one thought that the other side would launch a new round of fighting.

But tonight's shelling clearly proved them all wrong.

It was obvious that the enemy's reinforcements had arrived secretly.

Therefore, the original defense plan must be reconsidered based on the current new situation.

Second update, please vote! Daniel and Edward, please support me. I don’t have 500 votes this month, which is a bit embarrassing.
