On the way to Tianjin, Chief of Staff Wang and the commander of the Second Brigade were chatting leisurely in the command vehicle.

"As soon as our troops arrive in Tianjin and successfully meet up with the Third Brigade, we will immediately launch action." There was determination in Chief of Staff Wang's eyes.

"Chief of Staff, aren't we waiting for orders from the division commander and higher-ups?" asked the commander of the Second Brigade with some doubt.

"Haha, once the war breaks out, where will we have time to wait for orders? We must be good at seizing opportunities, so that we can succeed!" Chief of Staff Wang smiled, his words revealing his precise grasp of fighter planes.

"Well, I guess the enemy in Tianjin has already known about our actions. This battle may be difficult to fight." The expression of the commander of the Second Brigade became serious.

"After all, it's a big city with a large population and complicated situations. The situation is indeed difficult to control." Chief of Staff Wang took a deep breath and frowned slightly.

"But it doesn't matter. We will investigate the situation first. Besides, the 1st Division of the North China Army is also nearby. With them around, we won't dare to attack with all our strength." The commander of the 2nd Brigade said with a hint of relief in his tone.

"That's right. At that time, we can use our superior firepower to break through the enemy's defenses one by one." Chief of Staff Wang's eyes were full of confidence and expectation.

Just as they were having a heated discussion, the communicator ran over, saw the two officers chatting, saluted and said.

"Telegrams from the Chief of Staff, Brigade Commander, and Division Commander."

After stopping the car, Chief of Staff Wang quickly took the telegram and began to read it.

His expression gradually became solemn, and a hint of worry appeared in his eyes.

The commander of the Second Brigade looked at Chief of Staff Wang's expression and asked anxiously, "What happened?"

Chief of Staff Wang was silent for a moment, then slowly said: "The situation has changed, and we need to readjust our combat plan." The atmosphere in the car suddenly became tense, the commander of the Second Brigade frowned, and the two men fell into deep thought.

"The North China Army has agreed to let us enter Tianjin. I guess the document will soon be in the hands of the Third Brigade Commander."

"Well, that's good. I thought something had happened. Now we can take action against Xiao Rizi."

Chief of Staff Wang said to the signalman, "Notify them that the tank and armored battalions can go first to join the Third Brigade, and we will follow later."

"Yes, Chief of Staff."

The signalman went to convey the order.

Soon the tank battalion commander and the armored vehicle battalion commander received the notice.

They were asked to advance quickly and meet up with the Third Brigade as quickly as possible.

The two immediately contacted the Third Brigade via the radio to determine their specific location, and after determining the direction through the map, they immediately started moving forward.

The commander of the Third Brigade was also very anxious at the moment. He was furious when he saw Takeda, the bad guy, but his heavy firepower was not nearby. He walked back and forth in a hurry.

Suddenly the communications soldier came to report.

"Brigade Commander, the tank battalion and the armored vehicle battalion will come to support us in advance. They have already determined our location. The three artillery battalions and the people from the Second Brigade will arrive later."

After hearing the signalman's words, he suddenly felt confident.

Takeda had been observing through a telescope on the opposite side. When he saw the smile on the face of the Third Brigade Commander of the Security Division, he knew something was wrong. It seemed that the other side had gained confidence, which meant that support would arrive soon.

He immediately notified the brigade commander of the garrison army and asked the remaining troops to prepare for battle.

At present, there are still 3,000 troops stationed in Tianjin, which is the size of a regiment. It is conservative to send a battalion today.

Although it is the size of a wing, the commander here is not the wing commander.

This is also to facilitate command when more troops are added later.

According to intelligence, they also have three infantry battalions, an artillery squadron, and a transport squadron.

Each squadron has four guns. The artillery of the regiment artillery squadron is mainly equipped with 75mm field guns, which can provide a firepower strike depth of more than 5 kilometers. The rapid-fire gun squadron is equipped with 37mm rapid-fire guns.

Each of the three infantry battalions has an artillery squad equipped with two Type 2 infantry guns.

Therefore, Tianjin Xiaori still has more than ten artillery pieces, and they cannot be relaxed about such firepower.

This does not include the grenade launchers in the infantry squad, which have a caliber of 50mm and mainly provide close combat firepower within 100 to 500 meters.

The commander of the Third Brigade naturally also received the information soon, and told others after reading it.

"Let's wait for our chief of staff to come. There won't be much change here. Even if Xiao Ri goes crazy, it won't have much power."

"Well, then we should surround Takeda's group and never let them go back."

"Haha, you understand me."

Takeda became even more anxious when he saw the Third Brigade Commander chatting with his staff. It was obvious that he was not worried about his people.

At this moment, in the Xiao Ri Zi Consulate in Peking, the consul is communicating with the country.

He reported an urgent situation, that is, part of the North China Garrison Army in Peking had been wiped out.

The 3000 people in Tianjin may not be safe either, as they are equipped with all American equipment, which is very advanced.

There are so many tanks and artillery that our ordinary army is currently unable to compete with them in terms of numbers.

We request clear instructions from the country. Should the three divisions continue to move forward?

This news has been learned by the enemy and made public. Other countries should know about it and they will contact the country. I hope you can give clear instructions.

He sent the telegram urgently.

But he had an idea and did not use the original code book. Instead, he sent it using his own code book.

He couldn't believe whether there was a traitor in his ranks or there was something wrong with the code book.

When he sent the telegram, MI6 had already received it, but it was not translated through the code book.

After reading it, Stationmaster Qiao realized that the people in the consulate did not use the universal code book.

However, they were not in a hurry to start the intensive deciphering work. Even if they used a new code book, as long as there was a pattern to follow, there was still a chance.

At this moment, Commander Zhang was talking to Commander Wang, and they were nervously discussing the follow-up development of this matter.

"The current situation has become such that we cannot allow the situation to escalate further."

"I know that people from various consulates have already returned. They may have already contacted their country. Let's wait and see what the great powers say."

"Ignore them for now. We must make two preparations. The first is to cool down the environment. You must immediately order Zhao Yun's First Security Division to leave Peking and Tianjin."

"The second plan is that if the three divisions land and they force an attack and a conflict occurs, then let the First Security Division attack with all its strength."

"Then where should I arrange for them to go?"

"You can call back your weak forces, focus on training, and let the security guards take over. That will be enough. Let them fight against those gangsters and bandits."

"Are you talking about the no-man's land that is currently a vacuum zone?"

"Yes, this is it. This is the most suitable place for them to stay."

"Then let me think about this matter. Let's proceed according to these two plans first."

"Remember, once the powers get involved, we must make a decision and not allow a major conflict to occur."

"Commander Zhao has given us a half-year opportunity. We must seize this opportunity and train our own outstanding soldiers."
