Obviously, Du Hanming's approach made all the commanding mages suddenly realize as if they had been empowered, and they were not to be left behind.

As a result, the troops of the Fire Tree Dynasty, which had always been vulnerable in the war, suddenly became brave, and one by one the heroic troops bypassed the front line, regardless of the situation, regardless of the supply and logistics, and regardless of the unknown intelligence, they launched a surprise attack on the enemy in the rear.

The troops that were originally deployed on the front line did not react at the beginning, and kept complaining to the command center that some such and such troops had seized the offensive targets of the original such and such troops, and what such and such troops had disrupted the battle plan and advanced prominently, but they also quickly realized the truth of the matter, immediately gave up their complaints, and urged the troops to attack and advance.

By the time Ye Gao and the command center reacted, the entire front line was already in chaos.

All the troops rushed forward as if they were racing.

The original battle plan has long been forgotten.

The commanding mages were all red-eyed, robbing the village when they saw it, robbing the town when they saw it, and even if they saw a makeshift shack on the side of the road, they had to go in and scrape a layer of ground.

Ye Gao ordered a reprimand, strictly ordered all troops to return to their original positions and act according to the plan.

However, he is not Yang Zhenghua, he has no prestige in the eyes of these command mages, and he is not good at speaking, and now the combat mages have already grabbed the red eye, not to mention that Ye Gao is here, even if Yang Zhenghua comes, it will be difficult to gather the team for a while.

The battle mages in the command center were filled with indignation and volunteered to lead their troops to the front line to urge the troops to carry out their orders.

There is no way to do it.

However, Ye Gao soon found that the two mages he sent out to supervise the battle did not lead the team to supervise the troops, but ran to the front line to participate in the looting!

It's insane!

The entire operational command has collapsed.

And Ye Gao couldn't do anything about this situation.

He had even commanded the battle mage in the command center who was allowed to serve as a staff officer.

After Ye Gao's request to go to the front line to supervise the battle was rejected by Ye Gao, these staff officers found various excuses, slipped out of the command headquarters, led the team straight to the front line, and devoted themselves to the hot* cause.

As a result, less than twenty hours after Ye Gao took over from Yang Zhenghua to exercise command, he became a bare-bones commander.

His brother was the only one left in the entire command center, looking helplessly at the surveillance screen. He didn't dare to inform him of the situation.

This is tantamount to a denial of his abilities.

When Yang Zhenghua was commanding, everything was fine, why did you Ye Gao become the commander, and immediately became a mess, it is not your business, is it still the wrong decision-making of the company's leaders?

At this level, I still want to climb up, and I still want to command the troops, so let's go back to the rear and drink the northwest wind!

It's better to go back and drink the northwest wind, in case there is a big fire above, in order to kill the chickens and monkeys, it is not impossible to go directly to him to drive back to his hometown to eat himself!

In a dilemma, Ye Gao made a decision that was incomprehensible to normal people.

He decided to just watch from the command center, and of course in his own heart he consoled himself by observing the situation at the front until the situation was over.

Ye Gao naively thought that this kind of chaos would not last long, as long as the mages had enough, they would naturally be able to recall their duties and return to their original battle plan.

Obviously, Commander Ye didn't realize that * is as addictive as work/love, and that kind of refreshing feeling that comes from the body's instinct will make people want to stop!

Ye Gao's decision made the company's entire westward expansion battle into a farce.

Yang Zhenghua's painstakingly drawn up battle plan was in vain.

All the operations no longer have any strategic purpose, all that remains is grab, grab, grab!

This frantic strategic offensive pushed the front line forward nearly 5,000 miles in 24 hours.

Of course, this advance is disorderly and chaotic.

Because everyone was afraid that they would grab less, they all adopted a straight line attack, and they were worried that their original target would be seized by others, so they all rushed forward, making it a chaotic situation to stay behind.

There were quite a few villages and towns that were still under the control of the Fire Tree Dynasty and were not attacked in any way, and there were also a large number of defeated Fire Tree Dynasty troops scattered in the wilderness, many of which were even formed, but they were just blinded by the company's stormy attacks and could not find the north for a while.

At this time, the entire main force of the westward advance had already rushed to the forefront, and the company's colonial area on the other side of the ghost river was no longer defended by any armed forces, and in fact, the vast area that was equivalent to the occupation of the company's strength was extremely weak, and what could be absolutely controlled was only a stronghold established along several new lines of communication.

On the other hand, for the front-line troops, it is only said that the 5,000-mile advance is already the limit of pre-war reconnaissance coverage, and the enemy's situation beyond this distance is quite vague to the command center, and the front-line command mages are even more dark-eyed, and they don't even know the basic terrain.

Twenty-six hours after the start of the battle, the 3009 Brigade, which was part of the third detachment, found a city towering in the canyon passage at the front of the attack route.

Unlike the previously discovered towns and villages, the city is protected by thick and tall walls, which stretch along the terrain to the east and west until the mountain walls on both sides join together, blocking the entire canyon passage.

This is the largest city encountered since the start of the war.

The commander of the 3009 Brigade released an unmanned reconnaissance aircraft to reconnoiter the city.

After only a few photos were taken, the unmanned reconnaissance aircraft was shot down.

However, it is already clear from the limited photographs that have been handed back that the city, in terms of size, prosperity, and number of residents, is far from being comparable to those villages and towns before it, and is not even on an order of magnitude! Of course, the number of troops stationed there was far greater than in any previous village.

The result of scouting along the steep walls on both sides of the canyon was that the only way to attack was to go through the valley of Guò unless you were flying. Obviously, at present, the company does not have the strength to equip the troops with flying tools.

Fearing that the troops on other routes would outnumber him, and coveting the huge wealth that such a large city might have, the commander of the 3009 Brigade simply conducted a reconnaissance within a range of fifty miles, and after determining that there was no other route in his vicinity that could lead to Guò, he hastily ended the reconnaissance and launched a direct attack on the city.

However, the commander of the 3009 Brigade did not know that he was actually the first unit of the entire front line, and the length of the mountain in front of the offensive route was far longer than he imagined. From this point of view, his decision to attack as quickly as possible was actually quite wise, and if he could have conquered and completed it before the other troops arrived*, he would not have to share the wealth of the city with the others.

Of course, if only ifs.
