Two hours later, on the outskirts of Xingping Guowen School.

He Bangxiong, who had already led his troops to Mengla, completed the comprehensive suppression and disarming of the 911th Division and the Central Independent Brigade of Mengla, and established a defensive line against the 369th Division on the west side of Mengla, stood in front of Chen Shen and reported the latest situation to Chen Shen together with He Bupa.

"The .911 Division has surrendered in formation, and there are still a few private soldiers in the Central Independent Brigade to resist in the city, but they basically no longer pose a threat."

"It is expected that in another two hours, we will be able to complete the full reception of Mongla."

"The problem now is that the number of Mengla troops we have captured is much smaller than the real number of Mengla troops."

"At least 2,000 people chose to flee on the spot after receiving Lin Mingxian's 'bounty', and now they have entered the area around Mengla, and we can't handle it at all."

"This is a major destabilizing factor, if Lin Mingxian can establish contact with the 369th Division through means that we don't know, and then let these militias merge with the 369th Division, the strength of the Mengla Army will return to more than 3,000 people."

"And this means that our combat mission has not been achieved, and most of today's battle is in vain."

"These 3,000-strong teams may not dare to fight us again, but even if it is just a stalemate, it is not conducive to our subsequent layout."

"Because according to the battle plan, we have to leave for Kachin as soon as possible, and we can't give them any more time to prepare."

"Therefore, the core issue now is still how to force Lin Mingxian to surrender."

"As long as he surrenders, the Monglas army will give up resistance no matter what."

"After disarming them, the follow-up tasks will not be too difficult."

Hearing He Bangxiong's words, Chen Shen nodded approvingly.

Tonight's attack can be said to be a success, after all, relying on a few hundred troops, we have defeated the thousands of Mengla troops.

The advantages of equipment and personnel have been brought into full play, and it can even be said that they have given these turtle militias a little shock of modern and mechanized combat.

On the other hand, the operation was also a failure.

Because according to the predetermined plan, the coalition side should pour out the strongest firepower in the shortest possible time, quickly destroy the fighting will of the Mengla army with a decisive battle, and force the other side to surrender as a formation.

Now, that goal is clearly not being achieved.

The whole battle lasted for nearly 5 hours, and the 369th Division of the Mengla Army from the west had already driven to the face of the coalition forces, while the 911th Division and the Central Independent Brigade of Mengla near Nanban were only "basically surrendered"!

It has to be said that on the battlefield, especially on the large-scale battlefield, the situation is really ever-changing, and just a small detail of the pre-war salary has completely changed the form of war.

This is a kind of helplessness, but it is also an inevitability.

Thinking of this, Chen Shen breathed a long sigh of relief, and then said:

"We have no other way to get to this point."

"Lin Mingxian must be dealt with before the 369th Division and the rout army complete the merger, and to get him, we must enter the school, kill the remaining private soldiers, rescue the hostages, and capture Lin Mingxian."

"The situation is complicated right now."

Speaking of this, Chen Shen paused for a moment, then pointed to the simple structure diagram of the school that had been spread out, and said:

"Xingping Guowen School, a total of 4 buildings, is distributed in a circle, and in the middle is the school playground."

"Of the four buildings, three are teaching buildings and one is a student dormitory, and the building height is all four floors."

"Judging from the results of the preliminary reconnaissance, Lin Mingxian's private soldiers have dispersed the students to different floors of the four buildings, which has greatly increased the difficulty of our assault attack."

"We only have two options at the moment."

"Either attack synchronously and take four buildings at the same time."

"Or, we have to negotiate with Lin Mingxian and find a way to reach an agreement with him."

"Compared with the former, the difficulty of the latter plan is actually higher, because we can't give Lin Mingxian what he wants."

"So, there is really only one solution we can choose, and the only question is that we can only achieve it."

Hearing Chen Shen's words, everyone present fell silent.

In fact, if it were only to attack four buildings, the coalition would not have any difficulty.

After all, the current coalition army is not the light infantry squad when Chen Shen fought the Banglong Trading House.

They have tanks, heavy artillery, rockets, helicopters.

No matter which piece of equipment is brought out, it is enough to blow up the Guowen School to the ground.

But the problem is that now there are not only enemies, not only militants, but also innocent students in schools!

All radical "means of destruction" cannot be executed, as a fierce team galloping across the battlefield, but can only use the "de-escalation methods" commonly used by the police to complete the task!

Except for Chen Shen, no one had experience in this type of operation.

And it is really difficult for some strong people to ask them to make suggestions.

Looking at the silent crowd, Chen Shen's brows furrowed, and after seeing his expression, Li Bang thought for a little and said:

"Conventional operations are impossible, the building structure here is too complex, there are too many enemies, and it takes time to clean up."

"This time it was really a whirlwind knife on himself, Ning Ming killed Lin Mingxian's family in the villa, and now he turned his head and gave us the same problem."

"I really don't know if I should say retribution"

"In a sense, it is."

Chen Shen nodded without hesitation, and then continued:

"We don't need to take the blame for the villa massacre after all, but we must solve the hijacking of the Guowen School."

"Routine action is impossible, is it possible to use other methods?"

"Like, the poison gas we used before?"

"No, the impact on confined spaces is too small."

Li Bang immediately shook his head, and then said:

"Moreover, the vast majority of Mongla private soldiers are awake, and in this case, they may do more extreme things due to the effects of poison gas."

"If it really doesn't work, we can only bear the cost of casualties, and it is better to solve the problem quickly than to let him drag it out"

"If you have to, you have to do it."

Chen Shen's expression was a little gloomy, at this moment, he really wanted to hang Ning Ming up and beat him.

If it weren't for him, Lin Mingxian would have almost never made such a crazy response.

Even if he just ran away, at least it would be better than the current situation.

You know, there is nothing fancy about hostage rescue.

As long as you decide to attack, you can only use the simplest and most basic way to complete the attack.

History has proven that all attempts to settle the hostages have failed, and the only thing the assault team can rely on is the gun in their hands.

Thinking of this, he subconsciously held the gun in his hand, and after hesitating for a moment, he finally spoke:

"Don't think too much about it."

"Find a way to organize a reconnaissance of the internal situation of the school and find out the opponent's troop deployment."

"Then, we'll just go straight in."

"This is Lin Mingxian's own choice, we don't want to hurt people, but all the casualties of this operation must be recorded on his head!"
