The pontoon bridge on Ye Fan's side has already begun construction, and the main force is nearing the north bank of the Celestial River.

The follow-up troops could start crossing the river within an hour, and in an hour and a half, the main force could land on the beach in the villa area.

Xiaoba is already patrolling the seaside, and there's no Sea Monster interference nearby.

Therefore, Ye Fan must hold on for an hour and a half. During this time, the multinational forces won't arrive quickly, so he will only be facing the Curry Country's army.

Ye Fan did not underestimate this nation's army. After all, they have five thousand soldiers, while his Guard Company, Military Intelligence Bureau, along with Magnetic Storm Infantry, totals less than two hundred men.

Two hundred against five thousand is a losing bet, so he still needs to rally more troops.

His naval soldiers' setting is capped at five thousand, among which the two battleships carried three thousand sailors.

The 68 amphibious vehicles also occupy 272 spots, so he can muster over a thousand more troops.

Ye Fan did not plan to utilize all the available slots and wanted to leave some room for maneuvering, so he first chose 550 Marine Corps soldiers.

This is an extremely expensive unit type, each soldier costing 1500 Gold, typical of special forces pricing.

However, there's a reason for the high cost, and Ye Fan decided to produce 550 men, making up a full-strength battalion.

After selecting to produce, his portable barracks immediately began churning out troops like wildfire.

Upon appearance, the Marines donned deep blue combat uniforms and goggles on their faces. Each Marine is a diving expert, with underwater combat skills second only to Frogman units.

Their weapon is the Type 95 assault rifle, with each carrying three grenades on them.

Bulletproof vests, helmets, those are standard-issued equipment they are born with.

In just over eight minutes, all 550 Marines were in position.

By this time, sporadic gunfire was already ringing ahead, as the Guard Company had begun exchanging fire at the front.

Ye Fan wasted no words and simply waved his hand: "Go, within an hour and a half, don't let anyone from Curry Country break through our defense line."

In a dark mass, the soldiers immediately spread along the villa district, proactively reaching the intersection of the opposite street and villa zone.

If Curry Country wants to attack the villa district, they have to enter first, especially since Ye Fan's villa is located deep within the district.

Now, Curry Country's soldiers, under the cover of tanks and armored vehicles, are ferociously advancing into the villa district, and the battle has commenced.

......

Lao is a congressman for Curry Country, also the army's commander, and even used to be the head of a gang in this country.

In fact, many congressmen have transformed from gang bosses to politicians, and he is no exception.

Lao is fully confident in this assault operation.

In his view, the multinational troops assembling is redundant; Curry Country alone is enough to deal with Ye Fan's two hundred men.

Thus, while speaking with James, Lao confidently assured him: "Speaker, have your troops assemble at leisure. Within an hour, I will bring Ye Fan to you alive, and dead doesn't count."

James doubted Lao's words but, upon reflection, found it plausible.

After all, Curry Country's forces outnumber others. The Alliance Army on Wanguo Island doesn't exceed fifty thousand, while Curry Country alone boasts over five thousand.

Though Ye Fan is renowned, his numbers are ultimately insufficient. Perhaps Lao truly might prevail.

"Then I await eagerly. If you can capture Ye Fan alive, I will promote you to our deputy speaker."

Receiving James' promise invigorated Lao, filling him with battle spirit.

He ordered his troops to quickly breach the Dawn Army's defense line, unafraid of casualties, to capture Ye Fan swiftly.

The rumbling Curry Country tanks entered the gateway of the villa zone.

Before entering, the tank gunners fired, bringing down the grand gates in two shots, showcasing their bravado.

The soldiers, yelping wildly, followed in ranks behind the tanks, occasionally shooting at the surroundings.

The troops even had a few bicycles, each piled with seven or eight people, striking exaggerated poses, and clamored in with the unit.

Zhuge Yunxue, lying on a villa rooftop, watched the Curry Country's men with some speechlessness.

What an odd nation, an arrogant nation, also a clown-like nation.

Had they not had up to five thousand people, Zhuge Yunxue felt that a single charge from the Guard Company could defeat them.

However, with their current numbers, plus tanks and armored vehicles, cautious response is necessary.

Beside her was the Three-Star Rocket Launcher Warrior of the Guard Company.

The Guard Company is a mixed-unit company with not just Army Soldiers, special forces, Scouts, Snipers, but also Flamethrower Warriors, Rocket Launcher Warriors, and Air Defense Infantry.

Upon upgrading to Three-Star, the Rocket Launcher Warrior comes with ten rockets per day, with substantial power.

Though challenging against main battle tanks, it's no problem against light tanks or armored vehicles.

Curry Country's tanks are all light tanks, presumably procured from somewhere.

"Leave it to you now, quickly eliminate their tanks and armored vehicles, then their five thousand men will be nothing to fear."

"No worries, Commander, we'll take them down."

The Three-Star Rocket Launcher Warrior Su Mo was the earliest follower of Ye Fan.

He is now leading a squad within the Guard Company, all consisting of Rocket Launcher Warriors.

He's holding back a lot of frustration internally because many soldiers who joined at the same time as him have been promoted to Heroic Units or have become high-ranking officers.

Due to his unit type, he's been stuck in the Guard Company with few opportunities to shine.

Now, the opportunity has finally arrived; the Guard Company is heading to the battlefield, and he must perform well in this battle, aiming to become a Heroic Unit and get promoted!

So when the opportunity arose, he seized it instantly!

He didn't fire at the first tank that passed by, nor did he fire at the second one.

When the third tank arrived, he decisively opened fire!

A rocket was launched and hit precisely!

Boom~~~!

A fireball erupted in the villa area as the tank caught fire and began to explode.

Because Su Mo's rocket triggered the ammunition inside the tank.

Two soldiers screamed and crawled out of the tank; one was immediately shot dead by his comrade after jumping out, and the other got stuck at the tank lid and was killed before fully emerging.

Another never made it out and died directly in the explosion.

After taking down this tank, he immediately changed positions.

He jumped off the roof of the villa, swiftly crossed a hedge between two villas, and fired another rocket as the second tank turned around!

As the explosion sounded, Su Mo was particularly excited.

Two tanks down, he had single-handedly destroyed two enemy tanks!

And that's not all; the first tank was already panicking and trying to escape, but he wouldn't let it get away.

With Su Mo's success, other Rocket Launcher Warriors in different positions also succeeded.

The tanks and armored vehicles were their targets; Dawn Army's tactics were clear: destroy the enemy's assault forces and then start urban warfare.

With one explosion after another, soldiers from Curry Country began to panic.

Initially, they kept firing, but the Dawn Army's marksmanship was too accurate.

The Guard Company soldiers hid in the shadows, constantly firing sneak shots.

These soldiers clearly lacked military training; every moment, someone fell, leaving hundreds of corpses behind in no time.

The soldiers of Curry Country panicked and started abandoning the main roads, opting instead to enter the roadside villas.

Lao continuously issued orders.

"Quick! Enter the roadside villas, occupy the rooftops, enter the rooms; we have numbers on our side. Move villa by villa, compress their battle space!"

This tactic did have some effect, as a large number of Curry Country soldiers rushed into the villas. Although the Dawn Army soldiers fought desperately to stop them, they were outnumbered and had to retreat while fighting.

Zhuge Yunxue, in one villa, shot and killed seven enemies in quick succession, but more were still pouring in, forcing her to jump out the window and move to the next villa.

After all, the Guard Company and the Magnetic Storm Infantry totaled just over a hundred, unable to fully resist a five-thousand-man assault.

As they abandoned over ten villas and were about to hold out any longer, reinforcements arrived from the rear.

A Marine Corps soldier charged into a courtyard with seven companions following closely.

This courtyard was under attack from Curry Country soldiers, who kept firing at the house, gaining the upper hand until the Marines arrived.

The soldier leading them was Luo Chen, the first member of the Marine Corps, appointed as Captain by Ye Fan.

Luo Chen was the first to charge forward, entering the courtyard and immediately firing a burst of bullets!

Rat-a-tat-tat~~~!

In a fierce burst of gunfire, a burst of bullets was fired within just over two seconds, knocking eight or nine enemies to the ground!

The rapid firing speed was hardly slower than Tanya's.

After firing, a roll avoided the enemy's counterattack while completing the magazine change.

His teammates immediately provided cover, firing two more bursts to suppress the enemy.

These two teammates quickly flipped to evade, while the teammates behind connected the charge again.

At this moment, Luo Chen finished changing the magazine and fired again, from another angle, taking down five or six more enemies.

On the other side, the soldiers from Curry Country attempted to approach, and three team members simultaneously pulled out grenades and threw them in unison!

Boom boom boom~~!

Amidst the three explosions, screams echoed from the other side of the courtyard, and the precise bombardment caused heavy casualties.

Several Marine Corps members worked closely together, completely suppressing Curry Country's soldiers with firepower.

Inside the villa, Zhuge Yunxue pulled out a magazine, loaded with bullets, then swiftly attacked; joined forces with the Marine Corps comrades, inside-outside coordination, they miraculously eliminated all fifty to sixty Curry Country soldiers!

Luo Chen nodded towards Zhuge Yunxue without wasting words; the Marine Corps and Guard Company joined hands, finally halting Curry Country soldiers' advance!
