The sudden addition of the Marine Corps caught Rao off guard.

The tanks and armored vehicles advanced too quickly and were focused on by the Dawn Army, which left them all stalled, causing his plan to quickly capture Ye Fan to fail.

Rao was somewhat furious and felt ashamed of his troops' performance.

However, he didn't believe he would be completely defeated, after all, he had five thousand people on his side, and the Dawn Army clearly didn't have much manpower.

The front troops, after some fighting, had already lost more than a thousand people, so he was ready to push his main follow-up troops onto the battlefield.

He had two thousand well-trained troops, originally thought they wouldn't be needed, but now they all had to go to the front, especially since he had boasted in front of James.

These two thousand people quickly assembled and were about to be thrown into the battle in the villa area.

At this moment, he saw a large group of soldiers from the White Eagle Country driving up.

He didn't recognize who they were, but judging by their skin color, they were all from the White Eagle Country.

Rao looked puzzled until the officer of this group of soldiers came up to him and introduced himself.

"Hello, Congressman Rao, I am John, the battalion commander under Chairman James. Chairman James was worried about the battle situation here, so he sent us to support."

Rao's face immediately lit up with delight. Having reinforcements was certainly good, even though this group looked to be only two hundred people, any additional force was valuable.

"Hello Battalion Commander John, thank you for coming to help us in Curry Country, but please let our soldiers lead the charge. We are ready to exterminate Ye Fan's bandit army, you can follow behind us."

John nodded: "Alright, we will follow behind your troops and will act at crucial moments."

"Good! Just watch our Curry Country soldiers' performance carefully."

Determined to secure the vice-chairman position, Rao immediately ordered his soldiers to advance.

Two thousand soldiers from Curry Country entered the villa area, followed by John with more than two hundred people.

Just after entering the villa area, John suddenly waved his hand: "Act now!"

Over two hundred soldiers from the White Eagle Country immediately opened fire at the two thousand Curry Country soldiers who were about to attack!

A volley of bullets, like a storm, swept across the unsuspecting Curry Country soldiers, resulting in a catastrophic disaster.

Who would have thought that the bullets would come from their allied forces behind them.

Their ferocious firepower resolved more than a thousand Curry Country soldiers in less than ten seconds.

More than seven hundred people died, and over six hundred wounded soldiers lay on the ground wailing continuously.

The remaining soldiers scattered and fled, without even thinking about fighting back.

This scene directly left Rao dumbfounded.

He couldn't understand why these White Eagle Country soldiers would fire on his own men?

What had he done to displease the White Eagle Country, leading James to treat him like this?

Rao was utterly furious, fighting for dear life, only to encounter betrayal from an ally, who could tolerate that?

He decisively issued an order to retreat.

"Everyone, fall back, we're not fighting anymore! We're going to confront the people from the White Eagle Country!"

There were still more than a thousand soldiers fighting hard inside the villa area, and they immediately withdrew upon receiving the order.

Including those who survived the ambush by the White Eagle Country soldiers, more than two thousand gathered around Rao.

By this time, the White Eagle Country soldiers who ambushed them had vanished, no one knew where they'd gone.

Without pursuing these soldiers, Rao directly ordered a return to confront James!

The villa assault, after almost an hour, finally ended.

With his defeated troops, Rao embarrassingly fled, angrily declaring to the outside world that the White Eagle Country had betrayed their allies, and he demanded to know from Chairman James what on earth he intended to do!

He wasn't without evidence; many people filmed from a distance, capturing the sudden attack on the allied forces by the White Eagle Country.

This incident directly led to the abrupt end of the battle of Curry Country, which was nearing the depths of the villa area, and Ye Fan's side was safe.

At this moment, multinational forces had also gathered.

A massive force of more than thirty thousand, accompanied by over five hundred tanks, more than a thousand armored vehicles, and over a thousand artillery units, had already departed from the assembly site.

Additionally, the multinational naval forces had also gathered, with a total of seventy ships of various types, starting to advance along the Great River, encircling left and right, towards the beach by the villa area.

By time estimation, the army would arrive slightly faster than the navy.

Chairman James, accompanied by many congressmen, personally led the army forward, but he hadn't expected to encounter Rao's remnants on the way.

The multinational forces, halfway along, suddenly bumped into Rao's remnants.

By this time, James already knew about Rao's defeat, but he didn't care much, as the Curry Country soldiers were initially weak in combat, and he hadn't expected Rao to truly eliminate Ye Fan.

But with such a defeat, they should have the humility of being defeated; what was with this aggressive attitude?

Before James could inquire, Rao had already rushed to him, grabbing him by the collar.

"James! How have I, Rao, wronged you? You actually sent people to stab me in the back? My two thousand elite were just about to enter battle and were shot from behind by your men. Today, if you don't give me an explanation, I'll fight with you!"

Rao's tirade, spewing spit all over James, left him dumbfounded.

After his initial shock, James pushed Rao away: "Are you insane! When did I send anyone?"

"Still won't admit it? The ironclad evidence is right here, I'm not afraid of your denial!"

As he spoke, Lao brought out the video evidence, initially not handing it to James but showing it around to the surrounding senators instead.

After dozens of senators watched it for a while, it finally reached James's hand.

Seeing the others' eyes filled with suspicion and vigilance, James already had a bad feeling.

He grabbed the phone and after watching for a bit, felt that he couldn't control his anger.

He seized the adjutant: "Why? Why would such a group of people from White Eagle Country dare to do such a thing? I've never seen these people before! Are they from our troops? What have you been doing as an adjutant? How come you are not aware of this situation?"

The adjutant was stunned by the tirade, repeatedly explaining that he had never seen these people either, and promised to investigate thoroughly upon his return to see where these people belong.

James was also helpless, but he knew he couldn't afford to stall now; he could only tell Lao that these people were not sent by him, and as for what was going on, he couldn't provide an answer at the moment.

Lao was also somewhat guilty, as he didn't dare to completely wreck relations with James, and could only temporarily accept this explanation.

But the others looked at James with strange eyes, because obviously, two hundred armed troops from White Eagle Country couldn't be unattached from him.

Fortunately, the troops could still continue their advance; they had to move quickly.

......

Upon learning that the Black Pot Battalion's raid was successful, Ye Fan finally sighed in relief.

The Guard Company combined with a battalion of the Marine Corps couldn't completely block Curry Country's forces, but if the enemy launched a strong assault, huge losses would be inevitable.

Even now, there were over ten casualties on his side, with more than fifty injured.

Luckily, Ye Fan was well-prepared. Half of John's Black Pot Battalion had arrived at Wanguo Island, lying dormant all along, and avoided most of the inspections since they were from White Eagle Country; nobody would suspect them.

Activating at the crucial moment, they nearly wiped out the elite forces of Curry Country, directly causing Curry Country to retreat in defeat.

Thus, his main forces could successfully make the landing.

........

On the north shore of the Celestial River, the bridge unit finally completed the closure of the floating bridge.

With the successful docking of the last two bridge-carrying vehicles, a kilometer-long floating bridge stretched across the river surface.

On the bank, the artillery unit of the Dawn Army was already impatient.

Many military jeeps, pulling the artillery units of the Dawn Army, included towed cannons and rocket launchers as the main artillery force; they needed to quickly enter the villa zone to set up artillery positions.

With the floating bridge closed, the jeeps advanced quickly.

Vehicle after vehicle moved forward at maximum speed.

Behind the artillery units, several medical vehicles followed.

Because there were wounded soldiers, medical personnel had to go for treatment.

Behind the medical soldiers, followed the armored units.

The commander of the armored unit, Liu Chengjun, after the artillery completed crossing the bridge, promptly drove his tank at the forefront.

Behind him were three hundred Dawn Army 99-type main battle tanks.

These steel beasts hadn't participated in the war against Hai Shan Wei, but in the subsequent zombie extermination process, they fought tirelessly day and night, now upgraded to Three-star Tanks.

These tanks boasted grass-green coating, with heavy armor tracks shaking the floating bridge as they passed over it.

Behind the main battle tanks, followed a hundred multifunctional infantry vehicles.

These infantry vehicles were equipped with rapid repair Red Alert Black Technology, capable of swiftly recovering damaged tanks.

This steel legion was unquestionably the most formidable tank regiment.

Behind the armored battalion, was Dawn Army's First Field Corps.

A convoy of transport vehicles queued up, bringing countless soldiers also waiting to board the floating bridge.

By that time, the artillery unit of Dawn Army had already entered the villa zone.

Ye Fan did not need to give any orders; the artillery had dispersed and swiftly set up artillery positions.

Medical vehicles arrived afterward, starting rapid treatment for the wounded.

At this moment, viewing down from high above, one could see the scenes of both sides advancing towards each other.

Led by multinational troops, a dark mass spread from the island's central area, only a few kilometers away from the villa zone.

The multinational troops' artillery had been deployed; tanks were advancing rapidly.

The Dawn Army rapidly advanced from the floating bridge, with tanks already beginning to land.

While the naval forces of the multinational troops, close to the river, consisted of more than thirty ships; they were about to spot the floating bridge stretched across the river by making another turn.

At this moment, Ye Fan heard a system prompt.

[The first battleship is completed, please Commander choose a birth location.]

Ye Fan pointed over the river surface: "Let it birth on the Great River, intercept the enemy fleet over there!"

[Birth completed, the first battleship has now appeared, this is the Dawn Army's first giant warship, does the Commander wish to name the battleship?]
