Soon after Zha Xuezheng left, the battle report from Boxian County came. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

The eastern part of the outer city is occupied, and the other three districts are still in a state of scorching.

Three hours later, the western outer city was occupied by two regiments of the Fifth Corps, but the eastern outer city was reoccupied by zombies due to the withdrawal of the reinforced troops, and a garrison regiment of the Ninth Corps had no choice but to retreat after suffering one-third of its troops.

Hongxiang City is still hunting without progress.

Liangcheng is in repair.

Only Tieguang Town, under the orderly shift change, firmly occupies the outer city.

No matter how you look at it, this will enter a protracted war of attrition, and such a battle is simply not the battle that humanity should fight at the moment.

Provisional Command fell silent again.

Just as Xu Luo expected, when the temporary victory of Tieguang Town passed, the unfavorable situation in a series of target cities could affect the negative emotions of the human race.

Xia Hong can't avoid it either.

Most of the cigarette butts of the ashtray had been piled up in the ashtray, and the continuous reports of the battle finally began to shake his confidence, but he never considered a strike.

Like a gambler who has thrown all his possessions into his possessions, this gamble must have a result.

Whatever the outcome, he's going to gamble on it.

The siege campaign lasted until the fourth day.

After the adjustment of the second corps of Liangcheng was completed, the iron-hearted Zha Xuezheng personally supervised the battle, and finally took the two outer cities in the west and north under the uninterrupted attack of the entire two divisions.

However, Tieguang Town, which has remained unchanged, has a problem again.

The southern outer city was suddenly besieged by a large number of high-level zombies emerging from the central area, and after half a day of fighting, the entire garrison regiment was annihilated, and the southern outer city fell again.

"Chief! You can't fight like this! Bai Delin, the first staff officer under Xia Hong, said earnestly, "We must change our strategy, otherwise this style of play will definitely consume our vitality......

"The humans in Xinghai Base City can't afford to consume it."

Xia Hong will not fail to understand these truths, but a few people know his hard work.

"Then how do you say you should fight?" Xia Hong looked at the half of the cigarette that was still burning in his hand and said calmly.

"Organize the strongest corps and blossom among them." Bradlin said categorically.

- He was also a gambler, but just a gambler with a clear goal.

In fact, this style of play is just a tactic made to satisfy Xia Hong's idea of recovering the original human city, if it succeeds, then the bet will be won, and if it loses, it will end this meaningless battle immediately.

In a way, Bradlin's idea is for humanity.

However, Xia Hong wants more than that.

In addition to letting Xu Luo take the position, he also has to solve those hidden dangers for Xu Luo, including himself. Xia Hong will definitely do this thing, no matter what kind of infamy he bears after death.

"Do you know what happens if you fail?" Xia Hong asked softly.

"Morale is low, and this is the end of the battle." "But morale can be restored over time, and ......"

He hesitated suddenly, but then straightened his chest.

"The strategy of elite soldiers is the necessary means that the world should implement in the future."

Xia Hong finally raised his head and glanced at Bai Delin.

"Who do you think should be the real ruler of this base city?"

Bai Delin was slightly stunned, then shook his head and smiled bitterly.

At this moment, he captured Xia Hong's true thoughts in his heart, after all, he is a wise man, in addition to accurate judgment of tactics, strategy is also part of his wisdom.

"The strongest man."

He didn't say Xu Luo's name, but used this euphemism to point out the change in the ruling power of the base city, and an indescribable mood completely occupied him.

Suddenly, he felt that he was too small compared to Xia Hong.

"What do you think if I appoint you as the chief of staff of the base city and return to the base city to help Xu Luo?" Xia Hong's voice revealed a little tiredness, but more of anticipation.

――Sure enough, that's what the chief wants.

Bai Delin's body suddenly trembled slightly, and after a long silence, he shook his head.

"Chief, let me stay by your side, and let me accompany you through this journey." There was a palpable sadness in his voice, even a little choked.

"You don't think it's a crime against humanity." Xia Hong's voice became stern.

Bradlin was speechless, just shook his head.

"Delin." Xia Hong stood up and patted him on the shoulder, "In fact, after the start of this battle, I have no way out, but I have been waiting for someone to stand up......"

"But, unfortunately, you are the only one who has stepped up so far."

He bypassed Bai Delin and stood in front of the window, looking at the anxious command outside the room and sighing softly.

"Of course I know there are a lot of people here who don't deserve to die, but I have to do it in order for humanity to complete this real evolution......"

"Who knows, the torment in my heart is more painful than anyone else."

He turned suddenly, and looked at Bai Delin with an incomparably persistent light in his deep eyes.

"Can you tell me whether I should do this or let Xu Luo do it."

Bradlin did not answer.

For Xu Luo, he only appreciated and thought that he was a suitable commander, but for Xia Hong, he had indescribable emotions. He felt that even if he felt that Xia Hong was completely right to do this, he would not agree with Xia Hong to do this.

Xia Hong didn't speak either, waiting for Bai Delin's final decision.

I don't know how long it took, Bai Delin finally turned to look at Xia Hong, his eyes were filled with tears, but his gaze was extremely resolute.

"Chief, I'm willing to go back, but you have to let me go back at the last moment, and now I just want to accompany you through the final plan."

Xia Hong walked to Bai Delin's side and patted him on the shoulder again, but he didn't say anything, and at that moment, he suddenly became much older.

In the independent courtyard of the Crystal Nucleus Bar in Xinghai Base City.

Duanmu Hiroshi sat alone under a parasol.

There was wine on the table, but there were two glasses.

He picked up one of the already filled glasses with both hands, held it high, looked at the gloomy sky, and sighed softly.

"Old chief, I know I won't have a chance to drink with you in the future......"

Duanmu Hong suddenly felt that his nose was very sour, and he couldn't speak anymore.

But he held back, didn't let the damn tears flow, and tried to calm his mind, and he laughed.

"Don't worry, I'll watch Xu Shao finally destroy the zombies."

He still felt that he couldn't go on, so he simply raised his head and drank the wine dry.

"Don't talk about it, it's the last time you drink with the old chief, and you must get drunk today."

Sure enough, he didn't speak anymore, just poured wine and drank it dry.

The other glass of wine remained untouched. (To be continued.) )
