Chapter 69: Support is coming
North of the second line of defense in the South Creek Territory.
A platoon commander and several squad leaders at the front command were discussing something.
Suddenly, a soldier ran in from outside.
"Platoon commander, the demon is here again!"
"Why are these damn demons here again?"
Hearing the soldier's words, the platoon commander complained again and again.
Then he picked up his assault rifle and ran to the front line with several squad leaders.
"Heavy machine guns to suppress demons, sniper rifles aimed at executioners!"
Looking at the black zombies in front of him, as well as the demons and dozens of executioners behind him, the platoon leader's head was suddenly full of sweat.
Immediately after that, he gave his own orders to several squad leaders.
Although the sniper rifle is powerful, it cannot deal any effective damage to demons.
And the heavy machine gun, with its high muzzle velocity, can barely suppress the demon's attack.
And the sniper rifle can also be used against their real targets, which are those mutated zombies.
Just when the battle with the demons on the north side of the first line of defense was in full swing, various situations began to appear on the other three sides.
The third line of defense in Nancy's territory.
"How's the situation at the front?"
Leaning against the wall, Yuan Xi listened to the sound of gunfire in all directions, and the whole person was very calm, and did not start to panic because of all kinds of bad news.
"Lord Lord, the demons on the north side of the defense line have been repelled many times, and so far it is certain that at least three demons have been killed, and the missing ammunition supply in front has also been sent by Li San."
Hearing Wei Fuyou's words, Yuan Xi nodded.
"What about the other three directions?"
Then Yuan Xi asked again.
"Lord Lord, so far, the news from the other three directions is okay, and it can still be supported."
Hearing this, Yuan Xi's nervous heart was barely relieved.
In less than a day, the first line of defense that he had carefully designed collapsed at such a fast speed, which really made Yuan Xi's heart a little trance.
But fortunately, the role of the first line of defense is early warning, and the real defense is still placed in the second line of defense and the third line of defense.
……
At this moment, Zhang San and Liu Zhi were leading the troops of a reinforced battalion they had borrowed to move quickly towards the territory.
It's just that because it's all infantry, the pace of progress is really slow.
The two of them came on the only motorcycle in the territory.
So it took less than five hours to get there.
But now the infantry had to be accommodated, and the speed of return was suddenly slowed down.
It will take at least 16 hours for them to return to their territory at the earliest.
The good news is that the battalion commander who won this is still more obedient to the regiment commander, and so far nothing has happened.
It's just that looking at this support force that seems to be a home, Zhang San still can't help but sigh.
As for Liu Zhi, because he is not a descendant of the Nanxi Territory, and he is still a native of this world, he also thinks that the territory is the current station, and there will be other reinforcements, and at this moment he has a smile on his face.
But everything is only clear to Zhang San himself, and he can only occasionally chat with Liu Zhi.
……
Seven hours later, it was completely dark.
And Nancy's territory has once again begun to test them from above.
Because thermal imaging and night vision devices have not yet become commonplace, the sight of a dark sky depends entirely on the moon and the territory's searchlights.
And those zombies and demons have no disadvantage in this regard.
"My lord, it's not good!"
"The demon on the north side of the defense line doesn't know when it went to the west side, and now the west side defense line is almost about to collapse."
Yuan Xi, who had just finished dinner in the territory, had not yet digested the food in his stomach, and a tragic news came.
"Quick, immediately organize personnel to defend the third line of defense."
"Inform all personnel on the north, east, and south lines of defense to withdraw to the territory."
"Defend the last line of defense of the territory according to the original plan."
The moment he heard the news, Yuan Xi did not send the remaining troops of his own territory to reinforce the Western Front.
Rather, they immediately consolidated their third line of defense.
And the other three soldiers who had not yet been broken through by zombies and demons were also withdrawn.
Although until now, the western side of the second line of defense has not been completely occupied by zombies and demons, the other three lines of defense are still standing there.
But it was only a matter of time before the western side of the second line of defense was breached, and it could be breached in five minutes, or even ten minutes.
At that time, all of his troops will be flanked outside.
Once those armies are wiped out by the demons, the defense of their own territory is almost meaningless.
Because the troops in the four lines of defense occupy more than half of the army of the entire territory.
The third line of defense was less than two platoons, and the strength of these two platoons also included artillery platoons.
"Your Excellency."
After receiving the circular order, the mattress ice under his hand immediately conveyed the order to the soldiers in the four directions.
"Wei Fuyou, inform Yang Wen that all the troops in the territory are now gathered in front of the main buildings of the two places."
Looking at Wei Fu, who was sorting out the information around him, Yuan Xi said.
Time passed by minute by minute, and after about two minutes, all the current troops of the South Stream Territory were assembled there.
"Report to your lordship, the total number of remaining troops in the territory is 65, including 30 artillery, 60 infantry, and five heralds."
After hearing Wei Fuyou's words, Yuan Xi nodded calmly.
"The third squad of infantry went to cover the retreat of the soldiers on the western flank, and the second squad and the first squad immediately entered the west side of the third line of defense of the territory."
"Yang Wen, territorial artilleryman, I'll hand it over to you, I only have one request."
"When artillery fire is called upon naturally, you must support all the fire as quickly as possible."
Looking at the lord with a serious expression in front of him, Yang Wen replied solemnly.
"Your Excellency, rest assured, I promise to complete the task you have given me."
"Artillery platoon, all artillery placements are placed in the second series."
After speaking, Yang Wen left Yuan Xi's front with the artillery card, and the soldiers of the other infantry platoons immediately started their own actions.
At this moment, only the last strength of his own strength was left by Yuan Xi's side, the full platoon of guards and the Mandalorian Vizla.
"Li San, how are the mecha preparations in the warehouse now?"
"Lord Lord, the source crystal of the mecha still has fifty percent of the energy, and all the bullets have been replenished before it happens."
"It's ready to use."
Hearing Li San's words, Yuan Xi nodded.
He then asked Li San to transport the mecha to the bottom of the wall on the west side of the territory.
And Yuan Xi also brought his guard platoon and Vizla to the west side of the territory.
He knew that there was a good chance that these demons would attack his territory directly from the west.
So he put the strongest elite troops, that is, his own guards, here.
"Zhang San, you must come back as soon as possible!"
Yuan Xi, who was standing outside the third line of defense of the territory, quietly looked into the distance and whispered.
