Chapter 41, Encirclement and Reinforcement?

The appearance of the abscess ejector made Yan Fangxu feel a little tricky.

The pus that erupted from these monsters fell to the position, forming a puddle of pus, and the ground was corroded to the point of stinging.

You can't stand in this place.

And if you are unlucky enough to be sprayed, the sputter pus will touch the armor of the individual soldier, and it will not be corroded; When it touches the arms and legs, it can quickly penetrate the clothing, forming a large area of corrosion and burns, which will soon make the soldiers lose their combat effectiveness.

The most unfortunate thing is that when the head is sprayed all over the body, the soldier will die in a scream.

What kind of bio-chemical artillery is this?

If these monsters are allowed to squirt as much as they want, then they may be wiped out here.

But fortunately, firstly, the number of abscess ejectors is not very large, and secondly, the ejection distance is very close, only fifty meters, not really as far as artillery.

Within a radius of fifty meters, even if there were a large number of other abscess monsters covering, they would still be easily hit.

Soldiers will also prioritize their fire on these monsters when they see the threat posed by abscess ejectors.

The 3rd Battalion was a new unit, but it was the first to be replaced by the G9 Gun Clan produced by the camp. A powerful and stable firearm is a soldier's best friend. In particular, the machine gun version of the G9 has more power, faster rate of fire, larger ammunition capacity, and more sustained firepower. It's like a lawnmower when facing these monsters.

Bullets rained out like water, and the monsters that stood in front of the abscess ejectors were swept down in pieces, and their bodies were even shattered. Immediately afterward, the bullet smashed the abscess ejector to pieces.

At a certain price, they once again repelled the attack of the monsters.

The woodland perimeter became quiet.

In two rounds of attack, those monsters threw down at least a thousand corpses.

Before this, Yan Fangxu had never found a monster of this scale gathered together in this dense forest.

The incident itself was very unusual, and what happened next made him smell a strong conspiracy.

Those monsters, too, seemed to understand that it didn't make much sense to continue the previous ferocious offensive, and that they were purely giving people heads. They stopped the massive attack, but did not leave completely.

From where they were, the soldiers could see the shadows in the forest in the distance. The monsters did not leave, but lurked behind the trees of the woodland, and their deep malice could still be felt from afar.

The soldiers, including Yan Fangxu, tried to fire into the dense forest.

It doesn't work well.

The area they were in was originally a hatching nest for monsters, and in order to clear the nest, they cut down and burned many of the trees that were parasitized by the hatching eggs here, creating a small clearing. When those monsters attacked, they were within a hundred meters of the soldiers' defensive positions, and they were all uncovered.

However, in the woodland 100 meters away, the power of the bullet is greatly reduced.

These soldiers, indeed, after a short period of training, became qualified fighters. But a qualified fighter doesn't have to be a sharpshooter with every shot. At a distance of 100 meters, the enemy is hiding in a dense forest with a dim field of vision and a large area of trees, which is really not easy to shoot.

With his super military skills and the powerful performance of the electromagnetic rifle in his hand, Yan Fangxu can ensure that he can shoot every shot and destroy it when he sees it, but after taking two shots and killing two monsters suspected of being abscess ejectors, he stopped shooting.

Not only did he stop fighting, but he also let his soldiers cease fire.

He now realized that the number of enemies was too large, and they might run out of bullets, but they might not be able to kill all of these monsters.

Ammunition is limited.

Originally, they thought that they were just going into the woodland to destroy the hatching nests, and not to go to war, so they didn't have much ammunition with them.

And even if you really go to war, the ammunition reserve still needs to be sent by the logistics troops. In the field, how many can you carry with you?

Although Yan Fangxu was already very cautious, when he led the team out to carry out the mission, he also called a brute bull cart to drag a cart of food and ammunition supplies.

But that's still not infinite either.

If you stick to it, the final result will only be to run out of ammunition and food.

He led the team in an attempt to break out, but failed.

After the troops entered the dense forest, the advantage of firepower was greatly reduced, and the threat faced was also greater.

Not only have the 'bio-artillery' become harder to eliminate and more likely to inflict damage on soldiers, but even the ordinary abscesses have become a threat. After all, no one can tell from behind which tree such a monster would emerge.

And the bigger trouble is that no one knows how many monsters are hidden in the dense forest around them. If they insist on breaking through, how many casualties will they have to pay.

After making a preliminary attempt and realizing the difficulties, before the casualties did appear, Yan Fangxu ordered the troops to retreat, continue to hold on to their positions, and asked the headquarters for help.

Soon, he got a reassuring reply.

"Hold on, hold on, and the Governor will lead the 2nd Infantry Battalion and the Marine Commando to rescue you."

It's really reassuring to get such a response.

The Doge will not give up on them.

But after a little longer, the uneasiness in Yan Fangxu's heart gradually magnified again.

He sensed wisdom from the actions of these monsters.

The first two attacks were quite brainless, like the style of these monsters. When they encounter other kinds of creatures, they will rush up without brains, and they look like they are not afraid of death.

But at this moment, those monsters took advantage of the terrain of this dense forest to besiege them in place, but it was by no means a decision that could be made without a brain.

Otherwise, wisdom is born from these monsters; Otherwise, there is a human element behind their actions.

Yan Fangxu prefers the latter.

Then why do these monsters choose to besiege and not attack?

Starve them here?

Obviously unreliable.

So what their goal ......

Did they anticipate reinforcements?

Is this a conspiracy to encircle the point and send reinforcements?

They were going to the Governor?

A series of thoughts poured into his mind, and Yan Fangxu's thoughts were a little chaotic all of a sudden.

Most of the roads on the way to the rescue were also dense forests. If the Governor's team were attacked by a large number of monsters during the march, the result would be unimaginable!

He immediately activated the communication equipment again.

This time, he managed to get in touch with Gu Hang and reported his guess to the governor.

But after hearing his report, Gu Hang just said:

"Don't worry, I have a plan, you take your time."
