Chapter 388 The Battle Begins
S City, once a paradise for zombies, has now become the world of the army. There are 50,000 soldiers stationed in the city, and as many as 200,000 soldiers stationed outside the city.
The troops in the city are naturally the Lishan army, and the troops outside the city are the coalition forces of the five bases. They jointly send troops to take a bite of the big fat piece of meat in S City.
At this moment, in the camp of the coalition army, in a high-grade and luxuriously decorated tent, more than a dozen senior officers gathered here to discuss countermeasures against S City.
They are all personnel sent by the five bases to lead the army. Everyone has the position of division commander or army commander. Of course, these bases are self-proclaimed. The generals of the country are not so worthless.
"I suggest sending troops immediately and taking down S City as quickly as possible. When Lishan Base reacts, we will empty S City. By then, Lishan Base will have no way to deal with it. As the saying goes, the law does not punish the masses. It is impossible for Wang Jin to offend our five bases at the same time."
An officer said, seemingly a war faction.
"This is too radical. Everyone knows the strength of Lishan Base. Are you really willing to offend Wang Jin to death? Apart from other things, even though Xinludong Base strongly supports us now, once the war really starts, it is hard to say how strong Xinludong Base is. Let's see the situation first. If Lishan Base doesn't respond, it won't be too late for us to take action."
Some people also raised objections, and soon the officers split into two sides and debated fiercely according to their own views.
This is the trouble of the coalition forces. Without a unified commander, issuing decisions and orders will be extremely slow and need to be discussed again and again.
In a corner of the tent, there are many logistics support officials, but compared with these powerful officers, the weight of the officials is much lighter, especially in wartime, everything is aligned with the army.
In the official area, a fat man in a suit and leather shoes was sweating profusely. After listening for a while, he couldn't help but say: "I think it's better to withdraw. Wang Jin, the leader of the Lishan base, has a strong murderous intention. We will suffer a disaster if we blatantly occupy it. The new Ludong base is unreliable. If we put our hopes on them, it will be too unreliable."
The fat man who spoke was none other than Lai Cheng, the logistics director of the Banshuiwan base, who had met Wang Jin twice.
"Nonsense, retreat, what a joke, we mobilized a large army, but we just went back in disgrace without firing a single shot, you can afford to lose face, but I can't."
"We have five bases here, Wang Jin must be cautious, don't worry too much."
"We are not vegetarians either, at the beginning, Lingnan base didn't dare to offend our five bases at the same time, what ability does Wang Jin have."
As expected, no matter whether it is the war faction or the relaxation faction, they don't want to retreat in disgrace like this. For Lai Cheng's words, these officers all criticized him verbally and angrily, with an expression of disappointment.
Lai Cheng sat down with a wry smile, cursing in his heart, damn it, if he didn't have the power to command the army, who would be willing to mess with you here, and would have left as far as possible.
What kind of person is Wang Jin? Lai Cheng, who has met Wang Jin twice and is quite capable in flattering people, knows that Wang Jin looks low-key, but he is a proud person in his bones and will never allow anyone to make trouble under his nose.
He even ignores the New Ludong Base, makes the Holy Beast Messenger Fan Tianlong leave in anger, and fights the embassy. From these things, it can be seen that Wang Jin is not afraid of the New Ludong Base, so how can he be afraid of the coalition forces of their five bases? Isn't this a big joke?
The more Lai Cheng thought about it, the more uneasy he felt. Looking at the officers who were still discussing with great interest, he had an illusion that a disaster was coming. He couldn't help but say goodbye and walked towards the exit of the tent.
Those officers had long disliked Lai Cheng. After mocking him, they let this cowardly fat man leave with disdain on their lips.
After leaving the tent, Lai Cheng immediately called his secretary Xiao Min and told her, "Hurry up and prepare for the salute. We can't stay in this military camp. We have to leave quickly."
"Ah!" Xiao Min opened her mouth wide, as if she suspected that she had heard it wrong: "Leave, we are in the military camp now. The leader will not let us go if we leave our post without permission, and these soldiers will also catch us."
"What do you know? Just do it when I tell you to. Arrange my personal soldiers. I want to leave immediately."
Lai Cheng saw that his beloved little honey was embarrassed. After observing that there was no one around, he whispered in her ear, "My little darling, Wang Jin is going to attack us. If you don't leave now, it will be difficult to leave later. Do you want to leave your life here?"
"Ah! Wang Jin is going to attack us." Xiao Min screamed with a pale face, and Lai Cheng covered her mouth with his hand. If others heard this, Lai Cheng would definitely not have a good ending. At least he would be charged with spreading rumors.
After Lai Cheng covered her mouth, Xiao Min reacted immediately and turned around to arrange her departure without saying anything, not even asking about the accuracy of the information, because Xiao Min believed that Lai Cheng would not joke about his life and property.
Thinking of Wang Jin's terrifyingness, Xiao Min trembled all over.
To be honest, Xiao Min is not stupid, but rather a bit smart. Otherwise, she would not have been able to rely on her not-so-outstanding appearance to stay with Lai Cheng, a big shot in the Bay. There are all kinds of women in the end times, and powerful people can change women every day. Only she, Xiao Min, has been staying with Lai Cheng. This skill is rare.
After listening to Lai Cheng's words, and thinking of what she had seen and heard before, Xiao Min understood after a little thought that Wang Jin would absolutely, absolutely, absolutely not leave them alone here.
Lai Cheng waited until Xiao Min left, then he looked around restlessly, pacing back and forth in his exclusive tent, but did not personally mobilize his confidants, otherwise it would be too obvious and easy for people to see the problem.
Time passed by, and suddenly in S City, the Lishan army originally stationed in the city kept moving out, and armored vehicles and tanks began to slowly drive out of the city along the abandoned streets and drove towards the coalition camp.
A large number of fully armed soldiers trotted behind, and armored vehicles and tanks were also full of people, forming a mechanized army battle mode.
In the distance, artillery pieces were pulled forward quickly by tractors. After driving for a distance, the artillery began to unhook the artillery pieces from the tractors and constructed an artillery position with dozens of artillery pieces. There were five such artillery positions, and the range of these artillery pieces could bomb the coalition camp.
There were also dozens of helicopters flying at low altitude and began to patrol around the coalition camp. Each helicopter was loaded with missiles, and the huge aircraft gun hole pointed directly at the camp. The cabin was also full of mutants, eager to look at the camp ahead.
The scene of the army from the mountain base being dispatched shocked many people. Those officers quickly arranged defenses and mobilized troops to prepare for war.
Only Lai Cheng's face was livid, and he kept muttering to himself: "It's too late, it's too late, I'm still a step late, I should have left long ago."
As Lai Cheng whispered like a dream, a large dark cloud floated over in the distant sky.
On the horizon, a dark swarm of insects roared and swept over like a tide.
