The zombies continued to surge forwards, as a number of H2s were suddenly hoisted by the larger L2s, and began firing out fireballs at the fleet.
Hong! Hong! Hong!
Under the attacks of the fireballs, the armored vehicles were blasted apart, with the soldiers within losing their lives.
Other than those H2s, within the zombie horde, there were still evolved zombies wielding weapons as they fired as well. This caused many of the elite soldiers to fall.
The number of zombies laying siege to the 15th Battalion reached roughly 1.5 million, under the command of the intelligent zombie, each wave was more terrifying than the next.
If it was not for Mount Tai absorbing most of the damage and fire, causing a bloody path, the soldiers would have fallen long ago. Even so, many still perished.
Due to the existence of those aerial zombies, the soldiers had no choice but to keep an eye out for the skies. If they were not careful, some of those monsters would swoop down to take a bite out of them.
Any soldier that suffered a scratch or bite wound would be quickly tied up and executed. Everyone had to be vigilant, otherwise, they would be killed.
Yue Zhong took out a dozen H2s casually, when he saw the increasing death count of the soldiers, and frowned. He sighed, and waved his hands, revealing 8 Reapers.
The 8 metal behemoths quickly came to life, their eyes flashed red under Bai Yi’s control.
When they appeared, they swiftly revealed their cannons and began unleashing carnage all over their surroundings.
A number of electromagnetic beams tore through the evolved zombies with unbelievable accuracy, tearing them apart.
There was a strange movement within the horde, as a huge number of H1s, H2s, H3s were lifted up by L2s and L3s. The next moment, a volley of fireballs began raining down upon those Reapers.
The bodies of the Reapers glowed brightly, as their energy shields appeared. When the fireballs slammed into those shields, ripples could be seen, but there was no damage to them.
At the next instant, the electromagnetic beams fired out once more, slamming into those H-Types and L-Types, easily tearing through the heads of those zombies.
Even the L3s that could withstand bullets and grenade blasts were helpless against those electromagnetic beams.
2 L4s the size of houses over 4m-tall, that had grown out black scales capable of withstanding rockets, were also pierced through by those beams, slumping lifelessly to the ground.
When all the commotion was over, all those evolved zombies that posed incredible threats had all been taken out, leaving behind the ordinary zombies.
“What the hell!! Those machines are too powerful!! Tanks are trash compared to them! What the hell is that technology?!”
“That was too terrifying!! Those machines!!”
“Fuck, to think that there were such Mechs on this Earth!”
“…”
Inside their vehicles, the soldiers of the 15th Battalion watched the Reapers destroy their enemies, stunned.
In terms of offense and defense, the Reaper was basically unrivaled on Earth, any other weapons or war could not compare to it.
Under the control of Bai Yi, the 8 Reapers continued to dish out carnage, tearing the Evolved zombies into pieces.
With such a large-scale battle, their efficiency was much higher than Yue Zhong. At the same time, their 4 cannons on each of them were able to fire out rapidly, killing the aerial zombies in the skies.
Once all 8 joined the fray, they provided a breather for the soldiers and decreased the casualty count drastically.
The majority of the zombies were already even more agile and perceptive compared to humans, however, their speed was not comparable to those vehicles at full speed.
At the same time, with Mount Tai carving out a bloody path, Yue Zhong forcefully brought the 15th Battalion out from the siege.
As he was killing his way out together with the 15th Battalion, deep amongst the zombies, there was an intelligent zombie standing with a furious expression. He had a medium build, with a long, thin blade at his waist. His hair was short, his looks handsome, as though Pan An had reincarnated.
He growled in a venomous low voice, “Damn it! Damn it!! Damn human, how dare you escape from my hands!! I will remember you!! When I catch you, I’ll rip you apart and drink your blood!!”
This zombie, Ren Jie, was extremely clear that with his current Type 5 strength, he would just be slapped into a meat paste by Mount Tai if he appeared in front of Yue Zhong. Hence, he had no choice but to hide among the zombies and watched them leave helplessly.
“That side should Guang Xi. Very good. Very good. One day, I will slaughter all the people in Guang Xi.”
Ren Jie shot another look of hatred at the direction where Yue Zhong was headed to, before turning around, and commanding the horde of zombies to move on towards Guizhou.
His intelligence was not low and knew that the human factions had already joined together over at Guang Xi, forming a powerful force. Furthermore, with Yue Zhong standing his ground, if Ren Jie was not careful, he might end up dead. What he needed was to amass more soldiers by invading Guizhou. Once his forces numbered more than 2 million, he could contend with the Guang Xi region with just numbers.
When Yue Zhong led the 15th Battalion back to Guang Xi, he immediately dissolved them and reintegrated them into his troops.
Having witnessed his strength and mysterious powers, the soldiers were already docile and obedient.
These were all elites, well-versed in various weapons. Once they were shuffled into Yue Zhong’s troops, his forces immediately received an upgrade in strength.
Reorganization of the troops was left to Zheng Ming He, while Yue Zhong disappeared.
“Damn it!! The resistance is truly strong.”
Over at Vietnam, Thai Nguyen City, Yao Li Hua saw the city walls full of holes and was thinking anxiously.
In order to take down Thai Nguyen City at one go, Yao Li Hua had deployed all of the VPDC, throwing all 20,000 elites into the battle.
He had thought that since Yue Zhong was not around, plus he had the reinforcements from the Kingdom of God, it was enough to allow him to conquer it quickly.
However, a few days had passed, and the casualty count on his side was nearing 4,000. He had just barely entered the city, and the battles were already intense. Who knew how much more of a price he had to pay.
These 4,000 soldiers were not 4,000 zombies. If they were zombies, even if they had to die, as long as it was an order, they would continue to fight. However, humans were different. Once the losses reached a certain threshold, they would lose their fighting spirit.
Inside a secretive location within Thai Nguyen City, there was the command center of Yue Zhong’s forces. Within, there was a teenage girl dressed in military uniform, exuding a valiant aura as she was keeping an eye on the displays and issuing commands.
This beautiful girl was precisely Ming Jia Jia, the leader that Yue Zhong had appointed over Vietnam. After the past 2 years, she had gone through a baptism and was vastly different. She had since grown more confident and emitted a charm.
One ordinary female soldier came up to her and repeated, “General, District C2 had been breached. Colonel Pan Jin Yong and another expert had been injured, and were evacuated.”
Ming Jia Jia responded indifferently, “Send Gan Tao over to E5.”
“Yes!” The lady commander replied, before falling silent, and chipping in, “General, right now, our forces are insufficient. With their continuous attack, we can last another 10 days at most. Should we request for reinforcements?”
Yao Li Hua was the snakehead of Vietnam, after hiding for 2 years, and gaining the support of the Kingdom of God, he had managed to surpass Yue Zhong’s forces in Vietnam.
Although Ming Jia Jia was doing her best to commandeer, and the soldiers were fighting their hearts out, in terms of advantage, they were slowly losing.
After all, Vietnam had not been on Yue Zhong’s priorities in terms of development, thus, Ming Jia Jia and her forces had no advantage when comparing weapons, that was why it was even more tiresome.
Ming Jia Jia had a resolute look, “No need. We can definitely hold out, and we must. I will not let anyone destroy his work.”
At this moment, a voice sounded, “I’m here.”
When Ming Jia Jia heard the voice she had been pining for, her body trembled slightly, as she turned around. Her eyes glistened with tears of joy and she leaped into Yue Zhong’s embrace, her strong facade breaking as she cried out, “Master!! Jia Jia misses you so!! It’s been over a year, how come you’re only here now?? Do you not want Jia Jia anymore?”
Yue Zhong chuckled, and hugged her tightly as he kissed her forehead, “How can that be? You’re my general, you know.”
Ming Jia Jia revealed a bright smile, with tears still in her eyes, “Hehe.”
