312: Chapter 312: The Dung Beetle Army

Soon after, 50 bombers took off from a base in the Northeast Military Region.

At the same time, the silo cover of a base in Inner Mongolia Province opened, and a missile, spewing hot flames, shot into the sky.

At Shen Tu Zheng Hao's command, the armored divisions began to move, advancing towards Batuo City in the north.

The design goal of the Dragon Slayer 3 strategic medium-range cruise missile was to accurately strike important enemy military targets. Its warhead was a cluster munition, capable of blanket bombing the target area.

Without surprise, the cruise missile arrived first at Batuo City. Because the Dark Night Squad had marked the location in advance, the missile hit the artillery group squarely. The missile exploded when it was a dozen meters from the ground, and the energy of the main warhead's explosion propelled hundreds of sub-munitions in all directions. The entire artillery position was instantly engulfed in flames, and hundreds of cannons were shattered in an instant.

Ten minutes later, the fighter jet group arrived in the southern part of Batuo City, beginning segmented, dense bombing of the only path leading to the city. Many landmines were detonated by the high temperature and impact of the explosions, triggering secondary explosions.

As the explosions sounded, the Dark Night Squad had also arrived at the hospital.

The guards at the entrance, already nervous from hearing the explosions, immediately attacked when they suddenly saw someone approaching.

However, these guards were no match for the Dark Night Squad. Two squad members instantly teleported in front of the guards, eliminating them with a single strike each.

Leaving two people to guard the door, Shen Wengang and his group continued without stopping, heading straight into the building.

It should be noted that among the Dark Night Squad members, except for Shen Wengang and Luoer, the others were only equipped with Combat Suits but did not have Digital Eyes or second-generation bone conduction microphones. Therefore, they did not possess night vision and had to wear additional night vision goggles to expand their field of view.

Several guards inside the building, hearing the commotion outside, were running out and encountered the Dark Night Squad head-on.

“Chirp, chirp, chirp~”

A cold light flashed, and several sharp, handleless throwing blades instantly flew out. The guards fell to the ground before they could even react.

The one who acted was Luoer.

The basement door was kicked open, and the Dark Night Squad members, led by Shen Wengang, walked in.

The people inside slowly raised their heads, looking at the sudden scene, and huddled together.

Because the squad members were wearing Combat Suits and looked somewhat like bandits, it was normal for everyone to be scared.

Shen Wengang took the lead in removing his Combat Suit, revealing his true face. The others followed suit.

“Don't be afraid, everyone. We are from the Huaguo Military, and we are here to rescue you,” Shen Wengang said.

The crowd began to stir, and some girls with weaker emotional resilience finally couldn't hold back and started crying loudly.

Where there was one, there were two. There were over 20,000 people inside, and with so many voices overlapping, the scene became chaotic.

“Everyone, please be quiet and listen to me carefully. The main force of Huaguo will arrive within an hour, and you will all be safe very soon. Before that, I hope you can remain calm and obey instructions,” Shen Wengang shouted loudly.

“Okay! We'll listen to you!” several older men took the lead in expressing their agreement.

With someone taking the lead, order was quickly restored at the scene.

An hour later, the main force successfully arrived, and the entire Wu La Han District was completely controlled.

After completing a series of deployments, Shen Tu Zheng Hao came to the basement.

After confirming that the Citizens detained here were indeed from the Bayan Sumu Settlement, Shen Tu Zheng Hao contacted Baili Ji.

Transporting all these more than 20,000 people back to the country was not an easy task.

Upon receiving confirmation from Shen Tu Zheng Hao, Baili Ji ordered the Northeast Military Region to dispatch transport planes for support. At the same time, all transport planes from the Northwest Military Region had also been dispatched.

On the battlefield, unexpected situations can arise at any time. Therefore, the evacuation of Citizens was the top priority, and speed was essential.

While the Military completely controlled the Wu La Han District, abnormal situations appeared in the main urban area of Batuo City.

“Report! Commander, there's a situation!” a Soldier ran into the basement, reporting urgently.

“What happened?” Shen Tu Zheng Hao asked.

“A large number of insects have appeared in the direction of the main city and are approaching our forces,” the Soldier reported.

“What kind of insects?” Shen Tu Zheng Hao asked.

“They look like… like dung beetless,” the Soldier replied hesitantly.

“dung beetless?” Shen Tu Zheng Hao was puzzled.

Why are there so many mutated insects these days?

“Yes. Many of them are rolling dung balls,” the Soldier said.

“Have the spider robots been deployed?” Shen Tu Zheng Hao asked.

“They've all been deployed, but those insects are very small and there are so many of them. I'm afraid tens of thousands of robots won't be able to handle them,” the Soldier said.

“Let's go, let's take a look!” Shen Tu Zheng Hao hurried out.

Shen Wengang and the Dark Night Squad also followed. The basement had already been taken over by the Military, so they no longer needed to stay.
