31: blood and fire

Da da da!!!

Boom boom boom!!!

At this moment, the entire War Dragon Group base seemed like a war beast awakening, roaring furiously at the massive rat tide.

Machine guns, rifles, heavy artillery, field guns... countless scorching firelights formed lines of fire, and a steel torrent carrying immense power immediately poured into the monster horde, eliciting countless wails.

Ooh... roar!!!

Roar roar roar!!!

Under the blanket of firepower, a large number of monsters died tragically on the spot, and even those injured and fallen were crushed by the successive waves of the rat tide... With the cooperation of the Dragon Breath Squad and the foremost positions, the leading edge of the black beast tide was torn open, creating a huge gap that severely hindered their advance.

Despite this, the rat tide was still advancing at a terrifying speed.

Even in the face of the War Dragon Group's heavy firepower, the massive numbers of rat monsters charged fearlessly, as if they only wanted to pave a path for their kind behind them with their own bodies.

Then, these low-level monsters were reduced to mangled limbs and bodies under the concentrated fire, wailing as they died.

At this moment, the Beast General-level rat monsters were crouching low, lurking within the monster horde, advancing stealthily to avoid being targeted by heavy firepower.

In recent years, large-scale battles between monsters and humans have been continuous, with multiple major battles occurring on average every day.

Over time, monsters have accumulated extensive experience in assaulting human bases.

At the highest watchtower of the War Dragon Group base.

A burly, middle-aged man in military uniform with his left eye covered by a black patch, his gaze sharp, quickly scanned the beast horde before giving a direct order:

"High-explosive grenades ready! Nine o'clock, eleven o'clock, three o'clock, and seven o'clock directions—some unruly Beast Generals are lurking there!"

He was Li Yunfei, the War Dragon Group Commander.

Known as the indomitable War General with a body of steel, he was also one of the few High-level Generals in the entire Ninth Army, possessing formidable strength.

In front of Li Yunfei, three defensive lines formed a horn-like shape, collectively blocking the monster charge.

The foremost position was indeed the blocking position formed by the Dragon Breath Squad and the vanguard battalion, and it was also the position with the most heavy firepower.

On both flanks, there was an reinforced battalion providing covering fire to alleviate the pressure.

This was a defensive formation adopted by the entire Ninth Army, and it was a valuable experience accumulated through continuous battles with monsters.

Then, Li Yunfei's gaze pierced through a distance of several thousand meters.

In his sight, the War Generals of the Dragon Breath Squad and the front-line defensive positions were closely integrated, resisting the frenzied charge of the rat tide.

Although this approach seemed foolish, there was truly no other option.

If these rat tides were allowed to charge unchecked, the entire War Dragon Group base would probably be surrounded, and that would be the true dead end.

Instead of sitting idly by and fighting like cornered beasts, it was better to take the initiative and try to disrupt the rat tide's offensive rhythm.

Strike while the iron is hot, then the momentum wanes, and finally, it's exhausted!

This was the crystallization of ancient wisdom, now applied to the battlefield against monsters.

As long as the beast tide's offensive posture was disrupted or even broken, the scales of victory would already tip in favor of the War Dragon Group.

However, this Level 3 Beast Tide had no Lord-level presence.

Li Yunfei gazed into the distance, and at the end of his vision was a row of giant monsters dozens of times larger than ordinary rat monsters.

This row of giant rat monsters possessed a physique comparable to a heavy truck, and all the surrounding low-level monsters kept their distance from them.

Around them, smaller monsters circled, respectfully guarding them like escorts.

"One, two, three, four, five... eight, nine High-level Generals and so many Beast Generals, this beast tide really thinks highly of me, Li, and the War Dragon Group!"

Muttering softly, Li Yunfei's gaze retracted from the distance and fell upon the charging rat monster horde.

These rat monsters, mutated by the rr virus, each measured a full thirty centimeters in length; when gathered, they formed a vast, dark mass.

Even an ordinary War General, if caught alone in such a beast tide, would surely die.

And these eight five-person battle formations covered each other, coordinating flawlessly.

The main attackers and flank defenders alternated positions, ensuring that their physical strength could quickly recover for subsequent rotations.

Thud thud thud thud!!!

Above them, two Vulcan cannons extended from the bottom of the cabin of each Falcon Helicopter.

A firing rate of up to seven thousand rounds per minute provided cover for these forty Warrior Generals.

Ten Vulcan cannons fired at full power, indiscriminately strafing the surrounding rat monsters to relieve pressure on the Dragon Breath Squad members.

Boom boom boom!!!

Crimson tongues of flame spewed forth, and batch after batch of massive rat monsters turned to ashes in the inferno, wailing as they died.

Despite this, the successive waves of the rat tide stretched for thousands of meters; just one glance gave a feeling of helplessness.

Although these forty Warrior Generals were very strong, in the face of this vast beast tide, they still felt like a drop in the bucket.

Five Falcon Helicopters were simply insignificant before the immense beast tide.

Suddenly, Li Yunfei's gaze sharpened.

From a distance, several Beast General-level creatures were slowly shifting positions during the charge, attempting to bypass the Dragon Breath Squad's battle formation and attack the human soldiers from the periphery.

"Hmph, these cunning fellows!!"

Li Yunfei muttered softly to himself and immediately ordered:

"Heavy artillery battalion, howitzer battalion, reserve three to five rounds specifically for those Beast General-level monsters trying to fish in troubled waters."

"Rapid-fire artillery battalion and field artillery battalion, at all costs, fire all ammunition as quickly as possible, then take up your firearms and Battle Blades, and reinforce the foremost positions."

"These damn monsters have gotten smarter. Zhao Lengzi, Iron Bull, Scorpion, follow me to reinforce."

"If the commander dies, the battalion commander takes over; if the battalion commander dies, the company commander takes over... Remember my words, this battle, we must win!!!"

After issuing three consecutive emergency orders, Li Yunfei flipped over the railing and leaped directly from the five-story watchtower.

At the same time, figures also descended from three other watchtowers near Li Yunfei.

He did not have a habit of calling for aid; in fact, none of the Ninth Army's three main regiments would call for aid.

When facing monster charges or even encirclement, they would all choose to fight to the death.

Even if they ultimately sacrificed themselves, they would take down a large number of monsters with their glorious grenades.

The title of the Four Iron-Blooded Main Regiments was forged in these fierce battles, one after another.

Only through the baptism of blood and fire could one be worthy of the honorary title of the War Dragon Group.

A dragon fights in the wilderness, its blood black and yellow!!!

Just before landing, Li Yunfei braced his hands against the tower wall, executed a somersault, and landed steadily.

Whoosh!!

A blur of a figure flashed past; the speed of a High-level General was fully unleashed, and Commander Li was rapidly approaching the front line at 200m/s.

Behind him, three figures were following closely with all their might, forming a spearhead formation.

A cold gleam arrives first, then the spear strikes like a dragon!

At this moment, everyone was resolute, with expressions of facing death unflinchingly.

Because there, not only was the Dragon Breath Squad, but also his brothers from the War Dragon Group...
