Chapter 956: The Battle at Hu Hot City!

"Who is it?!" Lie Ming Yi was slightly irritated at being interrupted, and snapped towards the direction of the voice. However, when the figure came into clear view, he could not help but tremble, "Leader, you're back?"

After they had left the small town, Yue Zhong had arranged for the people in his party to be hidden within a small hill, leaving behind White Bones to protect them, while he swiftly flew over back into the capital.

With the appearance of the Flesh-Eaters and Vampires, the ascent of the Sea Clan, the strange movements of the zombies, everything was forcing Yue Zhong to be on his toes. He felt a strong sense of danger.

When they saw it was Yue Zhong, everyone got to their feet at once, "Leader!"

Yue Zhong came to the main seat, turning to Ji Qing Wu and spoke gently, "It's been hard on you."

Yue Zhong was clear, that when he had left, Ji Qing Wu's presence was definitely not enough, and she would face tremendous difficulties in handling the 5 factions under him.

When she heard Yue Zhong's sincere words, it felt like all the exhaustion and pressure was worth it. She broke out into a dazzling smile, "As long as you're back."

After that, she stood to the side and sat down.

Yue Zhong assumed his position at the head of the meeting, surveying the meeting room full of the subordinates that had followed him and could not help but sigh.

In truth, he had already reached earlier, and was observing everyone's reactions in the dark, and saw what he would not be able to see if he was in the limelight.

Although those who stood out earlier were definitely loyal to him on the surface, there was no doubt that they had their own aspirations. It was not something strange after all, they were human, not puppets.

"I finally understood why those emperors of the past would clean their courts whenever they start up a new dynasty."

When Yue Zhong was around, he could naturally instill fear and control his subordinates. However, when he was not around, no one else could rein them in.

When those prideful ones that had stood out were swept by his gaze, their hearts could not help but tighten with a little fear.

Hu-er Ran eyed Yue Zhong, and with his beastly instincts, he could tell that Yue Zhong was now harboring a dangerous aura even much more than before. His ambitions were repressed even further, "He's now much more powerful than before! I've been killing so many Evolved zombies and Mutant Beasts this past year, yet how come I can't keep up with him? How did he evolve?"

At this time, a soldier suddenly came to the door, "Reporting! Leader!! There's an urgent update from the frontlines!"

Yue Zhong replied, "Come in!"

The soldier quickly rushed in and handed some documents to Yue Zhong.

Yue Zhong took a look at the stack of papers, and his frown became deeper, "India, Vietnam, Hebei, Guizhou, as well as Russia. 5 different armies attacking from 5 different directions. The Kingdom of God has truly deployed all they have this time."

This time, the Kingdom of God was determined to take down the capital of China, thus, sending out most of their pawns.

A strong, unified China was obviously something the Kingdom of God could not tolerate. Under the pressure of survival and vengeance, they had declared war on China. At the same time, they had ordered for their forces around China to act at the same time.

Other than the direction of Vietnam, the rest of the 4 armies were already invading into China. Even if China were to utilize a nuclear bomb to wipe them out, it would affect their own backyard.

Yue Zhong scanned the documents and spoke, "Open up your computers."

Everyone immediately turned their computers on, only to discover the urgent report that the soldier had brought back displayed in front of them.

"5 armies!"

Seeing this report, everyone's countenances turned ugly.

With Yue Zhong' current military might, there were about 100,000 elite soldiers. Of them, 20,000 had to maintain security and order within the cities, preventing the uprising of any ambitious people. The numbers that could truly be deployed numbered only 80,000.

Of the 80,000, there were 25,000 over at Guang Xi, 10,000 at Hunan, 45,000 in the capital. There was no particular advantage in the distribution of the forces.

If Yue Zhong were not around, the moment the 5 armies attacked, under the problem of a fractured command, it would be tough to face the invasion. Even now, it was still difficult. After all, there was no concrete numbers of the enemies right now, or their equipment.

After the world changed, there were zombies, Mutant Beasts and other various forms of obstacles. It became a problem for the subordinates under him to communicate or travel to and fro.

Lie Ming Yi took the first stand to proclaim his loyalty, "Leader, our 2nd Regiment is willing to take the vanguard position to wipe out all your enemies!"

When he thought of his earlier position on trying to make things difficult for Ji Qing Wu, he was naturally flustered.

Li Guang also stood up and spoke loudly, "Our 1st Regiment is willing to be the vanguard to wipe out those damn Russians."

"..."

The atmosphere immediately became lively, with the various subordinates stepping forward to volunteer.

Of the various forces he had, even Hu-er Ran had racked up merits from contributing so much, Yue Zhong could not touch him easily. It was natural for everyone to volunteer after the ugly episode earlier, in order to make up for their behavior.

Yue Zhong saw them scrambling to lead the fight, and his eyes flashed with appreciation, "Very good."

With such an attitude, the forces would be motivated to fight. If his generals were those only knew to play games, fool around with women, and partake in luxury, it would be hard for them to lead their troops.

Over at Hu Hot City, there were already various simple fortifications done up, as various Chinese soldiers took up their positions and weapons, standing guard.

One commander then let out a low howl like a beast, "They're here!!"

From afar, tanks, IFVs, cannons, rocket launchers and a whole wave of steel appeared on the horizon.

Hong! Hong! Hong!

When the enemy appeared, the Russian forces began to fire towards the defenses of the Chinese troops.

As the mighty rain of metal came pouring down, the structures were blasted apart, together with the soldiers within.

The explosions rang out continuously, raining hell upon the soldiers at the frontlines, and the earth quaked beneath them.

After the volley of fire, a number of Red Arrows appeared, launching another round of missiles, causing a sea of flames to erupt all over the Chinese defense lines.

Although this Russian Army had 20,000 soldiers, and their fuels and rations limited, they had brought a large amount of ammunition and firepower. They intended to crush the enemy by force. Once they succeed, they would be able to gain the rich resources of China. However, it was a huge risk as well, should they fail, they would have lost a huge part of their reserves.

"Scatter!"

After about 80 soldiers died, the frontline commander gave the order to retreat unwillingly, and they were forced to abandon their posts.

If they continued to stay stubbornly, the firepower of the Russian forces would be able to consume everything.

Seeing the frontline soldiers retreating, the Russian forces then sent out 3 infantry battalions as well as 2 armored battalions to charge into Hu Hot City.

The various Russian soldiers followed behind the tanks, launching a fierce assault on Hu Hot City. Their main objective was to occupy the city, and not use their firepower to crush everything.

Furthermore, although they had brought a large amount of ammunition, it was hard for them to gain anymore logistics from within their country. In order to prepare for a retaliation, they could only send their troopers over.

Inside the command vehicle, Gief spoke out in regret, "A pity, the situation within the country prevents us from utilizing more of our weapons, otherwise, the chances of victory would be increased by another 30%."

If they could utilize more of their heavy weapons, it would make occupying Hu Hot City so much easier.

The 5 battalions of the Russian forces charged ahead like a sharp sword, breaking through the various defenses, and invaded Hu Hot City easily.

Gief watched all these with a hint of appreciation, and smiled, "Seems like we will be drinking vodka this time tomorrow within the city."

At the moment he was gloating, an immense floating fortress suddenly appeared on one of the monitors, causing his face to turn pale, "WHAT?! What is that?!"

The Russian forces eyed the floating fortress, their eyes filled with shock.

Gief quickly spied the multiple cannons on the floating fortress through his various drones, and he screamed out somewhat in despair, "Damn Germans! They actually withheld this piece of information!! Convey my orders!! Utilize all we have, we must bring that thing down!!"

This time, the Russians had brought out a lot of their firepower, with over 130 assault helicopters. At the same time, there was the support of 36 Thunder Fighters from the Kingdom of God.

Under Gief's orders, the various aircraft quickly soared and made for the Sky Fortress.
