Chapter 531: A Counterattack 4 After Xiao Qing heard this, she lowered her head with lifeless eyes after failing to fight for herself.
Let her choose? How could she have a choice? She could only weakly and resignedly answer, "Yes, I will follow my family's arrangements in everything."
——
Two days later, perhaps knowing that something bad was about to happen, the sky, which had been clear and bright, suddenly became gloomy and the sun had already disappeared somewhere.
Xiao Jingyang led his men to the Shen Ran base early in the morning, but they stopped at Anshi and found a place to hide. However, soon more than a dozen teams left with more than a dozen large boxes of things, but they were still heading towards the base.
Shen Ran and Zhang Yue had been waiting for them nearby. Even though they were far away, they had mental detection capabilities, especially for things within 50 kilometers of Shen Ran. As long as he wanted to know, nothing could be hidden from him.
Therefore, their every move was completely in his hands.
Although Zhang Yue's mental power could not detect as far as Shen Ran's, the place where they were hiding was not far from Xiao Jingyang and the others, so she also saw their actions. However, she could not see what was in the box.
So he asked Shen Ran, "What's in those big boxes? I can smell it from so far away, and it has a slightly sweet and fishy smell."
Shen Ran replied, "I thought it was naive for Xiao Jingyang to bring tens of thousands of people here to take over our base. Now it seems that he still has some brains. Those big boxes are filled with fresh mutant animal limbs, bloody. They must have been killed early in the morning. How can they not be fishy and sweet."
"What? So he wants to use these bloody mutant animal limbs to attract zombies, and then take advantage of the opportunity when we are dealing with the zombies, catch us off guard, and reap the benefits again?"
"That's right!" Shen Ran nodded.
Hearing this, Zhang Yue gritted his teeth in anger and his eyes widened.
This Xiao Jingyang is so cruel!
If their base was an ordinary base, without a check, so many bloody limbs would not only attract zombies, but also likely cause a zombie tide. By then, even if they survived, they would probably have suffered countless casualties and be exhausted. Then if they attacked again, they would just become fish on his chopping board, to be slaughtered by him.
In a situation where the enemy is strong and we are weak, it is indeed a good way to seize a base. It saves trouble and effort, but it is too cruel! He did this without caring about the lives of so many people in the base.
Fortunately, their base is not an ordinary base, and they are not ordinary psychics. Xiao Jingyang wants to use this method to deal with them? Dream on!
"Okay, don't be angry. We should just treat them the way they have treated us. Let's go, or we will let them succeed." Shen Ran comforted her, then turned around and told Li Xu to arrange more than a dozen teams to chase after the dozen teams.
With so many people and teams going there, they have to avoid those who have come out of the base to do the mission. It still takes some time to transport those dozen large boxes of things to the vicinity of the base to attract the zombies.
More than three hours later, Xiao Jingyang's men finally came back and reported to him that the task had been completed.
Xiao Jingyang smiled with satisfaction, but he had to wait for a while. After all, no matter how strong the smell of blood was, it would not attract the zombies so quickly. An City had been almost cleared out by the people at Shen Ran's base. Even if the remaining zombies were attracted, it would not have any effect. He had to wait for the zombies from other cities that had not been cleared to come over. This would take some time. But it wouldn't take too long. It was estimated that the zombies would arrive in the middle of the night. He was waiting for that moment.
Xiao Jingyang waved his hand and said, "Everyone, eat and drink enough to get enough rest, and get up at 4 a.m. tomorrow to prepare for the battle."
(End of this chapter)
Chapter 532: Counterattack 5 It was night. Maybe because they had enough sleep, maybe because they knew the war was going to start, or maybe because of the inexplicable uneasiness that arose in their hearts, so everyone woke up at around three in the morning.
Boom, boom, boom! Before Xiao Jingyang could gather people to prepare for battle, he heard a vibration sound coming from afar.
He knew that a group of zombies were coming. Judging from the sounds, there should be quite a lot of them. It was most likely a small zombie tide.
Thinking of the tragic situation when their base had to deal with the zombie tide before, and imagining the tragic situation that was about to happen here, Xiao Jingyang already felt that victory was in sight, and his heart suddenly became excited.
He originally thought that Shen Ran was still young, and no matter how capable he was, the base he built would only be a small base. Unexpectedly, when he arrived here and saw that this base was so large and covered such a large area, which was completely comparable to the two bases in Kyoto, he was shocked.
As a result, he felt even more that only their Xiao family was worthy of owning such a base. How could a mere major general own it? Now the plan has reached the second step. As long as the third step is successful, this base will be his.
He felt that Shen Ran would definitely not know that he would make a surprise attack, and he would never have thought that the base, which had always been peaceful, would be attacked by a wave of zombies in the middle of the night. Thinking of this, he felt excited, and now he couldn't wait to gather everyone together and prepare for an ambush.
The zombie tide is getting closer and closer, and the ground is shaking more and more. The place where they are hiding now is well planned, and they can completely avoid the zombie tide and remain undetected, so there is nothing to worry about.
But as time went by, and the ground was shaking, he felt something was increasingly wrong, as if the zombie horde was heading towards them.
At this time, the soldier who was sent to investigate the situation hurried back, shouting as he ran, "It's bad. The boxes we sent to hide near the base during the day were transported back at some point. All of them are now placed around our resting place 200 meters away."
"What? The box that was sent was sent back and placed near our resting place?" If that's the case, then his plan was discovered by the other party, and he was tricked in return? Xiao Jingyang was shocked. Then he said in shock: "In that case, won't the zombies come to our side?"
Their location was to the north of the base, so they could attack in the chaos or evacuate quickly without any delay. However, if the zombies came directly in their direction, the consequences would be disastrous.
When Xiao Jingyang thought of the upcoming zombie wave, his face immediately turned pale. The zombies nowadays are no longer as mechanical and dumb as before, allowing humans to kill them. The zombies nowadays not only have high attack and defense, but also have developed intelligence and know how to deal with humans. Not only are they difficult to deal with, but if a few mutant zombies appear among them, and it is now the middle of the night and the sky is dark, how can they be their opponents?
In this case, the chances of winning this battle are too slim for them.
Moreover, the Xiao family's power was not very large to begin with. The tens of thousands of people he brought were already one-tenth of the total combat power. If they were to be defeated here, it would be impossible for the Xiao family to dominate Kyoto in the future.
More importantly, he didn't want to die.
The previous battle against the zombie horde was still vivid in his mind. He almost died at the mouth of a mutated zombie. With a trauma in his heart, he dared not stay here to fight. He had to retreat quickly before the zombie horde arrived.
So he quickly ordered, "Go, retreat quickly."
(End of this chapter)
Chapter 533: Counterattack 6 They had originally gathered together to act like a mantis stalking a cicada while the oriole was waiting behind, and they were ready to be the oriole. Now the situation of the war had changed and their own lives were involved, so at the order to retreat, everyone jumped into the car and evacuated quickly.
But the zombies were already here, so how could they just leave if they wanted to? Their car had just gone two kilometers when the zombie horde arrived at their resting place. How could those dozens of large boxes of mutated animal limbs be enough for them to eat? In an instant, they were all eaten up by the thousands of zombies that arrived first. Naturally, most of the remaining zombies who didn't get to eat the meat were unwilling to give up.
They smelled human scent in two directions, one was stronger and farther away, and the other was slightly lighter and very close. The far one was in the direction of Shen Ran's base, and the close one was in the direction of Xiao Jingyang's escape.
No matter how intelligent the zombies are, when they are hungry, the most important thing is to eat the meat as quickly as possible. For those who are far away, it would be the same if they turn back. So all the zombies immediately chased in the direction Xiao Jingyang left.
After seeing it through telescopes, Li Xu, Lu Yiming, Xia Yuan, Chen Qidong and Liu Gang all complained.
Chen Qidong said: "Fuck, Xiao Jingyang looked quite courageous, but I didn't expect him to be so cowardly. He ran away without even putting up a fight."
Li Xu said, "That's right. When I saw him come up with such a sinister trick, I thought he was very capable. I didn't expect him to be such a coward. He couldn't even handle a few zombies. He actually had the nerve to rob our base. He's too shameless."
Lu Yiming nodded, "Well, it's indeed quite shameless, but it looks like we don't have to fight this battle."
After hearing this, Xia Yuan asked: "But if we don't fight, there is no way to show the prestige of our base. What if he brings more people and comes up with a more sinister plan?" Everyone felt that he was right, so they turned around and looked at Shen Ran.
Shen Ran also felt that Xiao Jingyang was quite a coward, but he had planned so many things for them, and even though he failed, it didn't mean he could be let off easily, otherwise wouldn't he appear to be easy to bully? He pinched his chin and thought for a while, then said, "Then let's give them a couple of shots in the ass."
The enhanced thermal weapons were extremely powerful, enough to shock Xiao Jingyang.
When everyone heard this, they thought it was a good idea, so they set up the tanks they brought and adjusted the height and range.
Boom! Boom! Two huge explosions sounded behind Xiao Jingyang, killing half of the tens of thousands of zombies that were about to catch up with them. Their bodies and limbs flew everywhere. The power was so great that even those who were more than 200 meters away had their internal organs injured. They groaned and spat out a mouthful of sweet blood.
Xiao Jingyang also brought thermal weapons, but he had not had time to arrange them yet, and their thermal weapons were not strengthened. They were still the same ones used in the previous civilized era. One shot could only kill a few hundred zombies.
But the opponent's two shots killed tens of thousands of them!
If a shell of this magnitude were to hit them...
I guess he was dead without leaving any trace.
Xiao Jingyang finally realized that his plan had already been discovered by Shen Ran, otherwise the large box containing animal limbs that attracted zombies that he had sent people to secretly transport and hide would not have been sent back and placed near their resting place.
This was the gift that Shen Ran gave back to him.
The two more shots they fired were actually a warning to him not to dream of attacking his base again, otherwise he would end up like those zombies.
When he realized this, he shuddered all over.
(End of this chapter)
Chapter 534 Finale No wonder their base is so well developed and covers such a large area. It turns out that they have a gap, and the gap is not just a little bit, but a galaxy.
The gap is so huge. If they still want to take over Shen Ran's base, not only will they get nothing, but they will also lose their own base and their entire family.
Thinking about the consequences, he felt scared.
Therefore, the insidious and greedy Xiao Jingyang was frightened.
He swore in his heart that it didn't matter who he offended, but he would never offend Shen Ran.
Although the two shots fired by Shen Ran killed a lot of zombies, there were still many zombies left, and they would not be distracted by the death of their companions. They would continue to chase the borrowed objects they wanted until they got them in their mouths.
Nearly a thousand people brought by Xiao Jingyang were injured by the two cannonballs. No matter how afraid of death he was, he could not abandon so many people and escape by himself. Otherwise, who would be willing to be loyal to him after he disappointed everyone? Therefore, he could not escape for the time being.
Fortunately, the sky had begun to turn white at this time, and some shadows could be seen in the blur. He quickly took everyone out of the car and started the battle.
After making all kinds of calculations and thinking that the plan was foolproof, in the end, it ended up with bad consequences.
In the end, one-eighth of their men were killed or injured in this battle, and they fled back to the Kyoto base in a mess.
Unable to win over Shen Ran, they tried to win over other bases.
However, most of the big base bosses felt that although Kyoto was big, it was divided into three forces, and they had been fighting for so many years, and now the development was not as big as their local bases. Since the person with the highest status was gone, why should they condescend to listen to those people's orders? It would be better for them to dominate, so the Xiao family's wishful thinking did not work.
The Xiao family was not the only one who wanted to win over other bases to expand their power. The other two forces also tried to do so, but they were also unsuccessful. Then they found that the development of their three bases was falling behind. No wonder no one was willing to obey them, so they had to start making peace and banding together. Only then did the power of Kyoto gradually grow again.
However, no matter how big they are, their pace of development is still a bit slow. Among the five major forces in the southeast, northwest, northeast and southwest, they are the second to last. The reason they are ranked last is because of the lack of local supplies. There is nothing they can do about it.
Ranked first is the South where Shen Ran is in charge.
Because of the spatial advantages of Shen Ran and Zhang Yue, the southern base developed the fastest, whether it was military, technology, agriculture, or industry... Many industries began to slowly return to normal.
They no longer have to worry about food, clothing, housing and transportation, and they can even provide goods to sell to other bases. When facing zombies or mutated animals, they are no longer as frightened and panicked as before. When there are few people, they will fight if they can, and if they can't, they will go back to the base and bring a lot of people to fight again, and they will eventually kill them.
I don't know if it's because their people are too ferocious, or because those zombies or mutated animals have become smart and know that the people in the southern base are not easy to mess with. The number of zombies and mutated animals in the south is decreasing even if no one is killing them.
Even if we occasionally encounter them, they often turn around and run away when we see them from a distance.
There were several times when Zhang Yue and Shen Ran went out for adventures. Even though they were far away from the zombies and mutated animals, they sensed the danger and ran away.
Zhang Yue: . . . . .
Shen Ranye: ......
After encountering this kind of thing a few times, they rarely went out again.
Three years later, after Shen Ran's hard work, Zhang Yue finally became pregnant.
However, her belly was so big that she needed a support belt to walk. When she was six months pregnant, Wang Jing helped her check and found out that she had four babies, two boys and two girls, which was exactly the right number for the word "good".
After hearing the test results, many people were envious, especially Lin Miaoxin.
She is pregnant again. After Zhang Yue's test results came out, she glared at Chen Qidong with resentment, "See? Others have solved all their problems with one child, but you made me pregnant again and again. Do you know how painful it is to give birth? You are so cruel!"
Chen Qidong: .
How can you blame him for how many babies he gets pregnant with? It's not up to him to decide how many sperms put into the stomach can survive.
However, pregnant women are easily emotional, and he has to bear all the consequences, whether good or bad. Otherwise, it would be bad if she starts to think too much and suffers from depression.
So he nodded humbly and said, "Yes, yes, it's all my fault. After we have this one, we won't have any more. I'll get sterilized later."
Lin Miaoxin: . . . . . .
She was just saying it casually and she didn't really blame him, so what? But this was already her third child and she wouldn't be able to take care of another one. When she decided to give birth, she asked Wang Jing to help her with a vasectomy.
