Upon seeing the equipment and strength of Yue Zhong’s troops, everyone in SY County celebrated the fact that they had not gone head to head with Yue Zhong. Based on his weapons and machinery, if it had really come to a clash? Even if they won against Yue Zhong, they would have suffered greatly.
While equipment was not the deciding factor of the success of a battle, it was one of the strongest factors. If 2 armies of similar size were to clash and one side was using rifles against the other with tanks, it was next to impossible.
“Commander Yue, according to our agreement, please send your troops to assist with the clearing of zombies.” When Yue Zhong arrived, the army had sent out an envoy to remind Yue Zhong.
“I know! Go tell Commander Shen that I’m about to set off!!” Yue Zhong directly replied.
After the fierce battle between Su Dongming and Yue Zhong, the tanks and assault helicopters that were destroyed by Yue Zhong, as well as the numerous elite soldiers that were annihilated, Su Dongming’s once tyrannical military strength was greatly diminished. It had fell to the lowest position of the 5 major heads, and was now only the Vice Division Commander. The Division Commander post went to the strongest now which was Shen Hongyang.
Of course, the other 3 powers only had their smaller corps, but were conferred the vice Division Commander Posts as well.
After sending the envoy on his way, Yue Zhong went to find Guo Quan: “Guo Quan!! This place here is our path of retreat. If this place comes under attack, the brothers of the 4 battalions will all be in peril. This time, I’m bringing the troops to clean up the horde, you have to protect this place! Are there any questions?”
[TN: Guo Quan is the leader of the small recon group that had be on watch when Ning Guang County tried to attack Yue Zhong previously. He also gained alot of merit for holding the fort when Shen Xue attacked.]
This time, Yue Zhong only intended to bring 4 battalions to fight at the front line, the best of Ning Guang County was kept at SY County, to prevent any potential trouble.
After all, in this post-apocalyptic world, anything could happen. Yue Zhong did not wish to see while he was fighting in the frontline, his path of retreat would be suddenly cut off by his “allies”.
Guo Quan stared at Yue Zhong, and his face displayed a resolute expression as he replied: “No problem!! Commander Yue, even if I have to risk my life, I will definitely defend this place!”
Guo Quan had went through countless battles, and grown from a normal survivor to become the Vice-Commander of the First Battalion of Ning Guang County. He was an exceptional military personnel. War was the best form of tempering, and it had caused Guo Quan to grow into a good commander in just the short span of 2 months.
Yue Zhong left Guo Quan, while bringing Ning Guang County’s 2nd, 3rd and 4th Battalion, SY’s 8th Battalion, and his Special Forces. He left with a total of 5 battalions and joined the military as they made their way towards the zombie horde that was coming.
SY County’s military had also mobilized a total of 5,000 people, marching towards the direction of SY County.
Due to the preciousness of fuel, other than the self-propelled rocket launchers, and the infantry fighting vehicles, as well as the various armored vehicles, the rest of the fighters had to use their feet to march on.
