After hearing Zhou Yiran's words, everyone sitting on the chairs fell silent.
They still had a glimmer of hope in their hearts, imagining that these people were only delayed because of a minor accident on the road.
But they all knew that the possibility of such an accident was zero.
Zhou Yiran also felt uncomfortable.
However, he knew that if he did not change the atmosphere in the meeting room at this time, the subsequent meeting would be difficult to proceed.
So he put aside his sadness and said at the conference table: "As everyone knows, this operation is the first time that we humans have taken the initiative to attack the zombies."
"And even with this first operation, we achieved a huge success!"
"In this operation, the total number of personnel deployed from Camp Rising Sun was 102,342. Currently, 61,518 of these soldiers have returned to the camp, resulting in a loss of over 40,000 soldiers, including the captain of the Fifth Battalion—Xiao Ziqiang."
"However, the sacrifices of these heroes were worth it, because our gains were beyond our imagination!"
"In this operation, we successfully killed over 100,000 zombies, including 16 zombie officials, including the zombie general - Corpse!"
When Zhou Yiran said this, everyone present turned their eyes to Lin Ziluo.
Anyone who is qualified to enter this conference room knows that the corpse was beheaded under the leadership of Lin Ziluo.
"Not only that, we also successfully blew up Corpse City No. 9's energy base, human flesh processing plant, energy storage depot, and laser weapon storage station... The destruction of these buildings has effectively paralyzed the entire Corpse City. Rebuilding it will take at least three years!"
After hearing Zhou Yiran's summary of his gains, everyone gradually recovered.
These brilliant and outstanding achievements are enough to boost the confidence of those present.
"Furthermore, we looted enough food and supplies to feed everyone in the camp for two months, nearly 100,000 energy blocks, and some laser firearms... Most importantly, we rescued over 80,000 compatriots from various human breeding factories, including many highly qualified humans, and especially one chosen one—Lin Ziluo, Lin Yingxiong."
Hearing this, the light in everyone's eyes became brighter.
These are all real supplies.
For this group of poor people who can hardly get enough food and would like to split a piece of energy into ten parts when fighting, this is simply getting rich overnight!
At this point in the meeting, the originally sad atmosphere seemed to have eased.
It’s not that people no longer care about the heroes who sacrificed their lives, but that there are more important things to do right now.
Seeing that everyone's enthusiasm was aroused, Zhou Yiran finally brought the topic back to the theme of the meeting.
"Everyone has just heard about the benefits gained from taking action before the Corpse Clan's 200th anniversary celebration."
"Three days from now, the Corpse Clan's 200th Anniversary Celebration will officially begin!"
"This meeting is to solicit everyone's opinions. Should we take action again during this celebration?"
Zhou Yiran spoke.
Everyone had already guessed about the theme of this meeting, so they were not very surprised by Zhou Yiran's words.
After only a brief pause, the discussion began.
"We can proceed with the operation. The gains from this operation are more than enough for us to launch the next wave of operations. Moreover, with the support of the current supplies, the success rate of the next operation will probably be much higher."
"Yes, with so many energy blocks now, our laser cannons and mechas can be fully activated, and our combat effectiveness has directly made a qualitative leap!"
Because of the great success of the previous operation and the enviable supplies, most people had no resistance to the next operation and spoke out in support.
However, some people who took a more comprehensive view of the issue stood up and said, "That being said, we cannot be blinded by the success of our previous actions."
"The reason the previous operation was successful was mainly because we caught the zombies off guard, leaving them with no time to react. If we had attacked so quickly, we would have easily fallen into their trap."
"There's another thing everyone should note: we don't have that many troops available. Forty thousand soldiers were sacrificed in this operation, and many of the remaining 60,000 soldiers are injured. They are all veterans who have undergone a long period of training, which is why they have sufficient combat effectiveness."
"We can't expect the new recruits to be deployed in just three days, right? They probably haven't even learned how to operate laser firearms yet. So, overall, our available forces are only 50,000, half the number from our previous operation. How can we say our combat effectiveness has increased significantly?"
Reasonable people have pointed out these obvious problems.
The raising of these questions also made those who supported the action in the meeting room fall into deep thought.
Through this operation, everyone saw the zombies' reactions.
When attacking Corpse City No. 9, the soldiers actually only lost more than 20,000 people.
The remaining 20,000 people died in the zombie reinforcements' carpet search of the ruins.
Just based on the zombies' violent reaction this time, we can know how much obstacles the next operation will encounter.
The issue of manpower is also important.
Now there are only 50,000 soldiers in the entire camp.
Even the smallest zombie city No. 10 has nearly 200,000 zombies. The top three zombie cities have more than one million zombies. What can your 50,000 soldiers use to fight?
