The next day.
Lu Ping woke up early.
After going downstairs to eat, Lu Ping took Xia Mo and others out of the city to prepare to take over the remaining warehouses.
These warehouses are all outside the city, and naturally there are herds of beasts everywhere outside the city.
Therefore, fighting is inevitable during the collection process.
Fortunately, these were not a problem. Lu Ping only spent half a day to complete the remaining warehouses and store all the supplies.
After finishing packing, Lu Ping and others returned and prepared to rest for another day before returning to the East China Sea tomorrow.
But as the saying goes, things are unpredictable. That night, Zhao Lei held a celebration banquet to celebrate the recapture of Pingxiang, and everyone was drinking happily.
The shrill alarm made everyone's face change drastically.
They were very familiar with this sound; it was the alarm sounded by the beasts attacking.
Immediately afterwards, a soldier hurried into the hall.
"Report to the commander, we are under attack by a herd of beasts, requesting support!"
Zhao Lei stood up immediately upon hearing this, his face full of surprise and shock.
"You...what did you say? The city was under attack by a herd of beasts. Are you sure?"
"It's absolutely true, Commander! Hurry and order reinforcements! The city walls can't hold!"
the soldier shouted.
“This…this…how is this possible…”
Zhao Lei couldn't believe it.
Although the others did not react as strongly as Zhao Lei, their eyes were also filled with confusion.
Since the sudden cessation of beast attacks around the world more than half a year ago, there has been no more beast tidal attacks on cities.
And tonight, they actually started attacking again?
"Quick, everyone take your positions immediately."
After a moment of silence, Zhao Lei suddenly reacted and gave a decisive order.
Upon hearing this, everyone started to get busy and mobilize soldiers for reinforcement.
"husband....."
"Will there be any trouble in the East China Sea?"
At this moment, Xia Mo suddenly thought of it.
When the others heard this, they also showed worry on their faces.
"It's very likely. Call and ask immediately to find out the details."
Lu Ping nodded and said to Tang Qi.
Tang Qi didn't waste any time and dialed Zhao Yuanyi's number on the spot.
…
"Hello, who is it?"
Soon, Zhao Yuanyi's confused voice sounded.
"Deputy Commander Zhao, I'm Tang Qi. Is there any situation in our East China Sea? Is the beast herd attacking the city?" Tang Qi asked hurriedly.
"Ah, a group of beasts attacking the city? No?" Zhao Yuanyi woke up and said with a little surprise.
"No? That's strange?" Tang Qi asked in confusion.
"No, everything is normal."
"Why, what happened?"
Zhao Yuanyi said with concern.
"Uh... yes, we are in Pingxiang now, and we are under attack by a group of beasts."
Tang Qi didn't know how to explain it, so he could only speak in general terms.
"What? Pingxiang was attacked!"
"Could it be that...the beast herd is starting to move again?" Zhao Yuanyi's expression changed slightly.
"I'm not sure about that, but you have to be prepared immediately," Tang Qi reminded.
"Okay, I understand. I'll order full alert right away."
"Um, when will you and Commander Lu come back?"
Zhao Yuanyi asked again.
"I don't know either. If Donghai is fine, it will probably take a few days." Tang Qi replied.
"Okay, I understand. I'll contact you immediately if I have any questions."
"Yeah, I know."
After hanging up the phone, Zhao Yuanyi hurriedly got up and dressed, and immediately issued an order for full alert.
"Hubby, Zhao Yuanyi said that our East China Sea is fine and there is no beast tide."
"I have put him on full alert." Tang Qi said to Lu Ping.
"Oh, I'm glad you're okay, otherwise it would be really troublesome."
Lu Ping breathed a sigh of relief.
"Husband, it seems from what you said that you plan to stay and help?"
Tang Qi guessed what Lu Ping was thinking.
"Well, in this situation, how do we go?"
Lu Ping nodded.
"Yeah, it's not nice to leave like this."
Xia Mo frowned.
"In that case, why not stay for two days and leave after the situation stabilizes."
Mo Xiaoxiao suggested.
"Okay, it's decided. Let's stay and see the situation first."
Lu Ping finally made the final decision.
While Lu Ping and others were discussing, Zhao Yuanyi and others had already left, and only Zhao Yu was still in the banquet hall.
At this moment, the sound of gunfire outside the city was deafening.
The roars of the beasts and the shouts of the soldiers were endless.
It was obvious that the battle was very fierce and had reached a white-hot level.
Zhao Yu was already extremely anxious, but she wanted to stay and accompany Lu Ping and others.
Lu Ping and others were discussing something, so she didn't want to disturb them.
"Haha, Miss Zhao must be anxious."
"Sorry, I was just discussing something."
Lu Ping smiled apologetically.
"Oh, oh, it's okay."
Zhao Yu shook his head awkwardly upon hearing this.
"By the way, Commander Lu, can you stay and help us?"
Then, Zhao Yu couldn't help but say.
Pingxiang had just experienced a battle and its strength was greatly damaged.
Now that a group of beasts are attacking the city, she certainly hopes that Lu Ping can stay and help.
"Well, as long as Donghai is alright, I can stay and help."
Lu Ping nodded slightly.
"Really? Thank you, Commander Lu!"
Zhao Yu was delighted after hearing this.
"You're welcome. Let's go and take a look at the city wall."
Lu Ping greeted with a smile.
Then, everyone left together.
Outside the city government compound, the streets were filled with soldiers and civilians, and the entire city seemed to be in great panic.
Lu Ping ignored all this and hurried to the city wall.
Pingxiang's city wall is about twenty meters high. It is built against the mountain and is overall in an arc shape.
The city walls are also built entirely of fine steel components, with a thickness of more than four meters and amazing defensive capabilities.
Even a mountain giant would have to work hard to break the city.
At this time, the battle was going on fiercely on the city wall.
Zhao Yuanyi and others also participated in the battle in person and led the troops.
Below the city was a dense herd of beasts, which were launching a frantic attack on the city walls.
In the distance, the herd of beasts was a black mass, as if endless.
"Boom~"
"Dongdongdong~"
At this moment, a black dragon crocodile suddenly appeared in the herd.
"roar!"
The Black Dragon Crocodile roared and strode towards the city wall.
Wherever it passed, countless wild beasts followed, like thousands of troops moving together, with a terrifying momentum!
"Shoot, concentrate fire."
"Order the artillery to open fire immediately."
It was the first time that Zhao Lei saw the Black Dragon Crocodile. He was horrified and immediately gave orders.
"Bang! Bang!"
“Da da da…”
"Boom..."
Suddenly, a dense network of firepower poured down, completely covering the Black Dragon Crocodile.
