My teammates couldn't hold on any longer.
Especially Qingluan, the little girl had been holding on for so long without saying a word, her face was already pale and her forehead was covered with beads of sweat!
Fang Qingdai's face was terribly dark. There was no point in stabilizing the defense line if they couldn't wait for reinforcements!
"Retreat!" Fang Qingdai gave the order, and her teammates breathed a sigh of relief.
But the other squads fighting alongside Fang Qingdai's team panicked instantly!
"retreat?"
"Where to retreat? How to retreat? Where are you going?"
The crowd erupted in uproar. In the blink of an eye, several more people had their necks snapped by the beast!
Fang Qingdai gritted her teeth: "Everyone retreat to the rear. The official team is in the rear; let them hold the line!"
Everyone was at their limit, and their hearts were completely disheartened as they waited for reinforcements but received no response.
Military merit is important, but what is more important than life?
They figured that since Commander Yu hadn't issued a retreat order and their respective squads had already used up their rest time, they were afraid of being labeled as deserters if they retreated without permission, so they persevered.
Now that Fang Qingdai has given the order, someone has taken the lead, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief!
If superiors want to make things difficult, at least one person should stand in front of them!
However, many of the ability users who had been fighting behind Fang Qingdai's team and had been protected by her team many times spoke up: "We really can't hold on any longer. Holding on without retreating is just making a pointless sacrifice. If we retreat now and the commander questions us, we will explain our situation!"
We won't put all the blame on Fang Qingdai!
Fang Qingdai glanced at the teams that had spoken up and memorized each of their faces.
Fortunately, even in the wasteland where values are completely different from those of the 21st century, there are still people with good natures. Human nature is always a complex thing, and not everyone here is evil!
"If someone treats me with respect, I will treat them with even greater respect." Fang Qingdai shouted, "All teams, retreat immediately! Squad 4015, follow me and hold back the beast!"
4015 is the team number of Fang Qingdai. Every team of superhumans has a basic number at the base.
As soon as she finished speaking, none of the team members objected. They gritted their teeth and desperately unleashed their last bit of superpower!
The little vine stopped dragging the strange beasts and instead swept across them single-handedly, its thick vine body instantly driving back a large number of strange beasts!
The cat also swung its claws wildly without holding back, and the pressure of the high-level beast surged out. In the fierce battle ahead, anyone who came would die!
Fang Qingdai's team managed to hold back the beast's advance, allowing the other teams' ability users to successfully escape the danger zone!
Fang Qingdai then ordered her teammates, "Come closer!"
The team members had been training together for a long time and had developed a tacit understanding, so they immediately came over.
With a wave of her hand, Fang Qingdai brought all the team members and Little Vine Cat into the space!
The beast, which had been extremely ferocious just moments before and wanted nothing more than to tear Fang Qingdai and the others to shreds, was instantly stunned!
Where are they?
How come everyone just disappeared while we were fighting?
Those who had been watching Fang Qingdai's team from a distance breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing this, and immediately turned to call out to everyone: "Run faster, the beasts are coming!"
Without Fang Qingdai's team to stop them, the beasts quickly broke through the defenses and pressed towards Outpost No. 4!
"Sir, the monsters are advancing!"
Zhu Lingfeng gritted his teeth in hatred: "Where are the people at the front?"
"The squad leader of Commander Li's son's unit ordered everyone to retreat, and the frontline personnel have now retreated to the entrance of the stronghold!"
Upon hearing that it was Fang Qingdai's doing again, Zhu Lingfeng was so angry that he smashed the table in front of him with a slap!
"She dares? What is she anyway!"
Zhu Lingfeng was furious. Earlier, when he led a team to search for the gang, they searched the small outpost several times but couldn't find anyone!
Immediately afterward, Zhu Lingfeng received a message that the secret passage exit had been inexplicably opened. He was quite frightened and suspected that someone had secretly escaped!
After much deliberation, Zhu Lingfeng realized that Fang Qingdai was the only one in the stronghold with the ability to deceive everyone, so he immediately led his men back to Fang Qingdai's dormitory to search for her.
As expected, after arriving empty-handed, Zhu Lingfeng's suspicions about Fang Qingdai and the others reached their peak!
He immediately expanded the search target from ** family to Fang Qingdai's entire team!
Not long after, news came from the front that Fang Qingdai's troops were fighting the enemy!
He led his men there aggressively, intending to arrest the person and torture them for a confession!
But when he arrived at the front line and saw that Fang Qingdai's team was calm and there were many superhumans watching, Zhu Lingfeng, after calming down, knew that he could not cause trouble casually!
He had calmed down, but he didn't expect Fang Qingdai to be so. She and Xiao Mao worked together to keep him, who had come to question the criminals, locked up on the front lines fighting the enemy!
After a long delay, they finally found an opportunity to retreat and prepare to carry out their plans, but Fang Qingdai once again ordered the frontline personnel to retreat without authorization!
How could an ordinary squad leader with superpowers command a combat team?
Are those superhuman squads crazy? They dare to risk being held accountable by listening to her nonsensical commands?
If Fang Qingdai were here, she would definitely tell him that he was about to lose his life, so who would care about holding him accountable?
But Fang Qingdai isn't here; she's very busy right now!
The retreat was hasty, and with alien beasts chasing after them, the exhausted superhumans had no time to think about anything else and just rushed towards the stronghold with all their might!
This resulted in a lot of sand vehicles, firearms, ammunition, weapons and other equipment being left behind on the battlefield!
There were also some strange beasts whose ears hadn't been cut off in time, as well as some strange beast corpses whose bodies were relatively well preserved!
Those are all military achievements and wealth!
Fang Qingdai rummaged her way back, collecting things so frequently that her consciousness began to feel fatigued and intermittent!
She had been fighting all day and was completely exhausted!
But with so much wealth scattered all over the ground, she really couldn't bear to part with it. If she didn't take it, all those things would be crushed to pieces when the strange beasts came over, which would be such a waste!
Fang Qingdai was experiencing both pain and pleasure, while the team of superhumans who had returned to the entrance of the stronghold felt only overwhelming anger!
The people had retreated back to the gate of the stronghold, but they were locked out and no matter how much the crowd shouted, they received no response!
Outpost No. 4 seemed to have become a deserted ghost town!
"Climb over and open the door from the inside!" Seeing the beast chasing after them from afar, one of the superhumans finally couldn't hold on any longer. After shouting, he flung out his vines and was the first to climb up the city wall!
Others followed suit, and soon many wood-type ability users were throwing out their vines!
However, they had only gone up a few meters when suddenly a dark mass of gun barrels appeared on the previously silent city wall!
"Bang!"
Without any warning, a gunshot rang out suddenly, and the first superhuman to climb the wall was shot through the forehead!
"You deserted the lines and will be treated as deserters. You are traitors to the base and do not deserve to seek refuge in the base!"
The cold words came from the city wall, and all the superhumans at the foot of the wall cracked their expressions, feeling as if they had fallen into an ice cellar!
