Just as they were feeling smug, someone suddenly came to report: "Something's wrong, someone's attacking the back door."
"There is an attack on the west side."
"There is an attack on the east side."
"Damn it." Gu Hai, the commander of the ambulance, cursed.
"Report to Chairman Zhang. Also, Wang Chuan, you take a team to the west side. Jiang Shuai, you take a team to the east side. Wu Bing, you take your men to the rear."
Each of them led a group of about 30 people and quickly left.
General Sun and the others, seeing the commotion, knew that Ye Yunyi had led the attack and couldn't help but admire her.
For a moment, he thought Ye Yunyi was cowardly and had left with her people, but he didn't expect her to launch a sneak attack. Thinking that they couldn't just wait idly, they also prepared to launch an attack.
The local people, who had endured more than two years of living hell, were moved to tears when they saw General Sun and his men. Some of the people who had participated in the construction of the city wall approached them and told them where there were any loopholes that could be attacked.
Thus, under attack from multiple sides, even the second layer of defense of the ambulance, which it considered very strong, was breached.
When Ye Yunyi and General Sun met up in the second ring, they had already retreated to the core area.
On the ground in the second circle, there were still many corpses of mutated rats lying around. The main force of rats had disappeared without a trace because of the chaos.
They found a safe place in the second circle to use as their office. The second circle was inhabited by some people who were previously known as white-collar workers. They had stable jobs and maintained a basic decent life, at least enough to make ends meet.
They were more afraid of death and stayed in their rooms. General Sun's men took full control of the second ring, but to prevent anyone from infiltrating and causing sabotage, they immediately recruited some people from the outer perimeter and put them in charge of guarding it.
Zhao Yong and General Sun, who had been inside the core area, then gave everyone a briefing on the situation within the core area.
They decided that although it was more dangerous inside, everyone was in high spirits. The people inside had suffered two defeats and were feeling frustrated. They needed to act quickly and seize this opportunity to take the victory in one fell swoop.
They then briefly outlined their tactics. General Sun was a professional in tactics, and Zhao Yong and Ye Yunyi added some supplementary information.
Then they launched the third round of attacks.
This time, they selected elites, some to be responsible for a forceful assault, others to be responsible for deciphering the mechanisms, while Minister Tang led a team to take over their biochemical research laboratory.
Ye Yun, relying on his keen hearing and vision, took on the overall command together with General Sun.
Zhao Yong, Wang Zixiang, Xiao Deng, Wang Weifeng, and Xiao Qin worked together seamlessly. Liu Er led his troops back into battle, while General Sun's troops were upright and disciplined.
Several vanguard teams concentrated their firepower on the weak points in Ye Yunyi's defenses and quickly broke through one line of defense. The waiting teams then rushed in to reinforce the defenses. Although the people inside were able to bring in personnel and weapons to defend the area, they were ultimately no match for the concentrated firepower from the outside. Soon, they broke into the core area.
The people inside quickly fled, and those so-called upper-class people who were usually high and mighty all gathered and ran towards Zhang Sheng's villa.
Unfortunately, at this moment, Zhang Sheng had no time to care about them. No matter how much they knocked on the door, begged, or threatened, it was all in vain.
After a breach was made in the core area, Zhang Sheng only instructed everyone to protect the villa where he was located.
It's as if everything else can be abandoned.
The core area was in complete chaos. Gu Hai was still putting up a stubborn resistance, but no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't stabilize the chaotic situation on his own.
"What? Are you still going to resist to the end?" General Sun said to Gu Hai. That oppressive aura made Gu Hai's heart tremble.
Gu Hai looked at the soldiers' corpses at the breach. Some died on the spot, and some were killed after turning into zombies. But his men were dwindling and there was no hope of victory. He took the lead in throwing away his weapons and shouted, "Everyone stop and put down your weapons!"
Those who couldn't get into Zhang Sheng's villa were already crying and begging that they were law-abiding citizens and hadn't committed any crimes.
But no one paid them any attention. They headed towards Zhang Sheng's villa, while Minister Tang led his men to the laboratory building.
They thought everything was going smoothly, but they underestimated Zhang Sheng.
In front of Zhang Sheng's villa, they were subjected to machine gun fire. The soldiers who were standing at the villa entrance were riddled with bullets. If Ye Yunyi hadn't sensed it in advance and warned everyone, they probably would have lost their lives.
The soldiers hit by the gunfire were incredulous; they had been mercilessly shot dead by the very leader they were protecting. A few quick-reacting soldiers roared and dodged to the side, avoiding the machine gun fire, crying out, "Leader, I know where the machine gun is! I'll lead you in and avenge my brothers!"
Zhang Sheng, inside the house, paid no attention to this. He pressed a few more switches, and a rustling sound came out. It turned out that a row of weapons was slowly rising in the flower beds around the villa.
They were caught in the middle, unable to go in or out, and were about to be attacked and killed.
The soldier who had previously avoided the traps shouted, "Come here!"
General Sun led his men over, and saw the soldier quickly lead them to a wall, push it with his hand, and a button appeared. He pressed the button, and a hole appeared that could only be entered by crouching down.
"Let's go." No one bothered to ask how he knew about this place or why there was a cave here, so they followed him inside.
Inside was a narrow, dark corridor. Everyone groped their way along the wall for a few minutes until they finally saw light.
"Be careful, there are many traps here." The soldier pointed to several places as he spoke.
Ye Yunyi looked in the direction the soldier pointed and indeed saw the mechanism. Then she discovered several other hidden mechanisms on her own.
Ye Yunyi didn't know how to solve it, so she described it to Wang Zhi, who was in charge of cracking the mechanism. Wang Zhi knew what to do and said, "These few can be destroyed with guns, but these others need to be taken to the control room. As for the infrared lights here, we can only turn them off by going to the other side first."
Ye Yunyi felt like she was watching an American blockbuster. She never expected that in such a time of scarcity, Zhang Sheng would use so much energy to ensure his own safety. He truly deserved to die.
Fortunately, although these mechanisms are dangerous, they can be overcome.
Ye Yunyi joined the vanguard team with them this time, working together to solve the puzzles. Although everyone suffered some minor injuries, none of them were fatal.
After the mechanism was destroyed, the rest of the team caught up.
Seeing this on the monitor, Zhang Sheng knew defeat was inevitable. He had already controlled all the mechanisms downstairs, but they hadn't held out; the mechanisms upstairs certainly wouldn't be able to stop them either.
So he decisively abandoned the building and fled.
