"howl--"
Just at this critical moment, a long and mournful howl suddenly came from afar.
Upon hearing this voice, the expressions on the faces of the black werewolf Uli and the gray werewolf leader instantly turned extremely solemn, as if they had a premonition that something ominous was about to happen.
Immediately afterwards, they responded with a long howl to the sky, while simultaneously issuing commands to the other werewolves around them, signaling everyone to quickly evacuate the area.
"Want to leave? Not so easy! At least leave a few to take with you!"
With her sharp eyes and quick hands, Si Yuniang noticed the werewolves' intention to retreat and immediately rushed forward like an arrow, fighting alongside the other brave and fearless officers to launch a fierce attack on the fleeing werewolves.
In this fierce battle, they fully demonstrated their superb martial arts skills and tenacious fighting spirit, successfully killing four or five formidable seventh-rank werewolf soldiers.
Before long, the werewolves were forced to retreat under the fierce attacks of Si Yuniang and the others, and had to abandon about forty or fifty of their companions' corpses and flee in a sorry state.
However, when these remnants finally managed to escape to a place two kilometers away from the battlefield and successfully rendezvouse with the Red Wolf army, they were surprised to find that the Red Wolf soldiers had suffered such heavy casualties.
Not only did many ordinary soldiers fall in pools of blood, but even the imposing Red Wolf leader, Hongman, was seriously injured and covered in blood.
"Red Barbarian, what happened to you? How come so many soldiers were killed or wounded? Even you are injured?" the Black Werewolf Uli asked in shock.
"Inside this human base, there is a powerful expert who can unleash the most powerful invisible sword energy in the Sirius Army. My brothers all died or were injured at his hands," Hongman said, suppressing his anger.
“Gray Tree, report to your superiors that this human base not only has a powerful expert who can use invisible sword energy, but also a hidden mentalist. I was injured because of an attack by the mentalist,” Uli said to the gray werewolf leader beside him.
"Alright, I will ask the higher-ups to send some more Rank 6 experts over, along with your Black Werewolf troops who are about to arrive, to try and wipe out these humans in one fell swoop." Gray Tree, the leader of the Gray Werewolves, nodded and then went to arrange for the messenger to be sent.
"Company commander, six brothers have been killed and more than thirty have been wounded, but most of them are lightly wounded, and only two are seriously wounded."
At that moment, inside and outside the No. 1 outpost, many new recruits closely followed the experienced veterans, methodically clearing the battlefield where the battle had just ended.
They searched every corner carefully, leaving no useful item unchecked.
After some effort, they finally collected all the weapons and equipment abandoned by the werewolves and brought them back to the camp for safekeeping.
It's worth mentioning that among the spoils seized this time were several hundred short spears!
Although these short spears are somewhat crudely made, they are made of high-quality refined iron.
If they could be transported to Tianlang Pass, they would undoubtedly become extremely important strategic resources, which could be used to manufacture more sophisticated weapons or strengthen defensive fortifications, etc.
At the same time, a detailed inventory and statistics of the losses in this battle were also obtained.
Reassuringly, our casualties were relatively smaller compared to the enemy werewolf forces.
You should know that the werewolves that swarmed in from all directions suffered more than a hundred casualties! Among them, seventy or eighty died on the spot, and another sixty or seventy were seriously injured and unable to continue fighting!
"Collect and properly store the ashes of our fallen comrades. Treat the wounded immediately and let them rest. The second platoon is now on guard duty, the first platoon is resting, and the third platoon is on the move," Si Yuniang instructed after a moment of silence.
Although she was heartbroken, she was the company commander and the officer in charge of the No. 1 stronghold. She absolutely could not come out in front of the soldiers. She could only return to her room after arranging everything, resting and silently wiping away her tears.
"Is everyone alright?" Chen Feng went over to check on the new students in each class.
"Only Zhang Kan was injured in the forearm by a werewolf's spear while saving an old soldier, but the injury wasn't serious. Everyone else was fine; everyone actively participated in the defense, and no one shirked their duties," Huang Zhiyong reported to Chen Feng.
"Let everyone learn more from the veterans, and at the same time, make the most of your time to rest and practice. If you don't have enough time, you can sleep less at night and use standing meditation instead of resting. This will also help you recover your physical and mental state," Chen Feng whispered to him.
The battle lasted for about an hour and was still very intense in the end. The number of sixth-grade experts at the first stronghold was insufficient, which was their weakness. If the werewolves had one more sixth-grade expert, the stronghold would probably be in danger.
However, the stronghold has a geographical advantage. Even if a few werewolf powerhouses rush in, a large number of seventh-rank martial artists will fight to the death to stop them, so there is no need to worry about anything in the short term.
"Company Commander, is there any news from the regimental headquarters?" Fang Zhongda came to Si Yufang and asked with a somewhat gloomy expression. He felt immense pressure.
"Not yet, but several mobile units from the regimental headquarters were sent to the outpost yesterday. I guess some of them were intercepted by the werewolf forces, while others are probably looking for other routes to get here," Si Yuniang said, shaking her head.
Because human communication devices only have a signal within five miles of the stronghold, Chen Feng couldn't contact the stronghold from a distance when he went out to scout before. He could only find out the situation first and then come back to report.
