The battle at the rear ended very quickly. Under the ambush of superior firepower, the thousands of Kraya were unable to form an overwhelming force. Although there were casualties on the front lines, it was still a great victory. The key to this great victory was Yang Ke-er. Yang Ke-er had the authority to command. Even if she didn't have any tactical accomplishments or experience in commanding an army, she was still the most outstanding general based on the fact that she was the fastest to discover the weaknesses of the Seafolk and was 100% certain that they wouldn't be defeated. It wasn't an exaggeration to say that the key to victory for both sides, other than the advantage in numbers and logistics, was also determined by who made fewer mistakes. No one could take one step and see ten steps ahead. No one would know what kind of unexpected consequences today's decision would bring tomorrow. However, Yang Ke-er didn't need to care about this. She only needed to make decisions based on her intuition.
When Zhang Xiaoqiang was carried to the rear by Ma Fei, he didn't see any traces of the Blood Phoenix. Instead, he saw Kraya corpses all over the ground. These Kraya corpses were scattered all over the ground, and most of them weren't whole. Excluding those corpses that had been blasted into smithereens, he estimated that there were at least 4,000 Kraya corpses here. The ratio of high level Seafolk to low level Seafolk was 10: 1. In other words, more than 400 high level Kraya were annihilated here at the same time.
Excluding the mutated beasts, just the Seafolk alone numbered in the hundreds of thousands. Out of the hundreds of thousands of Seafolk, there were only a few hundred Kraya. That was to say, including the Kraya that had been killed by the zombies at the front lines, there were at least 20 Kraya of the Seafolk here. Not to mention the Four-Armed Snake Women and the even smaller number of Six-Armed Snake Women. Without a doubt, this was a great victory.
Some of the Kraya that had fainted from the explosions were placed together. Their limbs and mouths were tightly bound. The soldiers who tied them up were very evil. They had the rope skills from Japanese action movies. There were a lot of captured Seafolk alive, close to 300 of them. Almost half of them had lost an arm or a leg. Zhang Xiaoqiang's limp appearance caused Yang Ke-er to be terrified. She personally carried Zhang Xiaoqiang in her arms and didn't give him to anyone. Zhang Xiaoqiang endured the strange feeling in his heart and reported the situation to Zhang Xiaoqiang.
"When the Seafolk attacked, the first line of defense only had three companies of 500 soldiers. They were arranged in a 20 kilometer line of defense. On average, a squad had to defend a 400 meter line of defense. They were only used as an early warning force. Their losses were the greatest. After retreating, including the injured, they only had 230 people left. The second line had two regiments with a total of 4000 people. After retreating to the third line of defense, there were still 3200 people left. In the ambush, a total of 8000 people were sent out, and there were 750 casualties. In total, there were about 2000 casualties.
Most of them were Australian soldiers. We killed about 4000 Kraya and captured more than 300 people. We used up three bases of ammunition. Half of the heavy artillery ammunition was used up. In addition, two-thirds of the landmines were used up, and eighty percent of the medical supplies were used up. The entire garrison only had two bases of ammunition left. In addition, the damage to the guns was also very serious.
One-third of the rifles fired more than 1000 bullets on average, and the barrels were damaged … "Xue Feng stared at Xiangyu, who seemed to be sleeping. From time to time, he would grab her stiff arms and try to pull her up. He couldn't believe that she was dead. He couldn't believe that she could no longer smile at him. The sadness in his eyes was real. Xiangyu was the closest person to him so far. The relationship between the two of them was not that of a housekeeper and a master, but that of a family. They didn't have romantic feelings, but they were more stable than romantic feelings. Xue Feng was a newborn intelligent creature. Although he was born from a mother's body, he already had his own thoughts. When he lived with human beings, Xiangyu taught him a lot of things. In other words, Xiangyu played the role of a mother and sister.
Xiangyu's death made him sad like an ordinary person losing a loved one. This feeling of having his heart pierced by a sharp knife spread in his heart again and again. At this moment, Xue Feng didn't want to pay attention to anyone. He just stared at Xiangyu, feeling regret and self-blame. He regretted pretending to be a big wolf and taking Xiangyu to the battlefield. He regretted looking down on the Sea Race and watching Xiangyu's death without being able to do anything. He hated himself even more for being so weak that he couldn't defeat any six-armed snake woman.
The more he thought about it, the more annoyed Xue Feng became. In the end, he couldn't help but let out a heart-wrenching roar. He knelt on the ground, banged his head on the ground, and kept howling. Even though he was in a human body, he couldn't really control himself like a human. He couldn't shed tears of sadness, so he could only howl to vent the pain in his heart. The ground shook again and again under the dull thuds, and a bowl-sized pit appeared. The wound on Xue Feng's forehead opened up, but not a single drop of blood flowed out. Blood was Xue Feng's body, and unless he was truly destroyed, it was impossible for him to shed blood. But this made Xue Feng feel even worse. He desperately wanted to shed something to vent his depression. This was a vague imprint in the depths of his body's memory. A man shouldn't shed tears easily, but he couldn't shed tears or bleed until he was truly sad. The grief and indignation in his heart were like a suppressed volcano, expanding under the pressure to the point that he was about to go crazy.
Zhang Xiaoqiang leaned weakly on Zhuo Mingyue's delicate body and looked at the extremely sad Xue Feng. The people standing at the door were all silent. Yang Ke-er's eyes were filled with tears, while Zhuo Mingyue was staring at Xiangyu's body in a daze. She was as sad as Xue Feng, but only Zhang Xiaoqiang could see her tears. Meow and Suo Fei stood behind them, not knowing what was going on. For Meow, she had seen more dead people than she had seen when she was young. In the colony, Zhang Xiaoqiang had raised her as a boy. In order to train her mind, he would bring her along whenever he killed someone. She had seen the scene of thousands of people being executed by the lake and the corpses littering the fields. She had long since stopped caring about life and death. Now that her mother had treated Doudou Candy as her own daughter, Meow had lost her mother. Therefore, her only family now was Zhang Xiaoqiang. As long as Zhang Xiaoqiang was fine, even if everyone in the world died, it would have nothing to do with her.
"Xue Feng … I will find you a babysitter …" Zhang Xiaoqiang did not know how to comfort Xue Feng. If it was someone else, he would have comforted them and calmed them down, but Xue Feng could not. The reason why the eastern defense line did not break through was because Xue Feng had risked her life to block dozens of Lamia. Otherwise, just one Lamia with six arms would have been able to break through the defense line, and the corpses would have been destroyed. That was why Xue Feng had to get rid of her sadness and take over the command of millions of zombies to prevent the Sea Race from coming ashore again. Although Zhang Xiaoqiang did not believe that the Sea Race would send so many Lamia and Lamia again.
"No, I only want Xiang Yu 'er. Zhang Xiaoqiang, I beg you, as long as Xiang Yu' er can come back to life, I will do anything you want, even if you kill me …" Xue Feng, who was always afraid of death, saw Xiang Yu 'er as more important than her own life, which shocked Zhang Xiaoqiang. Zhuo Mingyue spoke with a hoarse and tired voice.
"She won't be able to come back. This is all because of you. It was because of your blind arrogance that Xiang Yu 'er died … She used to be my maid, but you didn't take good care of her …" Zhuo Mingyue's words made Xue Feng raise her fist and slam it on the ground. She screamed, "Then I'll give her back her life …"
"Stop …" Zhang Xiaoqiang saw that something was wrong. Xue Feng wanted to die, so he yelled. He didn't know if he was telling Xue Feng to stop or Zhuo Mingyue to stop. Zhuo Mingyue waved her sleeves and an invisible force wrapped around Xue Feng and pulled her in front of her. She yelled, "If you die, then she won't come back to life. Who will avenge her …"
In the end, Xiang Yu 'er was killed by the Sea Race. Zhuo Mingyue didn't really want Xue Feng to die. She knew how difficult it was to deal with a Snake Woman. If it wasn't for the S4 and Xue Feng working together, it would have taken a lot of effort to kill a Four Armed Snake Woman. Even someone as arrogant as Zhuo Mingyue was afraid of the Sea Race. Although she wanted to kill Xue Feng to accompany Xiang Yu, she still said those words.
"Xue Feng, Xiang Yu 'er was so close to you, she wouldn't want to see you like this. You should just stand up, live, and avenge her …" Zhang Xiaoqiang felt that what he said was shameless. He didn't care about the relationship between Xue Feng and Xiang Yu, he didn't even remember what Xiang Yu looked like. Now, he thought that Xiang Yu' er was trying to get Xue Feng to defend the line of defense in the name of revenge.
Xue Feng slowly got up from the ground and stood in front of Zhang Xiaoqiang. She looked down at Zhang Xiaoqiang and said word by word. Her tone was firm and unquestionable. This was the first time she had spoken to Zhang Xiaoqiang like this, which put Zhang Xiaoqiang in a difficult position. What Xue Feng was talking about was the cross-shaped black crystal that Xue Feng had left behind. He didn't know if giving it to Xue Feng would bring Xue Feng back to life. After all, Xue Feng was ten times stronger than Xue Feng.
"Give it to him. If there is a problem, I will kill him myself …" Zhuo Mingyue turned to look at Zhang Xiaoqiang and said. Xue Feng didn't look happy because of Zhuo Mingyue's plea. She just stood in front of Zhang Xiaoqiang and stared at Xiang Yu 'er's body. Zhang Xiaoqiang hesitated for a while, then nodded and said, "That thing is on the frigate. I will give it to you when I deliver it to you. I hope that you will focus on killing the Sea Race, and don't go down the same path as Xiang Yu' er. Xiang Yu is also a human, she wouldn't want you to kill humans again …"
Zhang Xiaoqiang took a risk in making this decision, but compared to China, there weren't that many zombies in Australia. They had enough soldiers and weapons to kill millions of zombies. Zhang Xiaoqiang was more experienced in fighting zombies than fighting the Sea Race. Plus, there were more than a hundred tons of Source Erosion Bombs in the warehouse in Australia. Even if Xue Feng was ten times stronger, she would still be able to deal with it.
"I also want the bodies of the high-level Sea Race. I have a feeling that if the type 4 zombies eat them, they will become level 5 zombies. Then, level 5 zombies will be able to deal with four-armed creatures. Give me 30,000 more Sea Race blood, I want to increase the number of type 4 zombies …"
Xue Feng saw Zhang Xiaoqiang's expression change. She knew what Zhang Xiaoqiang was worried about. She hesitated for a while and added, "When the time comes, I will take care of the eastern defense line. I won't let a single Sea Race come ashore …"
