Chapter 334: No Need for Rest?
95th Corps No. 3 Position.
Looking at the world that had changed in just one night, with a Hatchery several hundred meters high appearing in the distance, Wu Qihao muttered to himself.
"My god, these Zerg are back! Damn it, I have to notify the Corps Commander immediately! You lot, if there's any anomaly from the Zerg side, notify me at once!"
Wu Qihao shouted loudly at the Human Alliance soldiers on the position, then hurried into the communication tent within the position and yelled at the signalman inside.
"Quick! Help me contact the Legion Command Camp; a Zerg Incubation Nest has appeared within the visual range of the 3rd Position, and it has already formed!"
Hearing Wu Qihao say this, the signalman performed a series of operations, then looked at Wu Qihao with a troubled expression and spoke.
"Commander, the news from the Command Camp is that it's not just us where a Zerg Incubation Nest has appeared; they have also appeared on individual positions of other Legions. Right now, Chief Yingzhou has already gone to the 31st Corps side; the Zerg there seem to have intentions of attacking. The Military District's stance is for us to strengthen our defenses and prioritize the distribution of supplies to the positions where Incubation Nests have appeared."
Upon hearing this, Wu Qihao nodded heavily, took a deep breath, and said.
"That makes sense. The battle between the Zerg and the Beast Race should have consumed quite a lot, so launching a full-scale attack is difficult. I just wonder if the Zerg attack on the 31st Corps side might be a feint?"
"Commander, there's no need to worry about that. With our Chief's ability, as long as the attacked position can hold out against the first wave, the Chief can resolve the problem once he arrives. As for a full-scale Zerg attack, just as you said, Commander, the Zerg should be quite depleted, so the probability of that is very low."
A Squad Leader following behind Wu Qihao spoke up. Wu Qihao turned his head to look at this Squad Leader and said.
"That's all we can do. Tell the soldiers to stay alert; if there is any anomaly, report to me immediately."
"Yes!"
31st Corps 2nd Position.
Gao Fengwan looked nervously at Yingzhou, who was sitting cross-legged opposite him, wiped the sweat seeping from his forehead with his hand, and spoke slowly.
"Chief, the Zerglings around this Incubation Nest are very active, and there are already signs that they want to attack."
Listening to Gao Fengwan's words, Yingzhou lowered his head and pondered.
Originally, he had speculated that even if the Zerg declared a ceasefire with the Beast Race, they wouldn't immediately attack the Ninth Defense Zone. But looking at it now, the other side didn't seem to want to wait and was preparing to come and fight them directly?
"I know. Let's discuss this after the cavalry I sent out for reconnaissance brings back more detailed intelligence. For now, is the 2nd Position's weaponry and equipment sufficient?"
"Hmm, for now, it is sufficient, but it would be even better if we could have some more."
After pondering for a moment, Gao Fengwan spoke slowly.
"Hmm, then submit an application to the Military District; I will have Lu Zhenda approve it..."
Just as Yingzhou was speaking, a pungent odor wafted in from outside the tent. Yingzhou had already guessed who had arrived. Soon, a soldier ran into the tent, saluted Yingzhou with a somewhat complex expression, and said.
"Chief, your cavalry has returned, and he wants to see you."
"Let him in."
Soon, an Attila Sergeant walked into the tent, his body still stained with the green blood of the Zerg. Upon seeing Yingzhou, he immediately saluted, the scar on his face wrinkling with the change in his expression.
This Attila Sergeant said piously to Yingzhou.
"Emperor, our squad was attacked by the Alien before we could even get close to the Alien Nest. However, we eventually broke out from the Alien's encirclement. We couldn't discern the situation inside the Nest, but the number of Aliens outside is indeed not small, though their strength is quite poor."
Pausing, this Attila Sergeant continued.
"Also, the types of Aliens here are more numerous than those we saw before. They can fire a red, high-temperature plasma; as long as our warriors are hit, they burn rapidly and have no time to break free."
Hearing this, Yingzhou had a rough understanding. It should be the Red-Bellied Bugs he encountered in the Inner City before. Does this mean this is the place the Zerg want to attack?
"I understand. Thank you for your hard work; you may step down first."
Hearing Yingzhou say this, the Attila Sergeant saluted again and said with a somewhat excited tone.
"Serving you is my honor!"
After this Attila Sergeant left, Gao Fengwan finally quickened his breathing rhythm and looked at the unflappable Yingzhou, feeling a surge of admiration in his heart.
As expected of the Chief, he could remain so calm even when facing that kind of pungent odor.
"There's nothing else; everyone should get back to work. We must continue to observe the Zerg's movements."
"Yes!"
After Gao Fengwan and several other soldiers left the tent, Yingzhou finally let out a slow breath, his chest rising and falling continuously.
"Huff... huff... still can't get used to it?"
Yingzhou rubbed his nose while whispering to himself.
"The various positions of the Military District should be able to withstand a Zerg attack for now. However, the Zerg's motive is still unclear. Do they only intend to attack this one position? Why not build an Incubation Nest at every position? Not enough time? Or some other reason?
I'll send troops directly there to test their strength. Yes, that's decided."
Saying this, Yingzhou opened his System Panel to check his current troop situation.
