The first day of fighting ended in the early morning, which surprised many people in the northern region who stayed up late to listen to the radio.
University Town Base, in Xie Jinshan's office.
Several large ashtrays in the room were full. In the smoky office, the eyes of the twelve members of the Alliance Parliament were red.
Little Dili's voice was coming from the radio on the desk.
"The zombies are retreating! Those zombies that were about to attack the Light Chaser City left as if the tide was ebbing!"
"There were countless corpses left under the city, as well as three high piles of corpses."
"They fought hard for a day without achieving any results. Under the attack of our light-seeking army, they had to choose to retreat. This is a great victory! Wuwu..."
"I'm so excited. Well, I'm sorry."
"This ends today's broadcast. I also need to take a rest. Good night, everyone."
Little Dili's voice was a little hoarse, but she could hear that she was very excited.
When the broadcast ended, Xie Jinshan's office was unusually quiet.
The cigarette butt in Li Wang's hand burned until it reached his hand, and he stood up suddenly.
"This is fake, this must be fake. How can things like zombies know how to retreat? This must be fake news created by Zhuguang City to deceive us. Who would believe this kind of nonsense? Do you believe it?"
Others in the office remained silent for a long time.
Finally, Xie Jinshan spoke: "Sit down."
"Speaker, do you believe it?"
"It's okay if you don't believe it. The Light Chasing Army has no reason to fabricate such a lie that will be exposed soon. Moreover, in Xiao Dili's last broadcast, the sound of gunfire and gunfire stopped. This should be true."
"But...but this is unscientific."
"There is nothing unscientific. Through today's live broadcast of the battle, we can clearly feel that the leader of the zombies has the same wisdom as humans. Since it has the same thinking as humans, it cannot be regarded as a pure zombie and cannot do anything.
It's strange, but I'm also surprised that Tang Zheng was able to repel the zombies, which is really incredible."
"Then what should we do now? The zombies have been driven back, doesn't Tang Zheng win?"
Xie Jinshan sneered: "Win? That's still far from it. The zombies only lost a small part of their troops, and we can probably hear that the light-chasing army almost used all their strength to fight, and then
After the battle, they were still in trouble."
After hearing Xie Jinshan's analysis, several people in the room let out a sigh of relief.
It doesn't seem like a bad thing.
If the war of attrition continues, Tang Zheng will definitely not be able to hold on, and will eventually be defeated.
It would be better if he could persist for a day or two and then consume some of the zombies, then it would be perfect.
At that time, the Alliance can naturally accept the City of Chasing Light, and they also really want to see what Tang Zheng's inner city has in store.
Almost 250,000 zombies were wiped out in one day. How did Tang Zheng persist in this kind of ammunition consumption?
Now almost all of them believe that taking over Light Chaser City will be an opportunity for the alliance to take off.
The Alliance did not speak out on this matter, but the rest of the bases were jubilant.
The light-chasing army fought against millions of zombies for more than ten hours, and the battle lasted from afternoon to dawn. This feat was so inspiring.
Many bases sent congratulatory messages to the Light Chasing Army.
Yong Linling's base, Jonathan's base.
The base over there in Fengcheng, the base over there in the grassland.
Even bases relatively close to Lianghe and Mobei sent congratulatory messages to celebrate this great victory.
In their view, if they can defeat the zombies once, they can defeat them the second time. After all, the first day is the most difficult.
However, most of these congratulatory messages did not reach Tang Zheng's ears. They were all received by correspondent Wu Di.
At this moment, Tang Zheng was lying directly on the city wall, soundly asleep.
Tang Zheng was exhausted both physically and mentally this day. Finally, when he had a chance to rest, he almost lay down on the spot.
Beside him, the guard platoon leader Ning Yuwei got a parasol and a blanket and covered the general.
Other soldiers in the guard platoon, holding steel guns, guarded the general as if guarding a corpse.
At dawn, some people who couldn't sleep opened their windows and saw this scene.
There is a residential building near the courtyard that Tang Zheng built for his father and sister.
The window on the top floor of the residential building opened, and three little heads stuck out.
From this location, you can barely see the city wall.
These are Tang Ni's three best friends who were rescued by Tang Zheng from Fengcheng Dance Academy.
The three little girls were kneeling on the long sofa with their hands on their chins, their elbows resting on the window sill.
On the city wall, Tang Zheng was sleeping soundly, with his soldiers guarding him.
They looked in the direction of the city wall, fascinated.
After a long time, a girl spoke first.
"Have you ever thought that Nini's brother looks very handsome when sleeping?"
"Yes, yes, he is very handsome, and the way he looks like sleeping on the floor is very heroic."
"I also think it's just a pity that heroes since ancient times have always been lonely."
"Lonely and lonely, have you heard about that too?"
"Well, I've heard about it too. There are a lot of rumors in the city now, saying that brother Tang Zheng is obsessed with saving the world and is no longer interested in girls."
"It's such a pity. Why does such a good man have to bear so many things that he shouldn't have to bear?"
"Oh my, from your tone, you seem to have some thoughts about Brother Tang Zheng?"
"Huh! If you have it, don't you have it? Don't deny it, children who lie will have longer noses."
One girl bravely admitted, and the other two sighed.
"I already had a crush on Brother Tang Zheng when he rescued us. That's why I say it's a pity now. We were destined to be together but not destined to be together."
"Hey, tell me, let's give Brother Tang Zheng a gift. People like him often need to be slowly influenced by warmth to let him know that there are many beautiful things in the world."
"That's a good idea. What should we give him?"
"Otherwise, let's knit a scarf for him."
"Okay, okay. Only by doing handicrafts can I make him feel your heart. That's it. But when is the right time to give it to me?"
"Just do it first. Sooner or later there will be a chance to send it out."
Several little girls were whispering at the window, occasionally blushing and heartbeating, full of warmth.
Tang Zheng didn't know that he was labeled, so he slept really comfortably.
In the breeze on the city wall, he slept from early morning until ten o'clock in the morning.
In the end, if it hadn't been for the aroma of cooking by the cooking troops below, he wouldn't have woken up so easily.
Feeling his stomach growling, Tang Zheng woke up from his sleep and opened his eyes to find that it seemed to be almost noon.
"Where are the zombies? Have they come?"
"There is no general yet. There are too many corpses here. The zombies are busy devouring their own kind. It looks like they can finish them all in the afternoon, so we didn't call you."
Tang Zheng stood up in a hurry: "Has the pile of zombie corpses been burned?"
"It's about to begin."
"Start burning it immediately. Try to burn it as low as possible without leaving too high a passage for the zombies."
"yes."
The Light-Chasing City soldiers, who had been prepared long ago, immediately began to burn the corpses.
Barrels of gasoline were poured from the city wall, and flamethrowers were fired, and the pile of corpses began to burn violently.
But this process is very long, and the pile of corpses is too thick. In yesterday's battle, more than 200,000 zombies died, and the corpses have piled up into a mountain. It may take two or three days to burn them all.
After Tang Zheng got up, he picked up the binoculars to see what was going on with the zombies.
About one kilometer away from the city wall, countless zombies were devouring them without restraint.
The position outside the south gate was too big, with zombies all over the mountains and fields, and the distance was far away. It was too difficult to kill, so the Light Chasing Army ignored it. After all, the soldiers were also very tired, and everyone needed time to rest and recover.
Now is a rare time of tacit understanding. On the one hand, we need to devour evolution, and on the other hand, we need to rest and adjust. No one takes the initiative to provoke a fight.
From time to time, zombies evolve during the devouring process and become mutant zombies.
It seems that it will take some time to devour it, and even if the zombies complete the engulfment, it will still take time to organize an attack. Light Chaser City is still safe for the time being.
Tang Zheng silently calculated that if the zombies were fast, they would not be able to attack until the evening at the earliest, or even late at night.
Tang Zheng analyzed that today's Corpse King may have to repeat yesterday's battle plan and fight a night battle.
After all, night is still more beneficial to zombies. On this five-kilometer front, just one night's worth of flares is a big drain.
No matter how good the flares are, they are not as good as sunlight.
Since fighting is possible at night, it is safe during the day.
Tang Zheng immediately came down from the city wall and started eating.
At this time, Tang Zheng did not ask Xu Jingqiu to open a small stove for him. Instead, he followed the soldiers and wolfed down a meal to fill his stomach.
After eating, Tang Zheng first checked his fund consumption.
In yesterday's battle, Tang Zheng's capital consumption was as high as 550,000!
In addition, during his previous wave of explosions, the funds in hand were close to 4 million, which has dropped to 2.8 million.
"If the intensity of the battle is like this, my funds will be almost exhausted after five more days of fighting."
"The battle must not drag on for so long. We must find a way to end it as soon as possible."
Tang Zheng returned to his residence in the inner city and came to the edge of the pool, wanting to tease Tangtang.
Tangtang, who used to show up immediately when she sensed Tang Zheng's return, today just said hello lazily.
A huge tentacle waved on the surface of the water, and then sank to the bottom.
The enormity of this tentacle was somewhat beyond Tang Zheng's impression.
The part just above the water looks like a giant anaconda.
"This Tangtang is much bigger. Although I haven't seen the whole thing, I can still feel its huge size. Did this guy eat too much last night?"
Seeing that Tangtang couldn't come out, Tang Zheng sat by the pool, silently thinking about the next battle plan.
Just as he was thinking, the system prompt sounded suddenly.
[General, please note that a supply box has been refreshed thirty kilometers north of you. 】
