The zombie tide was getting closer and closer, and it was about to reach the frontmost defense line. The Mutant Rats had already spread out, with a portion of them rushing towards the soldiers, while the other portion was heading towards them.
With the speed of the Mutant Rats, it wouldn't take long for them to get close.
"Chief, let's stall them. Let's go!”
At this moment, a general who had been promoted by the military minister roared and charged forward with a flamethrower.
Blazing flames spewed out from the flamethrower and spread several meters away, forming a thick wall of fire in front of everyone, temporarily blocking the attack of the mutated rats.
But everyone knew that the wall of fire wouldn't last long…
"Let's go…"
"Where should I go…"
The military minister smiled bitterly, his smile filled with desolation.
Most of the helicopters had already taken off, assisting the soldiers in killing the zombies and Mutant Rats, but there were still many helicopters parked not far away. If he retreated now, he would have enough time to rush to the helicopter and escape danger.
However!
There were only so many helicopters, and only a very small number of people could escape!
What about the rest?
What about the soldiers who were still fighting the zombies and Mutant Rats?
Leaving them behind?
The military minister couldn't and didn't dare to do so.
If he died here, even if he was responsible for the failures in the war, he was still a martyr who died for China. At most, he would be labeled as someone with great ambitions but little talent. It would be completely different if he ran away in such a situation.
He would become a disgrace to the Chinese military, and he would eventually die, dragging his family down with him.
Therefore, the soldiers could escape, and even the generals who were fighting could escape. Only he, the commander, could not escape!
"They are still fighting, where can I go?”
"Let's fight…"
The military minister picked up a steel gun and stood in a row with the soldiers. They opened fire and killed the zombies!
Not far ahead were the zombies that had already advanced in front of them. Beside them were countless mutated rats. If one was not among them, it was hard to imagine what kind of despair it was. To be able to persevere and not run away, these warriors were already fighting with the awareness of sacrificing themselves here.
At this moment, the white-haired military minister, who was in a high position, stood with them and fought, once again stimulating their fighting spirit!
Countless bullets shot out from the muzzle of the gun, temporarily stopping the advancing speed of the zombie sea!
However, that was all.
Compared to the vast sea of zombies and the endless tide of mutated rats, their struggle would only delay their demise.
Ten meters.
Five meters.
Three meters.
One meter.
Finally, ten minutes later, the sea of zombies came into contact with the first line of defense!
Countless zombies swarmed over like a tidal wave. Their shriveled faces were covered in blood and savagery. These zombies let out low and hoarse roars, dragging the soldiers into the sea of zombies and turning them into meat paste!
The defense line that was simply constructed with armored vehicles and other obstacles could not withstand the impact of the zombie sea at all. It collapsed after the first attack.
And then…
Countless zombies swarmed into the defensive line!
There were zombies in front and the rat tide behind them. These soldiers had reached the most critical moment.
Almost every second, countless soldiers would be drowned by the sea of zombies, or they would be targeted by the densely packed mutated rats. Their flesh would be torn apart, and their bones would be chewed up, leaving no bones behind!
In just a few breaths, thousands of soldiers had died!
In the deepest part of the defense line, the military minister pulled the trigger in vain, numbly firing bullets one after another, his eyes filled with confusion.
He had lost.
Not only did he fail to eliminate the infected in Yunhai City, he could not even confine them to Yunhai City!
It was hard for him to imagine how much turmoil it would bring to China when these infected and mutated creatures spread!
However, this had nothing to do with him anymore.
He…did his best.
After firing the last bullet in the steel gun, the military minister threw the steel gun aside and closed his eyes to wait for death.
"Chief…Chief, they…"
The death that the military minister had been waiting for did not come. Instead, he saw a general muttering to himself in shock,"They, they stopped…"
"It stopped?"
The military minister was puzzled. He opened his eyes abruptly and the scene in front of him was unimaginable.
Just as the general had said, they stopped!
The dense sea of zombies was still in front of them, and the hoarse and unpleasant roars were still coming from time to time, but these zombies stopped attacking!
Even though bullets hit their bodies, they still stood where they were.
As for the countless Mutant Rats, they had all returned to the ground!
"Why did they stop…"
Everyone was puzzled.
The zombies and the Mutant Rats had attacked from both sides, causing the defensive line to crumble. Out of the 100,000 soldiers stationed here, only a few thousand were still standing!
Logically speaking, they would have been wiped out in one or two minutes. However, at this moment, the attack of the zombie sea and the mutated rats stopped.
"Stop!"
"Stop firing!"
The military minister seemed to have thought of something and hurriedly gave the order.
The thousands of soldiers who were still standing heard the military minister's order. Although they were confused, they still stopped attacking.
As expected.
After the soldiers stopped shooting, the zombie horde calmed down.
Then, the dense sea of zombies suddenly parted, leaving a path in the middle.
Then, a middle-aged man with a common face slowly walked out of the sea of zombies.
"Zhang Chengtai!"
A general exclaimed.
The middle-aged man who walked out of the sea of zombies ignored the general's exclamation. He walked out of the sea of zombies slowly until he was not far from the military minister and the others. Then, he said,"Let me introduce myself, I'm Chen Mo, the Zombie King.”
