Devouring the Star: Age of Cataclysm

Chapter 19 Late night meeting!

Late at midnight, at the South Bank Fortress.

The military command center held an emergency meeting.

"The Sharp Blade Squad has lost contact for an hour. All 23 warriors in the entire team have lost contact. We are currently in the car trying to restore contact with them."

In the meeting room, an old man in charge of wilderness reconnaissance said, "The Blade Squad has six mid-level warriors, four junior warriors, and thirteen senior warriors. Let's talk about what to do!"

"Keep in touch. Immediately dispatch 40 armed helicopters fully loaded with armor-piercing shells to search outward from the Blade Squad's mission location.
At the same time, mobilize communication satellites to carefully scout that area and find the Blade Squad, regardless of life or death."

A voice as deep and powerful as metal and stone came from the center of the conference room.

The person who spoke was Xu Yong from Shancheng City.

The middle-aged leader had thick eyebrows like swords, and his military uniform was straight without the slightest wrinkle. He looked straight ahead, exuding an iron-blooded aura from head to toe.

He just sat there, giving people a feeling of being as majestic as a mountain.

Deputy Chief of Staff of Daxia’s nine secret forces.

In addition, he is the eighth intermediate war god in Daxia today, and is ranked in the top 100 in the war god list with peak combat power.

"I agree!"

"agree!"

"I agree. The Blade Squad is the elite of the Iron Dragon Army. We must not give up easily."

As soon as Xu Yongzhan's myth came out, everyone in the meeting agreed unanimously.

The reason they have been able to hold out against countless beast attacks over the past year is their unity and spirit of perseverance.

Without such belief, these refuge fortresses and cities would not exist today.

"Commander Xu, do we need to mobilize rockets to carry out a blanket bombing on that area?" asked a combat staff officer.

"no!"

Xu Yong directly denied it, "No one should act rashly before finding out the news about the Blade Squad."

"If there are beasts gathering there, we can take the initiative..."

"No chance of that happening! I told you not to do anything!!"

Everyone: "..."

There was silence in the meeting room.

Everyone looked at this powerful mid-level war god and knew his extremely domineering personality.

Not to mention that the Sharp Blade Squad is a group of elite warriors brought up by Xu Yong himself.

If any other group of warriors were in a situation where their lives and deaths were unknown, he would not have rashly bombed.

"Do we need to mobilize reconnaissance planes and bombers for reconnaissance?"

"No need, just call my phone over and we'll set off in an hour!" Xu Yong said coldly.

He looked at the combat screen in front of him and prepared for the worst.

"No, there are suspected activities of lord-level monsters in that area. You can't put yourself in danger." A staff officer spoke out to stop him.

Xu Yong frowned slightly and said, "Am I the highest commander of Shancheng City, or are you?"

"..."

Seeing the atmosphere fall into silence again, Xu Yong said: "That Silver Moon Giant Wolf is only a beginner at the Intermediate Lord level, and its strength is far inferior to mine.

Just be careful with the herds around you and I'll have no problems."

"Besides, that area is only a few hundred kilometers away from Shelter 057. With my speed, I can get there quickly."

"Commander Xu, I'll go with you then."

A powerful and valiant female voice rang out in the conference room.

Everyone looked up at the same time. It turned out that it was the female war god on Xu Yong’s left who spoke.

Mu Bingyao, one of the seventeen primary war gods of Daxia.

She was woken up late at night and only had time to put on a windbreaker, with a thin, tight-fitting white V-neck T-shirt underneath, which made her already plump figure look even more majestic.

She glanced at everyone present, and her plump, perky, rosy lips slightly opened: "With Chief Xu and I going to investigate together, what else do you have to worry about?"

Seeing that the female warrior had spoken, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. "No, Bingyao, you have to stay and command the situation at any time!" Xu Yong shook his head and rejected Mu Bingyao's suggestion.

"I will go to the wilderness alone, there will be no danger. Besides, there are several main regiments of our nine secret forces there. If the attack fails, we can retreat and defend."

"Okay, then I won't force it!"

Mu Bingyao raised a smile, her voice was crisp but not delicate.

It has a pleasant sound with a hint of softness, sounds full and powerful, with clear pronunciation, giving people a full-bodied feeling.

"Since everyone has no objection, let me make a few points."

"First, before I leave, all shelters and fortresses in Mountain City are put on alert."

The middle-aged man stood up and spoke word by word.

"Commander Xu, I want all the reconnaissance troops under my Dark Eagle to be dispatched." A middle-aged officer said. As the deputy commander of the Dark Eagle Army, he naturally had this responsibility.

"No, your reconnaissance team will continue to monitor the activities of the beasts within a 300-kilometer radius around Shancheng City and provide real-time information to the warriors."

Xu Yong looked at the deputy commander and said earnestly: "Your information is crucial, and you must not neglect it."

"I understand!" The deputy commander nodded.

Seeing that no one said anything, Xu Yong began to give orders.

"The Sharp Blade Squad is the pioneer of our military zone. They are followed by the War Dragon Regiment of the Iron Dragon Army, the Owl Wolf Regiment of the Blood Wolf Army, and the six armored regiments of the Dark Eagle Army.

These eight reinforced regiments are the key to whether we can build a defense line deep in the wilderness and successfully relieve the pressure on Shancheng and the surrounding fortresses. We must not neglect them. "

"Immediately contact all warriors from the five squads of Long Dao, White Leaf, Cang Lang, Dragon Claw, and Dragon Breath who entered the wilderness at the same time as the Sharp Blade Squad. Temporarily abandon all reconnaissance and search missions, retreat and join forces with the follow-up troops, build a defense line on the spot, and wait for follow-up orders!"

"Finally, we must build steel structure roadblocks and high-voltage power grids in front of the position. Special steel barricades and trenches must also be arranged one by one."

"Rocket Force, Army Aviation Corps, logistics, medical services... all in place, ready for a major war at any time..."

"..."

The hall was silent except for the sound of Xu Yong talking.

All that was left was the rustling sound of the pen.

As Xu Yong was speaking, the intelligence officer sitting behind him was writing rapidly on paper.

The rest of the people were listening attentively.

Because every order involves the safety of Shancheng City.

There is no room for carelessness.

"That's all for now."

"Yes!" The staff officer immediately took the order and retreated.

There was a dull feeling in the hall.

Everyone looked at Xu Yong without saying a word.

"Having talked about the Blade Squad, let's talk about some other important matters!"

Swish!
Hearing this, all the participants looked up and stared at Xu Yong.

"Tongwei, you speak first."

Under Xu Yong's gaze, Director Qi of the Shancheng Intelligence Department stood up.

He held a black folder in his hand, which contained the latest information.

"According to the news, traces of lord monsters were found in the mountains at the border between Shancheng City and Hubei Province. Not only this place, but also in the border areas with Sichuan, Yunnan, and Guizhou provinces, there are traces of lord-level monsters appearing..."

"The deputy leader of the Dark Night Mercenary Group, Dragon King, and the military advisor Chen Xuan are leading 106 warriors to clear monsters in the wilderness area. They will arrive at the South Bank Fortress soon..."

"Also, the chief of the capital garrison, the high-level god of war Ma Qingfeng, is communicating with the eight major military regions of Daxia, preparing to gather troops for the second counterattack in the Magic City. It seems that this is in preparation for the establishment of the base city later..."

"..."
