The legion commander's tone left no room for argument, and Wang Yuan finally nodded, promising not to act impulsively again.

The legion commander was in agony. He looked up at the dark sky and then at the projected map on the table.

The legion commander slammed his fist on the table, stood up agitated, and uttered a single word. "Attack!"

Chief of Staff: "But we can't win. Our army will be wiped out soon. Those beasts can fly. We have no chance."

Even if we had a few more Wargod, it wouldn't matter. Those beasts can fly, and they're incredibly fast. We simply can't carry out a decapitation strike. It's only the laser cannons that make them wary; otherwise, even the Six Great Base Cities wouldn't be safe."

Legion Commander: "All I know is that if this continues, my soldiers will be worn down bit by bit by these beasts, and then even if we want to fight to the death, we won't have any strength left."

Moreover, I suspect that, just like at Millstone Mountain before, these beasts are deliberately cutting off our flesh, sending us to our deaths one by one. When all our Military are dead, that will be the time for them to come out in full force!

These are all their tactics; these monsters are truly becoming more and more monstrous.

The chief of staff was deeply shocked upon hearing what our corps commander said, "No, that can't be, can it?"

The chief of staff suddenly felt thirsty and licked his lips. "Monsters shouldn't have this kind of intelligence, right? The previous cases were probably just isolated incidents. Their evolution is already this incredible; if they also possess this kind of intelligence, then what hope do we humans have?"

The legion commander did not answer him, because he himself did not want to believe it, but it was very likely to be true, and the war between humans and monsters in the future would be even more difficult.

The chief of staff realized at that moment that fighting was no longer an option.

How should we fight?

Legion Commander: "Order the rear tail-cutting troops to launch an attack, fighting and retreating towards Millstone Mountain. There are still many monster corpses there; hopefully, those beasts in the sky can have a good meal."

Moreover, there are many monsters in Millstone Mountain, including land monsters and birds that might not tolerate flying in the sky.

"At that time, you should take this opportunity to march rapidly and safely bring the people back to the Jiangnan Base City."

Chief of Staff: "You? Old Chang, could it be you?"

Legion Commander: "Enough. One of us has to stay behind. Your mission is more important than mine; the lives of millions are in your hands."

Silence fell once more.

Lin Yaodong: "Is there anything I can do to help? Perhaps we could try killing the Lord-level Monster among them, and that would dissipate the horde, right?"

One of the staff officers answered Lin Yaodong's question, "Theoretically, that's true, but we can't do it. Even you, the Wargod of Donglin, probably couldn't face 300,000 flying monsters, right?"

Lord-level Monster are extremely cunning. They know that we humans have weapons to kill them, so they don't easily expose themselves but hide among the beasts. Our Military had previously devised a plan to hunt down these monsters, gathering the forces of four legions plus three War God Level powerhouses, but in the end we still failed.

The four legions were almost completely wiped out, and of the three Wargod, one was killed, one was wounded, and one escaped.

After that, whenever there were more than 100,000 flying monsters, they could only wait for them to eat and drink their fill before leaving on their own.

Currently, only the Six Great Base Cities have laser cannons to deter them, which is why our country needs to concentrate its population in these Six Great Base Cities. These monsters have already destroyed many cities in our country, and the country has even used the Mushroom Egg twice to deal with them. However, after a period of calm, they quickly regroup and become even more troublesome due to their absorption of radiation.

Currently, only Six Great Base Cities possess laser cannons capable of withstanding flying monsters with a strength exceeding 100,000. Furthermore, concentrating the population in these Six Great Base Cities facilitates the integration of population and resources, enabling a more effective defense against monster attacks.

Lin Yaodong nodded silently.

What Lin Yaodong could think of, the Military had thought of long ago, but simply couldn't do. Currently, there was no Wargod who could kill the Lord-level Monster among hundreds of thousands of flying monsters. Even the Mushroom Egg had been used, but it still couldn't completely subdue this group of monsters. It's conceivable how troublesome they were.

Lin Yaodong has the ability to briefly fly. If he knew the location of the Lord-level Monster, he might have a chance to fight it. But unfortunately, the Lord-level Monster are extremely cunning and will not easily reveal themselves. Moreover, there is more than one Lord-level Monster among them. Therefore, it is impossible to replicate the experience from the previous Millstone Mountain.

The legion commander still expressed his gratitude to Lin Yaodong: "We appreciate your kindness, but you don't need to participate in the next operation. Save your life to avenge us another day."

Lin Yaodong nodded, remaining silent.

More than 300,000 monsters, and they're all flying monsters. Let alone 300,000, even 30,000 would be too much for Lin Yaodong. He would definitely be worn down to death by the monsters.

It's only been two years since the Great Destruction, unlike the original story which was more than thirty years later. By then, humanity had unearthed many alien civilization ruins, with over a dozen Planetary Level powerhouses and thousands of War God Level powerhouses.

Therefore, the protective shields and advanced weapons such as those capable of carrying laser cannons that appeared in the original work do not exist at this time.

This period can be said to be the most difficult period in human history.

The weapons and equipment used were from before the Great Cataclysm. These weapons and equipment were quite effective before the Great Destruction, with amazing destructive power, but now their destructive power is extremely limited.

Many rifles are only effective at close range, while older pistols are practically useless, and they might not even be able to kill an ordinary human.

The human Military has already recalibrated the production line, and the weapons and equipment being produced now are far more powerful than before, effectively killing monsters.

But this will take time, and currently only a small number of units are equipped with the new weapons.

Most troops are still equipped with the old equipment, and the goal is to replace all troops with new gear.

Even before the Great Destruction, it would have taken three to five years. As for the current situation, it would probably take at least ten years to completely replace the weapons and equipment of all troops.

This is why countries with Military and complete organizational structures were so badly defeated during the Great Destruction.

Time is running out!

If we can wait a few years until the industrial structure is fully adjusted and technology and resources are shifted towards the military industry, humanity will definitely not back down and will definitely be able to fight the monster hordes. At least when facing land monsters, humanity will not be afraid.

Of course, the sea monsters are another story. Even the future Hong and Thunder God would have to compromise with them, and the problem can only be completely solved after the protagonist Luo Feng leaves Earth.

Somewhere at this moment.

Chen Mo looked up at the sky and muttered to himself, "Have we run out of tricks? Then it should be dawn by now."
