Endless Winter: My Camp Infinite Upgrades

Chapter 229: Beehive Incident, Forestry is Dead

April 15, the 48th year of Longyou

On the day of the originally scheduled alliance, an earth-shaking change was taking place in the Hive Camp, which was unaware of the situation.

In channel 21.

"Why are there so many of these bastards from Zhaoyang? Cough cough cough!"

"Hey, brothers, we can't let them rush over, kill them!"

"I can't hold on any longer. Retreat, retreat, only when we retreat to the main area will there be hope."

"You can't retreat. Channel 21 leads directly to the main area. You can't retreat."

"Keep killing. Hold on even if you die. The second leader and the group leader are leading people to deploy defenses in the main area. Buy them some more time."

"If we are really destroyed by Zhaoyang, we will not have a good ending. Brothers, don't retreat. Stand up to me for a while, even if you die."

...............

In the underground space of the beehive, many passages were filled with thick smoke. The only sounds heard in the smoke were fighting, roaring, and howling. There were countless corpses lying on the ground, and all that could be seen were broken limbs and arms. The scene was horrifying and miserable.

The people from Fengchao and Zhaoyang were fighting a desperate battle in the narrow passages. Judging from the situation on the ground and the increasingly stable confrontation between the two sides, it was obvious that this battle had been going on for a long time.

boom……

A large hole was suddenly blasted out on the stone wall on the left side of the passage area. Thick smoke poured in from behind the hole. A burly black figure slowly walked towards them in the smoke.

"You can't follow me, Zhaoyang, and you insist on being a dog for Longshan. You are stubborn and unyielding. Brothers, if you open the last passage, you will reach the main area of ​​the Hive. Follow me and kill us!"

The man was holding a long black stick, his voice was full of anger, and before he finished speaking, he rushed towards the front of the passage.

Although the Hive Elites along the way bravely rushed forward to block the attack, they were too weak. Before they could even get a chance to rush forward, they were chopped into pieces by the man's long stick. The more serious ones were even turned into a ball of blood mist, and directly stuck to the stone wall of the passage.

"Cold-resistant level, he is a strong cold-resistant level!"

"Aren't there only three? Number 7, number 11, number 18, one in each passage. How come another one appeared here?"

"I can't stop you anymore, run away, run away..."

The people in the Hive actually reacted very quickly. They realized that the burly man was a strong man who could withstand the cold, and immediately retreated to the rear.

But the strength of the cold-resistant level expert is really too strong.

Moreover, Zhaoyang, who is at the cold-resistant level, obviously has a strong murderous intent.

As he sprinted, he swung the long stick in his hand rapidly. The dense shadows of the sticks almost filled the entire passage. The beehive guards along the way were basically killed if they were touched. The already cruel passage became even bloodier.

"Hou Ying, stop playing around. Hurry up and take your men to the main area. You've dragged it on for two days and so many people have died. You still can't take down the hive. You can't go back to see the leader."

Suddenly a voice came from the side passage. The burly man who was killing crazily immediately stopped his long stick and looked at the last six or seven people who escaped, with a grim smile on his face.

"Got it, brothers, follow me!"

Hou Yingli shouted, and dozens of fully armed people in the smoke behind him immediately followed him and walked towards the end of the passage.

…………

In the main area of ​​the Hive, behind the open iron gate, thousands of people were fully armed and on high alert. As the fleeing people in Passage No. 1 outside the iron gate were withdrawn one after another, everyone's faces became more and more solemn.

Suddenly, Chen Yingba, covered in scars and holding a big knife, appeared from the end of Passage No. 1. There were only a dozen people left beside him, and they all rushed towards the iron gate in panic.

"The captain is back, and something seems amiss!"

"No, there is another group of people behind him."

"It's Wang Long who is guarding passage 21. Isn't there any cold-resistant level over there? How come he can't guard it?"

The people behind the iron gate felt their hearts sink suddenly when they saw Chen Yingba's embarrassed posture. At the same time, they noticed that there was another group of about six or seven fleeing figures behind him. Someone saw that the leader was Wang Long and immediately questioned him.

Chen Yingba, who was running away, also noticed Wang Long and his group behind him. He immediately slowed down and questioned angrily, "Wang Long, you dare to leave your post without permission? Did you let us go through Channel 21?"

Wang Long, the leader, was in a panic. When he heard Chen Yingba's question, he immediately answered, "Captain, there were strong men at the Cold-Resistant Level. We couldn't hold on. All of them were killed. Only the six of us escaped."

Chen Yingba's expression instantly became furious, and he could see that Wang Long's panicked expression was not fake. He suppressed his anger and asked:
"Number seven is Hou Ming, number eleven is Lin Ye, and number eighteen is Hou Bing. There are only three cold-resistant level ones in Zhaoyang. Who did you meet?"

Wang Long immediately replied, "It seems to be Hou Ying."

Realizing that Wang Long was not lying, Chen Yingba's face was shocked.

"Four cold-resistant classes, four cold-resistant classes actually came, they are determined to destroy my hive, Hou Hu, that bastard!"

Chen Yingba was cursing, but his expression already showed panic.

He looked at his body covered with scars, and thought about how he was almost killed by Hou Ming and Lin Ye just now, and he was still frightened.

Two days ago, on April 13th, just as night fell, a signal of an enemy attack was received. At first he did not react, thinking that it was a cold beast that had mistakenly entered the underground passage, and only sent a few hunting teams to check.

But the subsequent development of the situation was completely beyond his control.

It was not a cold beast, but a large group of people from Zhaoyang camp who were coming to kill them.

Not only that, Zhaoyang's group was obviously very familiar with the layout of the honeycomb channels. Once they found the entrance, they went straight to the four channels: No. 7, No. 11, No. 18, and No. 21.

The hive is located underground, with a total of twenty-seven passages, and only Passage 1 leads to the main area. Normally, no matter which number you come in from, you must follow the number plates from large to small, and finally you can reach Channel 1 and go to the main area.

For example, if you come in from channel 9 and want to go to channel 1, and then go to channel 8 to channel 2, if you make a mistake in any of them, you will not be able to reach channel 1.

This was a protection design for the main area when the Hive was first building its base. However, when it was first designed, it was worried that there might be other unexpected situations in the future, so a backup plan was still included.

The backup plan is channels 7, 11, 18 and 21. These four channels actually intersect with channel 1 underground.

As long as you open the intersection, you can go straight to Channel 1 at the fastest speed and then lead to the main area.

The original intention of this design was to prevent some accidents that might happen in the underground space, such as encountering powerful cold beasts or other major disasters. Through these four passages, people could be evacuated as quickly as possible so that everyone could escape to the ground as soon as possible.

However, now, it has become a convenient passage for Zhaoyang to attack the hive.

"There is a traitor, but it's too late to find him now!"

No more than ten people in the entire camp knew about the four passages. As long as they were willing to investigate, it would not be difficult to catch the traitor. The problem was that Zhaoyang's people were already at his door, and he simply had no time to catch them.

Thinking of the traitor, Chen Yingba was filled with resentment, but he quickly adjusted his mood and thought about the next countermeasures.

"Channel 21 has been lost, and channels 7, 11, and 18 have also been breached. A large number of Zhaoyang people are about to enter channel 1 and attack the main area.

The advantage is that our people are more familiar with the tunnel. They set off signal smoke signals, changed the tunnel number plates, and I launched a sneak attack in the tunnel. Not only did I severely damage Lin Ye, I also killed a lot of Zhaoyang people. I just don't know how many people they have!"

This is the benefit of building the hive station underground.

No matter how many people Zhaoyang brings, they can only fight forward along the passage.

Moreover, due to the narrow space of the passage, bows and arrows could not be used at all. Zhaoyang's several cold-resistant-level soldiers were not clear about the layout of the passage at first, and were worried about the ground collapse, so they did not dare to use their full strength.

But it was different for their own people. They knew the detailed layout of the passage, how many ventilation holes there were, which parts were strong and which parts were fragile, etc. They knew everything clearly and had the best geographical advantage.

It’s a pity that even with the advantage of location, it only lasted two days.

"According to the reports, including myself, we should have killed more than 300 people from Zhaoyang. They are all Diggers. Our casualties are no more than 100 at most. There are more than 600 Diggers and more than 3,000 Woodcutters in the main area. With the iron gate and the advantages of the main area, as long as there are not too many people from Zhaoyang, we have hope of holding on. Moreover..."

Chen Yingba looked back at the direction of the west passageway 11, with a hint of hope in his eyes. "Lin Ye has been seriously injured. As long as Old Wu can kill him, there will only be three cold-resistant level soldiers left in Zhaoyang. Old Wu and I still have more than 3,000 people. We can wait for the opportunity to attack. There is a great hope for us to hold on. As long as we can hold on until Big Brother comes back, this crisis will be over!"

Before this, he was hiding in the dark corner of Channel 11 and found that Lin Ye was injured. He knew without guessing that it was definitely Wu Tianxing who hit him. He then stabbed him again. If Hou Ming had not appeared, he would have killed Lin Ye.

Lin Ye was seriously injured, and Wu Tianxing is still in the passage at the moment. If nothing unexpected happens, he should be able to kill him.

If we could have one less cold-resistant level, tonight would be much safer.

"Chen Yingba, where are you running to? Stay here!"

An angry shout came from behind him. Chen Yingba's body trembled. He did not dare to hesitate for a moment and ran madly towards the iron gate of the main area. While running, he shouted at the people behind the iron gate with a stern look on his face:
"Close the door, close the door quickly!"

The people behind the iron gate heard the sound and immediately started moving.

Two thick iron chains were connected to the top of the iron gate, each pulled by a hundred people. When they heard Chen Yingba's shout, they all started to pull back with all their strength.

Sizzle…

As the iron chain moved slowly, the originally three-meter-high iron gate began to rise gradually, and would soon block the passage.

"The second leader and the others haven't come back yet, Captain, are we closing them now?"

Hearing the sound behind the iron gate, Chen Yingba frowned. It was okay for the others, but it would be unacceptable if Wu Tianxing didn't come back.

"Leave some, don't close it all!"

While giving the order, Chen Yingba also led his men into the main area through the gap in the iron gate. Everyone raised their longbows and aimed at the last one-meter gap left in the iron gate.

boom………

A big knife came slashing from the gap, and the strong wind brought by the blade was so strong that it actually blew the digging masters near the iron gate back continuously.

This shows how powerful this knife is.

But even so, the silver-glowing blade only penetrated the iron gate half a centimeter. Not only that, the blade even curled up.

"Are the bows in your hands just for decoration? Show them to me!"

Chen Yingba shouted angrily, and the more than 3,000 people behind the iron gate immediately loosened the bowstrings that had been stretched tight in their hands for a long time.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh……

Wave after wave of iron arrows, like a violent storm, shot accurately at the man behind the gap.

"Humph!"

The man behind the iron gate snorted coldly. Facing such a dense rain of arrows, he not only did not dodge, but also tried to drill through the gap towards the rain of arrows.

"Hou Ming, die!"

Unfortunately, just as he stuck out half of his head, he felt a fierce blow from a knife. His neck felt slightly cold and he immediately shrank back.

call out………

There was nothing wrong with his perception.

The big iron gate in front of the main area is the last barrier of the hive. How could Chen Yingba let him break through so easily?

He stood behind the gap of the iron gate with a big knife in his hand, looking at the Zhaoyang troops rushing in from Passage No. 1 behind the iron gate. There was a growing chill in his eyes, and he felt a little scared at the same time.

"Four hundred... five hundred... six hundred... eight hundred, how could there be so many people? Isn't Zhaoyang fighting with Longshan right now? How could he send so many Digging Realm people? This... How is this possible!"

The eyesight of the cold-resistant level is far superior to that of ordinary people.

Chen Yingba could judge the number of people outside the door at a glance. When he realized that there were more than 800 people in Zhaoyang, his pupils were instantly filled with surprise.

This was the number after they killed more than 300 people.

In other words, in order to attack the Beehive, Zhaoyang sent out a total of more than 1,200 Diggers, almost twice the number of Diggers in the Beehive.

How strong is the Zhaoyang Camp?

"Chen Yingba, you are a coward. Do you think I can do nothing to you if you hide in there?"

Hou Ming was a thin man, and his voice sounded somewhat sinister. Seeing Chen Yingba hiding behind the iron gate, he looked extremely angry.

"We broke through the iron gate and killed more than 700 of us. How can we be fair to our brothers if we don't break the beehive?"

"Break the door, I'm going to kill someone."

Two more people stood up behind Hou Ming, one holding a sword and the other holding a stick. They were Hou Ying and Hou Bing, two powerful cold-resistant masters.

The two men looked as angry as Hou Ming. After roaring, they rushed towards the big iron gate at the same time.

Hou Ming did not lag behind and joined them.

A broadsword, a sharp sword, and a long stick, three thousand-forged weapons, coupled with three terrifying cold-resistant-level forces, simultaneously struck the gap in the iron gate that was less than three meters high.

boom………

A huge roar sounded, and the entire underground space of the hive, whether the main area or the passage, shook wildly like an earthquake.

Boom... Boom... Boom...

The violent shaking lasted for more than ten breaths.

The Zhaoyang people in front of the iron gate had expectant expressions on their faces, with bloodthirsty gleams in their eyes; the Fengchong people behind the iron gate had fear on their faces, and some of them even began to pray that the iron gate would not be broken.

Boom…

As the vibration of the underground space stopped, the results of Hou Ming and his two companions' bombardment of the iron gate became apparent.

The iron gate, which was only three meters high, not only withstood the bombardment of three cold-resistant-level weapons, but was also lifted up by more than one meter.

"It's not raised, it's moved because of our attack. The main part of the iron gate is buried underground, and it is integrated with the entire main area space. What a beehive, what a Chen Yingyuan, he actually used iron to cast the entire main area barrier. Judging from the situation, the amount of iron ore consumed is probably countless."

Hou Ming's voice was extremely low. He looked at the more than one-meter gap in the iron door with a gloomy expression, thinking about how to break the door.

"It took decades to build the walls of the main area, and it has not stopped even now. As long as there is enough iron ore in the camp, we will continue to build the walls. The thickness is now at least 50 meters. The iron gate is the only weak point. As long as we defend this place, anyone who comes will be in vain!"

Chen Yingba looked at the three people with sad faces outside the iron gate and sneered a few times.

But at the same time, he was also a little confused.

"Hou Ying just said that more than 700 people were killed in Zhaoyang. How is that possible?"

Suddenly, a guess popped up in Chen Yingba's mind. His eyes lit up slightly and his expression became extremely excited.

It must have been Old Wu who led his men to kill him. Who else could it be but him?

"Ying Ba, you have fulfilled your mission. Lin Ye is dead!"

Coincidentally, Wu Tianxing's slightly excited voice came from the side of the iron gate.

Chen Yingba raised his head and looked outside the iron gate. He saw Wu Tianxing holding Lin Ye's body in his hand, and his expression suddenly became excited.

"Hahahaha, Old Wu, come in quickly. Zhaoyang has suffered a big loss this time."
