Chen Yuehui knew very well that the mission of their garrison was to ensure that the exploration mission was completed at all costs.

Combat Wolf, who was sitting not far away with a drone controller in his hand, suddenly stood up and looked at Chen Yuehui. “Commander Chen, something happened. One of the Sakura Nation’s warships dropped a batch of genetic animals on the neighboring island. Now, these genetic animals are approaching here. They are very strange, but the strength and speed they erupt with are above ordinary animals. This is very troublesome.”

Chen Yuehui immediately frowned. “The island next door? Didn’t you say that the one you were ordered to escort is on the island next door?”

Combat Wolf nodded solemnly and quickly walked to the command table. He picked up his earpiece and said, “Therefore, we have to confirm the next step with the chief. Those genetic animals might bring trouble!”

Combat Wolf pressed the button on the table, and Zhao Guofeng’s voice came through the earpiece. “What is it?”

Combat Wolf said solemnly, “Chief, I’m Combat Wolf. I’ve been staying in the garrison according to your orders to secretly protect Comrade Su Yun. Now, there was a very serious problem. The Sakura Nation had sent a group of genetic animals to land on the island where Comrade Su Yun was. They were probably planning to attack us from behind and disrupt our formation.

“From the location where the genetic animals landed and their trajectory, if these genetic animals wanted to appear behind the garrison, they had to pass through Comrade Su Yun’s location.

“The characteristics of these genetic animals had been strengthened by their genes. They were faster, and their wildness was stronger. Their speed, strength, and even bloodthirsty desires were enhanced by their genes. The strength of its body was even above that of geneticists.

“For the time being, it was impossible to determine the species of genetic animals, but those exposed to the drone’s line of sight were all very powerful beasts. Even if these leopards, wolves, and even poisonous pythons had not been genetically strengthened, they were still among the top natural killers in the food chain.

“With their genes being strengthened, their characteristics had been magnified by more than a few times. What should we do now?”

Zhao Guofeng’s expression changed, and the atmosphere in the command room dropped. The two commanders of the Dayu Fleet stood at the side and did not even dare to breathe loudly. From time to time, they would glance at Zhao Guofeng, afraid that he would fly into a rage.

Zhao Guofeng slammed his palm on the table and said angrily, “These bastards, even the animals are used as weapons? Is there a need to ask me such a question!? Are you going to ask me which hand is holding the chopsticks when you eat?”

Combat Wolf didn’t know what to say after hearing Zhao Guofeng’s words. However, before he could reply, Zhao Guofeng said angrily, “Kid, listen carefully. No matter what happens, you have to guarantee his safety!”

Combat Wolf immediately agreed. After disconnecting, he immediately ran out of the command tent.

Zhao Guofeng was still furious. Sakura Nation was clearly playing dirty. However, it was obvious that Zhao Guofeng valued Su Yun very much. Otherwise, he would not have risked the fragile blockade to get Combat Wolf to bring people to protect Su Yun in such an urgent situation.

He was not worried about Su Yun’s safety. After all, he was very clear about Su Yun’s strength. What he was concerned about was whether Su Yun would feel disturbed. It would be difficult to deal with when they met. After all, he had tricked him into coming here this time because he had a favor to ask.

The sea that was filled with artillery fire finally welcomed a short silence after the chaos. The Sakura warship finally couldn’t withstand the firepower and retreated outside the blockade area. This greatly boosted the morale of the soldiers on the Dayu Fleet, while the Sakura Nation’s morale became even lower.

In the command room of the Sakura warship, the commander-in-chief was furious and reprimanded the captains of other warships. “Baka! What’s wrong with you guys? The previous order was very clear. You just need to divert the enemy’s attention and let the genetic animals land on the island. Why are there still so many casualties?!”

The captains sitting at the conference table were all angry but did not dare to say anything. Are you kidding me? Do we think we can avoid casualties just because we want to? We had to attract firepower and not have any casualties. Was there such a logic in the world?

However, no one dared to say it out loud. They could only let the commander-in-chief vent his anger.

The Sakura Nation’s commander-in-chief was also under immense pressure. On one hand, the higher-ups of Sakura Nation were urging them with all their might, not considering the actual situation at all. From time to time, they would ask why they had not occupied Jing Wei Islands. On the other hand, the American Empire gave them pressure. They did not dare to face the Eastern Kingdom head-on, so they gave all the pressure to the Sakura Nation.

The commander-in-chief was really suffering in his heart, not to mention that he was in a desperate situation.

If they walked forward, they would be within the range of the Ancient Eastern Kingdom’s firepower. From just now until now, the other party had added five more warships. The entire sea area’s blockade area had expanded by a notch.

The upper echelons of the Sakura Nation clearly did not want to cause even greater losses in order to help the American Empire as the promised reinforcements had yet to arrive. Therefore, the commander-in-chief felt very depressed and naturally vented it on the people around him.
