Chapter 162 The Back Mountain Is Lost
As time passed, the atmosphere in the entire base became more and more depressing. Especially the civilians knew that Commander Chen was going to contribute 100,000 people to the zombies. Everyone was worried that Commander Wu would be defeated. Once defeated, the disaster would come. On them civilians.
At this time, Li Yuanhong focused on the protection of Wu Xiong's base. To be honest, Wu Xiong's soldiers were very energetic, and the equipment in his hands was also very good, but these equipment could no longer cause significant damage to zombies. Yes, especially ordinary rifles can only slow down the progress of zombies. If you want to kill zombies, you can only shoot into the eyes of zombies. But in this case, only super marksmen can do it.
Another thing that worries Li Yuanhong is that the ammunition reserve in Wu Xiong's hand is running low. If a high-intensity attack is carried out, these ammunition can only last for half a day. Although the message Li Yuanhong sent two days ago has been responded to, But three days have passed and no reinforcements have arrived, which makes Li Yuanhong feel worried.
When the sun began to shine from Dongshan, a sentry discovered that countless zombies were swarming on the road in the distance. From a distance, it looked like ant colonies covering the road. Zombies were also found on the roads around the base. These zombies seemed to be commanded by someone, and they were rushing towards this side with neat steps.
When the sentry saw the zombies coming, he immediately sounded the alarm, and the alarm sounded throughout the valley. The soldiers in the valley immediately rushed to their posts, especially the various artillerymen, who began to adjust the muzzles of their guns. Dozens of artillery on the city wall were pointed into the distance, ready to fire at any time.
The zombies did not stop advancing because humans were prepared. When the zombies entered the base less than five kilometers away, the commander on the city wall finally spoke: "Ready! Fire!"
Following an order, more than a dozen artillery pieces sprayed flames, and the "rumbling" sound of the cannons echoed in the valley for a long time. With the artillery fire, fireworks exploded in the zombie group. Many zombies were rushed into the sky by the artillery fire. However, although many zombies fell heavily from the sky, they were not injured. Only some zombies in the center of the explosion were injured. Killed by the explosion, but these dead and injured zombies can only be counted in numbers.
The artillery fire became more and more intensive, and the zombie casualties also increased, but it still did not stop the zombies from advancing. Finally, half an hour later, the zombies arrived at the city. At this time, the soldiers on the city began to shoot, and various guns began to fire. , and some Guards artillery and rocket launchers also opened fire.
There were explosions one after another, and bullets were fired all the time. Although it was very lively, there were not many dead zombies. This was mainly because most of the bullets and explosion fragments only injured the bodies of these zombies and did not hit the zombies. 's head.
"I have targeted them all. Aim for the head. It's useless to shoot the body!" The commander commanding at the top of the city shouted loudly. This kind of ineffective shooting is just a waste of bullets.
Although the officers roared loudly, the effect was not great, because now the zombie wave has caused panic in everyone's hearts. A large part of these soldiers were re-recruited from the survivors, former veterans who fought in the last breakout battle. , have been sacrificed, and the surviving veterans are less than one-third of the entire army.
"This won't work. It will only increase the panic of the troops. I suggest that those who are accurate shooters be organized together, and those who are poor shooters can be used for carrying supplies and other tasks. Our city wall is high enough and cannot be attacked by zombies." Li Yuanhong also looked at it for a while and knew that it would definitely not work if it continued like this, so he suggested Wu Xiongdao.
"Well, let's do it according to Brother Jia's method." Wu Xiong immediately ordered the troops to make readjustments. With this adjustment, the attack effect of the troops was immediately improved, and the number of zombies that fell was obviously higher.
Li Yuanhong was not happy because of the increase in the number of zombies falling down, because the zombies in front were all ordinary zombies, and their levels did not exceed level ten. No matter how many such zombies were killed, they would not have any impact on the combat power of the zombie group. Big, obviously the zombie horde sends such zombies forward to consume human ammunition.
Li Yuanhong picked up the telescope and looked into the depths of the corpse group. Only then did he realize that among the corpse group, the real combat power of level ten or above was far more than half. However, only a small part of the zombies gathered under the city, and only a small part of them were behind. It is the real main force of zombies, and there are also zombies with special powers that have not appeared. The hard battle is still to come.
As the battle progressed, the corpses of zombies began to pile up slowly. Although the city wall was fifteen meters high, it could not hold up many zombies. The pile of corpses under the city wall had already piled up to five meters high, and it was obviously on a certain slope. It seemed that the zombies were going to This was not the first time Li Yuanhong had encountered using these low-level zombies as corpse ladders. Li Yuanhong had already prepared, but Li Yuanhong planned to let the zombies pile the corpse ladder higher and then solve it all at once.
Just when Li Yuanhong and Commander Wu Xiong were paying attention to the zombies under the city, fierce gunshots suddenly came from behind the station. Li Yuanhong was stunned and hurried to Wu Xiong: "Commander Wu, how many troops are there behind the mountain? What heavy weapons are there? "
Commander Wu Xiong was also stunned: "This is the responsibility of Commander Xu, I have no involvement."
"Captain Xu? Is that the commander who was with you that day?" Li Yuanhong asked quickly.
"Yeah, what's wrong?" Wu Xiong asked with some confusion.
"Commander Wu, hurry up and set up the defense at the entrance of the cave. I think we have to give up the defense of the city wall. Before we evacuate, push the oil drum down and light the pile of corpses on fire to stop the zombie attack." Li Yuanhong said anxiously.
"What's wrong?" Wu Xiong asked somewhat puzzled.
"I think the zombies are coming from the back mountain!"
"How is it possible? The back mountain is two to three hundred meters high. Even if the zombies wanted to pile up, it would take hundreds of thousands of zombie corpses to do it. It's absolutely impossible!" Wu Xiong didn't believe it.
"Whether you believe it or not, Commander Wu, I advise you to quickly set up the defense at the entrance of the cave. Wait for the zombies to kill you, and it will be too late to set up any more. I will go to the back mountain to take a look now." With that, Li Yuanhong jumped down quickly. City wall, run towards the back hill.
Although Wu Xiong didn't quite believe Li Yuanhong's words, it was not a bad thing to make some preparations early, so Wu Xiong began to arrange the defense at the entrance of the cave. It must be said that as a professional soldier, Wu Xiong had very strong fighting qualities, and soon the cave door was blocked. It is arranged like a fortress.
Li Yuanhong quickly ran to the back mountain. At this time, there were no gunshots in the back mountain. This was not because the fighting in the back mountain was over, but because almost all the soldiers guarding the back mountain were killed, and a few who persisted in fighting were all killed. Also injured. At this time, the cliffs of the back mountain were crawling with long-tongued zombies, numbering at least tens of thousands. For the soldiers guarding the back mountain, their crude weapons were simply not enough to kill these highly evolved mutant zombies. They could still It's a miracle that anyone is alive.
When Li Yuanhong arrived, hundreds of long-tongued zombies had already attacked the cliff. Seeing this, Li Yuanhong immediately took out his Sand Eagle and began to fire at these long-tongued zombies. For these zombies, Li Yuanhong almost shot them one by one, and he had the eye of truth. With help, Li Yuanhong rarely missed a chance.
Even so, Li Yuanhong could not stop the influx of zombies. Li Yuanhong knew that the back mountain could not be defended. So Li Yuanhong quickly rushed to the few people who were still alive: "Can you still leave?" Li Yuanhong asked.
"It's Jia Yingxiong, please leave us alone. We are all injured and can't survive. You should leave quickly!" When these people saw it was Li Yuanhong, they all responded with grateful expressions, but they knew that they were about to turn into zombies, so Let Li Yuanhong leave quickly.
"You can't die!" Li Yuanhong said firmly. As he spoke, he took out a few zombie virus antidotes from his arms and handed them to them: "These medicines can detoxify the virus on your body. After the injection, withdraw quickly and I will wean you off." Li Yuanhong said.
"We are injured and can't walk fast! Jia Yingxiong, you should leave first!" Several people were still planning to refuse.
"Why are you talking so much nonsense? Hurry up and get injected and leave, otherwise you are dragging me down!" Li Yuanhong said angrily.
Seeing Li Yuanhong's firm tone, several people had no choice but to take the injection and helped each other walk down the mountain.
During this period, Li Yuanhong's pistol never stopped shooting. At this time, forty or fifty zombies had been shot by Li Yuanhong, so these long-tongued zombies were blocked, but Li Yuanhong knew that he would never be able to stop these zombies by himself. Once they are unable to stop them, the few soldiers who have just left will soon be overtaken by these zombies. So Li Yuanhong was ready to make a big move.
Li Yuanhong fired while slowly retreating back. When he retreated fifty meters, Li Yuanhong was nearly sixty or seventy meters away from the cliff. Li Yuanhong fired the bullets in his pistol, and then quickly inserted the pistol back into his waist. , then pulled out the Blade of Time from behind, flashed suddenly, and rushed into the middle of the corpse group. Then the Blade of Time slashed hard, and immediately a black black hole of time and space was opened.
The black hole of time and space was opened, and Li Yuanhong hid in the invisible space without hesitation. Li Yuanhong did not want to be sucked into the black hole. As the space opened, everything around him was instantly sucked into the black hole. The zombies around the black hole were sucked into the black hole before they could react. Even some zombies who had just climbed up the cliff could not escape. The fate of death.
When Li Yuanhong finally came out of the hiding space twenty seconds later, the cliff had become bare, with no trace of human defenses or zombies. Li Yuanhong knew that the lives of those soldiers had been saved.
However, the zombies did not give Li Yuanhong much time to rest. Soon zombies appeared on the edge of the cliff, and more zombies were climbing up the cliff.
Li Yuanhong glanced helplessly at the cliff, then turned around and quickly evacuated towards the cave entrance. Within five minutes, the edge of the cliff was covered with zombies again, and they began to attack down the mountain along the way up.
Li Yuanhong quickly returned to the base. At this time, Wu Xiong had received a report from the defeated soldiers and knew that Li Yuanhong's prediction was correct, so Wu Xiong quickly started to arrange a retreat according to the previous plan. Especially before the evacuation, Wu Xiong set fire to the pile of corpses under the city wall. This frontal attack was blocked by the wall of fire, which temporarily relieved the pressure on the human beings to retreat.
When Li Yuanhong returned to the base, he saw that the entrance to the cave was almost sealed by tanks, there were as many as five or six light and heavy machine guns, and the gate was also fortified with many rocket launchers and other weapons. Seeing this, Li Yuanhong finally felt relieved. At least the zombies would not rush into the cave in one breath, otherwise the entire base would be really doomed.
When Li Yuanhong came to the cave gate, Wu Xiong asked with some shame: "How long will it take for the zombies in the back mountain to kill them?"
"Ten minutes at most!" Li Yuanhong said tiredly.
Wu Xiong was slightly dazed. Unexpectedly, the base was lost even after half a day.
