Chapter 877: Heavy Artillery
In the cockpit of the transport plane, the Cube sat in a chair and watched the clouds passing by outside the window, thinking about what kind of communication equipment he should make to contact the Transformers hiding in the Shenwu Continent. There are masters in the Shenwu Continent, and the Transformers must not fall into the hands of those monks who always talk about opportunities and resources.
Soon, the computer designed a signal enhancement communication facility, sent the drawings back to the factory, and couldn't wait to start manufacturing the communication equipment...
…………
A few days later.
Based on the information collected on the zombie data and characteristics, the mechanical army formulated a very perfect zombie killing plan. Zombies are sensitive to sound. Based on this characteristic, the engineering robots built some simple loudspeakers and steel-structured elevated platforms, and used helicopters to lift the elevated platforms to the zombie area, and then started the loudspeakers to make noise. After hearing the noise, the crazy zombies will gather crazily under the elevated platforms where the loudspeakers are located, and wait until all the zombies in the surrounding area are gathered before covering them with artillery fire from a distance, killing the zombies easily and happily.
The Cube was very satisfied with this plan. It didn't need to fight with bayonets or shoot one by one, which was much easier.
Recently, the people of Yao Country and nearby countries found that those strange armored men began to approach the zombies. Tanks were transported from the highway to the war zone by heavy trucks. A large number of armored vehicles and various military vehicles and artillery were in an endless stream. The sky was densely packed with armed helicopters and transport helicopters, etc. Those who didn't know thought that the zombies were coming and almost caused chaos. Fortunately, various information release channels notified that the Mechanical Empire would attack the zombies, which calmed many frightened people.
The first implementation of the plan, the Cube was personally responsible for the command and flew directly to the heavy artillery position to check it out in person.
The mass-produced heavy artillery is the 155mm M198 howitzer with a maximum range of 30 kilometers. It is the standard equipment of the former Eagle Empire on Earth. It has strong firepower and high reliability. All aspects of the index are very good, suitable for mass production to bombard zombies.
The artillery position was large, with more than 100 heavy artillery pieces deployed. Each heavy artillery piece had four mechanical soldiers operating it in a complex manner. At this time, they were adjusting the fuse settings for the firing parameters. In the sky, a transport helicopter lifted a high-rise and a loud speaker and flew towards the zombie area filled with dead air. The Rubik's Cube did not take action. This action was only to test the feasibility of the plan and collect data. In the future, the bombardment work would be completed by mechanical soldiers.
The Rubik's Cube switched to the mechanical soldier driver of the transport helicopter and watched the transport helicopter fly over the hills and rivers to the target town.
Not long after, the transport helicopter lifted the high-rise and flew over the town. After searching, it flew to an open space in the middle of the town. The high-rise hanging under the helicopter slowly fell to the ground. It was surrounded by zombies who were awakened by the sound of the helicopter and ran over. The mechanical soldier operated the helicopter to secure the high-rise. Then, a mechanical soldier came out of the cabin and fixed four loud speakers facing four directions on the top of the high-rise one by one, equipped with simple batteries, and then the helicopter flew away from the area.
In the town, the zombies that were originally running after the helicopter suddenly stopped, then turned and rushed to the elevated road in the middle of the town...
The loudspeaker kept playing harsh noises, which made the nearby zombies irritable and restless. One by one, the gray zombies began to run to the elevated road. More and more zombies were attracted. Zombies within a radius of five kilometers heard the harsh noise and gathered together. The same thing happened in many places around. The magic cube arranged more than just one bombardment point.
The magic cube switched the camera to the elevated road and looked down. All kinds of zombies on the ground were jumping and trying to pounce on the loudspeaker. There were old people, women and children, and they showed ferocious expressions and kept hitting the steel of the elevated road.
"Such dense zombie shells must be very effective when they fall."
The zombies were indeed attracted. Those in the distance simply climbed onto the heads of the zombies in front of them, and began to pile up layer by layer to desperately reach the loudspeaker on the elevated road.
The zombies at two bombing points were getting closer and closer to the big speakers on the top of the tower because they were piled up together. The weight of the piled-up zombies was so heavy that the steel structure creaked, roared, and crashed into debris. The zombies rushed to the source of the sound desperately, and even many zombies at the bottom were trampled into human skin.
"Almost..." The magic cube stood on the high ground of the heavy artillery position and looked at the dead land in the distance.
All the heavy artillery had been adjusted, and the dense gun barrels were pointing to the sky.
Suddenly, all the mechanical soldiers responsible for operating the heavy artillery moved. One mechanical soldier opened the howitzer mechanism, and another mechanical soldier held the shells with his mechanical hands and stuffed them in, closed them, and then fired...
All the heavy artillery suddenly emitted huge flames and thunderous cannon sounds, and a flash of light flashed by, and the shells whistled towards the distant target!
Clang! The mechanical soldier who was operating the heavy artillery turned on the machine, and the shells with a little flame and still emitting gunpowder smoke were withdrawn. The mechanical hand grabbed the hot and smoking shells and threw them back. Another mechanical soldier loaded new shells into the heavy artillery and continued to repeat the previous action. The fire flashed and the sound of the cannon was deafening. The mechanical soldiers did not feel uncomfortable with the loud noise and continued to operate the heavy artillery to fire the shells...
After each heavy artillery fired five shells in a row, it adjusted the firing parameters of the heavy artillery again and aimed at another zombie gathering point, spitting out flames again, and the shells and shells thrown out piled up...
"High-altitude drones, immediately conduct reconnaissance on the effects of the bombardment."
"Command confirmed."
The high-altitude drone began to conduct reconnaissance on the first bombing point, and sent pictures and bombardment assessments to the Magic Cube.
"The degree of damage is 93%, not bad. More than 100 155mm M198 howitzers fired five rounds of bombardment in a row, which is more than 500 shells, enough to flatten the area around the town. Well done, it's a good idea." The Magic Cube was very satisfied with the bombardment effect and immediately ordered all heavy artillery and helicopter units to start implementing the plan. Suddenly, nearly 100,000 troops around Yao Country began to operate.
From that day on, people passing by the marginal areas could often hear a series of deafening noises, even day and night, and at night they could see thunder flashing in the distance.
The factory is running to produce shells and then send them to various heavy artillery positions. When all the detection images of high-altitude drones are combined, it can be found that the red color representing zombies is fading inland, and the green color representing the mechanical empire is spreading forward. The continuous and fierce bombardment of nearly 100,000 artillery troops is rapidly moving forward to eliminate zombies.
It does not mean that there are no zombies when the bombardment ends. There are also many scattered zombies. When most of them are attracted and gathered together after being hit by shells, there will still be some left. At this time, the mechanical soldiers will enter in armed off-road jeeps and use various firearms to clear them out one by one. There are also mechanical birds and patrol robots to assist. All occupied areas are guaranteed to have no zombie evil creatures.
