Chapter 134 Strategic Shift(1/2)
Helicopters flew out from Light-Chasing City, bombing the piles of corpses back and forth.
Heaps of corpses piled up, and were bombed down, and piled up, and were bombed down again.
The rain of bullets on the city wall poured down almost non-stop, taking away the lives of zombies every moment.
The huge casualties made Chen Feilong's eyes turn blood red.
Just now, the number of zombies has dropped to less than 300,000.
The sky turned white again, and the battle between him and the Light Chaser Army was on its fourth day.
At this time, Chen Feilong could no longer stop.
After paying such a high price, if he could not capture the Light-Chasing City, he suspected that he might die of sudden cerebral congestion.
Although as a zombie, cerebral congestion is unlikely, he already felt a headache.
Fortunately, after dawn, he felt that the balance of victory was still tilted to his side.
After being repeatedly bombed and trampled on, the pile of corpses had become extremely solid. The blood and rotten flesh underneath had almost solidified together, turning into a gelatinous substance that was difficult to fall down despite being burned by flames.
The pile of corpses that was once bombarded to about fourteen meters gradually returned to a height of seventeen meters.
"It's soon, it's soon!"
"Although my corpse group only numbers less than 300,000, I can still crush the Light Chaser City as long as I open the final gap."
Chen Feilong was hiding behind, waiting with gritted teeth.
He felt that in three hours, the pile of corpses would definitely reach a height of nineteen meters.
At that time, no matter how powerful the light-chasing army's firepower is, it will be impossible to stop the advance of the zombies.
........
Of course, Tang Zheng was very aware of this situation.
Being able to fight to this level is almost the limit of the Light Chaser Army.
One million zombies is still too many. After four days of continuous attacks, it is only a matter of time before the outer city wall is lost.
Seeing that the situation was almost irreversible, Tang Zheng issued an order.
All residents in the outer city will now come out of their homes and enter the buffer zone of the inner city.
People from the Public Security Department took to the streets again and began to move the residents.
The residents of Chasing Light City came out of their homes and, under the guidance of the Public Security Department, entered the inner city gate that they had never entered before.
But after entering, they discovered that there was a large open space, enough to accommodate tens of thousands of people staying here.
There is still a circle of city walls around it, and they still don't know what is behind the city wall.
Wave after wave of residents of Chasing Light City began to enter this buffer zone.
The evacuation of 40,000 people also takes time. People from the Public Security Department were busy taking off with both feet. Military trucks came in handy at this time and directly pulled some residents who were far away.
Fortunately, the execution of the Light-Chasing Army was very strong, and there was no sloppiness. The residents who stayed in the Light-Chasing City also cooperated very well with the Light-Chasing Army's actions.
After more than two hours of busy work, the transfer of 40,000 residents was completed.
All 40,000 people entered the buffer zone.
The city gates are closed, and the outer city has become a vacuum zone.
After the transfer was completed, Tang Zheng's persistence almost reached its limit.
The pile of corpses outside the city wall had reached a height of eighteen meters. When the armored zombies arrived, their heads were almost at the same level as the crenellations.
Although this is very convenient for headshots, it will also make the pile of corpses quickly increase, and it has already gone straight to nineteen meters.
"General, the radar squad reports that the total number of zombies is less than 250,000."
Tang Zheng nodded: "That's almost it. We can't hold on to the outer city. Now convey my order. The medical team, cooking team, engineering team, artillery team, armored team, and Public Security Department personnel will enter the inner city first."
"Then the field troops and city guard troops will retreat along the city wall to the east and west sides, focusing on guarding the northeastern city wall area, focusing on guarding the city wall passage, and retreat to the inner city wall to redeploy defenses."
"Helicopter troops continue to provide cover and help our personnel enter a safe area."
"clear!"
As Tang Zheng issued the order, the retreat of the Light Chasing Army also began.
At this time, the artillery troops had already entered the inner city. After all, the artillery and rocket launchers had lost their effectiveness in attacking and defending the city wall.
Other troops also began to retreat in an orderly manner.
When all other arms retreated, the field troops and city guard companies also began to retreat.
First, the soldiers on the watchtower and the soldiers in the bunker came to the city wall and retreated with the large army.
The advance troops have returned to the northeast wall area and the inner city wall area.
Because the northeastern city wall area is a blind spot, which is not conducive to the spread of zombies, the intensity of the attacks it receives is very small, which is far less intense than the southeastern area. Instead, it has become a safe zone.
After the advance troops gained a foothold, large sections of the city wall began to be abandoned.
The first was the south gate, where the fighting was fiercest, and the soldiers began to evacuate.
As the soldiers evacuated, the zombies roared and rushed to the city.ωωw..net
But there was no one here, and zombies tried to chase the retreating soldiers.
The helicopter arrived soon after and continued to shoot at the zombies on the city wall from the sky.
The city wall was ten meters wide, and several planes fired back and forth, quickly forming a blockade that temporarily intercepted most of the zombies.
The retreating Light Chaser soldiers also kept firing, knocking down zombies one after another, or hitting them directly under the city wall.
In this way, the soldiers retreated steadily and came to the southwest and southeast areas.
All helicopters entered cover mode, and the retreat in the southwest and southeast areas was also very smooth.
After nearly an hour of retreat operations, the soldiers finally moved to the city wall in the inner city.
There are only two places to focus on guarding, one is the middle section of the eastern city wall, and the other is the middle section of the western city wall.
Because the walls of these two places are connected to the inner city, as long as these two points are guarded, the zombies will not be able to rush over.
A large number of heavy machine guns and rocket launchers have been set up at these two places. As long as the zombies rush over, they will be hit by the light-chasing army like a violent storm.
The city wall is ten meters wide and 20 meters high on both sides. It is very difficult for zombies to crowd here due to their numbers. In the end, they will be squeezed under the city wall by their own people.
When the battle has progressed to this point, the Light Chasing Army has completed its strategic shift and entered a new stage.
It is almost impossible for zombies to break through the city wall unless they are joined by half a million new zombies.
If you cannot pass the city wall, you can only launch a new round of attack on the second city wall under the city wall in the inner city.
Only by piling up a few piles of corpses again and attacking them again can we defeat the Light Chasing Army.
But obviously, with the current number of zombies numbering more than 200,000, it is already difficult to do this.
...
When the zombies climbed onto the city wall, Chen Feilong was so excited that he almost shouted.
Even though his tear glands no longer functioned, he felt his eyes were a little moist.
It’s not easy!
With only a quarter of his corpse group remaining, he finally reached the top of the Light-Chasing City.
He knew that the outer city area had been completely broken, and it was impossible for the Light Chasing Army to recapture this city wall again.
The pile of corpses outside the city exceeds 19 meters. The zombies can reach the top of the city by raising their legs, so there is no point in recapturing it.
He thought he had won. Next, it would be time for the zombies to massacre humans. This was also the time he was most looking forward to.
But the performance of the Light Chasing Army next surprised him again.
They showed no panic at all when the city was breached. They retreated in an orderly manner with guns in hand, and continued to kill zombies during the retreat.
After an hour of retreat, his zombies did not take any advantage. After leaving more than 10,000 corpses behind, he could only watch helplessly as the Light Chasing Army retreated to another city wall.
When Chen Feilong blended into a group of ordinary zombies and climbed to the top of the Light-Chasing City, he spat out a mouthful of blood when he saw the second city wall and the Light-Chasing Army waiting on the wall.
There is actually a second line of defense!
Isn't God playing tricks on me?
Especially when he looked at the connection between the two sides of the city wall, where countless heavy machine guns and rocket launchers formed an impenetrable line of defense, he felt that even if the orangutan zombies charged through, it would be almost impossible to succeed.
It's no joke to focus a lot of firepower on one spot.
Especially since it knew that there was a terrifying monster hidden under the water in Chasing Light City, this idea became even more unrealistic.
what to do?
Chen Feilong stood blankly on the city wall. He was accidentally squeezed down by his men and rolled from the pile of corpses to the bottom of the city.
Sitting blankly under the city for a long time, he felt that he had no hope.
He completely fell into Tang Zheng's trap and was led by the opponent from the very beginning of the battle.
To be continued...
