The fear of quarantine in the whole city spread like a plague in the hearts of the people. Although the Philippines sent two additional divisions to control the situation, the shadow of death still lingered in people's hearts.

In hundreds of thousands of cities, there are only more than 70,000 people left.

The eastern district has completely fallen, and the western district has also fallen for the most part. Government soldiers spent the night repelling the attacking guerrillas, and another day spent another day pulling out a barrier with barbed wire near the southern part of Xicheng District to establish a security zone.

The day after the crash, government forces opened a fence across the city, confined the zombies to the city of Cagayan. At the same time, Black Hawk helicopters circled the city, sticking to the front lines of the battle in search of the fish.

At the same time, the Philippine government sent transport planes to airdrop humanitarian relief supplies to zombie-occupied areas. and a pamphlet printed by the Ministry of Health on how to survive in zombie-occupied areas, how to maintain confidence in the face of disaster, and more.

It is estimated that more than 10,000 people are still struggling in the "occupied zone", either uninfected or lucky enough to be innate immune to the virus, and in any case, their situation is dangerous. However, the Philippine government has been unable to allocate more helicopters for rescue, because of the danger of the virus and the impact of the civil war, even people from international rescue organizations are not allowed to enter.

People living in safe zones are equally uncomfortable.

More than 70,000 people live in a quarantine zone of no more than a few square kilometres and are not allowed to leave the city. The living space is extremely crowded, and the lack of living materials leads to chaos in law and order. In despair, the ugly side of humanity is exposed to the fullest. People break their heads for a box of antibiotics and sell their flesh for a piece of bread. The "cleaners" in charge of sanitation inspections have the "power of life and death" over everyone, and the logisticians who distribute relief supplies are free to decide who will starve, except for those soldiers who are generally not close to their places of residence, who are the emperors of the soil in the safe zone.

No media was allowed to enter the quarantine zone, and no one knew what was happening here. No one knows how long the quarantine will last, they all have more or less a zombie virus lurking in their bodies, but there is no outbreak. They are dangerous relative to society as a whole. At least until a vaccine is developed, they will not be able to return to society.

This is the source of despair.

It's like a concentration camp.

And it only took two days to get from the situation to such a deterioration.

On the third day, the situation in Cagayan City was under control. The 21st Infantry Division began to advance the line to the south. At the same time, the 14th Division detached the strength of a mechanized brigade and advanced from the security zone to the Cagayan River to regain the bridge across the river. However, the Commander of Operations apparently underestimated the strength of the zombies, and the mechic brigade had not yet been able to reach the bridge. It suffered heavy casualties.

It stands to reason that a soldier with a thermal weapon would not be inferior to a zombie, but this is not the case.

Although the Philippine Army's equipment is not as bad as that of the Navy, the level of training is notoriously low. This is not only reflected in the marksmanship, but also in the response to the battle.

Shooting at unarmed civilians will put the executor under tremendous psychological pressure, even with orders from above. This pressure comes from the long-established moral outlook and the constraints of a society governed by the rule of law. They knew it wasn't true, but they had to do it......

Many people, unable to withstand the bloody pressure, pulled the trigger and strafed the corpses. Vent your fear in fire and forget about the command to shoot in the head. When facing zombies, making such a mistake is fatal.

What broke these soldiers the most was that they had to pull the trigger on their comrades who were bitten by zombies. No drug can suppress infections, and the only way to end their suffering is death, at least for now.

Why not use support artillery to assist in the advance?

Because that's damn humanitarianism.

As long as there is a civilian in the city, and as long as the outside world is still a civilized society, the Philippine government army cannot open fire on its own city. Countless pairs of eyes are on them, politicians don't allow them to do this, and the media doesn't allow them to do it.

It's better to say. Shooting at those "patients" instead of using anesthetics is already under a lot of pressure.

Cagayan City is a mess, and it's a mess that has to be managed. Aquino thought to the extreme more than once. Just set the whole city on fire, and burn all the madmen and viruses in one fell swoop...... Unless he wants to face charges of ****** crimes.

Just after the 3rd Mechanized Brigade of the 14th Division returned to the safe zone with low morale, the Philippine Ministry of Foreign Affairs received a declaration of war from the Star Ring Trade side.

Three hours ago, the naval formation that had formed a formation on the border with the Philippines was completely wiped out.

Two and a half hours ago, the Philippine presidential office repeatedly confirmed the authenticity of the news to the Navy Command.

Two hours later, the news reached the Army Command of the Second Army, which was stationed in the city of Cagayan. Meanwhile. The Star Ring Marines begin their landing in Port Davao.

At this moment, Lieutenant General Eribeli was standing in the temporary headquarters, holding a brief operational meeting.

Just then, an officer walked into the barracks and interrupted the ongoing meeting.

"What's the matter, Sergeant Kaweiler. ”

Sergeant Kaweiler gave a military salute and stood upright.

According to the footage taken by the US satellite, after breaking through the naval blockade, the soldiers of the Star Warp Trade Marine Corps have landed in Davao Harbor, and it is suspected that heavy weapons such as rocket artillery have landed ashore. ”

"What about the U.S. military?" was Eribeley's main concern.

"The USS Stennis is not moving for the time being, and the White House has said it will provide intelligence support to our operations through the Guò satellite and assist in diplomatic mediation to resolve issues......," Caweiler replied.

"These treacherous cowards. Elibeli cursed, slamming his marker on the map.

Jiang Chen is currently unconscious, and the reason why the United States has made such a pacification strategy is that on the one hand, it is worried that the Star Ring Trade, which has lost its leadership, will react out of line, and on the other hand, it is not sure of its combat effectiveness.

The electromagnetic naval guns of the Guardian-class frigate and the combat performance of the Aurora-20 shocked the aircraft carrier Sstanis, which was watching the battle through the Guò Global Hawk UAV. As a result, the White House has to reassess the strength of the new country and at the same time discuss whether to adjust its diplomatic strategy toward the new country.

Although the Hamilton patrol ship was the type of ship that their Coast Guard had eliminated, it was still a little too terrifying to be hit by a single shot. In particular, this semi-curved artillery is not like a missile and cannot be defended by anti-missile equipment. They weren't going to take that risk until they were sure that the USS Stennis would be able to take a hit. After all, their real opponent in the South China Sea is China, and even if they solve the new country's navy, if the aircraft carrier battle group deployed around the South China Sea is damaged, it will be a loss for them.

Yes, they don't consider those two Guardian-class frigates to be a match for the USS Stennis aircraft carrier battle group. After all, no matter how awesome it is, it's just two frigates. Compared with the aircraft carrier battle group with full combat functions, their capabilities are still too small.

But again, no one doubts that it will hurt to be bitten by these two "ants".

There are still many things that need to be discussed, but before they can come to a conclusion, it is likely that the soldiers of Star Ring Trade have already beaten the Philippines down.

That's the essence of Blitzkrieg!

"What shall we do now?" Brigadier Ludel, who was sitting at the command table, picked up the marker pen and handed it back to Lieutenant General Eribeley.

"Don't do it. Eribeley raised an eyebrow, picked up his marker and drew three circles around the three inflection points of the Cagayan River, which runs deep into Mindanao.

"In these three areas, the 21st Infantry Division has established defensive lines and deployed anti-aircraft artillery and machine-gun fire points. I need you to take the 15th Mountain Division through the foothills on the east side of the Cagayan River, deploy new U.S. medium-range anti-aircraft missiles and infantry artillery positions at these five points to support us, and coordinate with the 21st Division deployed along the river on the west side. ”

"In addition, the 101st Armored Brigade of the Northeast Theater of Operations was transferred to the outskirts of Cagayan City. Once the other side concentrates its forces on attacking the defensive line we have laid along the Cagayan River, we will push the 101st Armored Brigade southward, cooperate with the 19th Airborne Brigade to attack Port Davao, and drive those arrogant new countrymen into the sea! Let those navies see the strength of our army!"

As a result, the road leading from Port Davao to Cagayan City will be completely blocked by the fire of two divisions. Any troops that try to break in will pay a heavy price!

"Defensive...... How long will this war take?" asked the quartermaster, turning his pen and looking at Eribery.

"Maybe half a year, maybe just a month. Eribelli said.

"If the laymen rush into our defences, it may only take ten days. Seeing that the meeting was almost over, a rough-looking officer joked.

A proud smile tugged at the corners of Elibery's mouth.

He agreed with his men's statements, although he didn't think they would be so stupid to die.

In any case, the Philippines' military strength is also ranked 25th in the world, and this is still dragged down by the Navy's gangsters.

Although this ranking is not something to be proud of, they are completely worthy of the new country that has not touched the list at all.

……

While the Philippines is making defensive deployments, two Guardian-class frigates have arrived in the waters near Davao Port. The Type 50 J-type electromagnetic cannon has been erected, waiting for the command to shoot.

A night's rest.

More than 1,000 Ring Trade soldiers wearing mechanical exoskeletons have entered Davao City on landing craft and are stationed in the garrison area designated for them by the Moro Nation to rest. More than a dozen large and medium-sized transport helicopters are also on standby in the open space, waiting for orders to attack.

Mindanao's mountainous jungle makes it difficult to use armored units, which is very beneficial for the Moro guerrillas and the Star Ring trade.

Wearing sunglasses and a general's hat, Ivan arrives in Davao City again in a Black Hawk helicopter, this time as a field commander.

The commander of the 5th Infantry Division of Moro arrived at the airport by car to pick up the plane, and his two strong hands were clasped heavily.

"Ready?"

"Ready. ”

Taking off his sunglasses, Ivan slipped them into his pocket under his neckline.

"Then, the battle begins!" (To be continued.) For mobile phone users, please visit wènhttp://mnet
