Chapter 304: Containment
The road army didn't expect the military to really do what he said, and also sent precious tanks and armored vehicles, which is a big deal, you must know that this team is likely to go and never return.
However, if this mechanized team can find the location of the corpse controller, there is still a good chance of successfully dealing with the corpse controller, after all, with the corpse controller's fragile body, it is simply unable to withstand the artillery fire of tanks and armored vehicles.
But if they can't find the corpse controller, they will be surrounded by infected people, and even tanks will be overwhelmed by endless infected bodies.
What the road army doesn't know is that Li Feng, the only powerhouse in the military at present, is also in this mechanized team, and he will lead the mechanized team to complete the raid on the corpse controller.
Originally, Li Feng was sent out by Fang Shi to transport the grain, but when he returned in the evening, he found that one of the walls of the gathering place was blocked by the infected body, so he had to take a detour and enter the gathering place through another city gate.
When he finished the detour and returned to the gathering place, he immediately received Fang Shixin's order, which was to lead the team outside to raid the leader of the infected body, the "corpse controller", to buy time for the gathering place.
It wasn't a good job, it was like going to die, because he didn't even know what the corpse controller looked like or where he was located.
And to be honest, Li Feng doesn't really believe in the existence of corpse controllers, after all, mutant infections are terrifying enough, if there are corpse controllers who can control the infected body, then how will human beings survive in the future?
But even if he had all kinds of doubts and unwillingness, Li Feng could not refuse or resist Fang Shi's orders, because he was a soldier, and it was his duty to obey orders, and he was the only person with extraordinary abilities in the military, and he had to have the duties and responsibilities that a person with extraordinary abilities should have......
Some people may wonder, isn't Fang Shi at odds with Zhang Deshuai's faction? Why did he send his only Stranger on such a dangerous mission?
Well, that's right, Fang Shi is indeed at odds with Zhang Deshuai's faction, but don't forget, discord is only their internal matter, and the infected body is an external enemy, a man-eating monster, and when the external enemy comes, it must be unanimous with the outside world.
Otherwise, when the foreign enemy comes, you are still fighting in the house, the gathering place will inevitably be lost, once the gathering place is lost, the Fang Shi will be finished, and Zhang Deshuai's faction will also be finished, which they have common interests.
After all, Fang Shi lived comfortably in the gathering place, did not worry about food or clothing, and there were many people to protect, he didn't want to spend the days of sleeping in the wild and fleeing everywhere.
Therefore, after seeing that the infected body had attacked the city gate and receiving Zhang Deshuai's message for help, Fang Shi put aside his internal grievances and immediately asked Li Feng and his only remaining tanks and armored vehicles to go out, wanting to work together to defend the gathering place first.
If he succeeds in keeping the gathering place, then he also has a share of credit, and if he can't keep it, then he can be regarded as doing his best, and he is worthy of his heart.
Although Fang Shi didn't know exactly what the corpse controller was, now was not the time to dwell on these, if he hesitated any longer, the infected body would come in, and it was the most important thing to go to the battlefield first.
Li Feng also knew Fang Shi's thoughts, and after he and the mechanized team continued to advance for two hundred meters, they felt that they were already close to the rear of the infected group, so they used the flares and the lighting they carried to find the so-called corpse controller.
Li Feng had never seen the corpse controller, nor had the people in the mechanized team, so he didn't know what the so-called corpse controller looked like.
But the information they got was that the one who was protected by a group of mutant infections in the middle was the corpse controller, and the mutant infections were still relatively easy to recognize, and Li Feng and the soldiers only needed to find a place with many mutant infections.
After the mechanized team circled around the back of the infected group for more than ten seconds, some of the infected people who were attacking the gathering place in front seemed to sense something, and slowly turned their heads to look at the moving mechanized team from a distance.
Then, nearly 5,000 infected individuals suddenly stopped moving towards the gathering place, and collectively turned their heads and walked briskly in the direction of the mechanized team, trying to surround and kill the mechanized team.
Seeing that a group of infected people was walking towards them, Li Feng began to believe that there really was a corpse controller, otherwise with the IQ of these ordinary infected people, it would be impossible for them to collectively make such a strange move.
"All pay attention, always be vigilant around, report immediately if you find an abnormality, the main gun of the tank is allowed to fire at the infected group, try to keep a distance from the infected group, and do not fall into their encirclement." After confirming the existence of the corpse controller, Li Feng immediately raised the walkie-talkie to alert the soldiers who were traveling with him around him.
After hearing Li Feng's words, the mechanized squad immediately changed its formation, from the original assault formation to a defensive formation, so that the tank's artillery could aim at the infected group.
"Boom! Rumble! Rumble! "The three tanks that turned their muzzles fired lethal shells at high speed, targeting the infected crowd hundreds of meters away.
Although firing at high speed will cause the hit rate of the gun to drop a lot, the area where the infected population is located is very large, and as long as the shell falls within this range, it will kill the infected group, so it does not matter if the hit rate is low.
In the blink of an eye, three high-explosive bombs exploded directly into the group of infected people a few hundred meters away, killing and injuring hundreds of ordinary infected people, and the huge explosion sound also made many infected people stop their attacking movements, wondering what was going on behind.
But this was not the end of the story, as if the tanks were deliberately pouring shells to attract the attention of more infected, one round of shells was fired, followed by the next, and in just one minute, the three tanks fired nearly twenty shells, killing and injuring thousands of infected people.
Although some shells landed in the clearing, the series of explosions created enough momentum that more and more infected people were attracted by the sound.
The soldiers saw that the mechanized squad in front of them had led away a large number of infected, leaving only more than 10,000 ordinary infectates and one tyrant infected body attacking the city wall, and their morale was greatly boosted, and their firepower was also fierce, trying to suppress the remaining infected people back outside the safety line.
The Tyrant Infected also saw the mechanized team behind it and the human side wanting to increase the ferocious firepower, but instead of going back to stop the mechanized team, it continued to attack the city gate despite the fire from the city walls, because it was only a little short of being able to completely destroy the city gate......
Zhang Deshuai looked at the infected bodies attracted by the mechanized team and the city wall where the pressure had plummeted, and his heart was extremely excited, he didn't expect this ridiculous-sounding method to work so well, and it really contained a large number of infected people......
