Chapter XXXIX: The Journey Section 10

tue jul 14 00:00:20 bsp; 2015

Under the gray dome, the war horses of the brigade lined up in several neat columns, and launched an assault against the hundreds of thousands of zombies down the slope! As soon as people are excited, they are prone to cerebral blood surge and neuroticism, and the wild belligerent gene in Batur's body is vividly stimulated in this state! He shouted his Mongolian before the battle - after the charge, the brute man drew his scimitar, whipped the horses first, and led the team to charge the zombie line! Behind him is a large group of warriors who are also wild and unable to extricate themselves!

Here, the zombies have no experience in the cavalry charge, and their leaders will only drive more zombies together according to their instinctive ideas, thicken the formation of the encrypted zombies, and try to offset the impact of the cavalry with a dense formation, but unfortunately, its subordinates are not those real spear phalanx soldiers in ancient times! The distance of five hundred meters is only a matter of an eye under the impact of the cavalry at high speed! Although the front of the array has become smoke and dust because of the wild run of the cavalry regiment, but in the case of being visible to the naked eye, the staff officers still saw the scene that they were looking forward to--- as soon as the two fronts touched, the forward of the entire zombie army suddenly concave a large area, like a group of cavalry in the churning waves viciously rushed into the dense zombie battle array, the zombies in the front did not even make a wailing sound, they were easily knocked out by the tall war horses, the first row, the second row, one column after another, under the power acceleration, the impact of the cavalry is staggering! The French once boasted that their heavily armed knights could break through a city wall, bragging to bragging, but this time, with the support of the mutated physique, it is estimated that the thin wall really can't resist the impact of these mutated horses, and the flesh and blood are flying, and the corpses are wailing! Today is a day of raising eyebrows, all the cavalry are wildly spurring the war horses under the crotch, the tactics are so simple and not strategic, that is, charge, charge! Charge again! In less than thirty seconds, a large number of zombies were ruthlessly trampled to the ground by iron hooves, the weight of the war horse was close to a ton plus the terrifying speed, with the help of the impact force, the first interception of the zombies caused a terrifying killing power, even those M2 zombies were also under the rolling war horse torrent did nothing, can only hold their breath and howl, were knocked down in rows, trampled! The horses of the Cavalry Regiment are equipped with ramming horns made of stainless steel on their chests, which are very suitable for charging, and with the skillful horse control skills of the warriors, the power of this cluster charge is magnified countless times! The brainless zombies roared, powerless to do the dying struggle, the first 30,000 zombie group was just in ten minutes by the cavalry group crazy crushed into powder, the same mutant, the mutated horse in the use of human wisdom is more effective than the zombies who rely on physical advantages to eat! But this is just a warm-up, a fight, and there's no real beginning! In front of the successful cavalry group, the fifteen powerful zombie battle formations have no fear of the death of their comrades, the undead legion will not be upset by this little loss, in the silence, two more zombie legions broke away from their own team, one left and one right towards the cavalry regiment, the R-type zombies will not have the slightest mood swing for the defeat of their subordinates! The top and bottom worked together, and the monstrel zombie army calmly divided into three directions, and began to surround the cavalry regiment that had stopped the impact. The latest and fastest updates

Having just crushed a large group of zombies, almost every soldier of the cavalry regiment fell into a huge surprise, they had thought that under the frontal group battle, their combat effectiveness could reach such a level! In the past, the staff always asked them to use the tactics of fighting and running to consume the enemy, and the safety was quite safe, but unfortunately, there was always a taste of not being able to lift the momentum and not have fun in it, this time it was good, the new regiment commander's understanding of cavalry tactics was really different from the previous old regiment commander, and he actually thought of using the advantages of the horse mutation to directly engage in tank tactics and crush everything! Although it is very adventurous, it is very in line with the thrill of the soldiers crossing the horse and whipping and fighting the three armies! Now the results are not bad, the one-time results are more than before, now, there were still some people who had a little resistance to the new head of the regiment and couldn't help but follow the big guys shouting and celebrating, and they couldn't help but cheer loudly in addition to the excitement, shouting and mocking the corpses of the living dead who had been trampled under their feet! Even those mounts under their crotches kept stepping on broken steps, stepping on the zombies under their feet a few more times, until these demons who should go to hell died no longer anymore!

"Cavalry! The whole team! The whole team! Wielding his sword, he loudly gave the order to the soldiers who were still cheering! Batur is not the kind of person who is complacent when he wins a small victory, he has a short shaved head with a national face, because he stays in the pastoral area all the year round, this hardcover and honest man's face is still slightly darkened, and now, with his excellent record, the general who has won the heart of belonging of the warrior to his side at one time has shaken up his spirit, he will be the courage in the army, what kind of general, what kind of soldier, before, Fred's French gentleman-like cavalry regiment style has been swept away by the new commander, The completely blood-swapped Horsemen are completely alienated in the style of iron and blood! However, discipline was always the ultimate guarantee of the victory of this regiment, and under strict orders, the soldiers obeyed and controlled their horses, and reorganized according to their previous training. On the mountain, the General Staff looked at the whole team of the Xiao Cavalry Regiment as swift as a cloud, and couldn't help but secretly admire the command ability of this Mongolian general. A well-trained army is hard to come by, especially in a short period of time, if it weren't for Fred's good training in the early stage, Batur estimated that he would not be able to rectify this group of unruly guys in a short period of time after taking over, and from the performance of this opening, the staff also saw the great credit of Fred, and put a peasant cavalry, in most of the half a year, through fighting and training, constantly gained valuable combat experience, and finally, created a strong modern cavalry, He has also used many tactics from the past to the present, and even created a lot of new tactics, which is one of the invaluable assets in the increasingly brutal battle against zombies!

The two auxiliary cavalry regiments also began to form under the command of their respective temporary commanders, the commander of the goat cavalry regiment was a local mountain man, he had no name, and his taciturn was his code name--- Lao Weng! He is an orphan, he grew up in a welfare home since he was a child, he joined Zhang Jiaming's guard after the end of the world, and now, this loyal man took the initiative to pick up the burden and became the head of the goat cavalry ordered by Zhang Jiaming, but unfortunately, the discipline of the goats is not very good, despite repeated training, these guys with the same temperament as the stubborn donkeys are still scattered into a nondescript skirmisher formation - just like the way the charge just now, this formation is very unhappy for the old urn.

Here, the real Stubborn Donkey Knights, oh, the Stubborn Knights are still very organized and disciplined, and under the call of their madman regiment deputy - Zhu Weihong, they have already lined up in a neat formation. Ahem, the madman is not as crazy as everyone thinks when he fights, and now, he looks majestic in a shiny Milanese-style knight's armor, a little more coquettish than the Batur in the middle in the Mongolian-style armor! His left and right hands were holding a stainless steel mace weighing more than 100 catties, and the two murder weapons were covered with various residues such as flesh and blood, coupled with the bloodstains of the blackened zombies on his body, which made this guy who was not very photogenic also become a person to look up to, three cavalry regiments, in the first powerful charge, except for more than 20 unlucky war horses that rushed too hard and fell to the ground, the losses were simply not worth mentioning!

At the staff headquarters on the mountain, one combat order after another is also being quickly transmitted, and with the electronic combat map and the convenience of satellite telephones, Zhang Jiaming is very satisfied with the high command efficiency. Under the guidance of several staff officers, Zhang Jiaming looked at the route of this cavalry movement battle.

"Great Chief, this time, we specially chose the battlefield, that is, in order to better implement the tactical purpose, you see, the places where our cavalry fought are all slightly steep slopes, because our troops landed on the south side of the road, and they were assembled at night, under the north wind weather, the zombies could not detect the movement of our troops through the taste system! In addition, in the east mountain, on the side of Niuba Bridge, we have arranged a large number of blood baits in advance, which has completely attracted the attention of nearly one million zombies, according to the signs of the zombie cloud map moving, this R-type zombie has really mobilized most of the troops, and our initial tactical intention has been realized! Look again! The staff officer pressed a few buttons, and under his guidance, a dynamic distribution map was displayed, judging from the map, a large number of black and gray things were still gathering in the direction of Niuba Bridge, "The first step of the staff department's plan is to let the cavalry regiment launch a surprise attack and kill and injure most of the troops of the zombies on the left flank in one fell swoop, in fact, before this, we have made good use of the bloodthirsty nature of the R-type zombies and mobilized the attention of most of its troops!" Zhang Jiaming nodded, although he had already read the plan formulated by the General Staff, and this time he was personally on the spot to watch the battle, he was still very relieved of these subordinate think tanks.

"The cavalry regiment will complete the combat intent under our signal flares, as well as the wireless command system! You see this side, it is the south mountain section of Wangfu Ridge, the cavalry can charge along the steep slope to the foot of the mountain, here is the sheep beach, very flat, stretching for more than ten kilometers, except for the area near the river is not suitable for cavalry traffic, most of the places are suitable for cavalry to carry out plain battles. The staff officer continued to use his command stick to row north along the sheep beach, "Xiaoheling, Huangjinao, Dongpo Temple, and finally, Xianggong Temple!" The staff officer continued to explain: "Our cavalry regiment is to go around the area behind the zombies from the left flank, in the Xianggong Temple, it is a hilly terrain that is very suitable for defense, and in the middle of the night yesterday, our naval army recruit battalion has set off from the waterway, and can occupy it before the cavalry battalion arrives, and carry a large amount of ammunition in place at one time." In fact, the 1st and 2nd Battalions of the Teaching Regiment had arrived there from the mountain road with sufficient ammunition three days earlier, and the information they sent showed that the zombie group had not yet discovered that their back roads had been cut off. "If we completely annihilate the main force of the zombies on the front, then won't the cavalry regiment and the training battalion face a lot of pressure at that time?" Lao Wei frowned, it was not that he had not read the battle plan, but when it came to military affairs, his rigor was no less than that of anyone, and the words of the white-haired general made the staff officers look at each other. "Terrain warfare has always been an advantage we rely on, but, in the last time the combat effectiveness of the flooded zombie army, you have all seen the horror of M3, and the battle of Langxi Bridge in Raiders RS County is the same, without heavy firepower, without the participation of my big leader's guards, how to restrain M3 is always a big problem!" Seeing that the staff officers didn't dare to speak one by one, Zhang Jiaming felt that he couldn't get off the stage, patted Lao Wei's shoulder, and motioned for the staff officers to continue to command the battle.

Walking out of the temporary operations command room, the two stood on the commanding heights of Wangfu Ridge, and at the foot of the mountain, the battle in full swing continued, and the time had pointed to eight o'clock in the morning.

"Old Wei, you're too nervous." Zhang Jiaming took out a cigarette and handed it to Wei Zhongshu, who was tired with a tired face.

"Great chief, the troops are dangerous, and it is not child's play! The plan for this battle was made in a hurry, and if you give me time, I will let the brothers ,,,,,," Zhang Jiaming waved his hand to stop his discernment.

"yes, time!" With a sigh, Zhang Jiaming lit cigarettes for both parties. "We don't have much time, Lao Wei, I know what you think, but you are too cautious, I think, during this time, you still have to pay more attention to rest." When Wei Zhongshu heard this, his face became even more ugly.

"The Great Chief? I,,I,,, am I saying the wrong thing? In a hurry, Lao Wei suddenly had a bitter face, and he looked very nervous.

"You, your current state is no longer suitable for commanding,." Spit out a big smoke ring, and said leisurely, "Come on, take the brigade deputy down, well, Lao Wei, this battle, don't watch from the side, Fred's side is very busy, you go over and take a look, chat with him, and recuperate for a while!" Remember, it's not punishment, it's not about not reusing you anymore! It's an order, a mandatory order to take a vacation! “

Sent away the depressed old Wei and returned to the smoky command post, here, all the staff officers started the operation at hand, but in order to refresh their minds, they all picked up their cigarette guns, saying that they had arrived at the command headquarters, and those who didn't know thought they had entered the big smoke hall. Seeing the big leader coming in, the three staff chiefs hurriedly continued to explain: "Big leader, our first phase of the battle has begun, you see, is the second phase being carried out?" "Execute, let Qin Gengsheng have full command, and tell him that the battle of the central front depends on him to relieve the pressure on the two wings, and the success or failure is all his!" "Yes!"

At 8:40 in the morning, the three major cavalry regiments that fought bloody battles had successfully crushed all the more than 100,000 zombies! However, the soldiers are also so tired that they can't even hold their swords, and although they can win the high-intensity battle, the enemy is an army of the undead who don't know that they are tired, and if they continue to wear it down like this, the entire army will be dragged to death! Batur can't remember clearly, it's the first time he has formed a team, but the signal of the General Staff is delayed, so he has to continue to fight! He is a soldier, even if there is a gate of hell in front of him, as long as the military order, the sword mountain and the sea of fire will be waded through! "Cavalry regiment!" There was still not much sunlight in the gray sky, and Batur, who was covered in blood, immediately stood in front of the soldiers! His hoarse throat was already extremely dry, and the constant roaring and charging in the middle of the battle had made the Mongolian man feel a little tired, but his spirit was still there. Like a hungry wolf's eyes swept over their warrior group, all the soldiers silently lined up the battle formation, dozens of impacts, repeated crushing, the soldiers have also begun to lose their physical strength, in the chaotic battle, there are constantly soldiers falling off their horses, in the chaos of the army, losing the support of the war horse, it is equivalent to declaring their own death, the accumulation of losses, has reached a number that makes Batur's heart ache. Looking at the group of soldiers in front of him as if they had been soaked in blood, as well as the war horses covered in blood, Batur raised his war knife again: "Dai ------ Le!" “

The herd of war horses began to gallop again, this is a strong-willed warrior who is awe-inspiring, in just over two hours of fighting, the loss of more than a quarter of the cavalry regiment is still fighting, they are the pride of R County, and the army that the big leader relies on the most! They won't back down until the last zombie in front of them falls! The sharp Mongolian scimitar cut an arc and attacked again against the stinking zombie horde! "Keep up with the regimental commander!" Almost all the soldiers of the Cavalry Regiment could see the cyan horse with the back of the regiment leader they admired disappearing into the sea of zombies, "Kill!!! "One husband is desperate, ten thousand people are invincible! Under the leadership of such a bloody and fanatical regiment commander, he can inspire his subordinates to have infinite fighting spirit! Even those war horses that lost their riders followed the cavalry regiment to the boundless sea of corpses, their good training was not in vain, without their masters, they were also warriors! An even more tragic battle has begun!

The battle on the left flank had already entered the white heat, the losses of the cavalry regiment began to increase little by little, and as the central troops, they also began to act!

"Drop the armored iron bridge!" The things looted in the RS armament arsenal are not only some firearms, but also thirteen five-six eighty-five-millimeter cannons, all of which are eliminated to equip local troops, and there is not much ammunition, only more than a thousand rounds, these old antiques, fortunately, Shilong recruited a lot of veterans who had been in the army before, and after several tinkering, they were able to exert their residual heat and continue to serve the army. Now, it's time for them to provide covering fire. Under the operation of a platoon's newly formed artillerymen, the hideous barrels began to slowly rise, and at the same time, sixteen quadruple anti-aircraft guns were also towed by the soldiers, and began to aim at the opposite side of the Niuba Bridge! On the side of the other bridge, there are already ready mortar positions, there are not many of them, there are only a dozen or so guns, the performance of Type 89 60 mm is very superior, the rate of fire of thirty rounds a minute is enough to cope with some of the current situation, with the order, these steel Grim Reaper began to wield! The staff officers standing on the mountainside to watch the battle heard a burst of dense thunder-like roar, the artillery is the first time to fight, it is inevitable that the accuracy is unsatisfactory, but this time the war, Zhang Jiaming has given an order, no matter the cost, but also to annihilate this group of zombie groups entrenched in the north in one fell swoop, as long as it succeeds, several counties in the north will be equivalent to opening the door, and he can calmly receive everything! Compared to the battle of RS County, which had to fight to the death but lost troops, it was much more cost-effective! The rumbling cannons came and went, and the screaming cannonballs rushed into the cluster of zombies with a thunderous smile, and the powerful shrapnel shattered, sweeping down countless zombies! The zombies at the center of the explosion couldn't even perceive the arrival of death, and almost at the same time as the explosion, the terrifying tearing force had already turned them all into flying fragments! The artillery fire is so sharp, all of a sudden, it makes the zombies who don't know how to write the word dead at a loss, obviously, this R-type zombie from the north did not expect the attack power of the frontal enemy to be so crazy, but its instinct did not admit defeat, no matter how much it died, it was just some cannon fodder in the eyes of the king of these zombies, just like those ruthless marshals in various periods, the lives of small soldiers were just a few specific numbers in their eyes! The area covered by the artillery fire is not very wide, in a place with complex terrain like GX, it has been able to achieve the expected goal of R County, and soon, the shelling stopped, and on the one-kilometer path north of the Niuba Bridge, the overall number of zombies was weakened a lot! The quick arithmetic people in the staff have come to the conclusion that at least fifteen thousand to twenty thousand or so zombies are completely destroyed in the shelling! But this also knocked out a fifth of the ammunition stockpile! Under the cover of artillery fire, fifty armored vehicles began to advance slowly! Prepare to cross the Niuba Bridge and start the battle sequence. Thirty of them are the R-county's own earthen tanks, modified hook machines and bulldozers with an average weight of less than twenty tons, and the other twenty are the trophies of the first elder of the robbery, the NATO armored car column of one color! According to Victor's **, these are new, maned dog-class vehicles with a tonnage of light tanks, armor thickness of fifteen mm, and new anti-blast armor suspended on the outside - all have been removed and replaced with various wire mesh walls and sharp ramming angles, all equipped with double-barreled fifty-caliber heavy fire machine guns, the front seat of the built-in armored car is also equipped with a 5.56 mm light machine gun, and a medium 90 mm direct-aim gun is mounted on the back of the hull, which can provide auxiliary firepower! The total crew of the vehicle reaches 5 people, and if it is not loaded with heavy ammunition, it can also carry 17 soldiers to the battlefield quickly! Flat terrain can reach speeds of up to 70 kilometers per hour! It is a combat weapon that is so awesome that it explodes, but unfortunately, these precious things are too few, Zhang Jiaming's battle this time can be regarded as moving out all the altars and jars obtained from the last time! The scattered zombies howled in a low voice, and walked over to the first earthen tank that crossed the bridge, these brainless guys knew that the steel reaper in front of them was full of all kinds of steel wire coils that they had never met and were powerless to resist, as a modified earthen tank, the engineers of R County gave full play to the cunning of the peasants, not only added a ramming angle in front of the armored car, but also assembled a large number of protective fences rolled into coils, with these things, not to mention that those flexible IP-type zombies could not jump into the car to attack the driver, Even the low-level M-type zombies will be entangled so that they can't exert their strength, and can only be ruthlessly crushed by the earth tanks, this is not, with the advance of the earth tanks, the momentum of the zombies' impact is becoming more and more violent, but it is in vain, after a while, fourteen earth tanks have completed the formation, and do a horizontal line, neatly rushing towards the zombie group, in their rear columns, it is more armored vehicles after crossing the bridge began to form a formation, and then continue to fight! In half an hour, the convoy had already occupied a small boundary to the north, and the zombie crowd like the wheat stacks lying in the rice fields in autumn abounded in the eyes of the staff officer! The armored group has successfully opened up the situation, but the main force of the zombies has not moved, no one can easily come down, and under the order of the general staff, another team of men and horses began to move!

Numerous small-load three-wheeled electric vehicles are in operation, and these vehicles that were originally used to solve the shortage of rural capacity in the south are now fully utilized, and thanks to the operation of a well-repaired generator at the MS hydropower station, R County can now meet some of its electricity needs. No, with electricity, Zeng Changzhu and Zeng Jianguo began to restore civilian use, collected all the battery cars that were abandoned everywhere, managed them in a unified manner, and modified some of the tricycles that could be used with a little more installation and sent them to the gate of the Ministry of Military Industry, so that the embarrassing situation of the current R County army due to lack of mobility has improved a lot! Large and small vehicles are transporting critical supplies non-stop--- a wall made of steel! Each car is not loaded much, only a few pieces of five hundred catties, but the advantage is more, these walls that have been designed long ago are the new tactics of the R County Army, which is to quickly and simply build a steel position on the preset position! Under the efficient transportation of the vehicle, the three engineer battalions also began to be spliced intensely! Just like building blocks, countless wall panels are quickly spliced together with rivets and steel wires to form a protective wall of different heights, in order to prevent impact, behind the wall, there are large sandbags built up one by one, there is a covering fire provided by peripheral armored vehicles, whether it is sappers or transport team members to do things in an orderly manner, in less than twenty minutes, a steel fortress has already had most of the appearance!

Koning, this foreigner was dumbfounded on the mountain, this time, as a representative, he once again saw the whimsical ideas of these oriental generals, who were able to create a solid and reliable fortress in such a short period of time! It's not that he doesn't believe in the will to fight of these Eastern warriors, Twenty constantly scoffs at the backwardness of their equipment, in his eyes, Zhang Jiaming's subordinates are actually not much different from the spearmen of those savage tribes in Africa, but once again, this guy with half Oriental blood has changed his opinion. In order to better understand Zhang Jiaming's forces, after applying, Kening also brought a small team of 100 people to prepare to assist Zhang Jiaming in the battle, but as a guest army, Zhang Jiaming's staff officers still politely put them in the position of bench players and directly arranged for them to join the third reserve echelon!

"Attention! Note! The zombies are coming! All armored vehicles, stop firing and retreat into bunkers! Start replenishing ammo! Under the order, these earthen tanks slowly opened the reverse gear, steadily and orderly into the construction of the temporary fortress, only a few earthen tanks as the role of the mobile gate, blocked a few points of the steel fortress, the wolf regiment and the eagle regiment of the soldiers have trotted into the predetermined combat position, as a marine unit, both teams have drawn the strength of three main battalions to ensure the density of front-line firepower! As mentioned earlier, Zhang Jiaming spared no effort this time, and he also nailed the main force of the zombie army here, so that his plan could be implemented!

9:15 a.m.! The zombie army has finally stepped into the battlefield! Here, it is necessary to make a little clear about the current topography, the area occupied by Zhang Jiaming's R County is flat land, and the overall area is only fifteen acres of land! After the transformation, coupled with the iron parapet wall, the actual control area has reached an area of more than 20 acres! But it was in such a small place that in front of them was a mountain road jutting out of the ground! The drainage ditches on both sides of the road are not high, the highest place has a drop of more than 30 meters, and the lowest place is only about 10 meters, a typical southern mountain road! Below the road are all kinds of paddy fields of different heights, but after many days of unmanned operation, there have been all kinds of bushes, and after a cannon fire by Zhang Jiaming's forces, it has completely turned into a variety of strange crater terrain! In addition to the straight national highway line in front of them, if the zombies want to play the strategy of flanking and outflanking, the price they have to pay will be very terrifying! The sheer slopes of the wings alone would have made any modern human force frown for a long time.

The zombies are coming, and as always, the gray-toned army of death is dragging its stubborn steps, under the control of its own leader, with a morbid thirst for flesh and blood, and begins its attack on the creatures that can annihilate their humble lives! Like a surging wave, this terrifying legion entered the range of fire without any array, and due to terrain restrictions, the total number of zombie groups in the first batch of zombies to enter the battle reached 100,000! More than a thousand people is enough to dazzle, let alone hundreds of thousands of emotionless bloodthirsty monsters? Qin Gengsheng, as a front-line commander, also came to the front line this time to personally supervise the battle, he pulled out his pistol and his face was very dignified, the defeat of RS made many of his soldiers have a pessimistic mood, thinking that in the fight against zombies, the strength of human beings is too small, especially under the blow of the two M3, the wavering warriors even have a fear of war, if it weren't for the big leader waking up in time--- this is what he later knew, and there may be an internal mutiny in the army of R County! This time, thanks to the big leader's new weapons, judging from the current combat effect, his subordinates have recovered some of their morale, and the next thing is to see how the zombies deal with the ordinary human forces that have become powerful!
