*****************
"Sniper!" After a slight accident, Arthur, Willis and the others quickly understood why these zombies suddenly fell on their own.
Of course, this was done by snipers in the American and Chinese forces.
It's just that these snipers have added silencers to their weapons, so the sound of their guns is not heard by themselves.
This couldn't help but make Arthur and Willis and others feel a little disappointed.
But when they thought that when the war began, they would always have the opportunity to see the true strength of the American and Chinese troops, and they were relieved.
So the team moved on, after a three-and-a-half-hour march.
The local troops of the United States, China, and Britain finally reached the vicinity of Burding Hill.
At this time, the troops of the United States and China had a total of 4 regiments and a strength of nearly 8,000 troops.
In England, there are more than 2,100 people.
That's right! This time, he followed the American and Chinese troops to Berding Hill, saying that they were going to suppress the five local settlements for the American and Chinese troops, and only sent a total of more than 2,100 troops. The average family has less than 500 people.
As the host force, Warwick City only sent exactly 500 troops.
The Thundering Settlement and the Marbury Settlement brought them to the airport to meet the Americans, 600 and 500 respectively.
The other two settlements were weaker, bringing only 300 and 200 people with them
However, Regers and Chen Yuan didn't care much about this.
They didn't want the British to help anyway.
And look at the armament of these local troops.
It's a bit shabby!
Even the unified standard weapons are not available, and many soldiers are still holding old equipment left over from World War II!
It is indeed debatable how much combat effectiveness such a unit can have.
Even Regers himself couldn't help but be glad that he didn't let them help in the frontal battle against Wood Town. Otherwise, if you don't do it, you will really have to drag them back.
Then the American, Chinese, and British troops went up the mountain.
Burding Hill was indeed small, and it was not long before the Coalition vanguard saw Wood Town after going up the winding road, bypassing a hill.
Nestled in a basin between the hills of Burding Mountain, the town is so secluded that it is impossible to see from outside.
"Stop!"
After seeing the town of Wood ahead, the commander of the coalition vanguard immediately whispered an order to the troops to stop advancing. And use tactical maneuvers to direct the troops to disperse and hide in the forests on both sides of the road.
This coalition vanguard composed of an American reconnaissance company, a Chinese reconnaissance company, and several local guides, the officers and men of this coalition vanguard are very high in military quality.
Almost instantly, after receiving the order, all the officers and soldiers dispersed and hid in the forests on both sides of the road and took cover. The zombies in the town of Wood on the other side were not found.
The two company commanders themselves leaned against the side of the road and secretly observed the situation in Woodtown with binoculars.
The town is now walled on the periphery.
The height is about 12 meters. However, it is relatively rudimentary, mainly composed of wood and iron plates.
This makes the entire wall look like a beggar's garment, with patches everywhere.
This also confirms that the corpse control in this town is indeed only at the level of corpse control.
Because only the corpse will control the corpse above know how to build an earth and stone city wall.
But don't underestimate the defensive power of this wall made of wood and iron.
Because as long as the materials are sufficient, many corpses will build the walls very thick. At least two circles of logs, so that the thickness of the wall can reach more than 30 centimeters. Ordinary bullets can't be pierced.
It is also possible for zombies to build more than one wall for defense.
And in Burding Hill, it is clear that there will not be enough materials.
There are large forests nearby, and many of them are decades-old thick trees that can be cut down by zombies in Wood Town and used for building materials.
So in the previous satellite images of Wood Town, Chen Yuan and Regers found two city walls.
Moreover, there are a large number of arrow towers on the city wall, with a large number of zombie archers, zombie spearmen, siege crossbows and trebuchets in the city wall, which can be attacked from afar and defended from near. (At this time, there are quite a few zombies standing guard and patrolling the opposite city wall.) )
Coupled with the terrain here, it is not suitable for a large army to attack. If the firepower of the attacking force is not strong enough, it is really difficult to capture this town occupied by zombies.
It's no wonder that Arthur and Willis gathered 35,000 troops before, but they managed to take this place.
Because it is estimated that many of their troops are blocked from the attack!
"Report to Fort Chief, we have arrived outside of Wood Town and are making observations of Wood Town. Images have already begun to be transmitted synchronously, are UAVs sent for further reconnaissance? After observing the city wall of Wood Town a little, the company commander of the Huaxia reconnaissance unit immediately reported to Chen Yuan and the others who had turned back.
And Chen Yuan quickly replied to him: "There is no need to send drones, although the drone performance of the new Jinling City is good, it is still possible that it will be discovered by zombies, and we have coordinated the satellites of Shenwuguan to monitor Wood Town in real time." Keep moving forward and look for the defensive positions left over from the previous attack on Woodtown by the local forces to see if they can still be used. ”
"Yes!" The commander of the reconnaissance company immediately replied, and then turned to the British guide beside him and asked, "Lieutenant Jimmy, where was the position you set up when you attacked here before?" Can you show us there? ”
Jimmy nodded and replied, "No problem, it's right ahead." ”
Therefore, the commander of the reconnaissance company in Huaxia immediately greeted the commander of the American reconnaissance company on the opposite side, and the troops on both sides continued to touch the front at the same time.
Soon, they found the offensive positions left by the local troops before.
It looks like it's still working, although it needs to be retouched. After all, these are all positions that were dug a year ago. The trenches were littered with weeds and collapsed earth and rocks. But it can also save a lot of time for their troops. After all, it was almost 11 a.m. at this time, and there was not much time left for them to prepare.
However, these positions are outside the woods, and as soon as they come out of the woods, they are estimated to be immediately discovered by the zombie sentries on the opposite wall.
Therefore, hiding at the edge of the woods, the two company commanders of the reconnaissance company immediately reported to the top and asked for instructions on the next operational mission.
"Withdraw first!" After Chen Yuan and Regers discussed, they issued a new order to the reconnaissance troops in front: "Let the troops stand by in the woods, and at the same time pay attention to continue to observe and conceal, so as not to let the zombies in Wood Town find you." We'll be meeting you soon. ”
"Yes!"
After Chen Yuan gave the order, he turned to look at Regers and Qin Cheng and said, "Then next, we will act according to the plan!" ”
