Chapter 975: A Zombie Who Was Beaten to a Temperless Temper
On the other side, Zhang Zeshan's mechanized troops caught up with the main force of the retreating zombie group again after 1 hour.
And so the harassment continued.
The Corpse King is so angry! After the 50,000 zombies stayed, they only bought them two hours.
At this time, they are still nearly 125 kilometers away from Qiha City, which is half the way!
Even if there is no obstruction, under the current weather conditions, it will take about 6 hours to complete the 125 kilometers.
And if they continue to be harassed by human forces like this, it is estimated that 20 hours of walking will not be enough!
It can't let its zombies brave the fire of human chariots without evading. If this is the case, it is estimated that after returning to Qiha City in 6 hours, the zombie troops under it may not even have 300,000 left.
So as soon as the Corpse King was ruthless, he divided 100,000 troops from his zombie army to chase down the human troops who harassed them, and also served as a broken queen.
He continued to go south with 500,000 zombies.
Therefore, Chen Yuan's ruse finally succeeded.
These 100,000 zombies, although Zhang Zeshan and his troops can't eat them for the time being, they still have to be chased by them.
However, with the advantage of speed, they are completely leading the zombies to fight. Like a dog's skin plaster, the zombies chase, and they fight while fleeing. The zombies retreated, and they chased and fought.
The follow-up will always grind away these 100,000 zombies.
As for the 500,000 zombies who are continuing to flee south, Zhang Zeshan and they don't need to chase them anymore.
Because next, they will have another catastrophe before they can return to Qiha City as they wish.
***********
In the area near Shuangshan Town, the mechanized troops of the Self-Rescue Army are constantly circling in circles with the 100,000 zombie troops that are pursuing them. And constantly deplete their living forces, waiting for the opportunity to prepare for a counterattack in one fell swoop.
The remaining 500,000 troops of the main zombie force are still continuing their journey south.
It's just that the zombie army heading south, after arriving near Neihe City, suddenly found a dense blow on the west side of the army.
This is also the chasm that Chen Yuan and the zombie army prepared for them.
It turned out that the troops of 32,000 troops of 16 regiments in Oil City, 12,000 troops of 6 regiments of Shenye Island, plus more than 6,000 garrison regiments and paratrooper regiments left behind by the Self-Salvation Army in the two areas, a total of more than 50,000 troops, had already set up a secret ambush position on the east bank of Nierki Lake in the west of Neihe City.
When the zombie army passed by, they decisively launched a sneak attack on the zombie horde's troops!
With 50,000 human troops, and all of them equipped with new weapons from the Self-Rescue Force, the intensity of firepower can be imagined.
Stunned the Corpse King's troops in one fell swoop! In just a few minutes, the zombie army lost no less than 30,000.
The Corpse King is furious!
However, just as it was about to launch an army of zombies to attack the human positions in the west, it thought about it calmly again, and finally gave up attacking the humans in the west.
Although the human positions here are only very rudimentary trenches, and there are no tall walls, its zombie army can rush up with a single charge.
But the most important thing for now is that it wants to return to Qiha City, regain its strength and wait for next year. At this time, the corpse king was really beaten by the human forces.
If you lose 30,000, you lose 30,000, can't I hide if I can't be provoked!
As a result, the Corpse King controlled his zombie army and began to shrink to the east, deliberately avoiding the human defense line to the west.
But the human forces didn't agree.
At this time, I saw that the zombies began to gather troops to the east. The already bloody and confident human troops on the positions on the lake to the west screamed one by one.
"Damn it, these shitty calves ran away! Hi zombies on the other side, what are you running, aren't you amazing? Isn't the sky not afraid of the earth? There is a kind of fight with Lao Tzu for 300 rounds! An Oil City soldier yelled with an eyebrow raised.
Another soldier from Oil City said with the same joy: "Haha, brothers zombies are scared!" I can't imagine that the zombies have today! That's an army of 500,000 zombies! Last year, we were almost wiped out by 100,000 zombies, but I didn't expect that now the 500,000 zombie army will be scared to retreat when they see us! ”
"It's just, it's fucking relieving!"
This is a new recruit from Oil City who asked, "Veteran, did you really not beat 100,000 zombies last year?" ”
The veteran of the oil city sighed and said: "Yes, last summer we were in the old city, and we were really beaten by 100,000 zombies and almost destroyed the city!" It was a bitter time. We also lost nearly 20,000 men according to the defense of the walls, and many of our brothers were killed. If it hadn't been for the timely arrival of the people from the Iron Castle, we wouldn't be where we are today! ”
The recruit wondered, "How can this change so much?" Last year, I couldn't defeat 100,000 zombies, and this winter, it's only been a year and a half. It's already been able to drive away 500,000 zombies! And with our current firepower, we wouldn't have been beaten like that by 100,000 zombies last year! ”
The veteran said, "You don't know, at the beginning, we didn't have so many troops, let alone such good weapons and equipment. At that time, the fact that the three of us could have a gun was already considered a good armed force among the surrounding forces. And it's the kind of semi-automatic rifle that can shoot one shot at a time. You should know this from somewhere else. ”
The recruit nodded and said, "Yes, when we were in Liuyan Mountain before, an average of 10 people could have a gun, and most of them were homemade earthen guns, pistols and the like. That can't stop the big group of zombies at all. ”
Then the recruit asked incredulously, "How did it develop so quickly?" ”
The veteran smiled and said, "You have only been here for a short time, and you have only been in the army for a few days before you were pulled in to carry out the mission, so you haven't heard about our development history, so it's not surprising that you don't know." ”
The veteran said with reverence: "Actually, all of this, including our current weapons and equipment and the beautiful and safe new oil city, are all brought by the Steel Castle!" Not only did they save us, but they also stayed to help us build and develop the settlement......"
The veteran is preparing to introduce the recruits to the changes that the Iron Keep has brought to the Oil City.
But at this moment, an order from the superior came.
A grassroots officer in Oil City said loudly: "Brothers, the superiors ordered us to take the initiative to attack, and after luring the zombies to attack us, we will retreat to Shenye Island!" So everyone follow me, and then give the zombies a little color to see, rush! ”
"Rush!" I can't help but say that the officers and soldiers of Oil City and Shenye Island, who have already fought confidently, rushed out of their positions one by one and killed the zombie group that was shrinking to the east in the distance!
