"Let the troops slowly withdraw from Yunxi Town." On the small hillside outside Yunxi Town, Chen Yuan and the others had been paying attention to the situation on the battlefield, and at this time, seeing that the defense line of the troops had been stabilized and the zombies no longer continued to attack, Chen Yuan gave an order to Liu Jinlong.

He then looked at his watch, which showed that the time was half past nine in the morning, so he continued: "Order the troops to rest in Yunxi Town for an hour, and launch another attack at half past ten. Exit Yunxi Town for lunch before 12 o'clock. ”

"Good!"

So under Liu Jinlong's order, all the troops of the Self-Salvation Army withdrew from Yunxi Town.

The troops returned to their positions north of Yunxi Town. Everyone hurried to replenish ammunition and water, as well as rest.

After waiting for half an hour, they entered Yunxi Town again. Everyone found that the place they had cleaned up before had now been occupied by the zombie hordes and harassing forces again. And so the battle began again.

After a day of fighting, the self-rescue army went back and forth in total, and attacked Yunxi Town a total of 4 times. In total, more than 5,200 zombies were destroyed.

Among them, the number of first ones is the largest. Later, the zombies gradually discovered that this was a human trick, so since the third self-rescue army attacked Yunxi Town, it reduced the number of harassing troops. By the fourth time, the zombie troops had simply completely abandoned the defense of the northern part of Yunxi Town, allowing the self-rescue army to rush to their broken defense line without any resistance. And it doesn't take the initiative either. Only when the Self-Salvation Army begins to advance will it suddenly appear and launch a dense rain of arrows.

In the face of the rain of arrows like locusts, the infantry of the Self-Rescue Army had no way to advance at all, and Chen Yuan didn't want to put the living force of the army here to fight with the zombie hordes. So he ordered the troops to withdraw from Yunxi Town.

But the Self-Salvation Army didn't just walk away.

Before completely ending the day's battle, Chen Yuan ordered the mortar battalion to carry out a carpet bombardment of the zombie defense line that had been interrupted north of Yunxi Town. 80 mortars, 5 salvos, a total of more than 400 shells, completely ploughed the buildings that hid the zombie archers and zombie infantry troops. Large swathes of houses were blown up, caught fire and even collapsed.

Although there is no way to count how many zombies were killed in this shelling for the time being, Chen Yuan estimates that it will definitely not be less.

In this way, although they make the environment in the town more complicated, it is worth it.

At the end of the day's operations, except for a small number of scouts left to continue to monitor Yunxi Town, the troops withdrew to the Iron Fort to rest. On this day, the losses of the self-rescue army were no less serious.

The number of people who died on the spot reached 39, the number of people infected by the enhanced zombie virus was 11, and the number of fighters infected by the normal zombie virus was 153. Most of them were wounded by arrows.

"Fort Chief, why don't we need to besiege Yunxi Town? Don't you care about these zombies breaking through overnight? ”

On the way back, Jiang Wenli asked suspiciously in the officer's channel.

Chen Yuan replied: "Of course I'm not afraid, I still wish they could take the initiative to leave tonight!" Let's not forget what is the ultimate operational goal of our winter offensive. ”

Jiang Wenli replied: "I know all the zombies within 25 kilometers of the Iron Castle. This allows us to guarantee a relatively safe area for the resumption of farming. ”

"That's right." Chen Yuan explained: "Now there is only one last zombie stronghold left in this area, and even if they want to escape, they can only flee out. In fact, the strategic goal of our winter offensive has been achieved. Therefore, as long as they are willing to take the initiative to leave our sphere of influence now, I will not stop them, and I will also set off firecrackers to see them off. ”

Chen Yuan said with a smile: "Now we don't lack that bit of spiritual flesh, if we can, of course there is no need to consume our vital power for these zombies." You must know that many of our new fighters are not yet strengthened by 3 times the level of reinforcement. Nearly four-fifths of today's fallen and wounded fighters are new fighters. Therefore, the shelling I just made was also deliberately intended to scare them away, and it depends on whether they can get on the road. ”

But apparently, Chen Yuan's expectations were disappointed. The zombie horde had no intention of breaking through that night. Perhaps in the eyes of the corpse leader, it is still far from breaking through.

So the next morning, the offensive of the Self-Salvation Army began again.

When the troops regrouped to the north of Yunxi Town, everyone found that here, the zombie group had repaired the city wall that was blown up by the self-rescue army yesterday overnight.

However, after aerial reconnaissance, it was found that the zombies were just in a hurry, and they built a very simple city wall with wooden planks and the like.

So after a burst of shelling, the self-help army began to attack again.

However, this time, it was not waiting for the troops of the Self-Salvation Army to enter Yunxi Town. The intelligence officers responsible for monitoring the movements in Yunxi Town through the cameras on drones and gunships suddenly found that more than a dozen strange machines appeared in Yunxi Town at once. They had just been pushed out of the houses in the town by zombies, so they hadn't been spotted by previous aerial reconnaissance.

"Captain, find the catapult!" An intelligence officer recognized the thing at a glance and immediately reported it to Chen Yuan next to him.

Chen Yuan, on the other hand, immediately issued a reminder to all the units fighting through the communication of all the troops: "All troops should pay attention to the fact that catapults have been found in Yunxi Town, and they have begun to load ammunition, and the attacking troops should pay attention to avoiding the catapults." Helicopter gunships move in to destroy the zombie catapults! ”

"Received on Unit 1!"

"Received on Unit 3!"

The damage caused by the No. 2 gunship in the previous day's battle is still being repaired, so it is not in today's battle sequence.

The two helicopters changed their flight direction, lowered their altitude and flew in the direction of the catapult.

"Da Da Da ......"

The gunship attack soon began, the 25 mm caliber bullets were almost indistinguishable from the artillery shells, and the hit catapult was smashed along with the zombies in operation.

However, there were at least 178 catapults, and the two helicopter gunships had not had time to destroy all of them, and some of them had already successfully completed their loading and projection.

More than a dozen broken walls and concrete blocks flew out, aiming directly at the marching Self-Salvation Army troops outside the town.

"Alert! Alert! Some catapults have already started! Xu Kai immediately alerted the command center.

At the same time, outside Yunxi Town, the officers of various units had also seen the black dots that appeared in the sky, and these black dots were rapidly getting bigger, and they shouted one after another: "Throwing stones!" Lapidation! Beware of concealment! ”

Faced with this situation, the fighters immediately began to look for cover nearby. But the stones thrown by the catapult were already very close to them.
