Chapter 272: What's Going On?

The power of the howitzer is absolutely impossible to ignore, if it is used on people, I am afraid that no one will survive within a radius of 15 meters with its explosion as the center. d t

And this howitzer bombarded the stone road that was filled out of the Xin'an River, and the shrapnel scattered everywhere killed a large number of zombies in an instant.

The violent shock wave made the entire stone road tremble violently, and the section that was bombarded by the howitzer collapsed directly, forming a 10-meter vacuum belt in the middle of the road.

This blow killed at least hundreds of zombies, and if it was placed in modern warfare, it would basically wipe out almost a battalion of other people's troops.

Here, however, the results have only been slightly delayed.

Hundreds of zombies are a drop in the ocean for the terrifying zombie army, and perhaps the only thing that has an effect is this howitzer, which collapsed a 10-meter section of the road.

However, the impact on the corpse tide is not too big, with these lost speed of filling the river and building the road, it only takes 5 minutes to refill this collapsed road.

In other words, their 20 howitzers, even if calculated according to the optimal time, can only delay for 100 minutes at most.

The situation is still not optimistic.

And soon, their faces changed, because the zombies actually started to fill the river and build roads in another place.

Obviously, this is a good way to deal with howitzers, and it doesn't have much effect on the speed of reclaiming the river.

Because when they were filling the river and building the road before, there were nearly half of the zombies, and they wasted time in the process of queuing.

And now, it is only to release this part of the labor force, and it will not have much impact on the original speed.

"Go and get the survivors ready, we're going to have a fight to the death with the zombies later." The corners of Peng De's mouth were a little bitter.

This was pretty much the worst they could have imagined.

When the others heard this, they all nodded solemnly, according to this situation, they would not have time at all, kill these zombies with wisdom, and the other party would be able to build the way.

"Commander, I have a solution. Later, we will leave two howitzers, and when the battle comes, we will concentrate our firepower to kill this part of the intelligent zombies first, and then use the howitzers to collapse the two roads, so that the corpse tide army behind will not be able to pass. Li Bei suddenly patted his head and thought of a way to make up for it.

After hearing Li Bei's words, several regiment leaders immediately nodded one after another, thinking that this method was feasible.

However, the expression on Peng De's face was still serious, he did not answer Li Bei's words directly, but said to the guards on the side: "You go to the staff headquarters to get a real-time battle report, I want to know how many of those intelligent zombies have been killed so far." ”

Hearing Peng De say this, the veterans Wu Hai and Tang Pengyun all showed a solemn look on their faces, because in the more than 20 minutes of battle just now, they also discovered this problem.

It's just that there is no solid data, and I don't know if my observations are correct, so I don't dare to draw conclusions.

Soon the guard sent a real-time battle report to Peng De's hand, Peng De just glanced at it, his eyes became solemn, and he handed this battle report to Li Bei's hand.

"According to the statistics of the General Staff, in the past twenty minutes or so, the number of smart zombies killed on our side is about 4,200 to 4,300, and the number of this kind of smart zombies is about 25,000."

"But now you look at the number of mutated zombies, how many there are." Peng De's brows furrowed tightly, such a thing made him quite puzzled.

Li Bei took the information, looked at it slightly, and his face showed a look of consternation.

Since he can be the head of the regiment, then he must have two brushes. At the very least, it is possible to estimate the number of enemy troops by looking at the situation on the battlefield.

And now that Peng De said this, he took a look at the intelligent zombies in the field, and then he found that even though they had killed a lot of intelligent zombies, their number did not seem to have decreased much.

The number of this kind of intelligent zombies is only 25,000, and if there are really more than 4,000 dead, this is close to one-fifth of the number.

Even an ordinary person should be able to see a significant reduction.

"W-what's going on?" Li Bei's face was full of incomprehension.

"I don't know, maybe I have to ask Ye Feng about this matter. But no matter what, the contact battle with the zombies is inevitable now. ”

"Now all of you go and prepare! I'm afraid this battle will be very difficult, but as long as we support it, Ye Feng will be able to win the final victory if he kills the mutant zombie king. So cheer up the soldiers below. Peng De said solemnly.

Hearing Peng De's words, these officers were worried about this strange scene in front of them. But when they thought of Ye Feng, they couldn't help but have some confidence.

"Hmm!" All the regimental commanders immediately nodded and went down to make arrangements.

Although it is the worst case to let the zombies come and start attacking the city, they have already prepared for this day.

Not to mention anything else, this fifteen-meter-high wall alone has cost them a huge amount of effort, and it is also where their greatest confidence lies.

When the Xin'an City base began to mobilize, Ye Feng also received an inquiry from Peng De.

"Boss, what's going on? I don't think this thing looks weird. Xu Youcai secretly glanced at the information in Ye Feng's hand and asked.

"It's nothing, these zombies don't really have intelligence, but they are just acting under the control of the mutant zombie king's control ability."

"Just like you, your metal manipulation ability, now you've been promoted to Tier 3, and you can manipulate thirty metal objects with precision. And if you do it roughly, you can control 300 metal objects. ”

"Then the reason is the same, the limit of the control of the mutant zombie king is a huge group of 2.5 million corpses. But if he chooses to be precise, he will be able to manipulate 25,000 zombies at will, making them act like humans. Ye Feng explained to Xu Youcai.

Xu Youcai suddenly realized when he heard this, but he was also a little anxious at the same time.

"Then what now, if killing these smart zombies has no effect, the military department doesn't know if it can support it, let's find the mutant zombie king!"

"What's more, we have to wait for the number of mutated zombies to drop to a certain level before we can do it." Xu Youcai suddenly said anxiously.
