Chapter 160: Nightmare
The tragedy of the battle is beyond imagination, after all, the current soldiers have not experienced war, although some zombies have been killed after the outbreak of the virus, but now this kind of large-scale battle, especially such a tragic battle, has made some changes in the hearts of many soldiers, although they will not escape, but the morale has dropped a little.
Boom, boom, boom cannon sound again, the first wave of corpses were bombed, there was basically not much left left, several teams of fighters led by the evolutionary rushed into the battlefield, using cold weapons such as knives and tomahawks to kill the remaining zombies and reduce the loss of ammunition.
The outbreak of melee combat cannot avoid death, and some ordinary warriors are still scratched by zombies because they are not careful, and their choice is to use all the ways they can to die with the zombies. Some warriors have evolved in battle, although they have just evolved and are not too familiar with their own abilities, but the balance of victory and defeat on the battlefield has begun to tilt in favor of humans.
In the face of changes on the battlefield, Shahai still has no other orders to give, this is a process that must be experienced, if you don't experience the flames of war, you will never grow, and the rest of the soldiers will definitely be elites.
Morale is improved after a warrior becomes an evolutionary, and after evolution, not only the status and treatment are improved, but the most important thing is that there is a greater guarantee for survival, and an evolutionary will at least not have a threat to his life when facing ordinary zombies.
"Withdraw the people, and then face another horde of corpses." The sea of sand finally made people retreat.
Countless corpses were piled up on the battlefield, which greatly hindered the movement of the corpses that caught up, but this was conducive to the impact of artillery shells.
After several rounds of artillery fire were covered, after the last artillery shells were used to blow up the hillside, Shahai decisively ordered to assemble, everyone retreated 10 miles, and sent people to report the situation to the military region, waiting for the next order.
The explosion of the hillside caused the road to be blocked, and many zombies under the cliff on the side were squeezed down, but fortunately, there were no people in this vicinity, and it was also very difficult to get out of the cliff, so that the sand sea had time to rest.
Despite being exhausted, Shahai still arranged for the soldiers to take duty to prevent the corpses from pursuing, but fortunately, the corpses had nothing to do with the sand and gravel blocking the road for the time being, so that the warriors had a precious time to rest.
However, the next day, the ammunition did not wait, but another group of corpses had rushed to the settlement site and broke the defense of the three regiments. And the reason is because there are too many evolutionary zombies in the second corpse group, and because a large number of heavy weapons are given to Shahai them, the three regiments are slightly deficient in defense, so that the corpse group gets a chance.
Now that the corpse group is about to threaten the military region, the high commander's order is Shahai and the first regiment, and the second regiment will attack the corpse group from the flank and contact the threat of the military region.
Listening to the order, Shahai only felt a burst of weakness, ammunition was in short supply, people were sleepy and horses were scarce, and it was a smooth road from the national highway, so that these nearly a thousand soldiers had to face more than 20,000 zombies, and I don't know how many people were left who survived in the end. However, the military order is like a mountain, and it is extremely dangerous compared to the military region now, otherwise the high commander would not have ordered them to turn back.
The order to return reinforcements was quickly issued to the various commanders, and there were no complaints, no complaints, everyone silently packed up the only remaining weapons and ammunition, and with a sound of advance, everyone turned back to the military district.
The battle at the settlement site was far more tragic than on the side of the national highway, and they were covered by cannonballs in the sand sea, and a large number of corpses were killed, but the terrain of the settlement site was open, the corpses were scattered, and the effect of using cannonballs was far less than that of the national highway, and under the leadership of the evolved zombies, the zombies who split the sky and the earth sniffed the moving smell and carried out a fatal impact on the resettlement site.
As a result, the three regiments and the special combat team fought with the zombies all day long, and the decline in physical fitness made the soldiers' accuracy and concentration in shooting a little lower, and in the end, they could only abandon the resettlement point and retreat to the military region, relying on the temporary fence built by the military region and the defensive positions lined up with obstacles such as cars to fight back.
When they arrived outside the military area, they could have used artillery shells to strike, but these zombies who didn't know the pain rushed in wave after wave made the ammunition a little insufficient, and they had already rushed to the front of the fortifications, and then using shells, not only would the fortifications be damaged, but even the walls would be affected.
Therefore, the cannonballs can only attack from a long distance now, but the zombies on the periphery are really scattered and can't hit too well.
Lian Yu appeared on the front line with all the people of the special combat team, and tried every means to stop the impact of the corpses, but the number of evolutionary zombies was far greater than that of the evolutionaries on the human side, so that the special combat team had casualties from the next day.
After more than a day of hard fighting, the number of corpses was still nearly 10,000, but the ammunition of the military region began to run out of urgency, and the ammunition was one less bullet, and the shells could not be effective. A large number of flamethrowers are used on the battlefield and have achieved good results, but this is a weapon used at close range, casualties are inevitable, and once a person dies, the flamethrower will inevitably not be able to get it back, some soldiers even broke the fuel tank themselves before dying, rushed into the corpses with fire, and burned a lot of zombies.
However, the flamethrower is not a standing weapon after all, and there are really not many of them, so far there are only more than 10 left, and in the face of a large number of corpses, it can play a very small role.
At noon, leaning on the wall, the zombies could not rush in for the time being, and the survivors of the resettlement site moved to the military area were also uneasy, and all they heard in their ears were the roars of zombies, and everyone was terrified to the extreme.
The team of the sand sea has rushed to the edge of the battlefield and began to strike at the zombies on the periphery, they are divided into several groups, each of which has the presence of evolutionaries, intending to cut through the entire battlefield.
After contacting the military region, the two sides began to exert their efforts at the same time, and after paying an extremely tragic price, the two sides successfully met. Although a lot of ordinary zombies were killed, there were still a lot of evolutionary zombies that ran away. In this battle, only half of Shahai's special combat team fought, and a third of the first regiment remained, while the second regiment only had a few small soldiers left, from the regiment commander to the company commander and platoon commander, all of them died in the united force.
The grief filled the entire military region, and the comrades-in-arms who had been training together two days ago were separated in the blink of an eye, and many soldiers wept bitterly, and even Sha Hai, a resolute veteran, shed tears.
Just when the whole army was resting, the nightmarish news came again, and the second group of corpses on the side of the national highway was only 5 kilometers away from the military district.
The military region is about to usher in another hard battle, this time, there are more corpses than yesterday, can they still hold on?
And at this time, Su Yang also returned to the high-tech zone and received his next task.
