Chapter 288: The Formation of the Human Corpse Array

On a May day, the whole wasteland finally returned to an unbearable high temperature of more than 45 degrees, and the scorching sun became more and more unscrupulous under the cloudless sky.

As an improved version of the reconnaissance airship and the X-2 reconnaissance airship, the X-2 reconnaissance airship has become smaller in size and more in line with the needs of reconnaissance under the sophisticated and advanced airship technology. In particular, the strength of the aero-engine department is being strengthened, and the newly designed airship engine is beginning to move in the direction of increasing power, reducing noise, and reducing consumption. The X-2 reconnaissance airship uses an engine specially developed for reconnaissance airships.

The X-2 reconnaissance airship, which is smaller in size and more aerodynamic, is propelled by four engines, and its speed is very terrifying, 210 kilometers, which has broken the record for the fastest speed of an airship in human history.

The X-2 reconnaissance airship still adopts the child-mother method, and its volume is only one-third of the original child-mother airship, but the unmanned reconnaissance aircraft it carries has reached six, which is twice the size of the child-mother reconnaissance airship. The X-2 reconnaissance airship using the catapult launch method does not need to go to the runway, and when it is recovered, it will use the suction cup mode to adsorb the unmanned reconnaissance aircraft into the suction cup, and then recycle it into the cabin, and install it on the catapult frame again under the transmission of the machinery.

The development of the Chamber of Commerce can really be described with each passing day, from the Spring Festival to the present, the comprehensive use of all kinds of talents, the increasingly mature research and development of science and technology, is even faster.

The use of airships by the Chamber of Commerce occupies a very high proportion, and it is basically the airship that supports the operation of the entire Chamber of Commerce. Therefore, the application and research and development of science and technology, the manufacturing and development technology of airships, and the research and development of air force fighters are the same, and they are the two most important scientific and technological research and manufacturing ......

The combination of a large number of reconnaissance airships, unmanned reconnaissance aircraft, air fighter patrol formations, and ground patrol units provides sufficient security for the Chamber of Commerce.

At this time, it had only been in service for less than a week, and the X-2 reconnaissance airship, numbered 003, shuttled lightly through the air of the wasteland. Cruising at a high altitude of 3000, every part of it can be clearly seen from the ground. With only one engine working, almost no noise coming out, and a cruising speed of 60 km/h, it looks laid-back.

The creation of the intelligent system by the Ministry of Information has made these behemoths in the Chamber of Commerce need fewer and fewer airships, and it is almost a fully automatic X-2 reconnaissance airship, but there are only 2 crew members. The intelligent system that Zhou Yuanqiang has been waiting for more than a year is already being tested, and if there is no accident, there is still about half a year to complete all the testing work, become the intelligent core of the Chamber of Commerce, replace more employees, and release more labor.

There are too few people in the last days, and many factories need a large number of laborers, and if you want to solve this problem, you can't do it with money.

Naturally, the intelligent program system that Chen Wenbo has been researching and developing is naturally the first excellent target of the Chamber of Commerce. It is believed that in the near future, the operation of the entire chamber of commerce has begun to enter the era of intelligence, and the factory has intelligent program machine control, and more intelligent applications will give people work, travel, family, etc., important changes.

Intelligent program systems and crystalline energy are all showing people that in the near future, human beings will enter the era of intelligence and new energy. Just like in science fiction movies, all kinds of high-tech have appeared, bringing more changes to human beings...... So the development of the universe, will it be a dream?

Of course, what I said above is a bit too far, and it is a little too far to achieve this.

"The X-2 reconnaissance airship No. 003 arrived at the direction and requested the release of two unmanned reconnaissance aircraft, No. 76 and 77, to carry out the reconnaissance mission, over!"

"The intelligence group 5 received and agreed to release the 76 and 77 numbered unmanned reconnaissance aircraft, and agreed to release the 76 and 77 numbered unmanned reconnaissance aircraft."

"X-2 Reconnaissance Airship 003 received!"

With the end of a group of conversations, on the left side of the X-2 reconnaissance airship pod, two alloy plates slowly landed, and two unmanned reconnaissance aircraft were pushed out, with the ejection, they suddenly broke away from the parent body of the reconnaissance airship, and started the ignition within 0.1 seconds of ejection.

After the launch was completed, the X-2 reconnaissance airship began to slowly rise into the air again, controlling its suspension altitude at an altitude of 6,000 meters, and began to receive instant reconnaissance information from the return of the 76 and 77 unmanned reconnaissance aircraft. And like a transit station, send back to the 5 teams of the Intelligence Department in charge of this reconnaissance airship.

In the early days, an old reconnaissance airship deployed here, when this X-2 reconnaissance airship began to work, it received an order and began to return home. After a week's reconnaissance mission, it has reached its maximum hovering time, and it must return to the Chamber of Commerce's airship manufacturing plant for overhauls and replenishment of lost helium.

The 77 number unmanned reconnaissance aircraft can reach a speed of 630 kilometers per hour, but its small size makes its endurance very poor, and the duration will not be long. It can only be suitable for carrying out tasks on a reconnaissance airship in the shape of a child and mother, and use the endurance and durability of the airship to make up for its shortcomings.

The Aircraft Research and Design Department is already developing a new unmanned reconnaissance aircraft, and will consider using the intelligent program system of the Ministry of Information, with a design target range of up to 15,000 km. This is no small challenge for the aircraft research and design department. Moreover, the new concept reconnaissance technology in the design also needs to be tackled, in short, it is full of difficulties.

This is about 400 kilometers east of Qingyuan City, which is the junction of the wasteland and the mountains, and the wasteland here, strictly speaking, cannot be regarded as a wasteland, and it is more appropriate to call it a grassland. When spring comes, the grass here is green, like a grassland. And the farther mountains, the verdant trees, and the endless stacks of peaks, form a huge mountain range.

This mountain range is somewhat similar to the large mountain range that leads to Tianzhou City, but here it is more extensive, spanning nearly 200 kilometers. It also serves as the gateway to Maple Town, where a railroad and several highways traverse the Grand Range. Tower-like high-voltage power lines appear on the peaks of the mountains from time to time. From time to time, you can see villages in the mountains that have been ruined.

The speed of the No. 77 unmanned reconnaissance aircraft is not threatening, but it is moving forward at cruising speed. It flew over the green meadows like grasslands, and the zombies below roamed like the waves of the sea. And a highway in this location, like a drain outlet, countless zombies moved on the highway, and they surged towards the wasteland. On the highways, in the mountains and forests, they are everywhere.

The reconnaissance plane's cameras are working, filming everything below, and using the communication system carried by the reconnaissance airship itself, transmitting these images.

The unmanned reconnaissance aircraft that appeared in the sky above this highway and flew at an altitude of only 600 meters was of course noticed by the zombies below. Some crawling jets and electrocution corpses attacked. What's even more unexpected is that a new type of long-range zombie that appeared on the highway, its size is comparable to that of the electrocuted corpse, with a row of bone spurs behind it, and in the face of the unmanned reconnaissance aircraft flying by, one of the bone spurs soared into the sky like an arrow.

The astonishing speed is not known how many times faster than the liquid mass and the electric release ball, and the range is very long, and it flew behind the unmanned reconnaissance plane dangerously, and rushed straight up to nearly 1,500 meters before stopping the momentum of the upward rush. Then this strange bone arrow actually cracked and exploded like an anti-aircraft cannon, and the bone fragments flew like stray bullets.

As the reconnaissance plane reconnoitred all the way, it brought endless commotion on the entire highway. In this endless mountain range, there is no end to the zombies on the road, and no one knows how many of these zombies there are and how long they are along the road.

The unmanned reconnaissance aircraft, numbered 77, lost contact at a distance of 270 kilometers from the reconnaissance airship. From the last footage, it seemed that something flew over it, and under the impact, it fell to the ground and was destroyed.

Of course, this intelligence immediately attracted the attention of the intelligence departments, because the crash of this unmanned reconnaissance plane was not caused by the ground, but by the air. Could it be that zombies are beginning to have the ability to control power in the air? This matter is a bit serious, and this is definitely a new challenge and crisis for mankind.

Like the movement at the junction of the wasteland and the mountains, the intelligence department has been paying attention to it for half a month.

In the past half a month, zombies have been constantly transporting zombies from the back to the border of the wasteland. On the edge of the junction, a large wasteland is occupied by zombies, and their number is constantly increasing, from nearly 10 million zombies gathered before, to nearly 30 million now. And not only that, there are endless zombies in the rear, turning this place into a real sea of zombies.

Thanks to the reconnaissance airship, the entire mountain range can be included in the reconnaissance, and even the distance of 300 kilometers after crossing the mountain range with a depth of more than 200 kilometers is also within the surveillance range of the reconnaissance airship. If you are a member of the intelligence department, you will understand how shocking the information you have detected.

More than 100 million zombies poured towards the wasteland, starting from various cities and towns, constantly converging into a stream, through the wasteland, through the railway lines, through the roads, through the mountains. The place where the reconnaissance airship went, there were all groups of moving zombies, endless, and it was definitely the most terrifying zombie offensive in the last days.

All kinds of zombies began to appear on the stage and show themselves in front of the intelligence department, and there were even some zombies who didn't know what it was capable of.

The tree wants to stop but the wind does not stop, the Chamber of Commerce is hesitating to attack the zombies in front, and now there is no need to make a choice, because the Chamber of Commerce has no choice, in the face of the zombies gathered, you can also know with your toes that the formation of this zombie tide, they will sweep across the wasteland and advance towards the west. It is very likely that after sweeping everything, it will appear in front of the Lanxi Plateau Alliance.

Hundreds of millions of zombies, what is this concept, no one has ever seen so many people together, and today, people will be fortunate to be able to see hundreds of millions of zombies gathered in what it is like.

After more than a dozen reconnaissance airships arrived at this place one after another, finally the largest picture scroll in the last days slowly unfolded in front of people.

The entire junction is full of zombies, and they occupy a front line hundreds of kilometers wide and hundreds of kilometers long at the junction, leaning on the edge of the big mountain range. As the zombies continue to increase, they begin to move towards the wasteland little by little, devouring everything for kilometers every day. In the big mountains, among the mountains and forests, there are all traces of zombies, and the roads are crowded with moving zombies, even on the long railway line, there are countless zombies moving along the railway.

For hundreds of kilometers in a row, there are groups of zombies, and their goal is to constantly pour into the wasteland and devour it little by little.

There is no doubt that this time the largest gathering in the history of zombies, it is not necessarily aimed at Qingyuan City and Tianzhou Plain, but it is safe to say that according to their direction, Qingyuan City will definitely bear the brunt and become the first victim of hundreds of millions of zombies.

The only thing that is fortunate is that the efforts of the intelligence department, as early as half a month ago, began to notice the increasing number of zombies, and judged the information they were gathering. The only mistake may be that there is a big difference in the estimation of the number of their assemblies.

According to the analysis results of the intelligence department and the analysis department, it is believed that the zombies gathered this time will be less than 150,000.

The lack of experience and the lack of records to learn from will make the two departments make mistakes in judgment at the same time. The number of zombies began to increase sharply half a month ago, and millions of zombies appeared on the border of the Great Wasteland every day, and in just half a month, more than 30 million zombies gathered here. But that's not all, the endless zombies in the rear are still moving, and it is initially estimated from reconnaissance that the number may exceed 100 million.

As soon as this conclusion came out, the shock to the upper echelons of the Chamber of Commerce can be imagined, and everyone lost their smiles in an instant.

Of course, it is impossible for such shocking news to be disclosed to ordinary people, and the people who know this news are only a dozen or so people in the upper echelons of the Chamber of Commerce and some personnel from the two departments of intelligence and analysis. Because the Chamber of Commerce is afraid that under this news, the panicked people will flee desperately in the face of such a large number of zombies.

No one would have thought that the Chamber of Commerce would be able to stop such a large number of zombies.

The number was determined, and the war machine of the Chamber of Commerce had to go all out, and a large number of orders suddenly filled up various private enterprises. In the order signed by Zhou Yuanqiang himself, the military priority regulations were implemented, and the Chamber of Commerce was officially declared to enter a quasi-war state, reducing trade exports to other settlements, increasing the intensity of procurement of materials, and all companies and individuals served the military.

The Chamber of Commerce has activated the state of war several times, so it did not cause much panic, and the explanation of the Chamber of Commerce's speech department to the public is to recover the state of war initiated by Jianning City, which is 400 kilometers east of Qingyuan City, and requires all the people not to be too frightened, and the Chamber of Commerce has the ability to protect all citizens under its rule.

In mid-May, the first batch of ground troops began to set off, and they would form a front three hundred kilometers away from Qingyuan City to stop the advance of the zombies.

The military department is also a defensive strategic plan based on the current strength of the Chamber of Commerce, because even if all the reserves of ammunition are consumed, all the fighters are dispatched, and the airships are loaded with bombs, at most five to sixty million zombies can be sent to hell, and the rest of the zombies can only be completed by the ground forces.

However, the ground forces are very at a loss in attacking the zombies, so they must build a front to form a stop against the zombies and form a defensive counterattack.

The powerful industrial system of the Chamber of Commerce played a role at this moment, and a large number of transport airships began to move some cement, steel and other materials to the front line. A large number of machines were transported at the same time, and the construction of trenches and various fortifications began, and a wall only 3 meters high appeared in the wasteland, which would be the biggest obstacle to the zombies' advance.

If you want to defend against zombies, you are destined to have this wall hundreds of kilometers long, which is basically no different from building a road.

The only difference is that, due to the tense situation, the construction of this wall will be built by nearly 200,000 people, with a lot of mechanical help, and a mixture of cement and sand and gravel, which can be poured for several kilometers in a moment. This method of irrigation construction, which does not require great attention to quality, is almost completed in just one and a half weeks, and the hundreds of kilometers of wall.

In the operation of the steel mill, countless barbed wire fences were made, arranged in front of the wall with three layers inside and three layers outside. The trenches dug in front of the walls will slow down the movement of zombies.

The artillery manufactured by various arsenals was officially arranged in the rear of the front, forming a huge artillery group. This artillery group, also deployed along the wall, will be able to form a covering bombardment of targets up to 20 kilometers away, unleashing the wrath of the horrible king of war.

A large number of armored vehicles have been deployed to the front line, and they will form an armored force with the Sand Snake tanks, which have been increased to fifty, to snipe zombies.

The flat terrain of the wasteland was simply built, and a huge helicopter gunship was built. Hundreds of helicopter gunships will arrive at the front line, and it will also form a forward transit point for military supplies, shortening the distance of supplies.

A large number of cars shuttled on the front line and the highway of Qingyuan City, and nearly 100 transport airships were busy in the sky.

With the arrival of the second, third, and fourth groups of soldiers, the entire front has gathered 150,000 troops from the entire Chamber of Commerce, who will defend in sections on the front, build more fortifications, deploy more mines, and build more barbed wires, so as to improve this front between humans and corpses.

In order to survive the heaviest crisis in the history of the last days, the Chamber of Commerce had to start expanding the ground forces, and from the manpower that was no longer available, the emergency recruitment method was once again activated and 50,000 recruits were replenished.

Their combat ability may not be as good as that of soldiers who have been trained for more than a year, but which of the last Lang'er is not an excellent pig corpse? Therefore, to become a soldier, there is no shortage of marksmanship, what is lacking is the ability to execute some orders and formations.

In June, the front of human beings and zombies was officially formed, and the footsteps of zombies seemed to have moved hundreds of kilometers outside the line.
