"Bump", the sound of artillery fire sounded, and on the Taiji artificial island a few kilometers away from the new city, a 155-mm self-propelled artillery vehicle fired a guided artillery shell used to lure living corpses.

After the shell leaves the barrel, the self-adjusting wings located in the front and tail of the projectile body are extended, and after gliding to the target area through the kinetic energy of the propellant, the guidance module of the head and tail begins to separate autonomously, so that the projectile separation device in the warhead shoots two cylindrical terminally sensitive warheads out of two different directions, and then the parachute device of the two warheads is opened, and the microcomputer and sensor begin to analyze and calculate the height and position.

The round metal cans with parachutes began to descend slowly, and when they reached a height of about 30 meters above the ground, the green indicator light at the bottom switched to a red light signal and the entire missile body was immediately detonated, and a red blood mist formed a circle with the kinetic energy generated by the air explosion and flew out at 360 degrees to the periphery, and a small crimson shower fell over the entire forest park.

At this time, Xu Changshan picked up the radio and said: "The shell has been detonated in the sky above the forest park, and then let's see if the decoy is successful in half an hour or forty minutes, my artillery observation drone here has ejected and taken off, it will be responsible for staring at that large area of the old city, and your small rotary-wing drone will look at the new city."

Zhou Zhiyuan tapped the headset and replied: "Well, we will synchronize the image of the battlefield to the battle situation system here, as long as the nearby living corpses start large-scale operations, we will set off at the same time."

Xu Changshan said in a confident tone: "When the time comes, I will divide the troops into two ways and carry out it simultaneously, thirty amphibious expeditionary combat vehicles will go over to meet you, and the number of survivors at the Provincial Police Headquarters will be relatively large and need to use military cards, I will personally lead the team to meet and escort them back to the island."

The amphibious expeditionary combat vehicles of the Marine Corps can carry up to 20 people, and there are about 100 people in Zhou Zhiyuan's mansion community, and the number of 30 vehicles is just enough to carry all the survivors at one time, and the number of survivors at the provincial police headquarters is a little more than 700 people, so Xu Changshan led the armored troops to escort all the military transport trucks to pick them up.

More than half an hour later

Chen Guohao pointed to the screen on the computer and said, "Look, the living corpses in the city have started to run past the forest park!" I calculated that the farthest point was more than six kilometers away, and it seems that my decoy shell was a success!"

Xie Dongcheng looked at the screen and frowned, "The living corpses seem to be running faster now than they usually do when they hear sounds or see creatures, which shows that the smell of blood is still the biggest thrill for them."

Zhou Zhiyuan patted the two of them on the shoulder and said: "We should also prepare, Taiji Island is only a few minutes' drive from here, and the military should have set off by now."

The group directed all the survivors in the community to go to the parking lot on the first floor of the basement, and the military's amphibious expeditionary combat vehicle formation will enter through the exit on the north side of the parking lot for safety reasons, drive to the first floor of the basement, fill all the space on the car, and then leave again and again from the south side of the parking lot, and return along the central avenue of the new city, while only artillery is left on the Taiji artificial island ready for fire support at any time.

At the same time, Xu Changshan led an armed convoy composed of various armored vehicles to the provincial police headquarters to pick up another group of survivors, because there were many police armored vehicles and ambulances in the unit, so a lot of trouble was saved in the process of transportation, and the military basically only fulfilled the responsibility of armed escort, and the means of transportation were provided by the police themselves, and it didn't take long for this way to start returning.

More than 2,000 local survivors were first arranged in a combination house on the construction site, fortunately, the construction manpower of this tourism investment project was quite sufficient, otherwise many people would have to sleep on the floor to blow the sea breeze, and in the temporary command tent set up by the military, the members of the wolf special service team were having the next strategic meeting with the commander of the expeditionary strike group.

Xu Changshan said to everyone: "The only entrance and exit to this island is the bridge with a wide road, and I have ordered that remote control explosives be installed on each pier on it, and if the corpses invade in a big way, we will blow the bridge into the sea and leave by boat."

Zhou Zhiyuan said lightly: "Actually, this place is actually quite defensible at the moment, as long as a few armored assault vehicles equipped with 7.62 mm caliber rotary machine guns and 12.7 mm caliber heavy machine guns can block the bridge deck with a high rate of fire and high penetrating crossfire, it is very effective in my experience of blocking the corpse fauna in the tunnel last time."

Xu Changshan chuckled: "Hey, I never thought about defending this bridge, the most important thing is how to slaughter all the living corpses in this provincial capital, this is the main purpose of my troops this time!"

Zhou Zhiyuan said eloquently: "Judging from the results of the decoy shells just now, I have an idea, the location of this artificial island is just the best artillery position to attack the city, from here we can shell any part of the city, we only need to fire decoy shells at all the large open areas in the provincial capital, and then all the large-scale weapons of destruction of the army, navy and air force will be hailed to that area, not to mention that we can also deal with more than 100,000 or 200,000 living corpses."

Chen Guohao projected his own computer screen: "According to the effective distance of 6 kilometers of decoy shells, there are several large open areas in this city that meet our tactical needs, almost all of them are parks with large artificial lakes or construction sites of large industrial parks, and if these places have the effect of decoy shells at the same time, there is at least an 80% chance that they can attract living corpses in the whole city."

Xu Changshan said in agreement: "Well, then it seems that the existing 24 self-propelled guns alone cannot constitute a complete coverage of firepower, as you said, it is necessary to increase the number of artillery and the support of naval guns, plus the air force of the air force to have a way."

Zhou Zhiyuan shook his head and said: "In fact, it is not necessary to support the air force, after all, the cost of an aerial bomb is much higher than a shell, we can take our time from position to position, first draw out all the living corpses in this area and then change to the next area, with the fire salvo of 24 guns should be able to form a firepower coverage area."

Xu Changshan nodded and said: "Well, the navy will have 12 fixed howitzers and 6 multiple rocket launchers to transport on the next trip, and I personally because they not only have to guard against the millions of corpses in the north, but also have more than 100,000 survivors to protect, so I don't really want to use the force and equipment of the navy and air force to fight this battle."
