Chapter 243 - Before the Great Army Pressed the Border
As early as when the living corpses began to move on a large scale, the scientific research center commissioned the military to send a number of drones to search and investigate the corpses, and recorded their movements through non-stop video recording 24 days a day, hoping to understand why this species would gather such a large group to move outward, and what exactly makes them connect with each other.
After receiving the news, Xie Dongcheng, who was in charge of the study of living corpses and human bodies, kept staring at the movement of the corpses, and Chen Guohao on the side assisted him in constantly modifying the parameters in the image recognition system of the scientific research center.
Zhou Zhiyuan's helicopter took off from the South Naval Port to the provincial capital's international airport to refuel, and then transferred to Seawolf City, and before reaching the base, he let the pilot fly to the top of the corpses and hover at a low altitude.
Zhou Zhiyuan frowned deeply and said: "This number is really very oppressive, it is the first time I have seen such a huge number of things gathered together."
Zhang Hongda smiled reluctantly: "Now I finally see what the million-strong army was like in ancient times!" As long as there are enough people, just standing there and doing nothing can scare your legs."
Zhou Zhiyuan patted his thigh and smiled: "I'm grass, it turns out that you have a phobia of intensity, I want to say it's strange why you become so quiet when you come here."
Zhang Hongda said with a wry smile: "Brother Yuan, don't tease me, how could I know that the visual impact of millions of people huddled together is so shocking, don't you feel it at all?"
Zhou Zhiyuan shook his head and said: "The first thing I thought about when I saw so many living corpses was how to destroy them, and such a huge number in front of me could only be done by using tactical nuclear weapons or large-scale use of weapons with a large killing area such as airburst incendiary bombs."
Zhang Hongda asked curiously: "By the way, did the military say what tactics they want to use to eliminate the corpses?" Or do they just want to transfer personnel, materials, and equipment to Nanhai Province safely?"
At this time, the pilot officer of the helicopter turned around and said: "Sir, the base orders that we must return, they have to fire shells"
Zhou Zhiyuan and Zhang Hongda glanced at each other, each nodded to the pilot officer with doubts, and the helicopter turned around and returned to the base, and at the same time gathered in the battle center with everyone from the core management group for a meeting.
When Zeng Weizhong saw the two of them, he said: "We have to fire a decoy shell first to see if they will trample on each other and kill each other, so as not to accidentally injure you, so we ordered the helicopter to return."
Zhou Zhiyuan nodded: "Well, it sounds like you already have a plan to fight?"
Zeng Weizhong shook his head: "I can only say that there are some ideas that I want to try, if the results are okay, let's kill as much as we can."
Zhou Zhiyuan said with a solemn expression: "According to the previous information on the Internet, the average population of most prefecture-level cities is between three million and eight million, and the six cities in the north alone should have nearly 10 million living corpses in those two prefecture-level cities alone, and the other four cities add up to 8 million, and I can't see the end of this army of nearly 20 million living corpses just a few hundred meters in the sky."
Zeng Weizhong took a deep breath: "I know that when the corpses in the north appeared before, I took a group of officers to observe by helicopter, and I also knew how oppressive that scene was.
Zhou Zhiyuan frowned and said: "I have an immature idea, gather all the artillery and air force to bombard the place where the number of living corpses is most concentrated, wait until the corpse group disperses, and then fire our remaining decoy shells into the middle of the corpse group every once in a while to gather them, and then continue to bombard them in dense places, after repeating it a few times, I believe that it will definitely be able to eliminate a lot."
Zeng Weizhong looked at him and said: "The plan you mentioned is in our plan, and according to the calculation of the battle situation system that Chen Guohao assisted us in revising, among the several attack plans set by everyone, the plan you just mentioned is the least likely to waste ammunition and the most efficient.
Zhou Zhiyuan groaned: "Well, as long as there is no leader-level xenomorph living corpse commander among them, this method should be nine out of ten, but I think how can there be no command corpse group among the tens of millions of living corpses, we should have air force to patrol over them, if the existence of the leader is discovered, it must be killed immediately, otherwise it may be like a few days ago and a large part of it will be taken away with a shout."
Xu Changshan interjected: "What do you think if we find a few sharpshooters to take several helicopters on board, use the sonic reverse detection module in the anti-sniper system on board to search for the leader-level xenomorph living corpse, and then directly shoot it in the head with one shot?"
Zhou Zhiyuan said confidently: "If it is a condescending situation and the assistance of the anti-sniper system, I am confident that my partners and I can find its position and detain the board machine within three seconds."
Xu Changshan nodded: "There are too many requirements to affect shooting on the helicopter, the wind pressure of the helicopter rotor blades, gravity, the shaking of the fuselage, the wind direction outside, etc., this job really has to be done by the people of your wolf special service team, only your brain that seems to have a composite ballistic computer in it can calculate the timing of the plate machine in such a short time."
Zeng Weizhong said in agreement: "Indeed, in such an environment, even if we are given a test firing practice for a while, we will not be able to hit with one shot, and to kill high-level living corpses, a large-caliber sniper rifle with high muzzle velocity and special ammunition must be effective in order to be effective, so more precise calculations are required, and it is impossible for us ordinary people to do such a move no matter how much we practice, I hope that all of you will be able to help later."
Zhou Zhiyuan said with a straight face: "This is incumbent, one less living corpse is more hope, not to mention the more lethal leader level, wait a minute, I will divide the members of our team into a group of two people, so that everyone can just monitor the 180-degree perspective, and Chen Guohao stays on the ground and controls several drones as a backup means of attack, in case we miss, his reaction will be faster than your pilot."
Chen Guohao looked at the tablet and said: "I have just added a bit of attack energy to the image recognition system, and the flight trajectory of the bullet can be calculated under the thermal imaging mode, plus the parameters of the anti-sniper system are synchronously connected and calculated, the drone can also find the approximate location of the target between two seconds and three seconds when the bullet misses, and if it is within the killing range of the missile, it will be launched immediately."
