Chapter 224: Burning the Zombies
It doesn't know anything about Shen Bai and the troops, so it will use this way of fighting, so it drags on and continues to fight a war of attrition, as long as it waits until the early hours of the morning passes, all the ammunition consumed by the soldiers will be replenished and restored to its original state.
If the corpses swarmed up regardless of the crowd as soon as they came up, Shen Bai would have an even greater headache, because even if the soldiers used up all the bullets and guaranteed that each bullet could kill a zombie, they would not be able to kill all the more than 100,000 zombies, and the number of bullets would not be enough at all.
"It's best to keep going until ...... morning"
Shen Bai hadn't figured out at this time, how much wisdom that mysterious intelligent zombie had, and did it retain its memories of life? Or did you evolve into a new species and awaken a new consciousness?
However, no matter which one it is, it is impossible for the other party to know the secrets of the soldiers, and I am afraid that in its concept, it is believed that the bullets on this side of the base will run out sooner or later......
The gunfire never stopped, not only on the west and south walls, but soon there were zombies on the north walls.
Alice was temporarily ordered to lead several groups of soldiers to the north to support.
Half an hour later, the gunfire finally stopped.
"Hoo ......"
Shen Bai let out a sigh of relief, put down the automatic rifle in his hand, which was a little hot from the barrel, and looked out of the wall.
At this time, the road outside the fence was full of zombie corpses, almost completely covering the road, and the black blood stains looked extremely dazzling under the strong light.
"Reports from various locations. Count the number of zombies killed and the amount of ammo consumed. ”
Shen Bai, who had a moment to breathe, immediately ordered.
A moment later, Empress Bai summarized statistics through satellites, and a more detailed and accurate data was collected to Shen Bai's side.
By the end of the previous battle, the soldiers had shot about 30,000 zombies, including nearly 1,000 T2 zombies, and consumed a total of more than 60,000 rounds of ammunition.
On average, every two bullets can kill a zombie, which is very high in terms of efficiency alone.
However, Shen Bai was not happy at this time.
Because he knows very well that this is just the beginning.
The loss of 30,000 zombies is only less than one-third of the battle damage for a group of corpses with a total number of more than 100,000.
Obviously, the other side is trying to consume the base's ammunition reserves as much as possible.
"This guy is really cunning enough."
Shen Bai couldn't help but sigh.
In fact, it also succeeded.
Shen Bai's self-provided ammunition is already half left, and at this rate, the base will soon run out of ammunition and food.
Shen Bai raised his wrist and looked at the time on his watch.
It was just after nine o'clock, and it was still a long time before the soldiers' ammunition was refreshed at twelve o'clock in the morning.
Frowning, Shen Bai said to Ada Wang through the satellite in his consciousness: "Prepare for the second phase of the operation. ”
With Shen Bai's order, dozens of soldiers went down from the wall, and after a while, they each carried the water pipe back to the wall.
Fire water cannons are installed at the heads of these water pipes, and fire trucks are connected to the end of the water pipes.
The water tanks of these fire trucks are not filled with water, but with gasoline.
Fuel oil, an extremely scarce and precious resource in the last days, is even more valuable than food due to its non-renewable nature.
Gasoline still has many roles in the last days, moving vehicles, running diesel generators, heating, cooking food, and even eliminating odors.
For Shen Bai, who has a large number of soldiers and a large number of vehicles to form a convoy every time he travels, the demand for diesel gasoline is quite large.
But at this moment, Shen Bai couldn't care about it so much.
How to defend against the attack of the corpses is now the most important thing.
"All soldiers, from now on, save as much ammunition as possible, and only target the threatening T2 zombies, ordinary zombies can be left alone for the time being."
Ordinary zombies have nothing to do in the face of the three-meter-high wall, and there is no problem in ignoring it for the time being, only T2 and T3 zombies will pose a threat to the wall.
After two consecutive attacks, the corpse group has not yet made the next move.
Taking advantage of this gap, the soldiers turned on the fire water cannon, and gasoline gushed out of it, pouring it on the pile of zombies under the walls of the base.
The corpses of more than 30,000 zombies can be said to be all over the field, especially under the wall, the piled corpses have even formed small hills.
If left unchecked, sooner or later the corpses will pile up as high as a wall. At that time, the height advantage of the fence will also be gone.
Under the spray of high-pressure water cannons, the strong smell of gasoline spreads in the air.
Shen Bai did not rush to light the fire immediately, but waited quietly.
He didn't wait long, and after about ten minutes, another group of corpses began to attack in a big way.
This time, the corpses did not attack from three directions at the same time as before, but all gathered at the main gate, and the number of visual measurements was far more than 10,000, but I don't know if it reached more than 20,000.
Perhaps the intelligent zombie also discovered that the corpses of the zombies were piled higher and higher, and wanted to use the corpses to pile up alive to build a bridge that led directly to the interior of the base.
The corpses gradually approached, but the soldiers did not fire en masse, but only occasionally shot and killed the T2 zombies that stood out from the corpses and quickly rushed towards the base.
Shen Bai slowly lit a cigarette and calmly looked at the group of corpses that were gradually approaching.
When a large number of corpses were only more than thirty meters away from the base, Shen Bai flicked his fingers and flew the burning cigarette butts out.
A faint spark, so faint in the glare of a large number of searchlights.
However, when the cigarette butt falls off the fence, the next moment ......
"Boom-"
The flames that soared into the sky rose in an instant.
It was dry and hot today, cloudless, and with a large amount of gasoline with a very low ignition point, it was just a blink of an eye, and the front of the base turned into a sea of fire and swallowed up all the corpses.
In fact, zombies are very afraid of fire, and the corpses of zombies themselves are highly decomposed, with little moisture, and can easily be ignited.
But in actual combat, not many people will directly use fire attacks to deal with zombies, because the burning of flames will not kill zombies instantly, especially normal burning flames, which usually last for a long time to burn the zombies' bodies.
During this time, the zombies can still move, and they can even fight back against the attackers without feeling any pain.
Zombies are afraid of fire, people are also afraid of fire, if a zombie covered in fire pounces on an ordinary survivor, the consequences are also very serious.
But at this time, Shen Bai was not worried about this situation.
Separated by a three-meter-high wall, the corpses could not reach the soldiers above the wall, so they could only struggle in vain in the flames and were eventually burned to ashes.
In addition, incineration is also the best way to effectively dispose of the corpses, the corpses of these zombies have been severely decomposed and smelly, if left unattended, it is likely to cause a plague, which can be regarded as killing multiple birds with one stone.
The raging fire stopped the group of corpses behind before they had time to step forward, completely isolating the base from the corpses.
"Commander, there's not much gasoline left, and it's all in stock just now, except for the amount that must be left behind for the driving of the vehicle."
Ida Wang reported to Shen Bai.
Shen Bai nodded slightly. "I see."
In order to be able to ignite the entire area and isolate the zombies, Shen Bai had to put in a lot of gasoline to support the combustion, and according to this fire, it should be able to last for a while.
It's just that when the flames are extinguished, the corpses will probably have a bigger counterattack.
"Hurry up and trim, we don't have much time." Shen Bai said.
This wave of fire can burn at least more than 10,000 zombies to death, plus the 30,000 zombies shot earlier, there are nearly 60,000 corpses.
At this time, more than half of the ammunition on the base side is consumed, and the gasoline in reserve is also used, and the next battle will undoubtedly be more difficult.
"Damn, haven't you drawn the right props yet?"
Seeing that there were already more than three hundred cards in his hand, Shen Bai's brows furrowed slightly.
No way, it's still a bunch of broken soldier cards, not even like snipers and super soldiers, all black watch soldiers and umbrella mercenaries.
