Chapter 179: Dense Line of Fire
The loud roar, the torn body and internal organs, the stumps and severed arms flew around, this scene was like a hellish scene.
In the face of this tide of corpses, the power of artillery is obviously obvious, and every time the cannon falls, it can kill a lot of corpse monsters.
If the base has enough artillery and shells, maybe they can hold the base without their help.
Under the bombardment of artillery fire, in the billowing smoke and dust, the corpse monsters continued to surge as if they could not be killed.
From a distance, it was full of dense figures, which made people's scalps tingle.
About twenty or thirty shots were fired, the roar stopped, and the artillery was completely extinguished, as if the shells had been exhausted.
However, after a round of bombing, more than thousands of corpse monsters were killed, which also reduced a lot of pressure on everyone.
It's a pity that this kind of thermal weapon kills monsters, and there is almost no evolutionary power, otherwise this number of corpse monsters can give birth to one or two strong people.
"Shoot!"
Commander Chen saw that the monster had entered the firing range and decisively ordered to shoot
The sound of gunfire was continuous, the bullets were intertwined into a barrage, and the siege seemed to be a monster with a line of fire, turning the corpses in front of them into monsters, falling one by one.
The soldiers of the army know how to cooperate with each other, and the dense firepower network makes it impossible for the corpse monsters in front of them to break through the defense line.
Pulling the trigger of the motor gun seems simple, but in this fierce battle, the tension of the spirit will also consume a huge amount of energy.
However, the ammunition at the base is insufficient, and this kind of intensive fire suppression obviously cannot last long.
And as the corpse monsters that appear become more and more powerful, the lethality of ordinary bullets is limited, and they can't shoot through the monster's head.
Only a few heavy machine guns, with the power of large-caliber bullets, were able to tear through the defenses of powerful corpse monsters and shatter their bodies.
Everyone knows very well that as the monsters become more and more powerful, the bullets will also fail one day, and the reliable weapon to block the zombies has become an ornament, which is a great test for future survival.
The corpse monster was not afraid of death at all, and under the bullets like a rainstorm, it killed the human base.
The dense firepower network tore up nearly a thousand corpse monsters, but those corpse monsters didn't care about the death of their kind at all, they just wanted to eat fresh flesh and blood.
Although the soldiers tried their best to strafe, it was still difficult to stop the army of corpse monsters from approaching.
The main thing is that the corpse monsters have tenacious vitality, and if they don't blow their heads, it's basically difficult to kill.
Often a few bullets, or even dozens of bullets, can kill a corpse-transformed monster.
The survivors in the base trembled when they heard the incessant sound of gunfire and artillery fire.
They understand that once the base is breached, no one can escape and become food for those monsters.
The entire survivor base seems to have turned into a place of despair with the arrival of the corpse tide.
The surviving people can only pray silently, hoping that the soldiers who fought bloodily will be safe and the officials can protect this place.
"Relax, your muscles will tense up after a while, and you will have no strength later, how will you kill monsters in a while?"
An elderly man looked at the young man next to him, holding a machete tightly, and kindly reminded him.
"Uncle, aren't you afraid?"
When the young man came back to his senses, he found that his palms were full of sweat, so he quickly wiped them to relieve his emotions.
"Afraid? Of course, I'm just as scared as you are. ”
The elderly man sighed.
"Actually, you don't have to come, just fight for us young people."
The young man said that this battle was voluntary, and those who were afraid of death could stay in the base.
"Young man, don't look at my age, do you know what it means to be old and strong? Maybe you're not as strong as I am."
"Although it is dangerous to participate in the battle and it is very likely to die, at least after two full meals yesterday, I will not be a starving ghost"
The elderly man smiled lightly, he was not as afraid of death as he was, his family died in the disaster, and death might be a relief for him.
Those who volunteered to fight, in addition to a machete each, had a food supplement for several days.
And even if there is a death, the family can also receive a batch of material compensation, and many men and even women also participate in the fighting.
These people still have relatives, and they can only fight for their future lives.
But even so, the number of people involved in the battle was less than 500.
Under the dense firepower, a large number of corpse monsters fell down like wheat.
After a few minutes, the gunfire on the fence gradually thinned out, and it was clear that the bullets were about to run out.
Before the disaster, Commander Chen's troops were only passing through here, and the reserves of ammunition they brought out were not much, and when the base was established, a lot of them were also used.
In today's environment, there is no way to make bullets without materials.
In the absence of logistical supplies, in a matter of minutes, almost all the ammunition reserves were hit.
The base ran out of ammunition, killing about 5,000 corpse monsters, and more than 5,000 corpse monsters, rushing towards everyone.
And the people who can participate in the battle in the base are only more than 500 people, and on average, each person has to face more than a dozen corpse monsters.
Although there don't seem to be many corpse monsters that everyone faces, the corpse monsters that can survive the artillery fire are somewhat capable.
This battle is still extremely dangerous for everyone.
"Prepare for hand-to-hand combat!"
Regiment Leader Chen raised the machete in his hand, and his eyes fell on the corpse monster that was already less than fifty meters below, ready for battle.
The surrounding troops threw away their guns in battle, and pulled out the machetes behind them, and the guns without bullets were better than burning sticks.
They were also quite satisfied with the weapons in their hands, which were much easier to use than those iron rods.
"Lao Shen, it's good that you got these machetes, which are much easier to use than daggers, otherwise you can only fight with iron rods in the next battle."
Commander Chen looked at the machete in his hand and sighed, with this kind of cold weapon, fighting those monsters in close combat, the safety factor has been improved a lot.
"It's all thanks to Qin Xiao."
Shen Guodong didn't dare to take credit, these cold weapons were all cold weapons transformed by Li Lei who worked tirelessly and relied on his own abilities.
In order to get rid of this batch of cold weapons, Li Lei didn't even have time to eat, and almost reached the state of collapse, so he finally rushed out in the middle of the night.
Fortunately, Li Lei arrived at the war situation, and his recovery ability was extremely strong, and after a few hours of rest, he also completely recovered his state, which did not affect the battle below.
These machetes are not as sharp and hard as the weapons of Qin Xiao and others, but in the face of corpse monsters, they still have considerable lethality.
