Chapter 122: Armored Raid (Three Watches, Two Hundred Monthly Tickets Plus)
Five Type 15s, five scimitars, five armored vehicles, as well as a large number of jeeps, and even the off-road vehicles collected by Tang Zheng, were all concentrated here, and there were nearly two hundred of them.
At this moment, although Tang Zheng's field troops are all participating in the battle on the city wall, he still has mobilized soldiers.
The sappers of the engineer platoon were all transferred to act as drivers.
And Tang Zheng's guard platoon, as well as Ji Yuntian's security bureau personnel, all acted as machine gunners.
Tang Zheng had equipped each car with a machine gun and two boxes of ammunition.
These vehicles gathered here, waiting for Tang Zheng's order.
Tang Zheng came to the front of the team and made a brief speech.
"As you know, the battle has reached a critical juncture."
"I know very well the idea of the zombie leader, he plans to take advantage of the darkness to break through the city of chasing light in one fell swoop, although we have flares on our side, but after all, it is not as convenient as fighting during the day, this is his best chance."
"Their second wave of 100,000 zombies is already about to come to the city, and I found that after several troop transfers, the zombie forward position has become a little farther away from Chaser City, and the current distance is about eight kilometers."
"The zombies move slowly, this is their weakness, and the plain in front of the Chasing Light City is so big, it is not realistic to rush over at one time, so I analyze that this wave of 100,000 attacking corpses is their last wave tonight, and if they want to organize a third wave of attacks, it should be tomorrow morning."
"We have to fight for ourselves a chance to rest, so we have to choose a suitable time to hit the zombies so that they are forced to stop tonight's attack, which is our strategic goal."
"Now follow my orders."
"Half an hour later, the artillery launched another shelling, and while this wave of corpses was in chaos, we rushed out to strike, and the time was tentatively set at two o'clock in the morning."
"Attack at two o'clock, arrive at the battlefield in ten minutes, ask to end the battle at 2:50, and retreat at 3 o'clock, do you understand this request?"
"Understood!"
"Okay, get ready, wait for the action on the artillery's side."
Here in the artillery position of Chaser City, the artillerymen are already exhausted and out of breath.
Tonight's battle was indeed beyond the norm.
The barrel of the cannon is going to be red, and if it continues to be fired, it will explode.
However, Tang Zheng directly supplemented the new cannons, and the people who controlled them were still those, but the number of cannons increased.
Let the previous cannon rest and cool down, and the new cannon goes into battle.
When the troops are upgraded to the regiment, he will replenish new artillery, which is equivalent to buying in advance.
With the new artillery, the artillery was able to continue the operation, which was considered to ensure the output of firepower.
On the other side of the city wall, under the delaying tactics of the Chasing Light Army, the zombies have made some progress, and the height of the corpse pile has reached ten meters.
Another half hour passed.
The artillery opened fire again, this time targeting 100,000 zombies who had just joined the battlefield.
On the zombie side, Chen Feilong felt a rare headache.
As a zombie, he had lost most of his senses, and he didn't feel pain when he was burned by the fire before, but now he had such feelings.
He knew that this kind of pain was a manifestation of his inability to do so, and commanding a large number of corpses to fight for a long time put a lot of pressure on his mental strength.
He didn't know if his own corpse king was purebred, but at present, his ability had indeed reached the limit, and there was no possibility of improvement.
"It's been too long to command the corpses, his head will be a little unbearable, and after tonight, I need to have a good rest."
"It won't take long, half a day will almost recover."
With this in mind, he commanded the 100,000 corpses to continue the battle, and no matter what, he would break through the walls tonight.
Even if these 100,000 zombies can't do it, he will send another 100,000, in short, tonight must achieve the result.
Enduring the headache, Chen Feilong asked another 100,000 zombies to assemble, ready to enter the battlefield at any time.
The zombies here continued to attack, and Tang Zheng's side also began to act.
In the dark night, the northeast city gate quietly opened.
More than a hundred chariots rumbled out, quietly approaching the south along the east gate wall.
In normal times, such a big movement would have been discovered, but now that the guns are shaking the sky in the south, this sound will not be noticed at all.
After reaching the southeast corner of the city wall, the vehicle made a detour, bypassing the attacking corpses that were advancing under artillery fire, and headed straight for the zombie army!
This is the strategy formulated by Tang Zheng.
It's past two o'clock in the morning, and it's going to be dawn in another three hours.
After dawn, the advantage of the zombies in the dark night is gone, and the battle is about to return to normal.
He believes that no matter how crazy the zombie leader is, he should consider taking a break.
Even if the zombies don't need to rest, shouldn't the corpses on the ground be devoured?
He wants to take this opportunity to interrupt the contact between the zombie army of 100,000 zombies, so that they are disconnected from each other, so that the zombie army will not have time to support again.
As long as the two sides are disconnected and want to come together again, the distance of eight kilometers will create a time gap.
This time difference is a rare rest time for the Light Chaser Army.
If things go well, maybe the fighting can be stopped, and that's the best outcome.
And the best way to break the connection between the large army of corpses and the vanguard is to assault the chariots.
Tanks and armored vehicles don't play much of a role in defending a city, but they are perfect for attacking.
Taking advantage of the chaos on the battlefield, the convoy quickly rushed forward.
Tang Zheng estimated that the Corpse King's attention might be focused on the side close to the city wall in a short period of time, and even if it found out, with the speed of the convoy, it would be able to catch it off guard.
Sure enough, the convoy took advantage of the chaos to advance about five kilometers before being discovered by zombies.
On the side of the zombie army, it was still boundless, and there were zombies in front of them who found the approaching convoy and immediately started a commotion.
This caught Chen Feilong's attention.
"What! Tang Zheng dared to send a convoy to attack me? Is he tired of living? ”
Chen Feilong felt a deep insult.
In the face of his millions of corpses, Tang Zheng was not only not afraid, but also sent a convoy to sneak attack, which in itself was contempt for himself.
He wants to organize zombies to surround this convoy that doesn't know whether it is alive or dead, smash the car, and drag the people inside out to eat, but this convoy is not a soft persimmon.
When the tank opened fire on the black-pressed zombie horde, Chen Feilong knew that things were not so simple.
There are even tanks in the Light Chaser Army!
The iron lump of the tank is too unfriendly to zombies.
Whether it is an ordinary zombie or a mutated zombie, the threat to the tank is almost zero.
Even the licker, a second-evolved zombie, has no good way to take a tank.
Only the orangutan zombies, this kind of destructive power is extremely amazing, and under Chen Feilong's deliberate armament, even the big guys who can resist heavy machine guns can threaten the tank.
Chen Feilong believes that as long as the orangutan zombies can get close to the tank, they can smash their machine guns, bend their barrels, and even tear down their turrets.
However, in order to prevent the orangutan zombies from being caught by the planes of the Chasing Light Army, he had already dispersed the orangutan zombies to the rear of the large army, and it was not easy to transfer them for a while.
So now, he can only watch the other party's vehicle attack his corpse.
When the battle really started, Chen Feilong realized that every car on the other side was a great threat to his corpses.
Because these vehicles were all equipped with machine guns by Tang Zheng.
More than a hundred cars, like a long dragon breathing fire, the high beams of the vehicles are turned on, and the machine guns are frantically output at the corpses in the distance.
The zombies tried in vain to chase the vehicles, but the speed and agility of these vehicles were not comparable to theirs, and except for the agile zombies, the other zombies could not catch up with the running cars.
And there are too many corpses here, agile zombies rush out of the corpses, without the cover of a large army, there will be no good end, and before they get close to the car, they are beaten into a sieve by the whistling machine gun bullets.
Ten tanks not only fired with machine guns, but also opened the rocket nest attached to the vehicle, and output it at the zombies with all their might.
They hovered at the front of the convoy and inflicted the greatest damage on the zombies.
The heavy machine gun is the anti-personnel artifact, and the torrent of metal shoots out, and the zombies fall down like grass.
These fallen zombies were the third group of attacking corpses gathered by Chen Feilong.
The task of these corpses is to support the corpses that have been put into the battlefield in front of them, to ensure that they continue to put pressure on the Light Chaser Army, and strive to take the Light Chaser City before dawn.
But now that they have been beaten by these chariots, they have been completely messed up, not to mention the losses, and they can't give support to the 100,000 zombies in front of them.
As a result, his battle plan was completely disrupted.
The 100,000 zombies in front lost the support from the rear and were about to become lonely.
It is obviously very difficult to take down the Light Chaser City with these 100,000 zombies alone, and maybe it may be annihilated before dawn.
The plan to take the city of chasing light in the dark of night has come to naught.
Chen Feilong was in the large army in the distance, and he was smoked by the seven orifices of anger.
There were two paths in front of him right now.
One is to rush over desperately and fight to the death with the light-chasing army.
One is to simply retreat and slow down, admitting that his night battle plan has failed.
He was unwilling, he wanted to fight to the death, but his headache was a little serious at the moment.
"No more! My mental strength is not enough to sustain such a fierce battle, and I need a little time to rest. ”
"Damn Tang Zheng, I will never let you have a good time, if you don't take it first, I will also wipe out your convoy here."
Chen Feilong was a little unable to support it, and he decided to stop the large-scale battle tonight.
It seems to be a good option to let the zombies of the strikers come back, devour the corpses of their companions, and destroy this chaotic convoy by the way.
In desperation, he gave the order for the attacking corpses to withdraw.
The 100,000 zombies who had already entered the battlefield and were about to engage in a head-to-head battle with the Light Chaser Army chose to retreat.
They left behind more than 10,000 corpses and tried to come back to surround the convoy of the Light Chasers.
But Tang Zheng had radar to watch, and after discovering the movement of the zombies, he immediately ordered the convoy to return to the city.
Led by tanks, the convoy launched a wave of counter-charge.
Without the participation of orangutan zombies, as long as there is gasoline in the Type 15 tank, it is almost invincible, and it crushes a way out of the corpses, breaks through the blockade of the zombies, and returns to the city with the convoy smoothly.
The convoy of the Light Chaser Army was like completing a honeymoon trip, annihilating more than 10,000 zombies, and breaking Chen Feilong's night battle plan, exceeding the mission.
By the time the zombie strikers retreated and joined the large army, there was already a white fish belly on the horizon.
Chen Feilong organized a battle that lasted for most of the afternoon, losing almost a quarter of the corpses, and did not achieve any remarkable results, not even climbing the walls of the Chasing Light City.
Only the three piles of corpses that were more than ten meters away, and the countless corpses scattered across the plains, were still telling the tragic situation of the first day of battle.
