As night fell, it began to snow again here in Hezhou.

In the midst of the snowstorm, flares began to rise into the air.

However, in this weather, the flares are not so effective, and the thick flying snow blocks the light.

In the dim light, the zombies were like groups of ghosts, approaching the city wall.

After many days of fierce fighting, the Fifth Army had been reduced from 250,000 to 150,000, and later 30,000 reserve troops were added, bringing it to a total of 180,000.

In Liu Yibang's view, it should not be a big problem for these 180,000 people to hold on for another two days, after all, the artillery shells and flares supported by Tang Zheng are still enough for the time being.

A new round of fighting began again, and the soldiers of the Fifth Army, who had become somewhat accustomed to it, fought step by step, reloading their bullets and firing their guns.

It's just that today's battlefield is a little strange, and those ironclad zombies actually began to advance side by side.

The two ironclad zombies stood side by side and walked forward side by side, and under the command of the Corpse King, they protected their heads with their hands to reduce the chance of being shot in the head.

The fighters of the Fifth Army also had experience in dealing with this situation, and they also formed a number of battle groups on the city walls.

Two fighters, paired with a sniper, snipe at these difficult iron armors.

In the event that they can't reach their heads, the warriors will continue to shoot the ironclad in the leg, breaking it as much as possible.

Once the zombie's leg is broken, it will immediately lose its ability to move, and no matter what the iron armor is, it can only squirm and crawl on the ground, and its power is greatly reduced.

It's just that the efficiency of this method in the past was not very high, and there was no way to do it, after all, the iron armor would also move to dodge.

But today it was different, the iron armor would not dodge at all, and the warriors would continue to shoot until they broke their legs, and they would not stop advancing.

After knocking down multiple iron armors one after another, the warriors discovered the anomaly.

It turned out that behind the iron armor who was walking side by side, there was a fat zombie hidden in it.

The belly of the fat zombie was even more beating than the belly of a pregnant woman who was ten months pregnant, trembling and walking, moving relatively slowly.

"Do these monsters eat fat too? See what they're capable of? ”

A sniper raises his gun and shoots a fat zombie in the stomach.

Bang~~~!

The fat zombie's stomach was directly burst, and his body exploded like a rotten watermelon, and countless liquids splashed out.

Some of the surrounding zombies were affected, and all the parts that were contaminated with the liquid began to dissolve and rot.

"Hahaha! What kind of zombie is this, not to mention walking slowly, and even exploding to hurt his companions, isn't this a bomb. ”

"Good! The more zombies like this, the better, everyone shoots. ”

Seeing this situation, Zhang Zhixin even personally picked up a rifle and came to the front line.

With such a zombie, he didn't make good use of it, and he felt sorry for himself.

For his behavior, Liu Yibang didn't stop it, this person just likes to play in person, otherwise he wouldn't kill a corpse king with his own hands, so let him go.

Zhang Zhixin continued to use the rifle to shoot and killed several fat zombies, which was very enjoyable.

But there were too many zombies below, and despite the constant shooting, under the cover of iron armor, there were still many zombies approaching the city wall.

Suddenly, the fat people, who were considered almost harmless, launched an attack on the city walls!

I saw the fat zombie approaching with many heads, and suddenly opened his mouth.

One by one, the liquid turned into sharp arrows and fired at the defenders on the city wall!

Puff puff~~~!

The defenders, who had never suffered a long-range attack, were caught off guard!

The deadly liquid fell on the body and immediately began to corrode the flesh and skin.

The soldiers screamed, tumbling and falling, and in a single roll, large pieces of flesh were corroded and fell to the ground.

In a matter of moments, the walls of the city became a hell on earth!

The sudden attack of the fat zombie knocked at least two thousand soldiers to the ground.

The fallen soldier has no chance to get up again, and the corrosive nature of those liquids is terrifying, corroding flesh and flesh and internal organs, and can easily turn a soldier into a white bone.

Suffering this sudden attack, the fire on the walls was suppressed at once.

Liu Yibang's side, Zhang Zhixin was also recruited.

Looking at Zhang Zhixin, who was rolling and screaming on the ground, Liu Yibang couldn't help him, and he was also a little frightened.

In just thirty seconds, his deputy commander had already turned into white bones, and his military uniform was rotten and scattered.

Such a terrible thing happened around him, and the sudden death of a person who had just been alive and well made Liu Yibang's heart cold.

There is a new variant of zombies, and the situation is dangerous.

Sure enough, after the first wave of the fat zombie raid was successful, next, in countless directions and corners of the city, there were fat zombies spraying this poisonous water at the city.

Deadly water arrows flew up one after another, and the defenders on the city wall suddenly fell into extremely passivity.

Contamination with poisonous water is almost certain death, and few people have the courage to stand at the head of the city at this time.

The defeated soldiers wanted to run down, and Liu Yibang's eyes were red at this moment.

If the defenders withdrew, the city would fall in an instant, and then everything would be irreparable.

"No one is allowed to retreat, and the people in the back, look for anything that can resist the poisonous water, wooden boards, pot lids, bathtubs, or tear down your doors, and hold them up for me!"

"Flares, double the fire, find all the fat zombies hiding in the darkness for me, what about the snipers? Are they all-eating? Can't you see such a big belly? Hit me hard! ”

"Artillery troops, don't be stingy with your artillery fire, if you can't hold out tonight, there will be no tomorrow, shoot all the shells out for me!"

As he spoke, Liu Yibang took out a pistol and shot several deserters with his own hands.

His guards also rushed up, gun-armed to force those who tried to flee back.

Under the pressure of Liu Yibang's powerful bullets, the soldiers had to return to the city wall and continue to fight.

With a large number of flares lifted into the air, the situation improved somewhat.

No matter how the iron armor blocks it, the fat zombie's figure is there, and it is impossible to completely block it.

And with such a huge belly, it is also a very good target to kill, and a shot from the side can also cause an explosion.

The soldiers, who had mastered some of the methods, began to fight back, blasting a large number of fat zombies.

The artillery in the rear also did not care about conserving strength, as long as the cannon could fire, then load the shells and fire.

The rumbling bombardment also reduced the pressure on the defenders of the city walls.

However, the number of these fat zombies is also too much, and it may have been because of the slow movement, or the tactics of the corpse king, that they took it by surprise, and today it brought huge pressure to the defenders.

Although the defenders killed much faster, the number of corpses was unbelievably large, and they could withstand any casualties.

And the casualties on the defender's side also rose after the appearance of the fat zombies.

In a weekday and night battle, 10,000 casualties are almost the limit, but tonight, the defenders have more than 30,000 dead here!

About 80% of them died under the poisonous water attack of the fat zombies, and this kind of unguardable thing is really difficult to deal with.

Later, the soldiers used various methods to block the poisonous water, such as the protection of wooden planks and other things, so that they could be regarded as slightly stabilizing their positions and ensuring that Hezhou did not fall that night.

The participation of the fat zombies lasted until the early morning.

After dawn, the fat zombie had no darkness to cover, and then slowly retreated, and the difficult night was over.

Under the city walls, there are zombie corpses all over there, and a new round of attacks over there will begin.

The Fifth Army was a little overwhelmed.

In this short night, more than 30,000 people were killed and more than 10,000 were wounded, and the 180,000 people dropped to 130,000 in an instant, greatly reducing the combat effectiveness.

And after last night's fierce artillery fire, more than half of the artillery of the Fifth Army was scrapped.

Of the original 500 cannons, there are only more than 100 of them that can still be used, and various failures have also begun to occur, so they have to be temporarily repaired.

On the other hand, under the city of Hezhou, the zombies are still boundless, and the place is impenetrable.

Tens of millions of corpses were all in place, and when he stood on the city wall, he could see countless fat zombies in the distance.

There are also countless mutant birds and mutant beasts, all of which have begun to gather on this side of the city wall.

Those tall and conspicuous second-level zombies also began to appear continuously.

The heavy pressure, as well as the strong feeling of suffocation, meant that today's battle would never be easy.

Seeing this, Liu Yibang gasped.

The corpses are about to start their final assault.

From the beginning of the battle to the present, it seems that the corpse group has not gone all out, and the corpse king over there seems to be constantly experimenting with various arms.

The first mutant bird attacked, and later the mutant rat attacked.

In the middle, the second-level zombies were dispatched, and finally the fat zombies were dispatched.

The cooperation between the various arms of the zombies is becoming more and more tacit, and this battle is becoming more and more difficult to fight.

Humans are training with corpses, and corpses are also training with humans.

Now the frequent changes on the side of the corpse group represent that the corpse king is making the final adjustments.

It is conceivable that once the final adjustment is over, the corpse group will definitely be in full swing and will not give up until they take Hezhou.

This time could start this evening, or it could start this afternoon.

Liu Yibang prefers the night, after all, the night is not good for human warfare, and his casualties during this period are basically concentrated at night.

At present, the Fifth Army has only 130,000 men, the armored forces are completely destroyed, the artillery is crippled, and morale is beginning to decline.

I'm afraid it's going to be hard to hold on tonight.

Liu Yibang turned his head and looked at the correspondent behind him: "How is the transfer of personnel in the city?" ”

"Commander, hundreds of thousands of people were transported away last night, and now there are still 1.2 million people in the city."

"One million and two thousand days can't be transported in the daytime, at least thirty hours can be done."

Liu Yibang pondered for a while, and finally made up his mind: "Convey my order, let all the people, strengthen the city wall again, and then evacuate all of them, go to the airport and railway station, and go as much as they can." ”

"All departments in the city have stopped working and evacuated with the people."

Hearing Liu Yibang's words, his correspondent also knew that maybe tonight, or at most tomorrow morning, this Hezhou would fall.

He couldn't help but ask: "Commander, what about our 130,000 people?" We can't all stay here and die, because if there is no hope, the brothers will not be able to hold on. ”

Hearing the words of his subordinates, Liu Yibang fell into deep thought.

It is true that he is responsible for the survivors of River State, but as the commander of the Fifth Army, he should be even more responsible for his subordinates.

These 130,000 people must not all be thrown here.
