mtl008 Chapter 171 The Great Confrontation (7)
Chapter 171 The Great Confrontation (7)
There are two key battlefields where the Destiny Position fights against the sea of corpses.
Battlefield 27, Sharpstown. But now the sea of corpses has taken over Sharpstown and spread to Highway 27. Therefore, it can be called Battlefield .
Battlefield 2, Greenville. The main force of the Destiny Army headed southeast of Gran Town, continuously blocking the blue-armored giant corpses and reducing the size of the sea of corpses around them.
The situation on Battlefield No. 27 is now very good. A group of workers are stepping on the corpses of the zombies and pushing the front line step by step. This part of the sea of corpses is originally the end of the main body of the sea of corpses. There are about tens of thousands of them. There are few mutated zombies and they are easy to annihilate.
The sea of zombies on the road was retreating step by step. The machine guns of the Destiny Army blew up the heads of the zombies who had no power to fight back. Ordinary zombies fell down in groups under the machine guns, and there was no direct threat at all.
There are still workers fighting on the flank. There are still a lot of zombies left in the woods, but they are all tied up by the workers. The Destiny Army only needs to be responsible for the front battlefield, and soon the tail of the sea of zombies will be completely cleared.
The battle seemed to be going very smoothly, but Zhang Qiang knew that this was only a superficial phenomenon.
In the original plan, Zhang Qiang thought that the sea of corpses would not reach Highway 27 so quickly. The mixed team could move separately along the highway, with Wang Zhiqiang leading the soldiers and workers to attack Sharps Town, while he would take the least force to sweep the wilds of Sharps Town.
However, plans cannot keep up with changes. Zhang Qiang is very worried about the situation on the Greenville battlefield, fearing that something unexpected will happen in Greenville.
The size of the sea of corpses at the end was rapidly reduced. A team of several hundred people could fire thousands of bullets in a second. Not to mention that every bullet could kill a zombie, nor that people were shooting accurately all the time, but in the end, the efficiency of everyone in killing zombies was definitely not low!
Seeing that the sea of corpses on the highway was about to be wiped out, Zhang Qiang immediately took the opportunity to contact the Greenville battlefield.
"Kate, have you arrived yet? Has Greenwell taken possession of it?"
“Sizzle…Bang!!”
There were sounds of explosions coming from the other end of the intercom, and Kate's voice was filled with chaotic electricity:
"Commander, the blue-armored giant corpse has entered Greenville, and the sea of corpses is one kilometer away from it! We are retreating!"
"Where's the tank? Where's the tank that 141 brought back? Let's try to destroy it with a single shot! Let's try using both Hellfire and Steel Needle to see if we can kill it!"
Zhang Qiang gave Kate an order that since the giant blue-armored corpse was still moving at the front of the sea of corpses, the Destiny Army must find an opportunity to behead it.
"We're out of Hellfire missiles! We're only left with machine gun bullets in the cotton mill!"
Kate has bad news.
"Let the tanks intercept the blue-armored giant zombie alone! Try again! I don't believe that the 120mm cannon can't stop it for a few minutes?"
Zhang Qiang felt his blood pressure rising. Without the Hellfire to consume the blue-armored giant corpse from a distance, the maximum effectiveness of the fin-discarding armor-piercing projectile could not be exerted!
"Received! The tank crew is covering the rear!"
In the town of Greenville, a mighty M1 tank drove in the opposite direction of the evacuating troops, with its 120mm main gun pointing directly at the eastern road.
The current M1 tank is not as heavy as the later M1, but the overall weight is still around tons.
Yet, this behemoth can still travel at speeds approaching 70km/h.
Inside the vehicle crew, a group of white soldiers worked together attentively. They were originally deployed soldiers of American nationality and were also the elite among the soldiers.
"At 12 o'clock, the Smurfs appear."
Giving targets all kinds of familiar nicknames is a quirk of the U.S. military. The gunners have already spotted their targets in the observation mirror.
A tail-end discarding sabot armor-piercing shell was automatically loaded into the barrel by the loader. The Tianming Army already had very detailed intelligence about the blue-armored giant corpse, so the driver naturally would not approach the blue-armored giant corpse again.
"FIRE!"
boom! ! !
A dazzling flash of fire burst out from the muzzle of the 120mm smoothbore gun. The fin-stabilized armor-piercing discarding sabot projectile flew out of the barrel, and the outer shell was quickly peeled off. The depleted uranium alloy steel needle contained inside flew towards the blue-armored giant corpse that was running at a speed close to Mach 6.
“It’s crazy.”
The gunner had already drawn his own conclusion when he observed the giant blue-armored zombie rushing towards the tank.
BANG!!!!
A large amount of light and heat burst out from the upper body of the blue-armored giant corpse, and the blue scales flew everywhere. The depleted uranium alloy steel needles hit the blue-armored giant corpse and instantly broke through the surface armor, directly hitting its hard barrel-shaped sternum!
This time, the depleted uranium alloy steel needle encountered a hard object. When the two hard objects collided with each other, the time could be measured in milliseconds.
Self-sharpening, constantly self-sharpening, when the tip of the depleted uranium steel needle hits a hard object, the surface fragments quickly fall off the needle body at the moment of blunting, making the needle body sharp!
Click! !
The sternum of the blue-armored giant corpse shattered, and a large bumpy hole appeared on its chest. At the same time, the glowing and hot depleted uranium alloy steel needles could not bear the weight and turned into countless fragments that were embedded in the blue-armored giant corpse.
"Roar!!!"
A shrill roar came from the mouth of the blue-armored giant corpse, but it was no longer powerful and heavy. Its lungs were pierced, and the roar was as weak as a leaky trumpet.
"It's a hit!! Keep shooting!"
The gunner shouted excitedly behind the observation mirror!
The tank's loader began to load the next shell, and the crew even planned to get closer to the blue-armored giant corpse and behead it!
When the artillery fire sounded in Greenwell, Kate was the only one in the army who turned back to observe. She saw that the blue-armored giant corpse was injured and immediately contacted the crew to inquire about the situation.
"Successful penetration! The target has been severely damaged! Commander! Please allow us to give chase!"
The conductor shouted loudly on the radio.
The earth was shaking, but the giant blue-armored corpse lost its invincible posture and turned to run towards the sea of corpses. Although the wound on its chest was still slowly healing, the actual trauma in its body had already made it lose its blind momentum.
Wisdom brings it timidity.
"Fuck...Fuck!"
Kate observed the blue-armored giant zombie running away through the telescope and was so frightened that she cursed repeatedly.
The Greenville battlefield has ushered in a turning point? !
"All troops, line up and continue to defend Greenville! The Smurfs have escaped!!"
Kate raised her intercom and shouted into the general communications segment.
The unstoppable enemy retreated, and the morale of the Tianming Army soared instantly. The evacuated troops turned around and began to set up a new defense line towards the east.
On Highway 27, a huge bulldozer pushed aside the layers of zombie corpses on the road, clearing a path for the convoy.
The mixed team needed to continue moving towards Sharps Town, and the road full of corpses became the only obstacle.
The tail of the sea of corpses was wiped out by people, and Zhang Qiang stood in front of all the teams, his expression still solemn.
Kate has not yet delivered the latest news from the Greenville battlefield. In this war between humans and the sea of corpses, Zhang Qiang currently sees no possibility of victory.
Just as Zhang Qiang was lost in thought, the next second, Kate's voice came from the intercom on his chest.
"Sir! We won!!"
"What? Fuck!"
Zhang Qiang was stunned for a second, then he reacted and fell into ecstasy. Could it be that the blue-armored giant zombie was killed by the tank? !
Kate immediately informed Zhang Qiang of the outstanding performance of the M1 main battle tank.
Upon learning that the blue-armored giant corpse was not dead but had simply escaped back into the sea of corpses, Zhang Qiang's joy disappeared by half.
The remaining joy still made Zhang Qiang smile. Ever since the M1 tank injured the blue-armored giant corpse, the balance of victory in this war has completely tilted towards humans and the Destiny Army!
You know, Price has reported that there are more tanks and other war machines in the military base north of Atlanta!
"Everyone!!"
Zhang Qiang suddenly jumped onto a pickup truck, stood up tall and shouted to the people:
"Latest news! Good news from Greenville!! We just won a victory!!"
Zhang Qiang will not miss any opportunity to boost the morale of the workers. This war will still take some time, and everyone needs strong spiritual energy to support them in fighting!
The team of workers who had just finished fighting the sea of corpses were a little tired. After hearing what Zhang Qiang shouted, everyone showed surprise on their faces.
This battle was much more difficult than ordinary people imagined, but they also didn't expect that a victory would come so quickly?!
"Yes! Dear warriors of destiny! As long as we work together, all enemies will fail! Fail!!"
"Victory always belongs to the destiny position!"
Zhang Qiang habitually raised his right hand. This simple arm-raising action was a cheering action that everyone was used to. Regardless of the key facts, Zhang Qiang emphasized the changes in the battle situation caused by the participation of many people.
"Victory always belongs to the Destiny Front!!"
"Victory, victory! Destiny! Destiny!"
Whenever Zhang Qiang raised his arms high, people would cheer with great enthusiasm as if they were injected with chicken blood.
At this time, hundreds of people were standing on the road and shouting together. A large piece of land not far away was filled with the corpses of tens of thousands of zombies.
A loud rumbling sound pierced the sky, and the noise in the air caused Zhang Qiang and everyone else to stop cheering and look up into the sky.
A huge plane was flying at full speed in the air, its nose pointing southeast, directly towards the town of Greenville.
The noise from an unfamiliar airplane silenced everyone's shouts. Zhang Qiang frowned and started to worry about the source of the plane.
"what is that?"
"Fuck! C-130 gunship!"
There was a lot of discussion among the crowd. The purpose of this plane was still unclear. This kind of war machine had never appeared in the Tianming position.
People are worried that if the remaining government troops take action, they will also be in danger. The U.S. military has committed the heinous crime of indiscriminate bombing of Atlanta.
"Zizizizi... Sir, have you seen my big bird?"
Suddenly, the sound of soap came from the intercom on my chest.
Zhang Qiang's eyes widened, and then, under everyone's gaze, he pressed the intercom and replied: "Are you flying a gunship?!"
"Yes, please confirm the target, my sir."
The sound of soap making wanton sounds rang out again.
The crowd looked at Zhang Qiang silently. At this moment, everyone had the answer in their hearts, but they were waiting for Zhang Qiang to reveal it.
"Please help me clean up the sea of corpses in Sharps Town if you pass by it. My main target is the sea of corpses in Greenwell Town!"
After Zhang Qiang gave the order to the soap, he looked at the workers holding guns with a resolute face, pointed to the sky and opened his arms:
"We! It's our destiny!"
"Hoo!!! Long live destiny!!"
“Destiny!! Destiny!!”
The crowd went into a frenzy again.
The bulldozer has cleared a passage, and Zhang Qiang is shouting at people to get on board, as the team needs to continue moving towards Sharps Town!
In the air, the gunboat heading southeast has begun to turn sideways and fly towards the town of Sharps.
The workers sitting in the vehicles stared at the sky intently, admiring the flying posture of the aerial gunship. People have only seen the combat images of this big guy in movies.
Most of the workers present knew that once the gunboat began to fly sideways and turn its fuselage, it meant that the ground would be bombarded with artillery fire!
The ground team encountered a large number of zombies again in the second half of Highway 27. This time the number of zombies was even smaller and the density was not high enough, probably only a few thousand.
The main body of the sea of corpses was indeed led towards Greenwell by the blue-armored giant corpse!
In the back of the pickup truck at the front of the convoy, Zhang Qiang observed the small-scale sea of corpses and found two giant tank corpses.
"Found a mutant zombie, crush it."
Zhang Qiang picked up the walkie-talkie and connected with Soap in the gunboat.
"receive."
In the tilted aerial gunship, Gary and Ghost were loading the 105mm howitzer as reloaders.
Before the shells were fired, the huge protruding barrel on the gunship opened fire first. The 25mm Gatling gun swept the ground, and a series of thick light rain fell from the sky. The giant tank corpses in the sea of corpses were instantly submerged in the heavenly punishment! !
Affected by the acceleration of gravity, the machine gun bullets falling from high altitude will only have more kinetic energy!
Countless rays of light instantly tore the body of the giant tank corpse into pieces, exploding it into a ball of blood mist. The surrounding zombies were injured by the fragments splashed by the machine guns hitting the ground, and a group of zombies' limbs flew across the ground.
The 105mm howitzer is no longer needed.
Soap took a look at the fire control radar, locked onto the densest part of the sea of corpses and fired a 105mm howitzer.
Pass! ! !
The dull sound could even be heard by people on the ground.
The gunship in the air spit out a stream of fire, and the entire aircraft shifted more than a meter in flight.
The sea of corpses on the ground was hit by the falling grenades. A huge cloud of dust spread out, countless stone fragments and body parts flew out of the smoke, and visible pits appeared on the ground.
Pass! Pass! Pass! Pass! Pass!
There were still gunshots coming from the air. The 40mm automatic cannon continued to fire at the ground at a steady frequency. Thick beams of light spread out evenly and fell to the ground. Half of the small sea of corpses was immediately submerged in the smoke and dust from the exploding shells.
Pass! ! !
Another 105mm howitzer was fired, a loud bang was heard in the air, and a cloud of smoke and dust dozens of meters high rose from the sea of corpses again.
"Okay Soap, that's enough here! Save the ammunition and go to Greenwell!"
Zhang Qiang was watching from the ground with fear in his heart. The violent shaking of the earth could be felt even a hundred meters away in the sea of corpses.
"Roger that sir!"
Soap originally wanted to fire all four machine guns at the same time to plow the sea of corpses on the ground, but there was no other way. Zhang Qiang gave the order, so he could only go to Greenwell to have another try.
