After seeing the equipment and strength of Yue Zhong's troops, the people of SY County rejoiced that they had not clashed with Yue Zhong. Based on the equipment in Yue Zhong's hands, even if they had won, they would have suffered heavy losses.
Although equipment was not the deciding factor in a troop's strength, it was definitely an important factor. For an army of the same level, it was almost impossible for one side to go up against the other side's tanks and cannons.
"Commander Yue, please follow our previous agreement and send out your troops to exterminate the zombies." The moment Yue Zhong's troops arrived, the military immediately sent out an envoy to urge Yue Zhong to send out his troops.
"Got it! Go back and tell Commander Shen, I'll send out my troops now!! "Yue Zhong immediately replied to the envoy.
Su Dongming and Yue Zhong had engaged in a fierce battle, resulting in the destruction of most of his tanks, assault helicopters and other heavy weaponry. His elite soldiers had also been annihilated. His strength had suffered a huge blow, and his position in the military had also dropped. He was now a Deputy Division Commander. As for the Division Commander, he had become Shen Hongyang, who was the strongest.
Of course, although the other 3 heads of the military only controlled about a regiment of soldiers, each of them had the title of Deputy Division Commander.
After dealing with the envoy, Yue Zhong summoned Guo Quan and said: "Guo Quan!! This is our retreat route. If this place were to be attacked, our brothers of the 4 battalions would be in danger of being wiped out. This time, I'm leading the troops to clear out the zombies, you have to defend this place for me! Are there any problems? "
This time, Yue Zhong only intended to bring 4 battalions to the frontlines, leaving the elite Ning Guang County 1st Battalion to stay behind in SY County, to deal with any unexpected situations.
In this post-apocalyptic world, anything could happen. Yue Zhong did not want to see himself fighting at the frontlines, while his retreat route was cut off by the allied forces.
Guo Quan stared at Yue Zhong, his face full of determination as he replied: "No problem!! Commander Yue, even if I have to give up my life, I will defend this place! "
Guo Quan had experienced many battles, and had grown from an ordinary survivor to become the Deputy Battalion Commander of Ning Guang County's 1st Battalion. He was now an outstanding soldier. War was the best training ground. It allowed Guo Quan to grow from an ordinary person into an excellent commander in less than two months.
Yue Zhong left Guo Quan behind, and led the 2nd, 3rd and 4th Battalions of Ning Guang County, the 8th Battalion of SY County, and the Special Combat Forces to advance towards the direction of SY County.
SY County's army had also mobilized over 5,000 troops, and was advancing towards SY County.
Due to the lack of fuel, other than self-propelled artillery, IFVs, and other armored vehicles, the rest of the soldiers could only use their two legs to march.
SY County's army had been making their way towards SY County, and along the way, most of the zombies in the villages had already been killed by them. Yue Zhong and the rest proceeded smoothly as well.
2 days later, Yue Zhong and the rest arrived at a distance of about 10km from the zombie horde.
This army of eight thousand people was divided into six factions, and the trust between them was not strong. Especially since Yue Zhong's troops and Su Dongming's troops were like fire and water, hence the 8,000 strong army split into 6 groups to engage the zombies within SY County.
Yue Zhong and SY County's army were on guard against each other, and at the same time, they were making use of each other. The zombies were the biggest enemies of humanity, and the millions of zombies within SY County were not only the enemies of SY County, they were also Yue Zhong's enemies. If the survivors within SY County were to be wiped out, then the next target of the zombies would be Yue Zhong.
Yue Zhong led his troops all the way, and finally stopped at Tiger's Mouth Gorge.
Tiger's Mouth Gorge was also one of the main routes to SY County, and the gorge was between 2 hills that were tens of metres tall. The narrow route only allowed 2 large trucks to pass through, and it was easy to defend and hard to attack. It was the best place to defend.
The moment they reached Tiger's Mouth Gorge, Yue Zhong ordered the 1st and 2nd Battalions of the 1st Reserve Regiment to start building fortifications. A number of wire netting, a number of steel ropes, a number of wooden fences, barricades, as well as a number of huge pits quickly appeared within Tiger's Mouth Gorge.
The 2 hills near Tiger's Mouth Gorge were also quickly occupied by Yue Zhong, in order to prevent the zombies from climbing the hills to break through.
After Yue Zhong brought his troops to Tiger's Mouth Gorge, he handed over the command to Xu Zhenggang. Xu Zhenggang was an outstanding soldier, and after the apocalypse, he had experienced many battles against zombies and Mutant Beasts. Commanding a defensive battle was not a problem.
Yue Zhong himself went to the command centre of the 6 Armies, where the 5 heads of SY County's military were also gathered.
There were drones flying in the skies, and as the upper echelons of the military, they only needed to issue orders from within the command centre, and the rest of the battle would naturally be handled by their subordinates.
Yue Zhong had gotten his hands on a command vehicle and a drone from the Mechanized Infantry Brigade, it was just that he did not have any technical soldiers who could operate the drones. He could only watch as the high-tech equipment was left to rot in the warehouse.
Su Dongming saw Yue Zhong walking in, and snorted coldly, before turning his head away, not wanting to look at Yue Zhong anymore.
Yue Zhong's current strength far surpassed Su Dongming's, and Su Dongming could only use such petty means to vent his dissatisfaction with Yue Zhong. As for directly provoking Yue Zhong, he would not do such a stupid thing.
Shen Hongyang saw Yue Zhong walking in, and smiled warmly: "Yue Zhong, you're here! Are you ready? "
This time, Yue Zhong had deployed so many troops, and it had far exceeded Shen Hongyang's expectations, hence he had a good impression of Yue Zhong.
Yue Zhong chuckled: "I'm ready on my side! I can move out at any time! "
Shen Hongyang looked at Yue Zhong deeply and said: "Then let us begin!"
"Begin the attack!"
The moment the 6 heads of the command centre gave the order, the 6 armies under them immediately launched a ferocious assault on the zombie horde near SY County.
A number of self-propelled cannons spat out tongues of flame, as the rounds rained down on the densely packed zombie horde, causing huge patches of zombies to be blasted into smithereens.
Regardless of whether it was the powerful L1s, or the invulnerable L2s, or the agile S2s, they were all blasted apart under the intense firepower, suffering heavy losses.
After a round of intense bombardment, the soldiers of the army used the armored vehicles as cover and small mobile firing points to launch their assault on the zombies. Under the barrage of bullets, a large number of zombies fell to the ground like harvested wheat.
The zombies within SY County seemed to be stunned by the sudden attack, but they quickly reacted, and under the control of the Z-Types, they pounced towards the soldiers like a tidal wave.
The moment the zombie horde moved, it was truly unstoppable, and it was the first time the soldiers had encountered such a terrifying horde. Previously, although the army had faced a large number of zombies, they were not organized, and were easily wiped out. However, it was different this time, the charge of over a million zombies was unstoppable.
Behind the army, a number of self-propelled cannons, as well as 40 rocket launchers, were firing wildly at the horde of zombies, killing them one by one.
Under the barrage of bullets, the densely packed horde of zombies was decimated by over 30,000 of them. If the human army was decimated by 30,000 of them, their morale would have crumbled. However, the horde of zombies did not seem to have any fear, as they continued their fearsome charge despite the ferocious firepower.
The openings caused by the bullets were quickly filled up by other zombies.
The soldiers relied on the machine guns on the vehicles to form a firing point, and a large number of zombies were being shot down by them.
The zombies that were charging in a frenzy did not even get close to the soldiers before they were decimated by the barrage of bullets, as they fell to the ground like wheat.
It was just that the charge of a million zombies was more than a hundred times more terrifying than that of a few thousand or even tens of thousands of zombies. The zombies did not seem to stop for even a moment.
The firing of the soldiers did not stop for even a moment, and under the frenzied firing, many of the machine guns and rifles had turned red from the continuous barrage of bullets.
The soldiers immediately began to change the spare gun barrels. In the process of changing the gun barrels, the firepower was inevitably reduced by a lot.
Just as the soldiers stopped firing, the horde suddenly split apart, and over a hundred H1s suddenly appeared. They opened their mouths wide, and a number of fireballs shot towards the armored vehicles.
Many of the armored vehicles were instantly engulfed by the fireballs, and exploded. The shockwave from the explosion even caused the surrounding soldiers to be injured or killed.
After the first attack, the S2s that were hidden among the zombies charged towards the soldiers like a hurricane.
The speed of the S2s was extremely fast, and it only took them 7 seconds to cover a distance of 100m. Although many of the soldiers had already changed their guns and started firing, there were still a number of S2s that managed to charge into the formation of the soldiers, as they waved their claws and killed many of them.
With the assault of the S2s, the frontline of the soldiers crumbled, and they started to flee in panic.
"Cover the area with artillery!! Cover the area with artillery!! "
Under the command of the command center, the self-propelled artillery, howitzers and multi-barrel rocket launchers started to fire wildly at the horde of zombies. Large patches of zombies were instantly engulfed by the artillery, and blasted into ashes.
The hundreds of H1s that had contributed greatly were also blasted into pieces.
The Enhancers within the military also took action to kill the S2s one by one. (To be continued. If you like this work, please come to Qidian.Com to vote for me. Your support is my greatest motivation.)
