Chapter 362: Mutated Zombies Attack (2)
"what?"
"Self-detonating zombie?? What the hell is this?"
At the headquarters of the Third Combined Battalion in Chongyi Ancient City, Zhu Jun, who had received the news, had already climbed up and entered the battalion headquarters.
He had just finished checking the sentries on the four walls half an hour ago. Not long after he came back and lay down, he was awakened by the news of zombies attacking the city.
At first he didn't take it seriously, thinking it was just an ordinary zombie. After all, since he came to this world, he had personally commanded and killed countless zombies.
If you connect them together, you might be able to circle the night market!
Therefore, in Zhu Jun's eyes, zombies, which are such "fragile" creatures, are automatically equated with pleasure!
He is totally waiting to be killed!
How can you be nice to something that you have been killing without any damage to?
But unexpectedly, the news that came a second ago slapped Zhu Jun in the face!
Even the atmosphere in the battalion, which had been very relaxed since the incident, became tense.
More than half of the infantrymen in the company and row were killed or wounded in one encounter! The area where the unit is stationed is in danger and may be breached at any time!
"Are the other walls okay?"
"Report to the commander! The rest of the city walls are all normal!"
"Okay, Staff Officer Liu, please remember this. I will make the following arrangements now!"
Zhu Jun came to the bird's-eye view of Chongyi Ancient City. The yellowish light shone on his head, making his hair look very sparse, with a large parting between his hair.
"Go back and tell the defenders on the west side of the city wall to hold on at all costs! I only want the position, not the casualties!"
When saying this, Zhu Jun's tone was full of iron and blood!
The Chongyi Military Sub-district was just established today and took over the defense of Chongyi City. If the wall was breached that night, wouldn’t the military sub-district and the provincial military region become a joke?
The zombie tide wants to ride on the necks of himself and the leader and slap them in the face!
If this really happens, it will not be an ordinary military defeat!
It will be an extremely serious political incident, which will undoubtedly be a major blow to the prestige of the leaders and the new provincial military region!
So at this moment Zhu Jun was completely furious!
"Now order the eastern, southern, and northern walls to no longer worry about exposure. Turn on all lights, and use the wall as a line for searchlights to advance at least 100 meters outward! At the same time, send a platoon of troops to each wall! Arrive at the western wall for support within one minute!"
"Yes!"
At this point, the staff officer who recorded the order turned around and left with the notebook, and another staff officer quickly came over.
Zhu Jun's thoughts were clear and his words flowed like water, which unknowingly calmed the anxious mood of everyone in the camp.
"Order the first and second tank companies to quickly head to the western wall and build a temporary defense circle. If the wall is breached, the two tank companies must pin them down where they are!"
Having said that, Zhu Jun waved his hand violently, and his fist, like a hammer, smashed into the west wall marked on the map, as if nailing something into it!
"Yes!"
The staff officer turned around and gave orders, and another staff officer came over like an assembly line.
"Finally, order the artillery company to quickly locate the location of the zombie tide. Don't save ammunition! Bomb them right away!!"
"Yes!"
After Zhu Jun gave all the orders in one breath, he still stood there, staring at the map hanging on the wall.
His eyes were deep and his thoughts had already flown beyond the map itself.
To be honest, the zombie tide tonight did catch him off guard!
First, the timing of their arrival was unexpected, they came suddenly without any signs, and the scale was not small. According to reports from the front line, the number was probably tens of thousands!
This exposes a problem. The external reconnaissance work in the Chongyi gathering place has not been done well. To put it simply, there is no vision in the wild area, and others only discovered it after they got home, which makes us very passive now!
The second is that the types of zombies that come are unexpected, such as the self-destructing zombies reported from the front line, which is a type that has never been heard of since I fought in the apocalypse!
Although I have encountered throwing zombies before, they all used gravitational potential energy to hurt people. I never heard that they could also use chemical energy to hurt people!
And it’s not just the exploding zombies that are weird. It is said that the other zombies also look very strange, and they must have their own abilities!
So this made Zhu Jun think about a question, why were the zombies encountered in the Xishui area so different from the zombies in the Chongyi gathering place?
Is it true that the local climate and soil breed the local corpse?
Thinking of this, Zhu Jun suddenly remembered the zombie hive. The intelligence said that the other party could hatch evolved zombies!
Zhu Jun came in such a hurry and had a habitual contempt for zombies that he only thought of it now!
So these strange species are all hatched from the zombie hive?
How can they come together and attack in such large numbers from such a long distance?
This made Zhu Jun ponder a question...
This group of zombies, or rather the mother nest behind them, is probably quite intelligent!
This reminded me of what the leader of the Chongyi gathering place mentioned at the lunch table, that evolved zombies occasionally attack the gathering place, but on a small scale.
At that time, a leader even joked and asked if it was a tentative attack in the art of war.
hiss~
It's connected! It seems to be connected!
If, as he had assumed, the zombie hive possessed a high level of intelligence, then there was a high probability that the small force ahead was indeed conducting a test attack in an attempt to find out the true strength of the Chongyi gathering place!
Such a large-scale invasion of zombies tonight is most likely because the zombie hive has figured out the strength of the Chongyi gathering place and is planning to take it down in one go!
Are you really that smart?
Zhu Jun couldn't believe it...
Because this overturned his long-held view that zombies were brainless...
"Drip drip!"
"Commander, this is the phone number for the Chongyi gathering place's official residence!"
"catch!"
Zhu Jun grabbed the intercom of the landline phone, and the next second Zhang Zhishun's concerned voice came from the intercom.
"Commander Zhu, I'm sorry to interrupt your command. I'm calling on behalf of the gathering place to ask if there is any help you can provide. For example, do you need to send out the security team? Or do you want to arrange for the transfer of the survivors?"
Less than two minutes after the battle started, Zhang Zhishun and Zhou Yu had already jumped out of bed and climbed onto the diving platform of the official residence.
I thought the army had arrived and I could finally sleep well tonight, but who knew that the damn zombies would also come!
Along with the sound of the alarm, the four walls of Chongyi Ancient City lit up like light strips!
Recreating some of the glory before the end of the world!
However, the light at this moment did not bring comfort to Zhang Zhishun, but made him even more worried!
Because the army must have encountered some big troubles to make such a big scene!
Thinking of this, Zhang Zhishun felt worried and relieved at the same time!
An army with sophisticated weapons and complete guns has still been deadlocked to this point. If it was just a garrison of a few people who couldn't even put together a gun, the gathering place would probably be destroyed by now!
"Mayor Zhang, please rest assured that everything is under control!"
Zhu Jun understood the other party's feelings very well, so he also spoke to comfort him.
"The army is fighting on the wall. Please ask the gathering place to comfort the survivors and not cause chaos!"
"At the same time, help maintain the road from the military base to the western city wall. A tank company will pass by in three minutes at the latest!"
tank?
Even the tanks were deployed?
"Understood! Understood! We will fully cooperate! We will not hold the troops back!"
Zhang Zhishun had no time to be shocked and quickly agreed.
After hanging up the phone, he immediately contacted the garrison captain!
