Chapter 404 Set the mountain on fire!
Dangxiang Town is the second most populous town in Xishui District, with a permanent population of about 70. Together with the center of Xishui District, its population accounts for more than % of the entire Xishui District!
The scale of zombies is conservatively estimated to be no less than 23. For this reason, the provincial military district headquarters has specially ordered the combined forces of a battalion!
After receiving the order and ending the battle to recapture Hushui Township, the Combined Battalion immediately moved towards Dangxiang Town, arrived at noon, and launched a full-scale attack on it after lunch!
So far, the combat time has exceeded almost 24 hours!
However, even now, the sound of gunfire shows no signs of stopping, but instead tends to intensify!
BOOM!
BOOM! BOOM!
...
The chandelier in the front-line command post of the Combined Battalion in Dangxiang Town almost never stopped shaking as it was close to the front battlefield!
With every explosion, the chandelier would swing slightly. At first, Jia Sanniu was not used to the dazzling light, but now he can ignore it.
"Dangxiang Central Primary School, County Road X116..."
Jia Sanniu stood in front of the monitor, holding an electronic pen in his hand, and kept marking the real-time battle report in his hand.
"The first combat group on the front line is calling urgently. The Dangxiang Health Center area is facing a dense concentration of zombies. We are requesting firepower support!"
Upon hearing this, Jia San didn't even turn his head, as if he was already used to similar information.
"Order the artillery company to provide support, and fire a basic number of artillery pieces rapidly!"
"Yes!"
The communicator just turned and left when Jia Sanniu heard the request for fire support again.
"Report to the battalion commander, the second combat team has an urgent message, the Dangxiang Farmers' Market is densely populated with zombies and the environment is narrow, so the armored troops cannot enter!"
"Order the artillery company to provide fire support, a basic artillery rapid fire!"
"Yes!"
"Report..."
When he heard the report for the third time, Jia Sanniu couldn't help but frown and cursed:
"Damn it! Is this the end? Can't we fight without artillery?"
It's understandable to have artillery support occasionally, but if you call for it at the slightest situation, then what's the use of having infantry? You might as well just withdraw and guard the artillery and let the artillery fire!
Faced with Jia Sanniu's scolding, the signalman trembled in fear, feeling weak, pitiful and helpless.
"camp.."
"Is it the Third Combat Team requesting artillery support this time?" Jia Sanniu learned to answer quickly.
"Old rules! Rapid fire of a base shell!"
"No! Battalion Commander, this time it's an urgent call from the military district headquarters!"
"headquarters?"
"Damn you, why didn't you say so earlier?"
...
Seeing the signalman looking aggrieved, Jia Sanniu realized that he didn't even let the other party speak, and couldn't help feeling a little embarrassed.
"Speak! What order?"
"Report to the battalion commander. The provincial military district headquarters has ordered that the original order to end the battle before 12: tonight remain unchanged. All frontline troops in the Xishui District Recapture Campaign shall abandon the recapture operations in Ma Ling Township and Gao Shan Township!"
Give up the recovery operation in Ma Ling Township and Gao Shan Township?
Jia Sanniu didn't have any idea after hearing this, because this order was not for him. These two places were under the responsibility of the Second and Fourth Combined Battalions. His current task was to eliminate Dangxiang Town!
Twelve o'clock tonight?
Jia Sanniu looked at the map and pondered the time. Now, the cleanup of the zombies in Dangxiang Town has been completed by almost 70%!
If the artillery fire is more intense and the front-line troops' offensive rhythm is more compact, there should be no problem in completing the offensive mission on time!
"Report to the headquarters and tell them that the Integrated Battalion has arrived!"
"Yes!"
After the signalman left, Jia Sanniu spoke again:
"Order the artillery company, don't save ammunition! Fire all the ammunition! Keep firing! Fire until there are no more shells!"
Thinking about the time pressure of the task, Jia Sanniu also became angry!
We had originally planned to be frugal, but the zombies in Dangxiang Town were not giving us face. Not only were there a large number of them, but they also refused to die!
How can this be good?
The only thing we can do is continue to increase the amount of ammunition!
.....
"What? The battalion commander asked us to use up all the shells?"
"Fuck! Unlimited firepower is on?? I feel so good just thinking about it!!!"
At the artillery position, the artillery company commander was holding a walkie-talkie, his face flushed with excitement, and his voice sounded like he was arguing!
There is no way, artillerymen have some hearing problems, and they can't hear anything unless they speak louder, so quarreling-style communication is considered to be the characteristic of artillerymen!
"Everyone in the company, listen to my orders! The battalion commander has given the order! Fire as hard as you can! Fire until you can't survive! Fire until you have fun!!"
"Roger that!"
"Roger that!"
Wuhu~It’s Chinese New Year!!!
?
At this moment, the transport soldier who was busy unloading ammunition from the transport vehicle suddenly raised his head, his face full of shock!
His face was gray and his confused expression looked like a Capybara chewing grass.
So no one would think that the shells appeared out of thin air and teleported here, right? ?
You guys are celebrating the New Year! My world is falling!!
Totally crazy! !
Just fire me out! !
......
...
While Jia Sanniu was frantically pouring ammunition towards Dangxiang Town, Lu Chong was experiencing a completely different situation.
"What? No need to recover it?"
At this moment, Lu Chong was wandering around Ma Ling Township with the Second Combined Battalion, just like on a picnic, searching for scattered villages according to the map, killing people and setting fire to them!
From afar, the flames burning in many villages were emitting billowing black smoke, and they were almost connected into one!
A large number of birds could be seen fleeing in the forest, and both mutated and non-mutated ones were flapping their wings wildly to escape!
I just regret that my parents didn’t give me two pairs of wings!
Wings are so useless!!!
However, even though they tried so hard to survive, many bird mutant creatures were still swallowed up in the rapidly encroaching forest fires!
If these mutant beasts knew that it was Lu Chong who led people to burn down their homes, they would probably fight with Lu Chong to the death!
Although Lu Chong's actions may be against the harmony of nature, they do not harm the harmony of people!
This dense forest in the mountains is obviously a good place to hide mutant beasts. Setting a fire in advance can also weaken the potential threat!
Now humans and zombies are fighting each other to the death, we can’t let these mutant beasts grow comfortably!
Especially the damn monkey!
Lu Chong still remembers that he was beaten by a monkey!
So whenever he encountered a forest, Lu Chong would set it on fire, just like drawing a lottery. What if he won the prize? Would he burn to death some powerful and difficult mutant beast?
"There's no need to recapture it, let's just withdraw!"
Looking at the growing wildfire in the distance, Lu Chong's heart trembled and he felt something was wrong!
It looked quite far away, but why was there already a heat wave hitting my face? ?
The weather is dry in the autumn and winter, and the fires that Lu Chong lit casually will swell when there is wind!
In less than half an hour, it had expanded to an extremely terrifying size and was about to swallow up half of the mountain!
If the wind blows in the opposite direction, it might burn you right down the road!
So Lu Chong immediately ordered a retreat:
"Combined Battalion 1, head towards the University Town in Xishui District, full speed ahead!"
"No! Step on the accelerator for me!"
Lu Chong was shocked and suddenly changed his words!
The wildfire has reversed!!
Holy crap, yo-yo!!
