Chapter 479 How could the civilian clothing team cause such a big mess!

The combat command room of the 77th Mixed Brigade was located in the living room on the third floor of a self-built house. Inside was a blood-stained sofa, a low coffee table covered with camouflage cloth, and three sets of field tables and chairs.

There was a charcoal fire burning in the middle for heating, and on the innermost side there was a fully unfolded simple camp bed with a mattress and blanket on it, which was specially used for Xu Zhihui to take a temporary rest.

at this time

Xu Zhihui had just finished a big bowl of steaming oil-splashed noodles, which was sprinkled with a handful of freshly picked wild onions by the kitchen staff. It smelled so good that Xu Zhihui almost licked the rim of the bowl clean.

After the staff officer took away the dishes and chopsticks, Xu Zhihui leaned tiredly in front of the charcoal fire, staring at a military map of Zhanjiang District marked with the word "top secret" in his hand.

After the troops left the Danfeng gas station in Bishan District yesterday, they had originally planned to march along the shortest route planned, heading south to force their way across the Jijiang Bridge.

But as soon as the troops entered the outskirts of Jiangjin District, they were taught a severe lesson by the poor road conditions, endless hordes of corpses, and the endless stream of mutated zombies, and they were badly beaten and bloodied!

Currently, 20% of the entire army’s combat casualties were caused by yesterday’s battle!

The 4500th Mixed Brigade, which had 77 men when it set out from Beibei District, now has only about 3500 men left, equivalent to the loss of two battalions of troops...

In the past, battles against zombies were all defensive battles, so Xu Zhihui didn’t feel it so deeply. But yesterday, a battle to break through a horde of zombies almost made him doubt his life.

The density and fluidity of the zombie swarm was so high that he felt as if he was facing quicksand instead of zombies!

As soon as one shot blew up a gap, it was filled with zombies pouring in from behind in the blink of an eye. As soon as a volley of bullets from a heavy machine gun killed a group of people, more zombies came up from behind!

And as the army continued to advance towards the center of Jiangjin District, the resistance and pressure it faced also increased dramatically!

It was like a spear being thrust into a sticky swamp, with zombies surging in from all directions!

Not only was the defensive pressure maxed out, it was also directly exploded!

Thanks to the powerful defense of armored vehicles and the fierce firepower of heavy weapons, the combined battalion troops still have enough strength to maintain the continuity of firepower output.

But those civilian teams who only had light weapons and lacked tactical coordination suffered a great disaster!

Just fire alternately. The firepower density is not enough to stop the zombies from advancing towards us.

The whole team should open fire at full power, but you can only be a real man for three seconds, and you will suffer when you reload bullets!

You should know that the zombies are no longer the second-level disabled people at the beginning of the apocalypse, but have become second-level athletes!

The golden age when a retired college student could strangle zombies naked is completely gone!

If you dare to give the zombies a chance for close combat now, with the protection level of civilian vehicles, it won’t take long for them to crush you and your vehicle into pieces!

There is no solution!

And the most puzzling thing is that the civilian uniformed troops who have not received professional military training do not know how to alternately fire bullets.

Or in other words, the logic is all right, but it will be useless once you put it into practice!

As the zombies swarmed up, everyone forgot all the plans they had made before. They all roared and shot at each other, then everyone changed bullets and waited to die.

What's worse, some people were so nervous that they threw the grenade that was supposed to be thrown out of the window into the carriage instead, causing the whole carriage to explode!

So this is why we emphasize a lot of training, because the situation on the battlefield is generally tense and complicated, and it is difficult for people to remain calm and sober facing the dangers that can happen anytime and anywhere.

Most of the time it depends on daily training, instinctive habits and conditioned reflexes developed over time.

Think about it, as an ordinary person, when you play a shooting game, you are the one who dies, but you get so nervous that you scream.

The reality is just giving you a gun, and you still dream of becoming a soldier king?

..

When the tragic fighting situation of the civilian clothing team was reported to the command center, Xu Zhihui was forced to urgently change his plan and made the decision to abandon the advance and turn around to retreat.

Although doing so would waste a great deal of time and make the Zhanjiang gathering area more dangerous, if it were not done, the civilian outfit would surely be destroyed before the Zhanjiang gathering area!

Perhaps after crossing the Jijiang Yangtze River Bridge, only the combined battalion will be left in the entire 77th Mixed Brigade.

However, during the retreat, the unprofessional and poorly compliant civilian team caused another big mess.

Due to the uncontrolled spread of terror, the organized retreat inexplicably turned into a rout!

This resulted in the 77th Mixed Brigade suffering the heaviest casualties since its march south. After the war, it was estimated that the rout caused at least 700 deaths!

Fortunately, the 77th Mixed Brigade had not yet advanced deep into the enemy territory, and fortunately, the combined battalion was equipped with armored vehicles.

Otherwise, how would Xu Zhihui have the chance to eat noodles and warm himself by the fire here?

I'm afraid he and his combined battalion had been cut off by the chaotic civilian-industrialized troops yesterday and suffocated to death in Jiangjin District by the zombie horde.

Although he wasn't suffocated to death, he wasn't in much better condition either.

After the formation was reversed, the combined battalion went from being the vanguard to the rear guard. In front of them were blocked by the skinny and chaotic civilian-clad troops, and behind they were pursued by the zombie hordes coming from all directions. The retreat process was extremely painful and the cost of breaking through was extremely heavy!

If it weren't for his faith as a soldier, at some moments when he was so angry that he had a cerebral hemorrhage, Xu Zhihui couldn't help but want to order the civilian troops to open fire!

According to post-war statistics, in this battle, except for one armored company responsible for the rearguard, the rest of the companies in the combined battalion also suffered varying degrees of damage.

If the casualties of the entire battalion were added up, it would be almost equivalent to the destruction of two regular companies.

This made Xu Zhihui almost furious!

Two established companies!

My combined battalion only has 5 companies in total!!!

The real mission hasn't even started yet! And it's already halfway gone? ? ? !

Damn it! What a beast! What a beast! !

...

If the casualties were caused by normal combat, Xu Zhihui would not be so sad. Death in war is inevitable. Since you have chosen to join the army, you must be aware of this!

But the key point is that the casualties of these two companies were very miserable!

If the civilian uniform team had not suddenly collapsed, let alone escaped unscathed, at least the combined battalion would not have suffered such heavy casualties!

Just a few reckless driving and crashing and broken-down cars have caused a traffic jam along the way!

So he felt aggrieved and felt it was not worth it for these soldiers who had trained hard for many years!

They clearly have a bigger stage and a higher ceiling!

However, due to the insane matching mechanism, they who should have become the kings were trapped and died in this unknown black iron battlefield...

In the future, military and civilian armed forces cannot be mixed. This is a lesson learned by the combined battalion with blood and tears!

..

After the war, Xu Zhihui, who had regrouped the troops, convened a meeting of all the cadres in the brigade on the pretext of holding a summary meeting. At the meeting, he caught more than a dozen captains of the civilian clothing teams for target practice!

The reason is disobedience on the battlefield!!!

This is why he was so angry after seeing the friction between the civilian team and even said directly that they could suppress it by force!

With such insects, how can we rescue the survivors in Zhanjiang District?

After yesterday's battle, Xu Zhihui has been completely awakened!

It is clear that the makeshift team of the 77th Mixed Brigade is essentially a mess!

It's okay to fight a few easy battles and bully small-scale lonely zombies, but when faced with real pressure, they will turn into dandelions in seconds and scatter into stars in the sky!

When we were gathering the troops yesterday, Xu Zhihui made us laugh!

The synthetic battalion I led had just broken contact with the zombie swarm, and some BYD civilian uniform teams had already fled to Bishan District...

Xu Zhihui had no doubt that if he contacted the other party a little later in the evening, the other party might have already arrived in Beibei.

If given the chance, Xu Zhihui really wants to give a "Friend of Zombies" award to each of the dozen or so war criminals who were executed yesterday!

After all, they cooperated with the zombie swarm and inflicted incredible damage on themselves as the synthetic battalion!

...

To this

In fact, the civilian team also has their own difficulties. Most of them were just ordinary people before the apocalypse, and they were just ordinary people with weapons after the apocalypse. It has only been a short time since they learned how to shoot.

They are barely competent in carrying out civilian tasks in normal times, but when it comes to military tasks, it is really overestimating them!

I thought that this trip south was just to follow the troops and gain some military merit, but who knew that BYD Xu Zhihui really treated them as elite troops?

Being surrounded by zombies feels like rowing a small boat on the deep sea where a storm is gathering. The extreme fear can cause chest tightness, dry retching and even incontinence.

I can't even control my urine, how can I control the accelerator and steering wheel? ?

I don't know who drove my car to Bishan District! !
