"Order! Load the howitzer group with incendiary bombs! Direction 11 o'clock, distance 2500, fire a salvo! Fire!"
In the self-propelled howitzer position, after receiving the attack order from the headquarters, it immediately followed the command's order and launched a salvo at the target 2,500 meters away in the 11 o'clock direction. read

With a loud noise, dozens of artillery shells flew neatly towards the target 2,500 meters away.
In less than 4 seconds, the area 2,500 meters away turned directly into a sea of fire, and this 2,500 meters distance happened to be where the front troops of the mutant animals were located.
In other words, the salvo just now directly burned more than half of the mutant animals' front troops. Countless mutant animals, such as cattle, sheep, wolves, etc., all sacrificed their lives in this sea of fire. own body.
If these animals hadn't been infected, there would have been a barbecue party today to keep the many soldiers happy.
Hundreds of mutant animals were turned into a pile of charcoal in the fierce burning flames, while the mutant animals following the vanguard instinctively retreated dozens of meters, daring not to approach the sea of fire.
Unlike zombies transformed by humans, these animals mutated due to the virus have not lost their minds. To be precise, they have not lost a few instincts, such as fear of fire, fear of bright light, and fear of floods. ♚♞ ♦ ♦
However, this does not mean that the mutant animals will sit still and wait for death. Soon, the brief commotion gradually subsided under the roar of several leader-like mutant animals.
Then the entire group of mutant animals changed their blind attack, and instead followed a few mutant animals like their leaders, and began to avoid the sea of fire and prepare to go around from a distance.
If this was in ancient times, humans really had no way to stop these mutant animals. Unfortunately, every move of these mutant animals was within the detection range of the troops. Therefore, when a large number of mutant animals began to move intensively, the detection of the troops The officer immediately reported the situation to the headquarters.
The headquarters responded very quickly and immediately formulated a plan for the second bombardment based on the data sent by the scouts.
"Order! The howitzer position carries out continuous bombardment in the direction of 10 o'clock and 12 o'clock!"
"receive!"
The mutant animal group, led by several leaders, divided into two directions and prepared to attack the fortress of the large army in a roundabout way. Unfortunately, this was in vain.
Soon, the second bombardment began. Different from the first bombardment, this time the bombardment was more violent, the scope was wider, and it was continuous bombardment.
"Bang! Bang! Bang bang! Bang! Bang."
The continuous sound of artillery fire came from the artillery position at the rear. The sound was so loud that even the soldiers inside the fortress could hear it clearly.
"Good guy! I must have heard the sound of artillery fire more than ten times. Why is that unlucky guy so miserable that he has to suffer so many bombardments? There shouldn't even be any scum left by now."
"Yes, I remember that our artillery troops are equipped with vehicle-mounted howitzers, and they are the latest ones. I vaguely remember that the caliber of this howitzer is 205 mm."
"Holy crap! It's a real 205mm! This shot can blow up a residential building!"
"I heard that in order to carry this 205mm howitzer, the latest model of truck was specially equipped. While the size remains the same, its performance is almost twice that of the original truck, so carrying a 205mm howitzer is completely wrong."
The soldiers stationed inside the fortress couldn't help but start discussing the artillery positions behind because of the continuous sound of artillery fire from the rear. Some people said that they had seen the latest truck cannon, and they kept telling others about it.
While many soldiers were talking about it, the mutant animals outside suffered disaster. The continuous bombardment caused a large number of shells to explode around them, and sometimes the shells even directly hit the mutant animals.
When a 205mm howitzer shell explodes, its power is no joke. The explosion damage range can reach almost 100 meters or even longer.
In other words, a 205mm howitzer shell can theoretically kill all zombies or mutant animals within a radius of 100 meters. Of course, this is only theoretical. In reality, various factors must be added, such as howitzers. Whether the bullet landed in a plain area or a rugged mountainous area, did it effectively kill zombies when it exploded? After all, zombies cannot be killed without hitting their heads.
Of course, with the power of the 205mm howitzer, the earthquake can kill them even if they are hiding underground.
Almost instantly, the entire bombarded area turned into a blood-red hell. A large number of mutated animals were blown to pieces by howitzers. A large area of land was dyed blood-red by these mutant animals that were blown to pieces. Blood, pieces of flesh, torsos, and limbs were scattered everywhere.
The bombing lasted less than a minute. At least hundreds of mutant animals died under the bombardment, and their deaths were all miserable. Almost none of them had their whole bodies covered with blood.
Cai Wenjie, who was more than ten kilometers away, also felt the movement here, and as the troops got closer and closer to the fortress where the main force was located, the movement became louder and louder. In less than a while, the soldiers of the entire armored convoy They all felt the dull sound.
"Adjutant, order the convoy to stop! Contact the main force first to find out what happened."
"clear!"
Cai Wenjie immediately ordered the convoy to stop moving forward, and then ordered his adjutant, Qin Feng, to get in touch with the main force to find out what happened ahead.
Although Cai Wenjie himself could use the system satellite to observe the scene, in order to avoid errors, he still asked his adjutant to contact the main force.
In less than three minutes, adjutant Qin Feng rushed to Cai Wenjie and said.
"Report! Ten kilometers away from us, there is a group of mutant animals trying to attack the base camp. They are now being bombed by our howitzer unit. It is expected that most of the mutant animals will be eliminated in five minutes. The base camp It is recommended that we wait until the mutant animal group is completely eliminated before converging."
"Really? I know, thank you for your hard work."
"It's not hard work!"
"Let's do this. Let the convoy stop and wait for half an hour. During this period, it can move freely, but the necessary security work must be done!"
"Yes! I will convey it to the commanders immediately!"
"Thank you for your hard work, go quickly"
"yes!"
Qin Feng first saluted Cai Wenjie, and then started to notify the captains of each team.
