Chapter 842: Deployment of defense lines and start of war

The combat troops relied on the surrounding environment to set up a perfect defense line. The terrain here could only allow the zombies to attack from the front, but not sneak attacks from the sides and rear. ˜”*°•.˜˜.•°*”˜

When the armed helicopter returned without success, the zombie groups that followed the armed helicopter also came to the outside of the defense line.

"Ready to fight!"

There are a large number of landmines buried at the front of the defense line, and they are not the kind of anti-infantry mines that can only be disabled but not fatal, but the kind of powerful landmines that explode when touched.

The explosion alone can blow zombies with a radius of fifteen meters into pieces, ensuring a one-shot kill, and it has certain killing capabilities even from fifteen meters away.

There are exactly 10,000 such landmines densely packed, and each mine is 20 meters apart. This is the minimum safe distance. Even if the distance is shorter than half a meter, a chain explosion will form, which is extremely wasteful. Behavior.

In addition to the dense mine array, there is also a dense firepower network composed of a large number of heavy machine guns and anti-aircraft machine guns. Even if the corpse group successfully breaks through the mine array, they will hit the metal storm formed by bullets head on.

In addition, there are single-shot high-destruction equipment such as tank guns, rocket launchers, and anti-equipment sniper rifles that are also on standby. These weapons are a bit wasteful to deal with ordinary zombies, so their mission is to snipe mutant zombies.

Especially those power-type mutant zombies and shield-type mutant zombies with rough skin and flesh. After such a long period of mutation, even a 7mm heavy machine gun cannot severely damage them in a short time, let alone a smaller caliber. Weapons, so if you want to deal with this kind of invulnerable mutated zombies, you must use weapons and equipment with larger caliber and more power.

Anti-materiel sniper rifles, rocket launchers and tank guns are perfectly qualified for this job.

After improvement, the Type 10 anti-materiel sniper rifle, which was originally a 7 mm caliber, has now become a 20 mm sniper cannon.

A 20mm sniper cannon can completely penetrate the body of a power-type mutant zombie or a shield-type mutant zombie, causing fatal damage.

However, due to the larger caliber, if you want to use a 20mm sniper cannon, you must use it with an exoskeleton armor. If there is no exoskeleton armor, the sniper cannon can only be used by fixing it on the ground.

If you use this weapon without wearing anything and without any protective measures, congratulations, you will get tickets to the orthopedic hospital and the right to use the ward for three months. If you are lucky, you can even get experience coupons for resection surgery.

Of course, if there are still mutant zombies that are lucky enough to break through the second line of defense, then they will face the absolute power of the New Light Gathering Area, the mobile mecha troops, that is, Gundam!

The mecha troops holding laser blades and laser weapons will make them realize what crushing means.

…

Soon, the battle started with an explosion.

The first unlucky zombie to step into the mine array was a speed mutant zombie. It chased the armed helicopter and stepped straight into the mine array, and then unfortunately stepped on a mine.

"boom!!"

With a loud noise, a burst of fire appeared in the position of the speed mutant zombie. The moment the speed mutant zombie stepped on the landmine, it was blown into hundreds of pieces of flesh and died. Can't die anymore.

And this explosion was like a firecracker with a fuse lit, exploding continuously.

As the zombies rushed into the mine array, more and more mines were detonated, and a large number of zombies were blown to pieces with loud explosions. The entire mine array was basically dyed dark red by the blood of the zombies.

The explosion of each landmine can take away a dozen zombies, and if it is denser, it can even take away dozens of zombies.

In this case, the number of corpses is reduced visibly.

But even so, these corpses did not stop and rushed into the mine formation as before.

If it were a few months before the apocalypse, then this situation would not be very special, but now that the apocalypse has happened for almost a year, it is a little unusual that these ordinary zombies are still dying incompetently.

As mentioned before, zombies will become more and more cunning as time goes by, and they will also develop a fear of death.

Therefore, once the number of dead zombies reaches a certain level, the current zombie group will immediately stop attacking and retreat back.

But now, no matter how many of their kind have died, these zombies have no intention of escaping. Instead, they rush into the mine array without any scruples and are killed as if they are sending themselves to death.

If there wasn't something controlling them, no one would believe it.

The 10,000 landmines were eventually used up, but the number of zombies killed by the mine array far exceeded five figures.

The number of zombies killed by landmines alone is at least 200,000. Two hundred thousand seems like a lot, but for a city with millions of people, these 200,000 are at most a drop in the bucket.

Of course, as a key city, most of the people here were placed in various official gathering places before the end of the world, so the number of zombies in this city will never exceed one million.

In other words, Cai Wenjie only needs to face the remaining 800,000 or so zombies to liberate the city.

When the dense zombies finally stepped on all the mines with their numerical advantage and were about to continue their attack, mortar shells one after another began to cover the entire minefield.

At the same time, heavy howitzers also began to play their role. Mortar shells and heavy howitzer grenades directly turned the minefield, which had already turned into a dark red area, into a firestorm again.

Those zombies who stepped into the minefield suffered a catastrophe again. A large number of zombies were blown to pieces before they could even walk out of the minefield.

Those zombies who escaped from the minefield by chance were torn to pieces by the high-density firepower network composed of heavy machine guns and anti-aircraft machine guns.

Under this two-pronged attack, the zombies could not step out of the minefield at all. During this period, their number dropped sharply. Even in the end, all the zombies who dared to step into the minefield were blown to death. The zombies were once again blocked outside the minefield and dared not approach.

They were really scared. In less than half an hour, they actually consumed more than 300,000 zombies, and most of the faster mutant zombies were blown into pieces. The remaining mutant zombies were also turned into pieces of meat on the ground under the sniper guns, tank guns, and rocket launchers.

Just when the zombies were about to retreat and leave this purgatory factory, a strong will affected their consciousness, making them involuntarily continue to rush towards the minefield.
