"Boom! Boom! Boom!" The sound of a heavy object hitting the ground came, and the soldiers who were familiar with this sound changed their faces.
Sure enough, the searchlights of the central sentry tower of the military barracks swept past, and several fat living dead, three meters tall, attacked the steel defense line formed by the soldiers.
There are no tanks temporarily stationed here, only a few ordinary howitzers. The battalion commander in charge of the soldiers can't guarantee that these howitzers can hit those big guys.
"Acting Commander! What should I do?" some soldiers asked in a panic.
"Bazooka! Go! Bring me five more!" His face gradually became grim, and the acting head of the battalion commander's rank shouted to the rear.
The captain was killed, and now the battalion captain has the final say.
"Yes!" Several soldiers hurried to the rear.
The battle started too suddenly and it was too chaotic. An hour ago, all the soldiers were fighting for the sudden mutation.
One hour later, under Ma Sling’s orders and assignments, all the surviving soldiers began to defend around the central tent.
All the living dead born in the center of the barracks were shot to death. Now the ground is full of red blood splattered by the soldiers and black blood left by the living dead.
This mechanized brigade doesn't have much, but it has a lot of weapons and equipment, and there is no money for bullets. There is a small backup warehouse in the middle of the barracks. You don't need to worry about running out of ammunition even for a day and night.
The new four-headed power-type living dead in front of him caused the battalion commander to drip two lines of sweat on his forehead. He did not forget how he became the acting commander. Half an hour ago, he was with these four guys. It had to be exactly the same monster, crushed his head into a meat ball, and swallowed his belly.
The killing of the few power-type living dead was a waste of the soldiers in the barracks. Later, a few legendary Taoist priests took action to help them kill the enemy.
"Mad, are the five rocket launchers enough?" The battalion commander had no idea, he could only hope that these five rocket launchers would blow the four big guys to pieces.
"Unfortunately, there are only a few tanks, otherwise one would be good!" The camp slapped angrily on the temporary fortifications.
The entire mechanized brigade has a total of forty tanks and fifty armored infantry vehicles, but now only six are used by them in the middle of the camp, and the rest are scattered all over the camp. The engines have not caught fire yet.
Those tanks were trapped among the many living dead, and the soldiers couldn't get them.
Furthermore, as the battle became more intense and the use of powerful weapons such as rocket launchers and howitzers, up to now, more than one idle tank has been accidentally wounded and detonated.
Those tanks used to be soldiers' baby bumps, but now they have become brilliant sparks.
The five rocket launchers were quickly carried back by a few soldiers, and the four dead men approached to a position less than twenty meters in front of the defensive line.
These power-type living dead are slow, but their defense power is several times that of the speed-type living dead, and their larger size gives them stronger strength and anti-strike ability.
"Boom me!" Just after the battalion commander's order, five rockets flicked their white tail flutes towards the place where the four living dead gathered.
Because the electromagnetic positioning equipment in the barracks all failed, whether it was the aiming of the rockets or the firing of the tanks, it was the soldiers' planes.
The training in the past was not in vain. Five rockets had no satellite positioning and accurately hit the four dead people.
"Boom!" Five consecutive short-range explosions produced air waves, directly flying off the soldiers who were observed by several probes after the temporary fortifications.
The battalion commander, who had been watching the battle before him, didn’t retreat. The flames gradually extinguished. He stared at the situation inside the flames. The height of the flames gradually decreased. Finally, when it reached a height of two meters, the battalion commander finally saw inside. There was only one living dead with half of his body crippled, crawling forward without giving up.
"Someone, go and end it for me!" As soon as the battalion commander ordered, two soldiers rushed out over there.
They were holding a pile of explosives in one hand, and the explosive strength of the rocket bombs did not completely kill it. Ordinary grenade didn't work at all. They had to use the special c4 for blasting.
"Dididi!" After a short burst of sound, the c4 bomb exploded around the power-type living dead. This time the direction of the explosion was predicted by specialized engineers, and it did not affect the soldiers behind.
When the smoke of the bomb cleared and the **** of a few power-type living dead was not left, all the soldiers who saw this scene were happy from the heart.
But not a few seconds after the happy time, the new monster rushed up again.
"Damn! It's a mutant creature this time! Be careful, don't let these beasts get close!" The battalion commander yelled.
In front of the defensive line, seven or eight sheep-shaped mutant beasts with red eyes appeared.
Ma Sling decided to come to Wu Township at the beginning, but it was still a problem. There is no virgin forest nearby, but there are many animals such as chickens, dogs, cattle and sheep raised by the villagers.
These mutant beasts that have been transformed by the negative energy storm have all evolved to be larger. The sudden increase in size not only increases their bloodliness, but also increases their appetite.
Hungry, they eat everything. The winter vegetation is just a little bit. Soon after they ate it up, these animals took aim at the soldiers who were fighting fiercely with the living dead.
Because the living dead contain too many elements with dark attributes and death attributes in their bodies, except for some mutant beasts whose brains are transformed by negative energy like to eat, most of the other mutant beasts prefer to eat humans with neutral taste.
So hundreds of mutant beasts began to attack the barracks.
In the command tent of the barracks center, more than a dozen officers walked back and forth, reporting to Commander Ma inside.
The negative energy storm has infected a group of people so much that the current headquarters seems a bit deserted.
Desolateness refers to the fact that there are fewer people, but the level of busyness is more than before.
Looking at the casualty report just sent by the Chief of Staff before him, Ma Sling was bleeding.
Two thousand soldiers who survived the baptism of cosmic rays smoothly, in just one hour, the battle damage rate exceeded 40%!
If it wasn't for their opponents to be monsters with irrational humanity, the team would have collapsed.
It is these ferocious monsters that make the soldiers burst out of unimaginable willpower and combat power in despair.
The battle was very tenacious. Although there were more living dead and a lot of mutant beasts that got in, the soldiers still used machine guns and cannons to stop them again and again.
However, this does not mean that the crisis has been lifted. The report of nearly 300 Wuxiang mutant beasts has once again disrupted Ma Sling's position.
These mutated beasts are generally thicker in size, not to mention bloodthirsty and warlike. When ordinary bullets are hit, in addition to causing slight wounds, more effects are to anger them!
If one doesn’t deal with it, it’s not good. The remaining thousands of them will have to explain here!
"Did you think about it clearly?" When the other soldiers threw their heads outside and sprinkled their blood, Locke was like a spectator, lying on the chair in front of Commander Ma.
"I can't promise you, because I don't have the authority!" Ma Sling said word by word.
What do you mean by taking advantage of fire? This is called taking advantage of fire!
Ma Sling just seemed to be listening to a madman dreaming, what does this guy want? what? What does he want? !
He even asked Ma Commander for an intercontinental missile! To nuclear weapons!
Don’t need too many? Twenty or thirty is enough? !
Ma Sling really wanted to slap this brat boy with a slap.
His face was bluish and purple with anger, and thinking of relying on this person's force, Ma Sling took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down.
"You don't need to give it to me personally, you just need to tell me where the base is where those things are stored, and I will fetch it myself." Locke said with his legs up.
Ma Sling's face is still a bit cloudy.
The sound of the ‘boom’ fighting outside is stimulating Ma Sling’s nerves all the time. Whether the mutant beasts are about to hit the barracks, this is what he needs to consider most at the moment.
There are still two intact armed helicopters in the barracks, but Ma Commander did not expect to use this thing to save the lives of the young and old. The endless mutant birds in the sky cannot be handled by two armed helicopters.
Another huge explosion sounded, this time closer to the command post, and even the overhead lighting was stunned.
After hesitating for less than half a minute, Ma Sling finally made a decision and said calmly, "I can give you some addresses, but there is no guarantee of how much reserves there are. There are some things that I am not qualified to know."
'Swipe' Ma Sling marked several points on the map next to him, and then rolled up the map.
He did not rush to hand over the map to Locke, but said again, "These mutant beasts are not worth the price. There are still about 10,000 living dead in Wuxiang. I want you to block them for me!"
Wuxiang is a medium-sized town at any rate. There are 20,000 residents here all year round. Excluding some of the surviving residents and those who have not been mutated, Wuxiang still has about 10,000 living dead.
This is the heaviest burden on Ma Sling's heart. If you want to establish a base in this area and gather survivors, the living dead in Wuxiang must be eliminated.
"Ten thousand heads..." Locke frowned.
The strength of these living dead is generally in the entry-level attendant stage. This weak human being must rely on guns and firearms to fight against, and he can strangle a piece of it with a whirlwind of vindictiveness.
The only thing that is more difficult is that these living dead have inherited the unique immortality of necromantic creatures, and their brains must be cut off to kill them.
Even if Locke could crush him with an overwhelming posture, more than 10,000 heads would be cut off, and he would be exhausted to death.
But seeing Ma Sling's serious look, Locke pondered for a few seconds, and finally nodded in agreement.
Ma Sling asked Locke to "block" them. Locke didn't have so much time to waste. He wanted to do it once and for all.
"Tomorrow afternoon, you will let your soldiers go to Wuxiang to collect their bodies!" Locke left a sentence and walked outside.
"What about these mutant beasts?" Commander Ma chased it out, still roaring from outside.
"Look at it!" Locke grinned, and he patted his pocket.
I haven't let you out for so long, so it's time for you to breathe in the fresh air of this plane.
