The 36 tanks had achieved a shocking result. When all the ammunition in the ammunition room had been emptied, the plowed ground was charred black. Regardless of whether it was the D2 or S2, they were all torn to shreds. The Z-type zombies were even burnt to a crisp, causing the entire zombie horde to fall into chaos. However, these tanks were also stuck in the midst of the zombie horde with countless pieces of flesh and bones.
When the tanks slowly broke free from the meat paste, the D3 zombies found their way to the tanks. The outcome was terrifying, the tank soldiers weren't killed by the D3 zombies, but by the zombies ramming into the tanks.
The small number of D3 zombies and S3 zombies found trouble with the tanks, ignoring the sea of people that were escaping. When the eight tanks, which were riddled with holes and covered in scratches and black flesh, charged out of the sea of zombies, the arduous battle finally came to an end.
The soldier, Tong Guowei, continued to shout out the situation with all his might, but the faces of the people who were listening changed. Although the soldier's report was ordinary, Zhou Xiong had controlled the other soldiers to supplement him, and a complete hellish breakout was presented in front of the crowd. Even a heavy tank could not withstand it, let alone the women and children with flesh and blood.
Only Zhang Xiaoqiang's expression was normal. On the contrary, he was thinking about the information that was beneficial to him. He knew better than anyone what it meant for the Z2 zombies to be eaten by the big bird. The Z-Types did not rely on eating humans to evolve, but they relied on eating other zombies of the same species. In the colony, new Z-Types would only appear after eating other Z-Types. Furthermore, there was only one Z2 zombie in the area, and it would not allow its subordinates to threaten its position. Only when the Z-Type died, could a new Z2 zombie appear.
However, the military's counterattack had turned more than 10 Z-Types into cannon fodder, and the Z2's corpse was eaten by the big bird. In other words, the number of Z-Types in Yinchuan City would not be too many. This was because they had to kill each other to evolve. As such, the number of zombies that could be controlled would not be too high, and the zombies that were not controlled would not be too much of a threat.
Just as Zhang Xiaoqiang was thinking about the situation in Yinchuan, the Yinchuan soldiers continued to tell Zhou Xiong everything that had happened …
After breaking out of the encirclement, they only had 8 tanks left, and half of the IFVs were lost. The transport vehicles were the best, with less than 10% of them lost. Out of 80,000 people, 60,000 managed to escape, which was a pleasant surprise. However, most of the cannons and heavy weapons were abandoned in the barracks. They did not bring much food, and the vehicles were filled with weapons and ammunition.
After the operation to clear the wounded, the remaining soldiers and civilians did not feel the joy of surviving, only fear and despair. At that moment, the whole troop was on the verge of collapsing. It was Ishihara who had led the troops to break out of the encirclement to suppress the voices of opposition, and led the remaining soldiers and 60,000 civilians to migrate.
There was no food, no clean water, and not even enough transportation. Thousands of civilians died by the roadside. At first, they did not care about the dead, but as the migrating troops moved forward, the zombies behind them smelled the rotting smell of the dead and chased after them. After a short battle, the large troop decided to collect the corpses, and at the same time, collect transportation to transport the women and children who could not walk fast.
It was not until they reached the Yellow River and conquered a few small towns that they were able to recover. They rested in a small town for a month, and due to the fear of the zombies chasing after them, they turned to Inner Mongolia. Originally, they wanted to go to Baotou and use the resources there to recover their strength, but they did not expect to encounter the Black Wolf Flag that was used to wipe out the Hans.
Although a large number of backbones died in battle, and although many of the higher-ups were destroyed with the helicopter crash, a large number of grass-roots officers and soldiers were still there. After they taught the wolf flag a harsh lesson, they were ambushed by the Ash Wolf Flag summoned by the Black Wolf Flag. After they achieved a difficult victory, the Blood Wolf Flag appeared. Although it did not attack and only spied from a distance, it cut off their path to Baotou.
In the end, they found a small town in the Helan Mountains and settled down. At the same time, they fought with the three Wolf Flags. For a while, they did not have the energy to care about the west, but Zhang Xiaoqiang took advantage of the situation to rise. Until the strong wind and heavy rain some time ago, they suffered heavy losses, and had to prepare to recover Salt Lake Town as a supply for their rear defense …
"Zhang Xiaoqiang, I've asked almost everything that needs to be asked. What else do you have to say?"
As an interrogator, Zhou Xiong did not have a trace of an official's aura. He was as wretched and greedy as ever. He nodded and bowed to Zhang Xiaoqiang, showing a flattering smile. Zhang Xiaoqiang did not object to his flattery. He immediately nodded and said, "Go to the Special Supply Department and get a bottle of white wine and three cartons of cigarettes. You did well this time. If there are more captives in the future, we will still need you. However, you have to learn some Mongolian. Otherwise, when you meet the soldiers of the Wolf Flag, how are you going to ask?"
Zhang Xiao Qiang casually said a few words, causing Zhou Xiong to perspire profusely, as he hurriedly agreed. It seemed that Zhang Xiao Qiang's last question had given him quite a fright.
Zhang Xiaoqiang had no choice but to ask Zhou Xiong to stay at the side. This Zhou Xiong had a lot of weaknesses. Other than being greedy and lazy, he was especially timid and did not want to offend anyone. When he spoke to Zhang Xiaoqiang, his legs began to tremble. If he was more courageous, he might be a great killing machine on the battlefield. At least, he was invincible in infiltration battles.
"Zhang Xiaoqiang, what should we do with these captives?"
The cavalry company commander asked Zhang Xiaoqiang with a hint of apprehension. He was born in the infantry and had a special camaraderie with regular soldiers who had served in the army. Although it did not stop them from fighting to the death, once the other party surrendered, he would not be able to do it.
Zhang Xiaoqiang looked at the corpses on the ground. After thinking for a while, he finally said, "Give them treatment and give them the best food.
"Treat them and give them the best food. Tell them that we won't kill them, but we need them to behave themselves in my city …"
This was the first time that Zhang Xiaoqiang used medicine on outsiders, which surprised the people around him. It should be known that Zhang Xiaoqiang had never treated the captives well. Now they were allies with Huang Jinqi, right?
However, there were still dozens of people working hard in Sumu Town. Ten of them were special experimental subjects who specially cooperated with the medical department to study the toxicity of various plants. They had made great contributions to Zhang Xiaoqiang's utilization of mutated plants.
The captives were still in a state of being bewitched by Zhou Xiong. They really treated him as a general. When they were driven away by the soldiers, they did not forget to ask about Zhou Xiong's experience. If this kind of bewitchment did not have a time effect, Zhou Xiong's ability was too terrifying. At least he could get that woman if he wanted to. If his brain was not filled with eating, drinking and smoking, Zhang Xiaoqiang would have ordered people to closely monitor him.
"By the way, Zhang Xiaoqiang, among the seriously injured people on our side, our own people have already taken medicine and almost all of them are out of danger. Those soldiers of Huang Jinqi have not yet. They have just simply bandaged their wounds. What do you think?"
This question really made Zhang Xiaoqiang confused. In his mind, Huang Jinqi was only a temporary cooperative relationship. No one could tell whether they would be enemies or friends in the future. Although they found a large number of medicinal materials in the Chinese Medicine Hospital in the county, there was no shortage of life-saving pills and hemostatic powder. However, these things were the most important strategic materials. It was still a little bit …
"Forget it. Just give them life-saving pills. Hemostatic powder is not needed. Aren't there a lot of western medicine?
Give them western medicine and guarantee that they will not die. Also, tell them that we gave them the best western medicine so that they will remember this favor … "
Zhang Xiaoqiang said his little plan without any shame. The infantry company commander understood what Zhang Xiaoqiang meant. Life-saving pills could make the people on the other side survive. Otherwise, if they did not die, it would be unreasonable. However, hemostatic powder could speed up the healing process. If it was distributed evenly, the quantity would not be enough. As for western medicine, basically no one wanted it anymore.
When the dead soldiers were buried outside the town, and the injured soldiers were transported to the county hospital, the crowd dispersed. Zhang Xiaoqiang returned to his residence with a heavy heart.
The new forces had seriously deviated from his plan. Although he already knew that there were survivors in the vicinity of Salt Lake Town, he did not expect them to be so powerful. He had killed the weakest Golden Wolf Flag, but he had lost no less than two battalions. His forces had never exceeded three battalions.
However, the enemy had easily resisted the attack of three Golden Wolf Flags and repelled two of them. Perhaps Tie Zhongyuan was complaining about the other Golden Wolf Flags, but he did not know that a fierce tiger from Silver Stream had beaten the Golden Wolf Flags to the point where they couldn't even tell north from north.
