Thinking of this, Zhang Xiaoqiang felt a little uneasy. Wuhai City was the main direction he had decided to attack. It was also the first prefecture-level city he had decided to recover. He had not expected such a dangerous crocodile to be hiding here. If they ran into it without knowing anything, the best outcome would be for both sides to suffer heavy losses. The biggest possibility was that they would fall into the zombies' trap and suffer heavy losses.
The situation of the zombies had changed. The zombies of Silver Creek, who had always believed in numbers, could no longer sit still. Countless arrows of various sizes extended from the back of the Wu Hai zombie, forming a new encirclement that enveloped the Wu Hai zombie.
Unexpectedly, after the Black Sea Zombie exterminated the tens of thousands of Silver Stream Zombies on the flank, it turned from a sickle into a huge circle. This huge circle was not static, but it was slowly rotating. The rotating speed became faster and faster, and finally, it became a huge millstone, grinding all the arrows that extended towards it flat.
"What a monster …"
Zhao Jun shouted out what everyone was thinking. Wasn't this unknown Z2 zombie hiding in Wuhai a monster?
Yesterday's battle was still a little rough, but in the morning, the pincer attack had begun to take shape. By noon, the luring of the enemy had reached a certain standard. When there was still space for them to make a detour, they formed a sickle formation and cut off half of the wings of the sea of corpses surrounding the Silver Stream. Now with the rotating millstone formation, the tactics were dazzling and even made most of the commanding officers in the room feel ashamed.
"We can't let this Z2 live. If it continues to grow, it will be humanity's ultimate enemy. A genius tactical commander, once it obtains a large number of zombies, I'm afraid no one in the world can stop it …" Shi Yuanye said with a trembling voice.
He had known that the Z-type was terrifying, but he had not expected it to be this terrifying. The weaker the Z-type was, the scarier its growth speed would be. It was just like how a child in a big city would never be able to take care of himself or herself better than a child in the countryside.
"Let's wait and see. It's too early to talk about this. No matter how talented Wu Hai's zombies are, their military strength is their biggest obstacle. Moreover, they are our most loyal ally …"
Zhang Xiaoqiang's words made all the commanding officers smile. The war between the zombies was beneficial to them. The more powerful Wu Hai's zombies were, the more damage they could cause to the Silver Creek zombies. They hoped that the zombies on both sides would perish together. That way, they could just be the fisherman.
The huge black millstone crushed all the arrows, but they were just the unconscious vanguard of the Silver Creek zombies. The huge red ocean suddenly tilted and covered the black millstone.
The millstone seemed to have sunk into mud in the sea of red. The speed of its rotation was getting slower and slower, and its thickness was also decreasing rapidly. Seeing this, many people broke out in cold sweat for their ally. This was a hurdle, and if they couldn't get past it, the Black Sea Zombies would be drowned by countless zombies.
"Order the first main force in the front to launch 12 rounds of rocket attacks at the Silver Creek zombies …"
The millstone of the Wu Hai zombies shattered under the pressure of the red ocean. Zhang Xiaoqiang could no longer sit still. The longer the Wu Hai zombies could hold on, the more advantageous it would be for them. Zhang Xiaoqiang was not exaggerating, but Zhang Xiaoqiang's true feelings. Since his ally couldn't hold on any longer, he had to help.
No one dared to question Zhang Xiaoqiang's order. Following Zhang Xiaoqiang's order, three small airplanes flew above the sea of zombies, ready to evaluate the result of the rocket attacks.
The next moment, more than a hundred thick and long rockets flashed in the camera's view. Following that, a bright flame flashed, and a hundred and twenty huge black mushrooms burst out from the group of zombies below. Smoke filled the air, and the plane nimbly flipped through the smoke. In the dense sea of zombies, a hundred and twenty huge craters formed a brown spot on the black carpet.
Not a single rocket from the first wave was wasted, and it blasted a large area of empty space in the sea of zombies. But in less than three minutes, all the empty space was filled with new zombies. No one knew how many zombies had died, and there was no effect.
On the other hand, Zhang Xiao Qiang and Shi Yuan Ye knew that it was effective. They had at least delayed the Zombie Horde's reinforcements by 3 minutes. Although 3 minutes wasn't even enough time to light a cigarette, it was enough to create a butterfly effect on the battlefield. Now, they would have to see what the remaining 200,000 Black Sea Zombies had up their sleeves.
In the beginning, the number of Black Sea zombies was around 500,000. After 2 days of fighting, they had lost less than 300,000. Although they had brought at least 500,000 casualties to the Silver Creek zombies, the number of zombies in Silver Creek was too large. The zombies in the rear constantly replenished their numbers, causing more zombies to gather at the front.
In addition, the Wu Hai zombies had been forced out of the main battlefield, and all the corpses had fallen into the hands of the Silver Creek zombies. As time passed, the Silver Creek zombies would also evolve, and new evolved zombies would appear in batches.
At that time, although the numbers had been reduced, the quality of the Silver Creek zombies would continue to increase, and the Wu Hai zombies would only become weaker.
On the zombie battlefield, the scene of countless zombies clashing was magnificent, but the changes were relatively slow. Although the launch speed of the rocket vehicles was not fast, it was much faster than the zombies' changing formation. For a moment, the speed at which the zombies were replenished could not keep up with the speed at which they were destroyed by the rockets. After the twelve rounds of rockets had ended, Zhang Xiaoqiang was elated to see the results of the rockets. He ordered another twelve rounds of rockets to be fired.
With Zhang Xiaoqiang's rockets attacking the Silver Creek zombies, the previously broken formation of the Wu Hai zombies actually recovered during the battle with the Silver Creek zombies, forming a new millstone. In the counterattack, the Silver Creek zombies that had been separated from the main formation by the rockets slowly disintegrated...
When the afterglow of the sun slowly faded on the horizon, the zombies on both sides were separated by the 2,880 122mm rockets. Finally, the stalemate resumed. The Silver Creek zombies occupied the main battlefield in the morning, while the Wu Hai zombies occupied the battlefield in the afternoon. The corpses on both sides of the battlefield became the zombies' energy source. For a moment, the zombies on both sides of the battlefield began to eat.
As the sun set, the small reconnaissance aircraft could not be used. Crescent Moon and Li Zhongyue were sent out again to monitor the movements of the zombies at night. Ding Ziqiang was still leading his main force to continue to hide, waiting for new orders.
In the fierce battle with the zombies, Zhang Xiaoqiang's army did not make any moves. The soldiers below did not know that the battle at the frontline had nothing to do with them. Most of them were anxiously waiting for new orders.
Zhang Xiaoqiang and all the officers had an exceptionally peaceful dinner. Then, they made a bed on the floor of the command center. Before they could sleep, Meow came to find him with two evil dogs. He pulled him back to his own tent to sleep. Obviously, Meow was not used to sleeping alone in a tent.
Lying on the bed that had a familiar smell, Zhang Xiaoqiang peacefully closed his eyes. Not long after, he was woken up by the barking of the dogs outside. He immediately jumped up and rushed outside.
Compared to the night in the rear, the night in the military camp was no different from before the apocalypse. There were bright searchlights, patrolling soldiers, and sentries standing guard everywhere. Zhao Jun and Shi Yuanye stood outside the warning line of the two mutated dogs with messy clothes, anxiously looking in Zhang Xiaoqiang's direction.
"The Silver Creek zombies launched a surprise attack in the middle of the night. The Wu Hai zombies have already been defeated. We do not know the specific situation. The report from the scouts in the front is very messy. There is almost no useful information. The Wu Hai zombies also did not insist on defending Wu Hai City. They fled to the west of the grassland. Hundreds of thousands of Silver Creek zombies followed closely behind the Wu Hai zombies. Ding Ziqiang, who is in the front, asked us what should we do..."
