These ten minutes are ten minutes of intense output, and also the most enjoyable ten minutes.
All the soldiers can shoot as much as they want, but there are not enough zombies to fight.
There were four to five thousand zombies that poured out of the bridgehead. They were all beaten to pieces by the desperate shooting of the soldiers!
Corpses and blood were everywhere, and the torrent of zombies were beaten back alive into the bridge.
On Tang Zheng's side, people or chariots were constantly raising stars.
There is a Type 15 tank that was upgraded to Enhanced Two Stars during the battle.
After being strengthened to two stars, the armor of this tank is already comparable to that of a main battle tank, and it can fire as many as fifty training shells every day.
"If I had unlimited money, it wouldn't matter how many zombies I had, just taking turns shooting at the soldiers would be enough to solve everything."
"But it's a pity that the output at this moment will consume at least tens of thousands or even more than 20,000 gold."
"Even if there is one million gold, I'm afraid it won't be able to support the full shooting intensity for two or three hours."
Ten minutes passed quickly, and almost everyone ran out of ammunition.
But it doesn't matter, as soon as twelve o'clock comes, everyone's bullets are filled up again.
But this time we can't attack like we just did. The battle returns to the regular mode, with everyone fighting in a cycle to ensure continued combat effectiveness.
The tide of corpses that had been beaten back surged out again.
They advance slowly, but for every meter they advance, they have to pay the price of at least hundreds of zombie deaths.
The artillery position at the back once again showed its power after having artillery shells, but their main attack was not the zombies on the bridgehead, but the zombies on the other side of the river.
The artillery's constant bombardment took away countless zombies. Their continuous bombardment ensured that the zombies on the bridge never reached saturation, and also greatly eased the pressure on the defenders.
But despite this, the pressure on the Light Chasing Army is still considerable.
Zombies have been being killed, and the number killed has been impossible to count. It is conservatively estimated to be around 70,000 to 80,000. However, the number of zombies has not decreased significantly, and they continue to pour out.
At the edge of this temporary square, the pile of corpses kept expanding.
This pile of corpses is an enemy of the Light Chasing Army. They will block the firing of bullets and slow down the killing efficiency.
The soldiers had to shoot one by one to kill the zombies that crossed the pile of corpses, but those corpses would roll down and the pile of corpses would become larger, gradually approaching the light-chasing army's position.
A crisis occurred at two o'clock in the afternoon.
At this time, the light-chasing army's refreshed ammunition had been used up, and the soldiers purchased ammunition once.
After several hours of continuous fighting, the iron-clad man was also a little tired.
At this time, seven or eight mutated zombies actually gathered in one direction and posed a local danger.
About sixty meters away from the front line of the position, seven or eight mutated zombies rushed through the pile of corpses and roared down.
Four of the armored ones attracted a lot of firepower, while the three agile zombies took the opportunity to break through the fire blockade.
An agile zombie was shot in the head by a sniper ten meters away from the position.
The other two rushed across a distance of ten meters in two steps, jumped over the armored vehicle in one leap, and rushed directly into the position.
The sharp claws waved, and the six warriors fell.
Five of them were injured, and one, a two-star enhanced soldier, had his throat accidentally slashed.
The military dogs waiting at the back rushed forward and did not let the two zombies continue to wreak havoc.
Soon, two agile zombies were torn apart by military dogs. The four-star strengthened military dogs were able to suppress such agile zombies alone.
On the contrary, humans, no matter how skilled they are, are somewhat powerless against such beast-like things.
The crisis lasted less than a minute, but it caused death among Tang Zheng's troops for the first time.
The five injured soldiers all saved their lives with the help of medical soldiers. They would be fine if they continued to receive treatment for a few days. However, the soldier who cut his throat fell forever.
Tang Zheng also felt uncomfortable when he saw this scene.
He knows that war will kill people, and he has tried his best to improve logistics and medical treatment to avoid deaths as much as possible, but no one can prevent this from happening forever.
"Let our comrade be settled first. Today's battle will be over soon and we can say goodbye to him."
Seeing that it was already past two o'clock in the afternoon, Tang Zheng felt that today's battle was almost over.
One last attack wave, and today's battle will be over.
At the last moment, Tang Zheng's troops burst out with fire again, suppressing the zombies that had advanced a hundred meters away from the square again.
Then five Type 15 light tanks entered the battle.
These five tanks, four with one star and one with two stars, have all become very powerful. Their tracks roared forward, forcefully pushing the zombies back to the bridgehead.
The shells were fired almost at the top of the zombies, and the machine guns roared crazily, pushing back the zombies' rush again.
On the left and right sides of the bridge, rocket launcher soldiers and anti-aircraft missile soldiers went into battle, constantly firing close-range artillery shells, trying to suppress the corpses in the middle of the bridge.
When the bridge was finally cleared, Tang Zheng rushed over again on his motorcycle.
He once again added a city wall here at the bridge head.
The group of corpses that were separated by the city wall and had been beaten all day long could not pass the bridge no matter how they roared. They could only beat the wall in vain and try to climb up.
Tang Zheng's troops quickly ceased fire at the rear. Only the rocket launcher warriors fired a few rockets in the distance to attract the attention of the zombies, and then quickly withdrew.
The zombies here at Qiaotou gradually lost their targets and were no longer so violent.
"Phew~! It's finally over."
"I killed almost 80,000 zombies today, if not 100,000. I used some of yesterday's bullets, all the spare bullets refreshed today, and purchased two more bullets."
"I hope this battle can end within three days."
Tang Zheng didn't like such a cruel battle. The main thing was that after a battle, many zombies were beaten under the bridge, many people were annihilated on the bridge, and a large number of people were burned. In this way, they can be collected
The funds have become much less.
Tang Zheng spent a total of more than 37,000 gold today, which is considered to be the largest consumption ever.
Order the soldiers to collect funds, and collect as much as they can.
Tang Zheng, on the other hand, led the soldiers from the guard platoon to bury his dead comrades.
As the burial place, Tang Zheng chose the basement of an abandoned building.
After putting in a few cigarettes and performing a simple funeral ceremony, Tang Zheng took the lead in saluting.
"I no longer remember your name, but I remember your appearance. You are here, watching how the place you fought for changes back to the prosperous world step by step."
"May the heroic spirit live forever! Salute!"
Behind him, the soldiers from the guard platoon followed Tang Zheng and saluted in unison.
Although the soldiers of the system were purchased, Tang Zheng did not regard them as tools, but as real comrades, because they themselves were living people.
"Blow up this basement and let him rest here forever. He won't have to be disturbed by zombies after his death."
He Xue carried out the mission and asked Tang Zheng for some explosives, and soon produced an explosive pack.
There was a boom, an explosion sounded, the abandoned building collapsed, and the comrades rested forever.
After burying his comrades, Tang Zheng returned to the front line.
The collection work this time was not easy. From three o'clock to dark, the soldiers collected fourteen thousand gold.
Too many zombie corpses fell into the river, and too many funds were burned.
Real gold is not afraid of fire, but gemstones are different.
Diamonds are made of carbon and will burn at a high temperature of 800 degrees, and rubies will also burn at a high temperature of 900 degrees.
As for Tang Zheng's flamethrower, the temperature is generally above one thousand degrees, or even around fifteen hundred degrees.
Therefore, during this search, almost no gems were found, and the income was greatly reduced.
After calculating today's accounts, Tang Zheng lost 23,000 gold and only had 80,000 in capital.
This was Tang Zheng's first loss since he got the system, and he was really not used to it.
Looking at the gold shop on the other side of the river, Tang Zheng only hoped to open the Heping Bridge and enter the gold shop as soon as possible, so that he could get his money back and make a lot of money at once.
After all, the zombie horde is coming, and without a large amount of reserve funds, this battle will be difficult or even impossible to win.
"Have the statistics of today's victory been calculated?"
Tang Zheng asked the correspondent behind him.
The correspondent communicated with several company commanders again and reported to Tang Zhenghui: "General, the statistics are out. Today, more than 80,000 zombies have been wiped out. In addition, about 40,000 zombies have fallen into the river. Now in the river
Some shallow areas are crowded with zombies, and many have been washed downstream by the river, so we can’t count them at the moment.”
"How many more are there on the other side of the river?"
"General, there are probably about 300,000 more corpses left. They were attracted by today's battle. If we continue to the south, there will be more corpses."
Tang Zheng silently calculated: "80,000 were annihilated, 40,000 were thrown into the water, the total is 120,000, and there are still about 300,000 left. It will be difficult to end it in two days."
"General, there shouldn't be much of a problem. After today's battle, our troops have generally been upgraded to stars, and their combat effectiveness has been raised to another level. There is no problem in annihilating a hundred thousand people tomorrow. Including the part that fell into the water, within two days
That’s almost it.”
Tang Zheng nodded slightly: "Okay, then do your best. I'll go and see the corpses on the other side of Fengcheng. If they set out yesterday, they would be able to reach Chasing Light City in five days. The time left for us
Not a lot anymore.”
Ning Yuwei said from the side: "General, there probably isn't much time left for the alliance."
Tang Zheng shook his head slightly: "Although there is not much time left for them, the alliance is unreliable. Even if they are willing to help, they cannot be the opponent of the zombies, so we still have to rely on ourselves."
"Oh, by the way, let's ask Guo Yun if there has been any progress in mapping. We can't just be busy with internal affairs and forget our roots."
The correspondent wanted to contact Guo Yun immediately, but at this time Guo Yun actually took the initiative to contact the correspondent.
"Wu Di, tell the general that I have completed the drawing of the arsenal."
"Now the city needs a lot of copper. With copper, we can also buy gunpowder ourselves and make bullets. By then, the cost of bullets will be greatly reduced, allowing the general to have time to return to the city."
