After hearing Xie Jinshan's explanation, Lian Na and the others suddenly realized.
It was indeed their negligence. After the apocalypse began, the nights were almost starless and moonless. No matter which survivors were on the road, very few people were active at night.
Zombies are just the opposite. They become more active at night, and darkness has no effect on them.
They thought the fighting would end at night, but it was not the case. The fierce fighting began at night.
The thought of millions of zombies surging in the dark night and people becoming food for the zombies makes everyone shudder.
"I hope, I hope the Light Chasing Army can hold on for a while, at least they won't be wiped out tonight."
"Well, I don't think it will end so soon. After all, Chasing Light City has two walls. If Tang Zheng can't defeat it, he can still retreat to the inner city."
"Tang Zheng is well prepared and will not be unable to fight back. I think he should be able to hold on for two to three days."
Everyone who just thought that the Zhuguang Army was doing a good job immediately changed their tune.ωωw..net
They hope that the Light Chasing Army will be defeated, but they don't want them to be defeated so quickly and completely. Then no one will be able to resist this group of zombies, and the entire Northern Territory will face the threat of zombies.
In other survivor bases, many people were also restless.
Many people understand the principle of dying lips and cold teeth.
Any disputes or unhappiness we usually have are all internal affairs of human beings.
But in the face of zombies, many people think that everyone should still unite together.
Now, Chasing Light City is on the front line of mankind's fight against zombies. This is an important vane.
Most of the survivors in other bases did not want Tang Zheng to be defeated, and some even wanted to support him.
But the alliance's actions left everyone feeling uncertain.
The Alliance doesn't care. Are we going to fill the gaps between the zombies' teeth with just a few of our own?
Yong Linling at the manor base listened to the fierce fighting situation on the radio and wanted to provide support several times, but in the end he still did not issue this order.
"Alas! I have met Tang Zheng before. He is a nice-looking person. What a pity."
"If he wins this time, I will form an alliance with him and let Xie Jinshan's alliance go to hell."
"If he loses, this land in the Northern Territory will no longer be able to stay."
Other bases and some small bases had the idea of providing support, but in the end they had no choice but to give up after considering their own strength.
However, everyone has a preliminary recognition of Tang Zheng.
Being able to bravely stand on the front line against zombies, this person is much more reliable than Xie Jinshan's alliance.
Tang Zheng didn't know that the outside world's opinion of him was getting better and better, and the battle outside the city made him unable to distract himself.
Of the 50,000 zombies, only about 10,000 have been wiped out.
In another twenty minutes or so, this wave of zombies will probably be wiped out.
But the current situation is not optimistic. Although the Light Chasing Army has eliminated hundreds of thousands of zombies, its own consumption is also not small.
The training ammunition replenished at noon has been shot out, and many boxes of ammunition on the city wall have been opened.
After a fierce battle, the soldiers themselves began to feel a little tired.
The loss of hundreds of thousands to the zombies was nothing. Tang Zheng even noticed that the zombies that walked through the mines and the zombies that attacked the city walls were almost all ordinary zombies.
Obviously, the zombie leader has a battle plan, and the current calm means the difficulties ahead.
Sure enough, when the time approached seven o'clock, the zombies here had not been eliminated yet, and new zombies had already joined the battlefield.
In the last glimmer of daylight, a large number of zombies swept in again.
The number of zombies this time seems to be greater than that of the previous wave.
Through the dim light, Tang Zheng saw that among the corpses, a large number of mutated zombies had joined the battle.
"One hundred thousand! In this attack wave, the number of zombies is almost one hundred thousand."
"Besides, the sun has set and it's already dark. In less than half an hour, it will be night."
"And the time when the zombies arrived here was also very good. Not only did it connect back and forth, it didn't give us a chance to breathe at all. It also happened to be stuck when night fell. It seems that the zombie leader had already planned it.
The night attacks."
"If I hadn't been fully armed and well-funded, I would have been tricked by you this time."
Tang Zheng ordered the troops not to be stingy with bullets, increase their firepower output, and eliminate the 10,000 zombies near the city wall as soon as possible to prepare for the next battle.
At the same time, he opened his own system.
As time goes by, the battle in Chasing Light City is not over yet.
When they heard Xiao Dili say on the radio that almost 100,000 zombies had entered the battlefield, many people suddenly realized that it was already dark!
It turns out that the idea of ending the battle after dark was wishful thinking on their part, as zombies do not have the habit of resting at night.
It's dark now, how should we fight?
Even the people in the Light-Chasing City who were cheering because of the good performance of the Light-Chasing Army now felt unsure.
On the radio, Xiao Dili's voice couldn't help but tremble a little.
"The fighting is still going on. I can now see that the searchlights are on on the watchtowers inside the city wall."
"The soldiers are using the lights to kill the approaching zombies."
"Five minutes ago, I could still see a large number of zombies approaching in the distance, but now I look far away and can no longer see clearly where the zombies are."
"I have to say that the autumn nights come too early. It's completely dark before eight o'clock."
As she broadcast, people's hearts were in their throats.
Everyone is very worried, worried that they will hear people's screams in the next moment, hear the news of the city being destroyed, or that they will not hear anything at all.
Different from people's various reactions, Chen Feilong looked at Chasing Light City and smiled ferociously among the dark corpses.
"That Tang Zheng is probably still congratulating himself on why I didn't attack with all my strength."
"He thinks I'm a fool. If I send too many zombies at once to such a big place in front of Light Chaser City, it will suit his needs. The dense formation will allow him to fire at will."
"You gave me a greeting gift, and I have to give you a gift in return. Doesn't your sentry tower have a searchlight? Then let's have a night battle."
Chen Feilong is very proud. Although he has lost hundreds of thousands of ordinary zombies so far, it is nothing. If he goes to any city, he can summon them back with just a few throats.
Moreover, those zombies before were all cannon fodder he sent out, and his group of mutated zombies had not yet gone into battle.
This wave of 100,000 zombies is the beginning of the real attack.
In the darkness, he did not believe that the Light Chasing Army still had the same fighting power as before. The corpses would soon rush to the foot of the city wall and then pile up on the city wall. If everything went well, the city would be broken tonight.
As night fell, Chen Feilong no longer had as many scruples as before and ordered the new corpse group to advance quickly.
One hundred thousand zombies were already too many. After Chen Feilong's order, the zombies no longer kept distance from each other and began to move quickly in groups in the darkness.
Soon, they entered within three kilometers of the city.
Tang Zheng turned on the radar screen and watched the zombie swarm advance.
Seeing this, he breathed a sigh of relief.
Everything is still within plan.
Ever since the zombies arrived, Tang Zheng had been deducing the battle plan in his mind. He put himself in the position of the Corpse King and imagined how he would fight if he was the Corpse King.
Among them, night combat is definitely the highlight.
So the zombies are stalling for time, Tang Zheng is stalling for time, and everyone is waiting for the night to come.
The zombies felt that they had a chance to win, and Tang Zheng also had gifts for them.
Seeing the group of corpses arriving, Tang Zheng ordered to open fire.
With the guidance of radar, there is no need for lighting at all. The artillerymen can just fire according to the coordinates provided by the radar squad.
Artillery company commander Wang Jinglong is sitting in the radar station at the moment, sitting next to radar squad leader Li Shaoqing.
He looked at the radar screen, held a walkie-talkie, and gave direct firing orders to the soldiers on the front line.
"Left front, nine o'clock direction, 2.2 kilometers away, fire!"
"Directly ahead, 12 o'clock direction, 2.3 kilometers away, fire coverage!"
Orders were issued one after another, and the artillery in Zhuguang City opened fire.
The target areas are all areas densely populated by zombies.
Groups of fire began to explode in the dark night.
The artillery soldiers were busy loading the shells, firing them, unpacking and transporting the shells.
The deafening sound of cannons dealt a fatal blow to the zombies.
Especially those rocket launchers. Every time they were fired, nineteen rockets roared out, with burning tails in the darkness, flying straight out of the city in an arc-shaped parabola shape.
A rocket launcher shell normally costs 2.5 gold. If fired once, it costs 47.5 gold.
A salvo of ten rocket launchers is worth 475 gold.
If it weren't for the arsenal, Tang Zheng would have gone bankrupt very soon.
But with the arsenal, this capital cost has been reduced to about 100 gold, which Tang Zheng can now fully afford.
Behind them, engineering troops continued to carry new artillery shells from the arsenal.
Tang Zheng's order: As long as the artillery can still fire, don't stop!
The dense artillery plowed the ground as if it was free of charge, flying out of Zhuguang City.
Seeing the constant stream of shells falling from the sky, seeing his own corpses being bombarded with countless casualties, Chen Feilong almost bit his fangs to pieces.
"Damn it, is he going to die?"
"I can't believe how many cannonballs you can have!"
"And the area you bombed is only two kilometers. As long as I advance to within one kilometer of the city wall, your artillery shells will be useless."
"Speed up! Get closer to the city wall!"
Regardless of how many corpses were killed, Chen Feilong asked the zombies to speed up as much as possible and pass through the artillery attack zone no matter what.
He believed that the people of the Light Chasing Army could not see through the night. As long as they reached that area, it would be his world.
The zombies received the order and staggered as hard as they could, trying to get closer to the Light-Chasing City.
After all, the number of artillery was limited, and the large army of zombies finally entered within one kilometer of the city wall of Chasing Light City.
At this distance, the artillery's parabola is not enough to attack them.
Without the suppression of artillery, the zombies moved faster.
The group of corpses entered the shooting range of 500 meters from the city wall.
Although he suffered heavy losses, Chen Feilong believed that as long as he could pass these 500 meters, no matter how big the sacrifice, it would be worth it.
But the next scene left him stunned.
I saw many bright white light bullets swaying into the sky in Chasing Light City, flying directly to a height of nearly a hundred meters!
Then the light bomb descended at an extremely slow speed and emitted a strong white light, illuminating the ground hundreds of meters below like daylight.
"This, this, this is a flare! Tang Zheng! You old bastard! I'm going to eat you!"
