Chapter 242 The group army’s breakout in Zhuguang City.
Tang Zheng once again purchased five trains and five transport planes.
The person in charge of the airport and train station finally said: "General, the throughput of our train station and airport has reached its limit and cannot continue to increase."
Hearing this, Tang Zheng could only stop.
Now he already has thirty trains and twenty large transport planes, and the airport and train station in Zhuguang City really can no longer carry the load.
Tang Zheng sighed: "I analyze that the fall of Hezhou may be tonight, but this is the limit of what I can do. The trains and planes will increase by five each. If you can bring out more people, please try to bring out as many people as possible.
.”
The person next to him calculated: "There are still 1.2 million people in Hezhou. Our current transportation capacity will definitely not be able to transport all the goods in one day. Maybe some people will stay in Hezhou."
"There is nothing we can do about it. By the way, we have also seized a lot of helicopters and sent them out to rescue more people. That would also be good."
The Light Chasing Army also captured about twenty helicopters during this period of campaign, and all of them were dispatched.
However, this kind of aircraft is not mainly used for transportation. The number of people that can be rescued is limited, so we can only do our best.
Just after finishing here, Guo Yun came to see Tang Zheng.
He took out another drawing and handed it to Tang Zheng.
This is the ninth map after upgrading the leader.
[Shipyard (Small): Price: 300,000 gold.]
Tang Zheng was stunned for a moment when he saw this drawing.
"Why is this shipyard small?"
Guo Yun helplessly spread his hands: "General, because we are in an inland area, we can only use small shipyards, but you can rest assured that even small shipyards are enough for us at present."
Tang Zheng nodded, that was indeed the case.
He selected this shipyard, purchased it, and then went to the Fengming River to place it.
Fengming River is not a big river, but Tang Zheng's shipyard is also small, and he did not choose to place it in the upper reaches, but came to the second ring road.
The second ring road was similar to the first ring road of Zhuguang City, and the area by the river was not open for the time being. Tang Zheng reluctantly placed this small shipyard in the lower reaches of Fengming River, near the water gate of the second ring road.
After placing them, a not very big shipyard appeared.
There is a small dock with a ship workshop and two cranes.
There are also a hundred workers in the shipyard. Tang Zheng made a brief acquaintance with them and opened the system page.
With the shipyard, there are several more vehicles on the system page.
[Assault Boat: Price is 1,500 gold, comes with 2 crew members, can carry up to 10 people, and has no weapons. 】
[Inland river transport ship: Price is 10,000 gold, comes with a crew of 10, can normally carry 200 people, and can carry a maximum of 300 people. It is equipped with a 25mm caliber chain-type machine gun, a 12.7mm anti-aircraft machine gun, and a helicopter launcher.
Lower the platform.]
[Inland river icebreaker: Price is 100,000 gold, comes with a crew of 20, and can carry a maximum of 600 people.]
After seeing these ships, Tang Zheng had some thoughts in his mind.
Of course, Chasing Light City needs some ships. After all, there is a river, and some shipping can be carried out in the future.
However, he can also choose another place to build a second shipyard.
This is the sixth day of the siege of Hezhou, and the light-chasing army's transportation capacity has reached its limit.
Trains increase their speed to the limit, and so do airplanes.
Since early morning, the transportation speed has been a little higher than before.
Every time a train enters the station, it takes away 10,000 people.
Every time a plane arrives, it also takes away two thousand people.
Over in Hezhou, everything was also proceeding according to Liu Yibang's command.
After a large number of survivors reinforced the city wall for the last time, they began to evacuate the front line.
By one o'clock in the afternoon, there were no survivors in the front-line area, and it was all the soldiers of the Fifth Army who continued to fight.
But despite this, there are still many survivors stranded in Hezhou.
At two o'clock in the afternoon, there were still 700,000 survivors in Hezhou.
Three o'clock in the afternoon, six hundred and fifty thousand.
Four o'clock in the afternoon, six hundred thousand.
At five o'clock, five hundred and fifty thousand.
At six o'clock, 500,000 people were still stranded in Hezhou.
It was already dark again at this moment, and half a million people were crowded in the train station and the airport.
These people don't know the specific situation on the front line now, so they can remain stable for the time being.
But Liu Yibang knew that most of these people would probably stay here.
Because the situation on the front line is already very dangerous.
After a day's fighting, the 130,000 soldiers had become 120,000, and another 10,000 people remained on the front line forever.
But this was just an appetizer. As night fell, the rate of casualties increased significantly.
Moreover, after an afternoon of damage, the city wall was already crumbling.
All the artillery was silenced at this moment, and the Fifth Army no longer had long-range fire support.
I can't stand it tonight no matter what. Maybe in two hours, maybe in three hours, there will definitely be problems.
By then the casualty rate will increase sharply, and the army group will completely collapse.
So Liu Yibang had to make a decision.
The Fifth Army was his foundation, and he would definitely take it away.
Liu Yibang already had some ideas in mind. He temporarily handed over the command of the city wall and drove away.
He first returned to the city hall, where he lived.
There are some more precious things here that he collected during his time in power, and they must be taken away this time.
I returned to my residence, packed up two large boxes, and then moved them back to the car.
Five hundred thousand Singapore dollars was also put into the box, which is Liu Yibang's entire net worth.
After loading his things, Liu Yibang drove to the TV station again.
Here at the TV station, Li Wuyou is also preparing to evacuate.
After all, all the survivors in the city have been evacuated, and there is no point in her staying here. After Liu Yibang arrived, he sent Li Wuyou directly to the airport.
When the next plane arrives, Li Wuyou will leave with the plane and head to Light Chaser City.
Everything was almost arranged, and Liu Yibang returned to the front line battlefield again.
At this time, the time has come to 7:30 in the evening.
The battle outside the city has entered a fierce stage. Two city walls have been breached by zombies, and the battle has begun to turn into a brutal wall fight.
The Fifth Army showed signs of being unable to hold on any longer, and the number of casualties began to increase dramatically. The number of casualties dropped from 120,000 to less than 110,000.
Fortunately, the gap in the city wall has not widened yet. If it did, zombies would swarm in and it would be all over.
After Liu Yibang came back, he immediately ordered that all the flares be shot out.
All the spare flares were shot out at once, and the sky suddenly became clear, and all the approaching corpses were invisible.
"Thermobaric bombs! Shoot out all the thermobaric bombs and destroy these corpses for me!"
At the last moment, Liu Yibang issued the order without reservation, and the Fifth Army also demonstrated their heritage and combat effectiveness as a regular army.
After firing multiple thermobaric bombs in succession, a large open space was immediately cleared outside the city.
Mushroom clouds kept blooming in the dark night, and zombies were wiped out in large numbers.
The zombies were also frightened by the fifth group army's final counterattack. Their formations were out of sync for a while, and the siege effort became a little weak.
At this time, some wounded people took the initiative to choose to stay.
Their injuries were relatively serious, and they were left disabled and unable to move. Now they chose to sacrifice their lives for justice.
There are also some who have just been infected with the zombie virus. Although they can survive for a while, they cannot survive for too long and are destined to become zombies, so they actively choose to stay.
Excluding the wounded, the total number of Liu Yibang's troops dropped to 100,000.
With these people, Liu Yibang gave a military salute to those left behind, then waved his hand and everyone boarded the car.
The Fifth Army's vehicles, except for the armored units, are basically intact.
More than two thousand trucks were parked nearby, and ministries boarded immediately.
Among the armored forces that fought fiercely on the first night, there were still dozens of tanks left, and these tanks became their pioneers.
The convoy started racing along the streets, starting on several streets at the same time.
Liu Yibang's goal is also simple, that is, the two highway bridges over Jinhe and Xiangshui.
They can no longer go to the train station and the airport to compete with the remaining people for precious transfer opportunities, so Liu Yibang's plan is to lead his team to break through the highway bridge and break out of Hezhou!
He also knew the situation on the other side of the highway bridge, which had long been blocked by zombies.
However, during the six days of continuous fierce fighting, even the tens of millions of corpses were killed under the fierce sniper fire of the Fifth Army, so the subsequent zombies had to be transferred to participate in the siege operations.
Now at the highway bridge, the encirclement is no longer that big, and he still has a chance to break through.
He had already fired all the thermobaric bombs, and the wounded were left behind as part of a desperate team.
He has tried his best to help the survivors buy time. As for how many survivors will be unable to leave in the future, he no longer cares so much.
Liu Yibang did not tell anyone about the secret evacuation of the Fifth Army, including Li Wuyou and Tang Zheng.
Because he knew that Li Wuyou would not agree, there was no point in telling Tang Zheng, as he would probably make fun of him.
He had no choice but to make this decision.
He knew that there were still more than 400,000 people in Hezhou who had not had time to evacuate, but he could only say sorry.
"I'm sorry, my fellow villagers, after all, I am still a military commander."
The convoy rushed out of the river mouth area, with the highway bridge in front of it in the distance.
In the sky, a large flock of birds chirped.
Those are the mutated birds attacking the city. Their arrival in large numbers now proves that the city wall has begun to fall.
Liu Yibang looked at the time and saw that just half an hour had passed.
"It's over! Those survivors are over."
Just when Liu Yibang was sighing, another piece of bad news came.
On the other side of the river bridge, the number of besieging zombies not only did not decrease, but actually increased.
At this moment Liu Yibang understood.
Originally, a group of zombies blocked both the railway bridge and the highway bridge. Now that the railway bridge cannot be blocked, all the zombies there have evacuated and all come to block the highway bridge.
Even these cunning zombies are hiding nearby, deliberately making the number of road bridges blocked appear to be reduced. This is probably a trap deliberately set by the Zombie King!
But Liu Yibang had already arrived at the bridge at this moment. He was riding a tiger and had no choice but to get off.
"Damn it! Fight! Speed up, rush for me, we must rush out of Hezhou! We must die outside!"
