doomsday lamb

The fifth attack of the zombie swarm has lasted for three hours.

From the setting sun to the darkening sky, the long battle brought unbearable fatigue to everyone. Among the 7,000 people guarding the edge of the defense line, Sanxi was one of them.

Before the disaster, he was just an ordinary office worker. His irregular work schedule and occasional overtime work and late nights had long emptied his body. In his normal life before the disaster, he had neglected to exercise. It was because of this doomsday crisis that Sanxi had to

Run, use all your strength, unleash a lifetime of potential, and run wildly with yourself and your family.

He was lucky. Although he encountered groups of corpses from time to time on the way out of the city, the three of them were always not the ones who died. He was lucky. After escaping from the city, he followed the refugee group to Fengwei Mountain and became a member of the Langya City Defense Force.

There are equipment and companions here. Although the training time is less than a month, Sanxi thinks that he is already a qualified warrior.

But until now, his shoulder was sore from being hit by the gun butt, and his fingers lost feeling. The continuous noisy sound made his whole body numb, and his head was like a stone poured with lead water. Facing the boundless blackness

Facing the endless wave of monsters, Sanxi felt the same panic as the day she escaped from Shashi.

At a certain moment, Sanxi suddenly had a doubt in his heart. In this battle with no end in sight, he was not sure that he could survive to the end, nor was he sure that they could win this war, or even dare to

Determine whether the black corpse will directly break through the city wall and kill everyone in the next moment.

Numbly firing, reloading, shooting, reloading, as if he were an hourly worker on an assembly line.

At a certain moment, Sanxi even felt that he was dead, and everything around him was just an illusion of pain that lingered after death. In the illusion, he saw a city wall that was as straight as a right angle, and black corpses were climbing up with their sharp claws.

climb,opposite defense line

The people aimed at the backs of their heads and fired. The hit black corpses rolled down the slope composed of black corpses one after another, and the top of the slope was cut off a whole layer. At the same time, more black corpses were climbing up, pushing the

The "tentacles" on the top of the slope extend upward again.

This is like a tug of war, and the Corpse King is using the most disdainful tactics of fueling the fight.

The most disdainful, but also the most fearful.

Not only Sanxi, not just the top management, everyone in the base knows one thing very well - the ammunition reserve in the warehouse is limited. In theory, without unlimited bullets, you cannot defeat the infinite swarm of corpses. Of course, the swarm of corpses cannot

It will be infinite. Although it seems that there are still black corpses rushing out of the jungle in a steady stream, in theory, the corpse group will always be exhausted. The final count of black corpses may be 880,000 or 103.

Ten thousand, but it is still a real number, rather than tending to infinite nothingness.

But people will never forget that as long as there are more black corpses than ammunition, and as long as the black corpses are not extinct before the ammunition is exhausted, the end of mankind will usher in.

In fact, their ability to hold on to this day is also due to the powerful equipment supported by the Qin family. In addition to the results brought by those heavy artillery and tanks, a handful of machine guns and anti-aircraft guns were also used to attack the enemy at this time.

enemy.

The machine guns installed on the defense towers dealt a heavy blow to the corpses before they approached the city wall. The caliber of the machine gun bullets exceeded 20 mm, which was enough to break any black corpse below the third level into pieces. When the black corpses swarmed,

When attacking the bastion and edge defense line, the machine guns fired out frequent bullet streams. Any black corpses that rushed up the "hill" were shattered by bullets and became part of the remains of the mountain of corpses beneath them.

Different from when they were on the first line of defense, at this time Sanxi and the others had Type 03 and Type 05 rifles produced at the beginning of this century. Part of the production capacity of these two batches of firearms is still active in military and police sequences in various places. Correspondingly

They are more damaging than their predecessors' Type 63, Type 67, Type 03, and Type 05 rifles.

, has a longer range and higher accuracy. Sanxi alone fired thousands of rounds of bullets in three days, but until now, he has not encountered any problems such as jamming or explosion. With the new gun in hand, the defense team

The firepower doubled, and the zombie hordes could no longer attack the city wall as easily as they could break through the first line of defense.

"What a great gun."

Looking at the weapon in his hand, Sanxi couldn't help but think, if there had been such a gun in his hand that day and such firepower on the defense line, wouldn't the squad leader, Xiao Liang and Xuanzi have died?

He doesn't understand military affairs, let alone tactics, and he doesn't know which one of the factors that caused the death of many comrades is the biggest driving force behind the scenes.

On the opposite city wall, there were a few unscrupulous black corpses who tried to climb up, but were shot down by Sanxi's bullets. The corpses of the black corpses fell off the city wall, rolled from the mountain of corpses to the foot of the mountain, and then fell into the trench with a clatter.

Go in.

(Distribute cold weapons.)

Regarding the trench that was once filled with wooden thorns, Sanxi just glanced at it and stopped paying attention. He knew that the black corpses would gradually fill this trench, just like the previous ones.

I heard from other people that in order to prevent a large group of corpses, the city lord and deputy city lord raised the walls of the fortress a month ago, but retained the trenches, parapets and slopes outside the city. The previous second line of defense was at

In the trench under the city wall, the first line of defense was dug out on an unsheltered slope.

Although Sanxi didn't understand military affairs, he could see that the zigzag wall had one obvious advantage after defending the city for three days. That is, when the enemy climbed any wall, they would be violently attacked by the defenders on the other side.

Generally speaking, the taller and straighter the city wall is, the larger the blind spot at the base of the wall is. However, the bastion and edge defense line of the star-shaped fortress can serve as angles to each other, covering each other. The soldiers focus their fire to attack the opposite side at the same time.

With a city wall, there is no longer a problem of dead ends. A longer city wall also extends the battle line and further disperses the size of the corpse group.

Therefore, some of the black corpses attacking the fortress at a certain moment have to accept the firepower of all the defending officers and soldiers at the same time. When dealing with a large-scale siege, only the star-shaped fortress can maximize the firepower of the entire line. They can

Living to this day, I must be grateful to the city lord and deputy city lord for their foresight.

Before boarding this fortress, no one thought that they would leave their life and death to others, and they regarded protecting the safety of their companions as a task that must be completed. But the destruction of the city and the death of people are the sword of Damocles that hangs high.

.At this moment, everyone guarding the defense line understands the truth of the situation.

So people have a profound understanding that protecting comrades is to protect oneself, and guarding the opposite line of defense is to guard one's own line of defense.

Sanxi had to admit that if this were not the end of the world, if this was not a modern society where thermal weapons have been domineering for many years, the star-shaped fortress would be the nemesis of all siege tactics. But unfortunately, the opponent of the fortress this time has no fear, is tireless, and will not back down.

Black Corpse is the corpse king who doesn’t care about sacrifice or death.

When hundreds of thousands of black corpses swarmed up the city wall, the trenches that had been tried and tested in the cold weapon era became a joke. Hundreds of thousands of black corpses were enough to fill any trench, enough to suppress any sea of ​​​​fire, even if the city wall was not strong enough

High, star fortress would be a joke.

Sanxi felt that she should be lucky. Lucky that the city wall was high enough, lucky that the firepower here was strong enough, lucky that although the world had become a mess, she and her family were still alive.

At least I'm alive at this moment.

"Click." "Thump, thump, thump, thump—"

As night fell, huge searchlights were lit on the city wall, illuminating the 100-meter area closest to the outer city wall as bright as day. So far, the attack of the corpses has been balanced by the people's counterattack, except for the mountain of corpses under the city wall.

It has become thicker and bigger, but there is no change compared to what it was during the day.

In such a fierce battle, it is a rare thing for people to have the opportunity to take turns to rest. Several people rubbed their sore shoulders and sat down with their backs against the wall, naturally talking about these alternatives to cigarettes.

gossip.

"Hey, tell me, if the zombies can't attack for a long time, will they retreat?"

"I'd rather they give up, but do you think that's possible? Will wild dogs let go easily before they've eaten the meat?"

"Perhaps you have forgotten that the first few attacks failed in the later stages."

"This... I hope your guess is right."

…

Just as people were whispering despite their fatigue and sleepiness, Lin Wenjin, who was in Fortress No. 1, suddenly stood up straight.

He looked far into the distance and saw a running black corpse suddenly appearing on the edge of the "day" at the end of his vision. Running from the darkness into the light, the black corpse ran extremely fast, almost as fast as Usain Bolt in the end of the world.

Therefore, they are particularly conspicuous among the corpses. First one, then ten, a group, and finally an innumerable large group. Countless black corpses suddenly accelerated like a riot, and then rushed through the night towards the wall of the Star Castle.

Come.

"No, sound the alarm quickly!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Duan Hei slapped the alarm button installed on the wall. In an instant, the air defense alarm sounded, and the sharp high-decibel tone reverberated along the entire defense line. As soon as people came to their senses, they saw that these black corpses were almost there.

We've reached the city wall!

"Defend, defend quickly!"

"Fire at me, aim at them and hit them hard!"

“Da da da—” “Hoo uh!”

"No, they moved too fast!"

"Coming up! They're coming up!"

"Shoot quickly! Drive them off the city wall!"

Soon, a new batch of faster black corpses reached the top of the corpse mountain. They were like beasts on stimulants, desperately trying to climb the city wall. In the process of climbing upwards, they

Stepping on the shoulders and heads of his companions, he used his hands and feet to grab everything around him. At a certain moment, a continuous upward "chain of corpses" was actually formed. Although many black corpses lost their feet and rolled down the mountain of corpses.

, but more black corpses actually used this to climb the city wall.

As soon as they first came into contact, people found that these black corpses were very different from those who came to die before. Their evolutionary levels were higher, and they seemed to be generally from the peak of the first level to the early stage of the second level, and there were even some black corpses in the middle and late stages of the second level.

Corpses are mixed in among them. Moreover, they are all evolved types that prefer speed. As long as the soldiers do not hit their vital points at the first time, these black corpses will knock people down and bite their throats.

The natural moat that they have always relied on seems to have disappeared. For the people guarding the city wall, this is simply a nightmare.

"Grenade!" "Quick, quick! Throw them all down!"

“Bang!” “Hoo uh——”

"Go to hell, monster!" "Blow up all of you black corpses!"

"Bang bang bang——"

People threw down all the grenades at hand, and fist-sized iron lumps fell like raindrops into the sea of ​​​​blood under the city wall. Soon there was an explosion, and there was a wave of blood. In the blood wave, there were flying pieces of flesh, broken pieces, etc.

It has three arms and less than half a head.

After an explosion, the corpse mountain did not collapse, but its height was greatly reduced, almost half. The corpse mountain composed of one hundred thousand black corpses was far thicker than people imagined. The explosive power of the offensive grenade fragments was average and could

This step has reached the limit. But also because the mountain of corpses has become half shorter, the chance of black corpses climbing up the city wall has dropped sharply.

Within a few minutes, the situation took a turn for the worse and then returned to control again, testing people's mental endurance like a roller coaster. Although the situation only slightly improved at this time, some people could not help but cheer.

"Great, the mountain of corpses has collapsed!"

On Bastion No. 3, his companion pointed at the opposite edge of the defense line and retorted: "Nonsense! Look clearly, there is still half of it."

"Get out of the way and let me come!"

At this time, a person squeezed in from behind. He was the squad leader of a certain rifle squad. He had a beard on his face, a strong back and a strong waist. He was seen carrying an individual rocket launcher on his shoulder and aiming it at the edge of the defense line.

At the waist of the city wall, he shouted and pulled the trigger.

"R-P-G!"

"brush--"

A powerful gray-white jet appeared at the tail of the rocket launcher, pushing the rocket away at an initial speed of 117 meters per second.

The launch tube and the rocket with its stabilizing fins spread out rotated and flew directly into the top of the mountain of corpses in just 0.5 seconds.

A violent explosion occurred instantly, with flames and metal fragments shooting in all directions, quickly blowing up the "wall of corpses".

"here you go!"

This individual weapon that can destroy tanks' armor is truly worthy of its reputation!

Seeing this scene, the others followed suit and found more than ten rocket launchers and went into battle. The corpse ladders one after another on the wall opposite the No. 3 Bastion were suddenly cleared.

"It works!" Wu Ke's eyes lit up when he saw this scene. He quickly informed other defense lines: "Use the rocket launcher quickly to kill these black corpses of bitches!"

As more RPG rocket launchers join the battle, the corpse walls and corpse ladders that have taken shape are rapidly collapsing.

In Langya City, the inner city wall is five meters high, and it was doubled when the outer city was built. The 15-meter-high zigzag city wall was all built by people with earth-type abilities. Its material is similar to rock, and it is not afraid of water or fire attacks.

.Because the wall is more than five meters thick, the structure remains stable even if it is hit by grenades.

Everyone knows that rockets are limited, so it is only a matter of time before the wall of corpses forms again. But also because of the powerful blow of rockets, the pressure in people's hearts can not help but be relieved.

At the same time, some unfamiliar faces were approaching them. These people were holding strange-looking silver-gray short guns with a thick and heavy gun body, and a gas tank-like cylindrical device connected under the barrel.

"Gauss Weapons!"

Someone soon recognized it. This was the first-generation magnetic energy weapon produced by the coalition government at the beginning of the century. It was also commonly known as Gauss weapon. At the same time, the device under the barrel was not a gas tank, but a special electromagnetic stamping pump.

.Although I have heard that the coalition government plans to equip the army with Gauss weapons on a large scale in the future, ordinary people have rarely seen the real thing.

Under the gaze of everyone, these new defenders silently came to the city wall, stuck the barrel of their gun out of the wall stacks and pointed it straight down, without saying anything, they pulled the trigger.

With a "boom", the powerful recoil shook the gunners so much that they almost jumped up. But these people were the best selected elite soldiers among the first batch of citizens of Langya City. After finishing the work, they just moved their shoulders, and they didn't seem to have any serious problems.

hinder.

The people on the defense line of the bastion on the opposite side didn't know why. They only saw a blue-white pulse flow suddenly appeared, penetrating downwards in a straight line and dozens of black corpses climbing the wall. The blue-white pulse swooped to the bottom, and then followed the corpses.

A small explosion occurred at the top of the mountain.

Killing a ladder of corpses with one shot is indeed much better than conventional firearms. People only see the gorgeous pulse flow, but Chen Hui knows that what really works is the metal bullet hidden in the pulse flow.

According to the information circulated before the disaster, the first-generation Gauss weapon was still equipped with conventional caseless bullets. Its most powerful feature was its kinetic energy killing. After the trigger was pulled, the electromagnetic stamping pump would cause electromagnetic induction in the gun body.

The prime mover provides a motive force, and then the bipolar magnetic field in the barrel is activated, instantly accelerating the metal slug, causing it to pass through the muzzle and shoot toward the target.

I heard that the energy gained by the bullet at this instant is very large. Under ideal conditions, the speed when passing through the muzzle is close to the speed of light. The greater the speed, the greater the kinetic energy, and the greater the destructive power. Naturally, it is not comparable to conventional thermal weapons. It should be said

, the lethality of this magnetic energy gun is not inferior to the ordinary smoothbore cannon before the disaster. However, the magnetic energy gun is a magic weapon that is kept at the bottom of the box. Langya City does not have many in the arsenal, so it can only

Use it at times like this to resolve urgent needs.

"Awesome! We are saved this time."

"Shoot, shoot quickly! Kill them all, leaving no one behind."

The combined power of rockets and magnetic energy guns once again brought hope to people. Sanxi's mood was very exciting, and people also thought that everything was turning for the better.

But at this moment, a sudden change occurred.

With a "swipe" sound, several sharp objects suddenly flew past Sanxi's cheek. The object made a sound of breaking through the air, followed by a short scream - "Ah!"

Sanxi shuddered, and then looked to the side, only to see the tip of an arrow-shaped hidden weapon penetrated deeply into the man's eye socket. The magnetic energy gun was thrown aside, the victim's body was twitching unconsciously, and the murder weapon was exposed outside the wound.

The tail end was still glowing with a dark white luster, and it was trembling uncontrollably.

"Brother? Brother!" Sanxi soon discovered that this man was already dead.

He put down the body, stood up and issued a warning with all his strength: "Beware of the black corpse with bone spurs!"

At the same time, roars and screams came from all the defense lines. In just a moment, the edge defense line became the hardest hit area by the special black zombie attack.

"ah!"

Someone was pierced through the shoulder blade and shouted: "G-type bone spur attack!"

Others looked at their companions who were corroded beyond recognition and shouted in panic: "Spitters! Damn, there are still spitters!"

From time to time, a few bone-spiked spear guns and a few balls of yellow-green corrosive slime appeared in the air. At first, they were thrown around without accuracy, and most of the time they just hit the city walls and wall stacks. But not long after, these guys also had the accuracy,

It's like passing by

Calibration and adjustment, most of the extremely lethal bone spurs were shot directly at the soldiers, and a lot of corrosive slime also fell on the soldiers. There was no way, the surviving people had to leave the combat positions and run away, praying that the next unlucky guy would not die tragically.

It's myself.

Amidst the hail of bullets, the surviving squad leader shouted loudly: "Defense, shield soldiers defend!"

At this time, people seemed to have just remembered, and swarmed to find the shield soldiers closest to them. Under the log shields raised by the shield soldiers, the soldiers returned to the city wall defense line and organized counterattacks in twos and threes.

The troops under the Langya City Defense Force are generally equipped with standard cold weapons produced by Wu's Weapons Factory. Some are broadswords and long swords, and some are wooden shields and spears. Among them, the shield soldiers have an exclusive hardwood shield, which is nearly round in shape and two meters in diameter.

, although it is ugly and bulky, it is the core equipment for every combat squad to defend against bone spurs, slime and other attacks.
