Chapter 1492: Chapter 859
This shot killed no less than one hundred Zombies.
It mainly hit the Zombies inside the cement pipe. These Zombies were hiding inside the cement pipe with high density, making the power of this shot extremely great.
The efficiency of killing Zombies is astounding!
Third Uncle adjusted the angle of the cannon once more, then shouted to Old Qin: "Fire!"
Boom!
The Bomb exploded in the abandoned farmland, instantly shredding the Zombies that were walking over.
In the farmland, there was almost no cover, and Zombies within a radius of fifty meters from the Bomb’s explosion point suffered attacks.
However, at this moment, the Zombies walking at the front also reached the spot not far from the military base on the small hill.
Ant moved extremely quickly; bullets burst forth from the muzzle of his gun one by one.
With more advanced firearms, Ant seemed to handle them more easily.
Night Vision Goggles, scopes...
The configuration of this gun was maxed out.
The power was also very impressive; a single bullet could fly out and blast a hole the size of a teacup in the Zombie’s head.
This hole penetrated through the Zombie’s head.
Bang bang bang!
Boom boom boom!
In the sound of these Bombs and gunfire, a unique rhythm formed.
The heavy artillery unloaded Bombs at a rate of eight rounds per minute toward the open space in front of the small hill.
After all, each time required loading and calibrating, and the Bombs for such heavy artillery were quite heavy, which made their power quite strong.
Five minutes later.
The entire abandoned farmland seemed to have been plowed by a tractor, full of pits and craters.
With dozens of five-meter radius large pits scattered throughout.
The soil in the farmland was already loose, and the depth of the explosions reached more than two meters deep.
And on both sides of the small hill not far from the military base, lay the corpses of dozens of Zombies.
With the sound of the last gunshot, the remaining few Zombies which only had half a body left posed no more threat.
The battle to defend the military base at night was declared a success.
In the end, they didn’t let any Zombies that had been exposed to nuclear radiation approach the barbed wire.
Achieving this goal left everyone feeling excited amid the thrill.
As the cannon fire ceased, the entire forest returned to silence, as if nothing had happened.
Only the huge craters on the ground and the glowing debris in the wide farmland indicated what had just occurred.
From the start of the battle to its end, it only lasted ten minutes.
But it gave Li Yu the feeling that several days had passed.
Huff huff—
Yang Tianlong sat on the ground, the Bombs from the heavy artillery were really heavy.
Tens of kilograms, he had basically moved something weighing tens of kilograms forty times in these five minutes.
It made him extremely tired!
On the other side, Ant’s shooting also ended.
Because all the Zombies he could see had basically been taken care of.
Li Yu controlled the drone, lowering it to only a few meters above the farmland ground and surveyed around.
The place where the bombing occurred was a shattered sight.
In the whole farmland, there were only a few Zombies left with half bodies, either trapped in pits unable to climb out or with only a head left, helplessly roaring.
After not finding any more Zombies, Third Uncle looked at Li Yu and said, "Xiao Yu, it’s about time for you and Tianlong to rest."
Li Yu shook his head and said, "We just made such a loud noise. Let’s wait a bit longer to see if any Zombies are attracted over. I wouldn’t sleep soundly going back now."
Third Uncle heard this and felt Li Yu’s words made some sense, so he no longer tried to persuade him.
After about half an hour, it turns out Li Yu was right, but it wasn’t as exaggerated as he thought.
One after another, more than ten Zombies, not affected by nuclear radiation, arrived but were all dealt with.
After taking care of these Zombies, Li Yu saw that he wasn’t needed anymore and said to Third Uncle: "Third Uncle, we’re resting now. If anything happens, call us anytime."
Third Uncle nodded.
Both Ant and Jackals retreated to rest.
After all, during the day, everyone took turns cutting the gate, expending a lot of energy. If they didn’t rest at night, although they could hold up the next day, it would affect their condition.
In the Doomsday, one must keep their state in peak condition.
Spiritual power scattered, even a small mistake could lead to a big disaster.
Even costing life.
A silent night.
Third Uncle lit a cigarette, standing guard with Old Qin at night.
In the latter half of the night, Zombies didn’t come over.
Instead, they found several regular Zombies pounced on the farmland, nibbling on the corpses of those blasted Zombies affected by nuclear radiation.
....
A night passed.
The next day.
Li Yu opened his sleepy eyes and felt that the nearby artillery still seemed unreal.
So much artillery seemed dreamlike.
After going to Chen City last time without success, this time starkly contrasts.
Li Yu got up and went outside.
He saw Third Uncle sitting on the block of iron they cut outside the cave.
"Awake."
"Um."
"Just received news from the base, Luo and Dapao are on their way now, we should prepare, tidy up, estimating they’ll reach here by this evening," Third Uncle said to Li Yu while eating fruit.
Li Yu felt delighted upon hearing this.
He didn’t want to stay here much longer.
So many Zombies affected by nuclear radiation right in front, made him uncomfortable.
Li Yu went to the helicopter, took out his water bottle, drank a few sips, then poured some onto his palm and rubbed his face.
Early morning, the weather was somewhat muggy.
Third Uncle seemed to be daydreaming sitting on the iron block and saw Li Yu eating dry food sitting beside him.
After hesitating for a moment, he asked: "This military base is very well built, very solid. If a natural disaster occurs, or even a Zombie Tide, it might come in handy. What’s your opinion?"
Li Yu looked at the helicopter in a daze, thought for a minute.
He said to Third Uncle: "This place is indeed nice, but there’s no resources here."
"It’s different from Oil City, which can provide oil. Establishing a branch is meaningful.
But this place is three hundred kilometers away from the Big Camphor Tree Base. If we want to take this place down, these barbed wires definitely won’t work; we must rebuild the walls.
Otherwise, just a cave, if people or zombies trap us inside, that’s not good.
Also, if we want to make use of this place, we need enough helicopters and rapid response teams.
Our base only has this one helicopter, needs to look after five Satellite Cities, and also go to Oil City, it’s really not enough.
Simply put, this place is good, but currently has little significance for us.
If just to expand influence, it will probably disperse our already limited troops, and dragging the frontline too long.
.....
Li Yu clearly explained his thoughts to Third Uncle bit by bit.
Third Uncle listened seriously and after hearing said: "So, we temporarily give up on here?"
Li Yu pointed to the distant farmland and sighed: "It’s not really that. If we have more people later, and more helicopters, maybe it could serve as a small post.
But this place can’t be like Oil City, at most it can only serve like a Transfer Station.
Third Uncle, those nuclear radiation Zombies behind the hill, fallen farmland, those farms are no longer useful.
This forest area nearby doesn’t have a flat area, it’s impossible to plant crops.
That is to say, this place can’t produce stable food, very useless.
....
Third Uncle stood up, dusted the dirt off his pants.
Walked towards the helicopter, halfway he said to Li Yu: "Alright, anyway I will heed your advice."
Li Yu watched the back of Third Uncle leaving, remained silent for a while.
.....
Time passed minute by minute.
Elsewhere.
Luo and Dapao with their mighty convoy were now at the fifth Satellite City.
Which is the Satellite City where Gan City is located.
At this moment, Guo Peng saw the mighty convoy and quickly stood at the roadside, watching Luo and his group.
.....
