Chapter 880
Something is wrong
His feelings at this time were similar to those of Captain Yang. He never expected that the Alliance would use domesticated living corpses to participate in the rescue operation, nor did he expect that the tactics that had basically disappeared would be reused.
About one kilometer away due north, as the smoke and dust raised by the shells gradually dispersed, in addition to the large kangs and ruined walls all over the ground, a strange scene was revealed.
At least tens of thousands of zombies are marching southward, stretching nearly half a kilometer from east to west, and the darkness behind them must be hundreds of meters deep. The zombies that have just been baptized by large-caliber shells appear much thinner compared to them.
Basically, as long as you get close, you will be crushed without a trace.
The momentum is overwhelming! The zombie army advancing southward is like falling from the sky. The zombies that were originally besieged here were scattered, crushed, and coerced. Not only was it unable to stop the momentum of the southward movement, but it also made this zombie army become more and more serious.
grow!
If you want to ask where this zombie army came from and who controlled it, it is obvious that the infantry fighting vehicle following closely behind is the answer. Although it is impossible to see the faces of the people on the top of the vehicle clearly from this distance,
But Hong Tao can be 100% sure that there is at least one thing similar to Jiao Si among them.
In addition to being a little shocked at first, Hong Tao actually felt a lot more relaxed. With the help of living corpses similar to Jiao Si, coupled with the military's heavy artillery and assault troops, a gap was opened in a short period of time, and a small group of less than a hundred people could be reached.
It is obviously not a difficult operation for the team to break out.
But I only watched it for less than five minutes, and my heart that had just been put down was lifted again, and it was even higher than before. I dare not say how powerful the Jiao-like four living zombies are, what characteristics they have, and how to control the zombies on the battlefield.
He understands it better than anyone else and should be considered to have a deep understanding.
The current wave of zombies heading south looks the same as Jiao Si's original control method, which is area coverage. Any zombie that enters its brainwaves or sensing radius will be controlled. It's just that this time, Jiao Si's living zombies are smaller than before.
The control range of Jiao Si is much larger, and the number of controls is also greater.
This is not surprising. If Jiao Si belongs to the first batch of living corpses, then the current living corpses similar to Jiao Si should be the Nth batch. According to the evolutionary law of species, the more descendants are, the more powerful they will be than their ancestors, otherwise
This population will soon die out due to degradation.
However, compared with the zombie army controlled by the four living zombies, the zombie group originally besieged here was a bit too weak. They did not rush forward without hesitation to compete with the traitors, nor did they conduct a planned assembly. Instead, they were more like
A bunch of zombies that are not controlled at all, showing no resistance to the impact of the same kind.
Could it be that when the zombies saw that the siege failed, they gave up their zombies and fled first? Faced with this scene, Hong Tao naturally thought of another possibility. But when he turned his head and looked around to the south, west, and east
After that, he immediately denied his previous judgment.
In addition to the zombie groups in the north, the zombie groups in the west, south and east not only did not lose control, but were still moving very regularly! They were traveling from south to east, and the black zombies were walking quietly on the streets and ruins.
And in the wilderness, there is no lag.
To the east... Hong Tao didn't need to look at the map to know what the consequences would be if the zombie swarm moved eastward on a large scale. This was another roundabout outflanking. This was how the coachman and the soldiers of the 8th Regiment were fooled a few days ago. It's good now.
, the living zombies are planning to repeat their old tricks!
"What the hell, how do these guys manage to communicate and coordinate quickly while hiding in a building!" If this inference is true, Hong Tao will probably understand the reason why the rescue operation went so smoothly after it was launched.
It wasn't the Alliance Air Force, whose heavy artillery group's fire coverage was effective, nor the Alliance Army's new tactics, which were sharp, nor the appearance of the four burnt zombies that caught the enemy off guard.
All the previous performances were illusions, smoke bombs used by the zombies to confuse humans. They may have known from the beginning that more humans would cross the river to rescue trapped humans, and then used the 8th Group and themselves as bait.
, step by step, lead the human reinforcements deeper.
When the time is right, the living corpses will suddenly encircle them from the northwest and southeast to the northeast, encircling all the human survivors who have crossed the Huaihe River on the south bank.
So when is the time right? Hong Tao looked up at the sky, his face turned gray! The sky was even more hazy at this time. Even if he didn’t touch his back, as long as he wasn’t blind, he should be able to tell that there wasn’t much time until dark.
, and a heavy rain is likely to come.
Darkness is the perfect time for zombies. Although they don't like cloudy days and rain, they just don't like it, far from being afraid of it. On the other hand, human survivors are affected by long-distance evacuation in heavy rain.
It's obviously bigger than the zombies. Comparing the hatchbacks, the zombies still have a big advantage!
"Zhang Ke, I suggest you immediately order a breakout or have the rescue team retreat immediately. The zombies are behaving very abnormally. If my guess is correct, they are making a large-scale detour and encircling you from the east and northwest."
Thinking of this, Hong Tao didn't have time to carefully figure out the strategic intentions of the living corpse. He immediately picked up the phone and called Zhang Ke, telling Zhang Ke concisely the abnormalities and inferences he had discovered, plus his own suggestions.
"...Wait a minute, I will verify with the headquarters immediately!" Zhang Ke understood and responded immediately, without daring to be careless at all.
"Grandpa Hong, the headquarters has grasped the general movements of the zombie swarms, but we don't think they are encircling them. Even if there is such a possibility, don't worry, Team X...
Oh, it's that blue and white infantry fighting vehicle. They have the ability to control zombies. After lifting the siege, they can protect us from breaking through to the south bank of the Huaihe River to the north, where there are naval gunboats to respond.
By the way, I have good news for you. The main force of the 8th Regiment and the driver led by Wang Gang have successfully broken out of the encirclement and are currently marching northward along the highway. They are basically safe!"
A few minutes later, Zhang Ke's voice sounded, sounding much more relaxed than before. It was obvious that he mostly agreed with the command's judgment, which meant that he mostly rejected his own conjectures.
"What the hell is Team
"...Uh...it seems to be a medical institution that has been engaged in research on secret projects. It has a high level of confidentiality, and I don't know the specifics. I only heard from Uncle Jiao that their commander is He Wanjun, no.
It is under the control of the military, and it seems that it should be directly led by Aunt Chu!"
This question was enough to stop Zhang Ke. It is said that the little fat man was originally engaged in military intelligence work. He was also a veteran of the alliance and had a very wide network of contacts. Government affairs usually could not be hidden from him. But regarding the information about Group X, he did
We know very little, and if Jiao Qiao hadn't revealed a few words, it would have been almost zero.
"...Is Chu Xia still alive?" After a few seconds of silence, Hong Tao suddenly asked a very lonely and unpopular question.
"Chu, Chuqiu's aunt's sister?" Zhang Ke didn't have this information in his mind for a while, and he was very unsure whether it was that person.
"Yes, it used to be locked in the West Room in my courtyard, but later it was moved to the Zhai Palace in Ditan Park."
"That should be it...it seems to have been handed over to Alexei. I really don't know the specific situation!"
"Let's make a bet. The chief researcher and specific leader of this X team is most likely Alexei. Early autumn, early autumn, you are such a good sister, I will never forget her!"
When he mentioned Alexei, Hong Tao felt that he might have guessed it right again. As the saying goes, a couple's kindness lasts for a hundred days. He and Chu Qiu must have spent more than one day together. Apart from the kindness, they must also know a lot about their personalities, especially
It's my understanding of her.
The character of this woman can be divided into two stages. The first stage was before the injury. Although she was a bit petty, there was no big problem with her overall character. But after her arm was amputated, the joy of getting married did not dilute her character.
He is withdrawn and likes to go to extremes when thinking about problems.
