Driving the train directly, charging towards the army of a million zombies, Ye Fan's action was astounding!
At that moment, the citizens of Dawn City even felt that their Leader Ye intended to heroically sacrifice himself.
However, the images broadcasted on the television next made them cheer with joy.
********
From the moment Ye Fan decided to launch an assault from the railway, he was already planning the feasibility of this task.
Normally, attacking a horde of zombies by train was a sure death.
The reason being the sheer number of zombies being so large that they could overturn the train.
Nevertheless, Ye Fan had asked Train Conductor Ji Xun, and as long as the train maintained a speed above sixty kilometers per hour, it was basically impossible for it to be overturned by impact.
If it maintained a speed above eighty kilometers per hour, then even a group of Level 2 Zombies couldn't stop the train.
If it maintained a speed above one hundred kilometers per hour, they could even traverse through Huacheng.
Therefore, Ye Fan decided, ordering the train to maintain a speed above eighty kilometers per hour.
As they drew closer to the horde of zombies, Ye Fan's heart was pounding nervously.
This horde had already overrun the Divine Dragon Army of Crane City, their strength was undeniable.
In any case, Ye Fan was determined to face them head-on.
His perspective switched to that of a War Hawk, overlooking the horde from above.
What he was about to encounter was the vanguard of the horde.
He didn't know where the Corpse King of this horde was, but there were over ten Level 2 Zombies within this vanguard.
As for ordinary mutants, they were countless and innumerable.
"Everyone ready! Missile troops, aim at the position of the opponent's Level 2 Zombies!"
"When a Level 2 approaches, use the autocannons to eliminate immediately, and heavy machine guns focus on sniping the opponent's mutants, no need to deliberately aim for ordinary zombies."
"Maintain the train speed, you can only accelerate during movement, no slowing down!"
Chief of Staff Zhongjing also boarded the train, issuing a series of commands.
The train thunderously advanced, ahead was Pinggang Town Station.
The train speed increased to ninety kilometers per hour, and as it rushed past the platform of Pinggang Town Station, it met the vanguard of the zombies head-on!
There were countless zombies on the railway line too, advancing along the tracks.
The moment these mindless creatures saw the train approaching, they immediately bared their fangs and claws.
Roar~~~!
They could sense the scent of fleshy life within the train, and zombies would actively pursue moving objects.
A large group of zombies roared, lunging at the train from the front!
Ye Fan held his breath, waiting for that moment of encounter.
The people in front of the television also held their breath, some too timid to even watch.
The expressions of the people in front of the television at that moment were a display of the myriad of human emotions.
Some clasped their hands, chanting Amitabha.
Some crossed themselves, saying "God bless."
Some held their loved one's hand, and others embraced their children.
Many kept their eyes shut tightly, while more remained solemn.
This collision by Ye Fan was of historic proportions; if this train broke through and engaged in fierce combat with the zombies, it would prove the viability of this venture.
If they couldn't break through or were overrun by zombies quickly, people really needed to consider if they could continue to survive in this world.
Even Ye Fan's enemies didn't wish for him to be taken out by the zombies at this moment.
Guo Zhun, Li Yuntian, and Rikov; what they hoped most was for Ye Fan to hold out a bit longer, ideally destroying a significant part of the horde's living forces.
Causing mutual destruction would be the best outcome.
Under countless gazes, the collision began!
********
The Dawn Giant Dragon let out a shrill whistle.
A towering King Kong Zombie happened to be on the railway line, and seeing the train coming, it roared and charged forward!
In the wind and snow, a cluster of red flowers bloomed at the train's head!
Bam~~~!
The zombie's body spiraled into the air, flying up!
At the moment of collision, there was a slight tremor within the train, but it quickly adapted to this rhythm and force.
In front of the train lay endless zombies.
The creaking and grinding sounds of collision and flesh against bones made one's scalp tingle.
Large batches of blood surged from under the train's wheels, regardless of which zombie dared to stand in the train's path, only facing death!
Mutant Rats attempted to attack the train with their claws and teeth, but the rapidly rotating metal wheels were like the chariots of Death; plunging their heads in, they instantly turned into mincemeat!
Like a tractor plowing through soil, white snow and red blood became the main color tones here.
The horde of zombies, like a layer of dead skin over the earth, the train like a sharp scalpel slicing through that dead skin, even those with obsessive-compulsive disorder would find it satisfying.
In this situation, the train began to fire.
"Attention all! No parallel shooting, the angle is 45 to 90 degrees diagonally, both forward and backward, these are your shooting angles."
"Fire~~~~~~!"
Thousands of guns and cannons roared in unison!
Every shooting hole in the carriages had angles adjustable, the warriors fixated their weapons diagonally, lying prone on their bunks, and pulled the triggers!
The vehicle moved quickly, making it impossible to aim precisely, nor was precise aiming necessary.
All the zombies ahead were exposed, with no shooting blind spots.
The main purpose of slanted shooting was to hope the bullets could penetrate the zombies, skewering them like candied hawthorns.
Compared to the soldiers inside the carriage, those outside controlling the heavy machine guns and twin anti-aircraft machine guns had a much tougher job.
Amidst the wind and snow, they gripped the gun handles tightly.
When the command to open fire was issued, countless tongues of flame erupted from the train.
The metal barrage from bullets fell like raindrops.
The sound of a single heavy machine gun was "Clang clang clang clang...".
The sound of a hundred heavy machine guns was "Clang~~~~~!"
Steady tone, never changing.
Shells continuously hopped, the gun barrels constantly trembled.
The wind and snow fell on their faces, gun smoke filled the air.
Wherever the train passed, it was like mercury pouring down, autumn wind sweeping away fallen leaves.
Hordes of zombies were shattered under such an assault.
A mutant rat darted from afar, jumping high in the air.
In front of its eyes were three machine guns, two of which continued their task of slaughtering zombies, while the one best positioned to kill it raised its barrel.
"Clang clang clang clang~~~!"
The mutant rat's pouncing body went through several stages.
Pausing, shattering, blown away by the strong wind!
This was the Red Alert warriors' tacit understanding, knowing exactly when each should fire.
The most suitable shooter, the best angle, the most ammunition-saving strategy, all talents given by the system, impossible for any army to achieve no matter how much they trained.
A King Kong Zombie wasn't hit by the missile, it charged fiercely from the side within the zombie horde.
With a towering body taking huge strides, it lunged toward the train.
If it managed to grab the speeding train, it might even climb aboard.
A heavy machine gun team and an autocannon coordinated together.
The heavy machine gun team continuously fired bullets, slowing down the King Kong Zombie's advance.
As the train passed by, the autocannon found the most suitable angle and suddenly shifted aim!
30mm bullets with massive penetration power, forty rounds in succession!
The first ten rounds sparked off, the second ten rounds broke through the neck shell of the King Kong Zombie, and the last twenty rounds shattered its body completely!
As the King Kong Zombie fell like a collapsing golden mountain and jade pillar, this key target was considered sniped!
The nearly invincible King Kong Zombie of the past was now just a matter of taking a few extra bullets against the heavy firepower on the armored train and the extremely calm Three-Star Soldiers.
If there were only zombies, if this train had unlimited bullets, Ye Fan believed he could annihilate zombies globally.
The train plowed and surged through the zombie horde, and ahead appeared a large group of mutated birds!
Mutated birds were an important component of the newly formed zombie hordes.
They were the air force of zombies, mutated to cause huge trouble for humans.
Back when Crane City Base fell, if not for these mutated birds directly infiltrating the base, it wouldn't have been breached by zombies so swiftly.
However, since they dared to come, Ye Fan had ways to deal with the mutated birds.
"All anti-aircraft machine guns, stop flat firing. All Flamethrower Warriors prepare, snipe from long range, incinerate up close, don't let the mutated birds near the train!"
The twin anti-aircraft guns immediately raised their barrels, ceasing flat shooting.
The original design of anti-aircraft machine guns was for aerial targets, maximizing their power and range advantages.
Hence, facing the sky, the anti-aircraft machine guns were liberated.
The mutated birds in the sky, like numerous small planes, were eying a massive warship below.
But the warship's firepower was too overwhelming; as soon as the planes entered the airspace, they were ruthlessly shot down.
Despite their ability to fly, the bodies of mutated birds were not as robust as zombies.
Hit by bullets, they spiraled down from the sky immediately.
Falling into the zombie hordes, even if not dead, the smell of blood would lead to them being devoured by other zombies.
Some mutated birds managed to break through the machine gun blockade, folding their wings to descend from the sky.
But within fifty meters of the train, a barrage of fire dragons ascended!
A One-Star Flamethrower Warrior could shoot flames up to 50 meters, while a Three-Star could spray up to 70 meters!
Relying on feathers to fly, they feared flames the most. Once their feathers burned away, the bare wings couldn't support their bodies.
When the train spewed flames for the first time, over five thousand mutated birds were incinerated!
Compared to zombies, mutant beasts had some intelligence, and their instinctive fear of flames hadn't changed.
Thus, as this wave of mutated birds was burned to death, many following them, lacking command from directing zombies, took to the sky to try to distance themselves from the train!
People watching on television erupted into cheers!
The zombies' siege and mutated birds' cover left them barely seeing the train. They thought Ye Fan and the others were doomed.
But unexpectedly, flames surged skyward, the mutated birds retreated, and the Dawn Giant Dragon surged through the perilous area!
"There's hope!"
"Well done!"
"Ye Fan is amazing! That's the roar of the dragon!"
Beside Guo Zhun, one of his men involuntarily shouted out, making Guo Zhun's chest feel tight.
