[Light Prism Tower, cost 20,000 Gold.]

This defense unit was listed for production after Ye Fan was promoted to Brigade Commander, but due to the high cost and energy consumption, Ye Fan had not built it.

Ye Fan remembered that this weapon could target accurately.

Today's battle is crucial, so Ye Fan added this defensive building to the production sequence.

Defensive structures, just like the Wall, can be mass-produced. Ye Fan first selected five.

[Light Prism Tower added to production sequence, takes one hour per unit, please be patient, Commander.]

After five hours, five Light Prism Towers can be completed.

About ten minutes later, the Dawn Army suddenly opened fire.

The cannons inside the city began firing shells into the distance.

In the distant blizzard, fireballs exploded on the ground.

Those were the orders from the radar station, based on the radar screen, launching attacks on the zombie horde.

It's afternoon now, and the Dawn Army's weapons are fully loaded, so they can pour out firepower freely.

With each explosion of huge fireballs among the zombie horde, a group of zombies is killed.

But they know no fear and continue advancing under the cannon fire.

The messy formation causes various zombies to suffer losses, but not significantly for any specific type.

After passing the cannon zone, they entered the rocket zone.

Round after round of artillery plowed the ground, causing the zombie horde to collapse in patches.

At the rear of the zombie horde, Little One, with a bucket on his head, waved his hand expressionlessly, and another 200,000 zombies closely followed.

After missing an opportunity last night, he wouldn't make the same mistake today. He vowed to take Dawn City in this heavy snow.

The first wave of 200,000 zombies hadn't reached the city wall, and the second wave of 200,000 had already started.

Moreover, a third wave of 200,000 was preparing. He wanted to see how many waves of zombie horde Dawn City could withstand.

Besides, Little One had hidden trump cards within these zombie hordes.

In his zombie horde, apart from a Level 3 Tyrannosaurus Zombie and a Level 3 Agile Zombie he named Licker, there were many zombies at the Peak of Level 2.

The reason he didn't act in the morning wasn't idleness but focused on nurturing Level 3 Zombies.

He had used many Level 2 Zombies as feed to nurture the zombies at the Peak of Level 2.

By the end of the day, he had forcibly cultivated five Tyrannosaurus Zombies and six Lickers.

This time, with an attack force of 600,000 in three waves, each wave had a Tyrannosaurus Zombie and a Licker hidden within.

He had these Advanced Zombies lying low, avoiding detection by mixing them among the zombie horde.

Once these Advanced Zombies approached the Wall, it would bring disaster!

.....

In the Dawn Army's artillery position, the soldiers were tirelessly and mechanically working.

Shell casings ejected, and new shells were loaded.

Boom, boom, boom~~~!

The cannons roared furiously, strictly following the coordinates transmitted back by the radar station.

The radar station continuously relayed real-time information, constantly adjusting the bombardment positions.

Large groups of zombies fell along the advance route, but the defending soldiers were not complacent.

With the help of night vision goggles, they could still vaguely see the zombies approaching, though visibility was low.

They knew that no matter how successful they were upfront, the outcome ultimately depended on the defenses near the Wall.

Though it was just after three in the afternoon, the snow-covered land was already starting to darken, with all the searchlights on the watchtower sweeping over the vast plains outside the south gate.

"They're coming!"

Thud, thud, thud~~~!

Continuous flares launched into the sky, instantly illuminating the plains.

On the ground, the dense zombie horde had already approached within a kilometer!

A large group of Mutated Birds circled in the dark, swooping down to consume the flares the moment they saw them.

And the War Eagle Team of the Dawn Army took off at this moment.

Ye Fan originally had over three hundred War Eagles, and now instantly selected one thousand seven hundred more.

Five hundred Gold each, one thousand seven hundred cost eighty-five thousand.

War Eagles are born with One-Star; their mission is to engage with the Mutated Birds in the sky and protect the flares as much as possible.

Little One did not anticipate the sudden involvement of the War Eagle Team, failing to have the Mutated Birds immediately consume those flares.

This gave the defending army a chance. When the zombies got within firing range, the rain of bullets from Dawn City poured down!

At this time, not all troops had night vision goggles, but all Snipers, Heavy Machine Gunners, Dual-Anti-Aircraft Gunners, Machine Cannon Operators, etc., were prioritized for night vision goggles.

No specific orders were needed, as every combatant knew what they should do.

For example, Armored Zombies, Agile Zombies, and Fat Zombies—such types needed to be dealt with first.

However, despite this, the killing efficiency is not as good as before.

Soon, the first wave of zombies approached the city wall.

After enduring artillery bombardment and focused sniping, nearly a hundred thousand zombies still approached the city wall.

Once they got within five hundred meters, the previously jogging zombie horde suddenly accelerated!

Howl~~~!

All the zombies seemed to go mad, advancing at their top speed while howling frantically, their momentum akin to beasts straight from hell, enough to terrify ordinary people to death.

But the warriors of the Dawn Army wouldn't; they didn't even know what fear was, unfazed in the slightest.

"All units, fire at will!"

On the city wall, seeing the zombies approach the five-hundred-meter range, Ye Fan gave the order, and all the city wall defenders began firing wildly.

The guards in the watch towers, the machine gunners in the machine gun bunkers, and all the warriors on the city walls formed countless firepower nets, and gunfire erupted like a string of firecrackers.

The zombies' frenzied assault was curbed, albeit only for a moment.

Numerous advanced zombies quickly surged forward, armored zombies pressed on under a rain of bullets, and countless mutant rats had already scurried out of the ranks, soon swarming beneath the city wall.

These mutant rats crazily climbed up the city wall; the smooth ice city wall could not stop their mutated claws, which easily allowed them to climb up along the ice surface.

The darkness and snowstorm still brought significant challenges, forcing the warriors to allocate forces to fire down from the wall, hoping to clear the mutant rats climbing up.

At this time, the mutant birds also launched an attack, beginning to assault the soldiers on the walls, trying to buy time for the mutant rats below.

On the city walls, the flamethrower warriors took the lead once more.

Jets of flames continued to shoot out; they could sweep away the mutant birds above and burn the mutant rats below.

Moreover, these flames provided a certain amount of illumination, reducing the effects of the snowstorm and darkness somewhat.

For now, under the prepared position of the Dawn Army, the mutant rats still couldn't completely scale the wall.

At this point, the bloated zombies appeared.

Some bloated zombies were completely hidden behind the armored zombies, and in this snowstorm and darkness, there were always some that could slip through and get close.

The appearance of bloated zombies brought significant trouble to the Dawn Army.

These bloated zombies with their bulging bellies, looking ready to explode at any moment, started to spray water crazily toward the city wall.

The corrosive acid in the spray wreaked havoc wherever it landed.

The ice surface could be easily melted, and any splashed onto humans would cause large patches of festering instantly.

The warriors of the Dawn Army were fully armed; Ye Fan had been promoted to brigade commander, and their uniforms were quite protective.

The winter gear included military coats, cotton hats, and night vision goggles to protect the eyes, leaving not much exposed.

However, facing such acid, they still couldn't fully defend against it.

Many warriors were injured upon being sprayed and had to withdraw quickly from the battlefield to receive treatment from medics.

Some were quite unlucky, being covered extensively, potentially dying on the spot.

Upon seeing this, Ye Fan immediately dispatched his guard company to the watch towers.

These sharpshooters joined the battle, and their first task was to focus on sniping the bloated zombies.

By taking out the opponent's long-range units, they could effectively protect the soldiers on the walls.

Fortunately, one weakness of the bloated zombies was that they exploded upon impact, affecting the surrounding zombies as well.

With the guard company joining the fray and focusing their fire, the precarious situation at the city wall was temporarily alleviated.

The battle entered a normal tug-of-war rhythm, and this situation persisted for about thirty minutes.

This wave of two hundred thousand zombies was almost entirely wiped out, with only about twenty thousand remaining below the city wall, and the second wave was on its way.

Typically at this moment, people would start to relax.

But just at this moment, the advanced zombies hidden within the horde made their move.

A Tyrannosaurus zombie, which had been lurking in the dark and snowy rear, suddenly charged forward.

It closed the kilometer distance in just a mere minute.

Standing five meters tall, dragging a massive tail, its enormous claws struck the wall, causing the ice surface to crack instantly!

The warriors of the Dawn Army immediately focused their fire on the Tyrannosaurus zombie.

Countless bullets struck it like popping corn, grenades were tossed, and rockets fired, but none could deal a fatal blow to this Level 3 Zombie.

The giant cannon aimed to fire, but the angle was unfeasible.

Thud! Thud!!!

Under continuous strikes, a four-meter-thick section of the ice city wall near the southern gate was shattered!

A collapse appeared in the wall!

A large swarm of zombies identified the opportunity and charged toward this breach, howling.

Countless people from afar, watching the livestream, felt their hearts leap into their throats in that tense moment!

Over at Ice City, Guo Zhun clenched his fists tightly; he wasn't sure whether he hoped for Dawn City to be breached immediately or to hold through this crisis.

But without a doubt, this zombie leader had already caused great trouble for the Dawn Army.

If the Tyrannosaurus couldn't be dealt with quickly and the breach plugged, Dawn City would be in great danger!
