Wasteland Commander

Chapter 240: The One Minute That Decides Victory


Little One watched the chaos over at Dawn City, eyes flashing red.

The attack of the Mutated Birds and Mutant Rats had achieved a certain effect, but he was not very satisfied with it.

These two creatures could only be considered as harassment; the real key to determining the outcome of the battle lay in the elite zombie force of one hundred thousand in his hands.

Days of continuous fighting had left piles of corpses under Dawn City, resembling a mountain, and even burning could not clean it completely.

These heaps of corpses became an easy path for a siege.

As the time approached midnight, he believed the Dawn Army and their horses would be weary, and Little One decisively ordered the final attack.

A hundred thousand elite zombies began to rapidly charge into the battlefield.

Among these hundred thousand zombies, there were thirty thousand Fat Zombies, over thirty thousand Armored Zombies, and more than thirty thousand Agile Zombies.

Additionally, there were over a thousand more highly evolved Level 1 Zombies and several hundred Level 2 Zombies like the King Kong.

For this attack, Little One made meticulous preparations.

The Armored Zombies found various metallic objects to cover their heads, protecting the most vulnerable part of the zombies.

On their backs, Fat Zombies clung tightly, using their bodies as shields to block stray bullets that could claim their lives at any moment.

Although the speed of Armored Zombies was not as fast as Agile Zombies, standing over two meters tall, they ran with giant strides, faster than normal humans.

As for the Agile Zombies, they were even quicker, rushing towards the frontline of the battlefield like runaway wild horses.

The artillery fire from the Dawn Army remained fierce; as if knowing tonight was the final moment, their fire was even more intense than the previous two days, and many zombies perished along the advance path.

In particular, the number of Giant Cannons seemed to have increased; each destructive shell that landed could take out a group of zombies.

Fortunately, Little One was not unprepared; the formation of the zombie horde began to disperse to minimize splash damage from the Giant Cannons.

Even with the enemy's Giant Cannons, the number of casualties today had decreased compared to the previous days.

After all, most of the landmines had already been triggered; as long as they withstood the gunfire and artillery assault, they could successfully reach the city walls.

At this moment, the east gate of Dawn City suddenly opened wide!

The Dawn Dragon Armored Train roared out of the city.

After two days of rest, the train now appeared in optimal condition, starting to attack the incoming horde along the railway line.

This moving metal fortress was almost invincible, only in close proximity could the Tyrannosaurus pose a threat to the train, and that too only when the train advanced slowly or stopped.

Little One watched this train that had brought him countless painful memories and decisively ordered to ignore it, just charge!

Many zombies were shot during the charge, but most managed to move out of the railway's range and continued advancing.

Seeing the zombies ignoring the train, the tank battalion from Dawn City began to appear.

Thirty-five tanks and sixty armored vehicles swarmed out of the city, swiftly joining the battle.

Zombies could ignore the train because the train could not leave the railroad tracks.

However, they could not ignore these small vehicles, as the enemy could chase them down.

Some zombies had to be dispatched to start fighting the motorized vehicles.

After all, with over a hundred thousand zombies, dispatching more than twenty thousand of them, all being Advanced Zombies, meant the armored unit had to deal with them cautiously.

With split forces and losses, about fifty thousand zombies eventually approached Dawn City.

These zombies linked up with the Mutated Birds and Mutant Rats still tangling with the internal city garrison, forming a strong attack group.

At this moment, the number of Mutated Birds and Rats near the walls had decreased to about fifteen thousand.

But with the zombies, the number again reached two hundred thousand, forming a massive force.

Especially with a significant number of Fat Zombies reaching the walls under the cover of the Iron Armor, causing great trouble for the Dawn Army survivors.

Highly corrosive toxic liquids sprayed up from beneath the city walls.

The Dawn Army's defense line, almost at an advantage, was immediately hit hard.

The number of casualties among the soldiers began to surge, and even some parts of the line faced critical danger.

In the advanced zombie group, Level 2 Zombies like the King Kong were hard to kill, bringing danger wherever they went.

At this time, the deadly towers of the Dawn Army began firing lasers again.

Each laser seemed like a reaper's call, easily piercing through the defenses of the Level 2 Zombies.

Both King Kong and Crawlers were primary targets for the lasers.

Of course, the Light Prism Tower wasn't the main force; the main force was always the increasingly powerful artillery of the Dawn Army.

Double-barreled anti-aircraft machine guns and autocannons were already deployed on the walls; this lethal weapon with a caliber of 14.5 could hardly distinguish between normal zombies and Iron Armor.

Ordinary zombies fall with one shot, and even Iron Armor can't withstand three shots.

The zombie horde appeared overwhelming, causing significant trouble for the Dawn Army, but every second their numbers rapidly decreased.

The battle gradually entered the stage of hand-to-hand combat, with zombies unaware of death on one side, and the commanding officers holding firm order and fearless Dawn Army warriors on the other.

Neither side would retreat, nor did they understand retreat.

There was only one thought in their minds: kill, completely obliterate the other side, and win the final victory.

On the Dawn Army's side, Tang Yafei's Hero Level armed helicopter and Hero Level gunship also began to deploy.

The firepower of these two aircraft was exceptionally strong, especially the gunship, with twenty firing points, it was like a flying battle fortress.

The pilot used the beacon to circle above the south gate, with the power of a single aircraft, to block the attack of a large swarm of mutated birds, greatly reducing the pressure on the wall.

Even ten snipers were temporarily stuffed into this aircraft.

The main task of these snipers was to continually shoot the Fat Zombies on the ground.

In addition to these gunners, the plane was also loaded with many ammunition boxes.

Ye Fan gave them the task that unless all the ammunition was used up, they were not allowed to return.

Wherever the plane passed, zombies fell like mown grass, mutant rats were simply wiped out in waves.

Even Level 2 King Kong Zombies kept falling under the crazy barrage of the machine cannons.

Tang Yafei was also putting up a strong fight, sweeping with machine guns while occasionally a few air-to-ground missiles were fired; her targets were even the Level 3 Zombies.

However, the helicopter couldn't move too fast, as the mutated birds posed some threat to the aircraft. She had to coordinate with the gunship and didn't dare to venture too deep into the battlefield.

But their coordination still turned the fiercest battleground at the south gate into a graveyard.

On top of the wall, there were constant flames from flamethrowers consuming bodies, occasional Molotov cocktails being thrown down, and even grenades from scouts provided support to prevent a pile-up of corpses.

Tat-tat-tat-tat~~!

Da-da-da-da~~~!

Boom-boom-boom~~~~!

Countless gunfire and explosions echoed through the sky. Dawn City was like an indefatigable erupting volcano, with powerful resilience and aggression, withstanding wave after wave of the zombies' frenzied assaults.

Until the Level 3 Zombies appeared, the stalemate finally broke.

Eleven heads!

A total of five Tyrannosaurus Zombies and six Lickers, this was the most elite force from Little One's side, deployed all at once into the battlefield.

These Level 3 Zombies were initially hiding in the back, appearing suddenly when the situation reached a deadlock.

The power of the Level 3 Zombies was overwhelming; Tyrannosaurus Zombies were hard to damage with ordinary weapons, and Lickers were difficult to lock onto for attack.

Their appearance stirred up another wave of turmoil.

Apart from two Lickers and one Tyrannosaurus being eliminated under concentrated fire from the Light Prism Towers, the remaining eight got close to the wall!

On the wall, Ye Fan witnessed this and knew the last moment had arrived.

One minute, within one minute if these eight Level 3 Zombies couldn't be dealt with, the wall would surely fall!

Although there were still sturdy walls inside Dawn City, the residents inside would suffer disaster.

So the time left to him was only one minute!

The firing speed of the Light Prism Towers wasn't fast, requiring continuous power replenishment and charging, taking about twenty seconds to unleash a lethal laser, and targeting to kill Level 3 Zombies required focused fire.

Within one minute, the Light Prisms could at most kill three Level 3 Zombies.

There were still five that must be handled.

Ye Fan immediately issued the order for the Light Prism Towers to concentrate fire and eliminate three Tyrannosaurs!

The War Hawk team, with a Hero Level War Hawk, led a group of Level 3 War Hawks to hold off one Licker.

The military dog side, with Hero Level military dog Xiaotian, led a group of Three-Star Military Dogs to hold off one Licker.

The War Bear team, with more than two hundred heads, although without Heroic Unit, being tough-skinned and thickly muscled, needed to hold off one Licker as well.

Magnetic Storm Infantry Udyr, taken from the supply box, led a group of Three-Star Infantry to hold off one Licker, and strive to eliminate it.

For the last Tyrannosaurus, Ye Fan decisively let Xiaoba, who's half-full, come over to take it down no matter what.

As long as they could last one minute and twenty seconds, the Light Prism would recharge again to tide over this wave.

With Ye Fan's order, even the Heroic Units which hadn't moved in the most dangerous time within the city, began to rush forward.

Xiaoba swung its tentacles, quickly rushing over from the East District, stretching out two tentacles, grabbing a Tyrannosaurus and pulling it into the Seven-Star River!

The Tyrannosaurus roared incessantly, frantically inflicting damage on Xiaoba, but at this moment, Xiaoba had evolved to Two-Star.

In the Red Alert game, deep-sea octopuses needed to take down at least two battleships to have a chance to star up, showing how much Xiaoba had consumed.

Having evolved to Two-Star, its tentacle length exceeded forty meters, nearly reaching the wall height while standing there.

Even though this Tyrannosaurus was very strong, it was still pulled into the river by Xiaoba, instantly causing a flood in the icy Seven-Star River, with two monsters fiercely battling, inseparable.

The Light Prism's concentrated fire had already taken down one Tyrannosaurus.

Every other battlefield was engaged in intense combat, although a clear victory wasn't achieved immediately, and casualties still occurred, the situation was temporarily stabilized.

Seeing they would get through this toughest wave, Ye Fan began his counterattack.

At present, of the three million zombie horde, only about a hundred thousand remain fighting under Dawn City, and those in the distance number only sixty to seventy thousand.

Although the Corpse King's specific location could not yet be identified, Ye Fan already had a tactic.

Being too close, the Giant Cannon couldn't damage the zombies beneath the wall, so he ordered all Giant Cannons to fire at the zombie horde headquarters over there.

Can't you gather mutated birds to block? Then block.

As the Giant Cannon roared again, in the Dawn Army's core area airport, two Attack-8 Fighters also began to take off.

Pilot Shen Long and his partner in the other fighter were to circle behind the zombie horde, search for the Corpse King, and launch the final assault!
