Zheng Jinnan and his team were right, the Dawn Army planned to push through directly.
The officers fully understood the Commander-in-Chief's intentions. Since they were going to act, they had to do it with flair and momentum, making people look at them with new eyes.
For this goal, the officers formulated a very meticulous battle plan.
For example, they stormed through directly.
The artillery fired first, bombarding all directions wildly.
This wave directly tore the old lady's zombie horde apart.
The long-range rocket strikes were so powerful that they covered even the distant edges of the zombie horde, and the area where the old lady was located faced concentrated attack.
Fortunately, the Corpse Kings were quite alert. The old lady's Corpse King had several King Kongs crouch over itself as a meat shield, barely escaping disaster.
In the past, humans were seen as food by the zombie horde, but to be so arrogant now—this could not be tolerated!
The old lady roared in anger, and the million-strong zombie horde collectively charged, overwhelming and rushing forward.
The Dawn Army's main battlefield was the central avenue of the county town, a mainland over 150 meters wide, running from south to north.
The soldiers of the Second Field Brigade had already set up defenses along the street. There were fewer zombies at the county town's edge, and they had occupied every tall building.
Within a few kilometers along the street, soldiers of the Dawn Army occupied every floor and window except the first floor.
At the end of the street, a dark mass of armored units was ready to go.
Behind the armored units, the artillery continually fired shells, drawing more and more zombies to the area.
When the zombie horde entered the street, soldiers in the tall buildings on both sides opened fire.
For this zombie-clearing operation, Ye Fan used the remaining 1.5 million funds and all the income from mining and the trading market in recent days to purchase ammunition, ensuring the soldiers had ample firepower.
All the first floors of the tall buildings were sealed off. Soldiers inside the buildings were surrounded by ammunition boxes.
The dense rain of bullets poured down, really like a storm!
The zombie horde relied on smell and sound to determine the enemy's position, but now their hearing was no longer sufficient.
Gunfire echoed everywhere on the street, making it impossible to discern the direction of the sound.
The smell of gunpowder was everywhere, and their sense of taste had already failed.
Some zombies attempted to attack the surrounding buildings, but the first floors were blocked, preventing them from breaking in for the time being.
Even if Agile Zombies managed to climb to the second floor, soldiers would quickly retreat to the third floor, not giving these zombies any chance.
Mutated Birds tried to attack, but the windows were so small, and there was a Flamethrower Warrior guarding each floor. Whenever bird flocks approached, a stream of flames shot out immediately, filling the air with flaming birds, accompanied by the aroma of roasted meat, falling with a crackling sound.
Flamethrowers on both sides of the street continually emitted flames, creating crisscrossing fire streams in the air, making for a spectacular scene.
The foremost tall buildings encountered enough attacks, and as zombies climbed the stairs, the soldiers gradually retreated to higher ground.
By the time they reached the rooftop, Black Hawk helicopters were already waiting there under the protection of the War Eagle Team, to evacuate these soldiers and continue fortifying the rear buildings.
After several twists and turns, the zombies gradually abandoned their attack on the buildings, with more pressing forward along the street.
Because the old lady zombie found that most of the enemies were at the end of the street.
Soon, the street was littered with corpses.
This was truly a scene of bodies strewn everywhere, zombies lying dismembered in disarray, quickly covering the ground with a layer.
The zombie horde had to sacrifice thousands with each meter they advanced.
TV cameramen captured the intense battle scenes with long-range lenses.
On a straight street, smoke filled the air, golden dots fell like heavy rain, and the ground was already blurred with blood and flesh.
Deafening gunfire and cannon blasts were incessant, with bombs continually landing on the street, sending many zombies flying into the sky with each explosion.
The sight of body parts flying everywhere was rare even after the apocalypse. The live broadcast of such scenes deeply shocked everyone's nerves.
On Wanguo Island, no, now called Dawn Island, most people were staring intently at the TV program.
During the apocalypse, conflicts among people were generally called internal conflicts, but the threat of zombies was very real.
Although Dawn Island was at the mouth of the Celestial River, surrounded by water and relatively safe, people could not leave the island, which was a deep regret.
With the vast world outside, who would be content to live confined on an island?
The past multinational forces didn't have this capability, but today the Dawn Army achieved it.
Watching such large-scale zombie slaughter scenes filled them with excitement.
"So powerful! So powerful! It's the first time I know that zombies could be fought like this!"
"Yeah, back when we fought zombies, we only had fire axes and compound bows. We never saw such momentum in a regular army."
"A regular army doesn't necessarily have such momentum. Multinational forces are considered regular too, yet they didn't conquer a single county town for over a year. Our supplies still have to be imported from Jiangzhou and other bases."
"It has to be the Dawn Army, capable of easily defeating multinational forces. I'm starting to think, letting them rule this island might not be a bad thing."
Some spoke their minds, some remained silent, but even those silent gradually began to recognize the Dawn Army.
This is the admiration psychology of humans. When the opponent becomes so powerful that you cannot reach them, you think not of resistance but of submission.
A mere television broadcast had an effect on people's hearts far greater than a month of arrests by the military system.
They thought the current scene was already strong, but the more powerful was yet to come.
When the zombie horde struggled to reach the end of the street, the armored units, which had been poised for action, were deployed.
This was Wang Hu's battle plan: let the tanks charge through.
The appearance of two hundred Apocalypse Tanks immediately drew everyone's attention.
Because nobody had seen such tanks before; not only were they immensely large, but they also had dual barrels. No one knew how they were designed.
The tanks formed a horizontal line, ten by ten in an interlocking formation, charging directly at the oncoming horde.
The barrels continuously fired powerful shells outward, while the anti-aircraft and co-axial machine guns on top of the vehicles roared furiously.
Each tank was a deadly explosive weapon, mowing down the zombie horde in its path.
Some zombies barely managed to reach the tanks and attempted an attack, only to find their efforts futile.
The speed of these Apocalypse Tanks could reach a terrifying eighty kilometers, and each weighed over eighty tons, making their charge unstoppable.
Whether it was Iron Armor, King Kong, an Agile Zombie, or a Crawler in their path, nothing could halt the advance of the Apocalypse Tanks.
The sharp fangs and claws of the zombies couldn't even leave a mark on the Apocalypse Tanks.
A towering King Kong Zombie, whose size seemed on the verge of evolving into a Tyrannosaurus, tried to withstand an Apocalypse Tank, only slightly slowing it down.
The tank increased its power, and the electronically controlled machine gun targeted King Kong's head, unleashing a frenzied assault!
King Kong Zombie's head was extremely hard, not easily shattered even by a heavy machine gun, but at such close range, it was knocked off balance.
The tank revved its engine and charged forward, crushing King Kong under its tracks.
The massive metal tracks brutally crushed the King Kong Zombie!
Vibrantly colored innards gushed forth, and King Kong was actually crushed to death!
It seemed as though the Apocalypse Tank had done something trivial, continuing to crush the bodies lining the street.
Black ichor flowed across the entire roadway, flesh and blood crushed into a sticky mess, resembling a carpet covering the entire street.
The first row of Apocalypse Tanks advanced several hundred meters, expending their ammunition, then slowed, allowing the second row of Apocalypse Tanks to continue the ferocious assault.
People followed the drone footage, looking down upon the scene from above.
Soldiers on the rooftops kept firing, gunning down large groups of zombies.
On the ground, tanks spewed bullet torrents, driving forward against the horde.
The horde, of course, knew neither fatigue nor fear, using their flesh to challenge these steel behemoths.
The black tide of zombies clashed head-on with the iron torrent on the street.
The previously invincible zombie horde astonishingly retreated under the advance of the iron torrent.
The black force was constantly crushed and devoured.
The iron torrent was completely unaffected, plowing forward relentlessly!
At this moment, people profoundly realized just how powerful the Dawn Army had become.
If this power had existed at the start of the apocalypse, might the entire country have already been reclaimed by now?
Many watching on TV felt excited, their hands trembling continuously.
So strong, truly so strong!
Could Jiangzhou really stand against such an army?
If they sincerely submitted to Ye Fan, wouldn't such a powerful army be theirs?
Just as they thought this was shocking enough, an even more awe-inspiring scene unfolded.
The old lady Corpse King had already realized this group was formidable and that if the battle continued, her million zombies might not last a day before being annihilated.
Though not as wise as Wang Huining or Little One, she was somewhat enlightened.
She knew ordinary zombies couldn't stop those tanks, so she deployed her strongest zombies.
The old lady Corpse King had six Tyrannosaurs and seven Lickers under her command.
She hoped to use these powerful Level 3 Zombies to damage the arrogant tanks.
Thus, the Tyrannosaurs entered the fight.
When these five-meter-tall giants appeared, many of those watching became frightened.
Could humans resist such zombies?
The answer soon came: ordinary people couldn't, but the Dawn Army could.
When the Tyrannosaurs appeared, the Dawn Army's Flamethrower Warriors in the high-rise buildings projected a crossfire of flames into the sky.
The sea of fire nearly enveloped the skies over several kilometers, the intense heat driving mutated birds away.
At this moment, the Dawn Army's bombers appeared!
Five bombers flew in a single column, roaring across the sky above the street.
The bomb bays opened, and massive aerial bombs descended from the heavens!
The area teeming with Tyrannosaurus Zombies and Lickers was heavily bombarded by the bombers!
