Suddenly, Zhong Linyu's voice came through the headphones of the soldiers.
"Everyone prepare to retreat and execute Backup Plan 2!"
The so-called backup plan number 2 is to have personnel retreat 500 meters and tanks and helicopters retreat 100 meters.
After clearing the coastal road defenses, we awaited the arrival of the raging sea monster horde.
Then the tanks and helicopters opened fire directly, covering the area with artillery shells and rockets.
Meanwhile, rocket launchers located 15 kilometers away in a shelter will also launch a salvo.
The PHZ11 rocket artillery will be used in conjunction with saturation attacks to annihilate the remaining 500,000+ sea monsters in one fell swoop.
In Zhong Linyu's view.
If they continue like this, once the defense line is breached, none of the soldiers will survive.
By this time, the beach was piled high with the carcasses of more than 100,000 marine animals of various sizes.
If used properly, it can provide enough food for almost half a month for all the survivors in the shelter.
Now we have no choice but to give up our food rations.
He was responsible for the lives of his soldiers, and the idea of exchanging human lives for food was absolutely forbidden to him.
However, just as the order was given, Qin Luofei and Yu Dalong's voices rang out almost simultaneously.
"No, we can't retreat!"
Qin Luofei and Zhong Linyu have different identities and positions, so their priorities are also different.
Ten days from now, another cold wave will arrive, and who knows how long this cold wave will last.
The food rations for just half a month aren't even enough to fill a tooth gap.
Even if we retreat now, we will save the lives of our soldiers.
In the event of food shortages, not only will the soldiers starve to death, but the hundreds of thousands of survivors in the shelter will also starve to death.
Yu Dalong was not a manager, but he still chose to oppose Zhong Linyu's orders.
Because his thoughts are very pure and direct.
That is, they were willing to sacrifice their own lives to leave more hope for survival in the refuge.
Of course, Qin Luofei wasn't indifferent to the lives of the soldiers.
So she decisively ordered: "The current situation is suitable for implementing backup plan number 4!"
As expected, Zhong Linyu was the first to object.
"Number 4? No, that's too risky! Old Master Zhu said he couldn't guarantee the results!"
"I can't worry about that! Execute number 4 first, and if that doesn't work, then execute number 2. It's just a waste of a few more cannons."
Zhong Linyu said gravely, “Director Qin, I hope you understand that we don’t have many heavy weapons left.”
"Of course I understand, but I also hope that Staff Officer Zhong understands that I am the frontline commander and have the final decision-making authority!"
Upon hearing Qin Luofei's order, the soldiers on the defense line showed a determined look in their eyes.
"Boom boom..."
With a muffled roar and a plume of black smoke, the tank tracks lined up along the coastal road slowly began to turn.
However, the tank didn't move backward, but forward!
A long dragon of steel surged forth, heading straight towards the oncoming horde of sea monsters.
The soldiers next to the tank also climbed out of the sandbag trench and followed the tank to one side.
Using a classic infantry-tank coordinated formation, they advanced while firing.
This was the "Plan 4" discussed by the senior management, a plan that was almost abandoned during the discussion.
It all stemmed from the research findings of virologist Zhu Chaomin.
The berserkers are fearless and will charge forward even at the cost of their comrades' lives.
Yet, a trace of biological instinct and rationality remains.
For example, a sudden and loud noise might startle them and cause them to retreat.
Furthermore, Zhu Chaomin speculated that this kind of fright would be even more effective on groups of ferocious beasts.
If one frightened individual flees, it may lead more individuals to escape, ultimately resulting in a complete rout.
Although these sea creatures eventually calm down after their initial panic.
There is even a very high probability that they will launch another coordinated attack.
However, this delay in time and space can serve as a safe buffer.
Let the guards rest and recover, and prepare their equipment so that they can be in the best condition for the next battle.
Of course, speculation is just speculation.
As a populous city, Shanghai was the first to come into direct contact with the sea monsters, and its ammunition and military strength were plentiful.
Now that they have almost completely wiped out the horde of ferocious sea monsters, there is naturally no opportunity to verify this possibility.
Unfortunately, the troops in Shanghai could only go to nearby cities to provide support and had no time to attend to Fenghai City, which was far away.
As the military region's headquarters, the provincial capital of Fuzhou also has ample weapons and manpower.
Although they are still struggling in the quagmire of war against the beast hordes.
But it's not time to activate "Project 4" yet.
Therefore, Qin Luofei and her companions were facing an adventure with no precedent to follow.
This is also the fundamental reason why Zhong Linyu opposes it.
But it's too late now.
Qin Luofei used her on-site command privileges to directly order the main force to set off and slowly advance.
Watching the tanks and planes slowly moving forward, Qin Luofei clenched her fists nervously.
I prayed silently: Please, it has to work!
"boom!!!"
A deafening explosion rang out beside her; it was the sound of a tank firing.
Given the unique enemy group in this battle, the tanks did not use traditional armor-piercing rounds.
Instead, it is a high-explosive shell filled with powerful explosives, designed to kill unarmored targets.
The cannon's muzzle was parallel to the ground, aimed at the surging herd of beasts rather than the ground itself.
As the shell hurtled forward and embedded itself in the flesh of the first raging walrus, the fuse struck the walrus's bones.
A bright burst of fire exploded, sending a visible shockwave sweeping in all directions.
The first raging walrus hit exploded into a bloody mist, then vanished into nothingness under the intense heat of the explosion.
The fireball from the explosion was a full 5 meters in diameter.
Not only did it shatter the sea creatures within the area into pieces, but the aftershocks and debris also spread rapidly in all directions.
The nearby sea creatures were pierced by countless shrapnel, their vital signs vanished in the blink of an eye, and their massive bodies crashed to the ground.
This method of fighting not only preserved the integrity of the corpse to the greatest extent possible, but also did not damage the body of the already dead sea monster.
After the first shot, the surrounding tanks followed suit.
The main gunners hardly needed to aim precisely and pressed the fire control buttons one after another.
Then a series of crisp metallic clangs and gunpowder explosions rose and fell.
Flames, much brighter than before, lit up the beach.
A volley of tank shells blasted back the herd of beasts that was originally only 50 meters away from the coastal road, forcing them back more than ten meters.
However, even the sounds of tanks firing and shells exploding were so intense.
The beast tide showed no sign of abating, continuing to fearlessly fill the gaps and charge forward.
Upon seeing this, the soldiers couldn't help but shrink their pupils.
Backup plan #4 didn't work?!
At this moment, the most panicked person was Qin Luofei, who insisted on doing so.
But she knew she couldn't panic.
He forcibly suppressed the unease in his heart and looked at the beast horde with a serious expression.
But the voice was incredibly calm and resolute, ringing in the soldiers' ears: "Reload, and try again!"
