Bronze door through time and space

Chapter 686 Anxiety
As the divine wind landed, flames shot up into the sky, the earth shook, and all things trembled.

Only the tank regiment that had been replenished seemed to have heard the charge horn, stepped on the accelerator to the bottom, and drove out of the base quickly, while the fully armed Zombie King followed closely behind, with the Type 38 rifles flying the Rising Sun flag in front, and rushed towards the second line of defense in a coordinated formation of infantry and tanks, as if they had returned to World War II.

But as soon as they got out of the fog, the tank regiment was targeted by the coalition forces, even though they had just suffered a kamikaze attack.

The system of modern warfare is so perfect that there are corresponding plans for various situations.

In fact, even if the kamikaze destroyed the entire front-line command center, it would be taken over remotely by the rear, not to mention that the damage caused by the kamikaze was far less than imagined.

One hundred Kamikazes, even if loaded with large amounts of high explosives, are far from enough to destroy an entire modern defense line. Moreover, although the anti-aircraft missiles are ineffective, the anti-aircraft guns are not affected by the Ghost Samurai, and they are also not something that the propeller planes of World War II can ignore. Therefore, most of them were destroyed during the dive. Therefore, the defense line did not suffer too much damage, at least the main body was intact.

Moreover, even if a gap is blown open, it will be covered by firepower on both sides and the rear, and it will not be easy to break through.

Otherwise, modern warfare would not have evolved into a war of attrition, consuming the lives, ammunition and resources of both sides.

Of course, these are just data on paper. The flames brought by the kamikaze have not yet dissipated, and the ammunition piled up in the positions will explode from time to time. Even if an order is given, how many soldiers will be willing to enter the trenches with unknown conditions? Most of them are now huddled in air-raid shelters and the rear, waiting for the dust to settle or for them to receive further orders from their superiors.

The scene caused by 500 kilograms of high explosives is not something that ordinary people can endure. The shock wave directly swept across an area of ​​hundreds of meters in radius. No one wants to feel it, and there is more than one, and no one knows whether there will be the next wave. Anyway, it’s better to delay it as long as possible.

This created a rare window of opportunity, and this was exactly the opportunity that Taijun's side needed to seize.

Although the Type 95 light tank is thin and fragile, it is small and light, and is very suitable for the environment of the island country. It is like returning home now. Neither the narrow roads nor the soft farmland can stop these little beans from running out like rabbits, so they approach the position at a very fast speed.

At this time, the Douding tank stepped on the accelerator to the bottom and drove quickly on the bumpy ground. It didn't care whether there was a minefield or a firing point in front of it. Even if it was blown up, it would be pushed away by the tanks behind and continue to move forward without wasting any time.

Such a huge sacrifice was made just to help the medium tanks and infantry behind to clear a path, because they didn't have much time left and had to get as close to the defense line as possible before the coalition forces could react.

While counting the losses, the coalition forces were also constantly contacting the troops on the front line and issuing more accurate and strict orders.

They also knew very well that they could not expect these soldiers to take the initiative to carry out dangerous tasks, and they had to be strict enough.

Because the organization was still there, as orders were issued step by step, under the leadership of grassroots officers, a large number of soldiers rushed into the trenches and bunkers carrying equipment and ammunition to prepare for battle, whether they were willing or not.

"Fuck! Fire!"

As soon as they set up the machine gun, they saw the little tank almost right in front of them. Many molds cursed and then opened fire immediately.

Although the members of the Self-Defense Forces were reluctant, it was wartime and they could not afford the price of disobeying orders, so they could only open fire and pray in their hearts, hoping that their ancestors would forgive them.

As a large number of personnel were deployed to the front line, lines of fire gradually spread across the front of the entire position like awakened fire snakes, hitting the tin tanks with sparks and firelight in the holes. However, the zombie lord inside the tank, which had gained several kilograms in a moment, was still alive. In fact, as long as it was not broken or shot in the head, it was difficult for the undead zombie lord to completely lose its combat effectiveness.

It just so happened that the purely mechanical structure of the old tanks also allowed the tank guns and machine guns to still be used normally, so they were simply used as fixed firepower points to try to suppress the firepower of the coalition forces and to protect the people behind.

Unfortunately, the difference in firepower between the two sides was too great, just like the difference between a water gun and a fire hydrant.

There was no way. The Zombie King was equipped with the standard weapons of the Japanese during World War II, and the Japanese at that time had no money to develop heavy equipment. Even automatic rifles and heavy machine guns were difficult to equip on a large scale.

For the Japanese who are short of resources, instead of researching and manufacturing these, it is better to rely on precise rifle shooting and iron will to destroy the enemy.

As for whether it can be done, that is none of their business. After all, replenishing troops is just a matter of a postage stamp. As long as all the men on the island country are not dead, they can use the lives of cattle and horses to consume the enemy's steel and resources.

Unfortunately, World War II has proven that this decision is nonsense, let alone in modern times.

The coalition was already at a disadvantage in the firepower confrontation. When the coalition forces used more rocket launchers and grenades, as well as the increasingly powerful mortars, even the Type 97 modified medium tanks that arrived could not withstand it and simply stopped to serve as fixed firepower points and bunkers, because this distance was exactly the comfort zone of the Zombie King.

What the Japs were best at was accurate shooting, especially at a distance of two to three hundred meters. Whether it was burst fire from a rifle or a grenade launcher, the hit rate was frighteningly high.

Now that they have become zombies, they don’t need to worry about physical strength, nor are they affected by heartbeat and breathing. They are not afraid of death. Except for wind direction and weapons, nothing can stop them from reaping lives.

The most deadly thing is that the Zombie King has night vision capabilities, and the coalition forces can only rely on flares and spotlights when the infrared night vision goggles are ineffective.

However, the flares could cause omissions, and after the spotlights were blown up, no one dared to replace them, so they were once again at a disadvantage.

At this time, the Zombie King used the same trick again, using tanks to attract firepower, while they scattered and looked for opportunities to rush into the trenches for close combat.

But Lieutenant General Rip was really investing too much money. Under his strict orders, the island nation had to contribute money and manpower. There were no less than 100,000 mines buried in the entire defense line, and the barbed wire was hundreds of meters wide.

Zombie Taijun is just an undead creature, not a superman. Although he will not be blown to pieces by stepping on a modern infantry mine, his destroyed legs and feet will greatly reduce his movement speed. It will be even more troublesome once he is entangled by barbed wire. These all need to be cleaned up bit by bit.

One side relied on its fearlessness of death, while the other side relied on its firepower advantage. On the wide defense line, the two sides were engaged in a fierce battle, constantly losing lives.

In general, the fearless Zombie Lord is more proactive, while the coalition forces are more passive and have no choice.
