On June 24, the Battle of Chuncheng, which lasted for a full month, finally came to an end and Chuncheng was recovered.
The consecutive recovery of two important cities brought the prestige of the central government back to the height before the end of the world. Of course, along with the central government, Huan Chu's name was also known to the world. Almost every survivor now knows that Huan Chu was the chief of staff of the Second Theater and the Third Theater, and was a crucial contributor to the victory of the two battles.
And thanks to the spread of the news by some people, Huan Chu¡¯s achievements in saving the last 20,000 remaining soldiers in Rongcheng were also ¡°discovered¡±.
Now, in the minds of all the survivors, Huan Chu is more of a victorious general than a super powerful god of death who has massacred an entire family.
It¡¯s just that all this has little to do with Huan Chu himself. He is on his way to Xiping non-stop. That's right, after the Battle of Spring City, Huan Chu added the title of Chief of Staff of the First Theater Zone to his title.
The recovery of two important cities represents not only the strength of the government, but also brings more than confidence to mankind. As one of the headquarters of the seven military regions, Rongcheng naturally has a lot of arms in its warehouses, while Chuncheng is the capital city of a border province, and its arms warehouses are still full.
In addition, the recovery of the two cities also brought a large amount of resources to mankind. Chengdu has completed preliminary cleanup, and the first batch of survivors will soon immigrate from Japan, and the surrounding radiation expansion has not encountered any obstacles. Spring City did not suffer much damage during the battle. After the engineering troops arrive, it is expected that it will be suitable for human habitation within a month and industrial development will resume.
After two battles, the government of the Republic, which had recovered its breath, could finally begin to live a self-sufficient life. It can be said that the balance of victory has gradually begun to tilt towards the side of mankind.
However, all the rejoicing survivors did not know that in the Battle of Spring City, a total of 90,000 soldiers were buried in this spring-like city all year round, including 22 generals. Buried with them were more than four million zombies and seventeen high-level zombies.
Only Huan Chu and many lower-level officers felt sad for these. In the eyes of the top government officials, these sacrifices were worth it. After all, after the victory of the two battles, Lhasa has set off a wave of enthusiasm for joining the army. The guerrilla corps alliance has hindered Huan Chu's fortune. The number of combatants has expanded to about 100,000, and the military is not to be outdone. More than a dozen newly formed An infantry division has begun preliminary training.
The arsenals left in the southwest due to the international situation now play a big role. It is precisely because of the existence of these semi-abandoned arsenals that the government can support the training of new soldiers and the two major battles. A steady stream of ammunition was transported from the rear and delivered to various regiments in various theaters.
When Huan Chu arrived in Xiping, the area around Rongcheng had been completely swept away. For the entire 100,000-strong army, their daily task is to train marksmanship. The training targets are zombies wandering around aimlessly.
¡°Anyway, there are no high-level zombies among these zombies anymore. Without their leader, they are not terrible even if they number in the tens of millions. Based on the head count, each soldier only needs to kill a hundred zombies to eliminate them. For this kind of unconscious zombie, it is very simple to do this. If it is on the vast prairie, I am afraid it can be done in one day.
¡°It¡¯s just that although there is the Chengdu Plain here, it is still densely populated with cities. The complex terrain and the reinforced concrete buildings have brought huge obstacles to the soldiers. It took nearly two months for the Second War Zone to capture all the cities around Rongcheng.
But similarly, the army also suffered continuous losses, with only less than 80,000 elites remaining in the 100,000-strong army. According to General Li's prediction, if it receives support from the central government, the Second War Zone is confident that all zombies in the two surrounding provinces will be cleared away within the year, and these two provinces will be firmly in human hands.
Naturally, the Third War Zone was not to be outdone. Unlike the Second War Zone, they shrank their defense lines and temporarily withdrew their troops from Shunyuan. In addition to building a line of defense against zombies, the remaining hundreds of thousands of troops were dispersed. , is expected to be able to control Yunnan within three months, and launch a further attack on Shunyuan.
But all this has nothing to do with Huan Chu, who serves as the chief of staff of two theaters at the same time. His plane had arrived at the military airport on the outskirts of Xiping.
This time he was accompanied by most of the Guns and Swords Regiment, and Li Sen also gave him strong support and sent him two hundred elite soldiers.
As soon as we got off the plane, General Wang, the former commander of the Xiping Military Region and now the commander-in-chief of the First Theater Command, came to visit him personally.??Welcome over. He did not rely on his old age at all, but held hands with Huan Chu, showing enough respect: "Xiao Huan, the old man has been waiting here for a long time!"
The first theater has already made sufficient preparations, and is only waiting for Huan Chu to lead the elite troops to launch an attack on Xiping.
Huan Chu was not willing to waste too much time, so he immediately led his cronies from the Gunsword Regiment into Xiping to investigate, and began to snipe high-level zombies.
Seven days later, on July 1, 2013, the Battle of Xiping began.
With the experience of ground combat in the Spring City Battle, Huan Chu, the chief of staff, provided many reliable strategies for the battle for the first time, such as using a mixed force of cybernetics and mechas as advance arrows to attract the attention of high-level zombies. Then the center blooms and is surrounded on all sides.
Following the same pattern as the Battle of Spring City, this time still achieved significant results. More than a million zombies were wiped out in one battle. Although it also caused huge casualties to the troops under the jurisdiction of the first theater, they were annihilated. Nearly one-fifth of the zombies in Xiping were killed, opening a gap for subsequent attacks.
Under the onslaught of a series of desperate human troops, on July 22, all high-level zombies in Xiping died, and Xiping fell back into human hands.
On August 1, the First War Zone and the Central Government announced at the same time that the Battle of Xiping was over, and mankind had once again regained a new city.
At this point, the first phase of the great counterattack has come to a successful end. The three empty cities plus the many villages, towns and small cities waiting to be recovered are like a body full of sex, legs spread, and constantly throwing beautiful women. There is no longer any rejection and defense, waiting for the central government. The government took over.
And the three provinces within easy reach are the greatest reward for mankind after the great counterattack. The supplies in one city are enough for the central government to live a comfortable life for a period of time. Nowadays, the materials, industries and human bases living in the three provinces can completely turn the government into a nouveau riche.
¡°Everyone believes that the day when human beings will quickly soar into the sky and take back the country is not far away, just like adding rocket thrusters.
But within the Central Military Commission and the government, some differences arose. Compared with the three recovered cities, the geographical location of Lhasa is not very good, the environment is a bit harsh, and the transportation is not particularly convenient. Compared with Chengdu, which has just completed further cleaning up and already has a population of hundreds of thousands, There is a big gap.
Therefore, some people took advantage of this opportunity to propose relocating the seat of the government to a more suitable city ahead.
In fact, this proposal can be said to be quite tempting. After it was proposed, even the two top leaders of the Republic were somewhat tempted. Compared with Chuncheng or Chengcheng, which have a pleasant climate and beautiful scenery, Lhasa's disadvantages are really obvious. Especially the terrain in the plateau area makes many people feel uncomfortable.
If it weren¡¯t for the threat of the apocalypse and zombies, few people would be willing to live in this place for such a long time.
However, during the video conference, this proposal was rejected by Huan Chu. The reason is simple. Although these cities are safe now, it does not mean that they will always be safe.
** Known as the roof of the world, the terrain here is the most natural advantage for humans to resist zombies. If we abandon this place, without the hindrance of plateau terrain and climate, can humans really withstand the onslaught of hundreds of millions of zombies?
This sentence impressed the general secretary, and the old man agreed with Huan Chu's idea. Moving here and there now is nothing more than a companionship and has no meaning at all. Rather than wasting precious manpower and material resources like this, it is better to wait until the capital is recovered and then relocate to solve the problem at once.
Of course, no one knows whether the General Secretary really thinks so or is just frightened by Huan Chu's words.
And this is just an interlude, Huan Chu is still exhausted on the front line, because after autumn, the second round of counterattack is about to begin.
The goal of this mission is to conquer the three cities of Jincheng, Yudu and Shunyuan, and completely bring the three newly recovered provinces under the control of the government.
The recruits, who had just been trained for a month, began to set foot on the front line. They first went to consolidate the three provinces, which was also equivalent to preliminary training.
But this kind of military training did not last long and was ended by an official document from the Central Military Commission. The second counterattack was about to begin in full force.
On September 22, Chongqing was restored. On September 30, all of Sichuan was liberated.
On October 18, Shunyuan was restored. On October 23, all of Yunnan was recovered.
On November 20, Jincheng was recovered. On December 3, all of Qinghai was recovered.
News of victory came one after another. Throughout the second half of 2013, the survivorsThey all spent their time in joy again and again. In everyone's eyes, it seemed that the day when the whole territory was restored was not far away.
"This is exactly the case. After receiving batch after batch of supplies, newly formed troops from the rear continued to move to the front line, rushing to battle one after another.
