The minute you even get near the zone you see an army outpost meant to keep people out as well as the mutants and horrors that reside inside the Zone in, the army guards are known for being rather corrupt and letting Stalkers in for the right price (2,000 Rubles, you only have 5,000 RU) but that seems rather expensive, shooting it out with them doesn't seem to be an option as you are only equipped with a Makarov and 3 clips (32 rounds of 9×18) and a leather jacket. You could sneak around the soldiers and go through a gap in the fence...
