The border of the Erne Empire, the city-state of Stanger.

When General Elier hurried to the outskirts of the city-state of Stanger, the tens of thousands of zombies outside the city were still gathered there. Looking at the closed gates of the city, General Elier couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

"Thankfully, Stanger hasn't been breached yet. Elaire thought to herself. Although he vaguely felt that something was wrong, he couldn't find it for a while, so he had to put aside these bad thoughts and think in a good direction.

Looking at the tall and majestic Stanger in front of him, Elier didn't have time to marvel at its ingenuity, and had to think about how to break through from the tens of thousands of zombies.

Obviously, if the defenders in the city can echo it, then Elier will definitely have a lot easier to enter the city. Therefore, he hurriedly sent a flying pigeon to pass the message to Lord Zorro, asking him to cooperate with his actions.

But General Elier waited for a long time, and even sent a few carrier pigeons, but did not get any response from the city, and all the information was like a stone sinking into the sea, without a ripple.

It was only then that General Elier finally realized that something was wrong, it was the voice, and there was no voice from anyone in the entire city-state. It's too quiet, the current city-state of Stanger is too quiet, the silence is terrifying.

Looking at the closed gates of the city gate and the zombies blocked out of the city, Eliel couldn't believe his speculation.

It wasn't until a zombie fell from the city that General Elier realized the seriousness of the matter.

The city-state of Stange had inexplicably fallen, and General Elier still did not know the real reason for the fall.

Of course, he'll find out soon, but that's for another time.

But now General Elier doesn't have time to think about the reasons behind it now, because there is a bigger problem that needs to be solved.

Now that General Elier and the armies of the four frontier cities are trapped outside by the city-state of Stange, it is ironic that what was once considered the strongest city of Erne has now become a trench that Erne's army cannot cross.

The Erne army, which could have rushed to the mainland, was forcibly blocked here.

At the same time, this also means that General Elier and they have completely lost contact with the royal capital, after all, the transmission distance of carrier pigeons is limited, and some cities are needed as transit points.

Stanger is the only transit point on the border and inland, and perhaps the Ernians never dreamed that one day this place would fall, but of course this is just the beginning of more "unexpected" things.

General Elier managed so much, and after thinking about everything, he pulled the team and ran back.

With his current team of only 5,000 cavalry, it is impossible to break through the tens of thousands of zombies, let alone break through this trench-like city-state of Stanger.

Now that the fall of the city-state of Stange has been confirmed, all the isolated Eliel has to do now is to return to the border, gather more troops, and prepare for the subsequent withdrawal.

On the border of the Ernne Empire, the city-state of Caldor.

The lord of the city-state of Kaldo is now leading the army to destroy the tens of thousands of zombies who broke through the defense line a few days ago, and despite paying a huge price, he still let thousands of zombies break through.

Fortunately, he informed General Elier in time who was guarding the city-state of Stanger, as the invincible "god of war" in the army, the lord of the city-state of Kaldo did not doubt General Elier's ability at all, but he didn't know why, but there was a faint uneasiness rising in his heart.

After a day of fighting, under the leadership of the lord, they finally wiped out all the zombies infiltrated in the territory of Caldor. There was even a grand celebration in the city that night, where people gathered in anticipation of the dawn.

Of course, no one could have predicted that this would also be their last supper. It was like the meal of a condemned prisoner before leaving, hearty and deadly.

At dawn the next day, people waited for the long-awaited dawn and hundreds of thousands of zombies under the light of dawn. The 30,000 defenders of the city also ushered in the last despair of their lives, despair in the light of dawn.

The same scene took place in Njili, one of the four border city-states.

On the border of the Ernne Empire, the city-state of Herret.

When General Elier hurried back again, seeing that the defense of the city-state of Herrett was still strong, General Elier's heart calmed down a little.

Of course, General Elier did not announce the fall of the city-state of Stanger, which did nothing good except to cause panic in the army.

What General Elier has to do now is how to stabilize the current situation and mobilize a large force to return to the interior. At least for now, General Elier has decisively chosen to abandon the border areas.

After all, having lost contact with the large rear, the food problem of the border army will soon break the psychological defense of all the defenders. When the time comes, zombies don't need to do anything, hunger can wipe them all out.

"It's a grim situation. ", General Elier sighed in his heart.

After days of rushing, General Elier is now no longer in the mood to raid the capital of Sada, and quickly conquer most of the Saada Empire. He is now alive like a bad old man, a bad old man with still sharp eyes.

Just as General Elier was thinking about how to stabilize the situation first and then evacuate in an orderly manner, bad news came one after another, catching him off guard.

First the fall of the city-state of Kaldor, then the city-state of Ngilli was also surrounded by hundreds of thousands of zombies, and finally the only remaining city-state of Gardak was about to be broken through by zombies.

Such a desperate situation has made Elier have no scruples, and no matter what he does next, it will not be worse than now.

After making up his mind, General Elier first wrote to the lord of the city-state of Gaddak, telling him to quickly evacuate to the city-state of Stanks with all the troops in the city, where he would join him.

Then he wrote to the lord of Engilli, asking him to defend the city, and he would come to his aid immediately. In fact, our General Elier had already withdrawn with all his soldiers in the direction of the city-state of Tank.

Of course, this is not a betrayal of teammates, but the result of careful consideration to maximize the interests of the army.

First of all, the fall of the city-state of Engili is only a matter of time, and if General Elier now tells them that he is evacuating, leaving them alone to face hundreds of thousands of zombies, it will be of little use except to bring despair.

And a desperate army, no one could have predicted what they would do. If they are quickly defeated in despair, the zombies will threaten the retreating Erne soldiers, leading to the annihilation of the entire army.

If it weren't for the fact that he was currently short of troops, General Elier would even have the troops of the city-state of Gardak assemble in the city-state of Herit in the same way to "break off" his army.

In fact, in essence, General Elier and General Seth are the same kind of people, who kill decisively and ensure the best interests of the army to the greatest extent. And such generals can often survive on the battlefield and create miracles.

Maybe they are cold-blooded and ruthless on the battlefield, but they can make more soldiers survive the battlefield. So, what is affectionate and what is ruthless, and who can understand it?
