Chapter 542: Xiyang City
Ye Qi jumped down, looked around, and found that it was a small dark room, only a dozen square meters, in the shape of a square.
At the corner of each room stands a round stone pillar, which is not very high, just over a meter. There was a relief on the stone pillar, and the leaf vessel walked over and looked closely, and found that there were different monsters standing on it, and their faces looked hideous. The gaping mouth was open to the black orb.
The black beads rotated slowly, constantly emitting a black luster, and he felt like a living thing.
Underneath the black beads is a futon that looks as if someone has meditated here.
Ye Qi felt that this bead should be a strange thing, but he didn't know exactly what it was, so he put it away directly.
After doing all this, Ye Qi quickly flew towards Tianyun City, and he had to tell Qin Tian about it immediately.
Just after the leaf ware left, the beads in the dark room suddenly cracked on the surface, and then exploded with a bang.
In Xiyang City, the strong city gate was closed, and all the guards stationed in the city were dispatched and stood on the city gate.
In the distance, teams of huge zombies are slowly approaching.
Chang Weifeng, the captain of the guard, stood on the city gate tower, his eyelids jumped, and he looked at the zombies coming in the distance with some fear, and the zombie team was thousands of people.
Then he turned his head to look at the few soldiers on the wall, but there were hundreds. Although those soldiers forcibly pretended to be brave because of his arrival, Chang Weifeng could see that they were trembling.
However, Chang Weifeng didn't blame them, after all, there were hundreds of people facing thousands of zombies, and frankly speaking, they were fools.
Their fears are rightfully warranted.
Of course, it can't be said that they don't have an advantage, but even if they do, it's only because of the three-meter-tall wall, which is their first line of defense.
Thinking of this, he not only asked, "How is our city gate?"
One of the captains said loudly: "Report to the captain of the guard, the city gates have been blocked with boulders, and we have enough time to wait for reinforcements to arrive." ”
Chang Weifeng smiled slightly and nodded. However, he also knew that he was far from being optimistic at this time, and he also clearly realized that there was someone behind this group of zombies who was commanding, and the commander dared to attack Xiyang City, and he must have his support.
But he didn't dare to show this, after all, the big war was imminent, and as the chief officer, if he showed a hint of cowardice, it would greatly shake the morale of the army.
And at this time, Chang Weifeng's adjutant ran up, his name was He Liqing, a thirty-year-old middle-aged man, with a heart like fine hair.
Before He Liqing could get closer, Chang Weifeng began to ask.
"How's it going?"
"Good news, all the information has been sent, according to the feedback from the nearby cities, the messengers we sent to Tianyong City and Tongyang Pass have set off, that is to say, they have not been stopped by this group of zombies, if calculated according to the distance, three days later, General Xu of Tongyang Pass will be given a police training, and fifteen days later, Tianyong City will get the news here. ”
After getting this news, Chang Weifeng had a smile on his face.
Tongyang Pass was the largest fortress in the north, with 250,000 troops stationed in it to defend against threats from the Northern Empire. Unlike the county guards, their soldiers are battle-hardened and have great fighting capabilities.
If you calculate the distance, after seven days, the reinforcements from Tongyang Pass will be able to arrive.
Thinking of this, Chang Weifeng shouted at the soldiers guarding him: "Brothers, have you heard it, our rescue letter will arrive at Tongyang Pass in three days, at that time, General Xu will definitely send troops to increase the number of troops, seven days, we only need to hold it for seven days." ”
Hearing this exciting news, the battle intent in the eyes of the soldiers who were still in fear suddenly became stronger.
At this time, Adjutant He Liqing wasted no time in smiling and said, "There is another good news. The people of Xiyang City have taken the initiative to set up a reserve team, and I just looked at the number of people, and there are more than 10,000. ”
And upon hearing this news, the morale of the soldiers who were guarding was even stronger.
Of course, what they didn't know was that Chang Weifeng had a purpose in saying these words, the purpose was to let the guards guarding the city know that victory was just around the corner.
When he walked down the tower, Chang Weifeng's face became a little worried, he turned his head and asked He Liqing, "How is the situation of the investigation?"
He Liqing replied: "According to the letter from the scout in front, the total number of zombies exceeds 20,000, which is divided into four directions, and the east, west, north and south are combined into our Xiyang City. According to the calculation of the distance, there are still four hours to reach the city of Xiyang. ”
"So fast. Chang Weifeng said: "By the way, what did those Taoist priests in the city say. ”
Chang Weifeng also served as a soldier in Tongyang Pass when he was young, and fought with cavalry from the northern Xinjiang, so he can be regarded as a soldier who has experienced a hundred battles. It was only in middle age that he withdrew from the fortress and became the captain of the guard here due to physical and energetic reasons.
The great war was imminent, and he understood that it was more important to know the enemy than to know that it was imminent.
But now, in the face of dense zombies, they don't even know where the zombies' weaknesses are.
He must now figure this out as soon as possible, so that he can quickly adjust the battle plan in the next few days.
And those Taoist priests are said to have had the experience of facing zombies.
He Liqing lowered her head, her face a little ugly.
"Captain, you punish me, we are optimistic about a few of them, they sneaked away. ”
"What?" Chang Weifeng was taken aback: "How can you let them run." ”
However, Chang Weifeng soon realized that the big war was imminent, and he must not show a trace of uneasiness. He quickly regained his composure, and then whispered to He Liqing: "You listen to me, this news must not be spread to me, otherwise it will be dealt with by disturbing the morale of the army and beheaded." ”
"Captain, I promise it won't get out. ”
"By the way, not only can not disclose the news of the zombies running away from the outside world, but also want to release the wind, let's just say that a few people are preparing this formation, and they will give the zombies a fatal blow at a critical moment. ”
After saying this, Chang Weifeng didn't look at He Liqing's face.
He believes that as a soldier, He Liqing knows the importance of hope to the army at this critical moment.
Without hope, victory is impossible for an army.
In the streets, impassioned people walked by, with kitchen knives, pig-killing knives, and wooden sticks in their hands, and were obeying the command of the guards.
Seeing all this, Chang Weifeng understood that guarding Xiyang City would be the most important thing in his life.
