Chapter 300, Qingyuan Desperate Situation

In this world, everyone and everything from small to clans and city-states to large to a country, mountains, rivers, lakes and seas have different rules.

Different understandings of rules, as well as the impact of self-interest, make the irreconcilable contradiction between rules and rules.

Just like a person, living is the most important thing in his rules, and then it is better to live.

But if it is magnified to a clan or even a country, a person's life is not important.

It seems that the big collective oppresses the small group, and uses the big rules to destroy the small rules, but in fact, this is also one of the rules in heaven and earth.

Some people call these the laws of the jungle.

Therefore, if you want to better integrate into a new rule system, you must either give up your own rule cognition and learn and follow the other party's rules, or you have the strength to break the other party's rules and let the other party learn and follow your own rules.

Other than that, there is no third way.

Confucianism's preaching of the world is actually just a way to break the other party's rules and cognition.

Li Chengjing is a Xuan cultivator and has a power that is incomparable to mortals, but this kind of power is extremely small under the big rule system of the imperial dynasty and even the human world.

Therefore, without making the other party succumb to his own rules, Li Chengjing wants to integrate into the other party, so he can only temporarily give up his rule cognition.

Whether it was to recruit officials in Yizi City, or to lead these Qing soldiers to run around in the territory of Yan Kingdom and plant a stalemate, it was all something he did that temporarily succumbed to the rules of the other party.

Since ancient times, the best way for an ordinary person to change his life is not to study, but to join the army, especially in troubled times.

Compared with the road of Wenchen, which was monopolized by the scholar group, although the road to the army was also bumpy and there was little hope, at least there was hope.

In addition to wanting to use this incredible military exploit as a stepping stone to enter the court, Li Chengjing also told the Daqing court through this incident that the high city wall is of no use to him.

For an emperor who wants to dominate the world and is almost stunned, even if he knows that this is a deadly poison, he will not hesitate to swallow it.

"Master Zhaoguan, Qingyuan City is ahead." Looking at the magnificent city standing in the snowfield in the wind and snow, Guan Zhong's voice trembled a little.

Li Chengjing nodded, glanced at the zombie army behind him with almost no end in sight, and said with a smile: "Everyone, the marquis is right in front of you!" ”

Guan Meng shook his spear excitedly and asked, "Master Zhaoguan, this time it's Qingyuan City, why don't you let me attack the city once?" ”

"Go ahead!" Li Chengjing said lightly.

Guan Meng was overjoyed.

But the next sentence made Guan Meng dumbfounded, Li Chengjing quipped: "We don't have a ladder, if you can fly up the city wall, this official will definitely say to the court, this battle, you General Guan is the first merit!" ”

Guan Meng suddenly smiled.

His kung fu is good, but it's just good.

Qingyuan City is not one of those small county towns in Yan Country that is only one or two zhang high, it is an unbroken city with a city height of about four zhang.

There are no ladders and other siege equipment, if you want to go up, no one will stop you, and it will be difficult for the top masters in the martial arts to go up.

Not to mention that he is fierce.

"The recruiter is joking, I'm just joking!"

At the head of Qingyuan City, even in the wind and snow, it is also three steps, one post, five steps and one sentry, and there are soldiers wearing robes patrolling back and forth.

It's not that Qingyuan City's daily defense is so tight, Qingyuan City has lost contact with the imperial court for a month or two, and the scouts sent back said that the nearby cities are in a stalemate, and they didn't even have time to get close to the nearest county town, so they were chased and killed by a large number of zombies. 33

And spilled out more than a dozen teams of scouts, and as a result, there was not one out of ten who could come back alive.

This is not due to the careful realm of Qingyuan City.

However, the people of Qingyuan City are not worried, in addition to the high walls of Qingyuan City, the grain and grass in the city are also enough for them to use for a year.

Even if you do make a zombie, don't be too afraid.

And just in case, the city has already prepared weapons for war.

Li Chengjing looked from afar, and he could see that the soldiers on the head of the city were like burning clouds in this snowy weather, enveloping the entire city.

"I'm really well prepared!"

"It seems that the other party already knows about the zombies in Yan Country and is ready to do so. What should we do? ”

Guan Yong asked with a frown.

Li Chengjing said with a smile: "These zombies are originally Yan people, and we don't have to feel sorry for using Yan people to fight Yan people." It is naturally best to be able to break through Qingyuan City, if you can't break it, there is nothing to do, this time our credit is enough, if we can win Qingyuan City, it is just the icing on the cake. ”

Hearing Li Chengjing say this, everyone immediately reacted.

Their credit this time is already big enough, and whether they can take Qingyuan City or not is not that important.

"Tell the brothers below that if we can break through Qingyuan City, we will kill it and behead the head of the lord of this city, if it can't be broken, we will take a detour and go back to Daqing directly."

"Yes, Master Zhaoguan!"

The wind and snow in the sky had already covered the zombies with a thick layer of snow, and when they arrived at the city, the guards of Qingyuan City did not even notice it.

It wasn't until the zombies began to hit the city gate, jumping wildly against the city wall, shaking off the snow on their bodies, that the people at the head of the city realized that the zombies had reached the city.

"Knock knock!" The sound of drums quickly remembered that the city was full of footsteps and the sound of armor clashing.

"Enemy attack, enemy attack!"

"Shoot the arrows, release the arrows!"

"Whoosh!" And a rain of arrows poured down from the city.

Don't aim at all, there are too many zombies below, the arrow hit the zombie's body, bounced off in an instant, and the guard at the head of the city looked down carefully in shock, and suddenly exclaimed: "It's a zombie, hurry, change troops and arrows!" ”

After a brief pause in the attack, another rain of arrows fell.

Only this time, the arrow pierced the zombie's body without hindrance.

The copper skin and iron bones of zombies are not much different from paper in the face of soldiers and arrows.

As the soldiers exploded in the zombie's body, the yin and death qi in the zombie's body also quickly escaped, forming black smoke that was invisible to the naked eye.

The soldiers at the head of the city were shocked when they saw that the weapons were really effective.

When Guan Zhong and the others saw this scene, they immediately became anxious.

"Master Zhaoguan!"

Li Chengjing waved his hand and said: "Qingyuan City is the most important city on the border of Yan Kingdom, and it is normal to have a large number of military weapons, they have many military weapons, but we have more zombies. ”

Li Chengjing's words made Guan Zhong and the three of them quiet.

Sure enough, as Li Chengjing expected, the weapon is indeed powerful against zombies, even if it is just scratched by the weapon, those zombies will be broken because of the soldier's body, and become a pile of rotten meat.

But there were too many zombies, and soon the city was covered with corpses that were two feet high.

And the zombie army still has no end in sight.

"The general is not good, the city gate is about to be broken!"

The defender of the city, Qian Lingyuan, the general of Yanguo Zhenxi, looked at everything in front of him in disbelief.

And the words of the soldier behind him made Qian Lingyuan's scalp tingle.

He grabbed the soldier and asked, "What's wrong with the city gate, these zombies are just a bunch of walking dead, how can they endanger the city gate." ”

The soldier was not afraid, and said with a mournful voice: "Those zombies rely on their physical toughness, although they can't break the city gate, but they use their claws and teeth to forcibly destroy the city gate. The city gate has been bitten through several large holes by them. The brothers in the city are resisting with spears, but they won't be able to resist for long! ”

Qian Lingyuan couldn't sit still any longer, and hurriedly ran down the city wall and came to the city gate.

I saw soldiers with weapons of war, frantically slashing at several zombies on the city gate.

And on the thick gate, there were already holes the size of seven or eight human heads.

One by one, the zombies either squeezed their heads into it, frantically biting the gap in the city gate with their mouths, or scratched with their claws.

The soldiers in the corridor can only stab with spears or sharp swords.

It's as if you can't kill any of these zombies, hack one to death, and immediately new zombies will fill in.

The big mouth that had become bloody and blurred because of the bite made the soldiers in the corridor mentally depressed to the point of almost collapse.

When Qian Lingyuan arrived, he saw several soldiers shouting and trying to escape, but they were all shot directly by the overseers behind.

Qian Lingyuan gasped.

He has been in the army for more than ten years, and he has never fought this kind of battle with the dead.

Even he felt at a loss at this time.

Qian Lingyuan knew that it would definitely not work if it went on like this, no matter how brave his soldiers were, but in the face of a group of zombies, sooner or later they would all have a nervous breakdown.

So Qian Lingyuan immediately shouted: "Quick, bring the boulders, block the city gate, and don't let the zombies enter the city." ”

But as soon as the words fell, there were bursts of screams from the city.

Qian Lingyuan looked up and saw a soldier hanging down from above, smashing not far from him.

Qian Lingyuan, who didn't have time to think about it, hurriedly climbed up to the top of the city again, and immediately squatted down.

It turned out that fist-sized stones were shooting from below.

Qian Lingyuan finally knew what was going on.

"Damn, these zombies even know how to throw stones!"

"Pour fire oil and burn it for this official!"

As the order was passed down, barrels of fire oil were poured down, and then ignited by the ensuing fire bolts, and a huge fire rose into the sky.

Soon, the burnt smell of the meat spreads.

"Retreat, zombies retreat!"

A soldier shouted excitedly.

Qian Lingyuan came to the wall battlement and looked down.

Countless corpses lay on the ground below, layer upon layer, and the fire engulfed them.

And not far away, zombies stood in the distance of the fire with blank eyes, just standing quietly.

There is also a steady stream of zombies coming from behind.

They were like well-trained soldiers, not crowded and shoved, all standing quietly, as if ready to wait for the fire to be extinguished before attacking again.

Qian Lingyuan's heart instantly cooled.

Qian Lingyuan immediately shouted: "Quick, send someone to bring me all the fire oil and things that can be burned in the city, and the fire must not be extinguished." ”

Qian Lingyuan knew that this was just drinking to quench his thirst, but he had no other way.

Some people died, but not completely......
