When Xie An received Zheng Yan, he learned that the war situation in the north had changed, and at the same time, a strong sense of uneasiness surged in his heart.

An army of millions of undead suddenly appeared in the hurricane pass, what is the situation of the majesty in the direction of the Black Pupil Emperor's capital now?

"Lord Xie, the strength of those skeletons is extremely strong, and ...... And ......" Zheng Yan looked hesitant when he said this, not knowing whether to say it or not.

"And what, don't spit out!" Xie An reprimanded with an unhappy face.

"And the weapons they hold in their hands are the standard weapons of our empire's main army! Not some, but all of them are our empire's weapons!" Under Xie An's pressure, Zheng Yan said the truth he didn't want to say in his heart with a disillusioned face.

Sure enough, as soon as these words came out, Xie An's face changed greatly.

What does it mean that there are millions of undead legions, all armed with the standard weapons of the main legion of the Empire?

This means that at least a million Imperial armies have perished at the hands of the army of the undead.

In addition, with the casualties of the five or six hundred thousand troops in the hands of Zheng Yan in front of him, the imperial army of the Northern Expedition has gone to eight + nine out of ten!

Xie An felt that his head was a little dizzy, and his eyes were a little dark.

"Your Majesty is in danger!" muttered out such a sentence, Zheng Yan, a diehard loyalist of His Majesty, did not refute it silently, but lowered his head and was silent.

In fact, he had vaguely guessed this question on the way to escape, but he had been deliberately not paying attention to the weapons in the hands of the millions of undead, he had been anesthetizing himself, and he had not thought about the idea that made people collapse.

If the god-like Fengdu Emperor is going to sink into the sand this time!?

"Withdraw! Withdraw to Fengdu City!" This was the order issued by Xie An after he calmed down.

Zheng Yan was defeated and lost, losing hundreds of thousands of troops, and Emperor Song had no ability to defend in the face of the undead army, thinking with his toes, he could guess that he was helpless. And these are not the fundamental reasons why Xie An chose to retreat, the reason why he wanted to retreat was all because he had guessed the possibility of the fall of Emperor Fengdu.

"Withdraw?" Zheng Yan raised his head suddenly, he didn't understand at first, and he was a little dazed. But immediately, he guessed the reason for the withdrawal from Xie An's expression, so he roared angrily: "Lord Xie, the whole army of the Holy Knights is here, and they are not afraid of those undead at all, why do you want to withdraw!?"

"What if you don't withdraw? No matter how strong the Holy Knights are, they can't fight millions of undead in the wild. Xie An didn't have the slightest respect for this kind of defeated general, in his opinion, being raided by millions of undead could only blame Zheng Yan for being too careless. If you had maintained a minimum of vigilance during the march, you would not have landed in this step.

"His Majesty is still in the Black Pupil Empire, we should go to the rescue of His Majesty!" In the end, Zheng Yan still didn't want to believe in the possibility of Zheng Fengdu's fall.

Xie An shook his head and said, "His Majesty is a divine knight, if he insists on evacuating, no one will be able to stop His Majesty." The army was defeated, and it was difficult for His Majesty to turn the situation around, so I think his old man should have already turned in and was on his way back to Fengdu City. Instead of fighting to the death with the undead without any advantage here, we might as well retreat to Fengdu City and wait for His Majesty to return!"

"However, the undead legion is going all the way south, we have to stop it!" Zheng Yan still didn't want to give up, the reason why he ran away at the beginning was because he had no soldiers in his hands. But now that he has the powerful Paladin, he thinks that he can fight hard with the undead legion, and at least it can effectively curb the pace of the undead legion going south.

Xie An turned his head and stared at him for a moment, the latter with a stubborn look and no compromise.

"Zhao Zi'an, you take your headquarters with General Zheng, you don't have to withdraw to Fengdu City. ”

"This ......" Zheng Yan looked annoyed, isn't it obvious that he wants to die by himself! There is only a team of people, but there are only five hundred, even if there is a paladin to lead the team, it is difficult to stop the undead army!

"It's not for you to stop the enemy, but for you to wait for the opportunity to gather news on the battlefield of the Black Pupil. My Holy Knights are only 50,000 people, and it is impossible for them to defeat a million undead in a field battle, and they may even be wiped out. If even the Holy Knights are destroyed, it will be difficult for Fengdu City to hold on. Therefore, the Holy Knights must withdraw to Fengdu City. However, the safety of His Majesty is also very important, and we cannot sit in Fengdu City. Therefore, your main task is to find a way to search for information on the battlefield in the north. It seemed that he was infected by Zheng Yan's attitude, and Xie An actually explained a few words.

After speaking, he didn't care about Zhao Zi'an, who had a bitter face, and turned to Fengdu City with a large group of people.

Of course, the arrangement of Zhao Zi'an was deliberate, the dignified paladin, with five hundred headquarters, actually let the three little squirts run away, not to mention, and lost hundreds of people, which simply lost the face of the Holy Knights.

He may be too merciful, making these subordinates more and more incompetent, Ci is not in charge of the army, such a chaotic situation, it is time to kill the chickens and make an example. Zhao Zi'an, well, let's be this chicken+!

The Holy Knights are worthy of being the most powerful legion in the Fengdu Empire, a team of 50,000 people, and when they say that they will turn, they will turn, but it is just a stick of incense, and the team will be completely withdrawn, leaving dozens of Zheng Yan's men and Zhao Zi'an's five hundred men and horses staring at each other.

"General Zheng, how do you behave?" Zhao Zi'an asked coldly as he resisted his restless anger.

He, Zhao Zi'an, is a paladin, and he can be qualified as a legion leader in an ordinary legion. Therefore, in the face of Zheng Yan, the great knight commander and legion commander promoted by the emperor, it was normal for him to put on such a posture.

Zheng Yan didn't have much to say, because of himself, he was a little embarrassed that people ended up like this for no reason.

"Hmph, go!" Seeing Zheng Yan's wilting look, Zhao Zi'an was angry and didn't fight anywhere, snorted viciously, beckoned to the knight brigade of the headquarters, and headed north.

"Alas, keep up!" Zheng Yan sighed helplessly, and hurriedly followed with dozens of dejected subordinates.

They are small in number, and their mission is to find out the news, so they don't have to fight to the death with the army of undead who may go south, so they choose a small road to march.

......

The days of Fengdu City have not been easy these days, and it can be called three shocks a day.

Originally, because the Holy Knights went out of Beijing to quell the rebellion, those Holy Lord cults had shrunk and no longer attacked the towns in the direct jurisdiction.

But as the Paladins turned north, these traitors suddenly trembled.

The towns under the jurisdiction of the municipality have fallen one after another, and the enemy's troops have even appeared on the outskirts of Fengdu.

Zhuge Qingnan was also restless in the cabinet, he really didn't expect that the Fengdu Garrison Corps would be so unhelpful, and the divisions and regiments that were scattered out were still high-spirited at first, but as soon as they met the enemy, they were beaten to cry and cry for their mother, and it was not enough to describe their incompetence with a touch of collapse.

"Ahem, how to deal with the current situation, let's talk about it, ahem......" Since seeing the fate card of Emperor Fengdu broken, his body has become more and more poor. After all, in the face of such a dangerous situation, the body simply can't bear it.

The prime minister spoke, but the following group of ministers who stayed behind were watching their noses and noses, and no one was willing to speak, for fear that if one said something wrong, His Majesty would return to Beijing in the coming day to investigate the responsibility. After all, the capital was attacked, and the sin was too great.

"Ahem, why don't you speak, do you have to wait until those rebels enter Fengdu City, and everyone sits and waits for death? Knock knock!" The crutches in Zhuge Qingnan's hand paused heavily on the ground, and now he can't walk at all without holding on to the crutches.

"Your Excellency, the Holy Knights are back to the city! Lord Xie An is on his way over!" Just as the atmosphere in the room was depressed, a sudden sound of a report sounded outside.

Whew, the atmosphere in the room suddenly relaxed, everyone's solemn expressions dissipated at that time, and the voices of many people relieved could be heard clearly in the quiet room.

"My lord, since the Holy Knights have returned to Beijing, then Fengdu City must be safe and sound!"

However, this announcement made Zhuge Qingnan's heart tighten.

The Holy Knights returned to Beijing at this time, why?

Xie An received an order to go north to defend against the sudden appearance of the undead army and rescue Emperor Song. When he returned to Beijing at this time, could it be that the situation in the north had been eroded, or did he know some bad news, such as ......

Without waiting for him to dwell on it for long, Xie An strode into the cabinet chamber with a frosty face and pushed the waiter guarding the door to the ground.

"Zhuge light man, I'm going to see His Majesty's life card!"

After he entered the door, he stared at Zhuge Qingnan and blurted out a sentence, which shocked the ministers in the house.

What does Xie An mean by this? Could it be that something happened to His Majesty?

It was really too lethal with this sentence, and the faces of the ministers had fully reflected the panic in their hearts at this time.

Alas, Zhuge Qingnan knows that in addition to being powerful in force, this Xie An is a bit self-righteous and clever, and his real overall situation and strategic wisdom are very lacking.

"Head Xie, do you know what you are talking about! Be bold, ahem, after your majesty returns to Beijing, I will definitely let you know the consequences!" Zhuge Qingnan couldn't tolerate the situation to continue to develop, and suddenly stood up on crutches, pointing at Xie An and shouting angrily.

It's a pity that his appearance at this time is too weak, and his words are also weak, and he has not played the desired effect at all. On the contrary, seeing his appearance, Xie An was even more confident in his guess.

"Is Your Majesty's life card already broken! Hmph, Zhuge Qingnan, it is in vain that Fei believes in you so much, you said that you want to go north and lead the army north without saying a word. But you are hiding such heavy news, do you have any wolf ambitions!" Xie An's words were heart-wrenching, and Zhuge Qingnan's face turned blue and white for a while, and his blood was rolling.

"You...... You...... , poof......" stretched out his hand and pointed at Xie An again and again, looking at Xie An's angry face, as if he had seen through a ridiculous gesture like a big conspiracy, Zhuge Qingnan's face suddenly surged abnormal flush, a mouthful of blood spurted out, and his eyes passed out as soon as his eyes were black.
