Zhu Zizhen led his wild boar demon soldiers at a fast pace, and finally arrived at the border of Chuzhou four days later. However, the sight in front of him made his heart, which was accustomed to blood and killing, feel terrified.
Deqing County, the once prosperous border town of the Puppet Zhou Dynasty, has now completely turned into a dead city.
The air here is filled with the smell of decay, and there are thousands of poisonous corpses wandering outside the city.
These poisonous corpses seem to have no intelligence at all. They move slowly, but are extremely sensitive to the breath of any living creature.
"Damn it!" Zhu Zizhen stood on the hillside, looking at the tragic situation ahead, and spat on the ground.
"This is not a war, this is clearly a massacre!"
The deputy general next to him, a slightly smaller wild boar demon, also had a solemn expression.
"Your Majesty, it seems that there are no living people in the entire Deqing County. If we go in, we will probably be overwhelmed by the endless tide of corpses."
Zhu Zizhen snorted coldly, " Are these pieces of rotten meat worthy of being compared with my old pig brothers? We can kill them in a minute!”
Although he said this, he knew in his heart that this mission was much more difficult than he thought.
There are too many poisonous corpse soldiers, and his pig demon soldiers only have more than 20,000 left. Even if they are not infected, they are all mobile fast food.
Therefore, Zhu Zizhen took a deep breath and said, "Second the order, the entire army will be deployed in the south of Chuzhou, with the Fu'an official road south of Deqing County as the boundary. Don't let a fly pass!"
"Your Majesty, shouldn't we go in and eliminate them?"
The lieutenant general asked in confusion.
"Okay, you can take people there, as long as you are not dead, my position is yours."
Zhu Zizhen said, while glaring at him.
"Our task is to stop them and prevent them from going south, not to give them extra food."
"Tell the brothers to seal the road for me, and then set fire to it and burn it for seven days and seven nights. I don't believe there will be rotten meat in the city by then!"
"Yes!" The deputy general took the order and hurried to convey the order.
After seeing off the lieutenant, Zhu Zizhen’s face instantly became solemn.
He knew very well that the destruction of Deqing County was just the beginning. There was nothing in the south of Deqing County now, just because Yuan Lie's poisonous corpse soldiers had not gone south yet.
He had to get rid of these mindless puppets as soon as possible, otherwise he would face Yuan Lie's poisonous zombie soldiers who obeyed his orders...
Even if he was not very smart, he could still imagine the scene of complete defeat.
I get cold sweats just thinking about it.
"General Ye, General Ye, you really found a good job for me, old pig."
He muttered, took out a special sound transmitting instrument from his arms, and reported the situation here exactly to Ye Cheng, who was far away in Wancheng.
"...The situation is like this. Deqing County is already finished, but the poisonous zombie soldiers have not gone south. Now I, the old pig, have not seen Yuan Lie's army, so I decided to burn Deqing County first to prevent these things from running around."
"You must mobilize reinforcements as soon as possible, otherwise I will not be able to figure out what happened here."
After doing this, he felt a little more at ease.
He turned around, looked at his demon soldiers who were already busy, and shouted loudly.
"Hurry up and work! If the defense line is not ready before dark, don't even have dinner!"
Just when Zhu Zizhen's troops were building a defense line on the outskirts of Deqing County, they were preparing to burn the city with fire.
A group of monks wearing monk robes and carrying long swords came with swords and landed in front of their camp.
The leader was a woman with a cold face. She looked at the group of evil boar demons in front of her and frowned slightly, but she still took a step forward and held her hand politely.
"Lingyin from Shushan Mountain, under the orders of His Majesty and Duke An, came to assist King Zhu in resisting the poisonous corpse."
Zhu Zizhen looked her over, grinned, and showed his huge fangs.
"People from Shushan? You're just in time! I'm worried about the lack of manpower! You're just in time, go and block the opening to the south!"
Ling Yin's frown deepened.
She didn’t expect that this wild boar king would be so rude and rude. But she also knew that now was not the time to worry about this.
"King Zhu, we have just arrived and don't know much about the situation yet. Could you please tell us in detail the situation on the front line?"
"The situation of the war?"
Zhu Zizhen snorted and pointed to Deqing County in the distance, "What else is the situation of the war? Don't you know how to see it yourself? Our Deqing County to the north is hopeless.
< br/> There are hundreds of thousands of poisonous corpses inside. My plan is to burn them all with a fire and kill them all. 」
"You want to burn the city down?!"
Ling Yin's voice changed slightly due to shock, "In the city...is there not a single living person left in the city?"
"Xiangu, are you awake? Smell the smell in the air for yourself, are you still alive? If you hadn't been poisoned by corpse poison, you would have been eaten up by the rotten meat!"
Ling Yin's face became very ugly.
She was silent for a moment, and then said to a disciple behind her, "Qingfeng, take a few junior disciples and use the "Qi Watching Technique" to explore the situation in the city."
"Yes, Master!"
After a moment, the faces of several people turned pale.
"Reporting to Uncle Master... In the city, the air of death and resentment is overwhelming. There is indeed no breath of life."
After receiving this answer, Ling Yin's body shook slightly.
Although she had expected it, she still felt a pang in her heart when she heard the result with her own ears.
Hundreds of thousands of lives were lost.
Yuan Lie... His crime deserves death!
"King Zhu, I already understand the situation."
Lingyin took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down.
"But the strategy of burning the city is too cruel and harms the peace of the world.
But at the moment, there seems to be no other way.
However, before that, Pindao must report the matter to An Guogong immediately. "
She knew very well that Yuan Lie's actions this time were definitely not as simple as the so-called fallout from the empress of the Puppet Zhou Dynasty.
There is a bigger conspiracy hidden behind this. She had to let Ye Cheng know that the seriousness of the situation had far exceeded their expectations.
"Whatever you want." Zhu Zizhen waved his hand impatiently.
"If you want to report it, just report it, don't delay my work. I can tell you, this fire must be lit tonight. Otherwise, God knows whether these things will rush out at night."
Lingyin stopped arguing with him, she took out a paper crane from her arms, bit her fingertips, and drew a rune on it with blood.
