The end of the world begins with the king

Chapter 334 Trapped
On the fifth day of February, a large ship sailed to Yuan County.

The boat is full of grain and is slowly approaching the pier. This is grain transported from Yuanyang.

At the bow of the boat, a man wearing the official uniform of the General Banner stood upright. This man was none other than Huang Tianyan from Guishunyong Palace.

Although he was born as a bandit, Huang Tianyan was indeed capable, and he dedicated Wujiabao to the palace, so it was logical that he was raised to the general banner.

It was not the first time that he led a team to escort food today, but what he escorted today was military food.

Compared with the daily necessities of ordinary people, military rations are undoubtedly richer, such as bacon and the like.

When the big ship docked, Huang Tianyan ordered people to light a beacon. It stands to reason that after the garrison in the city found out, they should go out of the city to unload the grain.

Huang Tianyan was not too anxious, but ordered his men to start unloading.

As long as they unload the goods and deliver them, they can return to Yuanyang.

But after half an hour had passed since they unloaded most of the supplies, Huang Tianyan finally noticed something was wrong.

The wharf is nearly three miles away from the county seat. Although the city can be seen here, the situation on the city wall cannot be seen clearly.

Did something happen in Yuan County?Huang Tianyan's heart hung up.

"Come two people, follow me to the county seat!" Huang Tianyan said in a deep voice.

With a few soldiers, Huang Tianyan quickly approached Yuan County, and they were on high alert at the moment.

What surprised him was that he didn't see a single zombie on the way to the county seat, which meant that Yuan County was safe.

What's more, when he was only one mile away, he had already seen soldiers on the city wall.

"Damn it, what a trick!" Huang Tianyan scolded.

I sailed here overnight just to send the supplies to Yuan County earlier. Do the people in the Yuan County Garrison still have to send the things into their warehouse by themselves?

Dissatisfied in his heart, Huang Tianyan quickly walked towards the city gate.

"Damn it, didn't you see the beacon fire at the pier?" Huang Tianyan cursed.

On the city wall, a general flag poked his head out and replied with a smile: "Brother, we saw it, but we can't get it out!"

"Why can't you come out?" Huang Tianyan asked back.

"Now in this city, there are only dozens of people in the garrison. The others have left. If we leave again... there will be no one guarding the city!"

Finally, there was a reasonable explanation, so Huang Tianyan said, "Where did your people go?"

"Master Gao led the team and went out to clean up the monsters!"

Well, people not only have a reasonable explanation, but also a very legitimate reason.

According to the rules set by the palace, the number of troops stationed in a county at any time must not be less than 50, which is an iron rule.

Huang Tianyan's face was ugly, and he said helplessly: "Okay...you should enjoy the blessings, and we have to unload the goods for you!"

Huang Tianyan can't wait for him to go out to fight, he has to go back to work!
Immediately, Huang Tianyan said to the soldiers on the side: "Let our people work harder and bring things over for them!"

After saying this, Huang Tianyan looked up to the tower and said: "You can't leave your post, we admit it... But you should be able to find us some carts, and you can't let us carry the burden on your shoulders!"

"It's simple, I'll arrange it right away!" The general banner on the tower replied.

Ten minutes later, the city gate was opened, and seven carts were pushed out from inside.

The general flag on the tower was a little embarrassed and said: "This brother, I will trouble you next!"

Huang Tianyan didn't say much, and directly waved to the subordinates beside him, asking them to push the cart away.

Huang Tianyan's subordinates started to work. This time, the food they brought in would need to be loaded into [-] carts, and it would take at least two hours to transport them to the county seat.

Just as Huang Tianyan was thinking that he was going to supervise the work, he suddenly remembered an important thing.

According to the provisions of the military law, after the delivered materials are delivered, they must be signed by the chief officer of the garrison.

This requirement is extremely strict, in order to prevent someone from misappropriating materials, and whoever signs it will be responsible.

Now that Gao Zheng'an left, Yuan County would have no one to sign, which made Huang Tianyan stumped.

"You Gaoqianhu, where did you take your people?" Huang Tianyan asked on the tower.

"Go to the garrison station in the south!"

"how far?"

"If you ride a horse, it will take more than half an hour!"

After hearing that it would only take half an hour, Huang Tianyan immediately had an idea, so it would be better if he just ran there.

"Brother, find two horses for me, and find another brother to lead the way. I will go to Master Gao to sign!"

"Okay!" The general flag on the tower readily agreed.

Everything he asked for was quickly arranged, Huang Tianyan didn't waste any time, and headed straight to the south under the leadership of the guide.

On the other side, at Yang Qing's residence, an extremely embarrassing situation happened at this moment.

When the sun went down yesterday, Gao Zheng'an led the team to arrive here.

Because it was getting dark, Gao Zhengan didn't arrange a task, but planned to let his subordinates fix it first.

In fact, they didn't do nothing, at least after dinner, they helped Yang Qing complete the reinforcement of the fortifications.

A trench two meters wide and three meters deep was completed.

It was already night when the work was completed, and the whole group was exhausted, so Gao Zheng'an directly asked his subordinates to rest.

Three military vehicles were only enough for thirty or so of Yang Qing's men to rest, and most of them had to lie on the ground outside.

It's only early spring now, and the nights are still very cold, sleeping outside is tantamount to suffering.

Fortunately, before they set off, they had already foreseen the overnight stay, so they all brought bedding, and they could barely sleep on the woodpile.

At this moment, the soldiers can only pray that it will not rain tonight, otherwise the night will be impossible.

Of course, all of this has nothing to do with Gao Zhengan, because he has a bed in the military vehicle.

Fortunately, this night, nothing happened except that the night wind was cold and made people suffer.

But before dawn, something happened.

The soldiers on the sentry post heard the roar of the zombies.

It's not uncommon to have a roar, but when the sound gets closer and more zombies make the sound, things don't last for a second.

The sentry soldiers immediately gave the alarm, waking everyone up from their slumber.

After lighting more torches and seeing the scene clearly, Gao Zheng'an and Yang Qing realized that they and the others were surrounded by corpses.

At this moment, more than 100 of them are trapped in a small area where the military vehicle is.

Fighting outside, there are more than 100 of them, and they can't use it at this place.

The outer trenches, while protecting them, also locked them inside.

So they can only use various methods to attract the zombies to jump into the ditch, so as to achieve the purpose of annihilating them.

So they used various methods, but the effect is really not good.

Every time they come up with a method, they can only be fooled by one or two. With the lessons learned from the past, these zombies will not be fooled.

From dawn to now, they tried every conceivable method and killed seven zombies in total.
