The end of the world begins with the king

Chapter 676 War
On May [-]th, in the west of Hexi County, outside Ningtai Prefecture.

The central army of the Yong army has gathered here at this moment, with a total of more than 3 troops, led by Yong Wang Zhao Yanxun.

Now that the Yong army is divided into north, middle and south routes, Zhao Yanxun's location is not fixed, but he will bring people to support wherever there is difficulty.

In other words, right now Yongjun is in trouble in Ningtai Prefecture, and it's not a small trouble.

"My lord, it has been investigated clearly. There are at least tens of thousands of monsters inside, and now they are restrained by a few second-level monsters!"

Sitting on the horseback, listening to Zhang Meng's report, Zhao Yanxun frowned and said, "There are only second-level monsters?"

After a few breaths of silence, Zhang Meng replied: "" The ministers thought it was a second-level monster, maybe we were wrong! "

In fact, there is not much difference in appearance between second-level and third-level monsters, and they can only be judged by their actions.

"A second-level monster can't restrain tens of thousands of monsters. There must be a third-level monster inside!"

The third-level monster leads the second-level monster, and it is no problem to lead tens of thousands of zombies.

It is even possible that there are level [-] zombies in the city, which makes more sense.

The presence of high-level zombies means that there is likely to be a meteorite, and there is a meteorite with a large head. How can Zhao Yanxun, the source of such a disaster, let it go.

What's more, even if they cross the capital city, there is no guarantee that these zombies will not attack from behind, and they still have to go back and kill them, it is better to kill them directly now.

At this moment, a flying horse rushed over, and after getting off the horse, someone reported: "My lord, the east gate is also ready!"

Zhao Yanxun said in a deep voice: "Send the order, and each department will do it on its own!"

"Yes!"

There is no fixed plan for attacking a city occupied by zombies. Only by adapting to local conditions can it achieve better results. It is the worst policy to rush into the city.

Fighting all the way to Ningtai Mansion, they were about two hundred miles away from Zhenxiguan, during which they only captured one prefecture and two county towns.

In these cities, Zhao Yanxun did not station too many soldiers, but used them to resettle the people he saved along the way.

At this moment, following Zhao Yanxun's order, the soldiers at the four gates of the city have already begun to implement the plan of suppression.

Take the west gate where Zhao Yanxun is located, the soldiers guarding here placed many horses with wheels on the open space outside the city.

This new type of repelling horse has been equipped in a large amount in the Yong army, and they march and camp in places surrounded by zombies. This thing is very effective in preventing the impact of zombies.

At this moment, these refusal horses surrounded a huge area outside the city gate, and there were a small number of zombies wandering around inside.

Generally speaking, zombies will rush away when they hear the movement, but there are only a small number of zombies wandering around, which proves from the side that there are high-level zombies in the city.

Obviously, those high-level zombies hiding in the dark have realized the strength of the Yong army, so they chose to hide in the city.

In this case, sending troops into the city to clean up the city will increase the danger level. The best way is to lure the zombies out.

After receiving the military order, a dozen soldiers were seen carrying pork and throwing it directly into the open space.

These freshly slaughtered pork have a very strong bloody smell, which is very attractive to zombies.

When he went to the north to collect meteorites, Zhao Yanxun did an experiment with flesh and blood, which proved that under the strong attraction, the high-level zombies could not restrain the zombies below.

Sure enough, when a large amount of flesh and blood was thrown into the open space, a large number of soldiers guarding outside heard roars from inside the city gate.

The roar is getting louder and louder. Based on previous experience, it can be judged that there are high-level zombies who are "deterring" subordinates.

It's a pity that the effect was not good, and zombies still rushed out of the city gate.

The circle formed by rejecting horses outside the west gate is almost the size of a basketball court. Behind the rejecting horses are soldiers waiting in full force. More than 600 people can stand around the circle.

For every meter of distance, there were at least four spearmen standing, the two in front were responsible for killing, and the two behind were used as backups.

And behind these 600 people, there are another 600 people waiting to replace the people in front.

Further back, there are soldiers used to replace them, and there are soldiers who dispose of corpses at the outermost periphery.

Everyone has a clear division of labor, which deeply implements Zhao Yanxun's assembly line idea, which greatly improves the efficiency of killing zombies.

With such a deployment of troops, it happened that the two guards guarded the four city gates and started the machine for killing zombies.

On the further periphery, the cavalry of the first and second guards were responsible for killing the zombies outside the city and opening up a safe zone for the troops attacking the city inside.

Although the fight was lively ahead, Zhao Yanxun was calm and calm. This kind of situation is very common.

Even if there are high-level zombies, Hu Dabiao and Zhang Meng lead people to guard them, and they can basically guarantee safety.

At this moment, Zhao Yanxun was thinking about the next step to capture Hanbei City.

Hanbei is the prefecture of Hexi, and it is only a hundred miles away from Ningtai Prefecture. Zhao Yanxun intends to use this place as a supply point.

Far away from Zhenxiguan, the army's food is supplied by Longyou, the supply line is too long, so Zhao Yanxun has to use the system to exchange food.

Of course, the amount of grain exchanged by the system is limited, so he still has to transport grain from Longyou, but the amount can be reduced.

Whether it is transporting grain in Longyou or exchanging grain systematically, these huge grains need to be properly placed in a place, and Hanbei City in front is undoubtedly suitable.

According to the news from Su Chuyun, Hanbei City has been captured by the court, which means that attacking Hanbei City is tantamount to a formal confrontation with the court.

The latest news from the scouts is that there are not many troops stationed in Hanbei City, and the main force of the imperial court is clearing up zombies between the Han River and the Ji River.

The imperial court used the big and small rivers as the line to divide the land into several large areas, and the army used the area as a unit to carry out the campaign.

In this way, the effect of the cleanup can be guaranteed. Every cleared area can be rearranged for cultivation, and the restoration of productivity is equal to the restoration of combat effectiveness.

Of course, before taking over Hanbei, he had to pacify Ningtai Prefecture first.

Time passed quickly, and after half an hour passed, the soldiers began to rotate after killing the zombies.

Of course, at the same time as the rotation, the soldiers have to vacate the killed zombies, so that they can be killed efficiently later.

The horses were withdrawn, and the soldiers blocked the city gate and bound the zombies in the city.

At this time, someone suddenly reminded: "Be careful...there are high-level monsters on the city wall!"

Everyone looked up one after another, and sure enough, they saw three high-level zombies looking down on the city wall, but they didn't make any roar.

"Shoot him..." shouted an officer.

The bow-wielding soldiers didn't dare to neglect at all, and shot arrows at the city wall one after another, forcing the three zombies to retreat inside the city wall.

At this time, Qianhu scolded: "Hurry up and clean up...continue to clean up!"

"Obey!" The soldiers shouted back.

Although they have been fighting fiercely for more than a month, they don't feel tired, just because of Zhao Yanxun's morale bonus.

When the Yong army on the middle road was attacking the city, the army wandering on the north road at this moment was resting outside an empty village.

Relatively speaking, the North Route Army advanced faster, just because they bypassed the city, all the hard bones were thrown aside.

Today, they are only fifty miles away from the Han River.

"Today's steamed buns are hardened!"

Inside Zhuangzi, Zhou Lixing, commander of the No. 11 guard, was holding a steamed bun with a look of dissatisfaction.

Then a thousand households said: "My lord, be patient, as long as we pass the Han River, good days will come!"

I only heard Zhou Lixing say: "Hmph, if it wasn't for today's time for us to rest, what should I say... I have to push another ten miles!"

Although it is said that they are advancing in parallel, in order to ensure the safety of the march, the armies of all parties advance alternately.

For example, when the No. 11 guard advances to the front, it has to wait for the troops behind to push to the front before they can move on.

And this waiting process, by the way, let the army recuperate, so the tiredness is not so tiring.
