"Yunxuan!"

Emperor Shun Yao and others rushed over on horseback and asked, "What happened? Did the plan of delay fail?"

"Ye Yunchen didn't escape, it was commanding the army of corpses..."

Zhao Guanren wiped off the sweat from his brow, and said: "The size of the corpses has exceeded one million, but the dead have only 12 soldiers. They have been completely surrounded by corpses. At most, it will take half a day for us. This is already the best." It's done!"

"My lord!"

Shen Qingwen rode over and said: "With the foot strength of the common people, it will take at least seven or eight days to reach the riverside, and you have to cross the river by boat when you reach the riverside, but corpses can sleep without rest, and the difference between the enemy and us is only half a day. will be caught up!"

"No! They will attack the city along the way, and the distance will become larger and larger..."

Zhao Guanren said: "Today and tomorrow are the key to escape. We will be safe temporarily after crossing the Sui River, but we need to build two chain bridges as soon as possible at the narrowest part of the Tongtian River. The corpse man is after him!"

Zhao Guanren issued a series of orders. Everyone had long been accustomed to relying on him as the backbone, and no one questioned his orders. All the people from all walks of life quickly deployed. The exhausted Zhao Guanren finally got into the carriage, fell headlong on the soft sleeper and whimpered. big sleep.

……

The mighty team is getting bigger and bigger, people keep falling behind, and people keep joining. After walking for a full four days, the whole team is exhausted, but everyone can only grit their teeth and keep going. Can have a good rest.

"master!"

Qiu Ning suddenly lifted the curtain of the car, and said anxiously: "It's not good, there is a wave of corpses coming around from the west, and they are going to surround us!"

"What? Outflanking..."

Zhao Guanren got out of the carriage in shock, and the long queue was marching forward holding torches, but after hearing the news of being outflanked, they all stopped one after another.

"My lord! There must be a ghost..."

A general got off his horse in a hurry, and said anxiously: "The scouts just reported that a large group of corpses came from the southwest direction, and they are coming obliquely towards us. They can arrive in two hours at most. If there is no careful work, the corpses How can a person be so precise?"

"Impossible! Corpse people will never have subtle operations, their brains are not so complicated..."

Zhao Guanren looked around suspiciously, but the other party said: "The scouts can't estimate the number of corpses, but it must be no less than 20, but we still have a whole day's journey from the river, and we can't get rid of them even if we run forward." The pursuit of the corpse!"

"Master! Is there some kind of special connection between corpses..."

Qiu Ning jumped out of the car and said, "During the repair, I heard people say that someone tied up the child who had turned into a dead body and brought him with him. I wonder if he will be treated by a doctor after crossing the river..."

"Damn it! Which idiot did it..."

Zhao Guanren said angrily, "No wonder the corpses surround us. The black death energy inside the corpses can be discovered by people of the same kind hundreds of miles away. Hurry up and get rid of the little corpses in the team, and all the members turn away." Rongma County, throw away the luggage and trot forward!"

"Rongma County? Are we going to defend Rongma County..."

Qiu Ning looked at him in surprise, while Zhao Guanren said in a dark voice, "Rongma County is backed by a tributary of the Tongtian River. Send people to the riverside to inform them that they will put down the fleet and take the people across the river. We are in the mountains." Lay an ambush, as long as you can last!"

Chapter 0654 sees the Khaita people

Zhao Guanren didn't know how many people followed him, but he only knew that he had recruited 10,000+ people from the township warriors, police officers, etc. It is estimated that the number of people exceeded one million, but the elderly, young, women and children accounted for nearly half, which can be said to be the vast majority. It's all cumbersome.

"Quick! Go to the city to collect fire oil and send it to the front line..."

Zhao Guanren stood in the valley and shouted loudly. Rongma County was the place where he rescued Lu Datou. The people in the city had already evacuated to the other side of the river. The cliff is the perfect place to ambush.

"Run faster! Don't block the road, stay if you want to die..."

Zhao Guanren pulled out a steel knife to drive away the refugees. The black refugees were like a torrent, trotting out of the valley with their families and carrying their picks. The officers and soldiers had all climbed the cliffs on both sides, and a large number of torches were like two fire dragons. Lights up the valley.

"Child! Who has seen my child, help me..."

Noisy cries kept coming and going, but at this time, human lives were worthless, and there were tens of thousands of dead in accidents along the way, and the dead were already dead enough to make people numb, and Zhao Guanren had no time to take care of them. This was a battle of survival of the fittest Great Escape.

"The folk dug the mountain road, prepare more fire oil and stones, don't let the corpses rush up..."

Zhao Guanren's voice was almost hoarse, but except for the messengers, he didn't serve him at all. The women around him were all in charge of logistics, and everyone had their own things to do. Fortunately, he brought [-] elite soldiers, all of whom followed him. An old subordinate from the grassland.

"My lord! The scouts are here to report..."

A messenger rushed over and said: "Our strategy has worked. Qingqi rushed to Shahu Island with a few small corpses. The army of corpses has been led there. It is estimated that we can delay until dawn for us, but the number of people Exceeded expectations, there are probably 200 million people!"

"What? Where are there so many people..."

Zhao Guanren looked at him incredulously, but the other party said depressedly: "The common people don't believe in evil. Many people ran back after leaving the city. They only knew how powerful they were when they saw us fleeing. There are at least a million people in the nearby ten miles and eight villages, and they all went to the city. Here we come!"

"Master! It's a bad thing, Rongma County is not an empty city..."

Luo Tan ran over out of breath, and said: "There are tens of thousands of misers hiding in the city, and the boats left at the pier have been let off by them, not a single boat was left for us, only a large number of old and weak Women and children, we can only wait for the fleet from Gusu to arrive!"

"Damn! Not enough success, more than failure..."

Zhao Guanren cursed angrily, and after a few orders, he hurried up the cliff. Nearly [-] civilians were busy on the mountain, and the top of the mountain had already been built as a fortification, while the officers and soldiers took the time to rest, eat and drink.

"My lord! There are too many people fleeing for their lives, when will this be the end..."

All the generals gathered together. Zhao Guanren came to the edge of the cliff and looked out. The pitch-black wilderness was full of dots of fire, and countless people were coming from all directions. Mud farewell.

"It doesn't matter so much, as much as you can come in..."

Zhao Guanren said in a deep voice: "It is estimated that the corpses will arrive before dawn. As long as they come in, they will blow up the mountains and block the road. If there are any remaining humans, they can only be blamed for it. I have sent the notice long ago. We have done our best. Already!"

"But so many people can't be transferred..."

A dragon rider, Qianhu, frowned and said, "If we only rely on the Gusu fleet for transshipment, we can't transport so many people away in half a month, and it's an astronomical sum for people to eat horse chews. By then, everyone will be hungry and crazy. There will definitely be a big mess!"

"I can't wait for the day when I'm hungry..."

Zhao Guanren crossed his arms and said, "The 20 corpses are just the vanguard, and there are millions more rushing over. The corpses alone can fill up the cliff. We can stay here for five days at most, but we must find a way to get out." A lifeline, otherwise we are also a dead end!"

"My lord! Let's tie Hengjiang..."

A general clasped his fists and said: "We have enough blacksmiths, let them smelt iron and forge thick iron chains immediately. Let people quickly run to the other side of the river!"

"It doesn't work!"

One person vetoed: "This is just a tributary of the Tongtian River. To reach the other side of the river, you have to walk dozens of miles to reach the riverside of the Tongtian River. Moreover, the water here is gentle, and corpses can cross the river without holding stones. We are trapped. On the other side, we can only wait to die!"

"Since the water flow is gentle, let's build a bridge directly..."

Zhao Guanren said decisively: "We have so many people, we can't sit still, all the men will start working for me, even if the city wall is torn down, a bridge will be built, and the iron chains will be used by the Tongtian River, and another one will be built when the fleet arrives." pontoon!"

"That's right! We are more powerful..."

The eyes of all the generals lit up, but Zhao Guanren said again: "All the aged animals will be killed and eaten, and the soldiers will be given a full meal first, and the rest will be given to strong workers, craftsmen, women and children. The old man will let them eat meat." Find a way by yourself, you can't divide the rations of the soldiers!"

"As ordered!"

The generals held their fists in resignation. Although it is a virtue to respect the old and love the young, when it comes to life and death, we must first ensure that the young people survive, so that there is a possibility of resisting the catastrophe.

"Xue Ji! Where did you go, please don't let anything happen..."

Zhao Guanren sat on a rock by the cliff, overlooking the endless refugees. Although the voices were noisy, they were quite depressing. Most of the people were hurrying on their way. The rumbling footsteps were like a tsunami, making people feel panicked. .

"Your Highness! I have something to report from my humble position..."

A group of female dragon guards suddenly ran up. Zhao Guanren looked back in surprise and saw a pair of young men and women tied up. One of them was the imperial concubine Tan Wenxi, the only survivor who followed him out of the palace. A very tough little boy.

"What's wrong? What did Tan Wenxi do..."

Zhao Guanren stood up inexplicably, and Tan Wenxi, who was ashen-faced, did not dare to look at him, but a female commander said angrily: "Your Highness! The imperial concubine has no shame, and she has a private meeting with a wild man in the forest. Still armed with a weapon to injure someone, the crime should be punished!"

"Tan Wenxi! This person can't be your former fiancé..."

Zhao Guanren looked at the young man amusedly, and Tan Wenxi cried and said: "I, I just met him once, and I didn't do anything shameless, but the eunuch was very happy, and framed us for doing things that are not worth living. In a fit of anger, I drew my sword and chopped him down. hurt him!"

"My lord! It's none of your business..."

The little white face said anxiously: "Although my empress and I have been engaged since we were young, we have never surpassed each other. We just met by chance. We walked into the forest to reminisce about the past because we were afraid of being misunderstood. If you want to fight or kill, come at me. My empress is Innocent, it's all because I don't understand the rules!"

"Johnson! How should I be punished before this..."

Zhao Guanren looked at the female commander, who clasped his fists and replied, "His Royal Highness! The imperial concubine and the man had a secret meeting, even if they did not commit any crimes, they should be sentenced to death. The man will be sentenced to death, and his relatives will be exiled for thousands of miles. This matter has already been reported to the Queen Mother. The Empress Dowager said let the prince do what he wants!"

"Tan Wenxi! In the past, even your father was gone. Fortunately, the dynasty has changed..."

Zhao Guanren smiled and said: "I remember all the guards of the Dragon Guards. The Ji Kingdom no longer exists. We are now the Han Empire, and the queen mother is Chen Yongning. Tan Wenxi is at most a former imperial concubine. She is a widow who loves to do things." What are you doing, what are you worrying about!"

"..."

Everyone was stunned for a while, even the generals who were watching were dumbfounded. Tan Wenxi couldn't believe his ears, and he couldn't speak at all with his mouth open.

"Did you guys not understand the meaning of the imperial decree..."

Zhao Guanren said amusedly: "There is one emperor and one courtier. Chen Yongning's eldest son is Chen Guanxi, who is about to ascend the throne as emperor. Before the emperor reaches adulthood, the queen mother will listen to the government behind the curtain, but the state of auspiciousness is in the past tense. You are all courtiers of the Han Empire. Founding Fathers!"

"Your Highness! I'm an idiot with a lowly position, I don't understand what you said..."

The female commander scratched her head and said in confusion: "We know that the dynasty has changed, but the empress dowager's late husband is Ye Guanhai after all, and Tan Wenxi is her younger sister. According to the rules, she is still a member of the royal family of the Han Dynasty. Is it possible to depose all the ladies?"

"Johnson! Why are you so stupid..."

Zhao Guanren pinched her face and said with a smile: "Why is Chen Guanxi surnamed Chen? In order to clear the relationship with the Ye family, otherwise whoever will be punished by the heavens, and the queen mother divorced before Ye Guanhai's body was turned into a corpse. Prince and Diji, etc., have nothing to do with the royal family of the Han Dynasty, do you understand?"

"Understood! I completely understand..."

The burly Johnson nodded and said: "Then how do you deal with the ladies of the previous dynasty? Do you still need to send people to protect and serve them? They are already folk widows, right?"

"Follow the old rules before crossing the river. After crossing the river, someone will pick up the order..."

Zhao Guanren waved his hand with a smile, and when Tan Wenxi and her lover were released, he said with a smile: "Minister Tan Wenxi, you are free from now on, and you can marry anyone you want!"

"Thank you, my lord, for the grace of rebuilding..."

Tan Wenxi excitedly pulled her lover to kneel down, and the little white face kowtowed excitedly, but Zhao Guanren suddenly looked at the woods on the side, and said with a smile: "Hero, you are satisfied with this king's treatment, do you want to stab him?" I have a sword?"

"There are assassins!"

The Dragon Guards immediately dispersed and started to drink, but a man in black slowly walked out of the woods, holding a dark sword and bowing, "Your Majesty's treatment is fair, Caomin thank you for your kindness on behalf of my younger brother!"

"Second brother! Why are you here..."

The little boy exclaimed, and Tan Wenxi hurriedly stood up and said, "My lord! This is Li Zihao's second brother, Li Zinan. He only cares about our safety, and he didn't come to assassinate the king. And he is just like you... from that Corpse poison!"

"Immune to corpse poison? How is it possible..."

Zhao Guanren looked at the man in black in astonishment, but Li Zinan said expressionlessly: "The grassroots don't know what immunity is, but I saw the unparalleled battle between the prince and Ye Yunchen on the wall of Jinling City, but the poisonous fog gave me a headache." I'm so confused, I'm sorry Caomin didn't come forward!"

"Have you ever been hurt by a corpse man, are you sure the corpse poison can't hurt you..."

Zhao Guanren looked at him in disbelief, Li Zinan still had a dead face on his face, and said: "I was accidentally bitten by a servant who turned into a dead body, and I thought I would be infected at the time, but after being unconscious for a while, I'm fine. I don't know why it happened!"

"Ha~"

Zhao Guanren stepped forward and said with a smile: "I didn't expect to meet another Kaita man, tell me what you saw when you were unconscious, and who was talking to you?"

"do not know!"

Li Zinan shrugged and said: "There is a strange black guy, it said it could make me the supreme martial artist, the dragon among men, if I let it go, it will go away!"

Zhao Guanren asked with great interest: "It seems that you are from the rivers and lakes. What cultivation level do you have, and do you have a name in the rivers and lakes?"

"Super rank! Second place on the hero list, Li Zinan with a life-threatening throwing knife..."

"Who is number one?"

"Ye Yunchen, the mighty dragon's mace, but he knows spells, so it would be disgraceful to win..."

"!!!"

Chapter 0655 Corpse Tide

"Come on! Chestnut man, eat some fried chestnuts..."

Zhao Guanren handed over a bag of sugar-fried chestnuts, and Li Zinan, with a paralyzed face, took it, took out a small black flying knife, cut it skillfully and threw it into his mouth, without saying a word, desolate as if he had a cold personality.

"Chestnut man eats chestnuts, that's what he deserves..."

Zhao Guanren asked with a smile: "But why don't you want to follow me? Now that the catastrophe of annihilation is at hand, everyone is responsible, and it is also a good time for you to show your ambitions. Even if you don't want to be an official, you should do something for the folks and elders." contribution, no?"

"I can only fight, nothing else..."

The chestnut man raised his head and said: "Ye Yunchen also asked me to fight, but I don't understand why they fought, why the good country would make a mess, so I didn't agree, and even if I agreed, I couldn't do it well, I won't Leading soldiers, let alone how to get along with people!"

"Ok?"

Zhao Guanren asked doubtfully, "Don't you have any dreams or ambitions? What are you going through the rivers and lakes for, for money or for women, or for cultivating to become a fairy?"

"Earn money! Support a family..."

The chestnut man ate another chestnut, and muttered: "My family is in decline, and I have a large family to support. I can only earn money by competing with others or fighting. I have no interest in becoming an immortal, and women are also troublesome, so I haven't married yet. Wife, supporting my family is my only ambition!"
