I'm in Love with the Kunlun Sword Immortal from 3,000 Years Ago/

Chapter 62: The Corpse Army Besieges the City

: Hulao Pass, the city wall is towering, about 150 feet high, compared with the city wall of Cangzhou City, it is not lower.

The thick gate covers and lives.

The crescent moon hanging high in the sky casts a dark yellow light.

Zhuge Dali was the commander of the night watch. He led hundreds of soldiers to guard the city wall and looked out at the vast plains outside the city..

He had been at Hulao Pass for four years with the army. When he first arrived at Hulao Pass, he was homesick and always thought of his wife, children and elderly parents.

He was recruited, along with a dozen brothers from his village..

However, as the war began, his brother fell two in a row on the cruel battlefield, buried forever in the loess and turned into dry bones.

And now, he's the only one left, and he's been promoted to associate leader, middle three..

But he wasn't happy. There was a long scar on his chest. It was left by exchanging his life for his life..

He wasn't unhappy because of this, but because he risked his life to survive, while his dozens of fellow villagers died..

He was promoted, but it was his brothers who paid the price of their lives to replace him..

He hoped that the war would end soon, but after charging forward a few days ago, he knew that the war should end in such a short time. After all, both sides had already used their incredible power..

It is said that the immortal's methods are mysterious and unpredictable. They have the ability to destroy heaven and earth and have the power to summon ghosts and gods..

However, he had never seen these methods before. However, the invisibility spell that the general had used a few days ago was an eye-opener..

However, what followed was that his heart began to waver and he began to guess what had happened before..

And those speculations were all about the general's stealth methods..

We didn't say it, but we all knew it..

That was a discussion about the Great General. Although it wasn't exactly what it seemed, everyone felt that since the Great General had these abilities, why didn't he use them earlier? He obviously wanted to wait until the enemy invaded the city and killed so many people before starting to use them..

Although this is a battlefield tactic, it cannot be used after so many people have been sacrificed..

He didn't know tactics, so he had fought hard to get this position for four years. However, he didn't care. No matter how big the position was, it couldn't exchange the lives of his dead brothers..

However, the Great General loved his army as much as his life. Other than concealing a little bit of his stealth method, Zhuge Dali could not find any flaws in him, nor could he find any reason to criticize him..

Not only him, but even his brothers who were dissatisfied would not look for trouble and stir up trouble at the critical moment..

But today, something annoyed and upset him, because the general ordered the burning of the bodies of his brothers on the east hill..

The dead are big, the dead are safe.

These eight words had long been deeply engraved in everyone's hearts. At this moment, they had to burn the bodies of their brothers who had died in battle. It directly made people's hearts cold..

Although we are only asking for your opinion, we will naturally not agree, but it is inevitable that military orders will be like a mountain. When it is time to burn, it will still be burned.

"Hey, if I really burn my brothers 'bones, I'll at most be dismissed from office after the war and not be the leader of this association..

"The great man thought in his heart..

"Sir, the brothers 'complaints should have been passed on to the general, right?.

"It's passed on.

Zhuge Dali said,"The general is still asking for opinions from everyone, and he will not burn the bones of his brothers for a while.".

"That's good..

The big soldier nodded and said,"We died in the battlefield, and we don't ask for anything. We only want to return to the ground. If this is not enough for us, this soldier is not good.".

"Keep your voice down.

Zhuge Dali glared at him and said,"When the national disaster comes, we instinctively sacrifice our lives for the country and sprinkle our blood to protect the old, sick and pregnant in our small family. If we all retreat, this country will still be a country.".

"Leader, I understand this principle. If there were no one, how could we have a small family?".

"It's good to understand.

Zhuge Dali patted him on the shoulder and said,"After the war, we will retire and return home. From then on, we will not care about this military journey. We will raise some chickens and ducklings at home. The family will gather together and be happy..

"Very good.

The big soldier nodded and responded..

" Leader Xie, come over and take a look. Is that a person?"

At this time, standing in front of a soldier rubbed his eyes, pointing at the front of the Hirano said.

" People? Who are they? It's late at night and the road is unclear. Then the Song army won't…"

Zhuge Dali's voice stopped abruptly because a figure did appear in front of his eyes. Oh, no, it seemed to be two, three, no, no, it seemed to be five, six, no, seven, eight? None of them were right. Eh, why were there more and more?

The people who followed him to count the number all took a deep breath. They were densely packed. The entire Pingye area was full of people. There were at least ten thousand people..

" He, why didn't they light torches? Or ride horses? Did they all come here on foot?" Zhuge Dali frowned and looked at the strange scene outside the city gate..

Maybe it was because they were far away, but I felt that their walking was extremely strange, unbalanced and irregular..

Zhuge Dali felt strange, but he did not dare to be careless. He quickly asked the people beside him to ring the gong and shouted loudly," Prepare for battle, prepare for battle, gather quickly.".

"Knock!"

The sound of gongs rang in the city, breaking the silence of the night and spreading to the streets. At the same time, countless houses lit up, and there were waves of rustling clothes..

General Yue Long led a few guards up the stone stairs of the city wall and shouted at Zhuge Dali," What happened? Shouldn't the enemy attack be so quiet?"

:.

"General, please go up to the city wall and say something..

Yue Long was suspicious. When he and a few guards reached the top of the high wall, they looked up at the outside of the city and sucked in a cold breath..

There were about ten thousand Song soldiers approaching the city gate..

When they got closer, Zhuge Dali and the others saw clearly that they were a group of soldiers with disheveled hair, covered in blood, and torn clothes..

"Then, isn't that Zuo Daba's assistant leader whom I killed?"

" It's a good thing that there's that sergeant. Didn't we work together to kill him?"

"Then, then why are there still half heads?.

"How did they come back to life?"

"They are not human..

Yue Long said in a deep voice. He was worried that the mountain top in the east city would also undergo a zombie transformation..

" Not human?" Zhuge Dali looked at Yue Long in confusion..

"Yes, not humans. They evolved from dead bodies. Simply put, they turned into zombies, which is also rumored among the people..

" Zombies?" The soldiers gasped. No wonder these Song Guosi didn't look alive. They were zombies. The rumors among the people were true..

"General, what do we do now?.

"And the people of Israel look upon the LORD.".

They are afraid of fire..

"The fire is burning," he said,"or burning.".

" General, we've moved the kerosene to the east side of the mountain. Do you want to…" Before the man could finish speaking, he looked shocked." Will the corpses turn into zombies on the mountain?"

Everyone looked at each other and finally encountered something tricky and strange..

"Yes, it is..

Yue Long said,"I didn't tell you before, because I didn't believe that the demon of Song could control so many corpses. Now it seems that he really has this ability.".

"What should we do now?"

"Yue Xin, bring your men to prepare combustibles. Wood, tables, benches, quilts, bring all combustibles..

He said,"We have to build a wall of fire under the city to stop them from coming in.".

"Yes, it is..

A bearded soldier behind Yue Long received the order and quickly retreated from the city wall. He led his men to search for flammable materials to start a fire..

He had not walked for long when a large fire suddenly rose from the east side of the mountain, illuminating half of the east city..

"It's the east side. Those corpses have also changed..

And then he said,"What happens is what happens.".

Zhuge Dali and the others looked gloomy. They all lowered their heads slightly and were embarrassed to look at Yue Long..

Yue Long had suggested burning the corpses of those who died in battle, but no one agreed. Now, he had set up an internal problem in his formation..

Yue Long saw their expressions and said,"I don't blame you. You can stop me from burning my brothers 'corpses, which proves that you are all loyal, strong and upright soldiers of Chu. However, we will definitely lose to both inside and outside. Therefore, all the corpses that have changed will be burned. This will stop the enemy's sneak attack.".

"We will do as the general says..

"It's not these zombies that we're worried about now, it's the Song army that suddenly launched a sneak attack..

"What should we do now?"

"We can only defend the city gates and wait for reinforcements to arrive..

"Yue Long said helplessly..

"General, the enemy is still 200 feet away..

"Bring the bow and arrow..

"Yes, it is..

Someone raised a longbow and Yue Long caught it in his hand before shooting at the undead in the middle..

"Peng!"

A loud sound broke through the air as a sharp arrow pierced through the undead's head. The powerful aftereffect brought him flying out and crashed into several people behind him before stopping his retreat..

However, only a trace of black blood appeared on the undead's head. It did not die from the arrow..

Although he was mentally prepared, Yue Long also felt his scalp tingle. Ordinary swords and sabers clearly could not hurt these zombies..

He suddenly thought of the zombies on the east mountain and his expression changed drastically. He had only asked them to light a fire to trap the zombies. Without his order, they naturally did not dare to ignite the gunpowder and blow up all the corpses. However, those few layers of fire circles could not trap more than 10,000 zombies rushing down the mountain..

"Deputy General Lu, take your men to guard the city gate. I'll take my men to the eastern city to take a look..

"Then he put down his bow and arrow, and hurried off with several bodyguards..

Several of them mounted their horses, and in half a cup of tea they arrived at the top of Dongcheng Mountain..

The foot of the mountain was in chaos. Hundreds of zombies broke through the fire circle and rushed into the crowd, roaring and roaring..

There were less than a thousand people at the foot of the mountain, but they were suddenly washed away by the undead and broke into the crowd..

They had never seen such a strange situation before. The team was broken up and thrown into chaos..
