Chapter 524 Night of the Living Dead
Roma successfully captured Xiangteng County because Xiangteng County had no soldiers at all.
After entering Xiangteng County, the second general Di Jiala did not sleep all night and his hair became much whiter.
He didn't have time to rest because there was still something urgent waiting for him to deal with.
If he wants to write a good news, he must report the news of victory to the Grand Duke as soon as possible.
This important task is very important and must not be handed over to others to prevent those with ulterior motives from writing false content into good news.
This good news first highlights the wisdom and greatness of the Grand Duke, and secondly, highlights the bravery and courage of the second general Di Jiala at a critical moment.
Of course, as a setback, the writing of the Sellers and their daughters must be limited. They should focus on portraying their stupidity and retardation to contrast the tall image of the second general who fought hard in this battle and turned the tide.
Write less of the previous part, especially the ambush part, such as when to take action, what vanguard troops should be pursued, etc. Di Jiala didn't understand these things before, and now he doesn't understand them very well. Sheltai still doesn't understand them when asked in the future, and he might get into big trouble.
The focus is on writing the wise decision to occupy Xiangteng County. When the father and daughter of Sellers were timid, slack, short-sighted and missed opportunities for war, the second general Di Jiala finally made the right decision with his loyalty and love to the Grand Duke, coupled with his years of experience, he finally made the right decision, thus winning this great victory.
It was almost noon, and Di Jiala finally wrote the good news. He looked haggard and bloodshot. He handed the good news to the messenger, and repeatedly reminded him to whip it quickly and not to stop for a moment. He must deliver the good news to Sheltai with his own hands.
At noon, Di Jiala did not eat. He asked someone to ride a horse and chase the messenger back, and adjusted the words in the good news for a while.
In the afternoon, Di Jiala still couldn't sleep. He called a few subordinates who knew a little about military affairs and asked some common sense questions, such as how to judge the timing of attack and pursuit. He was worried that Seles would use these boring details in front of the Grand Duke.
"When dealing with these despicable villains, you must be prepared for some things early." Di Jiala was ready until dusk, and she was sure to deal with them in all kinds of ways. Then she ate something and went to bed.
He slept very sweetly and had a beautiful dream. In the dream, he was rewarded for this military achievements and promoted from viscount to earl. He was patrolling his territory and wanted to give the lord's blessing to two peasants. He decided to receive all the four daughters of the two peasants as maids in the castle.
Unfortunately, the maid just arrived at the castle and a guard woke him up.
He slapped the guard hard and said angrily: "What's the matter? Don't you know I haven't closed my eyes all day and night?"
The guard said: "Second General, the enemy has entered!"
Di Jiala spat and said, "I knew that the stupid father and daughter were useless! How could there be enemies in the territory I just captured?"
The guards were speechless, and even they knew that they were most vulnerable to attack when they were not stable.
Di Jiala said again: "Come someone to ride a fast horse and get the messenger back, and the news of the good news needs to be modified."
"Second General, now there is no time to change the news, and the enemy will enter your bedroom."
Di Jiala accidentally fell under the bed and then climbed up as fast as possible.
"Hurry, bring my robe, my sword, my seal, and most importantly my seal."
There was a sound of collision outside the door, and the guard said, "Don't worry about swords and seals. If you still refuse to leave, we must take a step first."
Di Jiala wanted to scold the guards, but found that the bedroom door had been knocked open, and a Divine Punishment Army walked in.
Di Jiala screamed, "Come on, stop him, he's here!"
The guard stepped forward and cut off the right hand of the God Punisher with a sword. The God Punisher's body shook for a moment, as if he had lost his balance, but soon returned to normal and continued to walk towards the Guard.
The guard raised his sword and chopped it again. The person who was punished by the God bit his wrist and tore it and pulled it down, biting the guard's right hand.
Di Jiala almost fainted. Although she hadn't experienced much war, she had at least heard some descriptions. He felt that the Divine Punishment Army should be much different from humans, and she also fought with swords, rather than biting like wild animals.
The guard with his broken hand was still fighting with the Divine Punisher, and another guard had already rushed out of the bedroom. He didn't want to care about Di Jiala anymore.
Di Jiala ran out crying and shouting, and saw a scene on the street, solids, gas, and liquid flowing down her pants.
The soldiers are fighting to the death, and the God-Punisher is biting.
The ground was full of incomplete corpses, and some of them had turned into pieces of meat that could not be distinguished in outlines, but these pieces of meat could still squirm.
What is this? Is this a battlefield or hell?
With tears hanging, saliva flowing, and dragging heavy pants, Di Jiala ran around with the guards in a daze.
A piece of wreckage with no head, no legs, and only the torso was left. Suddenly, he stretched out his hand and grabbed Di Jiala's leg. Di Jiala poked her head to the ground and broke two front teeth.
He almost fainted from the pain, and a severe pain made him wake up again.
The wreckage that tripped over him had no mouth and could not bite him, but could grab him with his nails, and in this moment, almost peeled off a layer of skin from his legs.
Di Jiala screamed loudly, unable to kick it away or shake it away. Seeing that several more divine punishments surrounded him, Di Jiala shouted loudly and blindfolded his eyes.
He was shocked. He thought he was dead, but when he woke up again, he found that he could still see the sky and the sun.
It was dawn and he was lying on the flatbed carriage that was pulling goods.
He sat up and carefully examined every part of his body.
The hands are still there and the feet are also there. Except for some scratches on the calf, there are no other wounds on the body.
Di Jiala burst into tears: "Thank you, thank you, Grand Duke, I am still alive, still alive!"
His ability to live until now has nothing to do with the gods or the great master. It was Roma who saved him to the death.
In the battle last night, Roma lost very tragically. She had fought with the believers of Pluto and had encountered zombies, but she had never encountered thousands of zombies.
First, the Divine Punishment Army, which died yesterday, belonged to Leo and Dwight. These corpses had just died, were intact, and were trained during their lifetime, and had outstanding combat effectiveness. Sumora asked them to take the lead in attacking Xiangteng County as the vanguard.
Next there are inventory, the ones collected when they just occupied the Southeast.
When they arrived in the southeast, they saw hundreds of thousands of corpses along the way. Although most of them were rotten, even if they were selected from one in a hundred, there were nearly ten thousand corpses that could be used. However, these corpses died for too long and were difficult to compete for the charge. They were only suitable for checking for omissions and adding depth to the main force.
The tide of living zombies surged from all directions. Roma, who had no way to deal with it, chose to retreat. Although she retreated in time, she still lost more than half of her soldiers. She originally won a great victory of zero deaths, but unexpectedly it turned out to be a disastrous defeat.
Having reached this situation, Viscount Cyrus still did not forget to please Dijla.
"General, we had to retreat, the enemy is too..."
"Don't tell me these useless reasons. It's your incompetence that Xiangteng County will be lost again!" The joy of the surviving disaster calmed down, and Di Jiala quickly regained her former face.
He had already figured out how to report to Sheltay. Under his wise command, the soldiers captured Xiangteng County. Because he was exhausted, he took a nap for a while. The incompetent Sellers and his daughter were taken advantage of by the enemy...
Dwight returned to the capital and was ready to be severely punished by Barkern, but unexpectedly, Barkern did not punish him and did not even say a word of blame.
"I always think that Xiangteng County is a trap, but you say I'm timid, and it turns out that I'm right."
Dwight was ashamed, and he knelt on one knee and took the initiative to ask Barkern for punishment. Barkern smiled and helped him up.
"We have been going all the way to the present, from disgust and suspicion of each other, to sharing life and death, being close to each other as brothers and sisters, what is the failure of a battle worth to us?"
Dwight's eyes were a little red, and he seemed to have a long-lost feeling, the feeling that could only be found in Howet.
Barkern patted Dwight on the shoulder: "I believe we will always gain something in this battle."
"Yes!" Drewit nodded, "I saw Leo Frank. I saw him with my own eyes. He was still alive. I killed more than a thousand soldiers and almost killed him. On the way to pursue, I encountered an ambush and suffered this crushing defeat."
"Whose ambush?"
DeWart took out a few arrows and handed them to Barkern.
The style of the arrowhead is very strange, it is more than an inch long, with serrated teeth at the front and barbs at the back.
This is a unique arrowhead in the southeast, because the technique is too special and no other place can be copied.
Barkern murmured with the arrowhead, "Is it Sheltai?"
"Who else?" Dwight said gritting his teeth, "Many of our soldiers were just arrows and were not fatally injured, but the damn arrowheads could not be pulled out. They kept bleeding on the road until they died. There were still many soldiers dying. The medical officers tried their best to do so, but they didn't know if they could survive."
Barkeen shook his head and said, "Don't let the medical officer do whatever he wants, I know how to pull out the arrow."
The two walked out of the palace together, and on the way, Barkern whispered: "Shertai, Leonder, Leo Frank, it seems that they have really formed an alliance."
Dwight said: "And with Manda Claudesay, he must be inseparable from it."
Barkeen nodded: "It seems I have to send a few more letters."
Leonder sat in the hall and kept laughing at Manda. He laughed since he met, and Manda was almost gone, but he still couldn't stop.
"It's just a small victory," Manda said with a little contempt, "There's no need to be so excited."
"This is exciting. It's not as simple as a small victory. We defeated Barkhon and Sheltai at the same time. The God Emperor is very satisfied with it. I received the oracle last night. He will give me a way to advance to the sixth level in ten days, and will also give you a reward alone!"
I have to get a reward again, this time I have to think about what reward I want.
"I'm going to hold a grand banquet tonight, and call all your friends, those who give advice, those who fight for you, and those who punish you, and those who punish you, and I have a gift for them."
Manda shook her head and said, "It's not convenient for them to show up, I'll just attend on their behalf."
"Stingy, you are just too cautious!"
During the casual remark, a guard walked in with a messenger.
It was Barkern's messenger, and Leond showed an indescribable expression.
The corners of his mouth were smiling, but his brows were twisted.
"The Archbishop still has the intention to write to me? I want to see what he wrote."
Leonder unscrewed the message tube and suddenly smelled a fireworks.
Manda also smelled it and quickly shouted, "Be careful!"
When the words came to the ground, it was too late. A spark fell on Leonder's skin and instantly spread to his entire arm.
