The demon world I designed

Chapter 86 A bad situation.

Nanming Mansion:

"Admiral, all the grain has been counted in the granary. The government has purchased all the grain on the market in Nanming Mansion at the current price. Businessmen who dared to take advantage of the opportunity to increase prices have already captured them all!"

The chief envoy respectfully reported the situation to the tall admiral in the palace hall.

Theoretically speaking, in terms of local administration, he, the chief envoy, is at the same level as the admiral, and one is in charge of the administration and the other is in charge of the military. But now that the generals are strong, officials who are not warlocks really have no confidence in front of these blood warriors.

"Okay!" Admiral Zhou Hanyang, who didn't even have time to unload his armor and stomach, nodded and kept pouring tea into his mouth. It was obvious that he was seriously dehydrated due to the huge physical exertion.

"You don't have to worry," Zhou Hanyang said while drinking water: "No matter what the background of those grain merchants are, even if they are from the four major trading houses, if they dare to raise prices at this time, they will all be deducted, and if they dare to resist, they will be killed!"

"Yes," the chief envoy said with a bitter smile, "I will not tolerate anyone who dares to enrich the country."

At this time, the life of the whole city depends on the man in front of him, so naturally he will do whatever he says.

"General, do you know the origin of the monster outside the city?" the chief envoy asked cautiously.

"How do I know?" Zhou Hanyang rolled his eyes at him, feeling annoyed.

These living corpses that suddenly appeared are actually not very powerful. In addition to being brave and unafraid of death, they are also stronger than ordinary people. Their movements are stiff and they don't know how to use weapons. They are not really impressive in front of the fully armed elites.

If in an open terrain, as long as there are a few hundred elite cavalry, command to disperse, and cooperate with archers and spearmen to divide, it is often possible to defeat one against ten with minimal casualties.

But there are so many of these ghosts that they seem to be endless. At first, only tens of thousands came ashore. After he led his army to kill them all, another wave came, and the number of each wave became more and more. As of yesterday, As evening approached Chen hour, the last wave, numbering at least more than 100,000, rolled out of the waves densely, like waves of living corpses!

There are more than 50,000 naval troops stationed in Nanming Mansion, but most of them are miscellaneous soldiers on sea ships. The number of elites who can really fight is actually only 20,000, but the number of living corpses killed in these two nights may not start at 300,000. Already?

Even killing 300,000 pigs made many soldiers very tired at this time, and it was inevitable that a lot of casualties began to occur one after another.

Thinking about this week, Hanyang became more and more irritable. In fact, the last wave of zombies yesterday was not completely killed. When it was close to dawn, those zombies seemed to avoid the sun and ran back into the water one after another. Naturally, his soldiers would not rush into it. Go into the water and kill the enemy.

He knew that it would be troublesome if these ghosts traveled along the water to surrounding districts and counties!

But now that there are already insufficient personnel, if we have to divide our troops to defend the county or even the countryside, the enemy's numerical advantage will be brought to the extreme.

Not to mention that a lot of new ones might pop up in the river at night.

Just as he was thinking about it, several people hurriedly walked in at the door of the government office. The chief envoy hurriedly greeted them when he saw them.

It was the academic master who he felt was the most reliable: Mu Hongqing.

"I heard from the students below, General, you did not annihilate all those monsters today, but let them return to the water?" Mu Hongqing asked directly without being polite as soon as he came in.

Zhou Hanyang felt unhappy after hearing this, but he still didn't get angry. After all, the guy in front of him was not an ordinary civil servant, but a warlock at the academic level. Facing these weird monsters, he had to admit that warlocks often have serious consequences. effect.

So he nodded and said patiently: "There are too many living corpses, and they are highly poisonous. If they are scratched or bitten, the soldiers will lose their ability to fight the next day. If they go into water to pursue them, the soldiers' armor will be destroyed." It has become a burden, but if you take off your armor and go into the water, the probability of injury is very high. Now the troops are insufficient, and if we continue to lose like this, we are afraid that the situation will be unfavorable! "

Mu Hongqing nodded when he heard this: "I know the general is in trouble, but if those living corpses are allowed to escape from the water, they will surely spread to the surrounding counties and countryside, and ordinary people will be massacred!"

"How could I not know?" Zhou Hanyang said irritably: "But what can I do, Admiral? The fog is weird now, and I don't know how many living corpses are in it. Maybe there will be more at night. At this time, it would be good to defend Nanming Mansion. How can you dare to divide your troops and go to the districts and counties?”

"General, should you consider strengthening the walls and clearing the country?"

"Strengthen the walls and clear the country?" Zhou Hanyang looked at the other party: "You mean to drive everyone to Nanming Mansion?"

Mu Hongqing nodded: "Districts and counties have no ability to protect themselves. Those monsters don't look like they eat food, and they probably won't damage crops. Moreover, I have observed carefully. Living corpses seem to be afraid of the sun, and activities during the day are extremely harmful." They either hide in the river or gather in a layer of black mist that somehow forms, which is far less lethal than night. "

"We can go to the surrounding districts and counties during the day to move as many people as possible to Nanming Mansion. If we encounter these living corpses on the road, it will be easier to deal with them when their movements are restricted during the day. What do you think, General?"

"The people have all entered the city, and the food pressure is not small!" Zhou Hanyang said quietly: "Now that the river transportation has been cut off, food is tight. If we drive all the people into Nanming Mansion, how can we manage so many mouths?"

When he said this, the apprentice next to Mu Hongqing couldn't help but frown: "It's a bumper harvest this year, so every household in the countryside should have a surplus of food, right? They bring their own food, how can they be short of food?"

Zhou Hanyang glanced at the apprentice coldly but did not respond. The apprentice was puzzled, but Mu Hongqing's face was extremely ugly, and he instantly understood the other party's plan!

Nanming Mansion has a large population, and its food usually relies on river transportation. It is impossible for the surrounding districts and counties to support it. Now that food and grass are in short supply in the city, and the river transportation is blocked, where will the food come from after a long time?

Judging from the other party's intention, it is obvious that he does not intend to control the life and death of the people in the district and county. After all, these living corpses only eat people, but not food.

If the living corpses eat the surrounding people, won't there be more food? Then just send the army to the countryside to search for food during the day!

"Sir, you are really cruel!" Mu Hongqing said word by word.

"Compassion does not control soldiers!" Zhou Hanyang also said with a cold voice: "If not, what will my men eat? What will the people in Liuzhou eat? They will die together if they care about anything. In critical moments, only by cutting off the tail can you survive. Such a simple truth , Master Xuezheng, do you want a certain martial artist to teach you?"

Several apprentices obviously understood what they were saying, and their faces instantly turned pale, but they did not speak out to refute. Obviously, as the beneficiaries, even if they are mentally unwell, their buttocks should be crooked when they should be crooked!

Mu Hongqing looked at the other party coldly for a long time, and was about to say something else when suddenly the government servant at the door of the house ran in in a hurry.

"Why are you so flustered?" The chief envoy, who couldn't say anything for a long time, suddenly shouted angrily.

"My lord, you are crazy, you are crazy!"

"You are crazy!" The chief envoy was so angry that the five Buddhas ascended to heaven.

"No, sir," the officer stammered, "it's those soldiers, those soldiers are crazy!"

"What did you say?" Zhou Hanyang's eyes widened, he strode over and lifted the person up like a kitten: "What's going on?"

"I don't know, I don't know," the officer cried, "those wounded soldiers started biting people like crazy last night. When we went to count the wounded this morning, we saw that many people were bitten to death. Many doctors were bitten to death, it was so miserable!”

"This" Zhou Hanyang felt a bad premonition in his heart when he heard this, and rushed out suddenly.

Behind him, Mu Hongqing, who was watching the other person's figure leaving quickly, was also in a daze. After a long time, he came back to his senses and murmured: "Oops."

Based on his many years of experience in contact with demons, he instantly judged that the crazy soldiers mentioned by the government officials were probably the injured soldiers who were carried into the city. The admiral had said before that the teeth and claws of those living corpses were highly poisonous. Now it seems , I'm afraid it's not as simple as being highly poisonous. These living corpses are probably the same as the insect demon, able to assimilate and infect others, and the efficiency is extremely fast!

When he thought of this, he quickly walked out of the house, feeling troubled in his heart.

If this corpse poison could be contagious, I'm afraid it would be troublesome. No one paid attention to the city last night. I'm afraid the poison has already spread! ——

"Sir, the soldiers have been allocated. There are 1,539 new recruits in total. All of them are willing to go to the countryside to save people, but it seems that they all want to give priority to their own hometowns to save people!"

"No." Chen Qing shook his head: "Going to one's own hometown can easily lead to confusion in command. It must be staggered. The mission of rescuing relatives must be included in the operation, but you are not allowed to rescue yourself!"

Wei Gongcheng smiled when he heard this. Mr. Chen was a scholar, so he had quite a lot of experience in leading troops.

"Put out five hundred soldiers who have enlisted in the army and charge them into the south gate!"

These words made Wei Gongcheng frown slightly. He agreed with leaving soldiers behind, but would they only guard the south gate?

"Sir, don't you need to control other doors?"

Chen Qing shook his head: "Liuzhou is backed by Nanshan, but the east and north gates lead to the main road. Nothing will happen there for the time being!"

The east gate leads to the boundary of the Ming Mansion in the south, and the north gate leads to the boundary of Nanyang. They are both big cities. The seven continents in the south of the Yangtze River are divided and have their own magic circles to block them. The living corpses in the early stage will not come from different areas. It is said that the living corpses yesterday will detour him. I don’t believe it. Although the leader of the zombies has some IQ, it is only a little, far from the level of a normal person.

The top priority now is to improve the quality of the goalkeeper.

Last night, many people had witnessed the power of the door god with their own eyes. They believed that the soldiers who became gate guards would soon transform into loyal believers. According to the rules, only loyal believers could receive the blessing of the door god. With a little training, they could become low-level soldiers. With 1,000 low-level servants, the wind wolf can be promoted to the ninth rank of the yellow rank and be included in the rank!

When the time comes to face the next wave of living corpses, Chen Qing will have a lot of confidence.

Therefore, when we go out for search and rescue this time, we try to bring in as many people as possible, especially young people!

While watching Chen Qing and Wei Gongcheng continue to discuss the search and rescue route, Shen Laoer on the side looked to the north, with a trace of worry in his eyes.

Due to the existence of the Shen family, the imperial court did not have many troops stationed in Nanyang. The current situation is probably even worse than in Liuzhou!

Lao Liu has always been wise, and now we can only hope that he can control this terrible situation.
