Chapter 1602

~5 min read 806 words

Originally, it was just a few thousand infected, sometimes ten thousand attacking them.

Now, tens of thousands or even over a hundred thousand infected had come all at once.

This matter was filled with strangeness everywhere.

"General Tu, the matter is like this."

A deputy general stated the detailed news they had received.

It turned out that the patrolling soldiers would patrol outside the city at irregular times.

Each time, they would rush back before it got dark.

Over these days, they had figured out some of the habits of those monsters.

They did not appear during the day.

They only appeared at night.

Because they had started patrolling during the day.

This time, they discovered a large number of infected monsters before it was completely dark.

The reason they were discovered by the patrolling soldiers was because over a dozen people from the Jizi Kingdom had fled and caused it.

The fleeing people ran in this direction.

And the sky gradually turned dark.

The hidden infected monsters heard the sound and were attracted out.

The number grew larger and larger; by the time the patrolling soldiers discovered it, it was already too late.

They could not change the movement trajectory of those infected either.

They could only rush back to report the news.

Once the news was passed back, this scene today occurred.

Upon learning the news, the soldiers all ran to the city wall.

Originally, they rested during the day and guarded the city at night.

Now that it was not yet dark, the infected appeared again.

They could only go up to the city wall to keep watch in advance.

"No wonder then."

"So there was someone leading them in front."

"This is simply an unprovoked disaster! An unprovoked disaster!"

After learning the sequence of events, Tu Donghai was so angry that he punched the city wall.

Could those people from the Jizi Kingdom not have chosen another place to flee?

Why did they have to run toward this position?

Wasn't this dragging them into the water?

The main thing was that they did not have much resistance left now.

If the Empire's reinforcements arrived, they would have nothing to fear.

But now they only had over ten thousand soldiers.

The long-range arrow weapons had also been shot seven or eight out of ten.

With so many infected coming all at once, they had no ability to deal with them.

"This is an unprovoked disaster, and we cannot avoid it either."

"We must hold this place to the death and fight them to the bitter end!"

A deputy general revealed a determination to die, never to retreat.

"Holding to the death also requires a different method."

"Continuing to guard like this is not a solution."

"Have the arrows all been moved up?"

Tu Donghai frowned deeply.

"They have all been moved up."

"Besides arrows, stones have also been moved up."

Someone responded.

"Not enough, far from enough!"

"You give the order to move up anything that can burn."

"It will definitely be useful when the time comes."

Tu Donghai looked at a deputy general.

The deputy general was stunned, but he also quickly went to execute the order.

"You take people to move stones or wood and such things over."

"Place some both outside the city gate and inside the city gate."

"The city gate might not be strong enough, so use these things to block the city gate."

"Otherwise, this gate might be the first to be breached."

"As long as the city gate is breached, we will be in danger."

"This city wall is so high, they shouldn't be able to climb up."

"The main thing is to protect the city gate well."

These words from Tu Donghai enlightened everyone.

Just now, they only thought of holding to the death and perishing together.

They had not thought of many methods.

Now hearing General Tu say this.

They could not help but feel that the path ahead suddenly cleared up.

"Understood!"

Those who heard this could not help but have their eyes light up.

This method was very good; as long as the city gate was not breached, it would be fine.

With the city wall there, the infected would not be able to climb up easily.

Most of the soldiers on the city wall participated in it.

Most people went to help move things.

Only a small portion of people remained at their posts.

If the infected came, they would be the first to raise the alarm.

Time passed slowly like this.

When the soldiers had moved all the necessary things and placed them well.

The city gate area had already been blocked solid by stones and wood.

The level of sturdiness was even stronger than the previous city gate.

This busyness took an hour.

The sky had also turned dark.
