Chapter 1623: The city gate collapsed, breaking into the city

~4 min read 751 words

The city gate was burned and collapsed.

The corpses outside the city rolled into the city.

Everyone looked at all of this nervously.

The infected outside the city who could still move rushed up like sharks smelling blood.

They were not afraid of the fire at all, launching a charge like a suicide squad.

Ying Ying Zi Ye made a gesture, and Han Xin understood.

He ran to the other side and shouted to the soldiers who had been prepared for a long time inside the city.

"Everyone, get ready!"

"The infected are about to charge in!"

Han Xin's loud shout was heard by the soldiers.

All the soldiers' expressions shifted upon hearing this.

Was it finally their turn to take action?

At this moment.

All the soldiers holding heavy shields stood in battle formation.

Waiting for the upcoming impact.

Everyone's palms were full of sweat, waiting nervously.

On the city wall.

Ying Ying Zi Ye's brows were deeply furrowed.

Those infected who were burning would be ruthlessly burned to death after a long time.

But some who had just caught fire would not die so quickly.

They carried the fire light, like humanoid fire gods, rushing toward the inside of the city.

These infected carrying fire light were even more powerful than when they had no flames.

Charging in with flames might cause certain damage to the soldiers inside the city.

"Are there any more fire oil barrels?"

"There is a little left, but not much."

After Han Xin gave the order, he came to His Highness's side again.

"Throw some crossbeams down, and then throw some fire oil barrels down."

"As long as we obstruct the charging speed of the infected, the number of them getting in won't be very large."

"The people on the city wall, concentrate your fire on the city gate!"

"Try to minimize the number of infected entering the city!"

Ying Ying Zi Ye gave such an order.

He could only do this.

Only by doing this could they reduce the entry of the infected.

Otherwise, if too many infected got in, the pressure on the soldiers inside the city would also be great.

If the heavy shields were impacted, then the soldiers behind them would be in trouble.

Although there were many soldiers, dealing with these infected who were fearless of death was also a big trouble.

The main thing is that one will be infected if scratched or bitten.

This is the most fatal part, so one cannot be injured when fighting the infected.

This point is too difficult; how could one not be injured on the battlefield?

Now the number of infected is gradually decreasing.

It is estimated that it won't be long before they might be eliminated.

"Understood!"

Meng Tian, Han Xin, and others immediately began to take action.

Directing the soldiers to start finding some wood.

They threw it down toward the city gate.

The soldiers operated like a machine.

When enough wood had been thrown down,

barrel after barrel of fire oil had their lids opened and were also thrown down.

Then there was another burst of fire shooting into the sky.

This time the fire was especially large, with flames shooting directly onto the city wall.

The soldiers nearby retreated one after another.

Otherwise, they would definitely be roasted dry.

The fire was fierce, but there were still infected rushing into the city.

Hundreds of infected had already rushed in before the fire became so large.

However, the speed of those infected entering the city was undoubtedly slowed down countless times.

The infected entering the city were all carrying fire light.

Looking at them, they were like humanoid monsters spraying fire all over.

It is unknown whether this fire was burning their flesh or for some other reason.

One could see that the movements of those infected entering the city were slower than before.

Some infected who had just entered the city didn't even run a few steps before being burned to death, falling directly to the ground.

The remaining infected, whose fire light was not so intense, rushed directly toward the crowd.

It was as if there was delicious food ahead, and they could eat a big meal if they just got a little closer.

This scene was so terrifying.

It made one lose their appetite just looking at it.

If there were common people or women and children here to see this scene,

they would definitely be scared into a mental breakdown; it was too terrifying.
