Chapter 1699

The soldiers began to clean up the battlefield.

It wasn't to clear the corpses.

It was to recover those arrows for reuse.

Otherwise, no amount of arrows would be enough for them to use.

Not long after.

The battlefield was cleared.

Ying Ying Zi Ye also issued the order to continue moving forward.

The great army continued toward the direction of the Jizi Kingdom's city.

When they were in the canyon, they had already entered the territory of the Jizi Kingdom.

As they traveled, the surrounding villages gradually became more frequent.

At first, the surroundings didn't look like a place where people lived.

The region was very desolate, and there were few villages.

Occasionally, they would see a few villages, but without exception, they had been completely destroyed.

But gradually, the villages became more numerous.

However, those villages were all destroyed.

It was evident that this place had been leveled by those infected.

There wasn't a single living person in these villages.

Even the infected were nowhere to be seen; who knows where they hid.

Or perhaps they ran toward Great Qin and were killed; that's also possible.

It's also possible they headed toward the city.

These infected are quite sensitive to places with many people.

Wherever there are many people, they will head there.

The desolation and tragic state along the way undoubtedly stimulated the Great Qin soldiers.

"This Jizi Kingdom is too miserable."

"We must never let these infected enter our country!"

"Otherwise, our country will also become like this; it's too horrible to look at!"

"Our Great Qin has vast territory and a large population."

"If the infected enter Great Qin, the consequences would be unimaginable!"

"This is too terrifying; wherever the infected pass, the people cannot make a living!"

"This plague spreads too fast; once infected, one joins the ranks of the infected."

"This means there will be more and more infected in the future."

"Even if we die, we will never let the infected enter Great Qin!"

The soldiers whispered among themselves.

But without exception, no one wanted to see Great Qin become like this.

If that were to happen, it would be truly difficult to control.

They must block them outside the Great Wall.

Or slaughter them directly.

Otherwise, they dared not imagine what would happen if these infected ran to Great Qin.

What kind of ending would Great Qin have?

There was no need for the higher-ups to give orders.

The soldiers were of one mind and united.

At this moment, their thoughts were very consistent.

Time passed quickly.

The speed of this march was not slow.

Before it was even dark, they arrived at the first city.

This was exactly the city the scarred man said was closest to Great Qin.

However, the moment they saw the city...

... everyone was stunned.
