Chapter 1709

~4 min read 799 words

Everyone formed a circle.

And they were the exit here, while there was water everywhere else.

Only here was land.

If those infected were really afraid of water.

Then this really is an excellent foothold.

But he was somewhat skeptical.

"Did you give up on yourselves because you couldn't find a foothold?"

"Are those infected really afraid of water?"

Meng Tian looked at Han Xin in doubt.

He wanted to see something from his face.

But Han Xin did nothing but laugh.

Not anxious at all; it's estimated it's true.

Otherwise, how could he laugh.

"Rest assured, this is true."

"If you don't believe it, go ask His Highness yourself later."

Upon hearing this, Meng Tian's inner anxiety lessened a lot.

If His Highness said so.

Then this matter is nine times out of ten true.

"Don't just stand there."

"His Highness said so."

"Start setting up the defense line when you arrive."

"As long as you defend this place of less than two hundred li."

"Tonight will be absolutely safe."

Han Xin pointed to the ground under his feet.

"That's easy to say."

Meng Tian waved his hand.

The infantry who came with him immediately started to act.

They started to set up defenses in the place less than two hundred meters away.

Things like carriages and heavy shields were placed here.

Blocking this location tightly.

The defense line also officially started to be set up.

At this time.

Ying Ying Zi Ye walked back.

Seeing so many people busy, he smiled.

They were really on the ball, starting to set up defenses all of a sudden.

But he thought of a better method.

"Are you setting up a defense line?"

Seeing His Highness return, Han Xin hurriedly saluted.

He originally wanted to give His Highness a surprise.

Seeing that the defense was about to be completed.

Who knew His Highness would return.

It seems this surprise couldn't be given.

"Your Highness, we are building a defense line!"

"It will be finished soon!"

Seeing His Highness arrive, Han Xin stopped the work in his hands.

Meng Tian also came over to say hello.

"Stop for a moment."

"This defense project won't be built."

Ying Ying Zi Ye called a halt to this defense line.

Because he thought of a better method.

Just now he was measuring the field.

So he didn't notice when Meng Tian arrived.

Until this defense line started to be built.

Uh uh uh...

Meng Tian and the other were stunned after hearing this.

How can it be okay not to build a defense line?

"Your Highness, why?"

Although Meng Tian was puzzled, he still ordered people to notify them not to build the defense line first.

Otherwise, what to do if it's wasted later.

"Yes, Your Highness, why not do it?"

"If we don't build a defense line, what to do when it gets dark?"

Han Xin was also puzzled, full of doubts.

The other generals also noticed the problem here.

I don't know why His Highness suddenly changed his mind again.

It's about to get dark, and it will be too late to set it up at night.

"Think about it, these carriages and shields are not city walls after all."

"This place is not far from those cities."

"If many infected come, it will be enough to break through the defense line in less than a stick of incense."

"In that case, wouldn't the defense project be done in vain?"

Ying Ying Zi Ye's words attracted the attention of the surrounding soldiers.

They thought about it, and it was indeed the case.

This place is too close to the city.

At night, those infected will come out to forage.

And with so many people here, they will definitely attract those infected.

It's fine if fewer people come; they can hold on.

But if many infected rush over regardless of their lives, who can hold on?

"His Highness's words make a lot of sense."

"We have all experienced the madness of those infected."

"If the number is very large, we definitely won't be able to hold on."

"Before in the canyon, not many infected attacked."

"But they almost broke through the defense line."

"Their bloodthirsty madness, immense strength, and never-ending fatigue."

"Human power may not be able to deal with them, unless they are all killed in one blow."

"But it's so hard to kill in one blow; this is a bit impossible."

"Can't say it's impossible, just that it's possible when the numbers are right."

"If they rush up in a swarm, we definitely won't be able to resist."

"Then what should we do?"

"Are we not setting up a defense line directly?"

"We don't know what to do, maybe His Highness knows."

"Yes, yes, yes, this is something His Highness said."
