Chapter 1723 Escape
The undead puppet quickly arrived at the moat of Cuiping Town and jumped into the moat without any hesitation.
The moat is not a stagnant water, it is connected to the big river outside the city, so the water flow in the moat is still very fast. Some of the skeleton undead puppets, who were thin and relatively fragile, were washed away by the rushing moat water as soon as they jumped into the moat.
The undead puppets with some strength tried to jump over the moat, but the undead puppets were next to each other and there was not enough space, and the moat was relatively wide, so not many could actually jump over the moat.
However, the number of undead puppets was too huge. After many undead puppets jumped into the moat, the flow rate of the moat water was slowed down. Then densely packed undead puppets crowded into the river, and the undead puppets behind them continued to step on the moat. The body of the undead puppet in it crossed the moat.
After crossing the moat, the undead puppet still had to face tall city walls and heavy city gates. Some undead puppets armed with heavy weapons launched attacks on the city walls and gates. However, at their speed, if they want to break through the city wall or gate, they probably won't be able to do it for a while.
On the contrary, some skilled undead puppets tried to climb up the city wall. It seemed that they should be much faster than the undead puppets attacking the city walls and gates.
Li Zhenbang and Long Miaomiao did not follow the army of undead puppets all the time. They slowly weaved in and out of the army of undead puppets and soon arrived under the city wall. new
Li Zhenbang and Long Miaomiao didn't want to follow the others into the city. They also wanted to find the Tu Emperor, and possibly even someone, so they had to enter the city before others, and it was best to go there. Before the undead golem.
Otherwise, once the undead puppets invade Cuiping Town, the strong rebel coalition forces will know that Cuiping Town is an empty city. By then, Li Zhenbang and Long Miaomiao will have much less room for maneuver. What they want is to beat this time difference.
In order to prevent the undead puppets from climbing the wall, Li Zhenbang even secretly used five-series magic to attack the undead puppets who climbed up the wall in turn, and even launched some attacks on those who followed the undead puppets.
Li Zhenbang did this not only to prevent the undead puppets and rebel forwards from entering Cuiping Town, but also to give the rebel coalition forces who were watching the battle an illusion that the people in Cuiping Town were still resisting, so that those outside who were still watching The strong men in the rebel coalition did not dare to act rashly.
It has to be said that Li Zhenbang's approach did achieve the results he hoped for. At least none of the semi-saints and saint-level experts tried to take action, and no one tried to explore the city of Cuiping Town.
There are many saint-level powerhouses in Cuiping Town. If a person acts rashly alone, he is likely to stay on top of the city. Even the saint-level powerhouses of the undead clan do not dare to take risks easily.
In their opinion, Cuiping Town just doesn't have long-range bows and arrows that can hurt people, and heavy crossbows, but there are still magicians guarding the city, and even saint-level powerhouses are stationed in Cuiping Town. It is obviously not a matter of time to attack the city.
The undead people finally took action. Even if they let the undead puppets attack the city, it is still better than using living people to attack the city.
Although Li Zhenbang and Long Miaomiao wanted to be the first to enter the city, they were not in a hurry. Although the current restraint was a great test for Li Zhenbang's mental strength, Li Zhenbang had no intention of stopping.
It's not that Li Zhenbang and Long Miaomiao are not in a hurry, but that they are waiting for the best opportunity, or waiting for news from the Tu Emperor. Li Zhenbang does this to buy time for the Tu Emperor.
In about one stick of incense, Li Zhenbang got the news about Tu Di. The entire Cuiping Town was deserted. Not only were there no people, not even a single poultry or livestock was left. As for the food, it was completely wiped out. At this time, Cuiping Town had completely turned into an empty city, and even more so. Don't tell us any clues about Li Zhenbang's father.
After Li Zhenbang got the news, he felt a little better. As Long Miaomiao said, no news may be the best news.
Li Zhenbang and Long Miaomiao both gathered under the city wall and followed the undead puppets as they climbed towards the top of the city. Various magics exploded around them, which seemed extremely dangerous. Many undead puppets around them were shot down by magic.
Just when they were less than two meters away from the city head, the two people looked at each other, their bodies suddenly accelerated, and they crossed the city head and fell into Cuiping Town.
Tu Di had been waiting here for a long time, and directly pulled them into the ground, directly entering the secret passage that Zhao Tianlong and the others used to escape.
People outside were stunned when they saw someone scaling the city wall. Instead of getting stronger, the attacks in Cuiping Town all disappeared in an instant.
On the other side, Mark Green was leading his men to leave Cuiping Town. The people guarding the edge of Cuiping Town’s shield saw that Mark Green was leading the people to leave, and wanted to chat for a few words, but Mark Green looked impatient. , made an appointment to have dinner and pick up girls together when they were free in the future, and then left through the open gap.
Mark Green naturally did not choose the exit at will. Directly below this gap is the location of a passage to the outside of Cuiping Town, and Li Zhenbang and the others have already made preparations here.
The moment the gap opened, Li Zhenbang and his party quickly passed through the gap and left Cuiping Town without anyone noticing.
At this time, the rebel coalition saw that the Undead Puppet had successfully boarded the city. It seemed that there was no danger. They had just begun to charge towards Cuiping Town...
"Your Majesty, now that the Carlo Empire is at war, where are we going?" A dirty old man with a white beard next to Zhao Tianlong looked at Zhao Tianlong nervously. There is a white lily embroidered on the old man's clothes. He is obviously a member of the white lily family.
"Go back to Carlo City!" Zhao Tianlong said firmly.
Carlo City has the foundation accumulated by the Carlo Empire for generations, and has many powerful people who worship it. If even Carlo City is not safe, then the Carlo Empire will have no place to stay.
"Go back to Carlo City?" The old man looked at Zhao Tianlong in astonishment, "Your Majesty, if it's just us, it's not difficult to go back to Carlo City, but we have to bring the residents of Cuiping Town back to Carlo City. City, I’m afraid it won’t be that easy!”
"Asshole! What are you talking about? These are the people of my Carlo Empire. Do you want me to abandon my subjects and go on my own?" Zhao Tianlong glared and yelled.
"Your Majesty, if you insist on taking the people with you, I suggest that you take some people back to Carlo City first, and then leave some officers and soldiers to escort the people to Carlo City. Your safety is related to the entire Carlo Empire. Destiny! As long as you are still there, the Carlo Empire will still be there! But if something happens to you, the Carlo Empire will cease to exist!" The old man knelt down directly in front of Zhao Tianlong.
"Nonsense! How could I abandon my people and escape back to Carlo City alone? They followed me out of Cuiping Town without any regrets, so I must ensure their safety! I absolutely cannot escape alone!" Zhao Tianlong said He rolled his sleeves and shook his head.
"Your Majesty, this is not an escape, this is to win the final victory! Hou Guangzu is tyrannical and the undead tribe is indiscriminate in killing. We must not let them succeed! The Carlo Empire cannot live without you! Your Majesty, you must think twice! "The old man shouted loudly.
"Your Majesty, please think again!" All the people around Zhao Tianlong knelt down to persuade him. Obviously, they all supported the old man.
"Your Majesty, I will definitely not tolerate my own life! I am willing to stay and escort the people of Cuiping Town. As long as I am still alive, I will definitely escort them to Carlo City!" The old man bowed down to Zhao Tianlong again.
"Nonsense! You are just a civil servant. If you stay to escort the people, isn't that a joke? Do you really think that our Carlo Empire has no one?" Zhao Tianlong angrily rebuked.
"Your Majesty, let me stay!" A middle-aged man walked out of the crowd. This man had gray hair and gloomy eyes. He was wearing a red maple leaf embroidered on his clothes. He was Li Chenyun, the third elder of the Hong Maple Leaf family. .
"As a member of the Red Maple Leaf family, I naturally have my duty to protect the rear!" Li Chenyun said in a deep voice.
Li Chenyun originally didn't want to stand up, but Zhao Tianlong had already said this. For the honor of the family, he had to stand up even if he didn't want to.
"Third Elder, it's better... I'll do it!" Another person sat up from the stretcher, his face a little pale, but his eyes were very bright.
This person is none other than Li Zhenbang's father, the eighth elder of the Hong Maple Leaf family and the commander of the Imperial Guard Li Qishan.
Li Qishan was indeed injured, and the injury was not serious, but after this period of recovery, the injury has improved a lot.
Originally, Li Qishan did not need to be carried and could walk on his own. However, Li Qishan's injury was not healed after all. In order to allow Li Qishan to recover as soon as possible, Li Chenyun forced Li Qishan to carry out the order of the great elder and forced Li Qishan to lie on the stretcher.
Li Chenyun thought more comprehensively. In order not to cause any criticism, the people carrying the stretcher were not soldiers from the Carlo Empire, but people from the Red Maple Leaf family took turns to carry it.
"Nonsense! Your current physical condition is simply a burden. Let alone covering others, you have to be covered yourself!" Li Chenyun scolded.
"Great Elder, I know my physical condition well. Although I have not fully recovered, it is not as bad as you said. Moreover, I am the commander of the Imperial Guard, so it is natural for me to share your Majesty's worries." Li Qishan shook his head.
Just as the two of them were arguing, the old man from the Bai Baihe family suddenly interjected angrily: "Since you are all so loyal to the army and serving the country, why don't you all stay and share His Majesty's worries?"
The two people looked at the old man at the same time, with a trace of anger flashing in their eyes.
The old man looked at the two of them indifferently, not taking them seriously at all.
"Your Majesty, someone is coming!" A gorgeously dressed man next to Zhao Tianlong suddenly whispered to Zhao Tianlong. Remember the website address of this website, www. Biquxu. Com for easy reading next time, or enter " " in Baidu to enter this site
