The earth is shaking.

More and more small black balls were ignited by the flames. Rumbling sounds resounding through the sky appeared from time to time. Rockets streaked across the sky, and after falling, they gradually spread...

Even the air around seemed to have risen several degrees.

Not long.

The fields have become a sea of ​​fire.

The zombies transformed into human-shaped flames and rushed forward desperately. Muffled roars came from the fire, and the scene was extremely creepy.

The soldiers stared at the scene in amazement, and as the zombies fell on the first line of defense - the pile of rocks, they couldn't help but take a few steps back.

General Chen was so shocked that he was speechless for a long time.

They are both fire attacks, so why is there such a big difference?

They had tried fire attacks before when clearing out monsters.

However, there are many mountains and forests in Zhongshan. Since the chevaux de frise are made of wood, and the monsters are extremely strong, they will wander around after being on fire and pounce on living people... The defense line quickly collapsed during the fire attack, and the casualties caused were more serious than if they had done it themselves.

After learning a lesson, and considering that the forests could easily be ignited due to climate and other factors, they abandoned fire attacks and continued to choose the most primitive way to fight.

Just before the princess came back.

There was once a wave of about 5,000 zombies in Xiaqu County. It took about three days to clear them with manpower alone, and there were heavy casualties.

There were about 10,000 zombies in front of them. The girl and the two gentlemen made a plan to burn them all at once. His soldiers didn't have to do anything except help build defense lines and launch rockets. They just had to watch.

General Chen was thinking carefully about what measures they had taken.

Is it because of the little black ball?

Or is there an extra layer of stone pestle to prevent the fire from spreading?

Or the outermost trench?

He needs to learn something, as it will be useful to Zhongshan in the future.

Wei Xiyin remained calm and composed. "The burning time will be about two quarters of an hour. As long as the defense line can hold out for that period, it will be fine."

Cookie sighed, "The girl is indeed farsighted. It seems that the explosives are indeed not powerful enough. They set up more than ten explosion points, but only killed a very small number of zombies."

The advanced version of the small black balls had been used up in Zhongshan a long time ago. This batch of them are of ordinary power, which is simply a drop in the bucket when facing tens of thousands of zombies.

Chu Yu disagreed and said calmly, "The disadvantage of the little black ball is very obvious. It makes a sound like a loud bell. The more powerful it is, the louder the noise."

He pointed to the scattered zombies drawn in by the noise from all directions, "If you use it at night or in unfamiliar territory, you're likely to be attacked from all sides."

"In Yu's opinion, the power we have now is enough."

It is enough to fan the flames, attract the zombies to the center of the outbreak, and accelerate their demise.

When facing the enemy, deterrence far outweighs harm, and the destructive power is enough to destroy the enemy's confidence.

Wei Xiyin nodded. "You two gentlemen are both right. We will continue to produce the standard-strength ones, and research and development will also continue. We will then use them according to the circumstances."

It's like having cannons and atomic bombs at the same time.

What is worth discussing?

General Chen was confused as he listened. What was going on? Was he complaining that the little black ball was not powerful enough?

If you think it’s too small, you can give it all to him, he won’t mind!

General Chen shook his head and sighed, thinking that they were ungrateful for what they had. He honestly arranged for people to clean up the scattered zombies coming towards them.

Ever since the princess, oh no, the prince and the girl called these monsters zombies, it seemed like everyone got used to using this name overnight and didn't feel awkward at all.

The stones piled up in the field seemed unable to withstand the high temperature. Black flakes appeared on the surface, turning it pitch black. Some of them made crackling sounds, began to crack, and slowly broke into small pieces.

The zombie, covered in flames, finally pushed down the stone pestle and came to the first fence built with chevaux de frise.

The dead wood used for the chevaux de frise was quickly ignited after being exposed to the scorching sun for a long time.

The fire is getting bigger and bigger...

The soldiers of the right vanguard battalion who were observing the situation around them couldn't help but swallow nervously and got ready to meet the enemy at any time.

Wei Xiyin and the two gentlemen were very calm and were discussing the matter of customizing horse armor for a hundred war horses.

Chu Yu started off by saying, "The armor used by war horses probably needs to be redesigned."

Cookie immediately became interested after hearing this. "In the past, only vests were used to protect the horse's belly. If we want to modify the horse armor, it's best to make a full set of horse armor. The weight should be considered. Horses can be used to transport food and grass. If the armor is too heavy, they can't pull much at a time."

Wei Xiyin didn't want to think at the moment, "Just go back and give it to cousin Ting, see if he has any ideas, and then we can discuss it."

As she spoke, she looked at Cookie with a smile on her face. "If Mr. Qu is interested, he can think about how to design it in advance, and then discuss the customization with Cousin Ting when he returns. I'm sure with Mr. Qu's talent, he will be able to come up with a perfect plan."

Cookie's mouth twitched slightly when he heard this, as if he had been fooled...

Isn't this just looking for trouble for yourself?

Cookie couldn't help but look at Chu Yu. He was staring at the zombie horde in front of him with a calm expression, as if it had nothing to do with him.

It was he who brought up the topic of making horse armor. Considering how sinister Mr. Chu was, Cookie suspected that he did it on purpose.

After being away for a few days, Chu Yu must be very busy when he returns.

He is busy with his own affairs and can't bear to see others have a good time.

Cookie said that he has a lot to do!

He had to go back and produce two thousand explosives to help the girl pay off her debt - the debt she owed to Zhongshan State for buying horses.

Wei Xiyin was calm and said that she knew nothing and that it would be fine as long as someone did the job. To her, it didn't matter who did it, right?

The atmosphere between the three of them suddenly became very subtle.

When General Chen came back, he saw the girl and the two gentlemen staring at the "battlefield" without blinking, and thought they were worried that the zombies would break through the defense line.

Seeing this, he felt better.

I thought they had everything planned out, but it turns out they also have moments of worry.

Four people stand in a row, each thinking about his own things. Obviously they have different thoughts and are not related at all, but the picture is unusually harmonious.

The farmland was engulfed in flames.

When the first line of chevaux de frise began to crumble, the zombies finally began to fall down in rows, the fire on their bodies still burning. Some of them were still twitching on the ground, trying to struggle to get up, but their efforts were in vain and they gradually became unable to move.

A while later.

There was no more movement in the field, only the flames that had not yet burned out and thick smoke in the sky.

Wei Xiyin spoke at the right time, "It's still early. Let's find some more rocks, prepare to continue cutting down trees, repair the defense line, and wait for the second wave of zombies to arrive."

The temperature in the farmland is very high now, so we can only prepare the explosives after the scouts bring back the news.

The soldiers took orders and started to get busy again.

Rather than risking their lives to rush to the front, they would rather cut down some trees and make more chevaux de frise.

It was the first time that everyone felt that clearing out zombies was such an easy task.
