The eleventh day of the siege of Chasing Light City.
In fact, this day can no longer be regarded as a siege, but a battle of annihilation.
After all, there are still many zombies outside the city that need to be exterminated. The Light Chasing Army has been continuously eliminating and cleaning them up since yesterday.
It was not until the afternoon of the eleventh day that, with the cooperation of all branches of the Light-Chasing Army, the last armor fell, and the siege was truly over.
After that, there will be a long cleanup period, which is estimated to last at least a week to complete.
Collecting funds and burning corpses, the soldiers of the Light Chasing Army are still busy.
But Tang Zheng doesn't need to be busy anymore, his main work is basically over.
There is still about 48 million in funds received from the city of Lombard.
After clearing up the zombies outside the city, he estimates that he can still get more than 10 million in funds. By then, it will not be a big problem if the funds exceed 60 million.
Tang Zheng, now at leisure, didn't even have time to watch the news or see the reactions from all parties. Instead, he directly chose to go back to the official residence to sleep.
In the past ten days, he had slept even less than ordinary soldiers. He could only sleep an average of three hours a day. No matter how good his physical fitness was, he was extremely tired after ten days.
I fell asleep and slept for forty hours.
I also woke up hungry. I got up, ate a meal, and then slept for more than ten hours before I recovered.
When I woke up again, three days had passed since I first fell asleep.
Returning to the dining table, Tang Zheng ate slowly this time while listening to the correspondent's report.
"General, after the siege, Liu Yibang spoke on TV news and sent you a congratulatory message on behalf of Her Royal Highness the Princess. In the congratulatory message, the princess greatly praised you and the Light Chasing Army for fighting bravely and defeating the 20 million corpses. , and in order to commend and encourage you for your great achievements, we have sent people to send 2,000 tons of fuel, 100,000 bags of rice, and 10 tons of gold to reward the soldiers and civilians who have worked so hard. The supplies have now left Yuanjing, and it is estimated that it will take ten days. Arrive at Chasing Light City within a few seconds.”
"Oh, there are actually ten tons of gold. Her Royal Highness has really spent a lot of money this time."
Tang Zheng felt very happy when he heard that ten tons of gold were worth 10 million yuan. This increased the spare funds in his hand.
"Call back to Her Highness the Princess and say that on behalf of the soldiers and people of Zhuguang City, I would like to thank Her Highness for your righteous deed."
"Okay General."
"Is there any movement elsewhere?"
"There is basically no such thing in the country. Several surrounding armies have remained silent on this matter. No one has expressed any opinions."
Tang Zheng snorted: "They are all powerful people. They know that it will not benefit them to go against me at this moment, so they stopped talking. In fact, not talking is an attitude in itself. If they are willing to be on good terms with me, then they Congratulations are long overdue.”
"General, there seems to be some movement in Daliao recently."
"What's the movement?"
"It seems that a five-nation summit is being held in Daliao. People from the Bauhinia Empire, Hansen Empire, Jialan Kingdom, and Magic Lamp Kingdom have been invited to Daliao to discuss alliance matters. The summit has already been held. , it is said that a joint military exercise will be held before spring comes."
When Tang Zheng heard these names, he immediately took the map to check.
These four countries are all located in the western region of Hanyue. Although they are not as large as Hanyue and Daliao, they are not small, and their military strength is good.
Although their territories are not bordered by Tang Zheng's Northern Territory, two of them are bordered by Mobei.
If you start from their country, you can quickly reach the Shazhou City in Mobei as long as you pass through the desert area of Mobei.
Shazhou City is only a thousand kilometers away from the border checkpoint set up by Tang Zheng for land enclosure.
Tang Zheng said with some confusion: "Can Ferdinand invite them on behalf of Daliao?"
"General, during this period, it seems that the Daliao royal family gave Ferdinand a prince's title and put him in charge of the central and southern theater of Daliao. Now there are several survivor bases under Ferdinand's control. Now His strength has been greatly improved compared to the past, at least in terms of personnel, his foundation is already very strong, and the population under his jurisdiction is not much less than ours."
"Oh! It seems that a lot of things happened during the past few days while I was sleeping. Is there anything else?"
"No, that's probably all. The other armies are very quiet. Their news during this period is all about trivial things. It seems like nothing major happened."
Tang Zheng nodded, feeling a little wary.
Nothing is impossible, nothing is impossible for everyone, and that in itself is an unusual thing.
As for what other group armies are brewing, Tang Zheng can't control it now, and he doesn't want to.
Since the siege ended, his thoughts began to fly to the coastal areas.
He cannot stay in the Northern Territory for too long. There are several reasons. One is that he cannot develop a navy without being close to the sea.
One is that the population is not enough for him to upgrade to division commander.
Therefore, if you want to continue upgrading, moving to coastal areas is inevitable.
But before that, he still had to do some things. The first was to stabilize the situation and bring everything under his jurisdiction into order.
There is another worry, that is Daliao Volcano City. After all, Volcano City is very close to his territory. It is best to solve this problem before leaving.
There was another thing that made Tang Zheng a little worried.
That is the disappearance of the little corpse girl.
The little corpse girl ran away without a trace, and no one knew where she went.
Tang Zheng had an instinctive intuition. He felt that the little corpse girl had suffered this setback and would not be able to come back in a short time.
But this is also a hidden worry after all, but for this matter, what he can do now is to improve his strength as soon as possible, so that even if the little corpse girl comes again after a while, he doesn't have to be afraid.
"Go and call Guo Yun and see if he has any research results these days?"
For the army to progress, technological improvement is necessary. I hope Guo Yun can give himself a surprise.
The far southeast of Chasing Light City.
It is five thousand kilometers away from Zhuguang City and is located in a province southeast of Hanyue.
The white swan that the little corpse girl was sitting on could no longer fly.
The little corpse girl looked at the ground. Below was a huge city.
She didn't know where this place was, but judging from the wind blowing around and the temperature, this was definitely not the Northern Region.
Because compared to the severe cold in the northern region, it is obviously warmer here.
Many of her current thoughts still come from before the end of the world.
Before the apocalypse, she was a five-year-old girl with a not very mature mind. After the apocalypse, except for the side that a corpse king should have, she was still the same five-year-old girl in other aspects.
But she is a relatively smart kid and knows some basic things.
For example, the south is warmer and the north is colder.
So she knew now that she had arrived in the south.
She also knew that the greater population in the south would allow her to quickly restore the power of her Corpse King and control more subordinates.
From the back of the white swan, she could see that the city was huge and there should be many zombies.
So she made the decision to settle here and make it her home.
Although in her heart, she felt that this place was not home, but when she became the Corpse King, she no longer had a real home or family.
The warm impression of her mother was just a symbol in her heart.
So wherever she settles, that's her home.
The driving white swan landed in this city.
After it fell, it was indeed warmer than in the northern region. It felt like the end of winter, but not to the point of spring.
The little corpse girl landed on the central street of the city.
With the special ability of the Zombie King, she could feel that the city was full of zombies, many of them.
This is a city that has not been recaptured by humans, or in other words, this is a city without humans.
The little corpse girl was very confident at the moment. She was far away from the human named Tang Deng, and her confidence returned. As long as she summoned her men, no one could threaten her.
Therefore, she immediately issued the call of the Corpse King.
With a sharp cry, sound waves reverberate in the city, and zombies within a few kilometers will be attracted to her.
But, she failed!
The little corpse girl was stunned. She had never failed. Even when she summoned Chen Feilong, the corpse king was instantly conquered by her because their powers were very different.
But this time she failed, unbelievably.
She didn't believe in evil and summoned again, but it still failed.
The zombies here are not under her control at all. There is an invisible force that blocks her summons.
That's another Corpse King!
Being able to resist his own summons proves that the other Corpse King is also very powerful.
The little corpse girl was a little unconvinced, because she clearly knew that her power was also the strongest among the corpse kings, but she didn't expect to meet her opponent.
Her temper was a little out of control, and she issued the summons for the third time.
This time, as soon as her summons was sent out, there was a collision with another force.
The little corpse girl felt a little dizzy. The power seemed to be stronger than her!
The little corpse girl suddenly showed a look of horror. She really didn't expect that there was a corpse king stronger than her here.
She immediately thought of Chen Feilong being controlled by herself. She didn't want to be controlled by this corpse king.
The little corpse girl immediately drove the white swan, which was still under her control, to take off and leave.
But something even more unexpected happened to her.
The white swan is no longer under her control.
The white swan that was originally docile in front of her now showed its fierce look, flapping its huge wings and causing a strong wind.
The little corpse girl was scared.
Although she is the zombie king, her combat power is pitifully weak unless she controls the zombies.
The white swan in front of him is a mutated bird. If he wants to kill himself, it will only take a matter of minutes.
Her hands and feet were cold, unable to resist at all, and she had no idea what to do.
But the white swan looked at her condescendingly for a while, and did not kill her. Instead, it stretched out its long neck and came to her side.
The huge beak came out and grabbed her neck.
The scarf with the words "There is love in the world, I love Tang Zheng the most" was just snatched away by the white swan.
With this scarf, the white swan flapped its wings and took off into the sky, apparently to give it to its new owner.
