Chapter 518 Ling Yi’s worries
But on the other hand, Ling Yi has been paying attention to the movements in the imperial capital.
When he found out that his suggestion had been fully accepted by No. 1, he couldn't help but secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
However, through the actions of cleaning up zombie corpses in the imperial capital, Ling Yi also discovered a problem.
At this moment, he frowned as he looked at the corpses visible to the naked eye.
Unconsciously, there was a trace of uneasiness lingering in his heart.
Ling Yi realized that although this suggestion was adopted, it did not mean that the situation was completely under control.
He knows that this is just one step in the game, and the future trend will still be full of variables.
The tension in Ling Yi's heart has not completely dissipated. The reaction of the zombie tide is really weird.
Under the control of the men in black robes, the zombie tide did not attack the city wall as stubbornly as before. Instead, after attacking the city wall, they suddenly turned around and retreated in an orderly manner.
This abnormal behavior made Ling Yi's doubts even more serious.
It was as if the calm before the storm foreshadowed something more terrifying to come.
Ling Yi kept thinking about some of the behaviors and habits of zombies.
In the past years, the zombie horde has always been very ferocious and stubborn.
Like a raging tide, it mercilessly devoured everything that stood in its way.
In the past, when I encountered those black-robed men raising corpses, they could also control zombie attacks.
But basically they are rushing towards death, with no possibility of retreat.
However, the scale of this zombie wave was so huge that even if it razed the imperial capital to the ground, it would only be a matter of time.
However, with such an absolute advantage, the man in black robe decisively ordered the zombies to retreat.
This had to make Ling Yi wonder whether the man in black robe also had his own unique laws and emotions.
Or maybe there is another purpose behind this hiding.
This assumption shocked him. He had always believed that zombies were just some kind of heartless creatures.
And those men in black robes are just half-human, half-corpse corpse chasers.
But now it seems that things are not as simple as they seem.
Behind this dark force, there must be a more important secret hidden, which is what Ling Yi urgently wants to know at this moment.
Recalling the unexpected order from the man in black robe before, Ling Yi felt extremely weird.
You know, millions of zombies are under the command of wise men in black robes.
In such a situation, there is no need to organize troops at all. Even the most inexperienced commander knows how to destroy the city and build the stronghold happily.
However, the man in black robe made a speechless move and actually made this huge zombie army retreat. This is really puzzling.
Ling Yi couldn't understand the black-robed man's decision, and the doubts in his heart made him even more worried.
Ling Yi began to think about why the zombies did not use a mix of high-level and low-level zombie legions when they attacked the city.
If the men in black robes used a mixture of high-level and low-level zombie legions to capture the imperial capital wall with no effort at all, then why?
This question made Ling Yi think deeply. Was the man in black robe deliberately conserving his strength, or was he brewing a new crisis?
These complicated problems made him begin to feel that the situation in the battle to defend the imperial capital was becoming more and more critical.
The current tide of corpses, under the command of the man in black robe, was like a cat playing with a mouse.
Rats flexibly shuttled through the narrow alleys, as if they were playing a game of life and death.
The cat, on the other hand, was leisurely and contented, watching its every tiny movement intently.
In this silent duel, who can have the last laugh, and who can play with who?
Ling Yi began to have new doubts about the attack and defense of the imperial capital city wall.
He understood that this city wall was the last line of defense for the imperial capital.
But facing the crazy offensive of the zombie tide, he couldn't help but begin to doubt whether the imperial city wall could really withstand this hellish force.
The guards on the city wall may be brave, but are they just insignificant feathers?
Ling Yi began to wonder if there was some kind of fatal weakness on the city wall.
The man in black robe is observing silently in secret. Is he beginning to peek at these weaknesses?
Strive to kill with one strike and capture the walls of the imperial capital at the minimum cost.
There is another point that makes Ling Yi puzzled, and that is the reaction of the current zombie wave.
When the imperial guards came out of the city to clean up the zombie corpses, the man in black robe didn't even react at all.
This was in sharp contrast to the previous attack on the city wall.
This made Ling Yi start to wonder if his guess was wrong.
The man in black robe had never thought about using the corpses of low-level zombies to climb the city wall.
Ling Yi slowly realized that this strange battle might be far beyond his imagination.
What he can do now is perhaps to have a deeper understanding of the reasons behind this before he can make the next decision.
“It’s really a headache if you don’t play your cards according to the routine!”
After shaking his dizzy head, Ling Yi put his forehead with one hand and sighed.
Lan Xinyue stood beside him quietly and comforted softly.
"In this case, maybe the only option is to give it a try!
Maybe we can cover the retreat of everyone in the imperial capital.
There is no threat to the south at all now, and it is not surrounded by the zombie tide. "
Hearing Lan Xinyue's words, Ling Yi shook his head slightly, and then responded.
"This is not advisable. If you take this path, it is no different from destroying yourself.
The current situation in the imperial capital is like a siege in ancient times.
The strategy of the zombie tide is not to surround three buildings!
This is a psychological tactic, specifically during a siege.
Don't besiege the city, because if the enemy is deeply surrounded, has nowhere to run, and sees no way out, he will definitely resist desperately.
If you want to make the opponent despair, you must first give him hope. This so-called besieger must be lacking.
Maybe, the man in black robe controlling the zombies is just waiting for the emperor to flee without a fight!
Moreover, evacuation cannot be accomplished overnight.
Many of the hundreds of thousands of people in the imperial capital are families.
Evacuating such a huge urban population cannot be completed in a short time. It requires orderly and organized transfers.
If they retreat en masse, they are fleeing. In the absence of various supplies, there will be a wave of corpses chasing behind them.
Can you imagine what would happen? It would be a disaster. The fugitives would either starve to death on the road or be driven to death by waves of corpses.
At that time, the innocent escapees from the imperial capital will wander in this desolate land, longing for a glimmer of life.
The screams of the victims would often ring through the ears, as if they were a never-ending warning of danger in this area. "
When Lan Xinyue heard this, her eyes showed fear of the unknown fate.
It was as if the whole world was telling her the hopeless truth.
Her body trembled slightly, but she tried hard to find a glimmer of hope to guide her out of this gloomy place of fear.
