While things were calm on Wu Gang's side and he could return home safely, Hu Dabiao on the other side was rampaging in a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood.
Just listen to Hu Dabiao shouting: "Brothers, don't panic, hold on...slowly retreat to the north, there is a big house over there!"
All the people in the Guards Department have been promoted to Level 2, and their combat effectiveness is not ordinary.
But no matter how strong their fighting power is, there is an end. Facing the endless influx of zombies, they can only be forced to retreat.
Their physical strength has limits, and they can only last for twenty minutes at full output. They can feel how much physical strength they have.
So far in this round of fighting, they have been winning for fifteen minutes and have killed more than 700 or 800 zombies.
At this moment, zombies were attacking Hu Dabiao's team at the front, back and left, and they were surrounded.
Hu Dabiao has always been unconvinced by Chen Yuhe, but now that he has been promoted to Deputy Hundred Households, he is even more courageous.
Two hundred households of the Guard Department were stationed in Liushan County and attacked Zhenxiguan for a month, but they did not even see the city wall.
They advanced to the closest place to the west gate of the town, nearly five miles away from the gate wall, and could not see the city gate at all under the cover of trees.
At this moment, the team led by Hu Dabiao had advanced along the official road to two miles away from the city gate, and could already vaguely see the city wall ahead.
Of course, he was in trouble at the moment.
"Brothers, you must resist..." Hu Dabiao shouted loudly.
He did it for meritorious service, but if his men suffered casualties, then his military exploits would be worthless.
Ouch...
Groups of zombies, baring their teeth and claws, rushed toward the guards, killing them endlessly.
However, the military quality of the guards is impeccable, and their circular military formation is still intact. Zombies charging from any direction will have their necks chopped off.
Suddenly another guard shouted: "Sir... there is another armor-piercing man here!"
In the military formation, Hu Dabiao, who heard the sound, turned his head and saw the shining figure in the distance.
After approaching in a few steps, Hu Dabiao said, "This is still a thousand households!"
Zhenxiguan is an important town in the northwest. The imperial court specially set up Zhenxi Guards here, which are directly under the management of the Fifth Army Governor's Office. The local governor has no right to mobilize.
"It's still an advanced mutant, it's really difficult to deal with!" Hu Dabiao frowned.
There were two feet between the zombies and the military formation. He was constantly directing the zombies to attack, but he himself stood far away.
"According to the prince's classification, this should be a level two monster. This is already the third one we have encountered..." Hu Dabiao frowned more and more.
Now we are still two miles away from Zhenxiguan, and we can see this kind of monster. I wonder what it will be like if we go further.
He had heard before that Zhao Yanxun had encountered level three monsters in the mountains of Chengde County, so Hu Dabiao had reason to suspect that there might be one in Xiguan, this town.
Otherwise, how could these second-level monsters take the initiative to attack with their minions?
While Hu Dabiao was thinking, there were already guards with bows and arrows, aiming at the zombies in the distance.
With a "whoosh" sound, the arrow whizzed out, but flew past the left shoulder of the zombie and shot through the chest of the zombie behind.
Seeing this situation, Hu Dabiao shouted angrily: "Give me the bow!"
The first-level Baihu Station on the side of the Bingma Division is equipped with swords, shields, spears and archers, and when combined with each other, the combat effectiveness is extremely strong.
On the side of the Guards Division, they are all sword and shield soldiers. Although they have stronger melee combat capabilities, they have no long-range attacks.
Hu Dabiao's shooting skills can actually only be called average, but he is already the best among the guards because he spends more time practicing.
With the bow string fully drawn and looking at the armored zombies dodging in the distance, Hu Dabiao was also complaining in his heart, how the hell could he hit the target?
Even if the shot is successful, it must hit the opponent's neck because there is no armor protection in that area.
With a "swish" sound, the arrow roared out again, and the zombie on the opposite side hid to the right, just as Hu Dabiao's prediction was correct.
With a "squeak" sound, the arrow hit the zombie's neck. Unfortunately, it was still a little off and did not hit from the center, so it failed to damage its nerve center.
But this arrow still frightened the zombie, causing it to move back seven to eight feet.
As soon as he retreated, the attack force of the zombies in front became weaker. Hu Dabiao immediately ordered his men to move towards the north yard.
Everyone broke through the encirclement all the way, and without so many zombies rushing to save their lives, they broke through the encirclement faster.
This can also prove that the zombies that are constantly attacking are caused by the second-level zombies just now.
Soon, they rushed to the courtyard. This place should be a post station, and there were also monsters gathering inside at this moment.
Without thinking, the guards rushed in. The dozens of zombies in the inn could be easily dealt with by them.
With a "bang", the door of the inn was closed, and there were several guards inside to reinforce it.
"Brothers, clean the house first..." Hu Dabiao shouted.
"Yes!" all the guards responded.
It can be heard that their fighting spirit is very high at this moment.
This post station is very big. After all, it is located on the main road of Zhenxiguan. Officials from the northwest have to pass through here, not to mention that the post station also deals with business travel.
At this moment, Hu Dabiao and the others only occupied the southernmost outer courtyard and sealed the gates on all sides.
In this way, the zombies in the north yard will not be able to come over, and they can also buy some to restore their physical strength.
There are doors everywhere in this inn, and no matter how fast they kill, zombies will still pour in, and they won't be able to completely occupy it in a short time.
What's more, Hu Dabiao didn't even know what doors there were in this post station. It would be even more unrealistic to completely occupy the post station.
When everyone was recovering their strength, the survivors in the courtyard at the back heard the noise outside.
Yes, there are survivors in this inn. The innermost courtyard of the inn is actually an official warehouse.
Super-large post stations such as Liushan Post are naturally the most important transfer points. In the 24th year of Tai'an, when troops were deployed in the northwest, most of the military supplies had to pass through this place.
Therefore, a large amount of grain is stored in Liushanyi's official warehouse, which is naturally the best supply base in the last days.
For the more than 30 survivors, they would not be able to finish the food in the post station for ten years. On the contrary, the firewood would have to be used up first.
In the yard, four women were doing laundry, while others were fetching water or making food.
More than a dozen men stood on the wall, holding sticks at different positions to guard.
"What's going on outside? Can you see it?" Some people looked into the distance, but they couldn't see anything because their vision was too poor.
"I didn't see it, why don't you... go over and have a look?" After the person who replied finished speaking, he glanced at the man sitting alone in the courtyard.
In the center of the yard, a man in armor was cleaning his knife and said in a cold voice: "It's not unusual for monsters to go crazy!"
Sheathing the sword and looking at the commotion of the eight men, the man in armor said coldly: "Just stay where you are. If a monster rushes in, none of us will survive!"
At this moment, from one side of the room, a shirtless man came out, with his belt still tied.
This man had scars on his face. While dressing, he said, "I tell you, Zhang Yicheng, your woman is really nice. She is very well-groomed in her forties!"
Hearing this, the man lying on the wall trembled, his eyes covered by his disheveled hair were full of resentment, but he didn't say a word at this time.
At this time, another man came out of another room, but he had already put on his coat.
The man walked up to the armored man, rubbed his hands and said, "Brother, I want to play two next time!"
