Wang Zong claimed that he was running away and that his guards were withdrawing, which indeed proved that he was a kind man.
Zhao Yanxun could not bear to hate such a kind and loyal subordinate, even though he might be a little less capable.
"Okay, you don't have to blame yourself too much. You can only blame the three guards for their bad luck. I can't blame you for this!"
After being helped up by Zhao Yanxun again, Wang Zongcai said: "Your Majesty, those monsters are still there. I don't know how to deal with them?"
Zhao Yanxun waved his hand, signaling Wang Zong to go down and rest.
Before leaving, Wang Zong still emphasized: "Your Majesty, I know that place. If you want to destroy those monsters, Your Majesty must not forget to let me accompany you!"
Nodding, Zhao Yanxun said calmly: "Go and rest first!"
After Wang Zong left, Zhao Yanxun said in a deep voice: "Go and call Huang Zhongchang and Xu Hongda over!"
Huang Zhongchang was the master of engineering, and his men were making armor day and night, while Xu Hong was in charge of the hundreds of guards.
Based on Wang Zong's description just now, Xue Baoyun roughly guessed that her husband wanted to take action against those monsters.
This made Xue Baoyun worried. Just listening to Wang Zong's description just now, he knew that those monsters were very difficult to deal with.
At this moment, Zhao Yanxun had already entered the main hall.
"My beloved, today's soup is very good. If there is nothing else, you should go back first!"
"Your Majesty, are you going to go in person?" Xue Baojun couldn't help but ask.
"Everything is fine, it's no big deal to go and take a look, my beloved concubine... go back first!"
Xue Baoyun originally wanted to offer some words of advice as the daughter of a rich man could not sit down in the hall, but seeing Zhao Yanxun's increasingly grim expression, she knew that it was useless to say more.
"My lord, you must not take any risks!"
After giving a final warning, Xue Baoyun left with the maid.
Zhao Yanxun had to go there, not only to use the system to upgrade himself, but also to catch more "live" zombies.
Why do we need to capture them alive? Because Zhao Yanxun wants to bring the zombies back to the capital and show them to the powerful people in Longyou.
The zombie imprisoned in the palace did not have a strong impact, and it was almost "dead" by the imperial doctors' experiments.
After sitting back on the chair, Zhao Yanxun only waited for a few minutes before Huang Zhongchang and Xu Hong arrived in the hall.
After saluting, Zhao Yanxun asked Huang Zhongchang: "How many sets of armor have you made so far?"
"Reporting back to the prince, we have sent more manpower behind us and are more skilled in craftsmanship. We can make armors much faster... So far we have eight pairs!"
While answering the questions, Huang Zhongchang also did not forget to show his merit.
Zhao Yanxun had seen the first armor made by Gongzheng with his own eyes, and it was almost the same as the one brought from the capital.
Eight pairs of armor, plus the ten pairs that have been distributed to hundreds of households, add up to a total of eighteen pairs.
In other words, the team that Zhao Yanxun brought out to clean up the zombies this time, including him, totaled eighteen people.
"Okay, go and prepare the armor. The guards will come to pick it up soon!" Zhao Yanxun said in a deep voice.
After Huang Zhongchang left, Zhao Yanxun looked at Xu Hong standing below.
"Have you heard about Wang Zong?" Zhao Yanxun asked.
Xu Hong nodded. Wang Zong came back early today, and a group of people were in shock, so Xu Hong inquired about it himself.
"Those monsters must be dealt with, otherwise the consequences will be endless!" Zhao Yanxun looked serious.
We should also be thankful that this is an agricultural era, and there is not close communication between villages, otherwise zombies would have exploded.
But even so, this matter cannot be delayed, otherwise things will change if it is too late.
"What I mean is that while killing these monsters, we also need to capture some alive!"
Zhao Yanxun told his request. Xu Hong was slightly surprised when he heard this, but then he understood Zhao Yanxun's intention.
"Does the prince want to show it to the civil servants?" Xu Hong asked tentatively.
"That's right!"
After nodding, Zhao Yanxun continued: "Normal cooperation will not work, so just throw the truth in their faces!"
Xu Hong then said: "Don't worry, Your Majesty, I will leave this matter to you. I will not disappoint Your Majesty!"
Picking up the tea cup, Zhao Yanxun said in a deep voice: "I will lead the team myself!"
"Your Highness wants to go in person?" Xu Hong's face turned green when he heard this.
This job is extremely dangerous, and Xu Hong is not so bold as to let Zhao Yanxun take risks.
Zombies can be infected by touching them. If you ask Zhao Yanxun if he is afraid, then he is a little afraid.
But what's the use of being afraid? If you're afraid, zombies won't chase you and bite you?
In this end of the world, only when you are strong is the right thing to do, so Zhao Yanxun must go this time.
"For this trip, tell the outside world that we are going on a hunting trip, and we will select twenty guards from your subordinates to serve as support staff!"
"As for killing monsters, let the top fifteen guards from the last guard competition be responsible!"
After Zhao Yanxun made arrangements, Xu Hong could only nod in agreement. He had already done what needed to be done.
About half an hour later, when Zhao Yanxun was putting on his armor, the two chief ministers of the palace came over.
They had just received the news, so they rushed over immediately to stop Zhao Yanxun from coming here.
"Your Highness, if a gentleman does not build a dangerous wall, how can you put yourself in danger?" Zhou Chengping looked serious.
The armor is made of iron. When worn in full, the body can be tightly wrapped. After wearing the helmet, only the face and hands are exposed.
This kind of armor can effectively prevent zombies from biting and grabbing, allowing soldiers to kill zombies under strict protection.
The only drawback is that it is too heavy, weighing more than fifty kilograms, making it difficult for most people to move around in it.
But Zhao Yanxun does not have this problem. After the system has been strengthened, wearing armor has no effect on him.
The physical fitness of the selected soldiers is also extremely good, so this armor will not have much impact on them.
In fact, all the guards in the palace have very good physical foundations, which makes Zhao Yanxu grateful to the generous emperor father.
"Zhou Changshi, you just said that the monsters have not appeared. Now I will personally catch some for you!" Zhao Yanxun said with a smile.
Seeing that his words were not listened to at all, Zhou Chengping immediately knelt down and said: "Your Highness, this matter is extremely dangerous, please put your own safety first!"
Zhou Chengping knelt down, and Guan Hetai on the side also knelt down and said with rare righteousness: "Your Highness, please be careful!"
Zhao Yanxun couldn't help but be stunned. These two people were also thinking about his safety, which made it difficult for him to be too harsh.
Taking the helmet strap from the eunuch, Zhao Yanxun said in a deep voice: "You two, I have made up my mind on this matter, you don't need to say more!"
Then he didn't give these two people a chance to talk anymore, but walked straight out of the hall, leaving Zhou Chengping and Zhou Chengping alone looking at each other.
"I will go with Your Highness myself!" Zhou Chengping stood up and said.
But Guan Hetai said: "Your Highness is very agile and has a large number of guards accompanying him to protect him. I think nothing will happen... If you go, Old Zhou, it will only cause more trouble!"
"It's been several months, and you still don't know His Highness's temperament? Since we can't persuade him, let's wait for his safe return in the palace!"
Sometimes, Guan Hetai does see things much more clearly than Zhou Chengping.
Besides, Zhao Yanxun left the hall and the guards outside were ready.
Fifteen guards wearing armor came out, and there were twenty guards responsible for responding, the latter not wearing armor.
Zhao Yanxun, who was dressed in armor, looked heroic, and his whole person had a bit of fierceness.
"Your Highness, the horses are ready and ready to go at any time!"
"Let's go immediately!" Zhao Yanxun said in a deep voice.
