Honda Tadakatsu glanced at the table and saw that all the food had been eaten. He wiped the corners of his mouth and sighed: "After I was promoted to master level, I didn't expect that my appetite would increase."
Hearing Honda Heihachiro Tadakatsu's words, Honda Tadakatsu looked over and said, "I hope they can stay in a stalemate for a longer time. In this way, they can gain more combat experience. In the battle between life and death, they can break through that
The last hurdle.”
"Obstacle?" Honda Heihachiro Tadakatsu shook the feather fan in his hand in confusion.
"Yes, a master-level obstacle." Honda Tadakatsu nodded gently.
"Oh." Honda Heihachiro Tadakatsu looked at the wall of Ningtian Castle with a vague understanding.
The feather fan that was shaking easily suddenly stopped, and even out of shock, the feather fan fell from his hand and landed lightly on the ground.
On the city wall, silver light suddenly flashed, and a large number of Crane Kingdom warriors fell from the city wall, some of them were complete, and most of them were incomplete.
All the soldiers from the Kingdom of Crane who had just attacked had been pushed down, and there was also a general among them.
Next, no matter how many soldiers there were, they all fell down from the city wall with a flash of silver light, and no one climbed up again.
"Report..." The messenger ran in like a gust of wind, "Report, Hiraiwa Oikayoshi, Matsudaira Yasutada, Yonezu Fujizo, Watanabe Moritsuna and other adults have all been killed in battle."
"What...what...four generals died at once..." Honda Heihachiro Tadakatsu couldn't help but sweat dripping from his temples.
These generals were all Tokugawa Ieyasu's capable men. After many years of war, they were all unscathed. However, they actually lost so much in this attack on the small Ningten Castle.
He originally wanted to issue an order to bring all the rest back, but before the war, they all issued military orders. Once the order to retreat was issued, they would lose all their glory.
To them, glory is more important than their lives.
What a dilemma...
Although he heard the words of the messenger clearly, Honda Heihachiro Tadakatsu could only choose to ignore them.
Honda Heihachiro Tadakatsu could ignore the number of casualties among soldiers, but the death of generals was due to his incompetence. He was the general staff officer responsible for formulating plans.
If Master Tokugawa Ieyasu found out, he didn't know how he would be scolded.
He slowly bent down, picked up the feather fan that had fallen to the ground, and sat helplessly on the small stool, "Since you all want to make contributions and show your bravery, then go ahead. If one person successfully advances to the master level, it will be considered a success.
A kind of victory."
"In that case, let me wait and see..." Honda Heihachiro Tadakatsu continued to sit calmly, and the feather fan also swayed slightly.
It's just that more and more messengers entered the camp, and each time they reported the number of dead people and the names of the dead generals.
Kanbara Yasumasa, Torii Motoad, Torii Motobu, Naito Masashige... four more generals fell.
When he heard the news, even Honda Tadakatsu frowned, and Honda Heihachiro Tadakatsu was sweating all over, and his palms trembled disobediently.
"Quickly...quickly...let them retreat...retreat..." The loss was so huge that Honda Heihachiro Tadakatsu couldn't bear the pressure anymore and he screamed suddenly.
In any case, he would save the lives of the remaining generals first. As for whether they would teach him a lesson later, he no longer cared.
On the fierce battlefield, Ming Jinsheng suddenly remembered, and all the soldiers and generals looked to the rear with dissatisfaction.
But no matter how dissatisfied they are, military orders are military orders, and the few remaining generals can only obey orders.
When the sun set, all the soldiers of the Country of Crane had withdrawn from the battlefield, but they left countless corpses on the battlefield.
Countless vultures flew in the sky, waiting for an opportunity to fly down and enjoy their food.
Countless slaves died in this battle, but in the end, as many as three thousand were saved, and they will soon become the guards of Ningtian Fort.
"General Qin, look below...those corpses move again..." The soldiers around him suddenly exclaimed.
"How is it possible that the corpse is moving again? What nonsense are you talking about..." Qin Liangyu, who was leaning behind the city wall, finally stood up. She had been sitting here all day long.
Looking down through the crenel, the pupils in Qin Liangyu's eyes suddenly tightened.
The piled corpses under the city wall stood up staggeringly, their pupils exuding a blue look, because the blood in their bodies had drained out, and their cheeks were as thin as dry trees.
Their bodies were still left with various scars, gunshots, and knife wounds, but this did not affect them in the slightest from standing up again.
A group of Ashigaru came running from a distance. They were responsible for collecting the corpses. Otherwise, letting the corpses accumulate for a long time would cause plague and disease.
They thought the standing corpse was their still-dead companion, so they rushed over without hesitation.
"Don't move. If you move any more, the wound will tear. We are here to help you..." The Ashigaru people ran over excitedly while wary of the enemy troops on the wall.
"Wait... let's see what changes there are with them." Qin Liangyu suppressed the musketeers beside him and stared at the two groups of teams gathering without blinking.
Under the dark night, the Ashigaru finally got close to them, some even went up to give them a big hug, and their cheerful laughter could be vaguely heard.
But in the next second, screams suddenly sounded, and the dead bodies hugged them in turn, but unlike their friendliness, they hugged the ashigaru tightly with such strength that they could even hear the ashigaru.
The sound of their bones cracking.
Then they bent their heads and bit hard at the ashigaru's neck, tearing off a piece of meat and devouring it like a wolf.
Even the people on the city wall looked creepy, not to mention the people below. The remaining ashigaru were frightened. Only then did they feel that something was wrong with the companions they had just thought.
They turned around and ran back, but at this time there were corpses everywhere under them. Before they could run a few meters, all the corpses on the ground stood up unsteadily.
These ashigaru were immediately stumbled, surrounded, and then disappeared among the resurrected corpses.
"Go and call Gan Song..." Qin Liangyu quickly ordered the people around him.
"Gansong has been working for a longer time and has more knowledge. Maybe Gansong knows what these guys are?"
Not long after, the huge Gan Siong came to Qin Liangyu's side. He only glanced down and introduced to Qin Liangyu:
"General, they are undead. They can be naturally generated or man-made."
Gan Siong inhaled hard as if he smelled something, "This time it was man-made. I smell the smell of death."
Man-made?... Qin Liangyu nodded silently and said, "Well, I will send people to find them, but first, you tell me how to kill them."
