Chapter 419: Against 40,000,000 (1/2)

Tang Shaoyang had to stop what he was doing and joined Zhang Mengyao and Wei Xi. Wen was with them while the others were outside, moving to the wall, preparing for another battle.

”Can you estimate the number of the enemy?” Zhang Mengyao asked. The question was directed to the Jade Eagle who found the armies after a night patrol.

”I don't know, but it should be at least twice as much as the armies in Hangzhou,” Wen was not sure with his calculation, ”Also, they are in a rush and many are left far behind from the frontline.”

”We can ask that to Sheron. She should know,” Wei Xi and Zhang Mengyao did not know who this Sheron was.

”Sheron was the female zombie subdued by Yu Shun. She is the zombie in charge of this city,” as he explained that to the two, he called Yu Shun to come over.

A moment later, Yu Shun and Sheron joined them, ”Forty million, King Biron took forty million armies with him.”

”And the armies we fought early were over ten million zombies,” Tang Shaoyang added for more information.

”Should we retreat?” Zhang Mengyao immediately proposed to retreat, ”Our people are still exhausted from the battle in the afternoon. They are still recovering from exhaustion. I don't think we can fight them with our condition.”

”But what if they pursue us?” Tang Shaoyang asked his Supreme General, ”I doubt their intention is only seizing the city. They must be wanting to kill us, all of us.”

”It seems we have no choice but to fight the armies,” Zhang Mengyao realized her mistake when Tang Shaoyang questioned her. If the armies pursued them, they had to fight them.

They had refugees who could not fight in Jiaxing City and Hangzhou's city wall was more reinforced and sturdy than the one in Jiaxing. Hangzhou was a strategic position for them. Utilizing the sturdy and high wall, they might have a better chance to win if they fought here.

”Then I will buy time! Three hours, I will hold the attack for three hours! That should be enough for them to recover, right?” Tang Shaoyang had his own idea.

He could fight the armies by himself, not that he was cocky, but that was possible for the current him. However, that would defeat the purpose of touching his army. The main purpose of this was to train his army.

He could not take all the weak zombies by himself or else they would have to face stronger zombies in the future. The zombies kept evolving, the next time they met another zombie army. The zombie armies' composition might be a mix of stage-3 zombies and stage 4 zombies instead of stage-2 zombies.

”You, alone!?” Zhang Mengyao raised her voice ”Nope, I don't agree. You are the Leader, we can't put you in the most dangerous spot! There's no need to rest. We will fight together!”

”No, let the soldiers get some rest to recover. I am eager for a battle as well,” Tang Shaoyang shook his head.

There were so many things he wanted to try. Skill Fusion for example. He wanted to try [Thousand Blasts] and [Invisible Slash] together, it would be a powerful skill if he could fusion the two skills.

Of course, not all skills could trigger the Skill Fusion. He had tried [Flame Shield] and [Mana Shroud] at the same time. However, it did not trigger the Skill Fusion. That meant not all skills could be merged, and it must be two compatible skills that could trigger the Skill Fusion.

”But…” Zhang Mengyao wanted to speak more but Tang Shaoyang waved his hand at her, ”You guys can stay on my back to take care of the zombies out of my reach.”
