Choose Liu Bei at the start, I am the only one who knows the plot of the Three Kingdoms.

Chapter 512 The Walking Dead, Jiangxia County Falls
"Fuck Sun Jian! I'll fuck all your ancestors!"

A young man shouted loudly. He was also from the Jiangxia Huang family. According to the backup plan, he was Huang Zhong's nephew and should call Huang Zhong uncle. He was the son of Huang Zu's niece and was also furious at the moment.

Huang Zhong slowly pulled open his Eight Treasures Kirin Bow, put an arrow on it, and aimed at Huang Zu's body. As Huang Zhong's hand loosened the string, an arrow flew out through the air and quickly flew towards Huang Zu's body.

The next moment, a noise louder than the other explosions was heard, and Huang Zu's headless body fell to the ground.

Two lines of tears appeared on Huang Zhong's face. He knelt on the ground and kowtowed in the direction of Huang Zu's body.

"Uncle, I am incompetent! I am afraid I cannot avenge you personally. But it is ok, the lord will definitely avenge us both."

As he spoke, Huang Zhong kowtowed three times heavily towards the corpse again, then stood up, climbed onto his horse, and touched his face with his sleeve, wiping away the two lines of tears on it.

"Everyone, be careful. Don't touch any corpses. Try not to let them get within 200 steps. These corpses are likely to be highly poisonous."

Huang Zhong reminded in a deep voice. Within a few seconds of just jumping onto the horse, he had adjusted his emotions and was no longer affected by anything else. He was now the only backbone. If he could not keep his sanity, then their 3,200 people would be destroyed in an instant.

There is no way to survive if they stay here. They can die, but they must not die in obscurity or be worthless.

After Huang Zhong's reminder, the others no longer tried to attack, but instead drew their bows and arrows frantically and began to shoot those strange corpses.

After the bodies fell to the ground, something seemed to be flowing on the ground and flowing towards them along the street, but nothing could be seen with the naked eye.

Huang Zhong looked around. For some reason, even though he had kept the corpses a hundred steps away, he still felt uneasy.

"Don't worry about these things anymore. There is a back door to the governor's mansion. Go through the back door and go to the east wall. Guard the wall!"

Huang Zhong shouted to everyone and at the same time put an arrow on his head, but he did not aim at the corpses, but released it towards the sky.

The arrow carrying the brilliant blue light flew high into the sky, and the dazzling blue light looked like a rising star in the sky.

After seeing this scene, the soldiers who had already walked out of Jiangxia County City fell silent, because this was an agreement between them and Huang Zhong. Once there was danger in the city, Huang Zhong would release this kind of arrow to warn them.

"Brothers! Follow me and kill our way to Sun Jian's lair!"

Wei Yan clenched his teeth and was unwilling to watch that scene again, because he knew very well that whoever stayed in Jiangxia would die!
He did not stop, bypassed Sun Jian's army in the north, went from Changsha to Yuzhang, and then headed straight for Yangzhou Wujun. Xu Rong, who had the same goal as Wei Yan, was five miles north of Wei Yan. The two 10,000 cavalry troops advanced like two parallel lines, not leaving each other too far, and kept in touch with each other at all times, like two cheetahs, killing towards Wujun together.

The witch who controlled the corpse soon discovered something was wrong, because there were too few people in the city. There were only a part of the people in front of the prefect's mansion, and the others seemed to have disappeared out of thin air.

After searching Jiangxia County, they finally confirmed that there were only a few thousand people left in the Prefectural Mansion in Jiangxia City, and those thousands of people were now moving to the only relatively intact city wall in the east.

The leading witch immediately broke control of the corpse and reported to Miao Moqing.

At this moment, Miao Moqing was reporting the battle situation to Sun Jian in Sun Jian's tent. When Sun Jian heard that Huang Zu's body had also been found and had been controlled, Sun Jian could not help but let out a long roar to the sky.

"Hahahaha, Zhao Yun, Huang Zhong, Wei Yan, and Xu Rong must all be alive. I want to recruit them under my command. After this battle, who in the world can be my opponent?"

"They have strong physiques. This kind of secondary poison will only poison them and affect their combat effectiveness, but it will not kill them."

"Yes, yes, that's great!"

Sun Jian raised the teacup in front of him and drank it all in one gulp.

"Chief, thank you for your hard work. When the war is over, I promise that I will give you, the Gu tribe, a place to live in the sun. It will be your private land, free from the control of anyone!"

"Thank you very much, my lord."

Miao Moqing smiled brightly. Her beautiful face and sweet smile made Sun Jian's legs go weak. However, Sun Jian knew that the peerless beauty in front of him was not a flower bud to be plucked by anyone, but a rose covered with poisonous thorns. He would be pricked by her if he was not careful. Therefore, although Sun Jian had lustful thoughts, he did not have the courage to do it.

Just when Sun Jian wanted to ask Miao Moqing to leave, he saw Miao Moqing's face change. A bad thought popped up in Sun Jian's mind. Although he didn't know why, but in just a moment, his right eyelid began to twitch wildly. This situation made him, a man who traveled from the modern era and firmly believed that left eye twitching means good fortune and right eye twitching means disaster, extremely nervous.

"what happened?"

Sun Jianqiang suppressed the strangeness in his heart and asked calmly.

Miao Moqing's complexion recovered a little, and after a little consideration, Miao Moqing decided to tell someone something that was not good news first.

"My lord, Huang Zu's body has been destroyed by Huang Zhong himself."

"That's all?"

Sun Jian looked puzzled. There was no need to make a fuss about such a thing, and it would not make Miao Moqing lose face, so Sun Jian immediately guessed that Miao Moqing had other things on her mind.

As expected, Miao Moqing spoke again.

"There are only a few thousand people left in Jiangxia County, including Huang Zhong. The others have disappeared. They controlled the bodies and walked all over the city but couldn't find them."

As soon as he finished speaking, he picked up the teacup in front of Sun Jian and smashed it on the ground. He felt that it was not enough, so he simply overturned the desk.

The soldiers guarding outside the tent rushed in immediately when they heard the noise inside, fearing that something might happen to Sun Jian. As soon as they entered the tent, they were scolded by Sun Jian and then driven out.

Only Sun Jian and Miao Moqing were left in the tent, but the two of them were completely different from the two a hundred breaths ago.

Sun Jian gritted his teeth.

“Chief, didn’t you say that you surrounded the city as soon as I gave the order? How could they disappear out of thin air?”

"My lord, there is more than half an hour of free time between our retreat and the issuance of the order. They are likely to move during this time."

Although Miao Moqing was nervous, she remained neither humble nor arrogant.

Sun Jian stared at Miao Moqing for a while with a grim look in his eyes, then waved his hand.

"Chief, I lost my composure just now."

"No problem, my lord."

Miao Moqing also went along with it and said nothing more.

Sun Jian sat dejectedly in his chair. He originally wanted to take this opportunity to recruit Zhao Yun and several other generals to his side, so as to strengthen his own army again and at the same time effectively eliminate Liu Bei's new forces.

Another battlefield in Jingzhou, Nanjun, was where Cao Cao and Liu Bei fought. Since Ma Chao, Zhang He, Taishi Ci and other generals were not in Jiangxia, they were undoubtedly in Cao Cao. In other words, no matter who won or lost in the Nanjun battlefield, both sides suffered heavy losses. This was Sun Jian's plan, but he never expected that Zhao Yun and his men would choose to retreat immediately after the battle without any stop. This made Sun Jian a little suspicious, wondering if there was a spy.

However, the only ones who knew about this were him, Miao Moqing, and the one hundred Gu girls who were in charge of the plan. The Gu girls and Miao Moqing definitely had no chance to contact Liu Bei, and they were definitely not Liu Bei's men. It couldn't be that Sun Jian betrayed himself.

In fact, what Sun Jian didn't know was that the reason that puzzled him was nothing but Huang Zhong's self-sacrifice. In order to help Liu Bei defend Jingzhou and prevent the eastern part of Jingzhou from falling, Huang Zhong came up with this method and used his death in exchange for the current situation.

It was precisely because of Huang Zhong's action that tens of thousands of lives were saved and Sun Jian, who thought he was smart, was pulled from the high platform into the abyss!

"Capture Huang Zhong alive!"

Sun Jian slammed the table.

Miao Moqing saluted him and turned to leave.

On the city wall of Jiangxia County, three thousand archers have now firmly occupied the top of the city wall. The slow-moving corpses carrying corpse insects are shot in the heads by archers on the city wall when they are still a long distance away from the city wall, and they cannot get close to the city wall at all.

The reason why Huang Zhong brought them to the city wall was because he was afraid that these corpses had the same poison as the previous witch. That's why he brought them to the city wall to occupy the commanding heights.

Moreover, archers would have more advantages when attacking from high ground. Huang Zhong stood in the center of the city wall, with one foot on the battlement, looking up at the corpses swarming in. They certainly could not sit on the city wall and wait to die, otherwise it would be a matter of time before they were surrounded by these corpses.

Even if these corpses cannot climb up the city wall, they can still surround the wall. As long as some of them go down, they may be infected with the mysterious poison. Huang Zhong has witnessed the severe effect of the poison with his own eyes. The flesh begins to turn into bones the moment it is infected, and finally even the bones are melted.

So once they were surrounded, they were doomed anyway.

"Xiao Liuzi!"

Huang Zhong shouted, and someone from the Baiyu Light Cavalry rushed over. Two hundred Baiyu Light Cavalry were riding on the city wall at this moment, ready to support wherever there was a need. Hearing Huang Zhong's shout, the deputy general of the Baiyu Light Cavalry, who was the main general besides Huang Zhong, rode over on horseback.

"General, what's wrong?"

"Are you afraid of death?"

Huang Zhong patted the head of the man named Xiao Liuzi, and Xiao Liuzi shook his head fiercely.

"I was afraid before, but I'm not afraid now. Since the day I followed the general, I'm no longer afraid of death."

Xiao Liuzi has a bright smile, and one can tell from his childish face that he is at most just an adult.

"Okay, if you're not afraid of death, then I'll give you a mission where you'll almost die."

"General, you say."

Huang Zhong did not answer Xiao Liuzi, but shouted again.

"Everyone under the age of 24, come here. The older ones can't do this job, so you youngsters should do it!"

When Huang Zhong said this, people on the city wall began to gather, and soon, more than forty young men came to Huang Zhong. Huang Zhong looked at these young men with a smile on his face, just like looking at his juniors.

"Very good, you are all great."

As Huang Zhong spoke, he pulled out the Red Blood Knife from behind him and handed it to Xiao Liuzi, who was in the lead.

Xiao Liuzi looked confused and did not reach out to take the knife. Instead, he stared blankly at Huang Zhong. Huang Zhong wrapped the Red Blood Knife with cloth, stuffed it into Xiao Liuzi's hand, and then touched Xiao Liuzi's bald head.

"Send this knife to Qingzhou."

Xiao Liuzi instantly understood why Huang Zhong had gathered them together, because Huang Zhong didn't want these young soldiers to die here.

"No, I'm not going."

Before Xiao Liuzi could finish his words, Huang Zhong slapped him in the face and he was unable to speak. Huang Zhong pretended to be angry.

"You're not even a commander yet, don't try to bully me here! Wait until you become a general, then you can bully me!"

"Also, even if you are the main general, you are still my soldier, you still have to listen to me!"

Huang Zhong didn't give Xiao Liuzi any chance to refuse.

"Go away, everyone. Remember, don't touch this knife directly. You can only use this knife when you are in desperate situation."

Xiao Liuzi's face was full of tears, and he nodded stubbornly.

More than forty people, all mounted their horses, and ran towards the north of the city which was not yet surrounded by corpses. Huang Zhong looked at the group of people going away, and the guilt in his heart was finally compensated.

"Everyone, I can keep these children alive, but you will have to die here with me."

There was a hint of self-mockery in Huang Zhong's voice. After a brief silence, someone spoke.

"Old General, I am not someone who is afraid of death."

"Yes, it's just a pity that I have to die with a bunch of men like you without a girl."

"You still dislike us, it's good that we don't dislike you, you don't wash your feet every day, the smell, wow, which girl can stand you?"

The archers laughed and cursed, but they did not stop. Soon, the number of arrows was running out, but the slow-moving corpses seemed endless and still approached them.

With no more arrows, they could only draw the daggers at their waists and attack at close range. However, as soon as they approached the corpses, they suddenly felt difficulty breathing, and then fell to the ground and lost consciousness.

Looking at this scene, the last glimmer of hope in Huang Zhong's heart disappeared. He shook his head slightly and sighed. He could not escape after all.

As the first corpse climbed onto the city wall, the only pure land in the entire Jiangxia County city was also contaminated by the corpse poison. Until the corpse poison infected Huang Zhong, he was still wielding the Eight Treasures Kirin Bow, blowing up the already rotten heads of the corpses.

Huang Zhong felt increasingly weaker, until he couldn't even lift the Eight Treasures Kirin Bow, let alone wave his hand. Finally, he lay powerlessly on the ground.

In the last few breaths before he lost consciousness, he felt like he was being carried by something, as if it was those corpses. Huang Zhong felt that he was too tired, his head tilted, and he completely lost consciousness.
