On the Clearnet satellite image, dense red light groups are moving, like locusts passing through, and no grass grows wherever they go.

Countless farms and post towns were destroyed, pens collapsed, and farmland and orchards were razed to the ground.

"How long until the zombie wave arrives?"

"Estimated within seven hours."

"How are you preparing?"

"The defense areas have been assigned, everyone is in their positions!"

In order to resist the tide of corpses, all the great figures from the north have arrived. The Red Dragon Grand Duke Salode, the Zilan Duke Dongfang Xuanyuan, the Juqing Marquis Takijian Xier, the Red Rock Marquis Bronze Hammer Grantham, and the Black Spear Marquis Elvi

Bartlet, Queen Regent Dongfang Xuanran, and Marquis Xiao Tienuo of Hanling.

Chen Xing divided seven war zones according to the country, among which the expeditionary force and the Silver Claw New Army were arranged in one war zone.

Ricardo continued his duties as commander-in-chief, directing the overall situation and arranging specific defense work.

As long as she successfully blocks the tide of corpses, Aaliyah will gain the support of all northerners and become the true northern princess, while the remaining Black Spear and Red Rock will not be able to make any waves.

The overall situation of the north is thus unified.

Lin Yuanzheng also sensed this, and ran away as soon as the zombie wave broke out. As a spoiler, the only outcome for being caught is death. Even if he is a direct disciple of Borage, he cannot escape the fate of being executed.

There were still seven hours until the zombie wave hit. Chen Xing planned to take a nap to ensure he was energetic during the battle, but at this moment, Lacey came to the door.

I saw Lacey smiling brightly, twisting her waist and sitting down next to him, naturally wrapping her arms around his arms, her movements warm and her expression intimate.

"What do you want to do?" Chen Xing asked vigilantly. As the saying goes, showing courtesy for nothing is either cheating or stealing. If Lacey treats him coldly and he still thinks it's normal, but suddenly becomes intimate with her, there must be something wrong.

Lacey didn't hide it and directly stated her purpose, "I hope you will appoint me as the commander-in-chief of the Northern Alliance to command the overall situation."

As if she was worried that Chen Xing would be worried, she added, "I can do what Ricardo can do."

Chen Xing frowned and seemed to have no reaction, "What do you mean?"

"Ye Yang Bailiu and I are the top leaders of the Northern Alliance, the right-hand man of the Northern Princess, and the most trusted advisor of the Prime Minister," Lacey said.

"Wait a minute..." Chen Xing frowned and thought for a while, finally understanding the stakes.

Lacey believes that the zombie tide will eventually be stopped, and as the commander-in-chief of resisting the zombie tide, she will gain a huge reputation.

When a general's reputation and status match, his position will become very stable.

To put it bluntly, she was worried that Ricardo would be too successful to replace him in the future.

In response, Chen Xing rejected Lacey's request on the grounds that "changing generals before a war is a taboo for military strategists."

Taking a step back, even if Ricardo could be replaced, he would not let Lacey take over. Lacey's status was already high enough, and he was always wary of Lacey. In his heart, Lacey was more powerful than Ricardo.

The existence of danger.

Lacey's face gradually turned cold and her tone was unkind, "I really didn't expect that you, a man, would be so small-minded."

She looked a little sad, "

I'm pregnant with your child, and you still don't trust me..."

She gave Chen Xing a hateful look, stood up and left.

After seeing off Lacey, Chen Xing leaned on the chair and was about to take a nap, when Ye Yang Bailiu came to the door again.

Interestingly, Ye Yang Bailiu's goal this time was surprisingly the same as Lacey's, which was to persuade him to replace Ricardo and let Lacey take over.

"You know, Aaliyah doesn't like Ricardo very much."

"Resisting the tide of corpses is such a great contribution that it will be difficult to control in the future." Ye Yang Bailiu analyzed.

Chen Xing couldn't help but feel a headache. He pinched his eyebrows and said, "Is it too difficult for you to ask me to replace you now?"

"What will the public say about me? As Prime Minister, if I still play political tricks when the war is about to begin, am I lustful or nepotistic?"

Ye Yang Bailiu still wanted to argue, but was interrupted by Chen Xing, "This matter has been settled, don't be verbose!"

Seeing that he had made up his mind, Ye Yang Bailiu bit his lip, said nothing more, nodded and left.

After Ye Yang Bailiu left, Chen Xing felt irritable and could no longer sleep.

Because Ye Yang Bailiu was right, Aaliyah didn't like Ricardo, and to their small and powerful team, Ricardo was an outsider.

Whether it was the previous conflict between Ricardo and him or the other party's existence as a male, Chen Xing was not willing to see an excessively high status.

But making a sudden change of generals without a proper reason would be a common-sense mistake that would cause a huge blow to his reputation.

On the other hand, he also didn't want to see Lacey's status being too high. He could never feel at ease with this woman.

Every decision is full of contradictions and entanglements, which makes people feel irritable.

But there were still six or seven hours before the war started, so just sitting like this was not an option, so he called brothers like Huozui, Pang Li, Da Mao, Cassie, and Lin Shiyuan over to drink and chat together to pass the time.

After two glasses of wine, Chen Xing's mind started to heat up, and he thought that the most reliable ones were these brothers. He grabbed Huozui's wrist, pulled him over, and whispered, "We will fight later, don't work too hard..."

"

"You are the only brothers I have left. If anyone leaves again, I'm afraid I won't be able to bear it."

"As Shen Guangming said, if everyone is dead, what's the point of dreaming?"

"You must keep your lives in the future and help me govern the country together, otherwise Tienuo's death will be in vain."

Huozui looked hesitant, probably because this kind of conversation made this upright and cheerful man unaccustomed, but after some thought, he nodded vigorously, "Boss, I listen to you!"

"Good brother!" Chen Xing pressed Huozui's shoulder hard.

These women are all here for profit. Opening their mouths is for power, and keeping their mouths shut is for profit, which makes his head swollen.

It is estimated that after conquering Xiaoyue Principality, there will be more headaches waiting for him.

Nowadays, the only way to relieve stress is by drinking alcohol and numbing the nerves with alcohol.

At the same time, thousands of kilometers away, in the palace of Baihu City, the minister in charge of intelligence work was reporting to Zhennan Grand Duke Nangong Xuanwu.

"Recently it was discovered that a mysterious organization is infiltrating officers of the National Defense Army."

The Protectorate Army of the Principality of Tezera is a relatively special military organization, ostensibly subordinate to the Grand Duke of Zhennan, but it is not an army of the Principality of Tezera, but an army of the Ambergris United Kingdom.

The size of the National Guard Army is several times that of the general group army, with millions of people. Its mission is to guard the southern gate of the kingdom and resist the threat from the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.

The National Protectorate is sworn to defend the country without being affected by any factors. This is the same as the Dragon Scale Guards. What they are sworn to protect is not the royal power, but the country.

This was done to detach itself from political influence and concentrate on fending off foreign enemies.

Regarding the news reported by the Minister of Intelligence, Nangong Xuanwu did not show any surprise. The infiltration of the National Guard Army by Saudi Arabia or other foreign organizations is not a matter of a day or two, but a long history, from ancient times to modern times, it can be said that

It's commonplace.

"Sir, there is something fishy about this matter, and we must pay attention to it." The Minister of Intelligence looked solemn and worried.

"We can trust the loyalty of the National Guard Army." Nangong Xuanwu comforted him.

"We arrested several officers we had contact with for questioning. They were very strict and said that this was the righteousness of the kingdom and worthy of the conscience of heaven and earth."

"What?" Nangong Xuanwu frowned slightly, "Did they really say that?"

"It's absolutely true!" The Minister of Intelligence approached the king and whispered, "They are like being possessed by a demon, insisting that their actions are just."

"Absurd!" Nangong Xuanwu slapped the armrest of the throne hard.

"Your Majesty, do you want..." The Minister of Intelligence made a beheading gesture, "Do you want to increase the punishment?"

"This..." Nangong Xuanwu hesitated. After all, the National Guard Army is a force directly under the kingdom. Now the kingdom is in chaos and there is no unified leader. He is only a nominal leader.

Dealing with the officers of the Protectorate Army was a bit over the line.

"Now that the country is in chaos, the Grand Duke must make a decision early, otherwise foreign enemies will take advantage of the situation and we will become criminals in history!" the Minister of Intelligence advised.

"Well..." Nangong Xuanwu touched his beard and already made a decision in his heart.

"Pass this order to me. Anyone found to be a traitor in the National Guard Army will be punished immediately for treason!"

On the day the order was issued, there was an uproar in the National Guard Army. The National Guard Army, also known as the "Kingdom Frontier Army", had great political independence. The sudden intervention of the Grand Duke of Zhennan surprised them.

At this moment, a mysterious man came to the palace and asked to meet Nangong Xuanwu.

"Please state your identity and your purpose of coming." The palace guard said with a serious face and a business-like tone.

"I am Lanster Mordrake, the special envoy of the Lan Kingdom!" The mysterious man lifted his hood, revealing a handsome and evil face.

The palace guard's expression suddenly changed, and he quickly bowed and saluted, saying loudly, "I didn't know that you are here, but I was rude, and I am extremely sorry!"

Lanster smiled and nodded, patting the other party on the shoulder, "It's my fault that I failed to identify myself immediately."

"Lord Lanster, I will take you to see the king right now!"
