Chapter 434: The Indomitable Wolf Spirit
Hachikuju and the others followed the path led by Lin Qing, winding their way into Ordos City. Over thirty people ascended the city wall, encountering no obstacles along the way.
“Lord Hachikuju!”
“Leader! Uncle Peng!”
The one speaking in front was Elder Meng, who had been in charge of defense matters, and those behind were from the Red Flame Wolf Riders.
Hachikuju remained silent, walking to the edge of the city wall, surrounded by everyone. Those present were all the elite and core members of Ordos City, gathered here.
At this moment, Hachikuju, who had been silent, finally spoke.
“The key figures of the Four Wolf Riders are all here. I am Hachikuju. The zombie sea is about to arrive at the defense works two kilometers outside the capital in seven to eight minutes. I am now the overall commander of the battle in Ordos City.”
Looking around, although no one dared to speak up, their eyes were full of doubt.
“In a crisis, I won’t explain too much, just two points.
Firstly, leaders Su Rui and Huang Yan were harmed by traitors, who are behind this sudden arrival of the zombie sea. Therefore, the Grey Wolf Rider and Army Breaking Wolf Rider are disbanded, and the two units will merge to fight together.”
As soon as Hachikuju said this, the whole crowd was in an uproar.
“How is that possible? How could our leaders be dead?”
“Yeah, Leader Su Rui is highly skilled, how could he die? He was fine when we saw him on the mirror screen just now. How did he disappear on the screen, and then City Lord Hachikuju, you say he’s dead!”
Who would have thought that both leaders of the wolf riders had died suddenly? At such a crucial moment, the people from Grey Wolf Rider and Army Breaking Wolf Rider all cast suspicious glances at Hachikuju. Not even the people from the Red Flame Wolf Rider were so certain, because they knew that Su Rui and their leader had a major grudge.
Hachikuju was not nervous at all. With confidence as a leader, he intimidated the people around him, making them go from loud chatter to complete silence.
“Finished speaking? I won’t explain now. Since you’re done, I’ll move on to the second point.”
This time, the zombie army surrounding us is about two million in number, but since half of them are targeting Hohhot City, only one million are attacking us.”
Hachikuju paused for a moment, his ability to analyze the situation was very comprehensive.
“This news has both good and bad sides. On one hand, Hohhot City is sharing our pressure, so now only one million zombies are attacking our city instead of the initial two million.
However, at the same time, I hope everyone realizes a fact. That is, Hohhot City is also surrounded, so we shouldn’t rely on Chief Zhang Yi, and we have no retreat.
The city stands, the people remain!”
Hachikuju’s eyes widened as he looked at everyone daring to meet his gaze, slowly uttering four words left unsaid.
“If the city falls, the people perish.”
“Who was in charge of defending the city before? Speak up! Is all the fuel and rolling stones in place as the zombie horde is just five minutes away from reaching the defense fortifications?”
Hachikuju clearly knew how much supplies were hidden in the royal capital and quickly asked.
Elder Meng quickly stepped out from the crowd. He was the first to accept the fact that Su Rui was dead. Even if Hachikuju was lying, it was unlikely that all thirty-plus second-rank peak evolvers brought by Su Rui were lying.
He changed his title, speaking in a low and respectful tone, bowing to Hachikuju as he answered.
“Commander, two minutes ago, all the rolling stones, thunderwood, and fuel were moved to every corner of the city walls. They are equipped with power-type evolvers and fire-type evolvers, all waiting for orders to be given.”
Both the rolling stones and fuel are in place. Surprisingly, there is also thunderwood, a defense weapon made from mutated plants.
Hachikuju nodded slightly, looked at Elder Meng, helped him up, and said, “You’ve worked hard, you’ve done a great job.”
“Commander, this is what I should do.”
A hint of hesitation flickered in Elder Meng’s eyes, he seemed like he wanted to say something but then decisively spoke out.
“I, Elder Meng, have a special request, please, Hachikuju, will you agree?”
Hachikuju stared into his eyes and then said, “Elder Meng, right? I’ve heard of you. Please tell me what you need. I am responsible for wartime command and will consider any reasonable suggestions.”
“Please, Commander, do not mix Grey Wolf Rider with Army Breaking Wolf Rider.”
Hachikuju remained silent. Elder Meng seemed anxious and added quickly, “Commander, I’m not refusing orders. Even though Grey Wolf Rider and Army Breaking Wolf Rider have lost their leaders, their fighting strength will decrease significantly. However, we are well-trained. Mixing with other wolf riders temporarily may increase our numbers, but it will definitely affect our teamwork.”
“If you trust me, Hachikuju, then give Grey Wolf Rider to me. Even if we may not be as strong as Red Flame Wolf Rider and Shield Wolf Rider, we will definitely cause chaos in the Zombie Sea to avenge our leader, Su Rui. Grey Wolf Rider will not be weak!”
“Well said, Elder Meng. City Lord, please do not disband Grey Wolf Rider. Let us fight fiercely to avenge Su Rui. Even if our enemies are zombies, we will tear them apart without hesitation. Even if it’s a dragon, we will still fight bravely.”
“Yes, City Lord, don’t break us up. We cannot cooperate well with Army Breaking Wolf Rider.”
“Indeed, we, Army Breaking Wolf Rider, are skilled with guns and have our own battle formation. Even if Lord Huang Yan is absent, we have a deputy leader. Our strength will not be weakened much. Please trust us!”
“Please believe in us, Hachikuju! Army Breaking Wolf Rider will not back down!”
It’s hard to imagine these passionate words coming from an old man who seemed weak, but now they have stirred up the crowd.
Hachikuju thought for a moment, then decisively nodded in agreement with Elder Meng’s words.
“Okay, Grey Wolf Rider and Army Breaking Wolf Rider, you are fine young men from my city of Inner Mongolia, and you are the pride of Ordos City. Even though your leader is gone, I hope you will not disgrace the name of your wolf riders.
“You are allowed to fight separately. Grey Wolf Rider, with many archers, will harass the flanks, and Army Breaking Wolf Rider will stay in the city, awaiting my orders.”
“Remember, you are fighting for your families, your close friends, and for humanity.”
“Whether we win or lose in the end, as long as humanity survives, your names will be sung forever in this land.”
“We are wolves, the grassland wolves who fight to death to make a way through the enemy! The grassland wolves who dare to fight tigers to protect their homes!”
“We inherit the spirit of wolves, our souls are born for battle as wolf spirits!”
In the end, with great emotion, Hachikuju’s loud voice burst out with his anger.
“The battle goes on, the wolf spirit lives on!”
Four wolf riders were on top of the city wall, inspired by Hachikuju’s declaration before the battle, their blood boiling with excitement, their united roar echoing throughout the city.
“The battle goes on, the wolf spirit lives on!”
“The battle goes on, the wolf spirit lives on!”
“The battle goes on, the wolf spirit lives on!”
