Chapter 296: Chapter 296: Zombies from Foshan and Dongguan



"Close the gate as soon as I come inside! I repeat, do not keep it open longer than ten seconds!"

Two of the sergeants instantly turned towards Mingxu for order as both the Major and Lieutenant Colonel were busy attending a meeting.

Without any hesitation, Mingxu decided to trust the person sending the transmission and ordered the soldier to follow through with the request.

As the motorcycle drove closer and closer to the wall, one of the soldiers with a thermal detector suddenly detached heat trails, running almost at the same speed as the motorcycle.

"Sir! Something invisible is chasing after the motorcycle!"

"Everyone hold fire! It\'s too close! Is the gate ready?" Mingxu asked out loud as he rushed toward the gate entrance.

Seeing the two soldiers that controlled the gate entrance nodding, there was nothing anyone could do except pray for the scout on the motorcycle.

With a loud engine roaring at max power, the motorcycle finally makes it past the gate.

"Close the——"

Before Mingxu could finish talking, the gate was already slammed shut, and everyone let out a sigh of relief for the scout.

"Open fire now!" Mingxu yelled.

The soldiers instantly opened fire toward the gate entrance, leading to blood splattering everywhere.

"How the hell were there so many invisible mutant zombies?" Mingxu asked as he walked toward the scout, who was still panting for breath.

"I-I don\'t know. I was just on a scouting mission at the highway between Foshan and Guangzhou, and just as I was about to report back after seeing the zombie horde heading towards here, I heard a bunch of footsteps heading toward me.

So, I instantly hopped on my motorcycle and drove back... Can you tell this to Mr.Yezi? I-I think I\'m feeling a little lightheaded——"

The scout suddenly collapsed on top of the motorcycle before he could finish.

"Medic! Over here!"

A soldier with a medic badge instantly ran towards Mingxu, checked the scout pulses, and came up with a conclusion that calmed Mingxu back down.

"He just hasn\'t slept for the past few days. Sleep bag around his eyes and having such an adrenaline pump from driving so fast caused him to pass out."

Mingxu quickly directed two soldiers to carry the scout to rest as he headed toward the command center himself.

In the command center...

"We all know the two massive zombie waves are heading towards us from the West and East. We are currently sandwiched right in the middle, so I devised a plan to strike one of them first."

Lingang explained his plan as everyone in the room listened silently.

"We have enough vehicles to motorize all our units ever since we looted the cars in Guangzhou. We could hit the zombies coming from Foshan in surprise, then turn back and defend Luoping from Dongguan\'s zombies——"

Yezi suddenly raised his hand before Lingang could finish explaining.

"We don\'t have enough fuel to have everyone drive. Besides, the road can\'t fit that many people driving at once unless we want to form a giant snake on the highway."

"I see your angle, Mr.Yezi. But if we divided into smaller groups and headed in different directions, we would avoid what you describe."

Yezi nodded in agreement as he turned over to Xiaoyun, who had been silent for the whole meeting.

"Lingang, as much as your plan sounds good in theory, it\'s not going to work—at least not against the zombie horde from the two cities."

"Why?" Lingang asked curiously.

"First, you need to understand why my plan of using small groups of soldiers to clear the city worked so well initially in Guangzhou

A large zombie horde won\'t give you the chance to catch lone zombies. Not to mention, the openness of the highway means there\'s no cover at all for us to hide in temporarily." -read-first

"But couldn\'t we just outrun them with our cars?" Lingang pointed out.

"Yes, we could. But what if there are zombie mutants that run even faster than cars? Or what if some invisible zombies sneak past the soldiers heading out and attack them one by one?"

Seeing Lingang standing in silence, everyone knew Xiaoyun had picked apart Lingang\'s plan.

"You didn\'t do badly, Lingang. It\'s your first time devising a plan to lead the soldiers, and at least you don\'t have to learn it the hard way like me."

Xiaoyun patted Lingang on the back as Tianci and Kate helped pack Lingang\'s stuff on the board and table.

After Lingang sat back down in one of the seats, Wuli headed up to the front to explain her plan.

"My plan is simple. We fought the zombies before they reached the wall, and then we headed back inside."

Wuli pointed at the map projection on the board, which showed a large empty area leading from Luoping to the highway connecting to Guangzhou.

"We could set up a temporary defense to stall out as long as we can. At the same time, we can still station soldiers on the wall to shoot down to double our firepower."

Seeing Xiaoyun nodding in agreement, Wuli felt a boost of confidence and continued.

"I also had been thinking of setting up a bunker system before the walls to allow the soldiers to fire in a straight line rather than from a downward angle.

If we combined it using tunnels, we can have those soldiers station there for a long time and still be able to retreat to the walls when the bunker becomes too damaged."

"Isn\'t this World War One tactics?" Lingang immediately pointed up in a slightly grumpy mood.

"Not exactly. This is more based on the Maginot line from World War Two... I know they don\'t have the best track record, but considering there are no tanks to destroy those concrete bunkers, I don\'t see any flaw.

Unless tank mutants show up, which can be dealt with by RPGs from the walls above, the soldiers can still retreat to the wall using underground tunnels in the worst-case scenario."

Hearing Wuli\'s reasoning, most of the Majors nodded in agreement with her plan. But Lingang still felt something was off about it.

However, he couldn\'t express his feelings, so all he could do was watch as the decision now went to Xiaoyun.

"You didn\'t come up with this by yourself, didn\'t you?" Xiaoyun questioned.

"I... I might have used a little bit of outside help... But I came up with the design and details."

Wuli shlyly looked down to the ground as she scratched her hair a little.

"Then you should at least give credit to them rather than just claiming it all to yourself... It was Shuli, wasn\'t it?"

Wuli hesitated for a second but nodded in the end, as there was no point hiding it.

"Ahem, anyway, your plan is practical and much safer. However, there is still a slight flaw with this plan that you didn\'t consider at all——"

"What is it?" Wuli asked urgently before Xiaoyun could finish.

"You didn\'t consider how long this would take. Building a bunker system outside and the tunnels to connect to behind the wall would take almost half a month or longer.

We are facing a threat that needs an immediate solution. There is simply not enough time, considering the zombies could arrive at any time. Imagine a bunch of construction workers still hanging outside when the zombies come towards them.

Even if we scout the surroundings, a few will always sneak past, like the invisible ones we have faced before or even new ones. I wouldn\'t be surprised if some zombie starts mutating wings."

Wuli slowly looked more and more down as the heavy criticism from Xiaoyun made her feel what Lingang felt earlier.

"Lieutenant Colonel Wuli, can you hear me?" Xiaoyun spoke out louder as Wuli seemed to lose focus completely.

"Yes, sir. I can hear you."

Wuli finally looked back up to Xiaoyun as her face recovered a little, albeit still a little downed.

"I need you to improve your plans. I can see them being implemented after these two zombie invasions are defeated."

Hearing the hint in Xiaoyun\'s words, Wuli looked much happier as the possibility of her plan being implemented instantly woke her up.

"Yes, sir!" Wuli enthusiastically replied as Lingang grumpy crossed his arm in disappointment.

"Ahem, anyway. Since both of our Lieutenant Colonels currently in Luoping are unable to formulate a plan, I\'ll show my plan——"

Suddenly, before Xiaoyun could finish, everyone could hear a loud knock on the door.

Both Tianci and Kate looked over to Xiaoyun, who gave the signal to open the door.

As soon as Tianci opened the door, Mingxu rushed inside and yelled.

"The zombies are here!"
