Reinforcement is coming——\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Where the fuck is the reinforcement, Zhong Pan? I don't need more bombs or missiles! I need men and ammo!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the two sides continued to argue, the idea Xiaoyun had only further fermented into his mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Go fuck yourself and fuck your order. I'm going to retreat now with my men.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You... Fine——\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as the call was about to end between them, Xiaoyun quickly turned on his walkies-talkie's mic.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hello. Is this Zhongxiong's defense force I'm speaking to?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Who's this?\" Wen Pi asked first.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I'm the commander of 3rd and 4th Army corp from Luoping. I was wondering if you guys need our help in fighting.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Both side fell into silence, making Xiaoyun a little nervous as his mind thought they didn't believe him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Commander, we're five minute from arriving at the destination. Over.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Lingang's voice came out from the other walkies-talkies, the two finally spoke up again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You're really the commander of Lingang?\" Wen Pi asked with a hint of uncertainty.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Lingang, am I your commander?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes, sir. Zhong Pan and Wen Pi, you both could hear me right now, right?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The person on the mic right now is the commander that I had told you guys about.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The moment Lingang finished talking, Xiaoyun could hear one of the side letting out a small sigh.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Mr.Chen, can you help us? As fellow human being against the zombies?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing Wen Pi's pleading voice made Xiaoyun feel a little guilty, but he quickly shook his head to clear his mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I'm sorry. But I'm responsible to my citizens and my soldiers... I cannot help you for free like this.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What do you want?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This time, the voice was from Zhong Pan, speaking up before Wen Pi could make any offers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It will be great if we can get a few of your missiles——\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Not happening.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Zhong Pan you old coot! Do you want us to lose more men? What are those missile going to do if we're all dead?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Xiaoyun waited for their response, he quickly turned off his mic before turning his original walkies-talkie a little louder.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Commander Xiaoyun! Building four here. We're requesting to retreat!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Denied. All units. Get ready to move. We're going to retake Changsha with our allies. Over.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The order seemingly confused the entire army, including the nearby soldiers who heard the entire conversation the whole time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They could all hear the negotiation had yet to go through, but Xiaoyun acted as if the deal had already been reached.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Commander, are you sure? We only have enough ammos to break through the horde for retreat.\" One of the Colonels raised their concern.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If we don't have enough, we're going to brute force it no matter what. All truck units, get ready to be on standby to run over zombies.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a few second, the walkie-talkie rang up with all six Colonels accepting the order he had put.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Affirmative.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With the concern out of the way, Xiaoyun quickly shift his attention back to the second walkie-talkie.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Have you guys decided what to do?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"We can give you five of the missiles if you manage to help us clear Changsha.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Deal.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You don't want to know what kind of missiles they are? What if we back off the deal afterward?\" Wen Pi asked out of curiosity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I trust you guys... There's no reason to break a promise when you guys have already honored your deal in the past.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ahem, I'm going to get ready. Please try your best to hold on.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Xiaoyun hung up the call, he quickly took a glance by the window.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as he expected, endless rows of zombies were still on the street, rushing inward towards all the different buildings his soldiers held.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not a single building was fortunate enough, as loud gunshots downstairs indicated that the zombies had arrived at the last row.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Walking across to the other side of the office and looking down, he noticed that there were much fewer zombies on the other street.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"All trucks, please head towards 2nd street and get ready to head towards the city center.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Affirmative.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Building one, you may retreat into the trucks first. After it is done, you may immediately drive off, and the next building will begin the moving process.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Affirmative.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Lingang, can your army go towards the city center instead?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes sir.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing loud trucks traveling down the street, all of the soldiers on the 2nd floor were already started packing their stuff.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiaoyun didn't wait either. He began heading downstairs with them, only to arrive at an entrance filled with zombie bodies.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Commander! Are we going to abandon these heavy weapons and bullet?\" The Major asked out loud.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"We can get them back later. Our new main task is to meet up with Zhongxiong's forces.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Major said nothing else, turning his attention to directing the soldiers to continue fighting while Xiaoyun waited for other buildings to move first.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a minute of waiting, he could see the first truck driving by 2nd sstreet, heading straight to the first building.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seconds later, another truck came. Then another, until both lanes of the road was filled up with trucks heading West.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The first army took less than a minute as some of the trucks began to drive off, with the second army taking even faster.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone wanted to get out of the tiring battlefield, with gunshots still going off as Xiaoyun picked up one of the heavy machine gun and started firing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Commander! It's our turn now!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Xiaoyun looked over to 1st Street one last time, the number of zombies outside drastically decreased to around a hundred thousand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Given one or two more minute, he was certain his army could wipe them out. But that was assuming there would be no more zombie reinforcement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You all go first. I'll go last.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>None of the soldiers argued back, all accepting the order as the firepower against the zombie began to vanish.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Most of them stopped before even reaching the broken glass entrance and were rapidly approaching Xiaoyun's army.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Commander, everyone is retreated to the truck safely!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiaoyun didn't waste any longer, dropping the MG-42 as he ran straight towards the backdoor exit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Slamming the door shut and turning back around, he was a little confused by the truck already driving off into the distance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, turning his head to the right, he could see a pickup truck zooming straight through the street filled with zombie bodies.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Get on.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kate's reassuring voice made Xiaoyun let out a small sigh of relief as he ran around to enter inside the passenger seat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as she floored the gas pedal, the backdoors to buildings ahead were completely busted, flooding the road with zombies.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Shit! Sit tight!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>---\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When Xiaoyun and Kate arrived at the city center, the pickup truck was almost covered in blood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet it was still running perfectly fine, although the front had several small dents and mysterious body parts leaking out blood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Holy shit that was fun!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing Kate's thrilled face, Xiaoyun didn't try to put out her flame. Instead, he nodded in agreement to it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That was pretty crazy not going to lie... But we probably shouldn't do that again.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yeah...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the two of them jumped out of the cars, the soldiers were already setting up a primative defense around an park.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All the trucks were being fully unloaded, removing the last bit of ammo they had saved up for what was suppose to be the retreat ammo.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking over to few streets across was a massive city hall, with constant gunshots and small explosion coming out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The zombies were flooding from all three sides, and only a small fraction were heading in their direction.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A ton of the nearby buildings were also blown up, with concrete rubbles and even open flame still ravaging several of the office block.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was clear all the destruction were either some sort of heavy bombs, or missiles considering many of the collapsed buildings were at least twenty floor tall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Lingang!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Commander Xiaoyun!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the two reunited again, Xiaoyun quickly noticed several tanks inside the middle of the park itself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They all looked the same as the one his army once had—the same blue color with the Luoping paint barely visible over all the fainted red stains.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You found the tanks?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lingang quickly nodded, his face barely hiding how happy he looked as he showcased the two closer towards the tank.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The tank crew managed to bulldoze into the park and hide them in one of the bathrooms.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>We just found them when we first entered the building and noticed a rescue signal constantly being spammed out.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That's good to hear——\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Are you guys going to help us or not?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Wen Pi's voice appeared from the walkie-talkie, they both turned their attention back to the battlefield.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Lingang, you can direct this battle. Unless you want me or someone else to direct it instead.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The order caught Lingang a little off guard, but he soon realized this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes sir! I'm extremely happy to direct our army to victory!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing Lingang's face with a wide smile, Xiaoyun patted him on the back before signalling Kate to leave with him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Great... Don't disappoint me again.\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1562,"2026-06-10T06:59:51.848Z",1,"novelbin.me","16961c6ec844e80cd5da6aa5915688f390f25ae2548ef8af85149ebb9afecdb2","zombie-apocalypse-creation-chapter-769","zombie-apocalypse-creation-chapter-768",829,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fzombie-apocalypse-creation-cover.jpg"]
