Zombie Apocalypse: Creation

Chapter 453: Humen Bridge and Warehouses



The two were right at where G9411, or the Humen Bridge for its actual name.

Just like they imagined, the entire bridge itself was completely roadblocked to the brim.

In the distance, there were remains of burnt-up cars and trucks, with some being abandoned that had been completely flipped over.

Meanwhile, up close, hundreds of sandbags were positioned right on the roads, with the makeshift defense already in place.

It was clear that this was all done by someone right after the outbreak, trying to block Dongguan zombies from entering.

But it failed to do anything, as the roadblock's maker didn't think that Guangzhou itself was a hotbed for the zombie outbreak.

After analyzing the bridge condition, Xiaoyun came up with the conclusion that the zombies could hypothetically climb over all the roadblocks.

All the cars were simply not enough to block the zombies, as he had seen zombies climbing what appeared to be impossible angles.

From 91-degree tilt to flat walls to even diagonal walls that go vertically up like an upside-down pyramid.

There was simply no 'real' solution to stop zombies from going to a place if they really tried to unless there was an ocean or a giant river.

"Why are we here?"

Kate curiously asked, looking a little confused as to why Xiaoyun had ordered her to drive here early in the morning.

"Because this is going to be a battleground soon. Anyway, you can drive back now."

Xiaoyun didn't explain it any further, so Kate started to drive the car back to Luoping.

After a few minutes of driving, they were already back at the entrance of Luoping as they drove past the security checkpoint.

"Where are we going now?"

"Logistic office... I need to go talk to the head of the department."

With another minute of driving, the two finally arrived at the parking lot right outside the training field.

As they exited the car and headed towards the entrance, they could feel the security was much tighter than before.

There were almost guards constantly patrolling around, with everyone seemingly much more alerted.

"Good morning, Hou Qin... Are you ready to transcript the plan?"

With a nod, the two headed inside her office as Kate stood outside the doorway.

"I want you to send the order to Yiming so that he can maintain its original plan without worrying about the zombie horde.

Next, I want him to lure the zombies over to the Humen bridge, helicopter, or whatever tools he had in reserve."

After giving Hou Qin some time to note it down, Xiaoyun continued.

"You can also send this information over to Yezi... And there's no need to inform Lingang about it.

I also want to have one of the two newly recruited army corps set up camp near this area and this area.

They will be training in these areas instead... The other one will continue to train at Luoping.. "

As Xiaoyun pointed at several areas on the table map, Hou Qin quickly noted the location in her notebook.

"Lastly, I want the logistics department to get ready to supply those troops, both in equipment and food.

I will personally go with them and lead the army corp myself. Any questions or issues?"

Hou Qin didn't reply right away. She re-read the list several times before looking at her laptop.

After waiting for three minutes, she finally spoke up.

"Commander... I don't think we have the food to start this expedition. At least not until next month."

"I'll deal with the food issue myself. All I need you to do is get ready to manage the supply."

"Yes, sir."

As Xiaoyun and Kate headed towards the storage unit, an entire squad was standing right at the entrance.

"Good morning, Commander!" The squad yelled out loud.

"Good morning, comrades... Ahem, you're all dismissed early for today."

Xiaoyun's sudden announcement confused the squad a little, but the squad leader didn't question his decision.

"Why are we going here?" Kate asked curiously again, confused by why Xiaoyun was bringing them to the storage unit.

"Can you just stand here and watch guard? I don't want anyone from entering inside until I come out."

Kate wanted to ask why, but she remained silent as she moved to where the squad was standing earlier.

With no one in the entire military storage unit, Xiaoyun headed straight to the food storage.

After arriving at the warehouse, he easily unlocked it before taking a step inside.

Just as he expected, there were only a few crates left in the storage unit. But it wasn't because there wasn't any food in Luoping.

On the contrary, Luoping had a large influx of food—one from the food being sent from Changsha and the other from Foshan's fishery.

Not to mention the slow increase in agricultural products that was starting to take place, at least in theory.

In reality, the low number in the military storage unit was due to the surplus of food being located in the civilian branch.

"Yuqi will be fuming if she learns about this... I'm better off just making them myself."

Not wasting any time, Xiaoyun began to imagine crates of canned food right in front of him.

Within seconds, stacks upon stacks of food appeared before he moved to the other side and did the same.

After repeating the process for almost the entire afternoon, he had finally filled up all three of the military warehouses with food.

"Xiaoyun, you okay?"

Kate worriedly ran up to him as he almost fell onto the floor while walking towards the exit.

"I'm fine——"

Before Xiaoyun could finish, Kate quickly flipped him over and carried him in her arms.

"Don't move, okay? Just rest up... I'll bring you to the car."

As the two headed towards the parking lot, they ran right into a squad that was coming over for the afternoon shift.

Fortunately for Xiaoyun, they didn't seem to notice who was resting in Kate's arm as she gently loaded him into the backseats.

With the car started up again, Kate began to drive back to their home as Xiaoyun leaned back in the car seats.

A few minutes later...

As the two arrived inside the garage, Xiaoyun was mostly fine now, being able to walk out normally into the living room without Kate's help.

"Welcome back... How's work today?" Leyan asked as she helped Xiaoyun take off his jacket.

"Pretty good... Everything fine at home?" Xiaoyun asked as Kate entered the living room as well.

"Yeah..."

"Where are Wuli and Shuli?" Xiaoyun asked curiously as he noticed the two of them missing.

"They already headed back to their job post to begin transitioning," Leyan replied as she started playing with the babies.

"Oh, that's faster than I thought... I expected them to at least stay with their baby for more than a month."

As Xiaoyun started playing with Bingbing and Wenwen in their crib, Kate joined in with Leyan in playing with the babies.

"They are only going there for an hour every day until after the end of next month. Except for today, since it's the first day back."

Xiaoyun didn't question it as he knew the two were never really the type who were willing to stay at home taking care of babies.

"Sorry for putting all this work onto you like this."

Xiaoyun suddenly apologized, as everyone had pushed the babies for her to handle.

"It's fine. I don't think this is work at all... I kind of like taking care of them. You know, they aren't like those three who keep on crying."

As soon as Leyan finished talking, the two of them both laughed as he knew exactly what she was talking about.

"Why are you guys laughing?" Kate asked in confusion.

"Don't worry about it..."

As the afternoon soon came to an end, the kid's mothers all began to return home one by one.

With Lily and Anna returning home at last, everyone was at the dining table getting ready to eat.

"Ahem, everyone, I have an announcement to make before we start eating."

Everyone turned their attention to Xiaoyun, waiting for him to reveal what it was.

"I'm going to be gone... For two days. Or for a week. But no later than by the end of the month——"

"Already? I thought you just headed out last month." Nami immediately interrupted before Xiaoyun could finish.

"Yeah, where are you going that you can't come back home within the same day?" Yueyue asked.

"I need to go direct an army to beat back the zombies. Don't worry, it's still in Guangzhou."

"In Guangzhou? There are no zombies in Guangzhou. What are you on about?" Yuqi questioned.

"It's not exactly in Guangzhou. It's at the bridge that connects Guangzhou and Dongguan."

The entire table fell into silence as they all knew what he was trying to imply.

But they still didn't want to see him take the risk of going outside, especially given his track records back in Foshan.

"Wait, I thought Yiming was already dealing with Dongguan." Wuli curiously pointed out.

"He is still dealing with it. I'm leading a reserved army to make sure that the zombies don't head towards this direction."
