Zombie Apocalypse: Creation

Three day has passed since the night with Shuli and Wuli.

As much as Xiaoyun wanted to stay with the two, he had to move back early as Yiming called him to come back.

"What's wrong?" Xiaoyun asked as he entered the command center next that used to be the former security room.

"There's a massive zombie horde moving in all four exit out of the city."

"How massive?" Xiaoyun got confused by Yiming's statement.

"Every single one of our soldiers that were on the rescue mission got attacked... Luckily Jixi withdraw all the soldiers back home early after noticing something was off...

Then few hours after that, the same platoon leader that visited few months ago came back." Yiming explained.

"The soldier that took our food?" Xiaoyun remembered the food that they gave for safety zone.

"Yes, he just came by to warn us that there has an mass exodus with zombies leaving the cities... and it's not just Guangzhou, but all military theater next to major cities are facing this issue as well.

The outpost counted the zombies to be around one hundred thousand zombies." Despite the massive number, Yiming said it calmly.

"What should we do then? " Xiaoyun noticed Yiming seem to already have a plan.

"We don't have to do anything, we just need to put rescue mission on a pause for now... and we need to withdraw everyone out from the other town." Yiming added the last part.

"Why? Don't we already have a wall there? And we already got soldiers there as well." Xiaoyun didn't wanted to abandon the settlement they had just built.

"It's not enough. We don't have enough equipment there, nor do we have the ammo or factories to support a two front war...

Beside, we can always go back to it later. Zombies won't break the buildings there if no one is there." Yiming reassured Xiaoyun's worries.

Xiaoyun thought for quite a while, then finally folded to Yiming's suggestion.

"But do we have enough time to evacuate almost four thousand people back here?" Xiaoyun remembered a new wave of people had just moved to the new town.

"We got around two days before they get here according to our outpost monitoring the zombies." Yiming replied back.

"That's nowhere near enough time to evacuate all of them." Xiaoyun realized the transport they have.

"It's enough. If all of them walk from the town and come back here, it's only going to take around almost entire day." Yiming pointed at the map and the distance between the two town.

"That's going to be extremely hard to manage... four thousand people walking on the road." Xiaoyun sighed.

"Either that or we just abandon the people there." Yiming gave Xiaoyun two options.

"We can't abandon them. I-I can't let that happen." Xiaoyun refused Yiming's second option.

Yiming already knew what Xiaoyun was going to pick as he pointed to the outside.

"All the soldiers are already outside... you going to need to do the rest. I'm a bit tired." Yiming sat down on the chair.

"Thank you..." Xiaoyun bowed down in gratitude and left.

The evacuation was much harder than Xiaoyun could ever imagine.

Xiaoyun first send all the buses and trucks to transport the elderly and children from Qijing back to Luoping.

When Wuli and Shuli heard the news, they looked shocked but didn't disagree with Xiaoyun and Yiming's decisions.

They both went along with the plan as Shuli assisted the soldiers moving where the elderly and children are located while Wuli's lead her company to walk with some of the civilians back to Luoping.

Meanwhile Xiaoyun lead the nine company to walk alongside the majority of the people in Qijing back to Luoping, which took almost an entire day as Yiming described it to be.

Luckily nobody was complaining out loud during the trip, and most people were fit enough to walk it as they already had mandatory training while living in the town.

When Yuqi heard the news about the all four thousand moving back, she slam the table in frustration.

"What the hell is this? How has no one told me about this?" Yuqi looked out the administrative window, only to see almost massive crowd lining up outside that extend all the way to the training field.

"It's an emergency. There's a massive zombie horde attacking soon, and Yiming and I had decided to withdraw from Qijing for now. We only have one more day to prepare" Xiaoyun explained.

"You know how hard it is to settle that much people at once? We don't even have that much housing left to house them." Yuqi stood up.

"I-It's fine. It's just going to last at most a week after the zombies horde is defeated. They will all be back to Qijing afterward." Xiaoyun tried to calm Yuqi down.

"Easy for you to say... Whatever, Nami you can go back home early." Yuqi glanced at Nami's belly, which has been very visible due to her small body. Despite only being around two month pregnant.

"O-Okay." Nami replied.

"I will go sort out the crowd outside for now... is our house finish expanding?" Xiaoyun asked leaving.

"No, it's still under construction. We are living in Shuli and Wuli's old house and the house next door right now." Yuqi replied back.

"Okay." Xiaoyun left the office.

After a hectic afternoon, Xiaoyun and Yuqi was able to move all four thousand people to live alongside the ten thousand people in the town by forcing every house to take in an extra family.

Although there was massive complain initially, but after Xiaoyun announced the news that a massive zombies horde is incoming, everyone's attention immediately turned to the martial law that had been declared.

All militia members were put onto duty alongside the soldiers. With all commercial district being put on pause and factory working overtime.

Unlike in the past where everyone was required to defend the wall, Xiaoyun and Yiming both decided to remove that rule as the walls simply doesn't have enough space to hold that much people.

Unfortunately, Yezi couldn't join any of the meeting or plan as Huayi were finally going through labor.

Both Xiaoyun and Yiming were fine with Yezi going to check on Huayi instead of being next to them as everything was already put in place.

As the night fall, Xiaoyun alongside with Wuli and Shuli went to Wuli's and Shuli's old house before they moved.

All four of them alongside Lily were already there waiting for Xiaoyun to come back home.

"You guys don't have to wait for me to eat." Xiaoyun sat down.

"It's basic etiquette... by the way, how is Wuli and Shuli?" Leyan asked.

Wuli and Shuli's face blushes as they sat down next to Xiaoyun.

"H-How do you already know that?" Xiaoyun looked confused.

"The way they look, it just feels different." Leyan gave a vague answer.

Yueyue and Yuqi both nodded in agreement, but Nami looked confused just like Xiaoyun.

"What are you guys talking about?" Lily decided to speak up.

"Um i-it's nothing. L-Let's start eating." Xiaoyun immediately replied back and started eating.

---

After eating, all of them beside left to the other house as it couldn't fit that much people on the bed.

Only Leyan and Nami stayed with Xiaoyun in the house. Although the three didn't do anything for the night as Xiaoyun was too tired from walking the whole day.

The next morning, Xiaoyun was woken up by his phone ringing.

"What wrong?"

"The zombies are within an hour distance now." Yiming voice came out.

"Okay, I'm coming to the wall right now." Xiaoyun hung up and got up from the bed.

"What's wrong honey?" Leyan and Nami were both waken up by Xiaoyun's phone call.

"Nothing, you guys can keep sleeping." Xiaoyun changed his cloths and went to the restroom.

After getting all ready, Xiaoyun got on his car and drove pass the inner wall, and got to the outer wall.

Yiming and Yezi were both already on the wall looking outside.

"How's the situation?" Xiaoyun asked.

"It's about forty-five minute... All the soldiers and militia are already in position. Now we can only wait." Yiming replied.

Few cars appeared outside as the gate was lowered to let them in.

"Now all the soldiers in the outpost are back... Time to wait and see if our defense hold up." Yezi replied back this time.

After a short silence, Xiaoyun decided to speak up.

"Yezi, how's Huayi?" Xiaoyun asked.

"She's doing fine, she gave birth to a healthy boy." Yezi replied as he put down his binoculars.

"That's good to hear..." Xiaoyun sat down and waited like the other soldiers on the wall.

After waiting for thirty minute, they could finally see the zombies with their eyes.

It was nowhere near one hundred thousands zombies that was counted, rather half of it.

"Look like a lot of zombies got lost or went the other way." Yezi pointed out.

"Good news for us... bad news for others." Yiming commented.

"Going to be a long battle..." Xiaoyun sighed as he stood up, with all the soldiers standing up as well as they could see the zombies in the distance.
