Zombie Apocalypse: Creation
Chapter 63: Chapter 63: The Military

One week has pass since Yezi's left the trade post and became full time working as Rescue Department as Yezi had renamed.

Yuqi and Xiaoyun was able to set up plan for another mini-department, an trading department that trades foods for goods, as well as communicating with them what the town needs from the city without needing to send soldiers to go to the city themselves.

Yueyue had retired from being apart of the militia, with Wuli being elected to replace her as the militia leader.

Instead of her original plan to be an store guard, she instead became Yuqi's secretary as Xiaoyun didn't want her to risk getting hurt.

The hospital and school was also fully built now and opened, as Shuli became the principle and Leyan becoming the head nurse.

Since the two building project was finished, the construction crew went back to building more housing, but this time it was concrete building with plumbing and everything inside it rather than just cabin.

As well as cutting down more of the forest behind the walls to make space for more building.

The commercial sector didn't attract much attention as the two have hoped, as most people didn't want to risk their money going down the drain trying to start a business.

Still, some of the people who had stay in the town for much longer were willing to risk it, as they had saved enough money and were getting tired of construction or farm as two had predicted.

Beside all these town growth, what was most important to Xiaoyun wasn't the town. It was the three of them entering the 2nd semester as their belly started becoming visible.

People were starting to noticed the three's bulging belly as they walked on the streets to work. Rumor soon spread among the new groups that had just moved to the town.

But then the rumor was confirmed to be true as the people who had stay longer in the town simply told them about the relationship between the four and their wedding.

At first, many of the new people felt it was immoral and wrong between the four. However after a while, nobody cared as people were more focused with their work and being so tired from the mandatory training.

Meanwhile for Yezi, the rescue department has been going through ups and downs. As it managed to saved over hundred people within a week and replace several brand new cars and even an van to use, leading to massively growth to the town as it reaches almost three hundred people.

However many of the missions became more and more risky as the soldiers were getting injured from escaping from zombies. Three even died from a mutant zombie that attacked them by surprise.

When Yezi delivered the news to the two, it made Yuqi wanting to put a stop to the mission. However Xiaoyun stopped Yuqi's plan to stop it.

"Why don't you let me end this? The risk is getting bigger and bigger everyday. Almost a fifth of the rescue mission has triggered a zombie horde to chase after them. Its just an disaster waiting to happen." Yuqi argued.

"Yezi and the soldiers don't want to end it. They know what they signed up for. Beside, they are also saving more lives. Without them, those people would of eventually starved to death or be bitten by zombies, or even create hostile organization against us." Xiaoyun argued back.

"We already have enough people in the town, its already reaching its max capacity."

"We can simply just expand towards the forest behind the mansions here, after we finish expanding the area between the wall and the mansions." Xiaoyun pointed at the map.

"How about food? We don't have enough to keep this going."

"The farm harvest has been getting bigger and bigger. By the end of next month, we will be able to fully self-sustain ourselves. I wouldn't even need to create more food anymore."

"Not to mention the weather here is year-round, so we can keep growing and continue to expand the farm as well." Xiaoyun brought out the food records and pointed at it.

"I think Xiaoyun's right. The people in the outskirt needs our help." Yueyue decided to chime in.

"Fine, I guess we let Yezi continue." Yuqi finally folded.

Suddenly someone knocked on the door.

Xiaoyun went to open it only to see Yiming and Wuli standing outside.

"What wrong?" Xiaoyun led the two inside.

"The military just contacted us." Yiming replied.

"Like a phone call or something?" Yuqi asked.

"No, they are here right now. Outside the gate."

"You serious? They are outside the gate right now?" Xiaoyun asked again as all three of their faces looked in shock at Yiming who nodded.

"Yes, I'm serious. They have several mechanized vehicles outside the gates."

"How many people is there? What do they want?" Yueyue asked.

"I estimated them to have twenty soldier only... it seem more like a refugee group that just fled from military base or something since they also have several buses of civilians as well. They had only asked for food." Yiming replied back.

"You could of said that earlier... let go see what they want. You two stay here okay?" Xiaoyun followed Yiming and Wuli out of the office.

When Xiaoyun and the other two got on the stairs of the wall, the wall garrison were all readying their rifle.

"Hello, I'm the town's mayor. Can I ask what do you need?" Xiaoyun took out an megaphone and spoke through it.

One of them stepped out of the car and yelled back.

"We just want food and we will be on our way. However if you don't give us food, we will be forced to enter the town here." The man yelled back.

"How much do you need?"

"Enough to feed an hundred people for a week."

"That too much, we can't give you that much."

"How about for five days?" Another man stepped out the car and yelled back.

"At most I can give you guys fifty people worth of food for two days. Or you guys can give us the civilian and we can feed them."

"How can we trust you that you will treat them right?" The one on the left asked.

"I can give you two a tour of the town and you can say it for yourself."

The two hesitated and went back inside the car. After few minute, the two came back out.

"Sure, we can do that." The two soldier walked up to the front of the bridge as Xiaoyun signal to lower the bridge.

The two entered inside the town as the bridge is lifted back up.

The two and Xiaoyun got on an car and started driving around the town.

After an hour later, they finally arrived back to the gate.

"What do you think?"

"This town is perfect. I will report this to our superior to see if we can let the civilian go to your town." The two left the town and went back inside the vehicle.

"Our general had agreed to it, however you will still need to supply us thirty people worth of food for a week."

"Sure we can do that. Just give us ten minute." Xiaoyun spoke to several of the soldier to get the car and go get food from the storage.

Ten minute later, the soldier drove back with the canned food in the back of the pick-up truck.

Xiaoyun signal to lower the bridge, allowing the car to drove outside to the military.

"You guys can count the boxes of food. It should be enough for a week." Xiaoyun replied back.

Several of the soldier inside the mechanized vehicle got out and started loading the food into their jeep at the back.

"Look like they have thirty soldier then." Wuli commented.

"No, they just have fifteen. They double their number since we have almost fifty people on the wall. They are a little intimidated by our soldier and militia so they are bluffing it." Yiming gave his idea.

"You probably right, but I don't want conflict with the military. They get their food and we get the people." Xiaoyun acknowledged Yiming's statement.

"Thank you! You guys can go inside the bus to get the civilian." The mechanized vehicle and several of the jeep behind it drove off as the outside now just have three buses outside.

"Well time for more people to the town, and more work." Xiaoyun sighed.

Two day since the incident from the military, Xiaoyun and Yuqi was able to devised an emergency plan to settle a hundred people into the town. With temporary tents as their shelter.

The construction crew was working overtime to build more houses, not to mention it now have a brand new wave of people working here.

However, most people in the buses were white collar worker. Some got injured and had to go to the hospital after working for two days there. Still, nobody complained as the houses built were meant for them to live in.

After three more day, the town was now back on it's track as everyone settled down. With the town on its way to hit five hundred people living there.
