Chapter 250

"Ahem..."

Peng Shaowei cleared his throat.

Then, in a loud voice, he declared, "Everyone, since we are all here, our mobilization assembly officially begins now!"

His voice was powerful and full of grandeur.

All eyes were instantly drawn to him.

The crowd turned to face the front of the training ground, where a raised platform stood.

Peng Shaowei stood alone on the platform, exuding a calm and serious aura.

"Fellow comrades, the zombie virus has invaded, and our fellow citizens have suffered greatly!

Once vibrant lives are now mere cold, lifeless shells.

They have occupied the city center, wreaking havoc on our homes.

Turning our once beautiful world into a desolate wasteland.

Leaving those who have managed to survive facing the constant threat of death.

They are not static.

On the contrary, they are growing increasingly violent and stronger!

If we do not eliminate them quickly, our chances of survival will diminish with each passing day.

I'm sure you've all heard about the major crisis we faced at the Western Base recently.

The zombie horde approached with overwhelming force.

If it weren't for the support of the other bases, our situation would have been dire.

This serves as a warning to all of us.

If we do not take action and launch a proactive attack,

When those zombies become even stronger, we humans will have no chance to even survive on the brink of extinction!

So...

This is the purpose of gathering everyone here today.

Let us work together, and no matter how difficult it gets, do not give up!

I believe that the new world is waiting for us just around the corner!

Brothers and sisters, let's fight with everything we've got!"

Peng Shaowei's speech was passionate and full of vigor.

His words painted vivid images of the ruined cityscape in everyone's minds.

Scenes of loved ones and companions being bitten by zombies flashed before their eyes.

Many people's eyes reddened with emotion, their hearts swelling with determination.

They felt an overwhelming urge to go out and kill some zombies to vent their anger.

As Peng Shaowei finished his last sentence, the crowd roared in unison.

"Fight with everything we've got!"

The sound was thunderous, like the call to battle.

At that moment, everyone's hearts seemed to unite as one.

There was only one goal: to kill the zombies!

The mobilization assembly lasted for about an hour.

In addition to the inspiring speech, Peng Shaowei also explained the detailed battle plan using a chalkboard.

He divided all the participants into groups.

This time, the people from the various bases were mostly the main combatants from their respective bases.

Of course, no base would send all of its combat strength.

After all, each base still needed people to defend it.

However, even so, the number of participants in this operation was around twelve thousand.

Peng Shaowei's plan was to start from the Western Base, splitting the forces into two groups.

One group on the left and one on the right.

They would adopt a strategy of surrounding the cities from the countryside, starting with the easier targets.

First, they would take over a village, then a town, and finally a city.

Step by step.

This way, they could kill zombies, collect supplies, and improve their abilities simultaneously.

The plan was unanimously approved by everyone.

Finally, it was time to divide the teams.

This was something Peng Shaowei had carefully considered.

He had divided the participants based on the true strength of each base's reported personnel.

Peng Shaowei's Western Base and Tang Yanchi's Xiangrui Base were grouped together.

Another 27 bases joined them.

Yun Xiaoxiao's Yun City and Jiang Huai's Rongsheng Base were grouped together.

The remaining 31 bases were assigned to their group.

Zheng Xin'er's Yangcheng Base, Wang Dahai's Dahai Base, and the Glory Military Base, which had previously mocked Yun Xiaoxiao for having a small group, were also in this group.

After the mobilization assembly, Peng Shaowei found Yun Xiaoxiao.

He discussed the matter of supplies with her.

Yun Xiaoxiao smiled, "Don't worry, every seven days, someone will deliver the necessary supplies."

"Good."

Peng Shaowei felt relieved.

Initially, when they were taking over smaller areas, it was uncertain whether they would collect enough supplies.

At this point, they needed Yun Xiaoxiao to ensure the food supply.

Otherwise, they might run out of energy before they finished killing the zombies.

With Yun Xiaoxiao's assurance, Peng Shaowei felt much more at ease.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Now, they just had to wait for the official battle to begin tomorrow!

"Oh, right, this is Bai Hongting, the base leader of the Northern Base."

Peng Shaowei suddenly remembered the person behind him and quickly introduced him to Yun Xiaoxiao.

Yun Xiaoxiao nodded toward Bai Hongting.

"Uncle Bai, it's nice to see you again."

"Yes, it's good to see you again." Bai Hongting pursed his lips.

He didn't know why, but every time he saw this young lady, he felt a sense of closeness.

Peng Shaowei was surprised, "You two know each other?"

Bai Hongting smiled and recounted how he met Yun Xiaoxiao.

Of course, he omitted the part about wanting to adopt her as his daughter.

He didn't want Bai Ruo to feel upset.

Actually, things were fine the way they were now.

Back then, he wanted to adopt her as his daughter because he found her endearing, and another reason was seeing her alone and wanting to provide her with a safe place to stay.

But due to certain circumstances, that wish couldn't be fulfilled.

He had always felt a bit of regret.

But now, seeing the young lady so radiant and with so many people protecting her, he felt at ease.

"I didn't expect you two to have such a connection." Peng Shaowei sighed.

"Indeed."

Bai Hongting chuckled, "Brother Peng, your speech today left a deep impression on me. I believe your plan is indeed necessary.

I would like to participate in tomorrow's battle to experience it firsthand."

"That would be most welcome!"

"Then we'll join Xiaoxiao's group."

"No problem."

Following that, Peng Shaowei gathered the leaders of the various bases together.

They discussed some details about tomorrow's operation.

Yun Xiaoxiao wasn't fond of such gatherings, so she sent Lei Ming instead.

He was the most suitable among them to attend.

Lu Chen was naturally quiet, and being there would probably feel worse than sitting in prison for him.

Nie Yizhou talked too much, which might affect others' perception of their base.

Xiao Feng had a bad temper, and she worried he might start a fight with someone.

Zheng Yuner, Tao Mi'er, and Liu Tao were too young and lacked experience dealing with important figures, so they wouldn't be able to hold their own.

Therefore, the responsibility fell on Lei Ming.

Mu Yang was managing the base, otherwise, he would have been a good fit too.

Yun Xiaoxiao and the others strolled to the training ground, waiting for dinner.

Due to the large number of people, many stoves and large pots were set up on the training ground.

Peng Shaowei's idea was that since this was the last meal before the battle, they should have a good feast.

A good omen for the fight ahead.

At the moment, the training ground was packed with people.

Groups of three and two gathered together, chatting.

Suddenly, a blood-curdling scream rang out.
