Wei Ying drank some water before he said, "Captain Xun, I heard that Jin Xuyan and his team are staying here. Is that true?"
Xun Che nodded and said, "Captain Jin and his team are indeed staying in my base, but they are currently outside gathering supplies."
Hearing this, Wei Ying frowned and asked, "Do you know when they will return?"
"Captain Jin said it should be around a few days," Xun Che replied.
After a moment of pause, he asked, "Captain Wei, why did you ask about the Phantom team?"
"This time I came to ask for your help. A few days ago, a group of mercenaries spotted a zombie horde near the Lin'an border area. The number of zombies is around 1,000 and it keeps increasing. By now, the number should be around 2,000 or more," Wei Ying said.
Xun Che was taken aback by this news and asked, "Have you asked Jiangning base to send over people to help?"
Wei Ying nodded and replied, "I did, but they said they couldn't spare anyone. What's more, Pei Yijun was trapped before in the center of the horde and he cleared out some of the zombies during his escape."
The moment he heard this, Xun Che frowned and said, "So, they are using this as an excuse to wash their hands of the matter?"
"The situation in the survivor camp is messy, and the number of soldiers is not enough to hold off the zombie horde. We tried to hire the ability-users, but none agreed to stay," Wei Ying sighed.
Xun Che frowned deeply at his words. After a moment of thought, he asked, "What plan do you have?"
"I have contacted several camps to ask for reinforcements, but so far, none have given any positive response. I already told my people to prepare for evacuation. If I can't gather enough manpower to clear out the zombies, we might have to abandon the camp," Wei Ying replied.
Xun Che tapped his fingers on the table for a moment before he said, "I will send my people and help you evacuate the people. Bring them to my base. Until we take care of the zombie horde, we can only abandon the camp."
Wei Ying didn't expect him to take in so many people and said, "The number of survivors in the temporary camp is more than 30,000, while the amount of supplies we have at this moment is only enough for at most three days. Are you sure you want to take in so many people?"
Raising his eyebrows, Xun Che asked him back, "Besides this, do you have any other plans?" freewebnσvel.cøm
Wei Ying was stunned by his words. It was as he said, the risk of staying at the border with a zombie horde nearby was very high. Instead of waiting for reinforcements, evacuation was a better move, as it had a higher chance of survival.
"But, what about the supplies?" he asked.
"You don't have to worry about supplies. My team and the Phantom team will take care of that," Xun Che replied casually.
Then, he took out a folder from his soldier and handed it to Wei Ying while saying, "These are the regulations of my base. I don't have a problem taking in the survivors as long as they agree to follow the rules."
