The military matters were largely consistent with the previous life.
According to the original trajectory, the Haiyuan Town shelter would receive a large number of survivors from Haixin City and nearby towns.
Three months later, the zombies in Haixin City began to form a zombie tide, heading south and passing through Haiyuan Town.
At that time, the military had two options: one was to move east, and the other was to move west.
The advantage of moving west was maximum distance from the zombie tide, ensuring greater safety. The disadvantage was being further from the Qiongzhou Strait, making it potentially more difficult to cross the sea later.
Moving east, although only tens of kilometers away from the zombies and risking continued pursuit, offered a clear advantage. It was facing the sea from the mainland, providing opportunities to cross.
This was because of the disagreement between military factions at the time.
One side, comprising a reinforced regiment and a group of evolved individuals, advocated for moving east. At that time, the sea had not yet been heavily affected by mutated beasts. Thus, they believed that even if pursued by zombies, they could simply cross the sea to Guangdong province and rendezvous with the main force.
The other faction, led by the Army Division Commander, argued for moving west to distance themselves from the zombies, prioritizing the safety of ordinary people. They reasoned that even if they crossed the sea, there wouldn't be enough ships for the general populace.
Ultimately, unable to convince each other, the military in Haiyuan Town split into two.
The reinforced regiment and the evolved individuals led a small portion of people eastward, while the rest moved westward.
This was a clear divergence between the elite group and the general public.
Of course, neither side was pursued by zombies, and they subsequently established two shelters.
"Heh, the military… no chance of division this lifetime."
Wang Yu took a sip of his tea, a smile playing on his lips as he glanced at the sky outside the window.
"In this life, everything on South Sea Island will be mine!"
...
After arranging the plans for Hai Chen Garden with Feng Qing and Huang Sen, Wang Yu returned to Haixin Normal University.
His influence was now on a stable track, with firearms, ammunition, a large number of personnel, and several evolved individuals. He could now begin the plan to retake Haidian Island.
Wang Yu had tasked Feng Qing and Huang Sen with training the people in Hai Chen Garden to deal with zombies and gradually clear the surrounding zombies.
He had also briefed Lin Shaohui and Han Yu, asking them to assist.
Wang Yu's mission was to lead this group of college student survivors to the medical university to continue killing zombies, collecting insect crystals, and gathering student survivors.
This was to achieve the goal of "fighting to sustain the fight."
The medical university housed numerous medical personnel and expert professors, whom Wang Yu deemed essential talent resources.
They had been part of his plan for a long time.
The next morning, everyone gathered at the entrance of the university cafeteria.
After half a day of rest, everyone's spirits were noticeably improved.
This was their first real rest since the apocalypse began, akin to a holiday.
Although they had spent over ten hours in Wang Yu's secret cave before, it couldn't be called rest.
Wang Yu could release them at any moment and demand they fight.
Moreover, the secret cave had limited space, and with so many people in the dim, lightless environment, resting properly was impossible.
Therefore, this half-day was the first time they truly felt relaxed.
Wang Yu scanned everyone, a smile gracing his lips for the first time in front of them. "Now, I ask you, are zombies still scary?"
"Not scary!!!" everyone roared in unison.
"Do you want to become stronger?"
"Yes!!!"
"Good! Pack your things and re-enter the cave. When you emerge, you will be at the medical university."
