"Uh-huh, sure. Very likely story." Kate murmured as they arrived all the way back to the burnt-up truck.
With the sa boxes created on the other side of the truck, they quickly jumped past the burnt truck before throwing a match at the box.
After getting past all the roadblocks, they were finally back at the camp's entrance.
As they walked past the soldiers, they didn't seem to notice them missing at all, as they had only been gone for less than an hour.
"Okay, ti to execute the plan."

As nightti approached, Xiaoyun called up all five of the Colonels to show up at the HQ tents.
When they all stood before the map, he finally began to reveal his plan to the five of them.
"You all know why we ca here?" Xiaoyun asked.
After a short silence, one of the Colonel finally spoke up.
"To defend the bridge from the zombie horde?"
"Not exactly... We're actually here to deal with the zombie horde that had been gathering in Shenzhen and Dongguan.
But rather than just defending, we're going to lure them here to relieve so of the pressure from Yiming's army."
"But how are we going to lure them here? Are we going to move those roadblocks on the bridge?"
"Nope, we're going to leave those bridges the way it is... But I have already ordered several helicopters to begin flying towards here."
All of the Colonel looked a little confused until one of them realized what Xiaoyun was trying to do.
"Commander, are you going to use the helicopter to lure the zombies here?"
"Bingo. That's the plan I have in mind. All we have to do is to gather all those zombies towards the bridge.
Then, the roadblocks will serve as filters to reduce the amount they can pass through at once."
"Commander, I thought the zombie horde was only forming in Shenzhen. When did we have to deal with two?"
The third Colonel curiously asked as it didn't match the information they had gotten at the start.
"New developnt inside the Dongguan... But we're going to deal with Shenzhen first."
"Any questions before I pass out the orders you guys need to do?" Xiaoyun asked.
"Commander, how big exactly is the number of zombies we are facing?" The fourth Colonel curiously asked.
"Over a million. Anything else?"
Within seconds, he could see the Colonels looking a little scared yet excited at the sa ti.
"Please pass this out."
After each of them had gotten the piece of the paper, Xiaoyun began going in-depth with his plan.
"12th Division, I need you to move the burnt-up truck slightly to allow a car through.
It should be big enough for a person to walk through, and then I want your army division to begin defending it on the other side.
There should be one hundred people stationed there, and they should be ready to evacuate to the other at a mont's notice.
The rest of your army will be guarding the coastline... I want to make sure not a single zombie tries to swim over, just in case."
The 12th Division's Colonel nodded in agreent as Xiaoyun turned over to the other Colonel.
"And for 13th and 14th, continue setting up the bridge defense and make sure that all car wreckages don't block the line of fire.
If any of them get in the way, you can move them aside or just throw them over the river."
Both of the Colonels nodded as Xiaoyun turned to the fourth and the fifth Colonel.
"And for you two... Stand by and be ready to rotate for the other soldiers when the fighting continues."
With all of the Colonels receiving their orders, Xiaoyun dismissed them before heading back out to the makeshift airfield.
After standing at the makeshift airfield for ten minutes, a loud engine sound could finally be heard from the distance.
Xiaoyun and Kate watched as the helicopter slowly descended back down onto the makeshift airfield.
As the blade stopped spinning, two soldiers quickly exited the vehicle before heading over to Xiaoyun.
"Captain of the 3rd Air Company reporting Commander!" The first one stated out loud.
"Captain of the 4th Air Company reporting Commander!" The second one stated out loud next.
"Nice to et you both. Is there only one helicopter?" Xiaoyun curiously asked, rembering he had requested two.
"Um, the other helicopter's engine broke down. The engineer are trying their best to repair it."
"It's fine."
As the pilot exited the helicopter, Xiaoyun shook hands with him as well before bringing the three to the HQ tent.
After handing them the paper and waiting for them to finish reading it, Xiaoyun finally decided to ask his question.
"Do you guys think this is doable?"
"Yes... But there's a slight risk." The first Captain replied.
"What's the risk?"
"You might have known this, but we had lost a helicopter before due to zombies jumping from the buildings.
And there have been so mutants that have shot... projectile at us that broke the rotor blades."
"But it should be fine if you guys fly at a high altitude, right? And just to be away from the building.
The zombies hordes themselves are already out of the city, at least for the one in Shenzhen."
After a short silence, the two started discussing with the pilot as they pointed around the map for a path.
"How are we going to distract the zombie horde with just a helicopter? It might not be the most noisy thing out there."
As soon as the pilot asked the question, Xiaoyun's worries finally disappeared, as he already had an idea for it.
"Don't worry about the noise. All you guys have to worry about is flying the plane safely.
I'll show you guys what I have stored for it... I'm sure you guys are going to enjoy it."

Two days later...
As Xiaoyun's army had everything set up on the bridges, it was finally ti to execute the plan.
Several soldiers helped load a small crate into the helicopter before it flew up into the sky.
With the helicopter flying away into the distance, all of the soldiers imdiately went back to their position.
anwhile, Xiaoyun and Kate were standing on a watchtower, watching everything unfold in the distance.
"Are you sure this plan is going to work?" Kate asked curiously after seeing what was in the crate.
"I'm sure of it... Nothing can be louder than that if it goes off in the middle of the air."
As the two looked down to the bridge, tens of thousands of soldiers were fully alert and had their mounted machine guns ready.
The ammo box was full, and we were ready to replenish as much ammo as needed for the frontline.
On the bridge itself, both Colonels had decided to remove all the car wreckages, removing potential cover for the zombies.
Still, the massive burn semi-truck on the other side of the bridge remained, narrowing the gap to be much smaller.
Lastly, at the end of the bridge, there was a much smaller defense, with only a few sandbags.
More importantly, there were five cars on each line right before the semi-truck, with massive gas cans in each car.
It was the most prepared Xiaoyun had ever done for a single place, as right below the watch tower was the artillery.
All of them were aid directly at the middle of the bridge, ready to sink it as a last-ditch effort.
Along the river were a few motorboats, with thousands of soldiers all standing along the coast.
Looking at the ti, there were still thirty minutes before the battle began.
"You don't want to go to the frontline?"
Kate curiously asked as Xiaoyun remained on the watch tower as ti went on.
" going there is only going to distract the soldiers from their duty... I'll go there when they need ."

anwhile, all the way over in Shenzhen...
As a helicopter flew past Dongguan at the highest altitude possible, they could definitely feel the zombie horde below.
Right at the city center, hundreds of thousands of zombies gathered below, growling at them on the ground.
Still, they continue ahead, flying down south towards where the map had located the zombie horde the last ti it had been tracked.
Just as they were about to reach halfway to Shenzhen, they suddenly saw a massive zombie horde in the distance.
"Wait! I think that's the zombie horde... Can you fly a little lower?" The first captain asked.
As the helicopter began descending, both captains could finally see the zombies more clearly below.
Within seconds, they were shocked as the entire highway was filled with zombies to the brim.
It was way more than the million that was described, at least five tis that number.
Still, they pressed on rather than going back, as they rembered what Xiaoyun had told them the night before.
"Not over ten million... Right?"
"Yeah."
