The Last Rock Emperor - Chapter 154
Chapter 154 Prepare To Retreat
Facing the adoring gazes of countless people, Yifan pulled Ji Ruoxue along calmly. As his gaze flowed, he found a few familiar shadows on the huge banquet hall.
In a moment, he saw the figures of Li Hu and the others. However, it wasn’t just Li Hu, Li Hao, Li Li, Li Feng, Fang Mubai, and several other familiar faces.
It seemed that in this military base, all the familiar faces with Yi Fan had appeared at the banquet. It was obvious how much Huang Haibin valued Yi Fan.
Huang Haibin personally brought Yifan, Ji Ruoxue, and the others to the round table and everyone sat down.
Yi Fan, Ji Ruoxue, Qiang Zi, Wang Yang, Zhang Liang, Zhou Xin, the leader of the Evolution Realm beside Huang Haibin, the Mastiff Dog, and several other current military executives sat at the same table.
The rest of the Five Birds Squad members sat at a table. Li Hu, Li Hao, Li Li, Li Feng, and Fang Mubai sat at a table.
Everyone took their seats, and the originally noisy banquet immediately quieted down
In the early days of the apocalypse, such opportunities and atmosphere were rare. The arrival of Yifan caused the military evolvers who were chatting freely to look sideways and quickly calm down.
Huang Haibin said, “Little brother Yifan, can I have a word?”
Yi Fan shook his head. Yi Fan didn’t mean to say anything. He stood up and said, “Comrades, this is a celebration banquet. I declare that at this banquet, there are no superiors or subordinates, no military ranks, only comrades in arms.”
“My comrades, today’s banquet is to celebrate our base and the fall of the large grain depots in South Lake Province.”
“In this battle, all of our warriors and comrades of the Evolution Realm have contributed. However, this contribution must be attributed to Colonel Zhu Yifan. Everyone, tell me, am I right?”
“Right!!”
All the evolutionaries present clanged their wine bowls in agreement.
“Alright, since everyone agrees with what I said, then let’s all propose a toast to Senior Colonel Zhu Yifan.” Huang Haibin turned around and said to Yi Fan.
“Hula!!” Everyone stood up and raised the wine bowl in their hands, facing Yifan from afar.
Yifan stood up helplessly. Under the gaze of countless people, he raised his wine bowl and said in a low voice, “Fuck!”
Raising his head, a bowl of beer fell from his stomach, and Yifan’s “dry” sound completely opened the prelude to the banquet.
Next, from this moment onwards, Yifan’s wine bowl had never been empty. Huang Haibin took the lead, followed by the new leaders of the military. They pushed their glasses and changed their glasses, and toasted repeatedly.
Qiangzi, Wang Yang, Zhou Xin, and Zhang Liang also joined in the fun, and Yiyi toasted Yifan.
Next to them were Li Hu, Li Hao, Li Feng, Li Li, Fang Mubai, and the members of the Five Birds Guild.
Yifan could not refuse these people’s toasts. This time, it was not good. Countless military evolvers swarmed over and drank a cup of wine with Yifan.
In their eyes, being able to drink a cup with Yi Fan was like an unparalleled honor to them.
Everyone drank beer. This beer was swept back by Huang Haibin and the others when they searched the nearby supermarkets. However, there was still a lot of stock left. Soon, everyone would leave this base. If they didn’t take it out and drink it, the military wouldn’t have to waste any effort to ship these things at that time.
At this moment, Yi Fan opened his mouth and drank. Everyone present was an evolver, and beer was nothing more than a bloated belly for everyone present.
There was no such thing as drunkenness. What he wanted was an atmosphere. Of course, Yifan didn’t want to ruin everyone’s mood. He didn’t refuse to come. However, he was the one who ran the most frequently in this bathroom.
That night’s banquet continued into the middle of the night. At this moment, there were only a few people left in the banquet hall.
Yifan, Ji Ruoxue, Huang Haibin, Zhou Weiguo, Wang Zhiyuan, several bigwigs, and their personal guards.
Yi Fan thought for a moment and said, “Everyone, start preparing for the evacuation. In three days, my team will leave.”
“As for the Dawn Training Brigade, I will let Ruoxue and the others teach them as well. As for how much they can learn and what will happen in the future, it will depend on their talent.”
Huang Haibin’s expression turned cold as he said unwillingly, “Brother Yifan, is the Corpse King that terrifying? With you here, is it possible for the two of us to defend the base together?”
Yi Fan shook his head resolutely and said, “Impossible. This place is not easy to defend and difficult to attack. To defend this place, you have to defend all sides. It’s too difficult.”
“Although we have food and some powerful weapons, we can’t stop the ravages of the endless sea of corpses.”
“After all, it is conservatively estimated that the zombies in City C are no less than 800W. Today, the battle we are experiencing is only at the level of a million. Imagine that millions, or even millions, of zombies are besieging this base. Can we defend it?”
“So, don’t be so foolish. Hurry up and organize a retreat. Their teams are so big. If they’re too late, they can’t even leave.”
Yi Fan’s resolute tone caused Huang Haibin to sigh sadly. He originally did not want to give up this place. After all, the facilities here were already complete, but Zhu Yifan’s analysis was very clear. He could not defend this place, and there was no alternative but to perish.
Perhaps from the point of view of modern warfare, the location of this place was not bad, but who would have thought that they would have to face countless zombies that looked like living dead?
Zhou Weiguo and Wang Zhiyuan did not say anything. They only silently listened to Yi Fan and expressed their stance. They would definitely leave within three days.
Finally, there was the issue of grain distribution. Zhou Weiguo had the fewest participants in this battle, and was also the weakest of the three. Huang Haibin had distributed 5,000 tons of grain to him. This was already understandable.
On Wang Zhiyuan’s side, there were quite a few people involved in this battle, and many of his subordinates died in battle. In the end, they received 10,000 tons of grain.
In Yi Fan’s words, 12,000 tons of grain could be considered equal to the surplus grain of Huang Haibin.
As for meat, after Huang Haibin finished processing it, he would directly distribute it according to the car. According to his efficiency, it would probably be handled very quickly.
Everything is settled. Zhou Weiguo and Wang Zhiyuan have already retreated. Yi Fan was originally planning to retreat with Ji Ruoxue, but Huang Haibin pulled Yi Fan back again and asked, “Brother Yi Fan, our Huang Clan, its personnel and influence are all in South Lake Province. Now that we have basically gathered in City C, it’s not realistic to think about going to another place to develop.”
“Why don’t you help me take a look? Is there any other geomantic treasure ground in City C that can settle down?”
Huang Haibin was fully prepared. He immediately took out a map from his pocket and was about to open it.
However, Yifan waved his hand and said, “There is a mountain in the south of C City. Take down that famous mountain and take root there. Forging that mountain can be considered a safe place.”
Huang Haibin naturally understood the geography of C City. He was very clear about the famous mountains in the south. His eyes lit up and he respectfully said, “Thank you for your guidance.”
Obviously, he had already understood. Thinking about the awkward situation at the base, his heart was clear. He also understood why Yifan had to go to the surrounding mountains to set up the base.
The more he thought about joints, the more he marveled at Yifan’s vision. With such vision and outstanding talent, it was no wonder he could go from a student organization to an old fellow like himself, not daring to look straight at him.
It was true that no one could succeed as they pleased. To achieve a certain level of accomplishment in a certain field, one must have talent, talent, and the effort that followed.
Yifan didn’t have time to pay attention to Huang Haibin’s emotions. He directly took Ji Ruoxue to the camp.
Zhou Weiguo’s office.
The Golden Ring Snake stood at its desk. Zhou Weiguo said, “Get ready, Golden Ring Snake. We will leave tomorrow and meet up with the Patriarch there.”
“Ming’er’s injuries are much better. Did you learn anything useful from Zhu Yifan’s Brigade of Dawn?”
The Golden Ring Snake said seriously, “Team Zhou, this captain under Zhu Yifan, the things they taught him about Qi, Blood, and Meridians are indeed very powerful.”
“However, we don’t have any foundation. Most of us are in contact for the first time. The progress is extremely slow. Even so, the results are still astonishing.”
“Let’s put it this way. Now that we have members of the Dawn Brigade, they are at least 30% better than those who did not participate. You have to know how long it has been. It’s only been over a week.”
Zhou Weiguo laughed loudly, “Haha, good. It seems that Ming’er’s suffering is not in vain. It has to be said that Zhu Yifan is also considered an apocalyptic genius.”
A strange expression flashed in Krait’s eyes. He said, “There’s no need to say anything more about Zhu Yifan. Let’s meet up with the Patriarch as soon as possible and discuss it again.”
“I heard that the Patriarch has already dug up a ruin in NY County. He will even leave for the second ruin tomorrow.”
However, I would like to remind the team next week that it is best to understand the trump card in the hands of the Patriarch before deciding whether or not to tell him about the death of the Zhou Peng brothers.
Zhou Weiguo said with a serious expression, “Well, as you said, we’ve already suffered two hidden losses in Zhu Yifan’s hands. Therefore, before we figure out the situation, we must not rashly let the Patriarch go against him. We don’t have any trump cards or absolute confidence. We must never say it out loud.”
“Now that the news is closed, there’s no problem hiding it for a while. You’re right about this. Go down and arrange the retreat.”
“Yes!” The Golden Ring Snake nodded and walked out of Zhou Weiguo’s office.
However, what Zhou Weiguo would not know was that the Golden Ring Snake was no longer the loyal leader of the Zhou Clan’s Evolution Realm. Instead, it was a dark child in Yi Fan’s hand, a dark child that had penetrated into the Zhou Clan’s interior.
This Dark Child would soon lead Yifan to the Zhou Clan’s headquarters, and this Dark Child would soon plunge the Zhou Clan into an abyss of destruction.
This Dark Child was like Zhou Ming, who was planted beside Yifan in Cao Xuefeng’s previous life. It would become a deadly sharp blade that could harvest countless lives of the Zhou Clan.
