Chapter 625 Should We Attack?
"As for the remaining women and children, if you do not wish to join the ranks of men, then stay in the school and do housekeeping, including all the things you did before. I don't need to elaborate on that, do I?"
At the same time, I continued, "Of course, I know some men definitely won't want to go out because I know you're afraid of zombies. But I can tell you for sure that if you're still so afraid of zombies, you definitely won't survive in the future. So for these people, my requirement for you is that you must go out three times. If you still don't have the courage to face zombies after three times, then you don't need to go anymore. But if anyone tries to slack off, don't blame me for being impolite, understand?"
Actually, the arrangements I made were quite rough, but they were enough for this place. After all, they only had less than a hundred people in total. If this were a central town, doing this would only lead to their own demise.
I said, “Starting today, right now, I will be selecting one man and one woman from among you. These two will become the new managers. But don’t think that being a manager will be easy. Although you don’t have to participate in specific operations, you must coordinate the actions of others. If any mistakes are made, I will send you back to the team. Do you understand?”
The people below did not answer me, but they clearly understood.
The rest is up to Zhu Zhenhao. What I've described is just the specific plan; its actual implementation will still depend on him.
After all, I don't have much authority in this school, so it's actually quite difficult to get them to listen to me.
Unlike Zhu Zhenhao, whose subordinates generally obeyed him whenever he spoke.
I'll leave the rest to him; I don't need to say anything.
What Zhu Zhenhao said to them next resolved the matter well, so I had nothing to worry about. Anyway, even if everyone here died, it wouldn't concern me.
I will leave here in a month and go back to Jiajiang. Whether Zhu Zhenhao and the others live or die is indeed none of my business.
Time passed quickly, and it was already late at night in no time.
Because everything has been rearranged today, you can now see people standing on the rooftops keeping watch, and there are also people patrolling around the school.
Overall, it's completely different from what it was like during the day.
Their surveillance and patrols gave people a sense of security.
Zhu Zhenhao looked at me and said, "Now that everything is ready, what should we do next? Are we just going to wait for those people who attacked us before to come over?"
I said, "Didn't we already send Lao Li to search for it? Let's wait and see, there's no rush. If those who attacked before really wanted to make a move here, they certainly wouldn't have only attacked once. Last time might have just been a test, but if they come again, they're probably serious."
Zhu Zhenhao said, "So next time they come, we'll just have to bite the bullet and go for it?"
I said, "I guess so, but if we find them first, things might be different."
Zhu Zhenhao didn't discuss this matter with me much, but I think he already had his own ideas. He knows exactly what to do without me having to say anything.
My task is almost complete. Now, all I need to do is wait. There's nothing more for me to do.
The two managers selected during the day have been chosen, and they are currently coordinating their work; they are very busy.
This is what a manager should be like. If managers aren't busy, what's the point of having them?
Before they knew it, it was the next morning.
Old Li and the others have also returned.
They brought good news with them when they returned.
They found the people who attacked them; the group was in a village ten kilometers to the west.
The village is somewhat isolated from the outside world, and its population is about the same as ours. Most importantly, the other side has no firearms.
I asked, "Are you sure it's them?"
Old Li said, "It's confirmed. The men I brought saw the people who came to attack that night, and they are absolutely certain that it was them."
I looked at Zhu Zhenhao.
Zhu Zhenhao's expression was slightly serious; I guessed he was considering whether or not to go over there.
If we were to go there, we would need to consider how to deal with them.
Zhu Zhenhao thought for a long time, then looked at me and asked, "Do you have any ideas?"
I paused for a moment, then said, "I don't know."
Zhu Zhenhao asked in confusion, "Don't know? What don't you know?"
I said, "I mean I have no idea."
Zhu Zhenhao asked, "How could we not have any ideas? Do you think we should go and ambush them?"
I shook my head and said, "I don't know. First of all, there's something you haven't figured out before making a decision."
They were puzzled, and Zhu Zhenhao asked, "What's wrong?"
I asked, "Did you encounter any of their people along the way when you were searching for them?"
Old Li shook his head and said, "No."
I nodded. "In that case, it's very likely that they were secretly watching you on your way there. So, if we rush over and attack them without figuring that out, we might suffer losses. Of course, this is just my guess; it's quite possible that they weren't monitoring you at all on the way. But it's never wrong to be more prepared."
Zhu Zhenhao asked, "But how can we know for sure if they're spying on us?"
I smiled and said, "It's actually quite simple. We'll know if any of them show up in those old houses to the west tonight. Now that we know about their existence, there's no need to rush. They live there, so they definitely won't leave. Let's observe them today. If they do show up, it means they already know about our actions. At that point, we'll have to change our tactics."
Zhu Zhenhao said, "Alright, send people over to keep an eye on things now. Remember, if you find any suspicious people, capture them alive. Don't kill them unless absolutely necessary."
In the morning, I stood on the rooftop of the school building, looking down at the surroundings. Everything was still the same, nothing had changed.
I wondered to myself, could Wu Shuang be living somewhere in Hangzhou right now? Maybe I could find them among these people? It seemed like anything was possible.
However, I am also afraid that Wu Shuang is already dead, and that what I knew before was just a lie. If that's the case, why did I come here?
Perhaps we should go to the Linshan Scenic Area first to see if her grave is still there.
