The Walking Dead: Rebuild

Chapter 84 Terminal and Fort Benning

Seeing the two girls eating desserts with happy expressions on their faces, Leon also showed a knowing smile.

Without being polite to the girls, he walked to their table, reached out and picked up the largest chocolate cake, stuffed it into his mouth, swallowed it in several bites, and under the girl's snickering eyes, he said:
"Maggie, how are you collecting supplies for spring plowing?"

The girl swallowed a mouthful of cream, took out a paper towel and wiped her mouth, then said with some distress:

"Everyone in the search team worked very hard. The agricultural machinery, agricultural tools, and chemical fertilizers have almost been collected, but it may be too long. I have searched several farm warehouses, but I have not found a large number of qualified crop seeds. .”

"I discussed it with my father, and he said that if we really can't find so many seeds, we can only plant fewer crops this year and save the food harvested in the autumn as seeds for next year."

Leon nodded. He was a complete layman and didn't know anything about farming.

But now, most packaged foods are still within the shelf life. As long as you go to large supermarkets or warehouses in the city and search a few times, you don't have to worry about running out of food in the next few years.

Moreover, the plantation plan is also a long-term and core project. We should not be impatient. We must lay a good foundation and expand step by step.

The three of them ate desserts and chatted about home affairs. At the end, Maggie made a somewhat embarrassed request:
"Mr. Custer, can I ask you something?"

Leon glanced at the smiling Amy, with a kind smile on his face, and replied:
"What's the matter? Maggie, if you need help, just ask. Your family has helped me a lot, and I should repay you."

Maggie is not the kind of girl who is very squeamish and pretentious. After listening to Leon's words, she showed a bright smile and said:

"Thank you, Mr. Custer."

"That's my sister Beth!"

"She no longer wants to stay in Oak Village and wants to come here to find a job at the base. I would like to ask you to arrange a better position for her."

Leon recalled Maggie's sister, that cute little girl, Beth, who many netizens called the most beautiful girl in the show.

To be honest, his interest is not great. He likes beauties with ability, personality and good figure, not these innocent and romantic little girls.

After thinking for a moment, he said:
"No problem, let Amy arrange this matter. She is your good friend and will definitely find an easy and safe job for Beth."

Maggie glanced at Amy, who was pretending to be reserved, and suddenly showed a flattering smile.

Looking at the two girls playing and quarreling on the sofa, their attractive bodies full of youthfulness, time slipped away in the blink of an eye.
In the afternoon, Leon came to the armed machinery training class again, found the Peggy siblings, and gave them an important task.

"Scouting the terminus of a railway near the prison stronghold?"

Sherman touched his chin and asked confusedly:
"Mr. Custer, why do you suddenly want to investigate the information there!"

"The prison base over there is quite far away from us. It takes ten hours to go back and forth."

Peggy, who was standing next to him, was not used to this younger brother at all. She stood up on her tiptoes and gave him a hard slap on the head, saying:

"The boss asked us to investigate, so we will investigate. Why do you ask so many questions?"

She snorted softly at her brother who was covering his head in grievance and did not dare to answer. She turned to look at Leon expectantly and said:
"Boss, do you also want to go on this mission with us?"

Leon touched the girl's head with some embarrassment and said comfortingly:
"The company has been busy recently, but if you really find any useful information, I will go with you."

A few days later, Leon suddenly got two pieces of good news.

One of the terminals that was asked to be investigated by Peggy's siblings was found at a station more than 20 kilometers away from the prison stronghold. Not only was it relatively safe, but there was also a group of survivors living inside.

According to the intelligence surveyed by the drone, there are about 30 survivors in this group, some old and some young, and they are currently living in peace.

Leon took note of this information and planned to take people to recruit these survivors in a few days.

Another good news is that one of the survivors recruited from the prison stronghold a few days ago provided information about weapons and equipment.

Several of them were refugees from the Fort Benning military base.

According to their information, Fort Benning was originally the largest military base in Georgia, with nearly [-] professional soldiers stationed inside.

But the virus came too suddenly. In just one night, more than 90% of the soldiers were infected with the virus and fell into a state of high fever and confusion, unable to take care of themselves.

But at the beginning of the apocalypse, no one knew much about this virus. It was hard for them to imagine how their friends and relatives, who were clearly just sick, suddenly turned into hideous and terrifying zombies, pounced on them, and tore them apart. Bite their flesh and take away their lives.

Therefore, in just a few days, violent turmoil, riots, fleeing, robbery, and fighting took place all over the world.

It was at that time that all official organizations suffered unimaginable damage and almost all were paralyzed.

The same is true of the Fort Benning military base. The soldiers stationed here can hardly imagine that the comrades-in-arms and respected officers who used to be brothers-in-arms suddenly turned into murderous monsters, and began to slaughter all living people indiscriminately.

After the initial chaos, the remaining soldiers made up their minds, put aside the shackles of emotions, and killed all the zombies in the base. Only less than 1 of the more than 1000 soldiers remained.

But before they had time to rest, they received orders from their superiors to turn the entire Fort Benning military base into a huge refugee shelter to accept refugees from the entire state of Georgia.

However, things did not go as smoothly as expected. Even though these soldiers relied on powerful weapons to block the swarms of zombies, there were always many infected people who were bitten by zombies and did not report them among the refugees they took in.

These infected people, who can turn into zombies at any time, cause more deaths, injuries and chaos in the huge refugee camps all the time.However, after the military adopted thunderous tactics and killed all the injured survivors regardless of obstruction, it soon pushed the refugees to the opposite side and turned into a tense and mutually guarded confrontation.

However, as time goes by, the military, which has lost its chain of command, becomes increasingly unable to resist the endless hordes of corpses swarming from all over the country. Their orders frequently make mistakes, and various supplies are on the verge of depletion, unable to do so. Delivered to military bases across the country.

All military refugee camps are on the verge of collapse.

However, at this moment, an unknown person in charge actually issued an order to massacre all survivors in the refugee camp indiscriminately, for fear that they would turn into zombies after death and strengthen the enemy.

Of course, this is only a reason circulated among survivors, and its credibility is not high.

However, as this order spread, all military refugee camps fell into chaos, and the relationship between soldiers and refugees became a explosive keg ready to explode.

Some professional soldiers chose to carry out orders from above and began to massacre refugees. Some soldiers could not accept their inner moral condemnation and became deserters.

And the refugees who got the news couldn't be caught without a fight. They chose to resist desperately or escape quietly. Many extreme survivors even directly opened the wall to defend the corpse group, attracting zombies, trying to die together.

In this way, due to fierce internal struggles and powerful external threats, almost all camps were overwhelmed by huge groups of corpses in a very short period of time.

Not only did America lose a large number of professional soldiers, but the survivors who fled to the refugee camps also suffered unimaginable losses.

Fort Benning in Georgia, a refugee camp ruled by the military, was also destroyed for this reason.

After hearing the news, even Leon, as a time traveler, inevitably fell into a short period of sluggishness.

Even though he was well-informed, he was shocked by the suffocating operation of the military.

But no matter what the truth is, the fact that Fort Benning fell is there. As the largest military base in Georgia, and a notoriously wealthy country, the high-end equipment and ammunition supplies there must be unimaginable. Imagine that it is enough to support the consumption of a small-scale international war.

For an umbrella company that lacks ammunition and equipment, this is a surprisingly huge experience package.

However, as the leader of an organization, you cannot make decisions lightly on anything, and everything must be based on intelligence.

After all, the experience package is there, and it won't run away for no reason. Everything must be considered in the long term.

After rewarding the new employee who provided the information with a substantial bonus, Leon summoned his team captains to discuss the two pieces of information in detail.

In the end, we came to the conclusion that people could be sent over from the terminal to solve the problem quickly.

There must be countless zombies gathered at Fort Benning. With the strength of their umbrella company, there is no need to confront them head-on. They can either use a war of attrition to slowly consume the zombies there, or they can use tactics to lure the enemy. , lead away the corpses there.

But no matter what, in recent times, in addition to those construction tasks that require busy work, they have another combat task that requires a large number of manpower.

A few days later, after arranging the political affairs in the base, Lyon brought a small team of guards to the prison base in Tennessee.

Unexpectedly, after arriving here, Keweila didn't even make preparations to welcome him. She just used the radio to lightly inform him that she was busy handling matters and asked Leon to go find her in the office.

He was not surprised by the behavior of the red-haired girl. Kevela was already a very individual woman, and she had that kind of relationship with him. Should she still be angry over this little thing?

However, Leon was not in a hurry to find Kevira. After sending away the accompanying guards, he began to wander around the prison stronghold, observing the changes that had taken place here over the past month.

Counting Woodbread's sixty or seventy survivors, plus the Glenn team he dispatched, and some subsequent logistics personnel, the total number of people in this stronghold is close to 150.

Even in this apocalyptic world, it is still considered a large community. Compared with the Shandingzhai that will appear later, the Kingdom of God cannot accept any concessions.

After a inspection, Leon discovered that the red-haired girl Keveira managed the place very well.

Not only have the metal mesh walls in the prison been reinforced, but a protective pit with a depth of about 1.5 meters has also been dug around the outer wall. Such a pit can effectively prevent vehicles from colliding with the metal mesh wall and will not appear again. In the plot The Governor used tanks to knock down the prison walls.

Not only that, Kewela also made full use of the existing resources around the prison stronghold. Not only did he plant vegetables and fruits in the outer courtyard of the prison, and raised some chickens and ducks, he even saw a small pig pen and three pigs. Fat little white pig.

Lumber mills, fishing nets, hunting teams, sentry towers, patrols, you name it.

So many positions, so many projects, even those who survived Woodbury, everyone was assigned a corresponding job.

No wonder that after he entered the prison, everyone he saw was busy with their own affairs. There was no fear or confusion on their faces. It was obvious that the fulfilling work made them forget all their troubles.

Leon was secretly frightened by the changes here. As expected of a rich girl who received an elite education since childhood, even as a manager, she could easily manage her subordinates in an orderly manner.

Fortunately, this beautiful woman is not only his defeated general and his capable subordinate, but she is also his little wife and his confidante.

If it were a man, Leon should consider whether such a capable subordinate should be entrusted with important tasks.

After the inspection, Leon came alone to the room that was originally the warden's room, and saw Keveira, who was wearing a slim-fitting white women's suit, her red hair tied into a ball and tied behind her head, and a pair of small black-rimmed glasses.

This woman had a serious face and handled official duties meticulously. When she saw Leon coming in, she just glanced casually and said with a slight sarcasm:
"Haha, here comes a bastard who likes to eat secretly. That little girl Peggy tastes pretty good, right?"
