Chapter 20 - Kingdom of Living I - Part 20

***

Later that day, in a shack in Dicang Village, four commanders have all gathered to discuss what they are going to do now. After they heard the confessions from the two new survivors, Shin and Yan, about the Xining, they all have come to a decision to send a squad of twenty people, all armed with weapons, a few trucks to come and see if they can get the people from there in hope to make them join the Dicang village outpost. The commanders have all agreed to send the full squad of Shi Huang and Turbo squads, and a part from the El Tigro squad, having a total of twenty fighters and letting the rest of fifteen remain on a standby.

"The mission will start tomorrow morning!" says Shi Huang commander to his people.

The commander of Shi Huang has come to the house where the five people are sleeping, sharing meals and enjoying their free time when they have the chance. The commander and his people are in the kitchen, all sitting on chairs, looking at each other, the table being moved aside since it will stand in their way. The commander proceeded to tell his squad his plan.

"Listen up. Your mission from tomorrow will have an objective to capture the survivors. As some of you know, the two people that have been "rescued" have told us about a potential group that lives in Xining. This said group is believed to be dangerous as they told us."

"Hopefully it's not like the ones we've encountered so far." says Li Kay.

"What do you mean?" asks the commander looking at Kay.

"Cannibals, sir." says Li Kay without hesitation.

"I know. This has become a problem in today's world. Let's hope they are not like this and are actually people who are feeling frightened by all of this disaster… About the mission. Capture as many people alive as possible. Innocent people, that won't be thinking of killing any of us, you understand? Also, if you found any worthy supplies that would help us. Take it."

"So," says Ri Ku raising his hand. "We'll do it peacefully first."

"And if they obey," says Yan. "we'll open fire?"

"Correct, you two." says the commander to the squad members.

"And you'll come with us?" asks Ahmed.

"I'm afraid I cannot." says the commander. "I'll stay here, and watch the outpost. Tomorrow is also scheduled for a meeting with Number Twenty."

"Number Twenty?" asks Li Kay. "Y-You mean… The President of China?"

"Yes." responds the commander, rising from his seat and heading for the exit door, but he turns around and says. "Have a good night. And good luck tomorrow."

The commander leaves the room, and the squad members are going to their beds to get their sweet seven hours of sleep that will give them enough energy for tomorrow's mission.

The commander walks away from the house of his squad members, walks for a bit, then he sees a fighter walking by his side, carrying a crate with weapons.

"For tomorrow?" asks the Shi Huang Commander.

"Yes." says the fighter toward the commander, holding a small crate with a lot of handguns and ammunition for this type of gun. "For Xining."

"What squad are you from?"

"Turbo squad, sir."

"I see." says the commander looking at the crate for a bit, then he tells him. "Carry on."

The fighter walks with the crate of weapons toward the nearby truck that will be used for tomorrow's mission. The commander however, walks down the road to his house to get a good night's sleep, not like the other two squad commanders who are staying up all night to guard the gates of Dicang village.
