Anime Crossover: Many Children, Many Blessings; Yukino, the Wife from the Apocalypse

Page 326

After talking with him, he felt more and more that Chang Wei was a capable and virtuous young man, and it would be a great blessing if he could marry his daughter.

Chang Wei suddenly remembered something and asked my comrade leader:

"My comrade commander, when I came in, I noticed that everyone looked rather unwell and seemed quite tired. What could be the reason for this?"

Upon hearing this, our regimental commander sighed slightly and began to recount some recent events that had occurred in the military camp.

When the words of our guild leader echoed in the hall, the once noisy space instantly fell into dead silence.

All eyes were on him, as if drawn by an invisible force.

"Alas, this is indeed the predicament we face." Our commander sighed deeply, his usually resolute face now showing a hint of helplessness and tenderness.

He turned to Chang Wei, his voice low and firm, "From the very beginning of our military camp, we never considered the issue of food; everything depended on government supplies. Now, we only have a month's worth of food left. In this apocalyptic world, supplies have been cut off, and we are fighting hunger every day. Our soldiers have to scramble around to find food in order to survive and fight."

. "

"We possess powerful weapons, but food has become our greatest weakness. Now, I have to admit that if we don't receive new supplies, we may only be able to hold out for another month, and then..."

My guild leader's voice choked with emotion. He paused for a moment before continuing, "Then, we may perish because of hunger."

These words struck everyone's hearts like a heavy hammer, and the hall fell silent. Those once brave and fearless warriors now lowered their heads, their faces filled with shame and helplessness.

They were once kings on the battlefield, but now they have to struggle for food. The irony and sorrow in this situation are beyond words.

With tears in his eyes and a trembling voice, my regimental commander said, "I have failed these children and these comrades who trusted me. As their commander, I have failed to lead them to a better future."

However, no sooner had he finished speaking than a chorus of words of comfort rose in the hall. The soldiers expressed their gratitude, saying that it was their commander who had enabled them to quickly regain their fighting strength and recapture the camp at the very beginning of the apocalypse.

They all knew that our regimental commander always reserved the best supplies for the soldiers, while he himself lived the most arduous life.

They all saw and remembered his efforts and hard work.

Chang Wei was also moved by the words and actions of my comrade commander and was filled with respect.

He knew that in such a predicament, the regimental commander who could stick to his post and think of the soldiers was the real hero.

Inside the imposing military tent of my comrade-in-arms, Chang Wei's heroic performance had already attracted everyone's attention.

My comrade commander looked at Chang Wei, his eyes gleaming with admiration, and said in a deep voice:

"Chang Wei, your bravery and strength are exactly what our army needs."

I sincerely invite you to join us and become a member of our military. If you agree, you will be immediately awarded the rank of colonel, and will have the opportunity to command our elite Evolved force, the most powerful and disciplined unit in the entire military.

These words caused an uproar in the military tent. Everyone knew that while the rank of colonel was an honor, the power to command the evolved human forces was even more precious.

This position means that Chang Wei will become a core figure in the military, wielding significant power.

The soldiers around him cast envious glances, as if they could already foresee Chang Wei's future glory.

However, Chang Wei seemed somewhat hesitant in the face of such temptation.

He frowned slightly, clearly understanding the responsibilities and constraints that came with this power.

He knew that accepting the invitation would immediately grant him immense power and status, but it would also mean losing his freedom and becoming part of the army, a power he did not truly desire.

Besides, he's a citizen of China; he has no interest in joining the Sakura army and serving the Sakura nation.

Plan 410: Eradicate the zombies in Tokyo!

Just as Chang Wei was deep in thought, a familiar yet unfamiliar voice broke the silence: "Haha, my cousin, you didn't even tell me you had a distinguished guest visiting, so I could also get to know this hero."

As the voice faded, a group of figures entered the military tent.

The sudden sound instantly made the atmosphere inside the military tent tense.

Chang Wei noticed that Feng Bozhengxiong's expression also turned ugly, clearly indicating that he was not fond of the owner of the voice.

He couldn't help but wonder if there were factional struggles within the military.

However, the leader of the group did not seem surprised. He smiled and greeted the newcomer, calling him "Brother Hyuga".

This scene made Chang Wei even more puzzled; the complex relationships within the military seemed to be far more complicated than he had imagined.

But in any case, he had to make a choice: whether to accept the invitation and become a member of the military.

The doors to the hall were broken by a series of hurried footsteps, and Chang Wei's eyes widened instantly as a group of familiar figures rushed in.

Hyuga Jun led the way, followed closely by Li Feng, who had once been in charge of a city. Yu Zhiga and Kohei, two influential figures in Tokyo, also followed closely behind, surrounding Hyuga Jun like stars around the moon.

As soon as Hyuga Jun and the others stepped into the hall, their eyes involuntarily fell on Chang Wei. The words they were about to say swirled in their throats, but they swallowed them back.

"Chang Wei, it's you?"

Hyuga Jun's voice carried a hint of disbelief and surprise.

He recalled the harrowing scene of their escape from the city, when Chang Wei appeared like a divine intervention, opening a path to survival for them.

At the time, he invited Chang Wei to accompany them, but Chang Wei chose to face the danger alone.

At this moment, a strange joy welled up in Hyuga Jun's heart, because he had just learned an astonishing piece of news—Chang Wei was the evolved human who killed the hunter!

This idea grew stronger in Hyuga Jun's mind. He stared intently at Chang Wei, as if trying to confirm the truth of the news from his eyes.

The others also recognized Chang Wei, and they too remembered that thrilling scene. Especially the few people around him, who were now level seven evolvers, still felt an inexplicable pressure in the face of Chang Wei.

Thinking of the news they had just received, a strong fighting spirit surged within them, and they wanted to compete with Chang Wei.

Hyuga Jun quickly composed himself, a warm smile returning to his face. He stepped forward and shook hands firmly with Chang Wei, saying, "Chang Wei, I really didn't expect to meet you here. We've both been busy with our own things since we parted last time, and I never thought we'd meet again here today."

Chang Wei smiled and replied, "Secretary Hyuga, yes, it was a hasty farewell last time, I didn't expect to meet again so soon. We'll talk about what happened here later."

When the commander of our troupe saw that the two were old acquaintances, he couldn't help but show a surprised expression. "Hyuga, you and this Chang Wei actually have a past relationship?"

Hyuga Jun looked back, a hint of emotion in his smile: "More than just old acquaintances, do you remember the zombie horde we encountered during our evacuation? It was this young man who stepped forward and saved us all. If it weren't for him, we would probably have become part of that zombie horde long ago."

He paused, then looked at Chang Wei somewhat awkwardly. "To my shame, I still don't know my benefactor's name and can only address him as 'young brother.' May I ask this young brother's esteemed name?"

Chang Wei smiled slightly, not minding at all. "My name is Chang Wei. If Secretary Hyuga doesn't mind, you can call me Chang Wei."

"Haha, good, Chang Wei!"

Hyuga Jun laughed heartily, then said sincerely, "I heard that you have once again slain the Hunter, eliminating a great threat to us. I must thank you properly. I wonder if Chang Wei would do me the honor of coming to my residence for a chat?"

Upon hearing this, Feng Bozhengxiong, Wotang Yingtong, and others all changed their expressions.

Feng Bozhengxiong took a step forward eagerly, about to speak, but my gang leader interrupted him first:

"The situation is turbulent, so please calm down. Brother Cao, we appreciate your kindness. But since everyone is here today, how about I host a banquet to thank Chang Wei for his kindness?"

Hyuga Jun thought for a moment, then nodded in agreement, “My cousin is absolutely right, so let’s do as you say.” He looked around and, seeing that no one had any objections, he made the decision.

Chang Wei watched this scene with a sense of helplessness in his heart.

He was well aware that these two forces, one being the military system and the other the government system, appeared harmonious on the surface, but undercurrents were surging beneath.

However, he didn't want to get too involved in these disputes and only hoped to complete his mission as soon as possible and leave this place of trouble.

In this chaotic era, the power of each individual should not be underestimated. Once one gets involved, one may find oneself mired in a quagmire from which it is difficult to extricate oneself.

Before long, the food was served, but the sight before us was astonishing.

On the table were several plates of green vegetables and tofu cubes, next to a bowl of white rice porridge and a few white steamed buns. A few plates of pickled vegetables sat forlornly to one side, and there was a pot of steaming pork stew with vermicelli, but the pork slices were so few that they were almost negligible.

Faced with such food, Chang Wei and his companions looked at each other in bewilderment, wondering to themselves: Is this the standard a division uses to entertain guests?

Seeing this, my platoon leader sighed softly, a hint of helplessness on his face:

"We are currently facing a shortage of supplies, and this is the best we can offer."

Chang Wei frowned, puzzled, and asked, "Can't we go to the grain depot to find supplies? Tokyo is such a prosperous city, how could it not have a grain depot?"

Commander Ido shook his head, turning his gaze to the Hyuga army beside him: "The location of the granary is generally known only to a few people, and I know nothing about it. The Hyuga army probably knows more."

Hyuga Jun gave a wry smile and admitted, "As the municipal party secretary, I have many things to deal with every day. Matters like grain depots are usually handled by the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission. I really didn't pay much attention to them before."

However, Hyuga Jun changed the subject and said in a deep voice, "However, although I don't know the exact location of the granary, I do know that there is a huge supply storage point in Tokyo. A large logistics company just delivered a large batch of grain, enough to feed tens of thousands of people for several years!"

Upon hearing this, Chang Wei was overjoyed, but then fell into deep thought.

Although the food was within easy reach, Tokyo was overrun with zombies, so obtaining it would be no easy task.

Hyuga Jun seemed to sense Chang Wei's concerns and continued, "Therefore, we have decided to organize an operation to attack Tokyo and reclaim this batch of grain!"

Chang Wei was astonished upon hearing this.

An attack on Tokyo?

That's a gathering place for millions of zombies! How could they possibly take it down with just five thousand men?

Moreover, there are special zombies and terrifying mutated zombies in Tokyo. Without tens of thousands of troops, it would be a complete fantasy!

His eyes widened in disbelief as he asked, "You guys aren't kidding, are you?"

"Secretary Hyuga, do you really intend to regain the lost territory of Tokyo?" Chang Wei's eyes widened like saucers; he could hardly believe what he was hearing.

Faced with Chang Wei's astonishment, the Hyuga army chose to remain silent, but it was Commander Itagaki who stepped forward, his voice firm and powerful:

"Yes, Chang Wei. At this moment, we are standing on the edge of a cliff, and life and death are just a thought away. Therefore, I implore you to join us and fight alongside our team of evolved beings with your strength and wisdom. With your addition, and in conjunction with our modern weapons, I believe that those seemingly powerful zombies will eventually be defeated before us."

"We will crush the defenses of the ordinary zombies with overwhelming force, and you will lead our elite troops to fight against the special, high-level zombies. It will be a tough battle, but I believe that as long as we work together, we will be able to reclaim our lost territory."

However, Chang Wei's face grew increasingly grim. He knew in his heart that this was not just a battle, but a perilous adventure with a slim chance of survival.

He couldn't help but curse inwardly:
