Time Travel: I am a Warlord in Doomsday America

Another morning, as soon as it got light, the school gate opened, and Moore led an armed team to clear out the zombies gathered around the school.

Qing Yishui's optical sight and silenced M4, with an expanded magazine to increase firepower and endurance.

There were continuous dull gunshots outside the school, and the scattered wandering zombies kept falling down under the heavy firepower. However, Zhang Qiang, who felt that he had achieved some success, was still sleeping in the office.

It was not until Lucy left the office building with a group of children chattering and the sound of footsteps in the corridor that Zhang Qiang woke up.

The children helped the adults clean up the bodies outside the school, while some elderly people accompanied the victimized women of Woxing to start cleaning inside the school.

Zhang Qiang doesn't keep idle people, so he asked An Zhui to manage the people with low combat effectiveness. As for whether those women can get out of the shadow left by Wo Xing, it all depends on themselves.

So far, the list of women's occupations before the disaster is not complete. They have dull eyes all day long and just mechanically receive orders from outside.

Only a small number of women who have suffered less harm can communicate normally with outsiders.

Zhang Qiang set up a separate classroom for them, and let people with psychology degrees and women who had walked out of the school guide the rest.

The effect is not obvious for the time being.

The whole school became busy, which made Zhang Qiang feel at ease. Thinking that Hershel would deliver a batch of food today, Zhang Qiang felt even more at ease.

Otherwise, he really couldn't afford to support the more than one hundred people in the school.

Jim was also repairing the school's PA system, parts of which had been accidentally damaged by police and National Guard gunfire during the disaster.

Zhang Qiang will put the new combat personnel plan on the agenda today. He plans to select a group of strong men under the age of 55 to train in shooting. They are not required to be able to fight in external battles, but it will be enough for them to defend the territory and clear the zombies.

With the remaining 5000 points on the panel, Zhang Qiang expanded the school's arsenal and distributed ten M4 rifles, twenty M9 pistols, and five Remington M870 shotguns.

Zhang Qiang also left the uniform ammunition in the school armory, which was also his office.

Including the weapons seized from Woxing, the number of weapons in the school actually far exceeds the number of people that can be equipped. Zhang Qiang took out all the relevant ammunition. As long as Zhang Qiang is not in the office, Dai Ya will take over the principal's office.

The door of the principal's office was damaged before, but the school warehouse had a spare anti-theft door, so Jim took the trouble to reinstall it.

It was not until around nine in the morning that the people working in the school gradually became quieter and went to rest after finishing their work.

Outside the school gate, a pickup truck loaded with flour and vegetables drove up, followed by a truck and an RV.

The observers on the rooftop of the teaching building immediately notified Moore, and Moore had to get up from Maya's gentle embrace and immediately notified Zhang Qiang.

After receiving the message from the walkie-talkie, Zhang Qiang directly ordered all core personnel to prepare for the meeting and let Daryl and the armed team receive and inspect Hershel's convoy.

Zhang Qiang also went to the school gate to greet him in person.

In the convoy, Hershel, who was sitting in the passenger seat of the pickup truck, sighed as he looked at the pile of corpses in the open space outside the school.

The cleaned-up zombies were simply piled up by the school staff, and the afternoon work was to transport the bodies away for cremation.

"Dad, what's wrong with you? You seemed so happy just now."

Maggie asked as she was driving.

Hershel hesitated for a moment. Perhaps he shouldn't hide his thoughts from his daughter. He said, "I was just thinking about the barn..."

Maggie understood immediately.

When she and Glenn traveled before, they had already accepted the fact that the zombies were just walking corpses.

But Hershel had never been convinced by her, and now Hershel was considering it. Perhaps soon, the "people" in the barn would rest in peace.

"Dad, it's time to let mom...they rest in peace."

Maggie said soothingly.

Hershel just looked down at his thighs, his mind still struggling with the emotions within.

The convoy quickly drove into the school. Daryl, More, Deacon, the drunkard and four new members of the armed team were guarding the door with guns.

Only Rick, Dale, Alan, Carol and their daughter Sophia got out of the RV. The others still had to work on the farm and protect the safety of the farm.

There were many people walking in the school, mostly old people and children. It was already past breakfast time, and when they saw the convoy delivering new supplies, many people stopped to watch from a distance.

An Zhui, who was in charge of logistics, had directly stated that all supplies would be centrally managed by the top management to ensure that everyone had enough food and water, but if anyone stretched out a hand that should not be stretched, the physical punishment would not be light.

Zhang Qiang has already reminded him that this is not just a small fight involving dozens of people. If the thief is not beaten to a pulp to serve as a warning to others, it will be more difficult to manage them in the future.

The quantity of materials is not enough for everyone to dispose of freely.

"Herschel."

Zhang Qiang came over and said hello.

Hershel smiled, shook hands with Zhang Qiang, and said:

"I brought forty bags of flour, two slaughtered pigs, a lot of vegetables and fruits, and a lot of other things in the truck. It should be enough for a few days."

Zhang Qiang had a happy look on his face and shook hands with Hershel a little harder. He let An Zhui and Maggie take over, and the others were free to visit the school.

"Principal, I want to go too."

Alan jumped down from the RV and took Zhang Qiang's arm. She was no longer silent and withdrawn like before, but spoke out when she had something to say.

Of course, this attitude varies from person to person.

"Okay, okay, come over. Maggie, you and An Zhui will come to the meeting later. You are also the representative of the farm."

Zhang Qiang said to Alan and Maggie respectively.

Maggie nodded expressionlessly.

Carol pulled her daughter Sophia over to hug the Dixon brothers. Her daughter had told her everything.

"Daryl, Maul, thank you."

Carol was a little excited because the Dixons were her old neighbors.

Now that all the old acquaintances are alive and well and have saved her daughter, Carol feels that her dying life has been redeemed.

"Uncle Moore, I brought you peaches."

Sophia raised the fresh peach in her hand and handed it to Moore, but she ignored Daryl next to her.

Unfortunately, Daryl, who devoted a lot of time and energy to finding Sophia in the original drama, lost his chance with Carol by accident.

(Although they didn’t get together later)

"You should come to live in school. This is a good place for children to grow up and teach them how to survive."

Daryl suddenly said to Carol.

To be honest, Rick and Old Dale next to them were a little tempted. Although the school wall was just an iron fence with a concrete base, it would at least not be a problem to keep out the zombies.

Pregnant Lori and her son Carl need to live in such a safe environment.

"Why not, I think everyone should come here if possible."

Carol glanced at Rick, who was more eager than herself. Although Rick didn't say anything, he could no longer hide his excited expression.

"I'm sorry Carol, then this matter depends on Zhang's opinion."

Moore saw what Rick and the others were thinking and immediately refused.

It’s not that he holds a grudge against what happened in the past, but that the veto power in this matter is in Zhang Qiang’s hands.

He didn't care about accepting new people. Even if other senior executives objected, as long as Zhang Qiang spoke, nothing would deviate from Zhang Qiang's will.

Rick calmed down. Dale thought that Moore's bad attitude was because of something that happened in the past. He wanted to come over and say something, but was stopped by Rick.

"Dale, there will be news on this matter."

Rick walked over and whispered to Moore seriously and sincerely:

"I'm sorry for what happened before. If I could, I would do anything to make up for it, but I have a wife and a child now. Lori is pregnant, and Hershel has always had reservations about whether we should stay or go. We really need a place to live..."

Moore's expression didn't change at first, but when he heard Rick say that Lori was pregnant, his mouth opened wide and the sarcasm on his face was obvious.

"you……"

"Shut up, Mor."

Daryl came over and poked Maul's waist with the butt of his gun. He knew what was going to happen before the old man even took off his pants. If Maul were to expose the affair between Sean and Lori, and Rick got angry and took action, he would never be able to walk out of the school alive.

The previous conversation with the acquaintance was just an episode. An Zhui came over with a group of workers, quickly handed over the work to Maggie, received the food and supplies, and went to the conference room for a meeting with all the senior executives.

The long table in the conference room was empty. Zhang Qiang and Hershel sat at the two ends, and the others sat wherever they pleased.

“I have reached a cooperation with Mr. Hershel, and I invited him here mainly to discuss the specific details.

We cannot rely solely on the work of Herschel and others to obtain food. We must develop our own plantations and farms and train our own workers.

Moreover, we also need to provide manpower to help Hershel and his family and provide personnel to be responsible for farm security and zombie cleanup.

Including opening a shooting range to provide guns and ammunition for shooting..."

Zhang Qiang began to talk.

After some discussion (omitted), Herschel agreed with Zhang Qiang's point of view on the issue of child labor.

The child labor problem in the United States is already serious. Although children still need to be cared for in the eyes of ordinary families, many children are still employed to work in factories and farms, and the wages are pitifully low.

The school's population composition is polarized, with very few young and strong people, and most of them are members of the reserve armed team in Zhang Qiang's mind. Hershel also accepts the reality and agrees to let the children help with the farm.

Anyway, he is a kind man who won't suck the blood of children, and the work on the farm won't be too dangerous.

In addition, in terms of security assistance, Hershel temporarily declined Zhang Qiang's proposal. He believed that the number of armed forces Zhang had was insufficient and they also had to go to the park to open up farmland. This matter could be brought up later.

Anyway, there are enough people on the farm, at least Rick and the others can help guard the farm.

Rick doesn't know Hershel's decision yet, but they now have a stable place to live.

“In terms of planting, we actually have a giant that is not here yet.”

Moore, who was sitting next to Zhang Qiang, said.

Zhang Qiang turned around, stared at Moore in surprise and asked, "Are you sure? An Zhuike has submitted the personnel occupation list several times."

Zhang Qiang stared at An Zhui seriously again. Principal Zhang was very dissatisfied with the inadequacy of his work.

"Moir, don't talk nonsense, I did another census yesterday!!!"

An Zhui slammed the table, stood up, glared at Moore and yelled.

Moore coughed lightly and said to comfort An Zhui:

"This matter is not your fault, it's my fault. I opened a backdoor for my own people. Of course, I didn't know about this matter beforehand. It was the drunkard who let it slip when we were drinking."

"Don't keep us in suspense, tell everyone quickly." Zhang Qiang frowned.

"Okay, okay, Deacon's wife, Sarah, may be the most educated person among all of us here. She is a botanist with a doctorate in biochemistry.

She certainly has ideas about pioneering planting. But Deacon keeps a close eye on his wife and doesn't seem to want Sarah to have much contact with other people in the school."

Moore said.

"Call the three of them and find out the situation."

Zhang Qiang gave the order, and Moore could only use the walkie-talkie to contact Deacon and the others.

Soon, Deacon, with a calm face, came to the meeting room with his wife and brothers.

Deacon was not the protagonist, Sarah was, so Zhang Qiang moved a chair and asked Sarah to sit down.

“Ms. Sarah, we already know your identity, so I would like to ask you to take the responsibility of developing the camp.

Of course, this chair in the conference room is your reward.”

Zhang Qiang said seriously.

Sarah was obviously still a little dazed. She looked at her husband standing behind the chair, not knowing what to do.

Deacon was also full of doubts. He felt that Zhang Qiang wanted Sarah to take the position and become a gang leader.

Dick's thoughts were still limited to gangs.

"I already know that you are a botanist. Your ability is very important in the puzzle of school development. We need your advice on developing vegetable plantations in the future.

We can't keep Hershel and his family running back and forth, after all, there are still dangers out there. By the way, let me introduce you three, this is the school camp's partner, the Green family..."

Zhang Qiang introduced the Hershel family to Sarah.

After discussing for a while, Sarah learned the details of the powers she would obtain and made a decision.

She slammed the table with great enthusiasm and said, "Of course I want to join! This way my husband will have to listen to me in the future. I will be his superior from now on! Hahahahaha!"

Deacon, who was standing behind Sarah, looked embarrassed. Everyone else in the conference room laughed, and the whole room was suddenly filled with a happy atmosphere...

The first meeting with the Green family ended happily. Hershel met the senior leaders of the school camp. His first impression was very good. Everyone was thinking and working hard for a better life.

The school is in a thriving and vibrant state.

When leaving the meeting room and seeing off Hershel and the others, Rick appeared again and stopped Zhang Qiang.

"Zhang, I have something to tell you."

Rick's humble appearance made Zhang Qiang couldn't help but laugh.

Where did the moral high ground go? Did he change when he saw this great place called school?

Zhang Qiang was in a good mood and decided to listen to what Rick had to say.

So Rick asked Zhang Qiang to take in his team.

Zhang Qiang then told Rick that Hershel had decided to take them in, but they had to work for Hershel's family accordingly.

"Rick, let's put it this way. You can let your wife, children, and your children come to live in the school, but they must listen to my arrangements.

You know, the children here have to help adults with work, even clean up the bodies of zombies, and learn shooting in the future.

Go back and discuss it with Lori. If they agree, let them come. There are systems in place for many things here, which will ensure people's safety to the greatest extent possible."

Zhang Qiang did not refuse Rick this time. He planned to do Rick a favor, but whether Rick and his wife could accept the conditions depended on each other.

Rick was in hesitation. He did not give Zhang Qiang an answer for the time being. After saying goodbye politely, he left with Hershel and the others.

Carol and Sophia chose to stay, and Alan also asked Hershel to stay. Hershel was now very confident about the school and agreed readily.
