Natural Disaster Strikes: I Stockpiled Billions and Carved My Way Through the Apocalypse

"You all need to find somewhere to hide and don't get involved," Mu Jiuyue said coldly. "This is not something you can interfere with."

"Yes."

"Wait." Mu Jiuyue called out to the child, turned around and came over from her car with two sacks in her hand, tossing them to him: "This is your reward."

"Thank you, big brother!" The child exclaimed when he saw that the sack was full of sweet potatoes and potatoes.

Overjoyed, he turned around and called the others, packed up their belongings, took Mu Jiuyue with him, paid her the reward, and ran off without stopping.

As for whether they will come back in the future, Mu Jiuyue said she wasn't very concerned.

Mu Jiuyue quickly informed Wei Lie of the news.

Wei Lie turned around and notified Lin Zhen and Director Lin.

The three of them met soon after.

"What is the Central Shelter trying to do?" Lin Zhen's fingers trembled with anger. "Is this a case of 'if you can't have it, destroy it'? If those refugees get close to K City, they'll either kill us or annoy us to death!"

Wei Lie said seriously, "The Central Shelter's intentions are as clear as day. Our K City is too powerful, which isn't good for the Central Shelter. It's understandable that they want to eliminate us before we've fully developed our power. After all, we rejected their offers of amnesty several times, embarrassing them. However, I'm more curious about how the Central Shelter knew about our K City situation. No one would believe there wasn't a traitor among them, would they?"

Lin Zhen and Wei Lie both looked at Director Lin.

Director Lin's face was so dark it seemed to drip water. He said, "I understand what you mean. It seems I was too soft-hearted and let them think I, Lin, am a coward. Who else but those two people could betray information about the K City shelter?"

“Director Lin, as an outsider, I shouldn’t be interrupting. However, hesitation only leads to more trouble.” Wei Lie said meaningfully, “Since you have already taken actual control of the K City shelter, why not solidify this title? Anyway, the outside world is already in chaos. Other shelters are all acting independently. Nowadays, there are no real countries in the world.”

"The K City shelter is your life's work. You don't want your hard work to go to waste and become someone else's achievement, do you?" Wei Lie said, "Our territory is small; we only need to guard a few hilltops. But the shelter has millions of people here!"

Lin Zhen also said, "President Wei is right. Director Lin, it's time for you to make a decision!"

"Rest assured, both of you." Director Lin finally made up his mind: "Success or failure can both be due to a hero. It is indeed time to make a decision! As long as Base Chief Lin and General Manager Wei do not interfere with the K City shelter, I will definitely give you both an explanation."

Lin Zhen and Wei Lie exchanged a glance and replied with a smile, "Of course."

As soon as Director Lin returned to the shelter, he heard from his subordinates that the top two leaders, along with their families, were preparing to leave the shelter.

He said he was going to visit a relative at a shelter in the central region.

Director Lin sneered, "Damn his relative! He betrayed me and thinks he can get away unscathed? What makes you think he can!"

Director Lin immediately issued the order: "Send men to intercept them on the road! I want to leave no one alive! They should die on K City's territory!"

"Huh? This..." The subordinates exchanged bewildered glances: "Isn't this too radical? After all, they were once..."

"I was too lenient with my methods, which gave them the opportunity to betray me. One mistake is enough. To suffer a second one would be foolish!" Director Lin declared definitively, "I've already spoken to Lin Zhen and Wei Lie; they won't interfere. Focus all your efforts on eliminating the traitors!"

"Yes!"

Although the traitor was found in the K City shelter, the outcome of the siege by refugees would not change.

Lin Zhen, Wei Lie, and the captain of the law enforcement team from the shelter gathered together to discuss the distribution of the defense line and divide the territory.

All three parties will contribute their efforts to sniping and then coordinate to support the other two.

Lin Zhen was very decisive and directly brought out the heavy weapons that had been hidden away.

Lin Zhen touched the cannon barrel and said, "I never imagined that these weapons would be used on our own people. It's really a shame for my old buddy!"

Wei Lie said, "Now there is only the distinction between normal humans and abnormal humans. Those who are not of our kind will surely have different hearts."

“That’s right.” Lin Zhen patted the weapons and ammunition box and said, “Everyone should share these weapons. We must not let those plague-carrying refugees get close to us!”

Wei Lie said, "Base Commander Lin provided the weapons, but I don't have enough manpower and can't send too many people. However, I, Wei Lie, will cover all the expenses for this operation!"

Director Lin's enforcement team captain also spoke up, "How can we let you just contribute money and effort? Our shelter isn't a pushover either. We'll take care of all the construction and cleanup!"

"Okay, it's a deal!"

Lin Zhen was the most knowledgeable person when it came to warfare.

He immediately set up the sand table, placing the Dawn Base, the Shelter, and the Hilltop Shelter in the center, encompassing the surrounding terrain. Using his baton, he explained, "That group of refugees is approaching in an encircling formation. Judging from their pace and direction, some of them are skilled in command. Therefore, they will flank them from these three directions—"

"The eastern route will be their feint attack. They will send a small group of refugees to attack. It will be a protracted battle here. They won't send all their troops up at once, but they will repeatedly engage in skirmishes to draw away and deplete our fighting strength and attention."

"The central route is clearly a direct assault on the shelter. Since the shelter is surrounded by only one mountain with no other cover, it's the best position for an attack. Therefore, they will definitely deploy a large number of people there."

"But what we need to pay the most attention to is the western route. This is where General Wei's mountain shelter is located. Although it's all mountains there, the slopes aren't very high or steep. When our attention is diverted to the eastern and central routes, we often overlook the western route. We assume they won't go through the trouble of climbing mountains to attack the least populated mountain shelter."

"Our Dawn Base is actually the safest. It's surrounded by mountains on three sides, and they're all high mountains. I've already deployed defenses on those mountains, and the people below know the routes by heart. After all, refugees are just refugees, not professional combatants. Unless they launch a suicide attack, they won't attack my base."

"In summary, our key defensive positions are here, here, and here." Lin Zhen finished explaining and turned to the other two: "What do you think?"

“I think Chief Lin’s analysis is correct.” Wei Lie nodded: “A professional is a professional. I’m just a businessman and don’t understand tactics, but I choose to trust Chief Lin.”

The shelter's captain nodded and said, "I'm a rough man. I only follow orders. I'll do whatever I'm told to do!"

Lin Zhen then said, "President Wei, I need to borrow someone from you."

"Who?"

“Mu Jiu,” Lin Zhen replied, “His combat skills are comparable to our special forces.”
