C18

After the Dong An district was recaptured, the guards were naturally recruited again. The total number of people rescued in Dongan District was 98, including 41 males and 57 females. Of the 41 males, 27 were evolved, so the guards recruited another 27 and all joined Yang Dahai's 2nd squadron for training. At the same time, the Special War Department chose eight members to join them. They joined up with the second group, which was called Special Forces Squad Two. One of them was Zhao Hu (after Zhao Hu left, his vice-captain position was taken over by a squad leader named Tian Jia Qiang), and the other was a member of Squad Three called Zhang Xinlin, a CNC milling worker from the former Squadron. Zhang Xinlin was 28 years old this year, and said that it was especially because he was the successor of Wang Lei (who, three days ago, had mastered the Taiyin Lung Sutra and mastered the Shaoshang Sword Technique) who had opened up his left little finger and learned the Small Solar Meridian. These eight members were all chosen from the first squadron, while the first squadron would be selected from the second squadron to make up for their lack of support.

The Special Forces division was reorganized to form the first and second squads. Team One was made up of Chen Jing and the other four strongest members of the self-rescue battalion, and would not increase in numbers in the future. Team Two was a full team. The two main team leaders were Tang Lin and Zhao Hu. The three teams in the back had a team leader, Zhang Xinlin, Tang Lin, and Zhao Hu.

In addition, the female guard squadron had also recruited 24 new members, bringing the two squadrons together.

On 30 May, a far-reaching meeting was held in the first-floor conference room of the Headquarters building.

This conference made two decisions that would have a profound impact on future generations, namely the warrior rank and the merit rank allowance system. The Conference decides:

(1) Anyone who has mastered the two profound entrances of the Governor and the Governor may apply for the title of First Order Warrior; those who have successfully practiced the Six Veins Divine Sword or the corresponding cultivation technique (considering the appearance of new techniques) shall be granted the title of Second Order Warrior; those who have mastered the two paths of the Six Veins Divine Sword shall be granted the title of Third Order Warrior; and those who have practiced the complete set of the Six Veins Divine Sword shall be granted the title of Fourth Order Warrior. And after the fifth step, it would depend on the circumstances.

(2) Any person who obtains the title of warrior and is willing to serve in Little Qingshan's self-rescue camp and unconditionally accept redeployment from the self-rescue camp shall be entitled to the warrior allowance granted by the self-rescue camp.

(3) The rank 1 Warrior's Allowance is 200 merit points per month, and every rank thereafter, the Allowance is doubled.

(4) The lordship shall be conferred upon any person who has made an outstanding contribution to the camp.

(5) The rank of lord is divided into first class, second class, and third class. The higher the taste, the higher the grade.

(6) Lord First Pin is entitled to an allowance of 400 merit points, after which the allowance is increased by 50 per cent on the original basis for every increase in his rank.

(7) The self-rescue camp shall have an additional warrior evaluation committee and a title evaluation committee under the Meritorious Service Department.

(8) The first chairman of the warrior evaluation committee shall be Huang Xiaogang, and the judges shall be Huang Xiaogang, Chen Jing, Wang Lei, Yang Weidong, Lu Min, Zhang Xinlin, Bai He, You Cai and Yang Dahai. Each chairman shall have two votes. The term of office shall be four years, after the expiration of which the members shall be elected by ballot by all the registered samurai, and the chairman shall be elected by the members.

(9) The chairman of the first term evaluation committee shall be Chen Jing, and the chairman shall be Chen Jing, Li Jianming, Wang Jun, Wang Lei, Zhang Gui Quan, Linghu Xiaoqian, Zhang Xiang, Zhu Xiaolin, Zhou Jian and Luo Xiaohua. Each chairman shall have two votes. The term of office shall be four years, and after the expiration of that term, the members shall be elected by ballot by all the members of the self-rescue camp, and the chairman of the commission shall be elected by the members.

(10) Warriors' Reviews are held regularly and are now tentatively scheduled to be held once a month.

(11) The evaluation of titles shall be conducted at irregular intervals, and any merit which has made a significant contribution to the self-help camp may be applied for at any time, and the evaluation may be conducted after the examination and approval of the evaluation committee.

The next day, the two committees held their first warrior and knighthood reviews before the results were published in the notice board in front of the company's headquarters building.

After the two lists were published, the people were most interested in the Warrior Ranking, and secretly gave a review of all the Warriors in the self-rescue camp. Two or three days later, Little Qingshan's list of top ten strongest warriors in the self-rescue camp was published:

First expert: Huang Xiaogang; second expert: Chen Jing; third expert: Yang Weidong; fourth expert: Wang Lei; fifth expert: Zhang Xinlin; sixth expert: Lu Min; seventh expert: Tang Lin; eighth expert: Zhang Bin; ninth expert: Yang Dahai; tenth expert: Zhao Hu.

The evaluation was very public, but there was one small mistake, and that was Zhou Jian. Although Zhou Jian did not join the guards, based on strength, Zhou Jian should be at least in front of Yang Da.

After three days of adaptive training, the reassembled guards were about to set off again. Considering the smooth progress of the early war, Chen Jing and the others decided to spend more time on the project. The goals of the plan were as follows: 1) the cancer hospital that was already planned; 2) the European apartment complex in Dongan district on the west side of the Crescent Lake; and 3) the eighth secondary school in the city of Lianzhou, which was close to the technology laboratory.

This time, No. 8 Middle School was going to have a tough battle. Chen Jing had sent the strongest team: personally leading a special forces team; Special forces No. 2, No. 3 teams (the strongest team was under the leadership of the level 2 expert, Zhang Xinlin); and No. 1 squadron. At first, he wanted to add the scouting party into the mix, but after considering the fact that Lu Min's female soldiers had taken back the European apartment complex for the first time, although he did not expect much danger, he was still a little worried and got Zhang Bin to lead the scouting team to deal with it.

Yang Dahai's 2nd squadron were mostly new recruits, so it was reasonable to say that they should have trained first, but since the self-defense camp wanted to recover as quickly as possible during the empty city stage, time was of the essence. On the other hand, Chen Jing, Yang Dahai, and the others all believed that fighting on behalf of others was also one way. In addition to scouting and discovering that there were almost no zombies around the outside of the hospital, based on past experience, it was very possible that it was an empty city. To be honest, no one cared about it at the time.

Zhou Tianyu was the one who first applied for and independently produced the tactics plan for the eighth secondary school in Mianzhou.

Zhou Tianyu's tactical plan had a feeling of being able to travel unhindered, and Chen Jing and the others couldn't help but admire his talent when they saw it. Finally, they agreed to implement their plan.

Eighth National Male Middle School's campus had a large lake called Bamboo Creek Lake. On the east side of the lake, there was also a large plot of bamboo forest. However, that lake no longer belonged to Eighth National Male Middle School. Originally, there weren't many fish in Lake Bamboo Creek, but there was a very large fish breeding base upstream. After the catastrophe, there were naturally zombies that discovered those huge fish rearing pools. Unfortunately, when the zombies caught the fish, they broke the fences for the fish in the fish breeding pond. As a result, tens of thousands of grass fishes were driven into Bamboo Creek Lake by the zombies. The more than two hundred zombies that were still stuck in No. 8 High School had food. As such, Zhang Bin's scouting party had discovered more than two hundred zombies surrounding the lake. If they were to use their special squadron and a squadron of forty-eight to fight against more than two hundred zombies, victory or defeat would be decided.

Zhou Tianyu's strategy was: The Special Task Force would be the reserve team, while the 1st Squadron would be the main offense. All the shield-bearers of the first squadron spread out at an angle of 45 degrees on both flanks. They hid behind their shields and formed two shield-walls with a two meter wide gap at the bottom. Two scythes flanked their flanks, with two sabers at the back. During the battle, he had killed a few zombies. After feeling slightly tired, he had then retreated to rest. Then, he would have two players standing on top of him, repeating the same process over and over again. At the same time, they would retreat while fighting, so that the zombies would be split up and the pressure on the team would lessen.

The battle began at seven in the morning. Why choose this time? Zhou Tianyu's explanation went like this: 1. If the zombies didn't wake up soon, by now, they were basically all on the shore, which would put a lot of pressure on the players. 2. If it was too late, most of the zombies would be full and would be on the shore. At 3 or 7 o'clock, the zombies would wake up, and the zombies that hadn't eaten for the whole night would be hungry, so most of them would go down to the lake to fish.

When a squadron of zombies crossed the sports field and rushed to the lakeside, the zombies were indeed all in the lake. Seeing so many delicious people appear, they naturally wanted to grab some for a big meal.

However, the zombies were all in the lake, some distance away from the shore, and their movements in the lake were way too slow. In the beginning, the number of zombies that had broken into the corner of the first squadron was only four, five, or even six.

However, after ten minutes, the situation changed. After a squadron killed sixty zombies, the main zombies finally landed on the lake. More than a hundred zombies swarmed over, and at this time, a squadron had retreated to the middle of the sports field.

If one were to simply use a squadron of 36 people to kill off over a hundred zombies, it would truly feel like a small boat pulling off huge waves. Even adding in the 12 members of the Special Task Force, there wouldn't be much of an improvement.

At this moment, it fully demonstrated the strength and effectiveness of Zhou Tianyu's tactics. Most of the more than a hundred zombies were attracted to more than sixty corpses, and the remaining dozens were placed into the slanted corner between the two Shield Walls. They were killed in turns by the twelve attacking team members at the bottom of the slanted corner, just like a spinning blade, slowly grinding away the zombies bit by bit.

Half an hour later, squadron one had killed more than a hundred zombies while suffering zero casualties. As for the last thirty zombies ashore, that was even more easy.

The expected hard battle did not occur. Under Zhou Tianyu's guidance, the 36 members of the first squadron, with zero casualties, were able to destroy the 200 zombies in less than an hour.

Afterwards, Chen Jing and Li Jianming supplemented and perfected Tianyu's tactics, replacing the two shields with wheeled shields. Thus, the Shield Wall tactic used by Little Qingshan's self-rescue battalion in the battle of the Empty Terrain Regiment took shape. As for Zhou Tianyu, Chen Jing, and Li Jianming, due to the invention of tactics, they each enjoyed a first rank title.
