Zombie Apocalypse: Reborn With A Farming Space novel Chapter 322

Chapter 322: Options ( 2 )

But when the colonels met Xun Che’s cold gaze, they understood that the best option was to leave. With someone as ruthless and decisive as him as the base commander, they might lose their lives if they insisted on staying and challenging his authority.

At this moment, they only exchanged glances but didn’t discuss the matter with each other. Based on their understanding of one another, the moment they faced danger, they wouldn’t hesitate to use others as shields to save their own lives. Therefore, going together might not be a good choice.

After a while, Xun Che raised his eyebrows and asked, "Have you all made up your minds?"

Noticing the impatience in his voice, one of the colonels said, "My men and I will leave the base."

Xun Che nodded at his words and said, "Very well. Hanli, you will send them off personally. Make sure they don’t take anything from our base."

Standing behind him, Wen Hanli replied, "Understood."

With one of them making a decision, the rest followed one after another. "I will leave the base too."

As the colonels made their decisions, some of their subordinates were unwilling to leave. Although they had to do heavy work every day, they had warm meals three times a day and a safe place to stay.

If they left, they couldn’t be sure they would have the same comfortable life as now. What’s more, with the colonels, they would still have to protect them and find supplies for them without getting paid.

After considering the pros and cons, one of the subordinates suddenly said, "Captain Xun, I don’t want to leave. I choose to stay and work for the base."

With one person voicing his opinion, the rest of the subordinates raised their opinions too. Unlike the colonels who chose to leave, all the soldiers under them chose to stay.

Seeing this, the corner of Xun Che’s lips lifted. He had guessed this outcome. With how well they were treated by the base, it would be impossible for them to go with those old men.

While he wanted to chase away the useless politicians, he still wanted to keep the soldiers. After all, they were only following orders and hadn’t made any mistakes so far.

After being tempered for another month, he planned to recruit them as guards. It would be a waste to use trained soldiers as coolies to build the wall.

While Xun Che was pleased with this outcome, the colonels were enraged. They glared at their subordinates and shouted angrily, "Bunch of white-eyed wolves! I treated you well, and this is how you repay me?!"

The soldiers didn’t avoid their gazes, as they didn’t feel what they did was wrong. They had followed orders even when it was against their conscience before. Now that they were given a choice, why should they follow these corrupt people?

Xun Che felt a headache as they continued shouting and said, "Enough!"
