(POV Colonel - Kinato)
Curse! Curse! Curse!
One day passed and my anger because that damn brat had not been able to diminish. At first, when I saw the Takagi couple I thought things would be very easy for , I didn't know them personally but I knew that the husband was a person with a slightly militarized ntality from of so rumors I heard, so I thought that could take advantage of that.
In fact, everything was going very well and during our first eting I could check the thing of before. That is why I was hoping to recruit him as one of my subordinates, although it probably had not been imdiately, I was confident that I could do it in a short ti.
But then when our Kinato group that had gone to that camp comnted that we had to talk about so serious things, we discovered that this place was run by 4 people and not only the 3 that received us... no, surely that couple of police idiots knew it and decided to just keep it to themselves.
Well, hearing that, I thought that things could not change much and that even with this, in the not too distant future I would have the control of that camp... who would have thought that a damn impertinent brat would appear as the 4th leader from there.
Honestly, I thought that he was just so child of an important person that those 3 were protecting and they just wanted him to be here for formality. So believing that he was just soone with so support equal to that useless group next to that fat bald Shido, I could not help showing a strong attitude to pressure him and so he would not hinder
the things that I wanted to do with this camp.
Having to deal with Shido's group constantly in our camp, I discovered that they were just people without guts that with the slightest hint of confrontation, they receded. That's why when I t that boy, I wanted to intimidate him so that he only stayed out of my way in future negotiations... who would have thought that this brat had more balls than those despicable adults.
"... Dad!... Dad! I'm talking to you!"
"What do you want useless! I'm busy right now trying to think concerning so things!"
"E-emm ..."
Curse! How could I raise a son to beco the sa as people I can only see as very annoying ?! This must be his mother's fault for having spoiled him too much... he can't even compete in force with a simple brat! This fool is only good for being ashad in front of others...
"I-I want you to kill that brat! That damn child dared to mark my face! You can't let this stay like that, he has to suffer... I know! it seems he is attached to so of the girls who were in that eting. Make so soldiers bring all of them and also the brat, it will be fun to see the face he puts on when I play with those girls in front of him"
"Jerk!! If I could take care of that brat as easy as you say then I wouldn't be so upset !!"
"B-but surely if you send an ard unit you can end that camp-"
"Damn! Do you think it's so easy ?! Do you think that what their soldiers were holding were sticks and stones ?!"
"B-but if you send helicopters and tanks, then surely they won't be able to do anything even if they have so weapons..."
"Idiot! None of the Lieutenant Colonels in the base would agree to attack a group of civilians!! If I could make them follow my orders to the 100%, I wouldn't have to worry about what those two stupid leaders of this camp do!!"
"E-eh? ?? But don't you told
that you wanted to arrange a marriage between
and Lt. Col. Rika?... I wanted to dominate that proud woman"
"..."
How could I have such a stupid son? ... my goal was to have a lieutenant colonel under my direct orders with the support of family ties, but... when I tried to match both of them and talk to her about my son, I only saw a total disinterest in her face accompanied with so of disdain.
Nor can I bla her... the fool just thought that I was going to give him another toy with which he could have fun... He couldn't even help
with sothing like this...
"Get out of here, idiot! I don't want to see you now, so hop off from here if you don't want
also to mark that stupid face that you have!"
"B-but ... what about that brat? "
"Get out of here Idiot !!"
"Y-yes!"
Well, without that trouble here, now I can think more calmly. The other leaders of this camp will surely not share anything with us from the things they could get and we are indeed running out of provisions to feed the soldiers, if that keep in that way then they could give up staying in the military barracks ...
But the hell! What that brat asks is too much and now as things were between us, it seems that we can not enter into negotiations to try to reduce his demands...
...maybe I should instead try to make so deal with Miyamoto, he probably needs bullets and so military things might interest him, this way we would pay much less than what that lad ask...
The problem is that we will not be able to obtain the antidotes that the Tokonosu camp developed. If we had them, then we could try to get our own resources searching around Kinato.
The criticisms of the residents here towards us have so truth in them since we have not gone to try to get food in other nearby places, but unfortunately, it is not as simple as they believe.
This base only had a bullet production line, but for large-caliber and artillery weapons it depended on deliveries of bigger bases, so these are limited and once they run out, it will be difficult to replace them. Besides, these do not help much when it cos to collecting food since we would only get it to burn those as sa with the barns when we fight the rats.
So the best option is that we deploy the 4 thousand of infantryn... but the problem with this is that it doesn't matter if it's a soldier or a civilian, if those damn zombies manage to hurt soone, no, with just one little scratch condemns that person to a slow death full of anxiety and fear.
That is why it does not matter that the soldiers have received training to fight, it is impossible that the pressure and fear disappear if they have to face creatures that can kill them with the slightest carelessness.
But this can change if we get the antidotes... haa, it's a pity that these are in the hands of that damn brat... I wonder if I can talk to the other 3 leaders of that camp without having to deal with him?
"Colonel! Shido called a eting with the residents to inform them of the things he agreed with that Tokonosu boy and is now trying to gather the number of people he asked for!"
"Hmn? So that idiot has started?... I really don't know what that guy is thinking about making that child's camp even stronger! His camp has virtually no shortage of anything and the only thing that prevents him from developing yet faster is that he has to wait ti to gather more survivors.
But now that idiot has given him almost the total population he had in Tokonosu... he probably thinks that he will only settle for expanding his own kingdom, but I can see that this brat did not settle for that!
Well, maybe he can't do things so easily, people probably won't like to be treated like rchandise. "
"E-emmm ... Colonel, Shido has made believe that this is just a relocation and said nothing that the resources he got were for selling them... in fact, he doesn't miss the mont to highlight what happened with the rats..."
"Damn! This guy is only good at handling people and making others look bad!!"
"What do we do, Colonel? Do you want us to tell people about the information Shido hid?"
...no, that would no longer help. People's dissatisfaction with our group is not small and if we do that, then he will probably make it seem that we are the ones who are lying, after all, those politicians know very well how to misrepresent the information.
"... No, it's too late to stop that. Tell the Lieutenant Colonels that it is necessary to have a eting, we have to discuss so things"
It is better to worry about solving our problems than creating new ones, although I don't want to have to give in to that brat, nor is it that we have much choice. Miyamoto may have resources for his faction, but most likely he cannot afford to exchange it for other things...
After saying that to the soldier who ca to inform , he goes out to carry out my order, it is good to see that I still have the confidence and respect of many of the soldiers of this barracks.
Approximately half an hour later the lieutenant colonels who are in charge of their units arrive at my office. If these guys were not so foolish and only carried out the orders I give them, then many of the problems we have would be much easier to solve.
Earlier when I lost contact with the command line and heard that practically our country disappeared, at first I felt a little lost and discouraged. Since I served this for a long ti, I could not believe that all my effort was in vain.
But then I thought that I just had to rebuild it… no, make a new one that was much stronger than the previous one, but sadly, I soon realized that this also affected n who are supposed to follow all my orders. So without
having the backing of the chain of command, they now only followed the orders that fit their own thoughts and beliefs.
The only thing salvageable from this was that at least they kept up appearances and also would not be so bold to do what they wanted, so if I commanded to call all them, would appear as they do no ... although I have to wait so ti more in comparison to earlier.
"Well, Colonel. What did you want us to talk about?"
"I heard that conversations with the other camp were not as good as expected"
"You are right Omura, far from being able to et our goal by going there, our group was the only one that received nothing"
"...that is very bad to hear. Our resources continue to decrease with each passing day and soon we will have nothing to feed the soldiers."
The first to speak is the lieutenant colonel of the air vehicle unit, Yagami. Then the one who follows after him is Omura, with the sa rank but with the difference that he drives the chanized unit.
After they speak, the Lieutenant Colonel Rika who led the special forces unit that had accompanied
to Tokonosu before, begins to explain so of the things that happened in that place and then, the last to speak is Minami who shares the sa rank as the previous ones but she directed the administrative part of the base.
"Rika is right, the negotiations were not very good, no, they were quite the opposite and you can say that it was a disaster, but... the reason for this is because one of their leaders asked too much. He wants it in return for the things we needed was..."
Then I begin to inform them about the requests of that brat and so when listening to , each of them frowns with obvious disagreent for each of the things I ntion. Is certainly I did not want to give that child these things, but there was an even greater problem for can do that, if I wanted to do it so, first have to convince each that are here ...
"That's just crazy! If we do, we would lose half of our weapons!"
"... it seems that this leader is quite ambitious"
"Maybe we should just press it a little showing our weapons and feign to attack his camp to make him understand"
"Please do not joke, Lieutenant Colonel Omura. We are the army and not a kind of mafia!"
"Hehehe, don't get so excited Minami-chan, the keyword of what I said earlier is" feign
