Seongdong Gapseo
“Then, please check the equipment.”
Having received the equipment back from the soldiers in front of me, I can now walk around this Grand Park with pride.
After Yongmasan collapsed, I had to think about the forces as well.
Among the forces I’ve met so far, the Grand Park has the largest number of people.
There’s no benefit in antagonizing them rashly, and since it’s the middle ground, I should avoid the danger of backstabbing.
Until now, I had judged trust, but now it’s different.
“Does that mean I have to gain their trust, which is the opposite of before, for them to feel at ease?”
So, what I need to do is use the surrounding situation to gain trust from Konkuk or here.
The easiest is to have the two forces reconcile, build friendship, and freely come and go to this place.
But this first option seems difficult in terms of atmosphere.
Why? Because the Grand Park side has also raised an emergency.
“All right, all the men come out!”
They were increasing the guard personnel and pushing people deeper inside.
In short, it’s the atmosphere right before a fight. So, the first plan must be scrapped.
Then, the second plan. Actually, this was my main focus.
The second plan is to completely destroy one of the forces. If you help, the helped side will feel affection for this side. In that sense, it’s obviously better to help the Grand Park side.
Konkuk? Just looking at what they do, they seem aggressive. If I go with them as center, it seems hard to go smoothly as I want.
Moreover, after crushing the opponent with battle, even more so.
So, first, I need to focus on weakening the Konkuk side.
What I proposed is simple. It’s to continuously leave bullets by using a consumption battle.
Without any loss to our side.
Is that possible? Normally impossible, but there is something possible only in this world.
Using ‘that’, it will be easy.
The problem is this side’s will. Whether Lee Junhee agrees to my plan or not.
[Let’s draw zombies to attack Konkuk.]
This is the core of the plan.
Meanwhile, I saw a drone flying.
“For now, it’s scouting. No big deal.”
I need to find bait on my own. The districts adjacent to Gwangjin-gu are Dongdaemun-gu and Seongdong-gu.
Seongdong-gu is practically right next to Gwangjin-gu and closer to Ttukseom.
So, go in the direction of Dongdaemun-gu and check the dummies to be sacrificed.
Of course, I won’t just go.
Because the information I’ll receive in return as payment will be helpful at times like this.
“What about the Ttukseom side?”
I requested an interview with Lee Junhee to check the force range.
“It is estimated that most of them moved to Konkuk after staying in Ttukseom. The Seongdong-gu side? They don’t have that wide. If zombies are seen near Ttukseom, they go to deal with them.”
“You use that plan, but Seongdong-gu isn’t the direct one, right? How about, has the conclusion been reached?”
“It’s too dangerous a plan, so for now, it’s on hold.”
“Then, there’s no choice. Tell me about the situation in other districts.”
The situation in other districts was nothing special. The army handled the front and just left it.
No special information like a serial killer, just didn’t touch it because of wasting troops.
“Still hesitating? Then I have to lure you again.”
Even this alone can make my plan work sufficiently.
“Anyway, I got it. I also want to move as fast as possible. Ah, and share the drone scouting information with me.”
“Since there was a promise, of course I’ll do it. However, since we don’t know when the enemy will come, be careful.”
“Of course. Honestly, I’m not worried about myself. It’s just that I don’t know if those guys will come in for a surprise attack.”
Now, circling the outer part of Gwangjin-gu to check Dongdaemun-gu and Seongdong-gu.
Unless beyond the bridge, the districts attached topographically are perfect for luring zombies.
I left the bicycle and climbed to the rooftop of a nearby empty building, taking out the telescope.
“There it is.”
The entrances of each district were cleaned, but beyond that, zombies were still loitering.
I’ll lure them this way. As many as possible.
“It might be a bit hard… but for dummies, there’s no better substitute than you.”
In the Battle of Red Cliff, Zhuge Liang used dummies to obtain arrows from Cao Wei.
But in modern times, picking up bullets to reuse is impossible.
Just consuming is the strategy that fits modern times.
“I don’t know if it will work properly.”
I’m not a genius strategist or anything, just a man full of desires.
Instead, I become a villain to fulfill those desires.
Normal people don’t do what I do. That’s how I can get women.
Now, I have to repeat the act of drawing these guys closer to Gwangjin-gu with the electric bicycle.
“Hah, I really don’t want to risk my life…”
But compared to human malice that can’t be judged or bullets, simple zombies are easier to deal with.
“Kyaak!”
“Come this way! This way! They’re playing in Gwangjin-gu!”
And like the Pied Piper, I started pulling them as much as possible.

The Konkuk side was reassigning their troops. After finalizing the formation, suspicious individuals were placed at the front, that is, the Grand Park side, in advance.
A kind of bullet catchers.
“Fuck, this isn’t the colonial era…”
“Hey, quiet. A patrol might come around.”
On the half-broken rooftop, the guards were watching the Grand Park side.
“Why is it so hot. Isn’t it still mid-May?”
“We entered at the end of May. Even so, it’s already this hot?”
The sun was shining brightly high in the sky.
There are days with rain or such, but mostly clear skies. Even sultry.
“Now the weather is getting hotter, right?”
“Worst. But in summer, there are no air conditioners now.”
“Yeah. No. Solar installed houses can cover some, right?”
They were chatting while fearing the horrific heat of the coming summer.
But at this time, a fast electric bicycle came running to their side.
Loaded with food.
“Who is it?”
“Hey! Stop that! Contact the people below!”
They hurriedly signaled to the personnel waiting below.
Soon, they could contact the man moving the bicycle.
“Who are you?”
“Gun, you’re not using that, right?”
But instead of answering, the man showed intent.
“Don’t answer question with question!”
They were threatening with a gun without bullets, but the man’s gaze was checking if the magazine was inserted.
“Calm down. I’m not the enemy.”
“G, Grand Park side?”
“Third party.”
The man shrugged. They watched the suddenly appeared man with caution.
“Are you from Konkuk? Then you know the other situation well.”
“Step back!”
It was natural they showed caution. Originally, if they had bullets, they would have responded much more aggressively.
But they couldn’t have guns. Since it’s occupied, no fool would hand over dangerous weapons.
The man, Jin Dohyuk, knew that and came knowing it. He is cautious.
While maximizing the work of luring zombies to the Konkuk direction, he used drone information.
In short, they knew these were ‘originally’ Konkuk people and contacted.
“I need information, won’t you exchange for food?”
“…Don’t joke. What…”
And in front of their eyes, Jin Dohyuk took out the cola from the cool bag he was carrying.
At the same time, their eyes widened.
“C, Cola?”
“Really?”
“Hello. I’m in a situation where I have to go to Seocho-gu, so I don’t want to get backstabbed. How about? Eat this and tell me what you know?”
At the same time, the man started opening and drinking the can cola.
The distinctive can opening sound was stealing their hearing.
The carbonation sound was luring reason like a siren.
“What would you do if it’s the Grand Park side?”
They endured with one line of reason. Jin Dohyuk nodded as if he understood.
“What if it’s Grand Park?”
“Y, as expected?”
“Here, take.”
The man’s reaction of trying to retreat in surprise, he threw the can cola.
“Huh?”
“Just a gift. Free. By the way, I came from above? If you provide information, I won’t tell you something huge. Bad relationship with Grand Park?”
“No way? Do you know when they will come?”
“If I know?”
The man smiled wickedly.

Kim Myeongjin, Oh Jungwi, Shin Seongho. The core of the Ttukseom unit and the action faction were busy preparing for battle with the Grand Park side.
Shin Seongho was stroking his long hair and pointing at the map.
“The Konkuk guys are bullet catchers. Definitely.”
They planned to advance the units that surrendered to them as bullet catchers.
“Oh Jungwi also agrees, right?”
“…”
“Don’t hesitate! We’ve already killed each other. The Grand Park only wants to take their own benefit. We won’t come even if we communicate mildly. We’ll handle it properly.”
Oh Jungwi nodded with difficulty. The water was already spilled.
Even the Grand Park refused to change and held the position.
“Who suffers? The Grand Park has no choice but to fight.”
“By using up all the bullets, we win. We have machine guns, so in a consumption battle, we definitely win.”
As Shin Seongho said, by personnel, the most superior force.
Lacking personnel, supplement from Konkuk.
“Give guns only to trustworthy guys, the rest are definitely bullet catchers.”
“Can’t give guns right after occupation, anyway.”
Here, their weakness is exposed. Firepower is superior, but fewer numbers, and even if occupied, there are rebellious ones, so weapon sharing is impossible.
Oh Jungwi looked outside. There, other soldiers were dragging women.
“Hungry for women.”
“Honestly, since they enjoyed themselves, we should enjoy too.”
Shin Seongho answered as if it was nothing. What they did after defeating the resisting occupiers was to hunt women.
So, now it was quite messed up.
Rape was happening frequently, and reason was slightly lost.
“From now on, you have to restrain. If this continues, it will collapse from inside.”
“I know. Stop it today only. Myeongjin.”
Big Kim Myeongjin nodded.
“Keep discipline. In war, that’s important.”
“Then, there are still those who resisted and are captured? Let’s move them slowly. Where is the strategic point?”
This was during their strategy meeting.
Suddenly, the radio blared.
“This is the 5th exit of Gwangjin-gu entrance! Zombies have appeared! Zombies!”
“What?”
They rushed to the Konkuk rooftop.
There, over a dozen zombies were rushing through numerous vehicles at the Gwangjin entrance.
“What! What are the guards doing? Zombies are coming this far?”
While the surprised ones were bewildered, another surprising story came.
“The guards can’t contact? What kind of talk is that?”
In their confusion, the zombies started tracking the people near the subway station.
“Betrayal? No! The guards in the middle should have been protected by Jongwoo?”
Can’t understand, but what they should do is clear.
“Prepare all the riflemen! Prepare the barricade soldiers to block the zombies in front!”
Must consume bullets. In the painful choice, gunfire erupted.
