In response to the Minister of Agriculture's words, Liu Changhe suggested: "Or can we simply go to the area north of the Fort of Hope to reclaim farmland?" ”

He said: "This time, the place where the Nenjiang River was intercepted and diverted by zombies is between the Steel Fort and the Hope Fort. The area north of Fort Hope was not affected. There are also large fields there that are empty and uncultivated, and the zombies have basically been cleared by us, so can we move the entire agricultural area north. In this way, with the Steel Castle to resist the zombie army in the south, you don't have to be messed with zombies like this year, and the entire food production has been reduced by nearly half! What a loss! ”

But Chen Yuan shook his head and said, "I'm afraid it's not enough to simply move north." After all, the Steel Fortress is not a line of defense, if the zombies have the heart to destroy our farmland. You can leave it alone and go north directly bypassing the Steel Keep and the Hope Fortress. ”

Zhang Fatzi also said: "And if you move over there, the farmland is not easy to manage." What's more important is ......" Zhang Fatzi looked at the Minister of Agriculture and asked, "It seems that in the area to the north, you can't grow rice." ”

The Minister of Agriculture nodded, "Yes." Only a few areas in Nenjiang County near the south can grow rice, and the only areas in the north are wheat, soybeans, potatoes, corn and sugar beets. ”

Hearing this, Zhang Zeshan immediately shook his head excitedly and said, "No! No way! There are a lot of southerners in the settlement, and it is estimated that they will go crazy if they eat noodles every day, full of heads, and nests. ”

Zhang Zeshan himself is also a southerner, and he can't get used to eating pasta every day.

Chen Yuan also nodded: "Indeed." However, I would suggest that while the factories in Hatu Village and Lijiatun are now suspended, the factories here can be relocated to the north. We can build a new industrial city near the iron ore fields to the north. In addition, a light rail will be built to connect the Steel Fortress, the Hope Fortress and the Industrial City, which will solve the problem of traffic and transportation. ”

Chen Shuyuan said approvingly: "This is indeed a one-and-done solution. The location of the iron ore area is relatively remote and hidden, and the industrial city can be built with walls, so even if it encounters zombie attacks, the safety can be relatively guaranteed. lest the zombies come once and our factories will be destroyed once. ”

Zhang Fatzi also nodded: "Let's start making a plan right away." Aim to complete the relocation before the end of winter. ”

Du Ruhai continued to ask: "What about the farmland?" ”

Chen Yuan glanced at Liu Jinlong, and then said, "This...... Lao Liu and I also discussed, and we felt that we still had to build a real defense line in the south to stop the zombies from going north. ”

"Build a defensive line?" Zhang Zeshan and others all expressed doubts.

"Yes!" Chen Yuan nodded, and then he asked people to open a map near Nenjiang County, and pointed to the map with a laser pointer to introduce it to everyone: "Look, this is the Ganer River, which flows from northwest to southeast, flows out of the Daxinganling area, and joins the Nenjiang River in the south of Nenjiang County. It is an important tributary of the Nenjiang River, the water volume is not small, and the flow rate is also rapid, which can be regarded as a small moat. ”

Then, Chen Yuan's laser pointer immediately changed places, and then said, "This is the Nenqian Highway." It starts from the county seat of Nenjiang County in the west and reaches Wulian Mountain in the east. ”

"The two lines are almost connected from end to end," he emphasizes. After discussing with Lao Liu, I felt that we could actually set up a defense line about 100 kilometers long along the Ganer River and Nenqian Highway to block the zombies from going north. ”

Liu Jinlong also said at this time: "Yes. The Corpse King's control range over zombies is only 30 kilometers in radius and 60 kilometers in diameter. Faced with a 100-kilometer-long defensive line, it is still difficult for zombies to bypass it. ”

Chen Yuan continued: "And the entire line of defense starts from Bayan Township in the west, ......" Chen Yuan pointed to the location with a laser pointer and explained: "That is, the place where the Gan'er River flows out of the Great Xing'an Mountains, and reaches Wulian Mountain in the east." Intercept the entire plain between the Daxinganling Mountains and the Wulian Mountains. It cut off the possibility for zombies to bypass the defense line from the west. ”

"In addition, the Ganer River on the western front was originally a moat, so it was easier to defend. We only need to build a bunker group along the Ganer River, with watchtowers, defensive barricades, fences, and minefields, etc., to effectively defend against the attack of zombies. As for the Nenqian Highway section of the Eastern Route. We can also dig trenches and use other defenses to defend them. ”

Zhang Zeshan couldn't help but nod and said, "This is indeed possible." But it's a lot of work! If we add that, we now have 4 major projects to work on at the same time. He waved his hand and said: "Can we be busy excavating the Nenjiang River Road that was buried by zombies, filling in the tunnels, relocating and building a new industrial city and building a railway, and building a 100-kilometer-long defense line?" ”

At this time, Chen Yuan smiled and said: "We are going to carry out more than four major projects at the same time. ”

Zhang Zhen was suddenly surprised and asked, "What, do we have any other projects to do?" ”

At this time, Zhang Fatzi nodded and said, "Yes!" We also want to build another embankment on the Nen River, south of the Iron Fort. It is used for hydroelectric power generation and water storage. ”

Chen Yuan explained: "Due to the increasing number of our residents, the power supply of the Iron Castle has begun to be strained. If we don't increase the power plant, I'm afraid there will be a power shortage next summer. And after this battle of the Iron Fort, we also found that it is still necessary to build a dam in the downstream area of the Iron Castle. In this way, the next time the zombies bury our upstream and want to cut off the flow of the Nenjiang River, the water here will not run out. Even if zombies destroy our dam, they can't be wiped clean all at once. ”

"That's right!" Du Ruhai couldn't help nodding: "It's not so easy to demolish the dam, and if you don't do it, the zombies themselves will be washed away by the water." And as long as the dam is not completely dismantled, more or less water will be left in the Nenjiang River. It's better than cutting off the flow entirely. ”

Chen Yuan nodded and said, "Yes." And now that the zombies have helped us cut off the Nenjiang River, it is also a good opportunity to repair the dam. ”

Everyone nodded.

As a result, five major projects in the Steel Castle began to be carried out simultaneously.

Thanks to the Iron Castle, the population is now large enough.

It's winter again, and the agricultural population is idle. And many factories have also stopped working because of the destruction of zombies.

In addition, Kamiya Island, Blackwater Settlement, and Oil City have all sent a large number of people to help.

There are enough people.

All projects have begun to be carried out in an orderly manner.

In particular, regarding the construction of new industrial cities, hydropower stations and the northern defense line, the Heishui settlement has raised its hands and feet to show its support.

After the new construction of the industrial city, the Heishui settlement also expressed its willingness to invest in the industrial city to open factories. Develop their industry with the help of the infrastructure of the Steel Castle.

They will also have the opportunity to be the beneficiaries of the construction of hydropower stations. Because after the construction of the hydropower station, the excess power of the Steel Fortress can be transmitted to the Blackwater settlement through the power grid left over from before the end of the world. It also relieves their power pressure.

And the establishment of the northern defense line can protect their safety.

Therefore, the Blackwater Settlement has really spared no effort to help the three major projects of the Steel Castle this time.

And just when several major projects of the Steel Castle were progressing in an orderly manner, there was a news from Shenwu Pass......
