"By the way, Brother Chen, now that we have diesel, do we continue to buy diesel from Du Mei in the oil city in the future? In addition, is it possible to carry out the dumping plan of saltpeter? I can't wait to see Wang Qiang come and beg us in person with a shy face! ”

After Chen Yuan finished talking to everyone about the expansion of the army, Zhang Fatzi began to talk about the use of resources.

Chen Yuan replied: "The part of diesel can continue to be purchased from the oil city. After all, it is relatively close to buy from them, and it is more expensive to transport it from Xinjiang Province. It's just that the quantity of purchases from them does not increase and the current amount of purchases is fine. If it's not enough, let's bring some back from Xinjiang Province for a while, it's enough. As for saltpeter, you recently sent someone to contact the settlement over there in Blackwater City. First of all, tell them that we can sell them saltpeter at half the price of the heavenly city, as much as we want. When Amagi starts to lower the price, our price can be gradually reduced until it is half of the price they originally sold us. That's one-fortieth of what it is now! ”

"Hehe, this trick is really a draw!" Liu Jinlong said with a smile: "With their daily production of saltpeter and the difficulty of processing, they can sell it at half the price in the past, and even if they do, the grain they get back will not be enough to feed all of them." But Liu Jinlong also asked cautiously: "But we won't lose in this way, right?" ”

Chen Yuan smiled and replied, "Don't worry, you can't lose!" The nitrate content of the saltpeter mine in Xinjiang Province is 13%, while the nitrate content of the saltpeter mine in Tiancheng is only 3%, a difference of more than four times. One?? Kanshu COM and we use mechanical open-pit mining, which is much more efficient than them, and the amount of manpower invested is also less. Even if it is doubled, we will not lose. ”

"Good!" Zhang Fatzi said: "I will immediately arrange for someone to go to the north today to contact the people of Blackwater City. ”

Jiang Wenli touched her fist and said angrily: "Hmph, I'm finally going to have this evil breath!" There are no pants left to make them lose. ”

Chen Yuan couldn't help but feel a chill.

He then went on to ask the Department of Agriculture: "What is the situation in agriculture?" When I came back yesterday I saw that some of the land had been turned over and seemed to be larger than we had expected. ”

The director of agriculture replied: "While the weather is still cold, we started in advance and turned over the land that needs to be cultivated first, so that the eggs in the soil can be turned out and frozen to death, so as to reduce the pests and diseases of the next year's crops." Due to the increase in the labor force of the Steel Castle, we have decided to raise this year's cultivation target from 450,000 mu to 600,000 mu. The range extends from a radius of 10 km to 12 km from the Iron Fort. We are going to divide the 12 kilometers into three planting circles, with the outermost circle planted with easy-to-care wheat, the middle circle planted with rice, and the innermost circle planted with soybeans, corn and peanuts, so as to enrich our diet. ”

Chen Yuan nodded with great satisfaction: "This is very good. ”

He stressed again: "Agriculture is our top priority today, and if you have any difficulties on your side, tell me directly. As long as you need it, all other departments can cooperate with you! ”

The director of agriculture smiled and said, "There is no problem for the time being. Everything is developing well in the animal husbandry sector, and the seeds, sowing equipment, irrigation equipment, and manpower for farming have been properly prepared, and it is now almost the beginning of spring in mid-April. ”

Chen Yuan nodded, and then asked, "Fatty, what about the population?" Will this expansion have an impact on all aspects of our production? ”

"The impact is there, but it shouldn't be big." Zhang Fatzi replied: "At present, the total registered population of the Iron Castle is 42,000, of which 36,000 live in the Iron Castle. So after you left, we built two new living quarters behind East 1, and there are now 13 districts in total. However, we have recently added some new factories, and the labor force is still a bit tight. On the premise of ensuring the agricultural population, it is still the old way, and each factory is divided into indicators, so that it will not have a big impact on the factories. ”

Chen Yuan nodded, indicating understanding.

The population of the Steel Fortress has always been a bottleneck for their development, compared to the population of Shenwu City and several other large settlements in Ji Province, which are hundreds of thousands at every turn. Their population is indeed too small.

But this is also something that can't be helped, after all, the foundation is too bad. There is also a big gap in prestige, which cannot be made up by a radio station.

After all, they are the orthodox army and the remnants of the previous government. Look at the performance of the two scientists when they come back. When the Iron Castle needed to beg grandpa and grandma to join in, people sat there and didn't move, and some people took the initiative to join.

Chen Yuan finally said: "Then notify the people to go down, and the conscription work will start tomorrow." Aim to conclude the recruitment process within three days and then start training. ”

"What about Five Lotus City?" Liu Jinlong reminded.

Chen Yuan snorted coldly and said, "Didn't you say that the person who robbed our mercenary group is the brother-in-law of Qiu Kuncan, the city lord of Five Lotus City!" I don't think they will hand over people so easily, after all, they are also a big force of tens of thousands of people. It is estimated that a fight will inevitably occur. ”

Chen Yuan looked at Xu Kai and asked, "How is the intelligence gathering work of Five Lotus City going?" ”

"They are coming back one after another, and they have found out their defensive deployment, the location of the command headquarters, and the firepower situation."

Chen Yuan nodded and said, "Okay, then Lao Liu, wait for the meeting to end, you will immediately return to the General Staff Headquarters, and then formulate a combat plan with this information." We have to be ready to fight first. ”

Liu Jinlong nodded and said, "Understood!" ”

*************

The high-level meeting of the Self-Salvation Army lasted for almost a day and ended at 4 p.m.

At this time, the people sent by the Sun County Refuge to surrender had also arrived at the Iron Fort. They hesitated for a long time before they made up their minds. But after all, the time limit given by Chen Yuan was not exceeded.

Regarding the surrender of the Sun County Refuge, Chen Yuan naturally accepted it gladly. In the morning, I was still having a headache because the expansion of the self-rescue army had absorbed more than 1,000 laborers from the Iron Fort, but in the afternoon, it was immediately solved, and more than 2,000 additional laborers were added. Let the fat man close his mouth.

So in the afternoon of the same day, Chen Yuan sent a company of troops and some staff to take over the Sun County Shelter and strengthen the defense force here.

According to the plan, in the next few days, all the personnel of the Sun County Shelter will be relocated to the Steel Castle.

In addition, the team that went to receive the Sun County Shelter also brought a large amount of supplies, including abundant food. When they saw the food that was mixed with meat and vegetables, many of the survivors at the Sun County shelter cried. It's like a dream. In addition, after seeing the soldiers and weapons and equipment sent by the Self-Salvation Army to strengthen the defense force, the people of the Sun County Shelter were secretly glad that they had made the right decision.

That night, they not only had the most delicious dinner in more than half a year, but also had a thorough night's sleep. Don't worry about when the zombies will suddenly break through their already impregnable walls of the Vault.

On the other hand, until 12 o'clock that night, Chen Yuan and the others did not wait for the reply of the opposite side of Wulian City.

So Chen Yuan ordered Liu Jinlong: "Old Liu, tell me to go down, let the troops participating in the battle this time be ready for battle, and the troops will set off on time at 8 o'clock tomorrow morning." Since they won't hand over the murderer, we'll have to do it ourselves! ”
