The time was fast into September.

In other words, the surviving humans on Earth have been surviving for a full year in the last days.

Compared to other survivor settlements, Steelcastle has had a good time in the past year.

Safety here is guaranteed.

In the face of two large-scale zombie sieges, the zombie hordes were easily defeated. A 65-kilometre security zone has also been established around the Steel Fort.

The defense of more than a dozen resource points, large and small, is also very solid. A large defense zone centered on the Steel Fort and the Fort of Hope has been formed, integrating production, reconnaissance, absorption of refugees and defense.

In addition, there are 5 field infantry regiments, 2 garrison regiments, 1 artillery regiment, 1 fire support regiment, 1 tank battalion, 1 sniper brigade, 1 special operations brigade, and 1 special intelligence squadron, totaling nearly 10,000 troops.

Food was adequate.

Although it has been consumed for a year, the warehouse still has a mountain of various types of food, and even without replenishment, this food is enough for the current population of the Iron Castle to consume for 3 years.

What's more, outside the steel fort, as many as 600,000 acres of various grain crops are about to mature. After the harvest, there will be enough food for 1.2 million people for a year. The current population of the Iron Castle is only just 90,000.

In terms of vegetables, on today's Jiangxin Island, a large number of plastic greenhouses have been built for planting vegetables and fruits, and fresh vegetables are put into the ground every day.

In terms of meat, there is a steady supply of meat every week, except for the hunting ground resource point in the north. The chickens and ducks on the farm have been released from the second column, and there are as many as 1,000 of them. Pigs also came out of a barn, the first batch of 50.

Although these chickens, ducks and fat pigs are raised on pure feed, ho care! At this time, everyone is already very happy to have meat to eat, who cares whether it is free-range chickens or feed chickens.

These chickens and ducks are kept in small cages, and they basically do not exercise except for eating and sleeping every day. It can be raised and slaughtered in less than a month and a half at the earliest. Pigs, on the other hand, only take a little over 4 months. Therefore, the steel castle at this time can no longer be simply described as having enough food. These situations were transmitted back to Shenwu City through Qin Mengyao, and even Shenwu City was very jealous.

There is adequate shelter from the elements. Needless to say, the living environment of the Steel Castle is clean and hygienic, and the air is good.

People have been strengthened and are stronger than they used to be.

All of this brings smiles to the faces of the survivors who live in the Iron Keep.

At this time, the Steel Castle was already busier than usual.

The countdown to the autumn harvest has begun, and winter is not far away.

Chen Yuan asked all departments to make all preparations for the autumn harvest and ensure the smooth completion of the autumn harvest.

"As you all know, the situation we are facing now is not easy," he said at a working meeting. Surrounded by strong enemies, as many as 8 corpse generals are distributed within a radius of less than 150 kilometers from us. They could come to your door at any time. Therefore, the work of this autumn harvest is very important, which is related to our survival and development in the next year or two, or even longer. ”

"Only when today's autumn harvest can be successfully completed, and everyone sees the grain, the people below will have the bottom in their hearts and let go of their hands and feet to do it! If you mess up......" Chen Yuan paused and said: "If you mess up, don't expect next year and the year after!" Because the situation will only get worse then. Once the king corpse appears in Qiha City, it is difficult to guarantee that it will not take the million zombie army in Qiha City to the north! ”

"Hiss......" Everyone couldn't help but take a breath of cold air.

Chen Yuan continued: "So during this time, all departments cannot relax their vigilance. Especially in the intelligence department, the monitoring work in all directions must be in place to prevent zombies or others from destroying it. ”

"Understood!" Xu Kai nodded.

"The Ministry of Agriculture must do a good job of fire prevention, and the grain that has been grown with great difficulty must not be burned by zombies or other people." He said to Zhu Changshun: "Lao Zhu, you and Xiaoliu have work experience in this regard, so please assist in the work of the Ministry of Agriculture during this time." ”

Zhu Changshun nodded and said, "No problem!" ”

So people have all kinds of harvesters to maintain. If the warehouse is not enough, it will also be expanded. Vegetables need to be stored, and vegetable greenhouses alone may not be enough in winter, so people plant Chinese cabbage, radishes, and potatoes in advance that are easy to store.

All work is being carried out in an orderly manner.

However, by the end of September, the problem still arose.

At 2 o'clock in the evening of September 30, Xu Kai urgently called Chen Yuan and reported: "Fort Chief, someone is rushing to harvest the grain in Linqian Village and the underground city of Baidui Mountain!" We also killed and captured the men we had arranged to guard the farmland on both sides. ”

"What!" Chen Yuan sat up directly from the bed in surprise and asked, "Who did it!" ”

"It's not clear yet! Neither of the two settlements was able to escape! It was the secret sentry set up outside the two settlements that came back to report. ”

Linqian Village and the White Dusk Mountain Underground City were the two settlements that were attacked by the corpse generals of Nenjiang County before. After being saved by the Iron Castle, the survivors here joined the Iron Castle, and the crops planted naturally fell under the name of the Iron Castle.

The two places add up to nearly 3,000 acres, which is not a lot.

So although it's a bit far away, the Iron Castle's Department of Agriculture still sends people to take care of the crops here every day. In the last days, every grain should be cherished.

Now that the grain is almost ripe, the Ministry of Agriculture has sent more than a dozen militiamen to guard in two places. In case small-scale zombies and animals spoil the crops.

As for the large-scale zombie invasion. There are intelligence officers from the Self-Rescue Army watching it in several directions, so you don't have to be afraid that you won't have time to escape.

It's just that I didn't expect that under such circumstances, someone silently sneaked into the vicinity of the two settlements to grab their food!

So Chen Yuan immediately asked, "Where did these people come from?" How did they suddenly appear in these two settlements? ”

Xu Kai replied, "Castle Chief, they came from the boat downstream!" ”

"That's what happened!" Chen Yuan immediately understood what the problem was.

The Self-Rescue Army has set up a very tight monitoring system 25 kilometers away from the Iron Fort. Anyone or zombie who wants to enter this 25 kilometers will be discovered. It's the same whether it's from land, air, or water.

But beyond 25 km, there is no way to be so tight. This time, in order to guard against the corpse generals in all directions, the self-rescue army sent a lot of eyeliners at a distance of 60 kilometers. However, reconnaissance forces were not deployed specifically for waterways.

Chen Yuan frowned and said, "It seems that the other party has premeditated!" ”
