22, 1/16.

Although Tianzhu and Assam have not yet formally ceased fighting, both sides have a very tacit understanding and have stopped the head-on exchange of fire.

However, Assam did not respond positively to Lucia's mediation, but chose to "close the country", sealing all borders and laying large minefields on the border.

The outside world also feels very troubled by the completely closed Assam region, and it is clear that Assam's behavior does not look like the behavior of a normal force at all.

Honsavady.

Rangoon.

Interior of the office building of COFCO's Honsavady branch.

Lai Shengli got a lot of information, and there was also a special technical assistance team from China, which was also here at this time.

The leader of the aid team is a man with glasses.

"Manager Lai, what is the grain production and inventory in Honsavady this year?"

Lai Shengli put down the analysis report of satellite remote sensing: "This year, Honsavady can produce about 30 million tons of rice, plus corn, soybeans, potatoes and sweet potatoes, the total can reach 110 million tons." ”

After a pause, he continued: "As for the stocks, there are no official reserves in Honsavady, but the reserves of the three major groups can actually be regarded as official reserves, and according to the information disclosed, their grain reserves should be about 33 million tons. ”

The man with glasses picked up the analysis report on Honsavady's grain exports, which listed the quantity, export destination and price of Honsawady's grain exports.

According to the data collected by COFCO.

At present, Huaguo is the largest grain purchaser in Honsavady, and the contracts to be executed this year have reached 32.63 million tons, including 14.27 million tons of soybeans, 11.3 million tons of corn, 270,000 tons of sweet sorghum, 560,000 tons of peanuts, and the rest are rice.

The second largest purchaser was Persia, followed by Luzon, West Ba, and South Goryeo.

These purchase contracts are well documented, so the man with glasses does not doubt their authenticity, and what he really cares about is the 33 million tons of grain in Honsavady.

After all, judging from satellite remote sensing data, the farmland in the entire Assam region has been completely deserted, and only a part of the river valley plain in the Zhu region still maintains agricultural production.

You know, the entire Assam region, plus the Zhu region, has a population of 55 million.

With such a large population, at least 11 million tons of food are consumed a year.

If there is no agricultural production now, what will Assam do to feed 55 million people?

In the area around Assam, only Honsavady can supply such a huge amount of food, which is why the man with glasses came to Honsavaddy this time.

He has basically determined that Honsawwady is behind the support of Assam, but 11 million tons of grain is not a small amount.

The border between Assam and Honsavady is basically mountainous, and there is not even a decent road, which makes the man with glasses very puzzled how Honsawwady transported grain to Assam.

This is another reason why Tianzhu chose a temporary truce.

After all, the 55 million people do not farm themselves, and even if Assam robs the previous grain stocks, it will definitely not last long.

Tianzhu is waiting for Assam to collapse on his own, and then take the opportunity to regain lost ground.

The man with glasses looked at the satellite remote sensing map, raised his glasses, and fell into thought.

Suddenly, a thought came to the man with glasses: 'Is it an underground tunnel?' ’

He thought of the situation in which Assam was almost completely engaged in tunnels and small mountain villages at this time, and that the cities of Assam were now basically populated.

Tens of millions of people are in the mountains and underground, which is indeed very crazy, and it also shows that Assam's tunnel technology is good.

If a large number of tunnels can be excavated in the mountainous area on the border between Honsawaddy and Assam, it will indeed be possible to avoid satellite reconnaissance in the sky.

It's just that the man with glasses estimated that with the current situation that Assam is almost completely in a wartime mechanism, it needs not only 11 million tons of food, but also a large number of daily necessities, guns and ammunition.

To meet the needs of this level of material transportation, the number of underground tunnels must be quite large.

The glasses man used his mobile phone to check the data of Huaguo last year, the total length of the railway was 147,000 kilometers, and a total of 4.77 billion tons of goods were transported in 21 years.

Even if the railway transportation speed in Honsavady is the same as that of the Chinese Railway, it will take about 1,000 kilometers of railway.

And this is an underground railway, and the man with glasses suddenly felt his scalp tingle when he thought of that amount of work.

Thousands of kilometers of subway, the man with glasses laughed at himself in his heart, he thought too much, and quickly threw this unrealistic idea out of his mind.

But apart from the possibility of the Underground Railway's input, he couldn't think of any other possibility.

It's also a conundrum that plagues intelligence agencies around the world.

Honsavady and Dongbakistan, which are the most likely to import food and supplies into Assam, have been carefully analyzed several times by major intelligence agencies, but no problems have been found.

Obviously, the self-sustaining rate of the Assam branch is difficult for the outside world to understand.

It seems that 55 million people are a lot, but the more than 300 underground bases before the Assam branch can absorb 12 million people.

The current expansion project is expected to increase the number of underground bases to more than 1,000 within half a year, achieving the upper limit of 24 million underground population.

At the same time, the secret underground city hidden in the western mountains of Honsavady (part of which is the base of Doom) can also accommodate a population of 800~12 million.

The Zhuyu can accommodate a population of 3 million on the surface, and the underground base currently expanded in the Zhuyu can also accommodate a population of 5 million.

The rest of the population was in various mountainous areas, where small villages were established.

By the end of this year, each small mountain village will also build its own underground town one after another, and then go completely underground.

At present, Assam's grain reserves, partly relying on the previous seizure, have collected about 14.73 million tons of grain from the people, plus the 2.62 million tons of grain stored by the Assam branch in various underground bases, which is actually enough for so many people to eat for 18 months.

And the individual bases themselves can also produce grain and all kinds of food.

At present, the food self-sufficiency rate of the Assam branch is about 31%, which will increase to about 50% in June and about 90% by the end of the year.

And this self-sufficiency rate is actually calculated according to the size of the population of 55 million.

But in reality, there are now about 11 million people living in the western mountains of Honsavady, and this part of the population is supported by the Honsavady branch.

In other words, by the end of this year, the Assam branch would not be under much pressure to feed 44 million people.

There is no need for food imports from Honsavady.

In particular, the dozens of bases near the Assam oil and gas basin use the extracted gas to build bareless plantations underground, which not only achieve food self-sufficiency, but also produce a large amount of meat, eggs, milk, vegetables and fruits.

However, the bases in mountainous areas can be adapted to local conditions, and can engage in underground water power for those with underground water and gas power generation for oily shale.

If there is nothing to do, we will not expand the scale and maintain the status quo for the time being.

To the outside world, it seems that Assam has abandoned agricultural production, but in fact, Assam's agriculture is developing very fast.

After all, the crops in the lightless plantation are more than ten times more efficient at producing organic matter such as starch and sucrose.

This means that under the same conditions, the production efficiency of lightless indoor agriculture will be more than ten times higher than that of traditional lightless indoor agriculture.

For the Assam branch underground, this lightless indoor farming solves the lack of underground space and improves energy efficiency.
