In the Supreme Conference Hall of the People's Federation.

President Leon sat in the center of the conference table, and on his right hand was the highest officer of the People's Union, General William, and below him, the five commanders attached to the War Department, Colonel Daryl, Colonel Moore, Colonel Glenn, Colonel Aggie, and Colonel Frank.

In the center of the round table of the conference, a huge three-dimensional projection of the map of America was clearly displayed in front of everyone.

The region of Georgia is highlighted, as are the other four states that are adjacent to it.

"Today, the entire Georgia region is in a relatively safe state, and the threat of zombies or marauders has basically been eliminated."

"We, the residents of the People's Federation, were able to work freely on this land, collecting and cultivating all kinds of resources on the land."

"But this danger is not limited to Georgia, and if this peaceful life is to continue, we must find a way to contain the zombies and raiders in other neighboring states, prevent them from entering our territory, and protect the safety of the Human Federation."

William's voice was still so serious and loud.

"Therefore, in accordance with the instructions of His Excellency President Lyons, we will build four small military forts outside the borders of the four states adjacent to Georgia, and set up more than 60 military posts in Georgia."

"These four fortresses are not only a barrier for us to protect our homeland, but also a bridgehead for us to explore other states."

"The four states that are currently adjacent to us are Tennessee, Alabama, North Carolina, and Florida."

As William read out the names of the four states, he marked them separately on the screen in the center of the round table and described the situation in a few short sentences.

After the five colonels had read the information on the screen in detail, William looked up at the president in the center of the meeting, and after Leon nodded to him, the highest officer of the military department continued to speak:

"Of the four states, Tennessee, run by Ms. Kevila, already has a very suitable prison base for us to use."

"With a little modification, this stronghold can be transformed into a self-sustaining military fortress."

William turned his gaze around the faces of the five colonels, and finally fixed on Glenn's face, and said:

"Colonel Glenn, Your Excellency the President will appoint you commander of the state of Tennessee, and you will be responsible for all military affairs in the direction of Tennessee."

"Do you have the confidence to complete this task?"

Hearing this, Glenn did not hesitate, and immediately stood up and gave a military salute to President Lyons, and then to General William, and replied loudly:

"I will go all out to complete this task, and I will die for the sake of the People's Federation."

Both Leon and William nodded appreciatively, very satisfied that Glenn had this realization.

Subsequently, General William assigned Alabama and North Carolina to Colonel Aggie and Colonel Moore.

Alabama is close to the western part of America, rich in agricultural resources, minerals and wasteland, according to the information obtained by Lyon, it also has unexploited and depleted oil resources, although the reserves are not large, but once occupied, it can still provide a long supply of fuel for the United Nations.

North Carolina has many mountains and rivers and forests, the number of cities is not large, it is known as the largest concentration of villages in the United States, there are many hunters here, it was once inhabited by Indian tribes, and immigrants from various countries lived here in the early days.

Finally, Colonel William put his eyes on Colonel Frank's face and spoke:

"Colonel Frank, Florida is the most dangerous place in these four states, and it is full of a large number of nuclear radiation and mutant monsters, which may break through the border line of Georgia at any time and threaten the safety of the residents of the Human Union."

"Moreover, there used to be a Cuban military organization called the Shark Gang, which acted fiercely and had a grudge against people."

"The president thinks that you have the ability to defend this front, and the fortress in Florida should be entrusted to you to complete, can you complete this task?"

Frank stood up, and with some reluctance gave a military salute to Lyon, and then to General William, and replied loudly:

"I will live up to the trust of the People's Federation and will definitely complete the tasks assigned to me by the organization."

William nodded in satisfaction, turned to Leon and gave a military salute, and said loudly:

"Your Excellency, the mission of the military department has been announced, do you have any other instructions to add?"

Leon shook his head, smiled kindly, and said:

"The task of building a military fortress is a long-term and tedious task."

"You don't have to rush to set off, we will first send a construction team, a transport team and an advance force to transport the materials to the vicinity of these four fortresses in advance, which will take about two weeks."

"You can take advantage of this time to take care of some personal affairs, and after you go to the fortress to guard, there is not much time for you to return to the base for permanent residence."

He looked at Darryl, who seemed to want to say something because he was not assigned to the task, and said with a smile:

"Daryl, you don't have to worry, I also have important tasks in the future, and I need you to complete them."

"It's just the right day, you don't have anything to do, why don't you enjoy it with me, how about these Louisden limited edition cigars found in the Atlanta vault, each of which is said to have been worth more than $50,000 each."

"Now it's a smoke and one less."

No one would refuse the President's invitation, and when the meeting was over, Leon led the group to his cigar room.

On July 15th, in the Moriarty Medical Center, Lyon's third child was born, a lovely girl, Hathaway, as the mother of the child, gave the girl a name, called Emilia, Emilia Custer.

For the birth of this child, in addition to Leon and his wife, the happiest is of course the iron wolf Frank, this iron-blooded soldier, who seems to have forgotten that the child's father is Leon, whom he hates, and attaches more importance to his niece than Hathaway, not only bought a lot of toys, but also longed to stay in the hospital 24 hours a day to accompany the child.

And on the night of the fifth day after Emilia was born, when Leon was playing a multiplayer game with his four wives, the north of the night sky suddenly lit up like daylight again, which lasted for nearly half a minute, which was very dazzling.

Leon put on his pajamas, went to the floor-to-ceiling window, and looked at the light in the sky, he knew that there was another nuclear explosion in another place.

This is the second time, no, it should be said that the second time they can observe it with the naked eye.

But this time, probably because of the very long distance, the survivors of the entire state of Georgia could no longer feel any movement except for the dazzling light in the night sky, and because of the previous experience, the residents of the People's Federation did not feel panicked, but treated this nuclear explosion very calmly.

Early the next morning, Professor Jacob handed in the report he had rushed out overnight.

According to the professor's report, the location of the nuclear explosion was more than 2,000 kilometers away in Indiana, less than 300 kilometers from the famous city of Chicago.

It is close to Lake Michigan, one of the Great Lakes in the United States, and is one of the most famous natural harbors in North America.

In addition, the report mentions that if the city of Chicago is the center, there are 10 nuclear power plants within 1,000 kilometers of Lake Michigan alone.

Perhaps in the future, that area will become the most radioactive place in North America.

Looking at Professor Jacob's report, Leon sighed in his heart, although this nuclear explosion is not a threat to Georgia, but it also warns Leon that as time goes by, there will be more and more unstable factors in the world, affecting the survival of all life.

However, soon, a week passed, and the second nuclear explosion did not cause any waves among the residents of the People's Union.

The four colonels, Glenn, Aggie, Moore, and Frank, after two weeks of repairs, each went to the assigned fortress with 200 union veterans and the same number of workers, as well as a small number of engineers and researchers.

Among them, the iron wolf Frank is the most reluctant, Leon saw with his own eyes that this iron-blooded hunk told him a thousand times, and asked Hathaway to send him a photo of Emilia every week, and only after his sister agreed, he was willing to set off.

And in the coming years, they will continue to strengthen the defense of the fortress and increase the protective area of the fortress.

Let these four fortresses be like lighthouses standing in these four areas, illuminating the surrounding environment, expelling monsters, guarding the security of the border, and continuously recruiting fresh blood from various regions to contribute to the great organization of the United Community of Mankind.

After the departure of the four troops, on this day, when Leon was in the office to deal with official business, Avril suddenly connected to his communication and said softly:

"Your Excellency, Mr. Constantine is on his way to the base, and he has brought back 300 survivors from Florida this time as well, do you need to meet him?"

Hearing the name Constantine, Leon immediately frowned, as if he had smelled the sour smell of his body from the name.

However, in the past half a year, Konstantin has been working very hard.

In the dangerous state of Florida, relying on the resources and equipment provided to him by Leon, this guy has sent back more than 300 Florida survivors one after another.

Although many of them are radiation sickness patients who need to spend a lot of medical resources to rescue, after saving people, these refugees who crawled out of the living hell are still very easy to bewitch.

Moreover, most of these people are not of authentic white blood, and many of them are smuggled from all over the world of various races, and these people who have climbed out of poor countries are more hard-working, less educated, and very easy to control hard labor.

Leon picked up the communication and said helplessly:

"Prepare a sumptuous dinner for this guy Konstantin and the refugees who have been rescued from Florida."

"Let these suffering people feel the enthusiasm of our people's association."
