Fang Zhou, I'm just a farmer, not Shennong!

In all the battles that Ursus fought in the east and west, there were not many cases in which the entire army was truly annihilated.

Therefore, the Grand Duke of Baikal's first reaction was that the scouts had made a mistake, or that the bodies frozen in the snow had already been there and were not from the three regiments.

After all, the uninhabited permafrost itself is a huge cold storage. If someone dies in it, at most they will be frozen and buried in the snow. There is no possibility of decay at all. Therefore, a corpse dug out from decades ago is still likely to be regarded as the most recent.

however.

The moment the investigation team came back to report.

Everything is settled.

All of these were three regiments of the Second Corps of the Third Army.

Grand Duke Baikal's face turned pale.

"How is it possible... Has the medical examiner ever determined such a death?"

The forensic doctor standing nearby stepped forward and said, "Your Excellency, according to our autopsy investigation, none of the people had any external injuries and all died of freezing..."

“Frozen to death?!”

General Becondo slammed his hands on the table, shaking. "The soldiers' clothing is sufficient to keep them active in the frozen ground for extended periods. How could they possibly freeze to death..."

The other generals were more or less gloating, but it showed on each of their faces.

They all knew what the loss of three regiments meant. Losing several thousand people in one go was a devastating loss. A general had only more than 30,000 people under his command, and losing several thousand in one go was equivalent to losing a quarter of his troops in one go. This loss was not small.

and.

Although the four generals were all under the Third Army, as colleagues of equal status, there was naturally a competitive relationship between them. If one side suffered losses, the others would naturally be very happy.

"According to autopsy analysis, these thousands of soldiers were either asleep or unconscious, which caused their blood flow to decrease, resulting in insufficient body heat supply and imbalanced body temperature. Although no gaseous components were detected in their bodies, I suspect there is a very likely method to render an entire unit completely comatose."

"so?"

The Grand Duke of Baikal's gaze was fixed on the forensic doctor. The middle-aged forensic doctor felt as if a thorn was on his back, and his whole body seemed to be soaked by such a gaze.

"Your Excellency, I suspect that the infected group possesses a spell or weapon capable of causing widespread sleep!"

The medical examiner tried to express all his thoughts as much as possible to avoid being blamed in the future.

And this moment.

Grand Duke Baikal looked extremely embarrassed. As one of the grand dukes who advocated war, it should have been a fairly easy task for him to send troops to encircle and suppress this infected organization due to some special reasons.

Unexpectedly, among this team of infected people who looked like they could be easily crushed, there were such dangerous means.

"Since the 'Great Rebellion', this is the first time our Third Army has suffered such heavy losses, lost to a group of infected. As a regular army, we unexpectedly died at the hands of despicable infected people. This is a shame, a shame for us as soldiers, and we must wash away this shame!"

At this moment, a general next to Grand Duke Baikal stood up and said.

"Your Excellency the Duke, perhaps we can send out the real elite!"

Grand Duke Baikal stretched out his hand to stop the other party from speaking.

"I already have a choice..."

............

Lu Yuan and Tallulah signed a cooperation agreement between the Minliang Association and the Integration Movement. Afterwards, the Integration Movement and the Minliang Association left Longmen and set foot on the land of Ursus.

In the past few days, Lu Yuan has been staying in the integration movement camp. Since the potatoes have been planted, he doesn't need to go to the fields every day to process them. He just needs to take a stroll.

During his free time, Lu Yuan would go out to continue his potato cold resistance experiment after pouring the "catalytic" energy every day. If he had free time, Lu Yuan would also take the initiative to serve as a teacher to many younger compatriots in the integration movement.

As time went by, Lu Yuan, with his approachable and easy-going attitude and always sunny smile, quickly established a good relationship with most of the ordinary infected people in the Integration Movement, as well as the Shield Guards and Snow Monster Teams.

I am like good friends with Alina, Frost Star, and Talulah. When we have nothing to do at night, we get together to chat.

In his free time, Lu Yuan also wrote several letters and sent them to Lin Yuxia, Shi Huaiya and Ansuo respectively, which also included things about Tallulah and the Integration Movement.

of course.

In the letter, Lu Yuan once again emphasized that he could only tell Chen Sir about his whereabouts and no one else.

Just like this, half a month passed in a flash.

Today is a particularly special day for the Integration Movement.

Two kilometers outside the integration movement camp, there is a two-hundred-acre potato field surrounded by a low fence, which is catalyzed by Lu Yuan every day.

Half a month passed.

These two hundred acres of potatoes are fully mature.

Today, all members of the Integration Movement, including the Patriot Infected Guerrillas and the Snow Monster Squad, gathered here, looking at the potatoes in front of them that were proudly growing lush leaves in the snowfield, without being weighed down by the snow at all.

Everyone's heart was filled with joy.

The happiest people among them are the more than 100 ordinary infected people who are responsible for this large field. As growers, they are extremely proud and proud in their hearts.

Especially when the potato leaves in the field they are responsible for grow more lush, they will pull their friends, point to the field they are responsible for and proudly say that it is their responsibility and the potatoes they grow there are big and round.

"Excavation!"

At Lu Yuan's command, the members of the Integration Movement, who had been ready for action, ran towards the field excitedly.

Grab the potato roots and pull them upwards.

As potatoes emerged from the soil and the faint smell of mud filled the nasal cavity, everyone's face was filled with excitement and happiness.

Since each field is managed by a different person, and each person is different, the quality of the potatoes will inevitably vary.

Some potatoes are big and plump, while others are particularly small and miniature. After laughing at the miniature potatoes of their fellow farmers, they see that the potatoes in their own fields are even smaller. They will immediately restrain their expressions, lower their heads silently, and wait for the people around them to laugh at them.

Such a cheerful atmosphere was not seen in previous integration movements.

In fact, the moment these compatriots became infected, they rarely showed such happy expressions.

Two hundred acres in total.

Soon, all the potatoes were harvested and neatly stacked in huge wooden boxes.

Weigh it immediately.

Two hundred acres yields approximately 300,000 kilograms.

On average, the yield per mu is about 1,500 kilograms.

Although the average yield per mu is somewhat lower than that grown by Lu Yuan himself, it has also reached the normal yield.

after all.

Lu Yuan can ensure a perfect level in terms of water and fertilizer, but the infected compatriots are planting for the first time, and Lu Yuan did not instruct them one by one on the amount of fertilizer and water required, so being able to achieve a regular yield is already quite good for beginners.

“Three hundred thousand kilograms of potatoes!!”

Everyone exclaimed in surprise.

no way.

This number is an astronomical figure for most people. Looking at the large wooden boxes filled one after another, everyone felt a strong dizziness in their heads.

Three hundred thousand kilograms of potatoes, how long will it take them to eat them all?

If each person showed off one kilogram of potatoes a day, 400 people would have to show off 400 kilograms a day. And these 300,000 kilograms... would be enough for those 400 people to show off for more than a year! !

Even if they splurge a little and eat a little more on a normal day, it will be enough for them to eat for a whole year!!

Freedom of eating!!!

All the infected people in the Integration Movement cheered immediately. They naturally knew where these 300,000 kilograms of potatoes came from. They jumped up and cheered Lu Yuan's name.

"Mr. Lu! Mr. Lu! Mr. Lu!!!"

The cheers for Lu Yuan were endless, and Lu Yuan, Shuangxing, Tallulah and the others also enjoyed it very much.

Three hundred thousand kilograms of potatoes were transported back to the camp by the shield guards. Because there were so many potatoes, they were piled up like a small hill.

The original warehouse was obviously not enough, so Lu Yuan immediately expanded it to a larger one, piled the potatoes in it, dried them, and preserved them to extend their shelf life.

Because of the bumper potato harvest.

Tonight.

For the first time ever, Tallulah not only cooked a lot of potatoes to feed everyone, but also took out some meat and bacon stored in the warehouse, threw them into the pot, and cooked them with the potatoes to make potato soup.

The infected fellows enjoyed this meal very happily. They were arm in arm, jumping and dancing around the central bonfire. The freedom of food made the pressure in their hearts less than half. Tonight should be the happiest night of the integration movement.

And in the conference hall.

Lu Yuan, Tallulah and the other four sat inside, listening to the cheers and laughter outside, and they were all extremely happy.

"The food crisis has been resolved for now. We can feed twice as many people as before."

Lu Yuan said while looking out the window.

"This is all thanks to you, Xiao Yuan."

Tallulah laughed.

“That’s what I should do.”

"However, now that the food problem has been solved for now, we should consider the following issues. The most important one is how to successfully grow stronger while being hunted by Ursus."

Lu Yuan's words made Tallulah silent for a moment.

"Actually, I think the biggest problem isn't the pursuit, but how did the enemy accurately find us?"

Tallulah said.

Frost Star nodded. "That's true. Every time we stay in one place for a while, the military, police, or infected patrols find us. We have no choice but to constantly move camp between encounters. But many of these attacks have been inexplicable, including this one. There was no warning at all, as if the enemy knew we were there."

At this time, Lu Yuan suddenly said.

"Perhaps there are some kind of enemy informants within the Reunion Movement, or something else that can be located?"

Volume 1: Chapter 92 We are the innovators! & Sir Chen: "Little Tower!!"

"Informants...other 'things' that can be located..."

After hearing Lu Yuan's words, Patriot, Tallulah, and Frost Star all fell into deep thought.

"It is impossible to completely rule out or confirm..."

Tallulah said, "Our Reunion Movement isn't an extremist organization. Once you join, you can't leave. From the past to the present, every once in a while, there are infected people who can't stand the life in the organization and escape. We've never stopped such situations."

Lu Yuan pinched his chin and said slowly, "This is indeed a huge hidden danger that will expose our whereabouts."

Lu Yuan pinched his chin and said, "Since we can't really be sure, then we might as well start from now, from this camp."

"Before, those infected compatriots fled because they were not hungry or for other reasons. Now, I think our compatriots should have no reason to flee."

"Well, Mr. Patriot, I'll have to trouble you and your shield guards to patrol and stand guard around here. Please keep an eye out for anyone escaping or birds in the sky."

"After completely ruling out human error, if the enemy reappears without warning, then we'll need to consider more complex situations..."

Tallulah and the Patriot nodded, agreeing with Lu Yuan's idea.

"Now that the food problem has been solved, what should we do next? Xiaota, Mr. Patriot, have you ever thought about this?"

Tallulah replied, "Perhaps we can continue to expand our team as much as possible, make our team more numerous and stronger, and absorb more infected people to fight against the group army?"

“It’s a bit difficult…”

The Patriot shook his head: "The equipment...is inferior...the experience...is insufficient...to pose an effective threat..."

As the indestructible wall of Ursus, the Patriots understand the Ursus army better than anyone else.

Even though the Ursus army is no longer as strong as it was in its heyday, it is still far beyond the reach of the infected organization.

Lu Yuan also nodded: "I wonder if Mr. Patriot could tell me about the current situation in Ursus. As an outsider, I have only been here for a short time and don't know much about it..."

The Patriot nodded and explained slowly in a hoarse voice.

According to the Patriots.

Lu Yuan also gradually understood the current situation and predicament of Ursus.

The current emperor, Fyodor Vladimirovich, is not as radical as his father. He is gentle in character, opposes continued expansion and wins, and tries to change the country's treatment of infected people, but unfortunately with little success.

In addition, due to his own abilities and personality, he could not truly become an emperor who dominated everything. His talents were destined not to make him a sage king through the ages. At most, he was just a mediocre king with a kind heart but not much ability.

During the "Great Rebellion" that broke out in Ursus, the initiator of the rally and march to force the nobles to stop persecuting the infected had the courage to do so, and to a certain extent, it was also supported by the new emperor in his heart.

It's a pity that it failed.
