Wearing hard hats and work clothes, the workers were busy at their respective posts. Some were laying bricks, one by one, gradually raising the wall; some were tying rebar, the thick steel bars becoming orderly in their hands; and some were installing pipes to ensure the smooth supply of water and electricity.
During the day, the sun is high...
The walls were reinforced and raised, and the defensive facilities were greatly improved.
The construction workers first conducted a comprehensive inspection and assessment of the existing wall, marking the weak links that needed reinforcement. Subsequently, large quantities of steel bars, cement, and bricks were continuously transported to the construction site.
Workers set to work enthusiastically, digging deep into the ground beneath the wall to ensure the new structure had a solid foundation. Steel bars were driven into the ground one by one and then tied together tightly with wire to form a sturdy frame.
Cement was mixed evenly and poured bucket by bucket into the frame to form a thick wall. Bricks were then laid layer by layer, each one carefully placed and hammered to ensure the wall was straight and flat.
As the project progressed, the wall continued to rise. The originally low sections were gradually filled in, and the height increased to a point where it was undeniably impressive. Sharp barbed wire was also installed at the top of the wall to prevent enemies from climbing over it.
The upgrades to the defensive infrastructure were comprehensive and detailed. The watchtowers were rebuilt, taller, and more sturdy. They were equipped with advanced observation and communication equipment, allowing sentries to detect distant threats earlier and issue alerts promptly.
The shooting holes are rationally distributed on the wall, and the angles are carefully designed to maximize the coverage of the surrounding area. Each shooting hole is equipped with a protective baffle to protect the safety of the shooter.
Large defensive artillery positions have been set up at key locations on the wall, with powerful artillery standing tall, ready to deliver a fatal blow to the invading enemy at any time.
At the same time, surveillance cameras are installed in every corner of the wall, monitoring the surrounding situation without blind spots. These cameras are connected to the base's command center, which can respond quickly if any abnormal situation occurs.
After some efforts, the walls became indestructible and all defensive facilities were in place, providing strong security for the base.
At the same time, Xiao Yi also sent people to reclaim wasteland and introduce water sources to prepare for large-scale agricultural production.
Under Xiao Yi's command, a team composed of experienced farmers and young and strong volunteers quickly assembled and headed towards the barren land.
Arriving at the wasteland, armed with hoes, shovels, and other tools, the workers enthusiastically began the reclamation work. They first cleared the ground of weeds and rocks. The weeds were tangled and the rocks varied in size, but no one flinched. Some vigorously cut the grass roots, while others struggled to move the rocks, clearing the wasteland bit by bit.
Next comes the plowing of the land. The heavy plowshare, pulled by strong oxen or machinery, digs deep into the ground, turning over layer after layer of fertile soil. Each stroke of the plow is accompanied by shouts and the shedding of sweat.
To bring in the water, a team dug a canal along a planned route. They dug up soil shovel by shovel and carried it away basket by basket. The canal gradually stretched, approaching the distant water source.
Others were busy setting up the irrigation system, laying pipes, installing sprinklers and valves, and meticulously designing every detail to ensure that water was evenly distributed to every field.
During the reclamation process, we encountered many difficulties. In some areas, the soil was too hard, making it difficult to cultivate; in some areas, the terrain was low and prone to waterlogging. However, we worked together to overcome them.
After a period of hard work, the originally barren land was reclaimed into neat farmlands, with winding canals and clear water flowing through them, fully preparing for the upcoming large-scale agricultural production.
In order to train more leaders, Xiao Yi issued a selection notice.
On this day, the base's bulletin board was crowded with people, who gathered around curiously. A striking notice was posted in the most conspicuous place, with strong handwriting on it. It was the selection content written by Xiao Yi himself.
At the outset of the notice, Xiao Yi expounded on the importance and urgency of selecting leaders for the base's future development. He wrote earnestly, "The base's growth requires more capable and responsible leaders to lead us in jointly addressing future challenges."
The selection criteria and requirements were then detailed, including extensive experience, exceptional intelligence, courageous decisiveness, strong teamwork, and a commitment to serving the base. Each criterion was clearly defined, giving everyone a clear understanding of the selection criteria.
The selection process and schedule are also detailed below the notice. From registration, preliminary review, assessment, to final confirmation, each step has a specific timeline and responsible personnel.
Xiao Yi also emphasized the principle of fairness and justice, promising that the entire selection process would be transparent and open to public scrutiny. He wrote: "This selection process will not consider background, but only ability and potential. As long as you have dreams and strength, the base will provide a stage for you."
People were whispering and discussing in front of the notice board. Some had excitement in their eyes, eager to try; others were lost in thought, considering whether they met the requirements. But regardless, this notice was like a stone thrown into a calm lake, causing ripples throughout the base, allowing everyone to feel Xiao Yi's foresight and earnest expectations for the future of the base.
People in the base signed up enthusiastically to show their talents and ambitions.
