After the battle, the farmland was in ruins. The once neatly arranged ridges of the fields were trampled to pieces, and crops were toppled and even uprooted, scattered across the ground. Agricultural facilities were severely damaged, with irrigation pipes ruptured and sprinkler heads twisted and bent. The walls of several warehouses used to store agricultural supplies collapsed, their contents scattered across the ground. The air was thick with the scent of gunpowder and dust, making one cough. However, Xiao Yi and his companions beamed with the joy of victory. This victory was hard-won, a price they had paid, but they had ultimately defended their homeland. Their hearts were filled with pride and relief, their exhausted bodies seemingly dispelled by the joy. Without a moment's rest, they immediately plunged into the reconstruction of the base. Xiao Yi quickly organized his companions, clearly dividing the work, and methodically carried out the various reconstruction tasks. Some cleared the battlefield debris and rubbish, meticulously carrying broken weapons, discarded equipment, and enemy corpses to designated locations for disposal to prevent further environmental pollution. Others focused on repairing damaged agricultural facilities. Skilled in their tools, they reconnected broken pipes, replaced damaged sprinkler heads, and debugged various equipment to ensure the irrigation system was restored to normal operation as quickly as possible. Still others, with the help of surrounding strongholds, began rebuilding collapsed warehouses and other buildings. People from surrounding strongholds lent a hand, bringing various building materials and tools. Together with Xiao Yi's companions, they worked tirelessly to carry lumber and bricks, erect framework, and build walls and plaster. Through their combined efforts, new warehouses and buildings gradually rose from the ground, each more sturdy and durable than before. During the reconstruction process, Xiao Yi fully absorbed the lessons learned from the battle and comprehensively upgraded the base's defenses. They set more traps and obstacles around the base, such as deep trenches and spiked wooden stakes, to prevent an easy enemy invasion. At the same time, they reinforced watchtowers and increased the number and frequency of patrols to ensure timely detection of potential dangers. Regarding farming, the companions carefully selected crop seeds more suited to the wasteland environment, replanned the planting areas, and implemented more scientific and rational planting methods. They understood that only by ensuring a bountiful harvest could they provide a solid material foundation for the survival and development of the base. Therefore, they diligently tilled the land, fertilized and watered it, sowing seeds of hope one by one, hoping they would take root, sprout, and thrive in this war-torn land. Xiao Yi knew that in this turbulent wasteland, danger could strike again at any moment. This mercenary attack was only a small warning; more challenges and difficulties awaited them. However, this battle strengthened their unity and confidence in facing future challenges. During the battle, everyone utilized their unique strengths, cooperating and supporting each other, and together they overcame the most difficult times. This spirit of unity gave Xiao Yi the confidence that no matter what enemies or difficulties they faced in the future, they could overcome them together. Gazing at the revitalized planting base, Xiao Yi's heart was filled with longing for the future. He envisioned a scene of prosperity: crops thriving, a lush landscape; people toiling in the fields, their faces beaming with joy; children playing and laughing on the clean, tidy streets, vibrant with life. He believed that with concerted efforts, they could rebuild a beautiful, civilized world on this wasteland. Despite scarce resources and a harsh environment in this wasteland, Xiao Yi and his companions never gave up their yearning and pursuit for a better life. With their own hands and wisdom, they diligently rebuilt their homeland, carrying on human civilization and hope. They knew the road ahead was long and arduous, but with faith and dreams in their hearts, they could forge a bright future for themselves on this desolate land. Over time, thanks to everyone's concerted efforts, the planting base grew increasingly prosperous. New buildings were scattered throughout the base, equipped with every necessary facility. Crops, carefully tended, thrived, yielding bountiful harvest after bountiful harvest. Xiao Yi and his companions used some of their harvest to meet the needs of the people at the base, while others were traded with neighboring settlements for scarce supplies and resources, further bolstering the base's development. In the process, they also continuously recruited survivors from the surrounding areas to join their ranks, strengthening their own forces. These new members brought diverse skills and experience, injecting new vitality into the base's development. Xiao Yi and his companions warmly welcomed them, patiently teaching them farming and survival skills, allowing them to quickly integrate into the community. At the same time, Xiao Yi organized various cultural and educational activities to improve people's quality of life. They established a simple school and library within the base, allowing children to receive education and knowledge, and allowing adults to enjoy reading and enrich their spiritual lives in their spare time. Through these efforts, they not only rebuilt their homeland physically, but also carried forward and promoted human civilization spiritually. In this turbulent wasteland, Xiao Yi and his companions acted like a beacon, illuminating the path forward. They have demonstrated through their actions that even in the most challenging circumstances, humanity can create a better life through unity, courage, and wisdom. Their stories have spread across this wasteland, inspiring more survivors to bravely face difficulties and pursue their dreams. In the future, Xiao Yi and his companions will continue their hard work, exploration, and innovation in this wasteland. They will continue to strengthen the construction and defense of the base, improving people's living standards and quality of life; they will actively communicate and cooperate with other survivor organizations to jointly respond to various challenges and threats; they will strive to inherit and promote human civilization and values, and contribute to rebuilding a better world.
