So, after only half a day, Hamid's base incorporated more than 5,000 people.

Two days later, Hamid's base had more than 8,000 people incorporating it, and the total number exceeded 10,000, and the entire base was suddenly overcrowded.

Hamid firmly implemented Ye Chen's instructions. Whether it is a small team of 10 people or a large team of 1,000 people, as long as it comes to surrender to him, the team must be broken up and handed over to his subordinates to lead.

Moreover, except for some of his well-known old comrades, almost all of the remaining people were temporarily disarmed by his soldiers.

There were 5,000 soldiers disarmed.

And all of these five thousand people were organized into the temporary engineering corps and continued to open up the mountain with the construction workers.

There was not enough automation equipment, so these people simply smashed it with hammers and used human-powered wheelbarrows to transport gravel out.

The reason why so many people were excavated together was that there were too many people. We had to quickly build a large number of backscene tunnels to ensure that these people had a safe residence.

When they thought of digging a defensive tunnel for themselves, these people were indeed more hardworking than anyone else. Even if they were disarmed, they didn't care at all. They just wanted to dig more tunnels as soon as possible to give themselves a place to stay.

Almost all the eight thousand people who came to join were weapons and equipment, but they didn't bring much food. On average, they could only last three or five days. Fortunately, Hamid himself had enough strategic reserves, and his food was enough for two or three thousand people to eat for two or three years. Even if it was ten thousand people, it would be fine to eat for more than a year.

Moreover, he also purchased a large amount of food from vendors from neighboring countries. This batch of food was coming from the north day and night through land transportation.

Ye Chen was relieved to hear that he had so many people.

But just as Hamid's troops expanded several times and carried out infrastructure construction, 50 million Dragon Palace soldiers detoured to northern Syria. Fifty kilometers north of Hamid's base, the land transportation between Hamid and the north was cut off.

Hundreds of trucks transporting grain to Hamid were sent in less than thirty. The rest were all stopped.

Immediately afterwards, Chen Zhonglei led 50 million Dragon Palace soldiers to cut off Hamid's land transportation from the south. Subsequently, another 5,000 Wanlong Palace soldiers seized several highlands around Hamid's base, and then began to build fortifications, which seemed to be about to surround Hamid.

It was too late when Hamid received the message.

The soldiers of Wanlong Palace have completed the arrangement of troops. If he breaks through the siege rashly, he will inevitably encounter a powerful attack.

When he reported this to Ye Chen, Ye Chen said calmly: "You don't have to worry about this matter for the time being. Their wage costs for mercenaries are very high. If 10,000 or 20,000 people besiege you in Syria, the military expenditure of a day may cost tens of millions of dollars. If it really takes a year, I believe they can't stand it at all. What's more, if they can't get it for a year, they will be even more shameful. If they continue to spend it there, they will definitely retreat at that time."

As he said that, Ye Chen instructed again: "Anyway, your current strategic reserves are enough for you to support for a year, so you don't have to worry about how they surround you. There are two most important things you have now. One is to continue to do your infrastructure and strengthen your fortifications, and the other is to be strong and you must not give them the opportunity to launch a beheading operation!"
