Ren Xiaosu asked the old man, "What's the stronghold closest to here?"

"That would be Stronghold 144," the old man replied truthfully. "It's about 60 kilometers to the west."

Ren Xiaosu looked at Zhang Xiaoman. "So can you confirm our location now?"

"Yes." Zhang Xiaoman nodded. "Stronghold 144 is the Zong Consortium's granary, as 70% of the farming settlements are located near it. You could say it's a stronghold that was specially built for handling food stores, just like what Stronghold 114 is to the Qing Consortium."

"Oh, I see." Ren Xiaosu nodded and said, "Then let's start by attacking the areas around Stronghold 144 first."
