In the expansive wilderness, there sat a fortress that was easy to defend but hard to assault.
Tunnels stretching 15.7 kilometers, concrete shelters, and trenches were interconnected, with semispherical rotating armored gun towers, anti-aircraft artillery positions, anti-tank gun positions, and heavy machine gun emplacements all readily available.
This was the largest military base of the Army at Oasis No. 2, known as Horn Fortress, constructed by the former commander of the Legion stationed in Luo Xia Province, General Kras.
It boasted the capacity to garrison an army of a million!
To meet the massive material needs of this fortress, General Kras not only arranged for a water channel to be built from the nearby riverbank to the fortress but also constructed spacious six-lane highways around it.
Supplies headed to Horn Fortress could travel by waterway, road, or even be airlifted by plane or airship.
