Chapter 84: Encircle a wall and build a sentry tower

Chapter 84 Encircling a wall and building a watchtower

 After returning to the station, Ye Fan immediately returned to his temporary tent.

 He first checked his supplies.

 All the materials brought back by the new soldiers of the third company were sent to the recycling bin, and no one could see the mountains piled up outside.

Now those supplies are all turned into numbers on Ye Fan's red alert page.

 Opening the recycling bin to check, he found that the existing materials were enough to build a five-kilometer wall.

 There is especially a large amount of cement, a slightly insufficient amount of steel bars, and a medium amount of sand, gravel and bricks.

With the materials, building a wall is easy. One meter only costs 10 gold to build. Ye Fan immediately produced a five-thousand-meter wall.

"It is determined to build a five-kilometer wall. The materials will offset 90% of the construction cost. It will consume 50,000 gold. On average, one meter will be completed every 6 seconds. The commander can arrange the construction at any time."

Then Ye Fan saw the progress bar of the five-meter wall begin to rotate in circles.

 One meter in six seconds is still very fast, and it is ten meters in one minute.

 A few minutes later, Ye Fan walked out of the tent.

Behind him, engineer Luo Jiaxin and the others followed, telling Ye Fan where the inner wall should be built.

 The first thing is to accommodate the river into the base, so we must first build along the river bank.

Ye Fan suddenly asked Nana: "Nana, can the door of the base also be built through the system?"

"Yes, sir, each type of fence has a matching gate, which is divided into two types: land gate and water gate. It's just that the construction cost of the gate is ten times higher than that of the fence."

Ye Fan nodded. It doesn't matter if it is ten times higher. After all, the door only occupies a small part of the area.

 He began to build walls from the river bank inland.

 At the edge of the river beach, the place suitable for construction starts first, and the straight line extends for one hundred meters!

 With a sound, a huge wall was built!

 Five meters high and one hundred meters long, completed in an instant!

Ye Fan was stunned for a moment, sighing in his heart at the magic of the systematic architecture, and then he climbed up the wall to watch.

 There are steps to the top under the wall, but only from the inside.

Go up the steps and there is a 1.5 meter wide walkway above.

There are crenels in front of the walkway, which are about one meter. The main body of the five-meter-high wall is five meters high, but if you include the crenels, it is more than six meters.

Looking down from the crenel, the upright wall below is as smooth as a mirror!

 The cement has made the wall flat so that there are almost no bulges visible, and there is no place for climbing.

Only when it reaches a height of five meters, the wall has a bulge, which only protrudes outward by half a meter and is circular, connecting the wall and the crenel.

 The five-meter-high wall below is almost impossible to climb. Even if you climb up, this round protrusion is a big obstacle that prevents you from continuing to climb up.

Even if you could jump over this bulge and climb up, it would definitely be quite difficult, and you would immediately become a target for the defending soldiers behind the crenel.

Ye Fan stamped his feet hard, feeling a little pain in his feet. The strength of this wall was beyond imagination.

“The wall is still not particularly wide enough. A 1.5-meter wall is not enough.”

“Sir, you get what you pay for. If you build a ten-meter wall, the top wall will be four meters wide, and there will be a curved driveway to the top, so transport vehicles can easily run on it.”

 Ye Fan nodded. With the ordinary building materials and the cost of 10 gold per meter, it was already worth the money to build such a wall. He couldn't be too greedy.

 At least in Ye Fan's opinion, it would be impossible for ordinary zombies or even mutated zombies to climb up this wall unless the corpses below were piled too high.

As for the crawlers we met today, there seems to be hope, but it won’t be particularly easy.

 There are also defensive warriors. Unless a large group of crawlers rush up together, they will die if they come.

 When the wall is enclosed, he will set up a sentry tower and a heavy machine gun, and his defense line will be basically impregnable.

Walking on the wall, the cool breeze blew the fragrance of the soil from the fields, and Ye Fan couldn't help but feel a little carried away.

He suddenly became very interested and pointed to the field below: "Look, this is what I do for you..."

 Looking back, what I saw was not Zhuge Yunxue's pretty face, but Shen Ruihui's tense face.

“Commander-in-Chief, what did you say?” Shen Ruihui asked excitedly.

"The work arranged for you, you will take the people to clear this area tomorrow. The main fence on this floor is completed, and the partition walls of the internal buildings will also be started."

"clear!"

 Shen Ruihui was finally assigned a leading task and was very motivated.

 After completing the 100-meter fence, Ye Fan began to place the walls one by one.

 The location of the fence is a key area. Stones, trees and other debris have already been cleared away, and he placed them quickly.

The engineer told Ye Fan from the side that there was a door that needed to be left, and he could just skip it when he got there.

 Ye Fan’s plan for the inner base is to set aside ten gates.

There are eight land gates and two water gates, which are set up from the place where the river enters the city and where it leaves the city.

  The inner base is a long strip with a front width of four kilometers and a side width of only one kilometer.

There are three land gates on the front, a water gate of Qixing River, and an iron gate of the material recycling station.

 There is a land gate on each side.

There are two land gates and a water gate at the back.

Each gate of the Land Gate is 20 meters wide, the main gate on the front is 30 meters wide, and the Water Gate is 50 meters wide.

However, the construction materials for the door have not yet been obtained, which requires a large amount of steel.

Let’s encircle the fence first. After placing the five-kilometer fence, most of Ye Fan’s inner wall has come out.

There are still more than four thousand meters of wall left. It is estimated that the materials will be ready tomorrow, and then there will be ten gates.

  After placing the fence, it was almost dawn, and Ye Fan was still not sleepy, so Ye Fan started placing the guard tower again.

The cost of building a sentry tower is slightly more expensive. After all, there are not many basic materials required in the sentry tower. The most expensive ones are the heavy machine guns, searchlights, and heavy machine gun warriors inside.

 Corresponding to the five-meter wall, there is a seven-meter sentry tower with a main body height of 5.5 meters and a 1.5-meter foundation.

 The construction cost is 1,800 gold. If there are three army soldiers guarding it, the cost is 2,400 gold.

Three people, one controls the machine gun, one controls the searchlight, and the third takes turns.

 Ye Fan took a look at the materials and there were still some. If reinforced concrete and other materials were added, the construction cost could be reduced to 2,000 gold.

 Overall, it’s not bad. After all, a three-man heavy machine gun team costs this price.

The current materials are enough to build four sentry buildings, and Ye Fan immediately produces them.

Ye Fan even fell asleep during the production of the sentry tower, and got up again when the construction was completed.

 The four watchtowers were placed at the four corners.

 The seven-meter guard tower was set up, and the soldiers inside saluted Ye Fan.

These soldiers were also included in the staff of Ye Fan's battalion, and twelve more soldiers were added out of thin air.

Of course, a ten-kilometer wall and four guard towers are not enough. Ye Fan has to wait for today's supplies to arrive before he can continue to add more.

 It was already early morning after the construction of the sentry tower was completed.

Ye Fan was eating the buns steamed by the cooking team in the morning while walking on the wall.

Now the fence on the left side of the front is almost complete, only the back and right fences are not under construction.

  It can be said that the general framework of the inner layer of the base has been developed.

 The morning sun shines down, giving the wall a golden color, which makes it look somewhat spectacular.

Teams of soldiers got up in the morning, some were patrolling with military dogs, and some had breakfast and were ready to set off again to search for supplies.

The army soldiers in the sentry tower faithfully perform their duties. Those who can become sentries have very good eyesight. They are equipped with telescopes, night vision devices, and high-power searchlights. They can have an unobstructed view within several kilometers of the surrounding area.

Anyone who dares to approach rashly will be shot mercilessly by the sentry.

 The four square kilometers outside the inner layer is the area that Ye Fan planned to leave to the survivors.

This area is larger, about ten square kilometers. It was originally a large wasteland with a lot of rocks and weeds.

However, Ye Fan didn't plan to let the soldiers clean up this area, leaving it to the survivors to do it themselves.

 If you want to live a good life, you must work.

He planned to wait until today to complete the wall and blast out the troops, then go to the mountains to find the location of the gold mine and prepare for the construction of the mine.

 Just as I opened the soldier page and prepared to attack, the intercom rang.

 Answered the call, it was Xu Haoran calling.

“Sir, the base vehicle is expected to be completed tomorrow, please give instructions, sir!”
