Section 272 Chain Bridges
The 8th and 9th two 500-man squadrons attacked in a northerly direction, advancing all the way to the bottom of the volcano in the center of the island. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
When Chen Yan explored the island before, he used a drone to take aerial images of the jungle, and drew a map of the jungle, and each detachment advancing in 4 directions carried mobile phones, tablets, walkie-talkies and other communication equipment, and the tablet transmitted a map of the jungle, Chen Yan built a signal base station in the Xingxingxia Valley, so that the 4 detachments could report the situation at any time, short distance, no base station, no network support, walkie-talkie can talk.
When everything was ready, 4 detachments began to attack.
Chen Yan led the detachment advancing southward, with more than 1,000 people in two teams of 500 people.
The detachment's goal is to clear and expel predatory beasts that pose a threat to humans in the target area.
The second is to find the human settlements living in the jungle and rescue the humans who have become slaves of the ape-people.
Third, establish a forward post on the bank side of the Canglan River.
Fourth, explore the jungle area in search of minerals and natural resources.
ā¦ā¦
Chen Yan took the lead in the front, an area from the Xingxing Gorge Valley to the Nu River was very safe, this area was the activity range of the Blue Star Country, and the predatory beasts in the area that posed a threat to humans were repeatedly cleaned up by the human army.
After the Nu River, it is the area of the jungle.
The straight-line distance from the Xingxingxia Valley to the Nu River is about 270 kilometers, and the straight-line distance from the Xingxingxia Valley to the Canglan River is about 850 kilometers, that is to say, the human legion has expanded the area of human activities to more than 100,000 square kilometers for the third time.
The ammunition consumed by the human legion, the supply materials are transported by the tamed camel dragon, and there are mobile phones, tablets, navigation equipment, and compasses to guide the way in the jungle, so this time, the human legion can advance deeper into the jungle without worrying about the consumption of supplies and getting lost in the jungle.
ā¦..
The advance detachment led by Chen Yan arrived on the banks of the Nu River two days later at the third sunrise.
The reason why the Nu River is called the Nu River can be understood as the angry river, the river is turbulent and rapid, mighty, and there are a large number of serrated crocodiles, broadmouth fish, beak-billed dragons and other cruel and ferocious predators living in the Nu River.
It is not feasible for human legions to go directly down the river or cross the river on rafts, nor can they build pontoons or bridges on the river, unless there are concrete reinforcements to build a strong bridge, otherwise it is easy for the behemoths of the river such as sawtooth crocodiles and beak-billed dragons to destroy a pontoon bridge or a simple wooden bridge.
Although the name of the beak-billed dragon does not look terrible at all, however, this behemoth is the overlord of the river, there is no one, the body is huge, the temperament is fierce and brutal, more than 30 meters long, more than 40 tons of weight, the body size is three times that of the Tyrannosaurus rex on the earth, this kind of overlord in the water even the thunderstorm dragon crossing the river dares to sneak attack, the beak-billed dragon wants to destroy the bridge in the water A collision, the bridge collapsed.
The human legion has long explored the terrain along the riverbank, and Chen Yan also used drones to take aerial photos of the terrain along the Nu River.
Standing on the bank of the river, Chen Yan drew a line on the slab with his fingers, about 5 kilometers upstream, the two sides of the Nu River are two steep cliffs, the distance between the two banks is narrow, the water flows rapidly, and it is difficult for boats to travel, through the images taken by aerial photography, Chen Yan estimated that the narrowest part of the river is about 27 meters, which is not wide.
Chen Yan led the detachment along the Nu River.
In about one and a half hours, we arrived at a cliff wall, which was about 100 meters away from the river below, and the river below made a rumbling sound and the water flowed rapidly.
Chen Yan looked at the sky.
The third 'sun' is about to go down, so I will rest on the cliff wall today, be safe, and it will not be safe to cross the river.
Chen Yan ordered to camp on the spot.
Everyone unloaded tents, sleeping bags, pots, dried meat, and grain from the camel dragon.
Each performs its own duties and goes deep into the bone marrow of everyone in the Blue Star Country.
Some people camped and set up tents, and the humidity in the jungle was heavy at night, infested with poisonous snakes and poisonous insects.
Someone is responsible for alerting the hazard.
Someone is responsible for burying the pot and cooking.
ā¦ā¦
Eat very simple at night, a big bowl of meat and three steamed buns per person.
There is never a shortage of meat food in the Blue Star Country, there are a lot of fish in the river, there are a lot of giant beasts in the jungle, and one earthquake dragon is enough for more than 50,000 people in the Blue Star Country to eat for a week.
Humans salted large quantities of meat and stored it.
During the long winter season last year, tens of thousands of people ate meat with open stomachs, and when it was the growing season, there was still surplus meat stored in the warehouse, but it was grain, and it was only two-thirds of the time before it was eaten.
The people of Lanxing never worry about not having enough to eat, and they can only have cats in a warm and comfortable home in the winter season.
The Blue Star Nation unexpectedly broke out with a baby boom.
In the year and a half since Chen Yan left, more than 10,000 babies were born in the Blue Star Kingdom.
ā¦..
At night, the warriors fell asleep to the roar of the beast from across the river.
Tomorrow we will cross the Raging River and enter the jungle where behemoths are infested.
The next day, Chen Yan got up early in the morning, and Chen Yan used a crystal steel sword to cut out two grooves about 6 meters apart from a protruding boulder, and two grooves with a distance of about 4 meters between the top and bottom.
Chen Yan took out 4 steel chains, and the steel chains were as thick as 2 fingers.
The four steel chains were firmly tied to the four slots, and then, Chen Yan threw the steel chains to the other side of the river with all his might.
Chen Yan climbed down the cliff and swam to the other side of the river, where the other end of the same four steel chains was firmly tied to the trough.
It was made into a chain bridge structure.
Chen Yan asked people to go to the wood.
Then, Chen Yan took out a thin steel chain and wound a thin iron chain in the shape of an upper frame (åµ) every 40 to half meters.
It wasn't until the second 'sun' came out that Chen Yan finished wrapping hundreds of thin iron chains around the chain bridge.
The warriors also cut down enough wood.
Chen Yan used a crystal steel sword to cut the wood into planks, spread it on the iron chain bridge, and connected it with iron nails.
A sturdy chain bridge was built.
First of all, most of the soldiers of the detachment walked smoothly across the chain bridge, and then some of the soldiers sat on the camel dragon and drove the camel dragon to sway across the chain bridge.
The chain bridge is very stable.
The detachment that crossed the Nu River was dispersed by Chen Yan into 10 hundred-man teams, and a hundred-man team was distributed every about 10 kilometers.
Each team of centurions has several drones that explore the surrounding jungle through drones, clear or drive predators out of the jungle that pose a threat to humans, and find human settlements living in the jungle,.....ć
