【Chapter 280】 Activate!

In the eyes of the orcs, the crowd in the wasteland was indeed chaotic, as if they were laughing at them. But in fact, Qin Song personally formulated the process and steps of the excavation, and after two days of drills, it was basically on the right track and in an orderly manner.

In front of the minefield, the location of the bunkers was first demarcated, distributed in a polygonal shape, the spacing was set to 30-40 meters with reference to the optimal range of shotguns, and the angle of folding was about 120 degrees, which was able to effectively organize crossfire.

The bunkers are connected to each other through traffic trenches, with a depth of 3 meters, and the side walls are inclined, because they need to be buried underground, they adopt the wartime bullet shelter mode - that is, the herringbone skeleton is supported, and the logs and firewood are used to build a 'human' shape, supported by two wall steps, covered with thatch, and then laid with double-layer clay bricks, poured vomit cement with vomit sauce for waterproof reinforcement, and finally covered with soil to conceal.

In order to ensure the ventilation of the traffic trench and the necessary lighting, every 2-3 meters or so, grooves are made sideways, and vents and torch grooves are set up with red bricks, and shrubs and rocks are used as camouflage around the vents.

After three days of hard work by 400 people, the excavation of ten bunker foundation pits, traffic trench foundation grooves, and herringbone skeleton support was completed. Next is the most important process, the masonry process.

Not everyone has the skill of a mason, so the work finally fell to Veronica's father, Robles, who had a wealth of architectural experience, coupled with Qin Song's sketchy drawings and clay brick masonry methods, which was clear at a glance, and it was simply not difficult.

The improvised Blackstone Line construction team, hand-picked by Robles, totaled 120 people, all of whom were sturdy farmers with quick hands and feet.

These peasants who participated in the construction not only managed three meals a day, but also received a salary, each of whom had three coppers per day, and could buy grain, farm tools and daily necessities from the lord, which greatly increased their enthusiasm for work.

Working for the lord was in itself the obligation of the serfs, but Qin Song intended to do so, because after the training of the Blackstone Defense Line, these people were able to initially master the skills of masons and accumulate talents for the next construction of the territory.

At 10 o'clock in the afternoon, the red bricks pulled from the brick factory were stacked in batches on both sides of the bunker foundation pit and traffic trenches.

Due to the tight construction period, the sooner the construction is completed, the safer it is, and even the meal is solved on the spot. Three makeshift stoves, each topped with a large iron pot made by Alice herself, in which steaming wild vegetables and meat strips were simmered, and each person was given a share of fluffy baked barley cake that had been fermented.

The swaggering picnic almost made the orc leader Bagasa vomit blood angrily.

"Uh......h It smells so good. With all other production activities suspended, Marbury, a strong blacksmith, joined the construction team, and was now sitting on a rock, with barley bread in one hand and wild vegetable stew in the other.

"yes. Robles, who served as the foreman, had a ruddy complexion and full of energy, chewing on the fluffy baked wheat cake in his mouth, and couldn't help but sigh, "I'm really taking it now, and the black stone collar is the most peculiar place I've ever seen." Not only is Veronica's condition getting better all the time, everything here is so new and full of charm. ”

"For example, this baked wheat cake? The bakery in Waterdeep can't bake that texture. Marbury laughed, with the leaves in his teeth, "I really don't know which chef's whimsy, and this stew, with enough salt, tastes good." ”

Robles smiled, but his eyes fell on the clay bricks not far away, "Man, do you see those bricks? are they burned, can you believe it? They are made of clay, and although they are slightly inferior to stones, they are very light and have uniform specifications." Do you know what that means?"

"What?" Marbury asked curiously.

"Meaning they're used for much more than that. Robles's face was full of emotion, "This is an invention that can be called genius, yes, absolute genius." Do you know how many steps it takes for a stonemason to make a good strip of stone? They need to first select the right stone in the mountain, then use a chisel to make a row of small openings, insert a plug in it, and then take turns beating the stopper with a long-handled hammer until the stones are separated. The work was extremely physically demanding, and a skilled stonemason could not chisel many pieces in a day. ”

"But here, I've heard that they mix the clay with water, use molds to stretch out the bricks directly, and put them in the brick kiln. That's right, it's the brick kiln that I helped build, and by adding that kind of black stone that can burn, it only takes a day to fire thousands of these bricks. ”

"It's an extremely terrifying efficiency, if there are enough brick kilns. Thousands of bricks are coming out of the kiln every day, so I can guarantee that everyone in Blackstone will be able to live in a sheltered brick house. ”

"Even serfs are fine?"

"That's right, Sir Weimar told me himself. They are looking for ways to increase the production of bricks, and the serfs will not only get their own fields, but also have their own houses, real houses!"

They were the most despicable serfs, and even the status of livestock was higher than theirs. But here, it is subversive to be able to own your own fields and houses!

Marbury was moved, and hurriedly asked, "Robles, what about us?"

A smile appeared on Robles' lips, "Sir Weimar is in the process of forming the Blackstone Guild, and you will definitely be invited." We can also own a house, even a private workshop. ”

Marbury stopped eating, was silent for a while, and suddenly raised his head, "Man, I want to come to Blackstone Collar, probably the most correct decision in my life." If all this will happen, then only fools will leave here. ”

Perhaps, this is the confidence of them to pay double the salary. Robles' gaze farther into the Hurek Forest, "They have defeated thirty orcs without regular cavalry, and the terrible orc centurion." When the orcs are no longer a threat, then this is a promised land, a real promised land. ”

......

"In the forgotten corners of dreams. Nightmares, immortal by your will.

The Void Gate will open at a certain time.

Unleash that—Krem's loyal servant.

Answer my call!

Majestic Krem!

Immortal!

The same is true of eternity!"

The light chant of the summoning echoed in the cave. Elena and Luna held hands, facing the torch ring in front of them, and the bone pile in the center, their faces full of devotion.

Qin Song, who was sitting on the side, returned to his body, and began to heat the chrysanthemum fever again, inhaling the void chrysanthemum with a round mud sauce that was like a Xiang that had been cemented in the large intestine for countless years.

"Answer my call!

Majestic Krem!

Immortal!

The same is true of eternity!"

Above the ring of fire, shadows swirled, swirling like clouds until they formed a gloomy whirlpool. In the center of the whirlpool, black sinuous lightning, trembled out a changing trajectory, steaming and sucking the bone meal on the ground into the whirlpool.

With the last spell fell.

In the whirlpool, the No. 5 of the mud sauce fell in the center of the ring of fire.

Each summoning ritual requires the coordination of two witches, and at the same time, the divine power is depleted. After Alice's rotation and rest, in the morning, five vomit mud sauce were summoned.

Adhering to the principle of proximity, the five vomit mud sauce were all mobilized in the mountains immediately southwest of the Blackstone Defense Line, and each gnawed into a rock tunnel on the mountain wall.

"Ralph, are the cars ready?"

For the sake of secrecy, the soldiers were in charge of the transport department of the vomit cement, and they waited in front of the vomit mud in a caravan with the roof removed and the leak-proof guards added around it.

Vomit mud sauce No. 1 began to vomit into the car-

Vomit mud sauce No. 2 is on standby——

Muddy Sauce Three begins to devour the rocks—

No. 4 is in place at the designated position -

Muddy Sauce Five is on its way to its place—

After actual measurements, the loading capacity of a caravan two and a half meters long, one and a half meters wide, and half a meter of guardrail is probably less than two cubic meters. And the amount of vomit in one vomit can fill four wagons. It takes about three hours to eat again and recover.

That is to say, five vomiting mud sauce can spray up to about 40 times a day, with an output of 8 cubic meters each time, and can achieve a daily output of about 300 cubic meters of cement.

You must know that the volume of a common cement tanker is about 14 or 16 cubic meters, that is to say, five mud sauce, the amount of cement produced per day, nearly 20 tankers!

What kind of efficiency is this? A HZS60 mixing plant can mix 60 cubic meters of concrete per hour, working an average of 8 hours a day, and producing 480 cubic meters per day.

With three more mud sauces, the production capacity can be close to that of a small cement mixing plant, achieving an annual output of 120,000 cubic meters!

This kind of cement that does not need to be mixed is spit and ready to use, and the setting time is about two and a half hours.

Due to the tight construction schedule, Qin Song did not have time to conduct various experiments for the time being, such as whether it was possible to make real cement concrete by particle gradation and adding stone and sand aggregates.

"Sir Weimar, please tell Robles that this material can be used as a cementitious material instead of the previous clay plant ash, and that it is stronger. But it must be used within two hours, otherwise it will condense. ”

"I understand. Sir Weimar looked at the five rock-gnawing behemoths, especially the horrible breath when he vomited, and felt a thrilling feeling in his heart.

If he had changed the time and place, he would have thought that this was the legendary monster.

However, after Qin Song's explanation, this nightmare creature has been purified by the gods, not only will it not harm the living beings, but the mud swamp it vomits has a wonderful effect, which can solidify the stones together in a short period of time to form a high strength, and the use of red bricks has epoch-making significance for civil engineering and production and construction.

"Let's go, we must complete the Blackstone defense line before the orcs attack on a large scale!"
