Chapter 445: Fortifications
"From your description, this guy seems to be a muscular, simple-minded guy?" Qi Lin said.
"No, Lei Mufeng is not as stupid as you think...... His two deaths were all caused by being trapped by someone, although I don't know who was secretly targeting him, but his eldest brother and second brother are very suspicious, and of course, his fourth brother. ”
"I see...... It seems that the Lei family is even more chaotic than your Cheng family. ”
Regarding Qi Lin's complaints, Cheng Yanqiu could only smile bitterly.
A family like the Lei family, both in scale and strength, has far surpassed those feudal imperial families in ancient times, and the struggle for inheritance within the royal family is still bloody and cruel, not to mention the Lei family.
"But during this time, Lei Mufeng himself is estimated to be very busy, otherwise, you would have been able to see him in the Hellens power station, it is estimated that even if he wants to trouble you, it will have to wait for the Hellens Defense Line project to enter the acceptance stage, taking advantage of the current time, why don't I take you to see the defense area we need to be responsible for - after all, the upcoming Black Tide is our great enemy."
"Hmm." Qi Lin nodded, as a fifth-level evolutionary, in the face of absolute strength, the little tricks of assassination and assassination are useless, and Lei Mufeng himself is only a fourth-level evolutionary, and the gap between the fourth-level and the fifth-level, Qi Lin himself knows best-if he wants to destroy Qi Lin at once, unless he uses a powerful weapon like the fat man's nuclear bomb, so as long as Qi Lin stays in the Hellens Line, he is safe.
……
……
The defense area assigned by the Cheng consortium is located on the northeast side of the town of Herens, this area is flat, only two kilometers away from the city wall, and if the city wall is breached from the front by Kuroshio, it will become the forefront of the entire defense line.
On this plain, Cheng Yanqiu did not choose to continue to build tall and thick city walls, but built bunkers one after another, and these bunkers were connected together and echoed each other, just like a formation called "fish scale array" in the ancient army.
If a wall stands in front of Kuroshio, Kuroshio will directly fill the wall with corpses, and the parasites behind will step on the corpses of the parasites in front of them and rush to the top of the wall - however, if Kuroshio is facing such a bunch of bunkers, they will not fight with the solid bunkers in shape, but will rush through the gaps reserved between the bunkers and the bunkers.
In this way, the soldiers guarding the inside of the bunker could attack Kuroshio from multiple directions, completely turning the entire position into an extremely efficient meat grinder.
And under these bunkers, all are reserved for retreat passages, which are connected to the underground bunkers - the transportation of ammunition, medicines, daily supplies, and even the reinforcements of soldiers can be completed from the underground passages, and if the bunkers in the front row are seriously damaged, the soldiers in the bunkers can also withdraw from the underground passage to the rear bunkers or bunkers, and explosives and detonating devices are set up at the connection points of each passage, as long as the accurate password is entered, explosives can be detonated, Completely block the access to the abandoned bunker.
At the rear of the bunker group, there is a man-made high ground, this high ground is more than 50 meters deep, the horizontal length reaches 300 meters, the height is 1.5 meters, it is completely built up by the frame structure and the way of digging and tamping, the front of the high ground is a steep slope of more than 60 degrees, and below the steep slope, there is a circle of trenches that reach a depth of three meters.
This is the last barrier in front of Cheng Yanqiu's headquarters, and it is also the position where Cheng Yanqiu's artillery battalion is located.
In this position, the projectile howitzer could hit directly under the corner of the inner side of the forward wall, and the direct-fire cannon could cover the fire fifty meters to a thousand meters in front of the pillbox group.
As for the assault armored battalion and tank troops, they are used to defend Cheng Yanqiu's headquarters, and they can also be used as mobile units and reserves to fight when necessary.
The defense area of the entire Cheng consortium is 500 meters wide and 3.5 kilometers deep, of which the first kilometer is a minefield, and the middle kilometer is a group of pillboxes and artificial heights.
Adjacent to the Cheng consortium is a defense area coordinated by four smaller small consortia, they saw that Cheng Yanqiu adopted the defensive means of bunker clusters, and also did the same, building a large number of bunkers at the front end of the defense area, but the strength of these small consortia is relatively weak, there is not enough engineering power armor, can not hollow out all the bottom of the bunker group, and cannot build a high ground on the flat ground.
In this way, if they want to send supplies to the bunkers, they must send people to send them over from the ground, and if the Kuroshio advances here, the logistics of the front bunkers will be interrupted instantly, and the maximum amount of materials that can be stored in the bunkers will only take a day and night, and the soldiers in the bunkers will be in a situation where they are running out of ammunition and food.
"Will the defenses of the border defense zone be too weak? If they are defeated first, our forward position will be an isolated island, with only the existing firepower, it will be enough to deal with the Kuroshio in the front, if you add the side......" Qi Lin stood on the artificial high ground, looking down at the bunker cluster that had been built to the end stage, and directly pointed out the problem to the point.
"This is indeed a problem, but the construction of this defense area is already the limit of what we can do, and I gave my opinion on this when the defense area was first allocated, but it was ignored by the people above."
"The amount of water in the barrel depends not on the longest plank, but on the shortest one, and in this case, we are the longer one, but the shortest plank is next to us—even if we could double the length, there would be no way to stop the water from leaking out of the gap. The people above should not fail to understand this truth. Qi Lin looked at the construction site in the defense area next door, those small consortia, and even the bunker cluster on the surface, had just finished building about a third of it.
"The above will not not understand, but they have pinned more hopes on the city wall, in their plan, it is necessary to stop the Kuroshio under the city wall, if the city wall is breached, no matter how tight the defense area behind is, the fall of the entire Hellens defense line is only a matter of time."
