Chapter 373: The Construction of the Wall of the Settlement
I heard Liu Jinlong say that in the future, their combat units will still have to live in collective dormitories, so that they can have the fastest response speed to deal with emergencies.
Chen Ran nodded and agreed: "Yes, in the last days, only in this way can our troops have truly strong combat effectiveness and better defend the settlement." But at the same time......"
Chen Ran continued: "We will not let the fighters in the team just pay and have no corresponding return. ”
Chen Ran announced: "In the future, the combat personnel in our team will definitely be treated the best in the team!" There will also be a corresponding leave system. ”
The crowd nodded.
Chen Shusheng then continued: "Next, I will introduce to you the functions and designs of other aspects of the buildings in our settlement. ”
He continued: "In our settlement, in the early stages, it was not possible to build a kitchen and a bathroom in every dormitory. Therefore, there will also be collective cafeterias and bathhouses. In addition, there will be a dining hall and a bathhouse in each of the two living areas. In this way, when the gates of the districts are closed, everyone will not have no place to eat, put and bathe. ”
"The construction of cattle, sheep, horses, chickens and ducks is relatively simple, just build a shed. However, in order to avoid the danger of these sheds being crushed by heavy snow in the future, they should also be built more firmly. ”
"The three warehouses are also relatively simple, just build the roof and the exterior wall. The walls don't need to be very thick either. But it's bigger. There are no warehouses, they are all 30 meters wide and 60 meters long. The height is 8 meters. It should also be more solid. ”
Chen Shusheng continued: "The administrative operations command center in the settlement is a place where everyone usually uses administrative offices, meetings, and commands operations. It covers an area of about 600 square meters and has a total of 3 floors. Together with the height of the watchtower at the top, it is a total of 15 meters. ”
"A big bell will be placed inside the lookout, and in case of emergency, we will ring the bell to remind everyone to take shelter."
"The location of the administrative operations command center is in the center of the initial settlement, connected to the isolation wooden wall of the four districts, so that the personnel on the observation deck can observe the situation in the entire settlement."
"Zombies attack, and when there is a fight, the gates of each district are closed. The warriors were able to access the outer walls of the colony through the passageways built on the wooden walls separating the districts. ”
Finally, Chen Shusheng also introduced the plan for the construction of the city wall of the settlement, he said: "Regarding the city wall of our settlement, in the initial stage, it may only be built with civil engineering for the time being. We will have to wait until we have collected enough reinforced concrete and enough time before we build a new concrete wall to replace the original one. ”
"But you don't have to be careful about the safety ......of the civil engineering wall," Chen Shusheng then smiled and said: "After winter, once the soil on the city wall freezes, it will be very hard. And my eldest brother is here, and his earth-based ability can also help us strengthen the earth wall, making it as strong as a stone wall! Even if an intelligent corpse attacks us with siege equipment, it should be able to resist it. ”
"Hmm!" After hearing this, everyone nodded again.
Regarding the earth-based ability, Chen Ran had already said that it was a powerful weapon for the defense of the settlement.
Soil-based abilities can easily turn ordinary soil into as hard as stone.
Not to mention if the walls were originally made of reinforced concrete.
And now, Chen Shuyuan's earth-based ability has also been greatly improved.
The short bridge they stayed on tonight was reinforced by Chen Shuyuan, so it was able to park so many of their vehicles.
Therefore, as long as he is there, after they go to the northeast, the civil and engineering walls built in the early days should not have a problem with defense.
At this time, Chen Shusheng said: "However, the construction of the city wall is a big project. In the early days, the length and width of our settlements would have reached about 200 meters, so the walls would have been at least 800 meters long. The height will be around 10 meters. Watchtowers will also be built around it. Therefore, for the time being, soil will not be attached to the city wall. It was built directly out of logs. ”
"This wall is a little thinner. However, at this time in the early stage, the river surface of the Nenshan River has not yet frozen, and we have a natural protective barrier, so it is enough to have such a city wall to protect the gathering place. The main thing is to prevent some beasts with viruses from running in. ”
Chen Shusheng continued: "Then when the second phase of construction begins, we will expand on the original city wall. Expand the extent of the walls to a boundary of 400 meters by 400 meters. A plot of land of about 160,000 square meters was enclosed to make room for population development in the later stages of the agglomeration. ”
"At the same time, the second phase of the construction of the city wall will also really start to use civil structures. We will build a wooden wall on the outer ring first, then a wooden wall on the inner side as well, and then fill in the middle and tamp it down. In this way, the original wooden city wall can be turned into a civil wall. ”
"The wooden wall on the inside of the civil wall will be slightly inclined outward, so that the bottom of the wall can be widened, which is conducive to the load-bearing of the wall. Once completed, the width of the civil wall will be about 4 meters at the bottom, 3 meters wide at the top, and the height will increase to 12 meters, which is equivalent to the height of a four-story building. ”
Chen Shusheng continued: "According to Xiao Ran, such a city wall is enough to protect the safety of our settlement in the short term. Even in the winter, there are large hordes of zombies that cross the river to attack our settlements. But it is not so easy to easily break through our civil wall! ”
"Yes!" Chen Ran couldn't help but add at this time: "It will take a certain amount of time for the zombie group to form a large-scale zombie army. Before facing a large zombie army of more than 50,000 people, this 12-meter-high civil engineering city wall was enough for the time being. Generally, only in the large zombie army of more than 50,000 people, there will be a large number of siege equipment. ”
Chen Shusheng continued: "At the same time, we will also start building the third phase of the reinforced concrete wall of the settlement, which is longer, taller and thicker, as soon as possible. At that time, the new city wall will enclose the entire Jiangxinzhou. It can be used as a wall to defend against zombies, and as a to prevent floods. ”
He finally said: "After all, the Nenshanjiang area also often floods. Without the protection of the dikes, the relatively low-lying areas of Jiangxinzhou would have been flooded. But with the protection of the reinforced concrete walls, we don't have to be afraid of floods anymore. After all, it is impossible for a flood to grow to a height of more than ten meters. But for such a large project to be completed, it is estimated that it will take two to three years at the earliest! ”
