Chapter 139: Base Construction

The new house that he had just moved into, but Fang Hao couldn't bear it, and he didn't even live for a night, so he returned to the apocalyptic base.

At about ten o'clock in the morning, everyone who was practicing marksmanship saw Fang Hao appear at the exit of the base.

After Fang Hao greeted a few people, he came to the city gate and put the two Humvees on the road outside the city gate.

"Look! Look, those are two cars? ”

"The new car that Brother Hao brought back, go and take a look!"

"Wow, we've got a car to drive!"

Cars are everywhere here, but unfortunately they couldn't be driven many years ago.

A group of people, large and small, all stopped training and flocked to the city gates.

Fang Hao got into the Humvee, started the engine, and tried to drive a short distance.

Although he didn't have a driver's license, it didn't mean he couldn't drive, and after a few minutes of fumbling around, he understood how to operate.

The Hummer H1 has a total of three levers, the left one is the handbrake, the middle one is the transfer case, and the rightmost one is the gear lever.

Needless to say, the handbrake is only available in four-wheel drive, and it can output power to the rear wheels, or the front and rear four-wheels.

Although this is only a second-hand car, whether it is inside or outside the car, it looks brand new, this is because it is relatively well maintained, and the second is that the car has not been driven much in the first place. After the original owner bought it back, because this is a military model, there are many restrictions, and it is not used on the road, but only as a collectible at home for forced use.

"Brother Hao, this car is so magnificent!" Hu Zihua circled around the car and sighed.

Zitong also said: "Brother Hao, hurry up and teach me, how to drive this car?" ”

Fang Hao briefly explained the operation method to them, and then threw the two cars to them and let them familiarize themselves with the operation.

The road next to the base is empty, and no matter how you drive it, nothing will happen.

"Brother Hao, don't worry, I promise that in two days, I will be an old driver!" Hu Zihua excitedly sat in the driver's seat.

Chen Zheng also moved fast enough to grab the driver's seat of the second car, but when he saw Zitong standing next to the car door, he obediently gave up his seat to Zitong: "Sister Zitong, you come first, I will occupy a seat for you." ”

Ye Xiaomin, Tang Dandan and others also rushed up, even if they couldn't grab the driver's seat, they could learn how others could operate while sitting in the car.

For the next few days, they were tasked with learning how to drive a car, and the Humvee was so wide and long that it would be fine for a dozen people in two cars if it wasn't loaded.

For the first time today, Fang Hao did not go to mining, but picked up the most basic work of picking up trees again.

It takes a lot of wood to make the ground thorns, so he plans to clean all the trees around the base and be a pioneer in destroying the ecological environment.

Cutting down all the trees around the base also benefits the view around the base, and the large woods seriously affect the line of sight when shooting, and after the trees are cleared, the enemy has a lot less cover to hide.

Fang Hao held a steel fire axe in his hand and cut down all the way, leaving no tall trees and low shrubs.

Half a day later, the base immediately became bare within three hundred meters, and not even a single tree stump could be seen.

A whole day passed, and all the trees within five hundred meters of the base were gone.

While cutting down trees, Fang Hao made stakes and ground thorns, and at the end of the day, in addition to a large amount of wood, there were more than twenty sets of spikes and ground thorns in his inventory.

At night, Fang Hao began to lay stakes and ground spikes along the outside of the city wall, which did not stick to the city wall, but reserved space for digging trenches.

The outermost layer is an upgradable spike, the second layer is a wooden spur, then a spike, and then a spur, for a total width of eight meters, with four layers of spikes and four spurs.

Wooden floor spikes are consumables, and most of them will be lost after a big battle, but there is very little wood needed to make them, so it is not distressing.

The wooden stakes can be continuously upgraded until the surface is completely covered with a layer of iron sheets, which is very strong and difficult to destroy by zombies, but it also consumes a lot of pig iron when repairing.

Both have their advantages and disadvantages, one is cheap and not durable, and the other is sturdy but more expensive.

After half a night's work, he only laid a layer of spikes upgraded to the highest grade and a layer of wooden spikes, which would have taken several days to complete.

The next day, Fang Hao and Zitong rode on their motorcycles and continued to the gold mine to mine gold, and the copper and lead harvested during the mining were put into the furnace every night for several days, processed into warheads and shells, and stored for later use.

In the next few days, Fang Hao's daily work was boring and monotonous, mining during the day, laying ground thorns at night, and cutting down trees when there was not enough wood.

After the eight-layer stakes and ground thorns were laid, Fang Hao began to dig the trench again at night.

The trench is four meters wide and five meters deep, and the bottom layer is all laid with sharp piles.

There was too much wood needed to make and upgrade the spikes, and Fang Hao cut down all the trees within a kilometer around the base.

In the meantime, he went back and rented a warehouse, which was not too far from the new house, and the space was large enough that he didn't have to worry about storing materials for a short time.

With the warehouse, Fang Hao threw off his arms and bought a large amount of fertilizer, which is used to refine potassium nitrate for making gunpowder, and of course, coal, another raw material for making gunpowder, is also indispensable, both of which are very cheap.

In addition, he bought 20 barrels of diesel fuel totaling 3,600 hectoliters, which is indispensable for both power generation and car consumption.

And this large pile of materials, after being brought into the base, is not even enough for two small storage boxes.

Even so, Fang Hao still built a special storage room in the base, and he transferred most of the storage boxes in the workshop to the storage room, leaving only a few storage boxes for materials in the workshop, which can be easily taken when making items.

After all the trenches were dug and all the sharp piles were laid in the ditch, Fang Hao laid two more layers of sharp piles on the inside of the trench, close to the root of the city wall, and upgraded them to the highest level.

In the next step, the main construction direction is the city.

The construction of houses in the city is also a big project, and there are two better options for the materials of the house, one is to upgrade the steel frame to a concrete structure, and if necessary, it can also be upgraded to a forged steel structure, so that almost every house is the strongest fortress in history.

Of course, he could also build a house made of stone, which would have saved a lot of wood and steel, but the stone walls were not as strong as concrete, let alone forged steel.

Building a house is easy for Fang Hao, but every house has to have furniture and lay water pipes and circuits, which is a lot of work.

On this day, Fang Hao was planning the houses and roads in the city with Tang Dandan in the room, drawing interior design drawings of various houses, and Zitong suddenly broke in excitedly.

"Brother Hao, Brother Hao, I may be about to advance!"
