While the Niuma Squad followed Tris's footsteps towards Camp 101, which was located deep underground, the construction of the new settlement was also in full swing.

With the half-collapsed concrete piers hung on the wooden planks with the words "Dawn City" written on them, the construction plan for the second survivor settlement of the New Alliance officially began!

Long before the Battle of Songlinyu began, the logistics department of the new alliance, under the instruction of the administrator, had prepared a plan for the development of the new settlement.

A large number of construction aids had been sent to the warehouse in Qingshi County by railway in advance, and almost as soon as Chu Guang announced the victory of the war, these materials were loaded onto trucks, and before the sky was completely light, they drove to the front line from the rear.

These supplies included 2,000 steel axes, 1,600 shovels, and a large number of bucket trucks, three-wheeled and two-wheeled pallet trucks, and other human transportation.

Along with this batch of materials, there were more than 300 construction workers.

Many of these people are NPCs who participated in the construction of the outpost in the early days, and some of them are life professional players with relevant industry experience.

They have rich construction experience, and have been tested by practice, and have made great contributions to the construction of Dawning City.

Although clearing the wasteland is a chore, when the alliance needs them, they still show up here without hesitation.

Or because of loyalty.

Or a guide to the task......

……

The truck was parked at the entrance to the camp.

Before the car stopped, the knife left someone to jump out of the car, shouting loudly.

"Get out of the car, get out of the car, work brothers!"

"The expansion will be over in the evening, while you can still earn some points, everyone hurry up!"

"Ollie!" Everyone responded energetically, and the young players of the power department jumped out of the truck first and went to the truck transporting supplies.

Under the leadership of Brother Dao, they unloaded the supplies on the truck and stacked them in sorts in preparation for the distribution of tools for a while.

Although in reality, everyone is reluctant to sweep the ground, but in the game, one or two are all incarnated as Aryan supermen, and one person wants to be able to do the work of two cows.

In particular, I heard that there are also achievements to be unlocked in construction missions, and players who meet the conditions can even climb the city monument, and being remembered as the heroes of Dawn City and those players who have performed well on the battlefield are remembered, and the dry batteries of the power system are suddenly high.

Tired?

Inexistent.

This broken game will sweat, panting, and the arms will be stiff and even sluggish, but it will not feel "uncomfortable".

Excessive pain will be blocked, and fatigue will not be a problem as long as it does not reach the level of fainting.

Under the call of Brother Dao, a group of players are busy.

The NPCs next to them saw this scene, and they couldn't help but be in awe and inspired at the same time.

Even those "pampered" blue coats are so hard, what reason do they have to be lazy? Why are you embarrassed to touch the fish?

Thinking of this, everyone spontaneously rolled up.

A total of 50 trucks, with the concerted efforts of everyone, unloaded all the supplies in less than half an hour.

The truck continued in the direction of Qingshi County, ready to tow a second trip.

At the same time, on the other side of the construction site.

Ma Ban, who temporarily assumed the position of lord of Auroville, met with the captain of the reinforcement team next to the wreckage of the viaduct and explained to him the situation here.

“…… There were 5,731 registered inhabitants, and nearly 10,000 freed slaves would arrive one after another. ”

"It is imperative that we have adequate shelter for these people."

The captain of the aid team was named Rudy, a former captain of ten under Vanus, who was released early because of his good performance in the labor camp.

After regaining his freedom, the former junior officer of the Legion did not embark on the return journey, but chose to stay, fight for a greater cause and ideals, and began another life as a resident of the new Union.

Rudy: "What about the prisoners of war?" ”

Maban: "Still in the city." ”

There are more than 20,000 prisoners of war, and it will take time to digest these people, and in addition, they will have to organize the construction of prisoner of war camps, so I am afraid that they will not be needed in a short time.

After understanding the situation, Rudy stared at the map for a while and immediately said.

"I have a general idea of the situation here, the materials for the construction will arrive before noon, and what we need to do now is to clear a piece of the site as soon as possible. How many people can use it now? ”

Maban replied sternly.

"Except for the wounded, sick people, pregnant women and children under 12 years old...... We were able to mobilize about 4,000 people. ”

Rudy nodded.

"That's enough, I need them to gather here at once, and I'll arrange specific work for them."

"Leave it to me!"

Leaving these words, Ma Ban immediately found Wu Chengyi and others, and with the help of the original leadership of the resistance organization, he completed the mobilization of the survivors.

The crowd slowly gathered in the clearing next to the wreckage of the viaduct, including soldiers of the Third Corps, young men with bags on their backs, and even children with immature faces and rickety old men.

Almost all of them had malnourished dishes on their faces, but they were much better than they were a month ago. Although I can't talk about being full of energy, at least I can't see hesitation and confusion.

Looking at the black crowd in front of him, Rudy picked up the horn and said in a loud voice.

"Time is precious, I'll make a long story short, we need to prepare 1,000 emergency homes before dark!"

"I need you to lend me your strength!"

Hearing this, everyone looked at each other.

Preparing 1,000 homes before dark?

Is this guy serious?

Almost all the survivors were filled with suspicion about this whimsical idea, and whispered to each other.

Without explaining anything, Rudy immediately gave the task to everyone after a simple mobilization.

The 4,000 people were divided into more than 300 teams of varying numbers, led by more than 300 foremen, and each of them devoted themselves to the construction of the settlement.

With the concerted efforts of the crowd, the survivors of Dawn City quickly cleared the land around the trenches and transported the concrete wreckage and large pieces of garbage outside the camp using bucket trucks, tricycles, board trucks, and other means of transportation.

As the vacant land was cleared, aluminum plates and aluminum alloy brackets were dragged over by tricycles and board trucks.

Looking at the materials and tools piled up in the clearing, the thin man's face was full of confusion.

"What is this?"

His name is Liu Dali, and the Chewing Bone Tribe was a farmer before they came here.

When his home burned down and his wife and children were gone, he joined the guerrillas and is now a soldier in the Third Corps of the New Alliance.

Not only did he not understand what these things were for, but the other survivors standing next to him were the same, exchanging glances in confusion.

At this time, a foreman of the construction team walked in front of them and answered their puzzles.

"These are all building materials for building a house, they can be assembled and lived, and the tasks of our group are 4, I will teach you how to do it in a while, and you will be able to learn it soon."

"Building materials?" Liu Dali was stunned.

The fellow villager standing next to him was the same, and said puzzledly.

"Can this thing build a house?"

Even if you build a shack, it's not enough to have aluminum alloy plates.

Facing everyone's puzzled gaze, the foreman said with a slightly smug smile.

"This thing isn't just about building a house, it's very useful. Stop talking nonsense, hurry up and help. ”

As he spoke, he threw the gloves to the crowd and carefully advised, "Remember to put this on when you work, don't hurt yourself." ”

"There are four missions in our group, and everyone is working hard to complete it before 6 p.m.! Our captain said that if you can complete all the tasks before 6 o'clock, the whole group will be rewarded! ”

As soon as they heard that there was a reward, everyone's curiosity suddenly rose.

"What reward?"

"Crab cakes! One piece per person! ”

Meat!

As soon as they heard this reward, everyone was instantly excited, and without saying a word, they put on gloves and began to work under the arrangement of the foreman.

The same reward, if it is placed in Dawning City, I'm afraid few people will be tempted.

But this is the famine of Xizhou, and a piece of green wheat cake can be regarded as a delicacy.

When they heard that there was meat to eat, everyone's eyes were eager to glow with green light, and they only hated that their parents didn't have two more hands.

Two aluminum plates are erected on the ground, with a bracket erected in the middle, and the connection is fixed with screws and nuts.

Then came the 3rd and 4th blocks......

With the completion of the splicing of the aluminum plates, Liu Dali was soon surprised to find that a boxy box had unconsciously appeared in front of everyone.

The area of this "box" is not small, covering an area of 20 square meters, and the floor height is more than three meters.

The beds are bunk beds, with doors and windows, and there are 6 beds in a room, which is not crowded at all, and the space is even a bit wasteful.

Looking at the fruits of labor in front of him, Liu Dali's heart was suddenly touched.

Ever since his home was destroyed and he lost his loved ones, he has been living in a state of confusion, and one day is a day.

But now, looking at the house in front of him, a trace of emotion suddenly appeared in his heart that he hadn't had for a long time.

He didn't know how to describe the feeling, he didn't even know where it came from, but he could feel that it was real.

It's like......

A candle lit up in the darkness.

"Don't be stunned," the foreman patted him on the shoulder and said with a smile, "We still have three tasks left, so let's work hard to get another one before lunch begins!" ”

Hearing the foreman's voice, Liu Dali came back to his senses, put away the excitement in his heart, and nodded vigorously.

"Okay!"

It is not only Liu Dali's group that has completed the first set of tasks.

Almost all the construction teams on the entire construction site are working with full strength.

The first 300 prefabricated parts were assembled, and soon the second batch was trucked to the camp's stockpiling area.

As of 12 noon, there were nearly 500 container-style houses standing on the original barren land.

Although these houses are a little simpler, although the sparrows are small, they have all kinds of organs, and there is no problem at all to shelter from the wind and rain.

As for keeping warm, it's only the end of May.

With the hottest three months of the year coming up in the province of River Valley, it's too early to worry about it.

Looking at this spectacular scene in front of them, many people couldn't believe their eyes.

Especially Yang Duo, who used to be the director of the treasury of Hope Town, was not only surprised in his heart.

More of a shock!

Originally, in his understanding, even if it was an emergency shack, he had to go to the city to pick up some iron sheds, steel bars and concrete blocks. In three to five days, it is impossible to get 5,000 people to live under the eaves.

However, the construction plan of the new alliance completely subverted his cognition.

Housing prefabricated parts produced on the assembly line are trucked to the front line and assembled by workers on site.

Even ordinary people with no construction experience can complete the assembly of the entire house under the guidance of grassroots construction personnel.

The whole process takes less than three hours.

If you are proficient, even two hours is enough.

Fast is like copy-paste.

With such a huge infrastructure, industry, and mobilization capacity, it's no wonder they were able to win this war!

"These houses...... How much does it cost? Wu Chengyi, who was standing aside, couldn't help but ask in a low voice.

Maban pondered for a moment and gave an approximate figure.

"I don't know the specifics, but I've heard that the average cost is around 300 silver coins, and the external price is 500 silver coins...... Equivalent to 2.5 automatic rifles. ”

Hearing this, the surrounding people let out exclamatory sounds.

I heard that the average monthly income of the new alliance is about 400 silver coins, doesn't this mean that you can buy a set with a month's salary?

It's a bit too cheap.

Looking at everyone's expressions, Ma Ban's face couldn't help but have a touch of pride.

Although he joined the new league only a few months ago, that doesn't stop him from being proud of his new league's achievements.

"A room costs 300 silver coins, and 1,000 pieces cost 300,000...... Wouldn't it be too wasteful to live in a house of only 6 people? The expression on Yang Duo's face was slightly cramped.

Although everyone is now a family, after all, they have just joined this big family.

As soon as he came in, he spent so much money on others, which made him feel a little uneasy.

Seeing what he was thinking, Maban didn't explain anything, just smiled and said softly.

"This is mainly due to health concerns, and it is easy to cause infectious diseases due to excessive residential density. The manager personally explained to me that even during special periods, it is necessary to ensure that the per capita living area is more than 2 square meters, and that each dormitory cannot exceed 6 people. ”

"Not only that, but the lord also told me that emergency housing should only be used as a transition, not for long-term dependence. Within three months, we're going to have all the families in Dawnville, every family living in their own house! ”

Wu Chengyi and Yang Duo exchanged glances, and saw excitement in each other's eyes.

If it was before, when they were still living in the underground tunnels, Ma Ban said this to them, no one would have taken it to heart, only as if he was painting cakes.

And yet now......

Hardly anyone doubts that they can do it.

Not far away, in a makeshift shed, cauldrons were erected. The appetizing aroma wafted out of the pot, and almost everyone couldn't help but swallow.

Just when the construction teams were busy, the old and weak women and children who could not engage in heavy physical labor were not idle, and prepared lunch under the guidance of the logistics staff, and the children carrying lunch boxes and kettles shuttled around the construction site to deliver lunch to the hands of the construction teams.

Everything is in order.

By 6 p.m., the construction team had not only miraculously completed 1,000 emergency houses, but had even exceeded the task, including toilets and cisterns, which were originally planned to be built the next day.

The camp was bustling.

People gathered together and sat around a fire made of stones.

The firelight reflected the smiling faces, and people ate with bowls while chatting and bragging, or chatting about their future plans.

Today's dinner was extraordinarily sweet.

Especially the juicy crab cakes.

The survivors from Hope Town have never eaten such delicious food!

Seeing his brothers gobbling up, the foreman who led the team smiled and said with a braggadocio of cowhides.

"When you have the opportunity one day, you will go to Dawning City to have a look, and after you go there, you will know what heaven on earth is."

A survivor who was working hard looked up, and before he could swallow the food in his mouth, he interjected vaguely.

"I've heard that the crab cakes there are all-you-can-eat!"

The foreman laughed.

"Crab cakes? There's more to it than crab cakes! ”

Liu swallowed vigorously.

"For example?"

Looking at those pairs of longing and expectation, the vanity in the foreman's heart was greatly satisfied, and he continued slowly.

"For example, a bowl of ramen for 4 silver coins, a bowl of hot sauce fried rice for 3 silver coins, steamed buns for 2 silver coins, various barbecues skewered on wooden skewers, dishes fried in a large iron pot, and charcoal-grilled yokai steaks for a little more expensive......"

As he spoke, he scolded secretly, and said with a worried face, "Damn, don't say it, the old man I said was just full and hungry!" ”

Seeing that the boss didn't say anything, everyone suddenly became anxious.

"Don't."

"Let's keep talking."

"What the hell is that ramen?"

"And buns."

"It's too troublesome to explain, I say 10,000 words, it's better for you to take a look at it yourself."

Putting away his bowl, the foreman patted his trouser legs, got up from the ground, and gave his brothers a word of encouragement to the brothers sitting at the fire.

"Let's do our jobs."

"Dawn wasn't built in a day, and neither was Dawn City. What is there, there will be here sooner or later! ”

Not far away by the fire.

Sitting cross-legged under the knife on the ground, looking at the pop-up window that appeared on the VM screen, a happy smile finally appeared on his face, and he breathed a sigh of relief.

"That's it!"

[Mission: Complete 1000 Emergency Buildings (Completed)]

["Infrastructure Maniac" Achievement Challenge: Complete the mission before 6pm (completed)]

Although the task had been completed half an hour earlier, the acceptance took a little time.

This game is always very real in strange places.

“…… I heard that this time the prize pool fat batch, I hope to draw some good things. Sitting next to the person who was left under the knife, Makabazi said expectantly.

There was no flight mission for the past two days, and there was nothing to do on the farm, so he simply came to the front line to collect points.

"What's the jackpot?"

"It hasn't been announced yet, hasn't it been until the expansion film has been settled," put away the VM, Macaba suddenly thought of something, looked at the knife on the side and asked, "By the way, Brother Dao is also engaged in engineering in reality?" ”

I remember that this brother was the captain of the construction team a long time ago, and now it seems that he has unlocked the professional title of "Chief Architect of the New Alliance".

The knife left someone casually said: "Sort of." ”

Makabazi clenched his hands into fists with admiration.

"Big guy!"

The one who built the house is undoubtedly the big guy!

Someone under the knife couldn't cry and laugh and said: "Big guy is a hammer, I'm an idler in the unit, otherwise how can I have time to soak in the game every day." ”

Curious, Makabazi continued to ask, "But then again, you don't get tired of doing this in the game, don't you?" ”

The knife left people to think for a while, and said with a smile.

"Greasy...... I don't think so. To be reasonable, even if I do this in reality, it is impossible for me to design a city, right? And some brain holes that are not used in reality are unexpectedly quite marketable here, and I am quite happy with them anyway. ”

Makabazi admired it in his heart.

"Awesome! It's a big guy! The pattern is different! ”

The knife left someone coughed lightly.

"I've said I'm not a big guy anymore."

"The big guy is too modest!"

Makabazi glanced up at the sky, got up from the ground, patted the mud on his pants, sighed and said, "The animal of the company will go to work in a while, so let's go first." ”

The knife said with a smile.

"Go ahead, I'll go down in a while, I'll see you on the official website."

"See you on the official website!"

As he spoke, Makabazi glanced at Brother Dao enviously.

"Hey, I wish I were as idle as you."

Leave someone under the knife: "......"

……

The barracks next to Auroville.

Chu Guang, who was sitting in the barracks, was browsing the report sent by the logistics department through the VM.

The construction of Dawn City went smoothly, and the construction team completed 1,000 emergency houses in just one day.

The new alliance is highly electrified, and many of its tools rely on the grid.

Although a number of wood-burning trucks were seized from the marauders, the vast majority of the trucks of the new alliance were mainly self-produced "electric mules".

Although this kind of electric truck is easy to use, it cannot work off the grid for a long time.

There are also save points for players, which are also a big power guster. There are no generators on the front line, and electricity has to be supplied by trucks' batteries.

“…… If only the reactor could be repaired as soon as possible. ”

From the beginning to the end of the report of the logistics department, Chu Guang thought for a moment, reached out and picked up the headphones and put them on, and spoke.

"Xiaoqi."

Energetic voices came from the ears.

"I'm here, master."

Chu Guang: "Inform Luca for me and ask him to prepare five firewood generators to be sent here as soon as possible, requiring a power of more than 100KW." ”

Xiao Qi said energetically: "Received! Leave it to me! ”

End of communication.

Chu Guang was about to get up and go outside for something to eat.

At this moment, at the top of the VM screen, a pop-up window suddenly popped up with a communication request.

Seeing that the call was from Lu Bei, Chu Guang did not hesitate, immediately pressed the connect button, skipped the greetings and went straight to the point.

"How's it going over there? Have you seen the residents of Vault 101? ”
