Chapter 691: Dealing with the Third Outer City and the Western Alliance(1/4)

[Large chapter, please subscribe and vote]

Half a month later.

Go eastward across the Yangtze River.

As time goes by, the flood gradually recedes.

Cities on both sides of the river.

The flooded city presents a desolate and desolate picture.

When the flood gradually receded, revealing the dilapidated city, the breath of humanity seemed to have disappeared in the ruins.

The building's exterior walls were cracked, leaving traces of water and mud on the walls.

Windows were broken, glass shards were scattered on the ground, and the once busy streets turned into silent ruins. Telegraph poles tilted and fell, cables were tangled, no electricity flowed, and the city fell into darkness at night.

The streets were filled with silt and debris, and cars were shattered by the floods, showing twisted and deformed shapes.

There were no pedestrians on the empty streets, no noise of vehicles, only the sound of wind blowing through dilapidated buildings.

There is an atmosphere of loneliness and helplessness permeating the desolate scene, and the city seems to be abandoned and lifeless.

Vegetation was also damaged by the floods. Trees collapsed and withered, flower beds and parks were submerged, leaving only the remaining tree trunks and grass, giving people a withered and dead feeling.

The mud on the ground covered everything, like a veil of death.

Thick and turbid, it flooded streets and building foundations, giving the entire city an air of desolation and squalor.

Every step you take in the mud makes a sucking sound, which makes you feel heavy and depressing.

In this ruins covered by silt, zombies lurk.

They hide in dilapidated buildings, abandoned vehicles and mud puddles, waiting for their prey to appear.

Their bodies are wrapped in mud, as if they are integrated with the environment and are difficult to detect.

Some were immobilized by the silt, as if trapped in a mire of death, while others crawled hard, trying to grab hold of anything that came close.

This is a terrifying and dangerous scene, with zombies and silt intertwined together, forming part of this ruins.

After a long time, suddenly on the top floor of a landmark high-rise building that was very famous before the end of the world, a figure flashed past.

In harsh environments, humans can still survive.

Big camphor tree base.

Inner city villa hall.

Li Yu, Li Tie, uncle, second uncle, third uncle, Ding Jiu, Lao Lu and others are all here.

The weekly meeting is held today.

In the hall, the core forces of the base gathered together to discuss the next development plan of the base.

The second uncle was the first to speak: "Xiaoyu, now the non-staff and cooperative staff in the outer city want to leave the base. They want to go out to search for supplies as soon as possible and perform tasks to offset the food owed these days."

Li Yu thought for a while and said: "Okay, after today's meeting, we can open the door and let them out. In addition, we discussed the construction of the third outer city half a year ago. We can talk about it today."

As the number of people in inner and outer cities increases, although the current planting area can provide a stable supply of food, if we want to feed more people, we must add new planting area."

Li Hang said: "Brother, He Bing and I have done some research and came up with a fast construction plan for the construction of the third outer city.

That is, building the third outer city with a steel structure is like building blocks, and it can be built very quickly.

Moreover, there are many advantages to building houses with steel structures. The first is that it is light in weight, which is about one-fifth of that of a brick-concrete structure. The second is that it is a plate-rib structure system with good earthquake resistance. The third is that the overall

Good rigidity, strong deformation ability, and good wind resistance. The fourth is to use materials with good anti-corrosion properties and good durability.

Therefore, I strongly recommend using steel structures to build exterior walls. Even if some half-meter-thick steel plates are directly installed inside the wall, the defense can be very strong!"

Li Yu frowned and said: "I have seen the construction design drawing you gave me, but I still say the same thing, the steel structure is indeed fast, but the construction of the wall is of great importance and all aspects must be considered.

.

Not only is it fast, but there are also the benefits you mentioned, and one thing to consider is waterproof performance, etc.

If nothing else, let’s just talk about this flood. If the flood level is higher, we can still use the wall to resist the flood outside, giving us a height of nearly 30 meters.

The same goes for the foundation, which must be deep enough. For a foundation of more than ten meters, we use reinforced concrete to build the foundation. It is indeed a waste, but it can also ensure the safety of the underground.

The wall is our barrier and must be built to be strong and safe enough.

What I want is that this wall should stand there so that no animals or zombies, except those flying in the sky, can enter."

The third uncle next to him said with approval: "I think what Xiaoyu said is very correct. If it weren't for such a stable wall, we would be wary in the base. Therefore, building with reinforced concrete is indeed time-consuming and laborious.

It requires more materials, but it does need to be more suitable for our current needs.”

Li Yuan, who has been responsible for organizing various materials in the base, opened his iPad, raised his hand and said: "Well, let me report that the current stock of steel in the base is still 231 tons. According to the amount used to build the second outer city, it is barely enough."

It is enough, but if the scope of construction is to be larger, then these steels will definitely not be enough."

Ding Jiu hesitated for a moment and said to everyone: "Well, this steel stock is not expected to be enough. The area of ​​the second outer city is 60 acres. Mr. Li's previous plan was to build a third outer city of 150 acres, right?"

Li Yu nodded and said: "Yes, it just happens to include the mountain on the west and the flat land. In this way, the west wall will be completely surrounded.

The first and second outer cities are located due south, completely surrounding the inner city and close to the gate.

To the east is a cliff.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! If the third outer city surrounds the western wall of the inner city, the security of the inner city will be greatly improved.

In this way, people from the outside world or zombies have to pass through the outer city before they can endanger the inner city."

150 acres, this is not a small number.

But now the natural disaster has just passed and the temperature is relatively suitable.

The greenhouses inside and outside the base can produce food stably.

If the base is going to continue to expand in the future, then now is undoubtedly a good time.

The expansion of the base is not that simple.

An average person might build a base like this:

First, there are enough people, and there is strength in numbers, and then these people are gathered together to start building bases, cultivating fields, and then harvesting food, and then the cycle resumes.

However, the uncertainty of the environment in the last days, coupled with the certainty that people have to eat, creates a huge conflict.

Bringing in a lot of survivors, you have to eat to work, but in the end of the world, which base is so wealthy and can provide so much food? They originally built the base to be able to produce food.

If you don't give food, who will do the work for you?

Second, what should I do if zombies come out at night during the construction of the base?

This is a problem that cannot be avoided or solved.

Unless there is a very stable and tall fence at the beginning, and then there is enough food, the population is not large, and the food pressure is not great, then only then can a positive cycle be carried out.

This is what the Da Zhangshu base is like. Li Yu, who was reborn, used the 30 million won in the lottery to leverage hundreds of millions of funds to build this base and hoard enough food.

And after the apocalypse broke out, we tried to find ways to collect various materials. In order to improve the progress in the later stage, even geniuses came up with the cooperation model. They used very little food in exchange for a large amount of labor to help the Zhangshu Base search for various materials.

All this has laid a good foundation for the Da Zhangshu Base.

How difficult it is to build a base from scratch.

Therefore, the Zhou family, who left the Western Alliance at that time, chose to follow the Liu family to Sanshan Village after careful consideration.

For no other reason than building a base is too difficult.

Under Li Yu's influence, they all formed a logic: to expand.

First, there must be enough stable and abundant food, and a sufficient supply of food.

Where do these come from?

Then you need a stable enough planting environment, otherwise it will be easily affected by natural disasters and zombies.

A stable enough planting environment requires building a strong enough fence

Li Yu's words once again sorted out the logic of development for everyone. This set of logic made everyone deeply understand how lucky they were.

The second uncle even said: "Xiaoyu is right. Although steel structure walls are fast to build, as Xiaoyu just said, in addition to not being waterproof, they are not fireproof either. Steel is made of steel, and the flame temperature is high enough.

If it does, it will easily collapse."

Li Yu nodded and said, "Okay, let's vote by a show of hands. Do you have any objections to the construction of the third outer city first? Does anyone think it is not suitable for construction at the moment?"

Lao Lu, who was sitting in the corner, was complaining in his heart: This is something that you and your family have discussed. It is already a done deal, and now you are still voting on it with a show of hands.

In the core meeting at Dazhangshu Base, in addition to some relatives of Li Yu, there were also some people who joined later.

For example: Da Pao, Yang Tianlong, Lao Lu, Ding Jiu, Song Min, Bai Jie, Lai Dongsheng, Anya, etc.

Although Lao Lu complained in his heart, he was the first to raise his hand. At this time, he stood up with a smile and said: "I agree with the construction of the third outer city."

"I agree too." Ding Jiu also raised his hand and said.

"I agree."

"I agree."
