In the afternoon of that day, Allen happily followed Kate to Puduo City, and the next morning, he followed Kate back in despair.
After Iger asked, he found out that the underground factory had been found and most of the equipment was in good condition. The problem was that it was too heavy and could not be moved manually.
After everyone spent a long time trying, the machine tool didn't move at all, so we had to give up first.
Seeing the golden mountain in front of him but unable to lift it, Allen became very irritable. At this time, Nicholas comforted him and said, I heard that Vance's workshop was moved from the Gospel Community, you can ask him.
As soon as Allen heard this, he immediately wanted to drive to Jixi Town. It was almost midnight at this time.
To put it bluntly, everyone kept Allen waiting all night. Early the next morning, Allen took Kate's car to Jixi Town.
After finding Vance, Vance responded to Allen's question. Vance said, yes, my workshop was indeed moved from Jixi Town.
When Allen heard that he was saved, he immediately asked Vance for his experience in moving machine tools.
Vance glanced at Allen and said strangely, wasn't the construction truck sent to Ross Town? You can use the crane of that thing to move the machine tool.
Only then did Allen remember that there was indeed a tow truck with a robotic arm on the construction site where the mound wall was being excavated, so he thought for a moment and followed Kate back to Ross Town empty-handed.
After hearing Allen's words, Iger was also shocked.
Good guy, I know you have some axes in doing things, but I didn’t expect you to be so axed.
Egg, who couldn't laugh or cry, took Allen to the construction site and borrowed the tow truck from Lal, and also gave it a driver.
An anxious Allen led the driver and roared towards Puduo City.
Seeing the tow truck getting on the road without even having time to clean the mud off its wheels, Egger shook his head.
Allen can only be a general, not a commander.
Just as Allen left in a hurry, a Japanese hatchback car drove from the west highway to Ross Town. After the car stopped, a weather-beaten middle-aged man got out. This was Old John's son, Little John.
.
People in China may not understand why someone would give their son the same name as themselves, but this is a very common situation here, so common that Da Mao announced sanctions against Sleepy Joe, and ended up sanctioning his father.
Sleepy Joe's full name is joseph te biden jr, and his father's full name is joseph te biden.
When Da Mao announced the sanctions list, he left out Jr., and was ridiculed as a result.
After Little John came over, he first apologized to Iger. The original arrangement was to come yesterday, but something happened at John's farm, so Little John had to delay for a day.
After Iger asked, he found out that John's farm had been bankrupt for several years, and the agricultural machinery was there, and it looked like that, but as soon as it was used, some minor problems occurred.
In the past, these small problems could be solved in minutes, but now it is troublesome and there are no accessories.
For this accessory, Little John drove dozens of kilometers along the road, looking for farms one by one, and then dismantled enough parts from other machinery.
After hearing what Little John said, Iger clapped his head. The farm here hasn't tried the machine yet, so there might be something wrong.
Iger quickly called someone and asked him to call Kate over. Today Kate no longer has to go to Puduo City to transport goods. She can just find someone to go for her. If they don't see each other for a few days, Bill won't die.
After Kate came over, Egger introduced the mechanics of the reclamation team to Little John and tenant George. Today, he will try out all the farm machinery. If there is any problem, Kate can help repair it.
Before the group left Ross Town and headed to the farm, Egger made a serious request to Little John: to plant as much as possible.
Little John quickly agreed to Iger's request. He came to help not for free, but to calculate the salary, and the salary was quite large. A few more days of work would be equivalent to planting an acre of land.
The food problem was finally solved, and Egger breathed a sigh of relief.
There is only the last small section of the wall left. I heard that everyone had a can of meat for lunch today. Everyone was so excited about their work that they almost raised the soil to the sky when shoveling.
Egger walked to the earth wall that was first built. He gave it a try. Although his shoes were still a little stuck, people could already climb up.
A very perfect small earthen wall, although it is only two meters high, there is a trench two meters deep in front.
The trench and the straight wall are a perfect match. Although the trench is neither deep nor wide, and the wall is short, it is not that easy to cross.
If a group of infected people comes over, they need to fill the trench with heads first, then step on the heads, leaving a 2-meter-high wall in front of them.
Without waiting for the infected to fill the trench, the defenders had already dumped barrels of fuel into the trench and set it on fire.
Such a fiery trench can easily be filled with thousands of infected people.
If the attackers are survivors, it will be difficult for them to cross trenches and earth walls, and they must use tools. In addition to preventing enemies from climbing over, thick earth walls can also withstand bullets, and defenders can lie down behind the earth walls to calmly
Take a shot.
After Iger got off the earth wall, he was very satisfied with the construction of the earth wall and was ready to praise Lal. Just when Iger found Lal and was about to praise him, Iger suddenly thought of a question and asked Lal.
: "How are you going to install your gate?"
Do you need to install a door?
Lal was stunned for a moment, and he asked Iger: "Isn't the engineering task you assigned me to build a wall?"
Hearing Laer's words, Iger was also stunned. Good guy, you are indeed a good guy. I was just about to praise you, and you came out like this.
As for the gate, Iger is not going to bother Lar. Allen has already set off today. After Allen's workshop is established, he will trouble Allen and Kate to design the gate or pry an iron fence from somewhere else.
You can also install the door.
Turning back to the cathedral, the team members were carrying supplies on the truck like ants. The basement and most rooms of the cathedral were converted into warehouses for stacking different goods.
Seeing everything in order, Egger finally felt at ease. The food was in place, the food was in place, the food was in place.
Egger returned to the bedroom happily, and he was going to write a few more words before dinner.
…
It wasn't until the afternoon of the next day that Allen returned.
Allen used a mechanical crane to move the machine tools to other trucks, and emptied the underground factory in one go.
Due to the fire, the machine tool was partially damaged. For example, all wires and rubber parts needed to be inspected or replaced.
Maintenance is a delicate job, but with Kate and Pi's help, it shouldn't be a big problem.
Building your own arsenal cannot be completed in a day or two. Ai pulled Alan and Kate to discuss installing the gate.
This matter is indeed a bit difficult to handle.
The difference between Ross Town and Jixi Town is that Jixi Town is not on the main highway. The main highway is the bypass road connecting it, so closing the entire commercial area is not a big problem and has no impact on traffic.
Ross Town is shaped like a middle letter, and the interstate highway runs through Ross Town from east to west.
In other words, Ross Town is a small town built on both sides of the road and then gradually developed. This situation is very common in various places. In China, there is also a very vivid name called "Rouga Mo". If you switch to America,
Calling a hot dog should be more vivid.
Of course, the advantages of this small town built on interstate highways are not to mention, but the disadvantage is that its future development is greatly restricted.
For example, now, Ige proposes to build a gate, and everyone has been gesturing for a long time on the road in the gap, but they still don't know what kind of gate should be used to block such a wide two-lane road.
And another problem involved is that after the gate is closed, the road traffic is actually cut off. Of course, the problem is not big. Passing vehicles can detour from the dirt road outside the town, but if the other party drives through, the thin
The door can't stop it.
Just when everyone was scratching their hair, Kate had a flash of inspiration. She said to Iger: "Or, should we follow the example of Jixi Town and block the road with cars?"
Building a car wall?
What Iger wants is a door, not a wall. Blocking this place will definitely cause great inconvenience to traffic.
Kate shook her head and said: "I'm talking about the blockade of the street entering Jixi Town. Use a large truck to carry out a movable blockade."
This method is good, but do we have that many cars?
Egg looked at the width of the road. Although the road was only a two-lane road, it was not difficult for three cars to pass side by side at the same time. If the roadside foundation was fully utilized, four cars could pass.
Don't ask why Iger's estimate of road width is so accurate. Anyone who has driven in a big city for several years will have an extremely accurate and keen ability to predict road and vehicle width.
Kate said to Iger: "A little way east of Ross Town, there is a truck rest area. There are dozens of trucks parked there. Although their cargo compartments have all been pried open, everything of value has been taken away.
It's broken, and the fuel tank is probably drilled, but the car should be in good condition. You just need to repair the fuel tank and refill it with fuel, and it's ready for use."
Iger was shocked that there was such a good thing.
Of course, Egger didn't ask Kate why he didn't tell him the news earlier. He knew that repairing these trucks was not an easy task and required many tools.
In daily use, this kind of truck consumes very high fuel, and ordinary teams cannot afford it.
In order to save fuel, Little John even drove a hatchback Japanese car.
In the future, fossil resources will become less and less used, so the large oil depot of the Reclamation Group is extremely important.
Egg suddenly remembered that although Puduo City was gone, there were still several important buildings that needed to be occupied, such as gas stations, hospitals, and police stations.
Egg authorized Kate to take care of the car. After receiving the order, Pete turned on the power of the gas station and started the gas pump. If he wanted to drive these big guys back, he would need to transport a few barrels of fuel in a pickup truck.
After getting ready, Kate led two pickup trucks with eight people in them towards the truck resting point.
What is a man if he has his favorite toy?
Kate immediately forgot about Bill, who was far away in Puerto Rico.
Egger gave instructions to several group members who were preparing to continue driving to Puduo City, asking them to remind Erica to pay attention to the important resources for occupying Puduo City.
The convoy then headed towards Puduo City. In the past few days, we need to seize the time to rush to transport supplies before the number of people increases.
