Chapter 1648 Construction

San Juan is less than 150 kilometers away from Mexico City, and more than 200 kilometers away from the border line of the ‘Mexican United Front’ in the north. It is supposed to be the safe hinterland of the Aurora Legion.

"Don't believe that it's not safe. We don't have enough troops. We basically gave up the garrison in the north. We are now the front line." Sebastian waved a whip and cracked, and all the Mexican workers under him were

His face turned pale with fear.

When the Aurora Corps was about to push north, ten light infantry divisions that had completed preliminary training by the Mexican government were mobilized to garrison along the road. For each city where they were stationed, semi-permanent fortifications were built 20 kilometers outside the city to complete a fortress-like layout.

The distance between each city is no more than thirty kilometers, and they just push all the way north. In order to build these fortifications, more Mexican laborers were organized. The smarter ones learned to drive construction machinery, and the dumber ones did hard work.

, in short, there is definitely work to be done on such a large project.

Sebastian is a bit stupid, but because he can understand some English, he became the leader of a coolie group. He wears a civilian version of camouflage uniforms and a pair of liberation shoes, and commands 20 or 30 people who are responsible for doing odd jobs -

—The specific work will be arranged by the Chinese supervisor.

Sebastian's workers had just completed basic training and were pulled up from the rear. When they heard that they were on the front line, they suddenly became restless. So Sebastian kept waving the pink whip in his hand.

Shock them and drive them to start working immediately.

"Don't be too afraid. We are surrounded by troops. The enemy can only harass us sporadically. Compared with the past days, not many people will die now. Work hard, you will like it here."

Sebastian talks about "working", but in fact he wants to be lazy. But what he is currently doing is said to be a national defense project. If he slacks off, he will be arrested for "sabotage" and may be whipped.

, or in severe cases, be shot.

At the construction site, graders, bulldozers, excavators, road rollers, and pavers were all available. More than a dozen cement mixers rumbled up and dumped a large amount of mixed cement on a planned open space.

This kind of work efficiency once surprised Sebastian. His men could only assemble the house, which was very slow in comparison. "These machines are really powerful, and the legion has obtained too much steel and concrete."

"

It takes less than three days to build a large sentry post. All components have been designed and built according to standard before being shipped. Workers on the construction site only need to assemble it.

Three shifts of work lasted from morning to afternoon, and Sebastian's whip-wielding hands were tired. His work team was going to build two sets of simple houses today, but one set had not yet been completed.

"Group 111 is going to eat now." A Chinese supervisor came over to take a look, and after comparing the progress schedule, he cursed loudly: "You are too slow. Come back to work immediately after eating, otherwise you will not be able to rest for the whole day.

This is the first warning."

Sebastian was frightened when he heard the word 'warning'. After three warnings, he would be punished with a whip. If five warnings were not used, he would be arrested. He immediately turned around and waved his whip to urge his subordinates.

Said: "Hurry up and finish eating before continuing."

The workers were very energetic after hearing that there was food to eat. A group of people cheered and walked to the temporary canteen two to three hundred meters away from the construction site, where enough food had been prepared.

After occupying Mexico City, Zhou Qingfeng brought over Rabbit's various war preparation supplies. Now after nearly three months of consumption, half of them have not been used up. Ordinary workers still eat cheap food such as aged grains, but Seba

Stian, the foreman, can have a slightly better meal.

The strenuous physical labor whetted the appetite, and everyone devoured the food. Sebastian quickly finished his portion of potato stewed pork and pancakes, and then took a bottle of ice-cold salt soda and poured it into his mouth.

Ah..., as the cold liquid poured into his throat, Sebastian exhaled happily - life is much better now than in the past, with eating, drinking and playing.

Yes, there is still play. Sebastian just bought a human body doll two days ago. The simulation is really good, and the feel and texture are top-notch. The only trouble is that you have to clean it after use, otherwise

It won’t feel good the next time you use it.

There can't be women on the construction site, and 'Cat Claw' won't open a branch to the front line. Many Mexicans choose to buy a human doll to solve their physiological problems. At least they need an airplane cup or something. This thing is quite good to buy.

.

The pink whip in Sebastian's hand is matched with the doll. But every time the Chinese supervisor sees him using this whip to urge his men to work, their eyes look weird.

After a five-minute break after the meal, many of the new workers stared at Sebastian's whip. He was proudly passing on his successful experience, "You guys, you just don't study hard. You even go to night school."

I can't even learn English, so I can only work as a coolie at the lowest level.

I'm different, I can communicate with the supervisors if I can speak English. I also plan to learn Chinese, so my salary will be higher. So, if you listen to me, life will get better."

Sebastian can't say that he actually learned English when he was working as a gangster in Texas, and the Chinese he knows is the curse words often used by supervisors. It's just that he can eat potatoes and pork stew.

It’s enough to make the newly arrived Mexican workers burst into enthusiasm for learning.

"Work hard and learn from me." After the break, Sebastian urged his men to go back to work. They will work with another group until they complete the day's work tasks.

The workers followed Sebastian around the construction site sparsely, listening to his boasts. Some were confused, some were curious, and some were secretly determined.

And at this seemingly normal moment, a roar suddenly came from the sky, followed by several explosions on the ground, and clouds of black smoke rose up on the construction site. Sebastian was just hit by a cloud of black smoke.

It was shrouded in smoke and blown up on the spot.

"Enemy is attacking, find cover." The supervisor on the construction site suddenly shouted, and countless people were running around like headless chickens.

The Mexican army stationed at the construction site responded quickly. More than a dozen spare drones immediately took off to expand the scope of investigation. The artillerymen on the heavy artillery positions in the rear also immediately entered the artillery positions. Whenever the enemy was found, they would carry out artillery fire according to the predetermined coordinates.

.

The only thing is that no one left the construction site.

Half an hour later, retaliatory bombardment began and lasted for more than ten minutes, but the effect was unclear.

The officer in charge of building the fortress determined that this was a sporadic enemy attack. Someone fired shells from a 60 mortar several kilometers away at the construction site in an attempt to disturb the normal construction of the construction site.

The shell hit a newly constructed road surface and did not cause much damage. There were several injured people crying and one person lying on the ground motionless.

There was only one line in the report that day: 'The road surface was slightly damaged and can be repaired. The personnel losses were not large, with only one death and two minor injuries. The mood of the labor and troops was stable. The progress of the project can be guaranteed.'

Huh..., this kind of report would not even be submitted to Zhou Qingfeng. Seeing that only one person died and two were injured, the commander at the front didn't care at all, and just ordered the construction to continue to be stepped up.
