Chapter 433 (1/2)
Sixth block.
The expansion in recent days has led to the extremely long defense line of the sixth block. In order to cope with the coming tide of alien species, the military government mobilized almost all the builders in the city to reinforce the wall around the sixth block and add machine guns and gun turrets to the wall.
Orders worth 1 million sub crystal!
For this reason, there is a strong wave of fear, but not many people feel happy. Some chose to flee, but most chose to stay.
To ask why, it is all because of a wartime regulation issued by South Chu.
”The real estate registered in the name of anyone who left the sixth block in wartime will be confiscated and used to pay for defense expenses. The surplus will be awarded to individuals or organizations that have performed well in wartime. If you have to leave, and want to give up the industry here, then please pay 20-40 sub crystal war tax per square meter for your industry here. The money will be used to pay for the mercenaries' salaries and the cost of strengthening the lines of defense and ammunition. ”
This order seems unreasonable, but in fact it is very fair.
Why do the soldiers of sixth block throw their heads and blood to keep the property here for you, while you vested interests flee to the outside at the critical moment? Either contribute or pay, or the NAC government will acquiesce that you give up the ownership of the real estate on the sixth block!
Although many businessmen tried to protest through Parliament, they obviously did not understand the situation. Of the 10 members, 5 were installed by Jiang Chen.
The bill passed without resistance and was supported by the vast majority of civilians.
These civilians managed to have their own homes on the sixth block. Who would like to return to the vagrant life? No one can sympathize with those who want to flee at the slightest whim, and who want to keep their property for them.
So, except for those who are based in other places. Basically no one chooses to leave at this time.
What's the use of tying unrelated people to the base?
It's very useful.
At present, the armed forces stationed in the sixth block are mainly composed of three forces. One is the third corps of NAC military government, the other is mercenaries and hunters and some armed scavengers, and the third is private soldiers of merchants!
Although the nuclear materials in their hands were seized after the denuclearization of the sixth block, the sixth block never restricted their armed forces. Because of doing business on waste land. If the gun is weak, it is a sheep with two feet. Even if it escaped the claws of other species, it could not escape the snatch of the same kind.
Leaving the merchants here means leaving their private soldiers here. These merchants have much more money than ordinary mercenary regiments, which is embodied in the quality of equipment. Although these merchants and private soldiers did not have the type-50 electromagnetic guns that were restricted for sale, there were still several assault infantry vehicles.
Civilians mobilized to join the army, and businessmen also painfully sent their private soldiers to the front line. Once a wave of alien species breaks out. It's impossible to open the gate. Since you choose to stay, there is no escape option. There is no point in hiding at this time. It's better to stand on the front line and mix some commission.
The military factory is in full swing, producing steel, aluminum and other materials from the fish bone base into ammunition.
At this point, the industrial capacity of sixth block will come into play.
When Jiang Chen disclosed part of the equipment and technology of the T-3 power armor purchased from Zhao Chenwu to other small workshops, and then produced parts through outsourcing. In a short period of one month, 20 sets of T-3 have been produced.
The yield is almost ten times as much as before.
Not only the power armor, but also the Type 99 anti tank gun and the screamer mortar... With the gradual improvement of the industrial system, these heavy weapons with low production capacity have been dragged out of the factory like water.
When they saw the heavy weapons being pulled from the factory to the front and boxes of bullets and shells being pulled to the supply point, almost everyone was full of confidence in the war.
If it's the zombie who's been harassing.
...
at the moment, it is 300 meters outside the north gate of the sixth block. Soldiers from the first Corps built a simple line of defense with mobile bunkers and sandbags, and machine gunned the approaching zombies. The wall behind them is being reinforced and rebuilt, and their task is to stay here and prevent the alien tide from advancing to the wall before the reconstruction is completed.
From time to time, there was a whistling sound behind them. It was the end of the whistler mortar electromagnetic ejection shell.
Three shells went up and smashed into the positions of the corpses. Flying shrapnel instantly tore up the nearby zombies, intestines and meat pieces scattered on the ground.
At this time, the explosion of dust suddenly created a huge object, it waved the billboard in hand, with a load-bearing pace to the defense line.
”Find meat mountain.”
Squatting behind the machine gun, pulling the trigger, a soldier yelled at his headset.”Yes.”
Answer calmly, with the explosion of the shell coming out of the chamber.
Orange shells roared past, smashing the skull of meat hill.
”Well done!” The soldier roared back and refilled the casing. Seeing a wave of offensive pause, the long-waiting scavenger rushed to the corpse of meat mountain with a knife and recovered the sub crystal from the back neck. After getting the sub crystal, they can leave 40% as their reward.
Standing on the tower, Zhao Gang observed all this with a telescope.
Different from the optimistic public opinion, as the head of the third corps, his face is not relaxed at the moment.
Although after many days of increasing troops, the strength of the third Corps has been expanded to 4000, which is the total number of the first and second corps, but this is still not enough to bring him too much optimism.
