Chapter 741 (2/2)

Jiang Chen shook his head.

”As planned, you will be responsible for sending our transport ships to the shallow sea first. I will try to solve the problem of mud crabs.”

”As you wish.” Wu Yue nodded his head slightly.

……

Despair beach is located in the northernmost part of Yizhou Island, which is the lowest in the northern part of the island.

In front of the station, it used to be a water park covering thousands of acres, spreading from the beach along the shallow sea to the edge of the deep sea. Now, however, it has long been bombed into ruins, and a cargo ship is leaning over the shoal.

The intertwined steel skeleton and debris form a wetland like environment in the shoal. Algae and seaweed grow uncontrollably in the damp shadow. It is a paradise for scavengers and hotbeds for variation.

Even experienced adventurers dare not set foot in the dangerous area easily. Even the power armor, in front of mud crab's pincers and thousand blades and sharp teeth, is difficult to get benefits. Not to mention the other mutants lurking in the shallow sea, with the help of complex terrain, their attack means are even more defensible.

And that's why it's called the beach of despair, and it's what makes anyone who gets involved in it feel desperate.

The execution efficiency of Li Wang was very high, and the construction of the defense line began on the day of receiving the order. A hundred construction robots are working around the desperate beach, laying the foundation for the wall. At the same time, there are local survivors employed by the expeditionary army, who are paid 5 sub crystals a day.

Not everyone has the money to live in a shelter, not to mention its limited space. When the month of disaster comes, most people still choose to hide in their temporary shelter from DIY by hand and spend the months of terror with their families.Although at the beginning, the arrival of the expeditionary force made them feel wary. After all, judging from their excellent armed forces, these people did not look like good people. But when the survivors saw that they began to build fortifications along the beach of despair, they changed their minds.

Even if they don't think these people can block hundreds of thousands of mud crabs that come ashore to lay eggs, they still have a sense of luck in their hearts.

If these people beat back the mud crab from the desperate beach, the disaster month that has plagued Yizhou island for more than ten years will be completely eradicated. To be optimistic, if mud crabs are hurt by NAC people this year and fail to lay eggs in Yizhou Island, they may be forced to change their living habits and start to migrate to other places in the next year.

As a result, there is one less season for these survivors to survive.

Therefore, when the expeditionary forces entered the survivors' settlements around Taipei, these survivors were very cooperative, at least not as uncooperative as before.

On the other hand, Jiang Chen has made contact with the fish bone base, and has transferred 1000 people from the third corps into the expeditionary army.

At present, there are only 500 Expeditionary Army soldiers stationed in Taipei. It is obviously unrealistic to fill a line several kilometers wide with this force. If we can't recruit enough soldiers from the local people, we can only draw reinforcements from Wanghai city.

According to the plan put forward by the engineering team affiliated to the expeditionary army, the total width of the battlefield is 1 km. First, 52 5-meter-high defense towers were built along the edge, and then the 52 defense towers were connected by 3-meter-high and half-meter-wide concrete walls. Sandbags were piled up behind the concrete wall, and ditches and wooden piles were set in front to prevent mud crabs from penetrating.

A total of 1400 workers have been engaged in the construction of the defense line. With the cooperation of Engineering robots, there should be no problem in completing the defense line.

With the arrival of a new batch of supplies, a very heavy machine gun was carried onto the built wall, and the orange bullet chain was filled with ammunition boxes, dazzling like gold. The rocket launcher was arranged in the open space of the expeditionary force fortress. The artillery skillfully installed the launcher and completed the deployment of the ”fireball-1” system.

When seeing this scene, those survivors working in the front immediately dispelled their worries and became more energetic.

With such a strong armed force, perhaps these people can really do (to be continued. )Mobile phone users please browse and read, better reading experience.
