Chapter 923 (1/2)
Xincheng has changed rapidly. Although more than 100000 civilians were nothing in the past, I'm afraid they didn't even have a population of a small county. However, in the end, more than 90% of the population was lost, and only tens of millions of people survived in the country. It is very rare to put more than 100000 cities here in Jinzhong.
After the end of the world, most civilians lived in the city for the first time. Looking at the familiar streets and tall modern buildings, everything seemed so strange and familiar.
The enthusiasm of more than 100000 people is unimaginable. In order to restore the urban function of Xincheng as soon as possible, more than 100000 people work more than ten hours a day. If it is not to save lighting energy at night, they will work overtime at night.
Even so, the recovery speed of Xincheng is not fast. This is not because some people are lazy, nor because Xincheng is too big, but the focus of Xincheng's work is on the construction of fortifications.
There are no fortifications in modern cities. The roads extending in all directions extend outside the city. The war has changed the appearance of the city. The city walls have been cancelled and now they are being rebuilt. It must be said that it is an irony.
The war of mutant creatures is completely different from the war of human beings. In the face of a large-scale wave of zombies, it is unimaginable that there is no solid wall. Millions of zombies pour into the city from all directions. Civilians have no power to fight back against ferocious zombies, so they can only use the wall to block the zombies outside the city. Even if a mutant creature suddenly comes in from a corner at ordinary times, it will set off a bloody storm in the city. It still needs the city wall to isolate the intrusion of mutant creatures.
The city wall of Xincheng is built along the edge of the city. At the same time, considering the possible zombie tide and dark tide, the whole city wall is very solid. The foundation alone is tens of meters deep, and some city walls are as high as twenty or thirty meters, which is thicker than the ancient city wall. It can drive two cars on it, taking into account the use of military barracks.
Zhang Yechang even put forward a plan for a super large base. The suitable living environment for Xincheng is only 4.5 million people, but the surviving population of the whole Jinzhong Area is definitely less than this number. In other words, Xincheng will face population pressure in the near future.
The development of Xincheng also needs a large number of population support. More than 100000 people seem to be a lot, but on the premise of the lack of population flow in the end of the world, this population is really nothing.
According to the calculation of the staff committee, if the population of a base is less than one million, it will face a sharp decline in population resources in the near future. At the same time, the population also means productivity, knowledge and talents... And it is more related to the inheritance of civilization. Therefore, a base with a sense of hardship should put the population problem in the first place. Lu Ziming agrees with Zhang Yechang and other staff members.
However, Lu Ziming was shocked by the future development plan of Xincheng proposed by Zhang Yechang. I don't know if it was affected by the legendary giant spirit world super city. In Zhang Yechang's plan, the future Xincheng will expand ten times as much as the current Xincheng, with a length of more than 100 kilometers from East to west, north to south, several times larger than that of Shanghai before the end of the world, Resolutely is an independent small kingdom.
Lu Ziming really didn't know that Zhang Yechang's crazy idea came out like this. It requires how much manpower, material resources and time. I'm afraid it may not be built in decades.
I don't know how Zhang Yechang persuaded others. Most people supported the plan and named it the blueprint of super city.
In fact, Lu Ziming agrees with the crazy plan from his heart, but considering the span of time and countless unknown factors, it's really out of my mind whether the plan can be completed in the end.
In other words, it will take four or five years to build Xincheng city wall. God knows what freaks this plan will become in the future.
