Chapter 462: Blasting mission

5 min read1,283 words

Under the fissure next to the placement point, several Titans are digging

grooves for supporting steel beams along one side of the fissure.

Because the surrounding building debris needs to be blasted, it must be

reinforced in order to avoid affecting the structural stability of the

location where the current resettlement site is located.

The reinforcement method is also very simple. It is to build a frame with

steel beams, fix the platform formed by snow where the settlement point is

located, and fill the frame made of steel beams with a mixture of crushed

bricks and snow. Fill it with water and freeze it completely.

In this way, the foundation of the resettlement site can be secured and become

firm and stable.

This is not a new idea, it is just the old wisdom that Prime Minister Cao used

to build a city with splashing water when he conquered Xiliang more than two

thousand years ago.

However, the rescue team here is still inferior to Prime Minister Cao’s

ability to draw water directly from the Weishui River. They can only melt the

collected snow before splashing it to the place where it is needed, and the

speed must be fast, otherwise the water will be splashed without waiting.

First, he froze into ice cubes at a low temperature of tens of degrees below

zero.

Relying on this method, Titan and the construction staff only need to dig out

the grooves for supporting the steel beams, and then insert the steel beams

in. It is not even necessary to use cement, because the ice frozen at low

temperature has enough The firmness is enough to freeze the steel beam in the

ice and snow.

Of course, just as Prime Minister Cao’s splashing water to build a city was

only a temporary emergency method, using this method of condensing water into

ice to freeze steel beams in ice can only be a temporary emergency method.

Although the weather will not melt snow and ice under the current conditions,

this is an earthquake-stricken area. If aftershocks or new earthquakes occur,

the ice may crack due to the shaking, so this can only be used temporarily

under special circumstances. Emergency means to save time and construction

materials.

Relying on this rapid construction method and the construction efficiency of

Titans far exceeding ordinary employees, a steel structure frame was quickly

built, and even the fillers filled into the frame have been landfilled during

the construction process, allowing placement The location of the point becomes

firm and stable.

After the foundation of the resettlement site is stabilized, the blasting work

of surrounding buildings is naturally arranged.

In fact, when Titan built the fixed frame, a construction team composed of

airborne troops ventured into the uncollapsed building wreck to bury

explosives for blasting.

This is a very dangerous job, not only because of the potential danger of the

job itself that needs to bury explosives, but also because they entered the

wreckage of the building that had been devastated by the Doren disaster but

never collapsed.

Although these building wrecks did not collapse due to various reasons, the

internal structure has long been unstable, and no one knows whether they will

directly collapse due to someone entering and installing explosives.

The collapse of the wreckage itself is not a problem, but there are people

inside when it collapses, but it is really dangerous.

Even if the paratroopers that enter it to perform tasks have exoskeleton as

protection, tens of thousands of tons of things on their heads can be smashed

down, and even Titans can smash them, let alone people.

Fortunately, these airborne soldiers had good luck. Although the work of

digging into the wreckage to confirm the structure and placing explosives was

like dancing on a steel wire, they still completed the task without danger and

prepared for the blasting.

"It seems that next time we still have to study some weapons. In such a

situation, just use artillery bombardment and let people go in and plant

bombs. It's always too dangerous." Standing on a high place, Chen Xin saw that

he entered the ruins of the building to be laid. The dynamite paratroopers

successfully withdrew, and he could not help but complain while reassuring.

"How can you demolish the house with a cannon?" Hearing Chen Xin's words, the

commander of the paratroopers on the side couldn't help but joked.

Just now I was worried about the soldiers who went in and planted explosives.

Now that I saw their success in the car, the commander was relieved a lot, at

least he was in the mood to make a joke.

Just saying that, he couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "If there is a way

to prevent soldiers from risking their lives to complete the task, of course

it is best! The vocation of a soldier is to protect the people, but who is not

the parent of life? Raised? Watching these soldiers risk their lives to

perform missions, how can I not feel bad!"

"That's why in ancient times there was a saying that kindness does not control

the soldiers. There will always be people who need to sacrifice and pay." Chen

Xin also sighed.

During the war years, soldiers shed blood and sacrificed their lives to defend

their homeland. In peacetime, they also shed blood and sacrifices, making

silent dedication and dedication to defending the country and the people.

If it were the old Chen Xin, perhaps he would only be moved. There was no way

to do anything for these people, but now he can develop new equipment for

these soldiers.

Although this does not save the fighters from danger, it at least gives them

more protection in the face of danger.

With such thoughts in mind, Chen Xin said: "Looking back, I think about what

new equipment I can get. At least it can increase the survivability of the

soldiers in this situation."

Chen Xin thought of the heavy-duty power armor he was developing. This

equipment has excellent defensive capabilities in the face of dangerous

environments. It can not only withstand the impact of explosives, but also can

still be worn under the direct attack of small-caliber artillery. The survival

probability of the warrior is very suitable to be used to equip the soldiers

to deal with such dangerous tasks.

However, Chen Xin himself did not participate in the development of heavy

power armor. uukanshu.com just handed over several prototype power armors to

the research team and asked them to design improvements. There is not much

progress yet.

Now it seems that I might have to urge the research progress.

With such thoughts in mind, Chen Xin retreated to a safe place with the

commander. He was about to detonate, and it was very dangerous to stand too

far in front.

In order to save time as much as possible, several surrounding buildings were

blasted together, which not only increased the difficulty of blasting, but

also greatly increased the risk of blasting.

Therefore, everyone in the settlement is required to stay in a safe place as

much as possible, and cannot be onlookers. As for the monitoring of the

blasting, it is given to the Chenlong Ark in the sky.

"The countdown is five seconds, five, four, three, two, one! Detonation!" With

a countdown, there was a loud explosion of explosives. After a shock, a more

violent roar followed.

Chen Xin, staying in a safe bunker, clearly saw through the pre-installed

monitors that there was a burst of smoke from the wreckage of the surrounding

buildings, and then the whole began to collapse downwards, just as planned in

advance. A pile of collapsed ruins.
