showdown!I enjoy life on the island

So next, in terms of fortifications, the things I need to do are as follows:

First, strengthen the fence.

It just so happens that [Metal Proficiency] still needs to be upgraded, so I can smelt another batch of steel with specific properties to make up for the weakness of the stone wall.

Second, add firepower.

The production of gunpowder cannot be interrupted, and more red cannons have to be made. The cannons do not require high mobility, so they can be fixed on the base.

The manufacturing cost of burial is saved, and it feels like playing tower defense.

Then... can I change the name of the red-clothed cannon to be an operator?

Ah, I remembered the tragic years when I was an African swordsman tower with blue sky and white clouds.

After all, isn't the purpose of saving stones to sink the ship in the end?

awful.

Third, the storage space for materials in the small courtyard needs to be expanded, and firearms also need to be stored in different categories. After the amount is increased, they cannot be stacked casually like before.

Well, before that, the Ganoderma lucidum must be transplanted.

Chapter 385 External Wall Reinforced Concrete

Ganoderma lucidum Xu Le was originally intended to be transplanted to the fields in the mountains.

But after thinking about it, he felt that it would not be a big problem to put it in the shelter on the cliff.

The root of Ganoderma lucidum is bouldering, and the two have almost become a whole.

If you really want to plant it, you will inevitably need to dig out the mycelium from the cracks in the stones.

In this way, it is easy to damage the foundation.

On the other hand, in the shelter on the cliff, the most indispensable thing is the stone, dig a hole and throw it in, it can be counted as the completion of the transplant.

Simple, convenient, and hassle-free.

As for fertility, don't worry about it either.

When burning the remains of the giant scorpion, he had already collected a considerable part of the ash to use as fertilizer.

Sprinkling the ash into the dug holes and turning the rocks into fertile soil is like a special effect.

The fertility contained in a stone wall is comparable to two meters of nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium being extracted up.

Soil with humus accumulation is nothing more than that.

The transplanting place of Ganoderma lucidum was selected in the stone house, which is also to simulate the dark scene inside the cliff.

Xu Le thoughtfully built another thin layer of stones outside to further block the light.

It can be felt that Ganoderma lucidum is quite adaptable to the new home.

After the transplantation is completed, the nutrients between the rocks will be absorbed again, turned into medicinal power, and stored among the hyphae.

After the "Energy Chain" was activated, the vitality feedback from Ganoderma lucidum came, and the consumption of [Vigor Explosion] just now was quickly replenished.

Rock Ganoderma lucidum can be used as a quick vitality supplement for the cliff shelter, which is convenient to provide a steady stream of supplements in a battle of a similar scale just now.

The next thing to be built is not a small project. This side of the cliff can easily replenish vitality, and Xu Le can also gather wool on the spot to create a durable halo.

After all, at the beginning of the awakening of [Vigor Explosion] skill, he defined this skill as an enhanced version of "Durability Aura".

Start strengthening the walls!

Originally, the purpose of Xu Le's wall was not for defense, but more for enclosing the residence and protecting it from wind and rain.

Even if it is just a simple pile of stones in a circle, and the defense ability is not so good, it can also bring a kind of spiritual comfort and sense of security.

But the walls that simply divide the space and the walls that are used as fortifications are very different in structure.

The walls that shelter from wind and rain, and the walls that resist invasion cannot be generalized.

Xu Le patted the stones built around the small courtyard, and the stones felt cold to the touch.

It is these stones that shield most of the sea breeze, making the environment inside the yard quite pleasant.

But now it must be dismantled.

Stone walls are easy to build, but equally easy to tear down.

What's more, the walls used before were irregularly shaped stones with loose stress and limited strength.

Scrambled and pulled with an iron pick, the chest-high courtyard wall collapsed in sections.

Meng Yiyi clenched her small fist reluctantly, and muttered softly: "I think the courtyard wall is pretty good..."

During these days, the little cutie has often dozed off against the courtyard wall.

On a hot island, the breeze blowing in through the pores of the stones becomes soft and cool. Leaning on the back of a giant spirit, Bajie or Erha, taking a nap in the afternoon is simply enjoying life.

No wonder there are feelings.

Xu Le comforted her and said, "It's okay, it's just to strengthen the structure.

"You don't want the courtyard wall to collapse when there is a more intense impact next time, right?"

Cutie nodded, she still knew the priority.

Reluctant to return, but the defense of the small courtyard is the first.

This time the stone wall did not suffer any impact, but there was no guarantee that some beast would rush under the wall next time.

Don't be afraid of [-], just in case, it is still very important to plan for a rainy day.

Demolition should be demolished, and reconstruction should be rebuilt.

She exhaled heavily, then grabbed an iron pick: "I'll help clean up the gravel, too!"

Good boy...Xu Le patted the bird's nest head: "Then you can push the removed stones together with an iron pick."

After all the stones are removed and stacked neatly.

Xu Le continued to command the orangutan engineering team, wielding the pickaxe, and dug out a foundation about half a meter wide along the edge of the courtyard.

While digging the foundation, he ignited the ventilation furnace and started smelting iron ore.

With the Sawtooth Newt family mining, the stock of iron ore is increasing day by day. The iron material smelted by Xu Le has low carbon content, which reduces rigidity, and the emphasis is on toughness.

The iron material is then melted and forged into long strips.

The length of the iron bar can reach about 1.5 meters, and the thickness is similar to that of the index finger.

Xu Le held the cooled iron bar and bent it slightly, and saw that the iron bar was bent into a circle very smoothly, and then bounced back as he let go.

"We use the structure of steel bars to enhance the toughness."

Barrage in the live broadcast room——

"Steel bar? Xu Shen...is this made of steel bar?"

"Surviving on a deserted island to smelt steel bars, who can learn this operation?"

"I even suspect that what I'm looking at is not survival on a deserted island, but the infrastructure of a big country..."

"It's very logical for the players in my big infrastructure mad country to roll steel bars empty-handed."

"The performance is really awesome, it can be bent like this, and the toughness is quite good."

"So, Xu Shen is planning to build a reinforced concrete exterior wall?"

"Awesome hey!"

"..."

The "steel bars" produced by melting and forging were smashed into the foundation, and there were two rows inside and outside, with an interval of about [-] centimeters between the two, and they were evenly distributed.

Perpendicular to the longitudinal "rebar", Xu Le bundles more "rebar" horizontally.

These horizontal and vertical iron bars surround a steel frame, which feels very reliable just by looking at it.

"Our walls are still mainly stone structures, but we need adhesive to fill in the gaps so that we have a good fastening effect.

"The adhesive is the cement we used before, and it is made in the same way as when building the filter tank."

He mixed limestone and clay for calcination, and as long as a certain amount of water was added to the ash from the calcination, it was good quality cement.

Well, walls made of reinforced concrete are bound to be stronger...

Correspondingly, if the entire yard is to be enclosed by concrete pouring, the consumption of cement will be terrifying.

As far as the current stock of limestone is concerned, it is quite difficult to get the whole yard.

But if the work is delayed for a long time and cannot be completed as soon as possible, and it is washed by a wave of insects or something, it may be cold.

Of course, there may not necessarily be a new swarm of insects. Thinking about the good, maybe the ones hunted and killed before may already be the entire stock of Depth Four...

Foreman Xu waved his hand, and the Sawtooth Newt family, together with the strengthened Black Star Giant Spirit, were all sent out to dig limestone and other raw materials.

For a while, chickens and dogs jumped everywhere in the woods.

Relying on only four small salamanders is no longer able to cope with the heavier and heavier delivery tasks.

Xu Le simply recruited the wolves back, and La Zhuang Ding sent out the strongest wolves to haul the ore together.

So, having more helpers is great!

No matter what project I do, there are helpers to help me demolish it.

Xu Le, the unscrupulous foreman, gave himself a thumbs up.

During the few days waiting for the cement raw materials to be prepared, he let the orangutans continue to bring back more wood.

The wood is cut into boards with a sawmill, and the thickness is about two fingers.

The plank-shaped wood is wrapped in parallel on the outside of the "reinforcement bar", and a certain gap is left between the "reinforcement bar" and used as a template during pouring.

The entire formwork is vertical to the ground on the outside of the small courtyard, while the inside has a sloping slope.

This is a very typical city wall shape, with a trapezoidal cross-sectional structure, which has a fairly strong impact resistance.

Chapter 386 Concrete Wall

Steel is the bone, and the mold made of woven wood planks outlines the general shape of the wall after it is completed.

With the support of modern industry, a half-meter-thick wall may not be difficult to build.

Masonry, steel, concrete...

The products on the mature production line are enough to build a thick enough wall in a very short period of time.

Not to mention mere beasts, even human construction machinery needs a lot of effort to dismantle such a wall.

The words "Steel Jungle" are not called for nothing.

And if the wall is really made of steel or heavier metal, it is even more difficult for anything to penetrate casually.

Even armor-piercing projectiles may not be absolutely sure that they can penetrate the bunker.

But on the island, it is purely by manpower to collect minerals, smelt steel, build bones, and make molds...

What Xu Le is doing at this moment is undoubtedly a miracle that human power can create!

After several days of preparatory work, a group of war pets dug frantically at the limestone vein, and a conspicuous hole was dug inward from the mountain.

The limestone was continuously transported to the small courtyard, and after a series of processes such as calcination and grinding, it was made into Xu Le's special version of cement.

Then use the [Construction] skill to mix sand and gravel of varying thicknesses with these cements to obtain coarse-grained concrete.

In the concrete, the contours of a large number of stone blocks are still clearly visible.

"Line up, pick up the concrete one by one, and pour it in at the designated location!"

With arms akimbo, Meng Yiyi waved a small flag she had newly sewn, and made the orangutans of the delivery team line up.

In the hands of the orangutans in the material transportation team, they carried densely woven baskets filled with concrete.

They arrived at the mixing site first, and the orangutans in the mixing team scooped up the concrete and filled the baskets.
