Doomsday Commander.

Chapter 76 South Gate
In the early morning of the next day, Tang Zheng got up early, followed the sketch drawn by Guo Yun, and came to the location of the outer city wall.

After confirming the location of the city wall and city gate, Tang Zheng started construction.

This outer city wall is very important, not only may it face wars in the future, but it is also Tang Zheng's facade.

So Tang Zheng decided to directly use the ultimate city wall.

Turn on the system to check the situation of the ultimate city wall.

[Ultimate city wall: 20 meters high, ten meters thick, reinforced concrete structure, priced at one hundred gold per meter. 】

This is the price of direct construction without using building materials.

Tang Zheng added building materials, and the price changed.

[Ultimate city wall: 20 meters high, ten meters thick, reinforced concrete structure, priced at ten gold per meter. 】

The base Tang Zheng wants to build is a rectangle.

According to the plan, the east-west length of the city is five kilometers, and the north-south length is two kilometers.

In this case, the length of a circle of the ultimate city wall is 14000 meters.

One hundred gold per meter, this circle of city wall alone costs 140 million.

With the use of building materials, 14 can enclose the city wall.

Of course, the actual price must exceed this price, because there are still city gates to be built, watchtowers and dark forts to be built, and this price cannot be afforded.

Using building materials, Tang Zheng first chose a city gate.

This gate is the south gate of the future city.

[City Gate (Water Gate): Can be placed in the city wall, alloy structure, priced at [-] gold per meter. 】

Tang Zheng thought about it, and decided to make the city gate 50 meters wide.

The width of 50 meters is enough for vehicles to enter and exit, and it is also very atmospheric, so it is more suitable as a facade.

Click, and the iron and steel materials he obtained immediately consumed more than half, and at the same time, masonry and cement also consumed a considerable part.

At the same time, [-] gold was deducted from the funds. If no building materials were used, [-] gold would have entered this city gate.

display.

With a bang, a huge city wall appeared.

The city wall is 50 meters long, 20 meters high and ten meters thick.

There is a huge iron gate in the center, the iron gate is lifting type, and there are two winches on the left and right sides of the city wall, which can raise the city gate to a height of ten meters.

Such a city gate has no lock, and there is no way to unlock it, so this is almost a city gate that cannot be broken head-on.

Tang Zheng walked over. The city gate was made of alloy pillars with a thickness close to half a meter. The pillars were so dense that a human body couldn't pass through them at all.

Moreover, the smooth surface of the pillar is not subject to force, and it is almost an indestructible existence. Even if it is bombarded with a cannon, the result is the same.

Looking up at the top of the city gate, Tang Zheng couldn't help but admire Guo Yun's design.

The 20-meter-high city wall and 19 meters are all smooth surfaces, which are difficult to climb.

On the top of the city wall, there is a protruding stone that protrudes about half a meter.

This bulge alone has become a difficult point for climbing. Even if someone can climb the city wall, it will be difficult to get over this protruding stone. There is no point of strength on it, so it cannot be used for climbing.

Tang Zheng came to the back of the city wall, there are steps that zigzag back and forth to the top, Tang Zheng walked up.

On the top of the city wall, there are crenels like the ancient city walls. Soldiers can shoot calmly in the crenels, and the crenels can provide cover for their bodies.

The thickness of the city wall at the foot reaches ten meters, and there are crenels on the outside, and there is a 1.3-meter-high parapet wall on the inside to prevent people from accidentally falling from it.

The actual road is about nine meters wide, and it's easy to run two cars side by side.

Standing on the city wall and looking down, the scenery to the south is unobstructed.

The Fengming River meanders and flows into the distance.

To the south is a vast plain, and the line of sight can see far.

Tang Zheng looked at the bare city wall, and turned on the system again.

[Watch tower: It can be built on the reinforced city wall and the ultimate city wall, equipped with high-power searchlights, and the price is [-] gold. 】

Tang Zheng clicked on a sentry tower, came to the east side of the city gate, and placed one first.

With a sound, a sentry tower rose from the foundation of the city wall.

The sentry tower is 15 meters high and is supported by four pillars. The four pillars are ten meters high. They were built on both sides of the city wall and are entirely made of reinforced concrete.

Near the inner side, there is an iron ladder that can climb to the top, which is ten meters high.

Tang Zheng climbed up the ladder and reached the top of the sentry tower.

This is a relatively large interior space with a 1.3-meter-high parapet, and there are tables and chairs for resting inside.

On the southern parapet, a high-power searchlight was erected.

The wires were already connected, Tang Zheng walked over and turned on the searchlights.

A strong light shot out, even in the bright morning, you can see a beam of light shining far away.

And this height is already more than 30 meters, looking from here to the distance, you can see even more distant.

"Good guy, put some of these watchtowers on the city wall, it's too difficult for others to get close to here."

Coming down from this watchtower, Tang Zheng came to the west side of the city wall and placed a second watchtower.

After that, he came down from the city wall again, and placed two machine gun bunkers on the left and right sides of the city gate.

The machine gun bunker is directly embedded in the city wall.

Inside there is a small barracks room with beds and electric lights, which can accommodate four people to rest in it.

There are shooting holes on the side near the city gate, and a thick metal plate is inlaid around it, so that the internal space of the city wall will not be sacrificed, resulting in a decline in the defense of the city wall.

In this way, the construction of the South City Gate will be completed.

Whether it is above or below the city gate, the defense system has been basically completed.

Even Tang Zheng couldn't imagine, apart from those modern heavy weapons, what else could pose a threat to this place.

Returning to the city gate again, Tang Zheng clicked on the city wall and continued to place it.

Place it one meter, and the road under your feet will extend one meter outward.

Put it ten meters away, and the road under your feet will extend ten meters away.

Tang Zheng was also very excited to see this gigantic project that he could easily build, and kept clicking and placing it.

When the left and right sides were placed about 50 meters apart, Tang Zheng stopped.

Because building materials are not enough.

Think about it too, this kind of city wall with a height of 20 meters and a thickness of [-] meters consumes a lot of materials.

Tang Zheng was a little dissatisfied, and even wanted to use the system funds to buy directly without using the materials.

But he still suppressed this idea and patiently waited for the team that had been out early in the morning to return.

When the time came near noon, the convoy came back.

This time, two combat platoons and an engineer platoon were dispatched in full force, nearly fifty heavy trucks, and brought back a large amount of construction materials.

When the materials came back, Tang Zheng immediately greeted them excitedly. He didn't even bother to eat lunch, and started a new round of construction.

After the transporting soldiers had finished eating, they found that the city wall at the south gate had been expanded to nearly 500 meters wide.

After consuming all the building materials, Tang Zheng walked back with a lot of satisfaction.

This 500-meter-wide city wall is like a huge natural barrier, separating the inside and outside of the base.

Just sitting here will give people an infinite sense of security.

After sitting down, Ning Yuwei took out a box of lunch from her arms and handed it to Tang Zheng.

"General, eat it while it's hot. I've been holding it and it's still warm."

Tang Zheng nodded, took the lunch box, and smelled it, it seemed to have a fragrance.

Opening the lunch box and eating, Tang Zheng said to the people around him at the same time: "Go to collect after eating, this time the third row will follow, and bring all the heavy trucks there. It will take half a day to go back and forth, and we must make as much profit as possible." maximize."

"Good general."

Several platoon leaders nodded one after another, then got up and set off.

The three combat platoons and the engineering platoon left, and it was quiet again.

Tang Zheng, who had nothing else to do, led the guards to the place of home he had reserved for himself.

It is close to Guyun Mountain, about two kilometers away from the south city wall.

The terrain here is relatively high. Looking from here, the city wall built on the south side has become smaller.

Near the side of the mountain, there is a waterfall falling from the sky.

Here, even the source of the Fengming River, the mountain streams and the melting snow in the mountains converge into this waterfall.

For thousands of years, a pool with a diameter of nearly [-] meters has been washed out under the waterfall.

Standing on the shore, the water pool is crystal clear, the maximum water depth is about ten meters, and small fish can be seen swimming in it.

There are not too many weeds on the shore, and there are some wild fruit trees. The bursts of fruity fragrance and cool water vapor make people feel refreshed.

Thinking of living here every day in the future, Tang Zheng also felt flattered.

He stayed here to enjoy the leisure time, Ji Yuntian led the soldiers to disperse and check the surrounding situation.

Only Ning Yuwei followed Tang Zheng, walking slowly.

After all, Ji Yuntian is the squad leader, and Ning Yuwei is just a bodyguard right now. Her mission is to follow Tang Zheng and keep her safe.

"Yuwei, go and drive a Willys jeep over, I'll sit here for a while."

"Ok."

Ning Yuwei went to pick up the car, it was not far away.

Tang Zheng was strolling by the pool alone, at this moment, he suddenly saw that there seemed to be something on the waterfall, which followed the water and fell down.

It passed by in a flash, fell directly into the pool, and then followed the current, rushing directly to the Fengming River.

At this moment, Tang Zheng saw clearly.

It was a wooden box.

Tang Zheng froze for a moment, and then heard the prompt from the system Mengmeng.

"Attention, general, there is a supply box refreshed, it is near you, and it is moving away. It is moving away."

Looking at the wooden box walking along the water, Tang Zheng became anxious.

The supply box was refreshed in the river, but he still wanted to run.

Just at this moment Ning Yuwei came back in the Willys jeep, Tang Zheng jumped on it immediately.

"Chase! Don't let that supply box get away!"
