Volume 4: National Craftsmanship Chapter 99: Tianhe Mountain's Second Line of Defense
Shen Jin used redstone (graphite) to connect all the industrial TNT. This is an excellent material for transmitting signals, but the reserves have always been limited. Firstly, this thing is not widely used and is rarely found among the people. It is only used more in the smelting industry and the electrical industry. Secondly, the official storage capacity of this material is also relatively small. Even if Shen Jin exchanged it with government officials, he did not get enough for him to squander. Thirdly, Shen Jin himself has not yet dug up the graphite mine.
Therefore, when arranging [Industrial TNT], we always choose the "series" line that saves [Redstone]. That is, through a part of the [Redstone], the signal is transmitted to the first few dozen [Industrial TNT], and after they are detonated, the subsequent explosions will be like firecrackers. If they are arranged densely, the explosion speed will be very fast. The first line of defense just arranged in Tianhe Mountain has been modified by everyone's magic, and the coverage area has been widened. The distribution of the explosion power is even, and the overall situation is reasonable, except!
The explosion was not as fast as the centralized placement, which resulted in the current result on this 10-kilometer "Death Road". Halfway through the explosion, the zombies reacted. The zombies, led by the third-order Z zombie, released the energy of another mysterious 3~! 4-order giant zombie and held on for half a minute, propping up the "T zombie eggshell". Using the tough skin and meat of the T-shaped swollen zombie, they resisted the impact of a large amount of [Industrial TNT] and saved half of the zombies. "So... I can't save materials this time, use them hard! After using them up, I will ask the Tianluodiwang branch of H Province to reimburse them. If they don't reimburse you... Don't even think about taking a piece of equipment from me in the future!"
Shen Jin gritted his teeth and said, he was determined to stop the tide of zombies this time!
Since he had the [Steel Storage Box], Shen Jin himself has become a mobile giant warehouse. Any commonly used materials can be taken out at any time, especially materials with relatively small stocks such as [Redstone]. He carried them all with him. When Shen Jin and his companions flew to the second line of defense of Tianhe Mountain, Lao Wu was already arranging the battlefield. The terrain here is different from that of the first line of defense. This used to be a national highway, with Tianhe Mountain to the north and villages to the south. Several roads leading into Tianhe Mountain merged into a highway here. In order to develop the Tianhe Mountain tourist area, City S specially built a highway. A national highway instantly brought several villages that were originally in the ravines to take off. They Relying on homestays, farm stays, and the transportation industry, they made a lot of money. The village became prosperous, and small villas were built around it. The broad national highway that led the surrounding villages to prosperity was the second line of defense that Shen Jin and his team had to defend, because... there was only one route here, and it was also the last checkpoint in Tianhe Mountain that could gather the zombies together. After passing here, countless small paths below appeared, and the zombies could run around freely. To be honest, Shen Jin was not very confident about the third line of defense , "So... the second line of defense, we must bury them here!" Shen Jin pondered for a while, "Except for the huge zombie that is more than 30 meters tall..."
This way, it is much more rigorous.
After all, Shen Jin felt that it was difficult to kill that kind of zombie through conventional means.
He adjusted the [Industrial TNT] buried by Lao Wu and others, mainly by scattering [Redstone] and connecting each [Industrial TNT] with [Redstone] to ensure that after he pulled down the [rod], the signal could be transmitted to each TNT at the same time, clearing the area instantly!
If the giant zombie and Z3 zombie are not given time to react, the zombies will surely not keep turning into eggs and moving, right?
As long as they step into the explosion range, they can be taken away in an instant!
Hmm...the plan worked!
Shen Jin scattered all his [Redstone] there. In order to respect the zombie tide, Shen Jin buried all the remaining [Industrial TNT] here, a total of 3,000 pieces!
Originally, he planned to leave 1,000 for the third line of defense, but Shen Jin was afraid of any further accidents, so he used them all. After blowing them to death, he no longer needed the third line of defense.
While Shen Jin was frantically scattering [Redstone], the captains were not idle either. Although the battle just now was very fierce, fortunately most people were not seriously injured. Only more than 20 people were attacked by the zombies on the wall. Fortunately, with the coordinated protection of the full set of armor of the Craftsman Soul, they only suffered minor injuries. Now they have all taken the Senzu Beans and are sitting on the city wall to rest. They will be able to recover their combat effectiveness in a while.
The other extraordinary people and captains were arranging the terrain. This national highway is uphill, which means that when the zombie tide comes, they will attack from above. This is very advantageous for the defenders. Shen Jin and his team saw this position on the map at a glance. They built this wall on the highest slope of the national highway to block the zombie tide from a high position. "Lao Meng, Tong Zhen, Sister Tong, the three of you give the [pebbles] to me and Lao Wu's people, and then go to the mountain next to us to dig some stones." Li Zhe made one "speed bump" after another on the ground, distributed in a staggered manner.
The three captains were very happy: "Okay!"
The [round stones] I brought with me are not enough, but fortunately there is a mountain nearby so there is no shortage of them.
Wu Yong and his team were also setting up "speed bumps". By setting up a row of boulder-high roadblocks, they formed speed bumps for the zombies. This certainly couldn't stop the zombies, but if they tried to climb over them, it would waste time and the team would slow down. "That's right!" Wu Yong said , "Bring some more wood. That stuff can be used as speed bumps and it can also burn..."
The three captains' eyes lit up!
right!
The "speed bump" does not need to be very strong, wood will do the trick. Moreover, as the alien rockets rain down, the wood can be ignited after completing the task of decelerating, and become fuel, thus burning the tide of corpses!
Half an hour later...
After completing the deployment, the people were on the 100-meter-high city wall, ready for battle. They didn't dare to deploy too many troops because the distance between the two lines of defense was not far, only 5 kilometers away. Taking into account the time it would take for the zombies to sort out the team and cross the remains of the city wall, half an hour should have passed. However, Shen Jin and his team were high above and had not seen any trace of the zombies yet...
"Strange? Did it change direction? Was it scared by the explosion?"
Shen Jin took out his intercom and asked the wind-type extraordinary person in charge of observation in the sky: "How are you? Are you okay?"
Logically speaking, if the zombie tide changes direction, the team members responsible for observation in the sky will definitely report it immediately, but there has been no news so far. Either the zombie tide is still moving , or... something has happened to someone!
"Uh... Boss, I'm fine. I'm floating in the sky!"
Shen Jin breathed a sigh of relief, then asked in confusion: "Where is the zombie tide? Why haven't they arrived yet?"
"Oh! The zombie tide has stopped for a while and is now heading towards our second line of defense. However... they are moving very slowly, as if... they are deliberately suppressing their speed!"
"Hmm? Are there any other anomalies? Where's that giant zombie?"
"The giant zombie is in the center of the team, with two reproductive bodies. There is nothing else unusual. It is expected to reach our second line of defense in half an hour!"
"Well, continue observing and report every 10 minutes!"
"receive!"
After Shen Jin hung up the intercom, he felt something strange. There must be something wrong!
"Strange...why are the zombies slowing down?"
Yang Ao came over and asked, "The zombies have slowed down. Is it because they are scared by our bombing? Or... too many zombies are injured? It has slowed down the overall movement speed?"
"Maybe...right?"
Although Shen Jin had a bad feeling, what Yang Ao said was quite reasonable, "No matter what... even if another giant zombie comes, I will leave these 500,000 zombies here!"
Since there was still half an hour left, Shen Jin was not in a hurry. He asked everyone to rest on the spot and recover their strength.
Suddenly, Shen Jin looked at his bored niece and suddenly thought of something, "Mo Xiao, come here, I'll give you a good task..."
After finishing speaking, Li Moxiao Ka Ziran's eyes suddenly lit up, "You... follow me!"
She flew away with the 20 or so slightly injured people.
