Out of the cage

Facing the materials on the list, Wei Keng suddenly felt that he could tear up his previous plan and start over.

For example, in terms of weapons and equipment, Wei Keng originally wanted to completely change his equipment, but after seeing the supplies on the list,

Wei Keng found that after he chose to exchange at the price of 300 days, he was no longer the single choice of "launching a high-intensity blocking war in a short period of time" when dealing with the threat of Ji'an City. Instead, it is possible to carry out long-term attrition operations to counter enemy invasions.

If the goal is purely to defend the base instead of destroying the enemy's vital forces, guerrilla warfare can reduce casualties.

So weapons and equipment have to be reselected.

First of all, there must be heavy firepower, eight 60-caliber mortar tubes-this requirement remains the same, this is what Wei Keng will choose from the beginning, without this, Wei Keng will have to make unconscionable guns. There are three light machine guns. Because of the difficulty in replenishing bullets, it is useless to have more bullets. It is just to solve the problem of whether there is a problem.

But then, the plan to have hundreds of assault rifles was directly cut off and replaced with less and more sophisticated equipment.

The guerrilla warfare environment requires fighting at night, so you can get 50 sets of infrared night vision devices, a set of solar charging panels, um, a small boiler generator set weighing one ton, and a series of power transformation equipment.

As for the main weapon, come 40 high-precision snipers, matching 40,000 rounds of special bullets and spare barrels. The barrel life of this sniper rifle is recorded as 2,000 rounds according to the factory standard.

Almost, it seems, is enough.

...

As for the other carrying capacity, it is actually to prepare for further insurance for survival.

The chemical equipment had to be replaced. The chemical reaction kettle assembled by Wei Keng could only produce more than 20 kilograms of nitric acid a day, and the smell was too strong. Some bonding gaps could only be blocked for a short time with clay and gum.

Now we need to import a set of standardized small-scale equipment, that is, the indigenous equipment of modern technology, with thermometers and pressure gauges on it.

In addition, continuous extraction of plant ash to obtain alkali is too labor-intensive. By the way, a set of ammonia production equipment and a simple Hou's alkali-making facility are required.

Furthermore, a set of gas generators, small open-hearth furnaces for steelmaking, better bullet setters, and steel rolling equipment.

Wei Keng was still thinking about the steel on the rails outside. Although in guerrilla warfare, the focus is on the forty high-precision sniper rifles, which are constantly used in rotation by the front.

But in fact, it is still necessary for everyone to have a gun. What if a large-scale battle is possible? With a gun in his hand, he didn't panic. Now the place where he lives is surrounded by earthen walls. Hearing the movement outside, there is a difference in mentality between those with guns and those without guns. Wei Keng knows best about himself in the production team.

As for the remaining space carrying capacity, Wei Keng asked for a full 4,000 bearing rings, as well as large and small steam engine core components.

The combination of production equipment, personnel, and basic transportation construction is considered production.

Wei Keng knows the small mines in the nearby area, so what he lacks is the transportation capacity. Wei Keng in this plane tried to use a pole to carry the goods. When he transported about 50 kilograms of goods for a kilometer, his shoulders felt like his bones were about to be crushed. up. Later, a wheelbarrow was used to transport 200 kilograms of goods five kilometers away. The unicycle has no bearing ring, and when the friction between the wheel and the front axle turns, it will make a very loud creaking sound. When Wei Keng pushed this thing, he began to miss the construction site cart that he had dismissed before.

The wheel represents the transportation force, and the parts that can withstand the friction when the wheels rotate are the strategic parts of the transportation industry. But those two concave steel rings and steel balls look simple, but only modern industry can make them.

With the transportation capacity, the excavated clods can be easily moved, and the coastal brine production does not need to be boiled in simple iron pots. The efficiency has been improved by a hundred times.

With the transportation capacity, dozens of tons of bricks can be transported from the ruins of the city to the vicinity of the river in the residential area, together with the wood transported by the jungle water, to form a charcoal burning field and a lime kiln.

With the transportation capacity, animals hunted in the jungle do not need to be dismantled and carried down the mountain in a basket on the spot, but can be sent directly down the mountain, the fur is washed, pickled, the meat is salted and dried, the internal organs are boiled, and the leftovers are composted. Handled more cleanly.

After Wei Keng picked something.

After the system confirms, send it immediately.

On the central field, as Wei Keng piled up a large amount of wood in the center of the field, the atmospheric charge in the sky began to condense around a point, and soon gathered into a ball lightning. However, smoke also appeared on the wood, and suddenly appeared However, the heat energy of the flames did not jump upwards with the air flow, but focused on the ball lightning.

The greater the energy in the center of the ball lightning, the space began to distort immediately, as if it was constantly absorbing everything around it. Wei Keng also felt the suction, but he couldn't feel the suction if there was a flash in his consciousness. During this process, it seemed that my body was originally a magnet feeling the magnetic force, but suddenly it became a piece of copper and could no longer feel the magnetic force.

However, the flow of ground matter is still continuing, and a large number of fine particles converge toward the center of the spherical lightning from a range of several hundred meters, and a large amount of gasified matter rises close to the ground.

Twenty seconds later, the spherical lightning split out a beam of light, printing around pieces of three-dimensional space, and soon, the prototype of the equipment appeared in the sweeping of this energy.

This is "teleportation".

Wei Keng: So I sent it like this, um, did I print it out?

...

dimension.

After Bai Linglu obtained the list of supplies Wei Keng needed, he controlled the "teleportation" and reported to it.

Superior Space Department: "Does he know about this arrangement?"

Bai Linglu: "Wei Keng Shuttle is currently undergoing intensive development work, and I will describe the relevant reports to him in accordance with the regulations."

Supervisor Bai Hengqian: "You should inform him now."

Bai Linglu: "During this shuttle, he has a crisis of trust in me—he has a negative resistance to my assignment. If I insert opinions, it will affect his work attitude."

From various perspectives, Wei Keng's current work plan is very beautiful. What he said is to stay here for a while before leaving, but in the eyes of the supervisors, what Wei Keng is currently building on the target plane , is to prepare for long-term stationing.

From accommodation, water use, food reserves, ammunition production, and road leveling.

No matter how you look at it, it is not just a case of staying for a year, it is more like maintaining a lasting intervention force here.

This, from Wei Keng's personal thinking, there is such a possibility that his return may be disturbed, so in order to prepare for the worst case of one in ten thousand, plan as long as possible.

And the longer Wei Keng's preparations, the more Bai Linglu in the space bubble couldn't help but want to push this task to a long-term perspective. And some of her thoughts still have to wait for the decision of the Space-Time Administration.

In the eyes of the Time and Space Administration, the combination of Wei Keng and Bai Linglu in the plane exploration team is really a bit weird. And the other is planning to explore the plane with guessing at the side, and now, even with a little concealment.

Call it a conflict, but there is no conflict between the two parties. It did not happen that in some teams, both the traversers and the monitors were at odds with each other and were directly replaced. I want to say that the cooperation between the two parties is happy! How many time travelers and supervisors have friendships that surpass colleagues, and Wei and Bai are completely ordinary netizens.

After reviewing the situation on the Pandora plane again, the higher-level space sent a message to Bai Linglu after a serious discussion: "Observe his loss in this battle. If the battle loss exceeds one-tenth of his total, then arrange him immediately return."

One-tenth is very light. During Wei Keng’s consciousness-increasing process, only one-third of the casualties are considered to be injuries. The Space-Time Administration has been very conservative towards Wei Keng.

Bai Linglu: "Got it, but if his consumption is extremely low? Then is it possible..."

Superior space: "Observe first, and we will make arrangements for the follow-up."

For example, the content of the dialogue between Bai Linglu and the higher-level space, in fact, there is no such thing as returning the materials after being delayed. Wei Keng will be able to return early in a dozen days.

The current delivery facility is not actually an interplanetary transmission. Wei Keng has lived here for more than 80 days, and his consciousness has already calibrated the properties of all the material particles here. With these calibrations, the material transmission just used the energy of the original plane to complete the printing. . No need to consume much information enthalpy.

This is equivalent to sending a water bottle to the moon at the beginning, which consumes a lot of fuel and the life of the launcher. Solidified in the solar furnace, there is no need for spacecraft transmission at all.

120 tons of materials is not a transmission limit, but the information printing scale that can be mobilized within Bai Linglu's authority.

This, in some special missions of the plane exploration mission, the inspector can theoretically announce the battle mode and assign missions to the traversers.

...

As for the earth, in the gravitational well of East Asia No. 14, it is in the interdimensional space created by the state of high energy.

Yuan Yue asked Luo Hongxing, another veteran traveler, "What do you think of this situation?" The situation here refers to the fact that Wei and Bai showed signs of a "two-headed dragon" in their decision to open up the Pandora plane. .

Luo Hongxing: "Currently, our side is engaged in a war, and the problem with the new team is not serious. After this conflict, try to replace him with a monitor."

Yuan Yue said: "To tell you the truth, Wei Qiang, the child of Lao Wei, was raised by us. And this Wei Keng, hey, he was a bit boring when he was young."

Luo Hongxing pointed to the situation on the plane of Pandora: "He is not easy to explore and do things in this plane, so ah, the dragon gave birth to nine sons, and the nine sons are different, but after all, they were born by dragons, not rats. nest of

Yuan Yue smiled but stopped discussing this issue with him, but said: "Go down, be careful."

Luo Hongxing: "Don't worry, I've been to the plane of Pandora. As long as the life radiation there is suppressed, there is basically no danger." Speaking of this, he looked at Wei Keng's current living situation again: "I After going down, the passage to the war zone will be opened.”

...

On the plane of Pandora, Wei Keng's gathering place with a little fireworks, in a big house built of a certain piece of soil, Wei Keng's representatives in various working groups communicated with each other here.

Determined that the conflict was inevitable, Wei Keng began to make up lessons for the various forces on this plane.

In the open space in the center of the gathering place, a sand table made out of yellow mud was placed in the center. This is a landform map of 200 kilometers around Zhuyujiao, 40% of which passed through Wei Keng's team. The actual observations were fact-corrected.

The first group of Wei Keng surrounded the large sand table and analyzed the political situation in this area with the information obtained by the investigators.

Human power is currently in continuous decline, and the major city-states are self-governing in various places. No, they should be half-fledged. There are still several hegemony-level cities in the entire human world. The East Asian continent seems to be a tributary system. Several secondary cities defend the main city along the great river. For example, the Yangtze and Yellow River basins maintain this state-like form.

As for the cities in Fujian, Yue and Zhejiang, they actually wanted to pay tribute. Because the core city of Dahe District is the place where human technology is best preserved before the Great Destruction, and it has many more advanced biological and electronic technologies. Tribute can get these valuable technical support. However, the land and sea are blocked by various genetic communities, making it difficult to pay tribute here.

In addition to technical exchanges, culturally, in a city like Ji'an City, the internal mayor also needs to be appointed by the Bangguo Center. After all, it has only been one hundred and fifty years since Pandora completely swallowed up East Asia. Everyone still needs a legal order. .

The strength of the region relies on the legal system, and beast masters can be recruited. As for the central city, the data of the beast masters outside the actual control area are collected as much as possible through the model of giving the area legal authority.

Wei Keng drew a key point to this message.

First: It cannot be the case that the hegemony city that is ticked out after hitting Ji'an City sends forces to interfere. There must be an upper limit for conducting military operations by yourself.

Second: It cannot happen that some people from Ji'an City go to other areas to recruit forces to join forces, so - one's own military operations must also have a certain bottom line, at least the opponent must be exhausted, and there will be no more military risks to oneself plan.

...

Military preparations are being made, and economic research is also being done.

In the newly built "airtight" dark room 600 meters away, there are grids piled up with bricks and tiles, and the fungal culture medium composed of broken wood chips is placed in the grids.

Here, Wei Keng's economic research team looked at the bunches of mushrooms and thought again, can this thing be a staple food?

This little mushroom is the economic foundation of the current city-state.

Human beings are no longer the controllers of the earth's ecological communities in the past. Without vast farmland to supply food, they can only look for other ecological niches.

So eat wood? Of course, it can't be eaten directly. In Pandora's field, the fungal organism's variants can process wood within two to three days. Quickly decompose wood into organic matter that is easier to decompose. And humans were still indigestible to fungi before the Pandora era. Therefore, how many meals can you eat with Flammulina velutipes? Such a stinking joke. But human beings have a life radiation effect, and under this radiation effect, the bacteria in the human intestinal tract and humans are in the same genetic community.

In the early stage of the catastrophe, when the hungry and unbearable humans began to dig out termite caves for food, they gradually discovered that they could completely digest the fungus. This is where the gut bacterial community takes over the genes of the termite's symbionts.

Today, such substances have become the main food for humans in the regions south of the Yangtze River in East Asia.

More importantly, this kind of grain is good for storage, and the raw materials are easy to get. The city-state's crushing truck crushed the surrounding trees, and the wood chips mixed with spores waiting to develop were packaged with quicklime, and when they needed to be eaten, they were taken out and watered, and fungal spores could grow.

This kind of sawdust block is also called "strength block", because "strength block" will grow "strength".

As for the edible fungus spores mixed in the "Jinkuai", the people of Southwest China "see villains" (poisoning) many times and test them out. The so-called "strength" is a homonym for "bacteria" in the southwest dialect.

When Wei Keng heard that the mushrooms on the block had a variety of amino acids and tasted very good, he couldn't help salivating.

The system quickly reminded: No matter what kind of 'jinzi' it is, it cannot be served cold.

Of course, Wei Keng is very clear that the energy density of edible mushrooms is very low. In addition, with the current productivity, there is a lack of salt in the city, and there is no onion, ginger, and garlic. The mushrooms eaten by ordinary people are definitely not as delicious as they think.

As a person who grew up in the industrial age, with rich food and clothing, he may regard certain foods that people in this era have eaten for a long time as treasures, and people in this era may just want the ladies of the 21st century to be in the cafeteria. Pick out and discard the fat, boil out lard and mix it with a bowl of rice.

At noon, the two research groups each handed over a detailed report plan.

Wei Keng from the kitchen brought more than twenty hairy crabs weighing one catty and three large black fishes from the river. According to the distribution system in the Wei Keng cluster, these things are currently for the brainy self.

Of course, the two groups only ate one-third of the food, especially the hairy crab that only took the first bite. When the meal did not feel full, Wei Keng from the physical labor group was called to line up according to the severity of the work. Divide it clean.

Eat mushrooms, not cold salad, and I don’t eat mushrooms
