Chapter 279 The Road Paved with Crushed Ore
Familiar scene, different treatment.
When Lin Huai and his party arrived at the border, they were greeted by a group of heavily armed soldiers with smiles on their faces.
These soldiers are all dressed in camouflage, with messy yellow-green patterns on their faces, and a set of green leather armor on their bodies. They either hold mighty broadswords or weird-looking guns in their hands.
At first glance, it is a team that often lives in the jungle.
The precautions are still there, and the inspection is still done. Everyone gets out of the car, and the inspectors use instruments to scan one by one. After confirming that there is no other thing mixed in, the leader of the army shook hands with Yu Jun cordially.
"You still have to work hard this year." Yu Jun smiled.
"Don't say it's hard work or hard work. It's too late for us to be happy to escort our new generation of geniuses in Jiangbei Province." The leading soldier has no airs at all, and is also very enthusiastic.
The two had cooperated a few years ago and escorted the students to the wild together, which can be regarded as a fateful friendship.
When the students heard the soldier's praise like this, they couldn't help but feel a little bit elated, and they looked at the soldier with a lot more kindness.
After the test, the students get on the bus. They have no contact with the wild. If everything goes well, they will complete their itinerary in the bus.
As for the soldiers who were waiting before, naturally they would not go up. They picked up their weapons and lined up on both sides of the two armed buses to serve as guards.
With students in cars and soldiers on foot, something does look wrong.
But the speed of the two is actually almost the same. The strength of the frontier army is generally very strong, and the speed of walking casually can be compared to the speed of a bus.
Besides, it is even more wrong to ask the students to get off the bus. They are asked to participate in the trial, not to die. They stay in the bus and have a layer of protection. If they also get off on foot, it will not only increase the pressure on the soldiers. , the risk of death for students will also increase exponentially.
As for the trees in the wild, how to drive the bus, this problem has also been solved as the armed bus leaves the hills.
There are soldiers leading the way...
The two walked in the forefront with machetes in hand. All the trees and obstacles along the way were cut down by them with their knives.
The driving direction of the bus is very different from the direction the escorts left, but wouldn't such a brutal way of opening the road really cause a riot of ferocious beasts?
Lin Huai was a little puzzled.
Escorts get through the wilderness by reducing their sense of existence, these frontier soldiers,
Do you want to rely on strength to push directly? But these recognitions alone are not enough.
The group leader was here at the beginning.
Fortunately, it didn't confuse Lin for too long. The sound of cutting trees in front gradually became less and less, until at a certain moment, there was no sound at all.
Is this chopping too fast, too far away from them?
Lin Huai looked out and realized that he was thinking too much.
When these soldiers cut down some trees that were in front of them, a dark road with obvious ruts appeared in front of everyone.
The side of the black road is full of vegetation and vines, but there is no trace of plants on the black road, which is extremely clean.
Seeing the black road, the leading soldier showed a smile on his face. He shouted a few times at the two soldiers who opened the way, and the two soldiers came back immediately and joined the team again.
Immediately afterwards, two armed buses drove forward along the black road at full speed.
"Is this crushed ore? You really know how to be flexible." Lin Huai knew what kind of method they used the first time he saw the black road.
In fact, he has several low-cost ways to build roads in the wild in his mind, and paving roads with crushed ore is only one of the relatively high-cost methods.
Paving with stones alone is useless, trees with tenacious vitality will still grow from the cracks in the stones, and crushed ore can solve this problem very well.
Broken ore is an incidental product of spirit ore. Because it is too finely crushed, it cannot be used for forging. However, the special radiation it carries can make plant life die quickly.
There are few plants on the spirit vein, and this is the reason.
So if you are lucky enough to find a large area with few plants in the wild, you must pay attention, there may be a large number of spiritual mines below.
Although the road is clear, the beasts that should be encountered will still be encountered.
The speed of the bus was very fast, and the soldiers were also rushing all the way. Sometimes these small obstacles could not even slow down their speed, and they were killed by the soldiers in the front row who reacted very quickly.
There was a fork in the road, and the second-class assessment bus arrived at the location and turned to the other side. The bus that Lin Huai was sitting in was still going on the same road.
The road is very long, and the ground is full of crushed ore, without any trace of cutting corners.
Lin Huai can fully imagine how much manpower and material resources the Chinese military spent on building such a road.
Not to mention the source of the crushed ore, the construction process must be very dangerous. Without sufficient overall planning ability, it is really difficult to build such a road.
The maintenance of roads requires more cost. It is not completed after the road is repaired. If it is not maintained frequently, it will not take too long for the road to be destroyed by various strange factors.
It also explains why the escorts choose human transportation instead of cars.
With such a high maintenance cost, the degree of damage will increase a little after one use. It is no wonder that the military will let it be delivered to the escort.
Even if it was given, the Escort Organization probably wouldn't be able to afford the high rental fee.
The use of manpower is not much slower, but the cost is greatly reduced, and it only costs a little employment fee.
how nice.
And when manpower is used, it doesn't matter whether you use this road or not. Anyway, you have to go through the dangerous wilderness. Walking on the road is more dangerous than hiding in the jungle.
Time passed in Lin Huai's thinking. They had no danger on the way. The most dangerous time was when the bus was forced to stop and the soldiers in the front row were injured. In the end, the leading soldier joined hands with Yu Jun, and suddenly The fierce beast that sprang out was beaten away.
Not to mention the remaining small attacks. After all, it is the wild, and ferocious beasts will appear on the road from time to time, attacking them.
These ferocious beasts are not very strong, but when they see human beings, they rush up regardless, just like seeing their father and enemy killed.
The hatred in the eyes, even if the body was blown up, still remained deeply in everyone's hearts.
Along the way, among other things, the students' knowledge and courage have indeed increased a lot.
All kinds of ferocious beasts were beaten to pieces in front of their eyes, their flesh and blood flew all over the place, and some of their internal organs flew to the window of the bus, stuck to it, and swayed in the air, very penetrating.
Many students have already vomited once. Even though they are separated by a window, they can still smell the strong smell of blood from the outside world. These so-called geniuses who have never seen much blood, the first time they see this kind of picture, their physical reactions are overwhelming. Very strong.
