Chapter 5001
The five helicopters took off almost simultaneously and flew toward Ten Thousand Armies' base.
After an hour's flight, the helicopter flew over the base.
From the air, it could be seen that Ten Thousand Armies' base was a huge construction site with buildings under construction and many transportation vehicles everywhere.
There was an airstrip that had already taken shape on the east side of the base.
Charlie could not help but feel a sense of relief when he saw that the construction of the entire base was in full swing.
Ten Thousand Armies was currently his strongest striking force aside from himself, and it played a significant role in every step that he would take in the future, especially in his battle against the mysterious organization.
Therefore, he hoped that Ten Thousand Armies' strength would continue to grow and improve, and his goal for the first stage of the development of Ten Thousand Armies' strength was to be able to counteract all the dead soldiers belonging to that mysterious organization.
As for the mysterious and unpredictable British Lord, Charlie intended to keep him for himself and defeat him completely using his own strength.
The helicopter soon slowly landed in the core area in the center of the base.
There was a cubic building that was about twenty meters high on the south side of the core area. There was also a huge opening that was permeable from north to south and a track that was much more narrow than normal train tracks passing through it.
It could be seen from the opening that in the interior of the building was a huge lifting device that was made out of steel frames with a steel cable that was as thick as a baby's arm hanging in the middle.
Porter introduced to Charlie, "Mr. Wade, this is the main shaft of the underground fortification. Its current vertical depth is about one hundred and twenty meters. The first phase of the underground fortification is currently being excavated zontally at this depth. The set of lifting devices is the cage, equipment, personnel, and excavated rocks which basically come in and out from here."noveldrama
Having said that, he pointed at another similar cubic building in the distance and introduced, "That one is the auxiliary shaft of the underground fortification, and the depth is the same as that of the main shaft. It's mainly responsible for ventilation and drainage of all the underground working faces."
Charlie nodded and said, "The current spy satellites and drones are too advanced, and the ground facilities can't even escape Google's satellites, so the underground fortifications will be the top priority in the future."
Porter immediately said, "Don't
worry, Mr. Wade. More than sixty-five percent of the current infrastructure budget is allocated to underground fortifications. In the future, the underground
fortifications will not only meet]. I
the personnel's needs and the storage of materials, but they will also shoulder most of the daily training needs. At the same time, we will build a safe underground energy storage and backup energy system which would be enough to deal with most emergencies."
As he spoke, the lifting device under the cubic building lifted up a huge square steel cage.
Interestingly, this steel cage had two levels. The upper level was for people and the lower level was for a rail mining car.
After the steel cage came to a complete stop, more than a dozen men wearing helmets who were standing on the upper level came out of the steel cage and walked from the second floor to the first floor.
The workers waiting on the first floor walked directly into the steel cage at the lower level, fixed the traction rope on the mining car that was filled with gravel, then pulled the mining car along the track to the loading and unloading dock that was hundreds of meters away. The workers at the other end then pushed another empty mining car into the steel cage.
The steel cage was subsequently lowered into the ground again.
After watching the entire process, Charlie could not help but frown and say, "Porter, the turnover efficiency to rely on this kind of cage to transportpeople and material up and down is too low, right? Only a few dozen people can go up and down at one time with a few tons of goods. Even if it only takes a few minutes a trip, the efficiency during an emergency is not sufficient."
Porter hurriedly said, "You're right, Mr. Wade. These two shafts are actually configurations in the construction phase at present. The underground fortification is only in its initial stage, so these two shafts are used to carry out underground construction."
"However, our next step will be to build a hub building on the west side of the airport runway covering an area of over a hundred thousand square meters. A two-lane inclined shaft that can be used for vehicle access will be dug directly from the interior level of the hub building then."
"The inclined shaft will lead directly from the ground level of the building to the underground fortifications, just like a tunnel with a steep slope. Once it is completed, all personnel, vehicles, and equipment will be driven up and down from her The overall turnover speed will increase geometrically and convenience will be no different from that on the ground."
