Chapter 331 Sail Battleship, New Class in the Wasteland(1/2)

 The night of February 18th, the early morning of February 19th.

This time-staggered point is the same as the heavy snow warning that was issued seven days before the blizzard disaster.

After Soma fell into a deep sleep, a thunderstorm followed immediately.

boom!

Boom!

Like a thunderous roar, or a natural disaster coming to the world, every lightning flash across the sky can illuminate all the darkness below.

No one wants to die!

No one has given up his desire for the New World!

At this tense time, more than 90% of large gathering places are making the final push before the disaster.

Even the lone wolf is trying every means to prepare supplies for going to sea.

On Tieshi Mountain, temporary canopies have been erected to block the raging raindrops outside and provide a stable working environment for the busy villagers.

Pots of hot soup to drive away the cold were also cooked and delivered by the cooks to drive away the coldness of the villagers.

At this stage, more than 80% of the food resources in the hands of the villagers of Hope Village have been taken out and replaced with various tools.

Thirty people are responsible for manufacturing, forty people are responsible for compressing, forty people are responsible for packaging, and finally twenty people are responsible for packaging, counting and placing in the warehouse.

With efficient personnel allocation, there is no need for shipbuilding, work is simple, and the villagers' nightlife is simple and fulfilling.

All the villagers sitting under the awning obviously knew that they chose to make such an extremely risky investment.

But what reassures all the villagers is this.

This major investment was approved by Somo!

The management will make mistakes, make mistakes, and make misjudgments. Su Shen, as everyone, will never do that!

Listening to the sound of rain in their ears, they were full of expectations for how much this batch of energy-absorbing glue could bring back.

Similarly, in this wasteland that is about to be baptized, it is not just the villagers of Hope Village who are full of expectations.

The sight was deflected, and on a moss-covered plain, there was a tribe several times larger than Hope Village, brightly lit in the thunderstorm.

Different from the rush to work in other places, in this shelter, as the lightning flashes across the dark night sky, it can be clearly seen from the faces of these busy people.

excited!

They are wearing raincoats, they are holding umbrellas, their steps are brisk, and there seems to be fire burning in their hearts!

Even though there was heavy rain falling from the sky, it still couldn't stop them from walking out of the house in groups. After identifying their directions and forming a large group, they moved like ants moving.

One hundred meters.

Two hundred meters.

Five hundred meters!

More and more people walked out of the village and joined the team, so that every time lightning illuminated the earth, a "world famous painting" was formed.

Gradually, as less than half an hour passed, even though the ground was muddy and slippery, they still reached the end of the village on the way out.

Turn right along the end and walk about 300 meters, before everyone's eyes, a small hill appears.

The mountain bag is not small in size, much larger than the underground shelter.

The length is over two hundred meters, but because of the height, it is only about twenty meters, and because it is too long, it looks far less majestic than the underground shelter.

And you can see from a distance that this mountain has no roof from the left to the middle, just like the crater, and rainwater pours into it.

But it is this kind of mountain that brings full surprises to everyone who comes here.

"Everyone, please line up, don't worry, the current test has not started yet"

"Hey, hey, Lu Xin, I'm just talking about you! Scrape the mud off your feet. Others, if there is a lot of mud on their shoes, put a plastic bag on their feet before walking in."

On the side of the hill, there is a small door open for three people to enter and exit.

At this time, four guards with rifles stood at the door, shouting at the crowd who came, and these crowds also cooperated very well.

If there is little mud on your feet, wash them while scraping them. If there is a lot of mud on your feet, simply take off your shoes and put them in the storage space, then walk in with bare feet.

Everyone was filled with excitement, just like the supermarkets on Earth that had just opened with 50% off promotions, filling the entrance in the blink of an eye.

He took out the wooden sign with his identity engraved on it and put it in after being verified by the guard. Following this passage, more and more people entered.

But what's surprising is that with so many people entering the mountain bag, they can't hear any noise, as if the microphone is turned off.

What kept them silent was not the rules or the threats, but the people who walked along the deep passage and were in the mountains.

Boat!

Everyone who came here and saw the boat seemed to be possessed. They numbly walked to the open space and sat down quietly.

In their eyes, at this moment, there is only this ship!

This is the next time, they will take the boat to the other side of hope, which is their only help to survive in this wasteland ocean.

This is a big thing that everyone has accumulated their resources to replace, and it is also a good treasure that they have been thinking about for countless nights.

At this time, if Sumo could come to this place, he would definitely scream in surprise!

“Tundra Refuge, awesome!”

Twenty days ago, in Su Chan's video, it could be clearly seen that the Tundra Sanctuary's strength had declined horribly after being separated from Ying Tianlong.

Not only are there only a little over 20 houses left, but the population has also dropped by half, with less than 300 people left.

Under such a decline, even if the Tundra Refuge is an official refuge, it is destined to slowly decline.

In the event of a marine disaster, no miracle will happen, so just like other small shelters, you can either choose to join a large shelter, or you can divide your property and everyone will go their separate ways!

But now, things have changed!

Only half a month later, not only did the village have forty or fifty more rooms, but the population also increased to a terrifying number.

Seven hundred and eighty people!

Although women and children with low combat effectiveness account for the majority of these people, according to the scale, the tundra shelter can definitely be regarded as a medium-to-large shelter!

Moreover, the ship placed in the mountains fully proved their strength.

Unlike the Hope, the boat used by the Tundra Refuge for migration is a wooden sailboat.

Of course, it's not that people in the tundra don't want to use steel to build ships, or that they don't have the relevant technology, but the materials and manufacturing speed!

There is no steel plate provided by the furnace working 24 hours a day, there is no simplified construction process of the modular shipyard, and there is no super efficiency of the machinist working around the clock.

It is simply impossible to achieve a miracle like the "Hope".

Therefore, at the beginning, basically 99% of shelters targeted wooden sailboats.

Looking back at history, China's shipbuilding industry began to lag behind the world only in modern times.

In ancient times, China's shipbuilding industry was always ahead of the world.

Not to mention the huge fleet of battleships used by Zheng He during his voyages to the West, there was also the "Big Dragon Boat" that cruised on the Grand Canal during the Sui Dynasty. It had four floors and a total of 160 rooms.

Even now, some countries may not be able to manufacture such a huge ship.

With the experience inherited from our ancestors, in this competition for survival, the advantages and disadvantages of each country have been clearly revealed.

According to the number of people, any shelter with less than 300 people is called a small shelter.

300-500, it will be called a quasi-medium-sized shelter.

500-700, medium-sized, and 700 and above are large-scale shelters.

Under the natural disaster, in the first round of ship-building competition, with only three days left before the disaster, the battle situation was very clear.

Those small shelters without resource accumulation will form the lowest level of the entire competition level.

This kind of shelter does not have a strong enough leader to form a cohesion, and the villagers who make up the shelter are not willing to trust the management and pay materials to form the village's collective material library.

Naturally, all villagers can only format their own shelter cores and form rafts for migration.

There are many such people in the wasteland, accounting for about 20%. They are nicknamed the "resigned to fate" level by those who do evil things.

They can only rely on luck, and they can only trust their lives to the raft beneath them that may capsize at any time!

And if you let fate go up the level, you will reach the most popular chat in the world.

Fearless Sand Ship Class!

The sand ship is also called "square stern". The shape of the ship is square head and square stern, with a wide deck, deep and small hull, low freeboard and a stern at the rear.

Its shallow draft makes up for the disadvantage of the large resistance between the square head and the water surface. In addition, because of its thick hull, it can be equipped with more masts and sails, and it can also sail against the current.

In addition, the cabin adopts watertight compartments and has good anti-sinking performance, so small and medium-sized shelters that have accumulated some resources have set their sights on this kind of ship.

Thanks to the Ming Dynasty, the ship type used by Zheng He on his voyages to the West was the sand ship type. This type of ship was very well-known in China, and its craftsmanship was spread even more widely.

At present, except for the 20% of people who are resigned to their fate, the remaining 65% of people have chosen this kind of ship. The only difference lies in the material and size of the ship!

Those that can be built to a height of 30 meters or more will be called a golden sand boat, those with a height of 20 meters will be called a silver sand boat, and those below that will be collectively called a copper sand boat.
