The opening of this road not only shortened the traffic distance between the two bases by 90 kilometers, and shortened the time spent on the road from a full day to 5 hours, but also greatly improved the safety factor.
On this road, the average speed of transport convoys and escort chariots can be increased to seventy or eighty kilometers. This speed can leave most of the war beasts behind. The few who can catch up are not a threat to the team.
If it is a transport type Ark, it will be faster, it can shorten the trip to one and a half hours.
Chu Jungui was already conceiving the design of the transportation type ark. This design was not difficult. It only took a few hours for the chip and the base mastermind to complete the design.
The new Ark is slightly smaller in size, with a width reduced by 5 meters, but it is equipped with several more hundred-ton anti-gravity engines than the old Ark. This allows the new Ark to effectively reduce weight, making it faster, more agile and capable of carrying more weight. On the premise of ensuring self-protection capabilities, the transport-type Ark can carry a full load of up to 3,000 tons and has a speed limit of nearly 150 kilometers per hour.
Chu Jungui has not returned to the Shadow of Doom for some time. This is the first large-scale federal base he has completely occupied, and it has special meaning to him.
The shadow of doomsday seemed a bit deserted at this moment. There were only more than 6,000 people left in the base, only half of the peak number. The soldiers coming and going looked listless, with tired or bored expressions on their faces. In some corners, Chu Jungui even saw a few people gathering together to stare at the sky in a daze.
The base mastermind will assign tasks to everyone. There is only one Cambrian in Shadow of Doom, but it is adequate for simple material mining and processing, as well as personal task assignment. But these idle warriors aroused Chu Jungui's vigilance, which probably meant that they already had a way to deceive the mastermind.
Compared with deceiving the mastermind, Chu Jungui was more worried about their mental condition.
He immediately opened his personal terminal and summoned Wilson. Soon Wilson rushed over, and Chu Jungui took him to patrol the base while asking about the current situation.
Wilson said: "I have modified the mastermind's evaluation criteria. Rest within a certain limit, 30 minutes in the morning and afternoon every day, will not be considered inactive. Our soldiers need to rest now."
"Now?" Chu Jungui caught the key word.
"Yes, it's needed now." Wilson emphasized the word now again.
"Why?"
"They are all good young men." Wilson pointed to a few people sitting in the distance and said: "In the past, we had to face the beast tide all the time. We wished we could make good use of every minute and every second. If we relaxed even a little bit, we would To face death. At that time, as long as they had enough to eat and a place to sleep, no one would complain. But now the beast tide is no longer a threat, at least on the surface. Without an imminent crisis, people will relax and will There is a need for rest and recreation. Man is not a machine after all.”
Chu Jungui nodded and said, "Then what do you need here?"
"I hope to build an additional 1,000 standard barracks so that four boys can live in a room instead of eight officers and more soldiers crowded into a small room."
The standard barracks refers to the standards of Planet 4, not the alien standards of the Federation or the Tang Dynasty.
The standard planetary development barracks in the Federation's prosperous Tang Dynasty had constant oxygen and constant pressure. Each room had one person, but occasionally there were rooms for two people. The room is equipped with a complete entertainment system. Every ten barracks are a unit. The unit has an independent fitness area, kitchen and leisure and entertainment area. Generally, ten units will be equipped with a medical station and a weapons station.
Living in a standard camp will not feel any different from the home planet, but the standards of Planet 4 are another matter.
On Planet 4, the only consistent standard is oxygen and medical care. The room was originally intended for 8 people, but only officers can enjoy this standard. Even this standard was proposed by Wilson and strongly promoted by Li Ruobai, otherwise it would be impossible for the experimental body to use its production capacity in such a place.
Now Wilson actually wants to raise the bar again, albeit very limitedly.
Taking 100 standard barracks as a whole, each barracks will consume approximately 10 points of production capacity after being fully equipped with necessary facilities. In other words, the total of 1,000 standard barracks will consume about 10,000 points of production capacity. In the past, this was the production capacity of the base for a whole day, but now the total production capacity of the two bases has exceeded the 100,000 mark. After the road is opened, the higher synergy effect will increase the production capacity by nearly 10,000 points.
In other words, Chu Jungui could completely improve the living conditions of Shadow of Doom with just one day's extra income.
It may seem like a small thing, but the subject still considered it for a considerable amount of time: a full minute. Chu Jungui can handle hundreds of things in one minute.
It's really a small thing, at least for now. But as the actual owner of the entire legion, Chu Jungui needs to consider all aspects. What he must think about is whether there are more important things that require these 10,000 points of production capacity.
Among other things, 10,000 points of production capacity can produce an additional 100 tanks. Even in an S-class beast wave, 100 tanks can defend a considerable frontal defense line. Even now, this is not a negligible amount. Chu Jungui only had a total of 700 tanks at his disposal, so the defense of two bases and various escort tasks were quite tight.
But other tasks, such as building transport spacecraft, expanding the size of the orbital space station, transforming the Ark 2, building more power furnaces, including opening the road to the shadow of doom this time, are all more urgent and important tasks. .
Now the people around Chu Jungui are gradually showing differences. Although both were generals from the Federation, Wilson was much more comprehensive than Roland. Roland is better at leading medium-sized troops in battle, and his combat experience is focused on landing operations on planetary surfaces.
Wilson has more combat experience, but it is not limited to combat. Not only can he command the landing squadron, he is also proficient in the management and construction of bases. He has also received professional training in planetary exploration.
But even Wilson only focused on the Doomsday Shadow Fortress, and at most he thought about Base 2. And Chu Jungui still has to think about starship battles in deep space. In a sense, the success or failure of the war zone determines the survival of the small army on Planet 4.
Different locations naturally lead to different conclusions. So after Chu Jungui carefully considered all possible options, he said: "Okay."
