Chapter 205 Shield Tunneling, Phase III Planning



In Tua Ao, you can lose your wallet, but you absolutely cannot lose your keys.

Especially if the key has the words "Restricted" or "Security" engraved on it, or has a serial number, the key duplication shop will not make a copy even if you pay them; you must first go to the police station to get a certificate.

It's much more complicated than buying a few dollars' worth of metalwork downstairs in China, while when Xia Yu was in school, he did all the metalworking internships by hand.

Now that I've gone abroad and learned some special skills, I don't even need to use my hands anymore. With some small tools, I can open simple locks in seconds, and complex ones just take a little more effort.

On a dark and windy night, when all was quiet, Xia Yu entered the closed area of ​​the West Gate Tunnel.

There were no cameras, no combination locks, no smart access control systems, just old-fashioned mechanical locks. After opening seven or eight doors, he finally arrived at the abandoned No. 3 working shaft.

After navigating through layers of accumulated debris, we finally found our target at the deepest part.

The Herrenknecht tunnel boring machine, with a diameter of 15.6 meters, is as tall as a five-story building. Xia Yu's 4,000-lumen headlamp can only illuminate a part of this behemoth.

The outer casing was covered with a thick layer of dust but still looked okay. However, the cutter head, motor, main bearing, screw conveyor, and hydraulic motor were all nearing the end of their lifespan.

If domestic resource recycling is done well, there might be an incentive (profit) to dismantle, cut, and sell the waste. But here in Tu'ao, they just dump it and that's it.

The tiny machine vanished instantly and reappeared in Garage No. 3.

On the way to Merben, after several days, the system had not yet completed the maintenance of the F-111 G.

“He’s bad, Mr. Alexei, you two have been in contact for a long time.”

They'd definitely be even less wealthy, so they might as well open a Cantonese restaurant and also offer roast meats.

The F-111's fully extended wingspan is 19.2 meters, while variable-sweep wing aircraft can also fold their wings, with the maximum wingspan not shrinking to 9.75 meters.

The other C-type is a landing pad; let's save the work time for that little guy first.

That's how white-collar workers in Europe and America operate. I'm the one who does that. I just take on small projects, and everyone who comes along has to say how awesome I am.

If you don't have the opportunity to buy a commissioned ship, you can prepare it and turn it into a naval-themed military museum, and you can even open a restaurant downstairs.

So what is vacation? It interferes with our earning of wages and allowances.

There's no way around it; we can only watch and enjoy it from afar.

Xia Yu said that the use of a slow-motion approach was necessary, as the chaotic Afica had no combat missions.

Yes, although it is an engineering machine that moves on the ground and in the mountains, it is still classified as a land vehicle by the system.

[Estimated remaining man-hours for preparation: 496.1]

As a food connoisseur, if you run out of money to a certain extent, retiring from the food service industry and opening your own restaurant is a perfectly viable option!

Another one, without a proper but small-scale industry, is that some of Yue Tai's funds, which can be made public, have also been obtained through legitimate channels.

It might be less, because aircraft carriers have a lower rate of breakage; they just appear to be heavier in tonnage.

On my way back from returning the car I rented in Queensland to the rental company in Perth, I received a phone call.

Group 2 will return to Kongluga for rest and recuperation before completing the most grueling test.

Of course, some hydraulic components, cables, oil pumps, and solenoid valves won't break; these have all been taken away as spare parts. Therefore, the tunnel boring machine in front of us is not the complete machine that is nearly 90 meters long.

Retreating from Afica would be a very unusual business decision. Xia Yu doesn't have the magnanimity of someone like White Hat, especially since Jihuo Defense operates on an elite strike model.

The delivery of the first batch caught Xia Yu completely off guard.

"Bad guy," Xia Yu called him.

[Project: Herrenknecht Bella]

Old Yu can make most of the special breakfasts, but there's no such thing as a proper morning tea, so you still have to come to a restaurant to eat there.

It's important to reduce the use of raw materials. It's all going through the company's accounts. Xia Yu's private engineering budget has no lower limit. After all, just one cave sub-base, digging a nearly 400-meter tunnel, and leveling the passage to the other side of the canyon would cost hundreds of millions of dollars.

Yue Tai thought for a moment and then said.

Touching my chin with a thoughtful expression, I gave Shao Mi a task.

The specific reference should not be taken from the movie "Battleship".

“Mr. Sherlock, you are Alexei.”

"I understand. You'll go back then."

"Whoosh~~"

After clearing away the signs of intrusion, Yue Tai left the working shaft connecting the two tunnels (which are separated in both directions).

Before they even heard the news, the two groups of seventeen people visibly perked up.

I haven't communicated with the other PMC companies, but I'm willing to expose myself to them. I must investigate Alexei's request.

Without a system, there will be very few problems. The rock mass of the cave is mainly basalt, which is used as aggregate to print shield tunnel segments and concrete mortar. The main focus is on using the original ingredients to save the smallest amount of consumable expenses.

The Anka Heavy Mechanized Infantry Battalion, which I helped build, and the special forces trained by the British, are qualities that my country's army lacks.

After nearly a week of sailing, the cruise ship finally docked at the Port of Perth.

The worst off were Lyman and Kohler; our tank commander hadn't even started teaching in Inner Mongolia yet, and they were already waiting for our two teaching assistants.

Back in the city before dawn, Xia Yu went straight to Chinatown and found a Cantonese restaurant for morning tea.

That's why the F-14 Tomcat's wings can be folded and it can be taken off the plane; also, it's much lighter than an aardvark.

At the upcoming aviation and defense exhibition, there will be relatively little official participation, since even though PMC has equipped itself with fighter jets and manned aircraft, most of them are second-hand or used.

It wasn't that the client was poorer than Busa; the problem was that Xia Yu had no other plans, and that time he might have made an exception and exchanged goods for labor.

In addition, land-based (cave-based) steam catapults cannot be launched at the same time, due to the nature of the technology reserves and experiments.

The husband-and-wife teams and the big restaurants were given up, while the low-end catering and business banquets were taken care of. That piece of the pie could only be taken by Xia Yu himself.

I can only imagine, I'd definitely be given an aircraft carrier, it would take a long time to prepare.

In comparison, both the number 2 team, which had been in Perth all day, and the number 1 team, which had just returned from Queensland, looked somewhat worn out due to the low-intensity training.

After agreeing on a meeting time, Xia Yu hung up the phone.

That was what Xiang Yu said back then. Xia Yu thought it had a bad meaning, so he didn't go back slowly. But my employees don't apply that approach, so it's time to give us a long vacation.

After finishing the first braised chicken feet in the steamer, Xia Yu, who was still dreaming about his future business, wiped his mouth, paid the bill, got out of the car, and drove straight towards the port.

Open a chain of laundromats?

No matter how you look at it, it's a dead end, especially since Xia Yu doesn't have the system's support, which saves almost half the cost.

“Honey Badger, he went to call Pallas’s cat over for you. You have some questions for me.”

[Fragmentation rate: 80.6% (can be repaired)]

Another strange thing about Xia Yu is that the system traces back the weapons and consumables of the printed vehicles. What about this aircraft carrier?

As Kongluga develops, fewer and fewer Chinese will come to mine and do business, and the Chinese catering industry will still have little potential.

The new ones are all cheap and good, they're all terrifying profit devourers, not to mention they're sold individually.

Yue Tai clicked to directly select "Preparation".

Yue Tai hasn't yet come up with a preliminary idea about this; whether to go through with the marriage depends on the right opportunity.

Andrei was equally disappointed. I was temporarily sent to Europe, so I was able to go back to China to reunite with my wife and son.

That's not even as impressive as an armored train. The gauge of that track is much smaller, while the internal space of that tunnel boring machine is equivalent to an eight-lane road.

The aircraft carrier for the Seventh World War is too hard to find and too much in line with Xia Yu's ordinary needs, but battleships and U-boats are not an option!

"We've found them all, all seven have been loaded onto the cargo ship, and we're ready to send the first batch over."

Xia Yu asked directly.

Xia Yu received seven or seven offers of cooperation, but none of them were a good fit for us.

It's time to hurry up and go to the wedding. Anyway, everything that needs to be prepared has been prepared. It will affect the delivery of the Weasel S30, but there's no abnormal opening of the museum yet.

With only two days left in the month-long intensive training, the museum and company's frontline staff, who had not yet completed basic self-defense and physical training, were returning to their home countries for a final rest.

Returning home in wealth and honor is like wearing brocade at night.

I'm feeling really good now that I've successfully sold this Su-24.

The goods were few in number, so they could be delivered in one shipment. Alexei's shipment was also delivered in two batches.

"You guys have been working for almost a month straight, what's keeping you so busy? Have you found all these fighter jets?"

The few empty sections in front of the tunnel boring machine are so narrow that they can fit two or eight double-trailer trucks.

"Yes, you're a busy person. After finding all the old fighter jets you need, I haven't dared to bother you."

"In this industry, there's no such thing as a friend in every field. You don't have a single friend who's also in the PMC industry and has no intention of leaving the Afica market. You'd like to get to know you and learn from your experience."

You just need to come with us and buy a plane ticket for a direct flight.

It's not just a project that serves as the first link in the eighth phase of my military museum plan, completing the land, sea, and air forces.

I can't go on a family trip... never mind.

The difficulty level is too low, making it suitable for company-wide air-ground coordination, and for three combat teams to develop operational synergy.

In the morning, the cruise ship departed the port amidst the sound of its horn, heading west.

In reality, by the time Xia Yu returns to Afica from Bali, my tunnel boring machine will definitely be broken.

Alexei then changed the subject and asked her to do something else.

Others can guarantee they'll lose money, but if I don't make any, it's just a matter of how much I'll make.

I moved closer to the tunnel boring machine and stroked its body with my left hand.

It's painful to sell your grandparents' property, but the Baku had already been sold by Xiao Mao to the Eighth Brother and became the Vikramaditya.

Of course, even if we wanted to go back to China, Xia Yu couldn't take us to Dubai so we could transfer there to Serbia.

Merbau is 4,000 kilometers away from Perth, and flying is the slowest option. But since I managed to get to my destination in less than a day, I decided to give myself a break and take a cruise for a semi-circular voyage.

During the month of our intensive training, although Jihuo Defense suspended its business, the boss's satellite phone remained accessible.

Those are all without specific business operation cases.

"What a coincidence! You'll be attending the exhibition too."

The leisurely life underwater relieved Xia Yu's tense nerves caused by training and returns, and also allowed me to return to work in the worst possible state.

That's a typical bad Hollywood movie. The plot is terrible, but the special effects are awful. The battleships of World War II defeated the alien warships, turning science fiction into fantasy. But when the main guns fired simultaneously, Cold Blood was finished.

Even though Xia Yu's cooking is terrible, I can hire someone else!

It was this Russian arms dealer, Xia Yu realized immediately.

We will gradually head to Afica within two weeks to finish our official work.

That's a topic that's hard to circumvent. Such a small base can always be powered by the battery matrix, right? My system maintenance and the transfer of electronics (charging) is very slow, but for the base to operate normally, a continuous and stable energy source is the most basic requirement.

When my net worth exceeds one billion US dollars, I will hire a Cantonese chef so I can order whatever I want to eat.

In the past, some of the jobs we took on involved coordinating with the armies of Busa and Nelobi. Even if we defeated the toughest opponents, it was still difficult to turn the remnants of the defeated army into victories.

For example, the Yak-141 that Xia Yu longed for, although it was not put into service, was tested in retreat vertical landing on the fourth ship of the Qifu-class, the Baku.

"Any problem? You were attending the Bali defense exhibition last week, how about we meet here?"

The ferry tickets for that route weren't sold out, so Xia Yu used my identity to buy a ticket that included a car and drove off the ferry.

Life isn't like that; Xia Yu still needs us to create wealth!

Johnny and the other three of us are veterans. Except for Paul, who doesn't have any PMC-related work, the other four of us either had jobs before entering service or were doing other work.

With all eight elements of land, sea, and air combined, I can transform Bogo Village, Nekale Town, and White Point Wharf into an open-air military-themed park integrating all eight elements.

Time is passing by little by little, not because the system's maintenance progress bar is moving too slowly.

Nearly 500 working hours, or about 3 weeks, it really is a huge little thing!

As we all know, carrier-based aircraft are the most important weapon of an aircraft carrier, so it's great that they can definitely be printed.

"Beep~~"

"Beep~~"

Given that people only come here once every few years, the discovery of the abandoned tunnel boring machine is a long-ago paranormal event. How could it possibly be connected to the area beneath me?

Acquiring these prototypes from Osros was easier than acquiring that guy.

Alexei spoke insincerely, offering flattery.

Defense exhibitions are gatherings of military and police forces from various countries, as well as arms dealers, PMC companies, and mercenary organizations, especially equipment and defense exhibitions like the one in Bali.

Xia Yu has yet to find a suitable target. For example, the Golden Oak and White Foot Alliance, who fought side by side in Panaka, withdrew directly from Central Afica because they had eaten the fat meat of White Top Hat and because digestion was good.

If there's no one to cooperate with, it would be a good idea to find a smaller PMC company to subcontract the work.

There's a way to save on diesel fuel; an 8400 kW cutterhead would require a small generator to power it.

Similarly, even before Lao Ke and the other three of us, all nine instructors wanted to slowly integrate into the small family of Jihuo Defense.

Therefore, while excavating, Xia Yu also had to secure energy for the cave sub-base.

To make matters worse, neither of them receives a special teaching allowance. Sergei and I are on paid leave, but we only receive our basic salary and no additional allowance.
