Chapter 1409： Harassing road construction

Road construction is a complicated project.

Geological survey is the first step. Determine the direction of the road and make overall planning. Generally speaking, this has to be carried out one or two years in advance. Once the design drawings are available, the project will be demonstrated and construction will be started when there are no problems.

Now, this first step has been omitted, it is very simple, because time is too late.

The powerful German fleet is eager for roads. They can't wait. At the same time, in order to stimulate the Poles and Belarusians, as well as to combat the guerrillas, this time the road is built too quickly.

However, although there is no detailed planning, they did not build it indiscriminately, because there was originally a cement road here, and the expansion was carried out according to this cement road.

The so-called cement road, of course, is not a hardened pavement constructed with a material such as cement. There is no such road in Belarus at all. It is a mixed road of water and mud, which is quite difficult to walk.

Now, on the basis of this original road, expand!

The first step is naturally to pave the roadbed. After all, high-grade highways need a strong roadbed.

"Fight up!" In the forest, old Paul stood on a big rock and shouted to the people at work: "Only our hard work today will lead to a better life tomorrow!"

No matter what they were doing before, they were workers, ordinary citizens, and businessmen. Now, they have all become the main workers in road construction, and their tools are very simple.

Most people’s tool is a pole. Yes, there are woods everywhere. Just get a suitable wooden stick and put a rope on both sides. It is a pole. The two ends of the pole carry a basket woven from branches. The basket is placed inside. Yes, it is a stone.

The stones were mined from a nearby hill, a distance of more than ten kilometers. Now, from the hill to the road construction, almost all of them are Poles. They are like ants, picking the stones from the mountain.

This is a physical task. Many people's shoulders are worn and swollen, and blood blisters grow under their feet. For them, this is simply a torture like purgatory.

However, they have no complaints. Their homes are gone. They have to adapt to the new life. If they can’t build this road quickly, there is more work waiting for them. They have to build a new one. The city is good. It can be said that within two or three years, they will repeat their work today.

They must adapt.

Most of the Poles were porters, and some Poles were divided into two teams. One team went to the mountains to mine ore. They were closely monitored by the Germans because they used explosives to blast the rocks. The other part is logging in the woods.

The original road is only three meters wide, which is not even enough to accommodate two cars. The new road is a two-way four-lane design standard, and the land-based width must be 26 meters!

The original road must be widened, so they have to cut down the trees on both sides of the road. After cutting down the trees, they just use these trees as tools or build simple houses for them to live in.

In the past few days, they are resting almost in the open air. Fortunately, the weather is good. If it rains, they will be very embarrassed, so they must be able to provide shelter from the rain.

"This is really unfair. We have to cut wood and build houses. For those Belarusians, only one thing is needed to build roads. How can we compete with them!" While pulling a hand saw, a Belarusian People complained.

There is no chain saw at all, and they have no mechanized tools at all. They can only hand a long saw blade with two people to saw the big tree, which is quite slow work.

"This is a test given to us by God. We have to accept it, Simon, endure it. We must endure first before we wait for our chance." The one who saw the saw was Alex, with his two arms Kong Wu. Powerful, while pulling the saw blade, he whispered.

The sawdust kept flying horizontally, and finally, the two saw the last point.

The trunk began to lean, and Alex just looked up and didn't move.

Trees have souls. Cutting a tree is equivalent to ending its life. So before dying, it will even take away one or two lives, which is killing people.

For experienced lumberjacks, judging the direction of the big tree is very simple. Don’t turn your head and run. If you can’t win, you must first look at the direction of the big tree and run to the side of the tree. Ran away.

For those sawing trees, if you see the direction of the big tree, don't move.

"Boom!" The big tree fell and made a crash with the ground, like a groan before dying. Alex's face showed a relaxed expression: "Even if we failed, we are still Build our own house, at least it won’t rain, right?"

With that said, he picked up a small hand saw. When the big tree was sawed down, he needed to saw off those branches, leaving only the trunk, and then breaking the trunk into planks, which can be used as The materials for building a house.

The big tree here is so strong that two people can't hug it together. This tree can build a house.

Humming a little tune, Alex looked relaxed.

"Bang, bang!" At this moment, suddenly, there were two clear gunshots in the distance. As long as you listen to the gunshots, an experienced person can know what is shooting.

Mosin Nagan Rifle! Alex's brows suddenly wrinkled, exactly as he speculated. After he started to build the road, those so-called guerrillas would definitely come to trouble him!

Most Poles are ordinary people. When they heard the gunshots, they immediately panicked!

Those who carried a pole, threw away the pole, and wanted to hide their buttocks, were planing the roadbed, threw away the shovel and pickaxe in their hands, and were still cooking lunch, and even directly buckled the cauldron on the side. On the head!

After the gunshots, the silence returned to the woods again.

No guerrillas appeared, but the two gunshots delayed the Poles for half an hour!

"These guerrillas will really help their own people!" Alex said, "I guess in half an hour, they will definitely come again in the north."

If it was just in the south, and then from the north, if you harassed it once in half an hour, then you would simply stop building the road.

A few bullets can disrupt your own road construction deployment!

"Simon, dare you go with me to fight these guerrillas?" Alex asked his companion beside him.

"Dare, what's not to dare!" Simon said: "It's just that there is no weapon at hand. Last time we asked the Germans for rifles and formed a road protection team, the Germans did not agree."

"Weapon? The hand saw in our hands is a weapon, go!"
