Chapter 1409: harassing and repairing the road 1)

Road construction is a complex project.

Geological survey is the first step, to determine the direction of the road and conduct overall planning. Generally speaking, this must be carried out one or two years in advance. With design drawings, plan demonstration, and confirm that there is no problem, construction will start.

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

The powerful German convoy was eager for roads and they could not wait. At the same time, in order to stimulate the Poles and Belarusians, and to attack those guerrillas, the road construction was too rush this time.

However, although there was no detailed planning, they did not build it randomly, because there was a cement road here, which was expanded according to this cement road.

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

Now, based on this original road, expand it!

The first step is naturally to lay the roadbed. After all, high-level roads require a solid roadbed.

"Everyone cheer up!" In the forest, Old Paul stood on a big rock and shouted to the people working: "Only our efforts today can we get a better life tomorrow!"

No matter what they did in the past, they were workers, ordinary citizens, and businessmen. Now, they have all become the main personnel of road construction, and their tools are also very simple.

Most people’s tools are shoulder poles, which are good. There are forests everywhere. As long as you get a suitable wooden stick and use a rope to put them on both sides, you will be shoulder poles. At both ends of the shoulder poles, you will carry baskets woven with branches, and the ones placed in the basket are stones.

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

This is a physical job. Many people have swollen shoulders and blood blisters on their feet. For them, this is simply a torture like purgatory.

However, they have no complaints. Their home is gone. They must adapt to their new life. If they cannot build this road quickly, there will be more work waiting for them. They must rebuild a city. It can be said that within two or three years, they will repeat their work today.

They have to adapt.

Most of the Poles worked as porters, and some of the Poles were divided into two teams, one went to the mountains to mine ore, and they were closely monitored by the Germans because they wanted to use explosives to blow up the stones, while the other was logging in the woods.

The original road was only three meters wide, not even enough to accommodate two cars. The new road was the design standard for two-way four-lane, 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 off the trees, they just use these trees as tools or build simple houses for them to live in.

These days, they have been resting almost in the open air. Fortunately, the weather is good, and if it rains, they will be in a very embarrassing position, so they must be able to cover the rain.

"This is really unfair. We have to log wood and build houses. For those Belarusians, just build roads is enough. How can we fight over them!" A Belarusian complained while holding a hand and tug-of-war.

There was no chainsaw at all, and they had no mechanized tools at all. They could only hold a long saw blade in their hands to saw off the big tree. This was quite slow work.

"This is a test given to us by God. We must accept it. Simon, let's be patient. We can only wait for our chances if we endure it first." Alex, the one who saw the saw blade opposite, said in a low voice.

The wood chips kept flying everywhere, and finally, the saws of the two of them sawed the last bit.

The trunk began to tilt, and Alex just looked up and stopped moving.

Trees have souls. Saw-off trees is equivalent to ending their lives, so before they die, they will even take away one or two lives, which is to kill people.

For experienced lumberjacks, it is very easy to judge the direction of a big tree. Don’t turn your head and run. If you can’t win, you must first look at the direction of the big tree falling and run towards the side where it falls, and then you can run away easily.

For those who saw the tree, if you see the downward direction of the big tree clearly, don’t move.

"Boom!" The tree fell down and made a collision sound with the ground, just like a moan before death. Alex's face showed a relaxed expression: "Even if we fail, we are still building our own house now, at least we won't be wet in the rain, right?"

As he said that, he picked up a small hand saw. When the big tree was sawed down, he needed to saw off the branches and other branches, leaving only the trunks, and then breaking the trunk into wooden boards, which could be used as material for building a house.

The big tree here is very thick, and two people can't hold it together. This tree can build a house.

Humming the tune, Alex looked relaxed.

"Bang, bang!" At this moment, suddenly, two crisp gunfires came from afar. As long as you listen to the gunfire, for experienced people, you can know what is shooting.

Mosinnagan Rifle! Alex frowned immediately, exactly the same as he had speculated. After his side began to build roads, the so-called guerrillas would definitely come to make trouble for his side!

Most of the Poles were ordinary people, and when they heard the gunshots, they immediately panicked!

The person carrying the shoulder pole threw away the shoulder pole, and wanted to hide it, but the person was digging the roadbed, and the person threw away the shovel and pickaxe in his hand, and was still making lunch, and even directly pressed the big pot beside him on his head!

After the gunshots, the woods returned to silence again.

No guerrillas appeared, but these two gunfires delayed the Poles for about half an hour!

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

If you were just in the south and then from the north, you would harass it for half an hour, then you might as well stop building roads.

A few bullets can disrupt your own road construction deployment!

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

"Dare, what's there to be afraid of!" Simon said: "But there is no weapon at all. Last time we asked for a rifle with the Germans and wanted to set up a road guard team, but the Germans didn't agree."

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