Doomsday Bunker Upgrade

Chapter 192: Test drive and explosion

A set of snow crawler wheels was quickly manufactured and placed on Chen Xin's workbench.

Looking at the four snow track wheels made, Chen Xin hadn't said anything yet, but Ding Ning and Li Yulong were already eager to try.

"Brother Xiao Chen, how about taking it out for a try? Now that this thing is made, should I always try it, right?" Li Yulong said tentatively to Chen Xin with a little expectation.

Chen Xin thought for a while, then nodded and said, "It's okay to try and see if there is anything that needs improvement. Just use my car to try it."

Seeing Chen Xin's consent, Ding Ning and Li Yulong couldn't wait to run to the door of the refuge alone, holding two snow track wheels.

Seeing the two running up, Chen Xin and Qin Lan glanced at each other, couldn't help but smiled, and then they walked up together.

The installation of the snow track wheel is very simple. You only need to place it on the ground, put up two boards, drive the car up, and use the weight of the wheel to snap the wheel into the groove on the snow track wheel to complete the installation.

So it didn't take long for the four snow track wheels just completed to be installed on the wheels of Chen Xin's car.

Now that he agreed to try out the new equipment, Chen Xin didn’t talk nonsense, and asked Ding Ning and Qin Lan to put on protective equipment for going out. He also put on protective clothing in the maintenance room, put a pistol in his pocket, and brought it with him. With a breathing mask, he opened the door of the refuge, got into the car, and prepared to drive out.

Qin Lan took the seat of the co-pilot, while Ding Ning and Li Yulong squeezed into the back seat together.

Seeing everyone fastened their seat belts, Chen Xin started the car and drove outside the shelter.

The snow at the door had already collapsed partly because of Li Yulong's subordinates carrying supplies, and this just provided a ramp for Chen Xin's car to go out.

If it is a car without snow track wheels, facing the snow that is nearly half a meter deep at the door, even if there is a ramp that has basically been stepped on, it is not good to go up.

But with snow track wheels, everything is different.

Because the snow track wheels are installed on the wheels, the original chassis of Chen Xin's car has been raised a lot, which undoubtedly increases the passage of vehicles through rugged roads or roads that are easy to sink into like snow. ability.

The baffle installed in front of the snow track wheels can help the wheels press on the snow surface, so as not to directly sink.

As the wheels turned, the track was driven, and the front of the whole car suddenly lifted up, riding on the snow slope, and then drove out with a burst of high-speed engine rotation.

"This climbing performance is good!" Since Li Yulong sells SUVs, he naturally understands cars. Just now, when three people were sitting in the car on the uphill, it was so easy, enough to show this car. Of climbing ability.

Chen Xin couldn't help but nod his head: "The climbing ability of the track is better than that of the tire, the ground area is larger, the friction is greater, and it is not easy to slip."

However, although he drove the car out, Chen Xin did not continue to drive forward immediately. Instead, he parked the car at the door and said to the three people in the car: "Wait for me, I will go down and check it. The door is closed."

With that said, Chen Xin got out of the car, closed the door of the refuge with the remote control, and turned on the flashlight at the same time, checking the conditions of the snow crawler wheels after they were installed on the four wheels of his car.

Naturally, there was no problem with the installation, and the climbing performance just now was very good, which naturally made Chen Xin very satisfied.

But the problem is not without it. After all, the snow track wheel is just a modification, not a complete snow track assembly, and there is still a sinking situation on the snow.

Although the degree of sag was not much, only a few centimeters, this still made Chen Xin aware of the problem.

Compared with professional snow track components, the grounding area of ​​snow track wheels is still not large enough, and it is inevitable to cause sinking.

Of course, compared to tires, the performance of snow crawler wheels is already very good, and this degree of snow subsidence does not have any impact on the use of snow crawler wheels. It can still run very smoothly and will be smooth. The car is firmly supported and won't be stuck in the snow.

After checking the connecting components and the chain hanging under the car, Chen Xin returned to the car after seeing that there was no problem.

"Axin, there is no problem, right?" Qin Lan, who was sitting in the co-pilot, asked Chen Xin with concern.

"The crawler is still not wide enough, and it's a bit sag, but it doesn't affect the use." Chen Xin shook his head and explained the situation to Qin Lan. Then he looked back at the two people in the back seat and asked them: "Since it is a test car. , Where do you think you should drive?"

"In this environment, it's almost the same everywhere, right?" Ding Ning felt that there was snow everywhere, and it made no difference where to test the car.

But Li Yulong had a different opinion. He thought for a while and said, "Why don't you drive to the high-speed rail station? It's relatively empty over there, so you can try the performance, and even if you want to test the rugged road, there are mountains between here and the high-speed rail station. , Crossing the mountain is the best test."

"Over there at the high-speed rail station?" Chen Xin hesitated, seeing Qin Lan also showing approval, so he didn't say anything, stepped on the accelerator, and drove the car toward the original high-speed rail station.

There was originally a road connection from Chen Xin’s home to the high-speed rail station. Before it snowed, Chen Xin walked to the vicinity of the high-speed rail station and found a group of survivors.

But as the temperature drops and the snow accumulates on the ground, the original road has long been invisible, and all you can see is a piece of snow with a little undulation.

Driving on the snow, the snow track wheels run very smoothly, and there is no other feeling except that the noise may be a bit louder than using only tires.

But the feeling of experimenting with a new thing still made Li Yulong and Ding Ning sitting in the back seat very novel and excited. After Chen Xin drove the car to a relatively empty place, the two also took the opportunity to offer to experience driving plus What is the feeling of a car with snow track wheels?

Chen Xin didn't care. After stopping the car, he and Qin Lan switched to the back seat, and Ding Ning and Li Yulong were seated in the front.

In order to compete for who to drive first, Ding Ning won and was able to hold the steering wheel.

Looking at the two people laughing in the front seat, Chen Xin couldn't help shaking his head. If it were before the disaster, such a scene is very common, but with the arrival of the end of the natural disaster, he has not gone out like this with friends like this for a long time. After that, it has been a long time since I heard such laughter.

However, although the inside of the car is still very similar to the past, the outside of the car is still cold and dark with icy snow.

Although relying on the memory of the past, the statue not far away that has not been completely submerged by snow can tell that this is the square in front of the high-speed rail station, but it is clear that the square in front of the station has been completely buried under the snow. .

Even the statue of a dozen meters high on the side has been damaged, leaving only a pedestal protruding from the snow and a dilapidated statue.

At the high-speed railway station in the distance, only a shadow standing in the wind and snow can be seen, and this shadow has collapsed in a corner, as if it was caused by a meteorite impact.

The high-speed rail network is an important national transportation network built by Yanguo after the new century. It has greatly facilitated the travel of Yanguo people, and it can even be said that it has changed the way people of Yanguo travel.

It’s just that compared to traditional railways, the high-speed rail network built by Yanguo is more dependent on daily maintenance and the support of the modern civilization system. But all this collapsed with the fall of the end times, and the high-speed rail network also lost the most important thing. The support becomes useless.

The operation of the high-speed rail is extremely dependent on electricity. After all, the high-speed rail train itself is an electric locomotive and cannot operate without electricity.

Therefore, the entire high-speed rail network now only has rails and high-speed rail stations. The original electric locomotive does not have enough power to supply the entire high-speed rail grid in today's environment, and there is not enough manpower and material resources to maintain it. The entire high-speed rail network.

Chen Xin doesn't know how other places are. Perhaps some places can run one or two sections of high-speed rail lines because of their needs and their own good conditions. However, it is clear that the high-speed rail stations here in this city have been abandoned.

After all, if you only use railroad tracks~www.ltnovel.com~, the original old railroad tracks are already enough. There is no need to spend more energy and resources to maintain the operation of the high-speed rail station.

Especially because of the high-speed railway station in this city, because it is built in the suburbs, the surrounding residents seldom talk about it, and there is not enough underground space for renovation, unless a new shelter is built on site.

Therefore, for the city government, it is not difficult to make a choice and judge the abandonment of the high-speed rail station.

Looking at the abandoned high-speed rail station outside the car window, Chen Xin couldn't help sighing, sighing for the high-speed rail network built by Yan Country at the time, and also for the collapse of prosperity and civilization.

Just when Chen Xin sighed, there was a sudden muffled sound in his ear, as if thunder had struck.

This made him quickly wake up from the sadness just now, and looked at the other three people in the car, and Ding Ning, who was driving, also hurriedly stopped the car.

"What happened?" Li Yulong was a little surprised, and hurriedly looked out the car window, hoping to find out what happened.

"Isn't it because the meteorite fell? It's quite common now. I can encounter it every few days in the city. It should be..." Ding Ning was somewhat optimistic, thinking that it should be the impact of the meteorite falling. .

However, she hadn't finished speaking, and the second muffled sound came again.

Now Ding Ning and Qin Lan's expressions have changed. They obviously have reacted. This is not the sound of a meteorite hitting, but the sound of a bomb exploding.

"It's a bomb!" Ding Ning yelled out, and quickly turned his eyes to Qin Lan and Chen Xin in the back seat, and asked, "What shall we do?"

"Drive back, don't worry about anything." Chen Xin glanced at Qin Lan and said.
