Chapter Seventy-Five: Arms Expansion (2)

The old lady didn't want to see her son bullying her grandson!

With a painful look on his face, he looked at the fat boy who was trying to climb his father's trouser leg. He doesn't hug you anymore, what are you still close to? ~~~ If you don't say it, the bond of blood sometimes doesn't make sense!

Although the little fat man can't speak, the child understands it in his heart! This is someone supporting themselves! So the climb is even more enjoyable.

"Mother! Did you wake up? ”

Governor Zhang Dadu picked up his son and hurriedly greeted the old lady.

"If I don't wake up, you don't even know what to bully my precious grandson!"

The old lady took the fat boy with his teeth and claws, and said angrily.

In this observation house, all the female dependents of the Zhang family live in it. At this time, the sister-in-law also walked out of the bedroom with a fat boy who was sleeping heavily.

"His second uncle! There you are? ”

"Oh, sister-in-law! He's still asleep, why did you take him out? ”

"It's okay! I'm about to wake up. If you wake up and find that there is no one, you will howl endlessly! ”

In fact, the relatives of the Zhang family, including the maids, have all drunk high-concentration "ginger syrup", and they should not have been left for quarantine observation. But sometimes those in high positions can't help themselves, so that the second master has to set an example.

The exemplary role of representative figures still has a lot of weight in the herd psychology of the Chinese people. When a large number of displaced people saw that Governor Zhang's family had to go through this process, they also stopped their uncooperative rebellion.

You don't see the reception camp of 500,000 people, there is no chaos at all, people come and go in an orderly manner every day!

Every day, there are new citizens who have just arrived in the camp, and there are also new citizens who have completed the distribution and received the newly distributed necessities of life, and they are ~~~~~~ rushing to their new life in trucks

Of course, there are also very few people who were escorted to the execution ground by the law enforcement team of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

The Hami camp has received 2 million people entering Xinjiang, although most of these personnel are low-end human resources, but this has finally solved the labor shortage of Governor Zhang.

Today's Xinjiang is full of construction sites, and workers are being recruited everywhere. So you don't have to worry about finding a job!

When the Zhang family's moving convoy arrived at their beautiful home on the banks of the Ili River, they were all stunned!

I saw a community by the mountains and rivers, on a gentle hillside, full of two-story red tile villas with their own characteristics.

On the slope of the high altitude in the distance, there is a lush coniferous forest, and the slope extends to the bank of the Ili River, which is a flat grassland that has just returned to green, and the crystal clear Ili River meanders to the west, disappearing in the green shadow of the distant mountain, during which there are several flocks of white sheep, and from time to time there is the echo of the hollow valley of "Ba~Ba~~~~".

Blue sky and white clouds, green mountains and clear water, stone walls and red tiles, just like a quiet oil painting! It makes people can't bear to break this beautiful silence for a long time!

"Oh! ~~~ It's home! ~~~Come on! ~~~”

The bears rushed to the soft green grass with joy.

This residential area is a residential area specially selected by Governor Zhang for the core personnel within the group. Some technicians who have volunteered to become Chinese nationals have already moved in.

Just like Bellman, director of Xinjiang's No. 1 Arsenal, the chief and deputy commanders of railway construction, many foreign technicians, commanders of the three group armies, and cadres at and above the division level of the corps and ministers of the Metropolitan Governor's Office all have their own villas here.

Although many people are not in the local area, their family members have already moved in.

Zhang Dadu has established many such communities in Xinjiang, all of which are prepared for the group's expanding follow-up personnel.

Of course, living in such a community are the core figures of some groups and high-end talents in scientific research.

Although Xinjiang's population policy can increase the population in the short term, it is still a number. That is, to restore to the level before the suppression of the rebellion by Zhang Dadu.

But the number of troops he has to recruit is 10 million, and the population base at this time is still 108,000 miles away!

Although it is difficult to increase the population base, as long as he insists on encouraging fertility, he will deceive and plunder the population. It was barely possible to achieve a population base that met his conscription requirements during World War II.

In terms of the land area of Xinjiang Province, it has no problem feeding a population of five or six hundred million.

There are two major basins in Xinjiang Province, the Jungar Basin and the Tarim Basin. The total area of the Tarim Basin alone is more than 400,000 square kilometers.

You know, the North China Plain covers an area of only 300,000 square kilometers, but it feeds more than 300 million people. Unfortunately, these two basins are all occupied by desert and are unsuitable for human habitation.

Assuming that even if it is habitable, there is one of the biggest obstacles, and that is the problem of water to feed such a large number of people! Xinjiang is an arid, landlocked province with an extreme shortage of freshwater resources.

Although the second master learned from the information of later generations that the Tarim Basin has 10 times the underground freshwater resources comparable to the Great Lakes of the United States and 12 times that of Lake Baikal, this huge amount of underground freshwater resources cannot be used.

Because in the 90s, when Chinese scientists were exploring for oil in the Taklamakan Desert region of the Tarim Basin, they were ecstatic when they discovered a huge amount of fresh water resources underneath for the first time.

But why didn't the Chinese government make a big deal about developing these freshwater resources?

That's because this underground freshwater ocean is rich in carbon dioxide, like a giant carbonated drink, and if the aquifer is destroyed, the carbon dioxide in it will be released into the atmosphere, and the consequences will be unimaginable.

Some time ago, when engineers were designing national defense projects with their brains, they also induced the second master's brains.

He thought of a brother with a big brain in later generations, and imagined covering the Tarim Basin with a sealed cover, and then developing the water resources inside.

Since then, the two have been obsessed with the idea of developing Xinjiang's water resources.

So, if we also follow him Zhang Erye to open a big brain hole, the difference between the second master and the benevolent brother who opened his brain in later generations is that the second master's assumption is:

What will happen if water is not pumped from it, but poured into it, turning the Tarim Basin into a huge freshwater lake? The brain hole is a little more "big" ~~~

If the Tarim Basin were to be filled with water, it would become the world's largest inland lake, larger than the Caspian Sea.

The Tarim Basin covers an area of more than 400,000 square kilometers, with a distance of more than 1,400 kilometers from east to west, which is longer than the Beijing-Shanghai Railway.

Surrounded by high mountains such as the Tien Shan Mountains and the Kunlun Mountains, the Tarim Basin is almost a basin surrounded by completely enclosed mountain ranges.

(You can search for a topographic map of Xinjiang to find out.) )

If the water is irrigated at the elevation of the lower outlet on the east side of the basin, the deepest part of the lake may reach a depth of 500 meters.

This is still considering too much irrigation, for fear of causing the eastern lows to overflow and impact the low-lying areas of the Gansu corridor.

If the Tarim Basin does become a lake, the sheer volume of the lake will completely change the climate of the northwest and northern regions.

Due to the relatively closed terrain surrounded by mountains, the evaporated water vapor here will not spread to the west, north and south across the Kunlun Mountains and Tianshan Mountains.

It will mainly spread to the low-lying areas in the east, that is, along Gansu, Shaanxi, Shanxi, Henan, and Shandong.

This will completely change the arid climate of China's great northwest and make China's vast northwest region a land of fish and rice with a humid climate.

Therefore, it will be the whole Chinese civilization that will benefit.

It will become a new source of water in the northern region of our country, and the desert areas in the north will become oases under its influence, and become a place of hope suitable for human survival and development.

However, later scientists have also calculated that if in an instant, the Tarim Basin has really become a "Tarim Lake" with a storage capacity of 76 trillion cubic meters comparable to the Caspian Sea, because there is no stable water source that can feed it.

And because it is located in the warm temperate climate zone of 37 ° ~ 42 ° north latitude, and the northwest and northeast dry and hot wind is the mainstay, the evaporation is much greater than the rainfall, only the annual rainfall of the Taklamakan Desert in the hinterland is less than 100 mm, but the evaporation is as high as more than 3000 mm.

The annual evaporation of the entire basin is as high as 300 billion cubic meters, which is equivalent to the annual runoff of one-third of the Yangtze River.

According to this calculation, the "Tarim Lake" will be evaporated in about 250 years.

And it is impractical to transfer water from the Yellow River or the Yangtze River here.

So the scientist's conclusion is that this brain hole is a bit too big! ~~~~~~

But ~~~ hahaha!! This brain hole is so good! The second master looked up to the sky and roared! I love these people with huge brains so much.

Otherwise, his second master would not have thought about how to develop Xinjiang!

So another super "stealing" plan was formed in his mind ~~~ Isn't it that 12 fresh water from Lake Baikal is needed! For the second master, that's a small case! He Zhang Erye has unlimited storage space!

Isn't it the flow of the Yangtze River that evaporates one-third every year! He Zhang Erye can replenish the water source once a year or every five years! How simple!

As a result, the Xinjiang Governor's Office issued an inexplicable military order to the First Group Army stationed in Xinjiang:

(1) The entire Xinjiang border garrison shall strictly seal off all land and shore passages and prevent all foreign personnel from entering.

(2) All garrison units in southern Xinjiang shall send personnel to measure the altitude of each unit and each residential area, and all residential areas below 1,800 meters above sea level shall be relocated to an area at an altitude of 2,000 meters within three months.

(Because the lowest point of the Tarim Basin is 800 meters to 1,300 meters above sea level, if fresh water is poured into the basin at a depth of 500 meters, the entire lake level will reach about 1,800 meters above sea level.) )

(3) Residents who do not relocate shall be forcibly removed.

This order must not be mistaken!

After the order was issued, the second master said goodbye to his family and explained to Zhang Muzhi that he wanted to buy a batch of industrial equipment so that he could take care of his family. He plans to come back quickly, and solve the obstacles to Xinjiang's development in the next 100 years in three months!

The first destination of his trip was the United States, because Lake Superior, the world's largest freshwater lake, and the Great Lakes, the richest freshwater region, are in the Americas.

He Zhang Erye robbed the Americas because he was addicted to ~~~~~~
