Chapter 562: Central Asia
Huang Zhong is now old, but his body is already healthy, and there are no muscle atrophy, age spots, etc.
People in their sixties, in the ordinary people at this time, who do not use crutches are considered to be of superior physique.
"Greetings Commander-in-Chief!"
"I've seen the Commander-in-Chief!"
All kinds of military salutes and all kinds of fists, and the military habits of the soldiers on both sides are still different.
"Everyone, you have worked hard, from the Western Regions all the way to the west, you haven't slept well, Huang only came to visit you in person today, I'm really sorry."
Huang Zhong was polite, and was invited to the main seat by Ma Chao.
After taking a seat, all kinds of snacks were already served, and Ma Chao ordered to kill sheep for hospitality, and Huang Zhong did not refuse.
After sitting for a few minutes, Huang Zhong said: "It's not a secret, I came here today in person, but I came here with the order of my head of Chenhe country, and I want to discuss some things with the king of the Western Regions." ”
"Commander-in-Chief, please."
Ma Chao was a little nervous, this Yang Xi shouldn't persuade himself to belong, it was really difficult to deal with.
Ma Chao's expression was already in Huang Zhong's eyes, and he also knew his thoughts.
"Don't worry, the king of the Western Regions, this time our head of state will bring only benefits to the Western Regions."
"Commander-in-chief, don't sell it, let's talk about it first."
Huang Zhong cleared his throat and said: "Here's the thing, our head of state wants to build a railway track from Delhi City, India, and enter Karamay City from Green Ridge. At present, Karamay to the Great Western Regions City has been opened to traffic, and China's Delhi City to the original Dawan State railway track, is also under construction, is expected to open to traffic by the end of this year. The problem is that the section from Dawan City to Daxiyu City has to pass through the territory of your country, especially the checkpoint set up by your country in the Green Mountains. The Führer's intention is to ask your country to take charge of the construction of this section. Of course, at the expense, our country is willing to give double. ”
When Ma Chao heard this, this had nothing to do with the matter of attachment, since the other party came to discuss the construction of the railroad track, it was not intended to force himself to surrender, thinking of this, Ma Chao breathed a sigh of relief.
Huang Zhong continued: "Also, the head of state said that if your country is willing, my Chenhe country is willing to contribute funds to build an airfield in the Great Western Regions City. After the completion of this airport, China will also hand over its aircraft manufacturing technology and your country, and there is only one condition, that is, China's aircraft can have regular flights to and from all places, and the income from the operation of this airport will belong to your country. ”
"The airfield? Aircraft manufacturing technology? Ma Chao was blinded by this heavy punch.
It is said that in July this year, a kind of plane appeared in Chenhe Kingdom, which can carry dozens of passengers, and travel between Chenhe City, Shanghai City, Heilong County, and Daxianbei City. At the end of the year, it is said that a larger plane will be launched, and it will be able to reach its two overseas counties. The county of Ireland and the county of Britain are tens of thousands of miles apart, and it only takes one day to get there, how terrifying it is.
At present, this aircraft can only be built in Chenhe country, even in several Western countries, and it has never appeared.
Ma Chao looked at Huang Zhong with burning eyes, Huang Zhong stroked his beard and said: "I, the head of Chenhe country, have always said that once the aircraft manufacturing technology is ceded, I will never hide my secrets, and the head of state said that as long as your country agrees, in the future, my Chenhe country will even place an order to your country to manufacture aircraft, and allow your country to sell aircraft to other countries or any business in the world, and will not interfere." ”
"Your Majesty, you must not agree. Beware of being deceived. It is said that the plane needs electricity to take off, we have the technology, there is no electricity, but how to make it? ”
The person who jumped out to speak was Ma Dai, Ma Chao's brother.
As for the general Pound, he has not spoken, which is the reason for his stable character.
Huang Zhong smiled: "General Ma Dai is too worried. If your country agrees, our country can send a technical team to help your country build a large-scale power station on the Tarim River, and guide your country to build this power generation throughout the country. ”
Ma Chao was really stunned.
This treatment is directly the treatment only available in the counties within Chenhe Country.
And this Chenhe country didn't even mention the matter of dependence.
Ma Chao didn't believe that pie would fall from the sky, so he tentatively said: "Your country has no other requirements except for the airport and the railroad tracks?" ”
Huang Zhong shook his head and said: "Part of this is the reward of your country for assisting in this military operation, and the other part is a gift of friendship, and our head of state has not asked for anything else." ”
Ma Chao looked back to explore the national teacher Zhou Budo and the general Pang De, Zhou Budo nodded and said: "This matter sounds good for my Western Regions country, if there are no other conditions, the king agrees." ”
Zhou Budo and Pang De both had this attitude, so Ma Chao did not hesitate and immediately agreed.
Huang Zhong had already prepared the letter of state, which had the seal of the State Council of Chenhe and the signature of Zhang Zhao, the president of the State Council, Ma Chao recognized it, and thought that the country of Chenhe was so powerful, there was no need to deceive himself, so he also stamped the seal of the Western Regions.
--
The Aral Sea, a saltwater lake in Central Asia, is the fourth largest lake in the world, and is mainly replenished by the Amu Darya and Syr Darya rivers.
Later, the Aral Sea split into several parts and even disappeared completely, but at this time, it was still a huge lake.
On the southern shore of the Aral Sea is the Amu Darya Estuary Delta, where the Aral Sea City was built. With an airplane, Yang Xi is also more convenient, after his special plane landed at Xiangyang Airport, filled up with fuel and continued to the northwest, to Aral Sea City.
At this time, the city of the Aral Sea was still under construction, and Yang Xi personally guided the work, planning the airport, the railway station, and the water conservancy project of the Amu Darya dam.
As long as the manpower investment in these projects is sufficient, construction is not a problem.
Yang Xi wanted to push the territory to the northwest, and Aral Sea City was a springboard. The problem is that the territory of Chenhe Country is too large at present, and the economic centers are in Jingzhou and Yangzhou, which is too far away.
The Western Regions has become a necessary place for communication between the northwest and southeast in a straight line, and if the transportation is not convenient, it will put the development in an embarrassing situation.
It was Yang Xi who launched the plan to develop the Western Regions in advance, which gave Ma Chao the so-called benefits.
How did Ma Chao know that the benefits he had gained, everything was in vain, and one day in the future, maybe it would be tomorrow, and the Western Regions Kingdom would become the territory of Chenhe Kingdom.
Just like Buyeo Country, Ma Chao will have no choice at that time, because the strength of the two sides is not in a heavyweight class, and there is no possibility of a game at all.
However, it is said that Yang Xi went to the Aral Sea City, and the person who passed with him was the former governor of Southeast Asia, whose surname was Liu, whose name was Ba, and the word Zichu. Liu Ba is the son of Liu Xiang, the former Jiangxia Taishou, who met Yang Xi when he was young and has worked together for more than 30 years.
Liu Ba is a few years older than Yang Xi, and he is in his fifties at this time, but he is still in good spirits over the years.
Liu Ba followed Yang Xi to stand at the mouth of the Amu Darya River, looking at the river carrying a lot of sediment, and couldn't help but shake his head.
"Zichu, why are you shaking your head?"
"Führer, this place is far from what I imagined, when you first sent me to Southeast Asia, although the population there was small, only two or three hundred thousand, but after all, there was abundant water, abundant products, and a huge number of ships, and in the past thirty years, the population has finally reached ten million. But this is a geographical advantage. Now you have brought me here, and I have no faith. ”
Yang Xi knew that Liu Ba didn't look down on this place, and to be honest, the continental climate in Central Asia was indeed not ideal. But it has its own advantages.
"Zichu, I know that you have made outstanding achievements in Southeast Asia, that is, you will be elected for another term, and you will still be the governor. But you know, you've been governor of Southeast Asia for almost 30 years, and you've been re-elected twice in a row since the electoral system. According to the rules, you can be elected for a maximum of two consecutive terms, after which you will return to the center. Of course, with your qualifications, if you enter the center, I will have to give you no less than the status of a vice-state. But I have other ideas, now that my Chenhe country has expanded its territory, the world is undecided, and talents like you must do something practical. And this new region of Central Asia is too vast, and I can only think that you have the ability. ”
As soon as Yang Xi said this, Liu Ba felt a little more comfortable.
"Zichu, you and I have known each other for decades, and I also know your character, and you are a person who rises to the occasion. You see, this new land, the whole Amu Darya, flows from the glaciers of the Pamirs at an altitude of 5,000 meters and flows through 2,000 kilometers, with countless tributaries, and you do not discover its potential? ”
"The Führer means electricity?"
Listening to Liu Ba's words, Yang Xi laughed.
"Hahahaha! Zichu, it seems that you have already had a draft for the development of this place, and you have thought of the advantages here, but you deliberately showed embarrassment, but in fact, you have already planned it. Haha, I'm not mistaken, in this way, I will assign the 500,000 square kilometers of the Amu Darya River Valley, as well as the more than 400,000 square kilometers connecting the Western Regions to the northwest, to your governor, and call it Central Asia! ”
Liu Ba was embarrassed to receive the order.
"You can rest assured, you will lead the governor of Central Asia, I will give full support, manpower, technology, resources, finance, all can be given priority, I will also ask the State Council to convene a political meeting to put forward the Central Asian development plan. Now there are more than 300 universities in my Chenhe country, and there are many talents, so you just have to let it go. [End of chapter]
