Through the base transfer of the frozen space, Qi Yiming returned to the main base again. He originally wanted to inspect several other sub-bases, or go sightseeing in Myanmar and Afghanistan, but his personal information suggested that Jacqueline had returned to the main base, so he had to hurry up to meet her.

The two who hadn't seen each other for a long time didn't speak as soon as they met, and Jacqueline, who was like a lioness, immediately relied on her strong physical fitness to push back Qi Yiming, who was already about to be reduced to a small suffer. Qi Yiming could only helplessly and happily relieve Jacqueline's long-term lovesickness, and after that, the two could have a good talk.

"How's the mission, is it going well?"

Jacqueline shrunk into Qi Yiming's arms, not as fierce as before, but like a lazy kitten licking her paws and squinting, she replied: "Some scum, what kind of waves can they make?" It's good to clean up, but it's a little bit of waste. As for the Sri Lankan side, the LTTE has just not encountered a truly organized army, and has now been destroyed. However, I think that the real source of the conflict on the Sri Lankan side is not resolved, and there will be bears and elephants without tigers. ”

Qi Yiming nodded, thinking deeply, his layout of Sri Lanka was just a convenient one, and if it was done well, it was the icing on the cake, and there was no big problem if it was not done well. The entire Indian Ocean coast is really carrying out another strategy called the "South Asian String of Pearls" by some strategists, that is, forming a naval base control chain in Pakistan, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh, Burma, Seychelles and other places, forming a relatively strong military pressure in the entire Indian Ocean. The String of Pearls strategy will not be as directed at China and the Soviet Union as the first island chain, and its main purpose is not to suppress the Azerbaijans, but to protect its own energy lifeline in the Indian Ocean region of South Asia.

In Qi Yiming's vision, the rapid development of the country's economy is based on sufficient energy resources, especially foreign energy imports must be more stable than the other side. Before he could start harvesting shale gas, the external energy channel was mainly divided into several large blocks. Thirty percent of the energy comes from the South China Sea, mainly from the Xisha Sea, the coast of the Malay Peninsula, the coast of Brunei and other offshore oil extraction, which can basically be equivalent to domestic supply, because the control is relatively strong, so it is the safest.

Then there are the oil and gas resources from the Middle East, these oil and gas resources from the Persian Gulf or North Africa, they are quite dependent on China's military presence and deterrence in the Indian Ocean, Qi Yiming has always heard people say before crossing the country, China is the beneficiary of the international order, following the United States to eat and drink spicy, this is of course there is a gold and wishful thinking in the face of the US imperialists, but if South Asia is really not calm, China itself will certainly not be able to maintain a safe place. Naturally, there is no big crest cold rain in the other world.

Oil from the Middle East can come to China through three routes: the Northwest Oil Pipeline from Gwadar, the Southwest Oil and Gas Pipeline from Mad and Kyaukphyu in Myanmar to Yunnan, and the third is the normal oil tanker to China's coast through the Strait of Malacca and the South China Sea. These three pipelines are not obvious now, but when China's total economic output triples and the demand for resources increases dramatically, there are great hopes for these routes. For a long time, China's energy channel is stuck, and at this time, Qi Yiming is planning first, and it is necessary to create a safer and more diversified energy channel.

Then there are the western oil and gas lines and the northern oil and gas lines. The West mainly comes from countries such as Kazakhstan and Azerbaijan in Central Asia, and the North naturally comes from Russia. At this time, naturally, these places all had a common name, the Soviet Union, and the Soviet Union was still not completely collapsed. The border war in '86 made the recovery of Sino-Soviet relations much slower than that of US-Soviet relations, and until this time the meeting between the leaders of the two countries was not arranged in much detail, and the bad king Gorbachev seems to have been angry about the rabbit family beating the woolly bear but did nothing.

However, as long as the Soviet Union collapses according to the normal course of history, according to Qi Yiming's grand plan for the future, he will be able to control the oil supply of the West and the North as much as he controls the oil of the South China Sea.

Now the main domestic oil supply is basically from the technical transformation of several major oil fields, for these oil fields, Qi Yiming Zhidao is not enough to feed now, but it is also quite considerable, there are a lot of undeveloped oil and gas resources in China, he does not plan to be in such a hurry to start. Look, the American imperialists all bought oil and imported it into the natural cave as a reserve. However, the oil fields that have been exploited for so many years will basically produce oil in the next two or three decades, but there will be relatively little oil. Qi Yiming thought to himself simply continue to exploit, after all, these oil fields can train many industry workers, and the future export of China's industrial capacity to the world still depends on these people.

Among the many oil and gas import routes, the northwest route of Gwadar is being built relatively quickly, and the project has been launched due to military aid and other economic investment, and the China-Pakistan railway from Gwadar to Kashgar and the parallel oil and gas pipeline are expected to start using in three to four years at the earliest. Among them, there is naturally the vigorous promotion of Qi Yiming and the base, and the opening of the northwest line is conducive to revitalizing the economy of the northwest region and driving the common prosperity of the mainland.

"You did a good job in Sri Lanka, I heard that you also had some conflicts with the Indian Ahsan, and India later declared Ximu an illegal organization and restricted your activities in India." Qi Yiming asked with a smile.

Jacqueline pursed her lips, rested her head on a jade arm, pinched a strand of blonde hair in one jade hand and gently scratched it on Qi Yiming's chest, and said, "Originally, we didn't plan to have any deep friendship with India, just a group of idiots who think too highly of themselves." ”

Qi Yiming grabbed her soft and smiled: "Then I heard that you guys also caused trouble and ran away afterwards." ”

Jacqueline defended: "I don't want to cause trouble, if I can, our people in Ximu will wipe out the Indian Asan stationed in Sri Lanka in a minute." ”

This is not a lie, Qi Yiming spared no effort to support Ximu, and India's military strength at this time is not comparable to the level of later generations, Ximu's elite soldiers may be able to disperse the Indians with a wave of attacks.

"By the way, the company now has a slight name, and some people also apply for services from us through some channels, but most of them go to Africa, Latin America and other places to be VIP bodyguards, I think although it is very fragmented, but it is still a little helpful to improve the ability of those scum, and besides, it is impossible for Westwood to frequently participate in conflicts on the scale of the war, which will attract some attention from the forces."

Qi Yiming nodded, but teased: "You have already posted an amphibious ship, aren't you paying enough attention?" The CIA people in the United States are spying on you everywhere, and if I hadn't wiped your ass in the back, how could you have lived so comfortably. ”

Jacqueline tapped him lightly on the chest, a little disgusted, thought about it and said: "However, some people in our team reacted, the vertical landing capability of amphibious ships is still relatively limited, and we lack a relatively large helicopter specializing in hoisting and transporting, do you have anything to recommend?" ”

Lifting vehicles, cannons and other equipment from the ship, the US military uses the CH-53 Sea Stallion, a 20-ton (CH-53K to 38-ton) heavy helicopter capable of lifting two Humvees or 105mm towed guns. In fact, the army also needs similar hoisting capabilities, so the PLA took the opportunity to ask the United States for the production license of CH-47 Chinook, and at this time China has already copied almost 100 aircraft (including base manufacturing).

If you talk about heavy helicopters, the army also has a Z-22 double-edged blade, but this thing is too big, the length of the aircraft is 42 meters, and the maximum take-off weight is more than 50 tons. Even the CH-47 is a little too long at 30 meters.

For this purpose, the Navy has allocated a special amount of funds to develop a heavy helicopter specially for the landing of the Marine Corps for lifting, and the project is progressing smoothly and is ready to enter the acceptance stage. This helicopter is called the Z-16 "Mixed River Dragon", with a length of 30 meters, a rotor diameter of 22 meters, and a height of 8. 5 meters, maximum take-off weight 36 tons. The reason why this helicopter can be developed and trial-produced so quickly is mainly because the base has a lot of information, and this mixed river dragon is also based on the European HTH (Heavy-Transport-Helicopter) plan, so after adding, subtracting, modifying, modifying, forming and flying are very fast.

This helicopter is developed and produced by Changfei, a subsidiary of Shenghua Group, and the Navy has placed an order for 16 in the first phase, including the development funds, the unit price of the helicopter has reached 60 million yuan, which is more expensive than some fighters, but with the increase in mass production, the relative cost will be reduced.

The Red Police base is not involved in the manufacturing process, but the technology is indeed there, and there is no problem with manufacturing. Qi Yiming thought about the situation of Ximu Company and said: "The Z-16 will send you back to the past 4 planes, you can also use it to see if there are any minor problems, and feed it back to Changfei for further modification." ”

Anyway, it was free to get the goods, and Qi Yiming didn't mind letting Ximu's people do the test products, so he nodded and agreed. The two talked about some more and didn't, but they avoided the question that Qi Yiming was already a married man, and talked for a while about the layout for the collapse of the Soviet Union. There are still two years before the collapse of the Soviet Union, and the drastic changes in Eastern Europe are imminent, Qi Yiming has prepared quite a lot of means to deal with and ride this big wave. Naturally, he is also quite wary of the wind of drastic changes blowing into the country, but looking at the current Psychic Beacon Tower and a series of reforms that have benefited the whole people, the state of political communication and harmony has appeared, and the threat to CPC is not great.
