Si La came over curiously, Lin Yuan said: "This is the Changbai Mountain Range, there is a volcanic lake in Baitou Mountain, the name is Tianchi, the altitude is 2,154 meters, the water flowing out of Tianchi has formed the Songhua River that stretches for thousands of kilometers, how many hydropower resources are contained in it, I believe you know better than me." ”

Tesla nodded and said, "The electricity contained in this can be used by tens of millions of people." ”

Lin Yuan said: "We are developing on a large scale in China, and we will use a lot of electricity, and this will be a huge stage to show AC power to the whole world, are you willing to miss it?" ”

Tesla was moved, he said: "Okay, I promise you, however, the hydropower station is not easy to build, we first need to build a dam for holding water, the construction of the dam requires the use of a large number of earth and stone and other engineering materials, mining and transporting these soil and stone requires a lot of manpower and material resources, which you do not have in China!" ”

Lin Yuan said: "You don't have to worry about this, we have enough manpower. ”

Tesla said: "The manpower I am talking about is not ordinary manpower, the amount of soil and rock is amazing, you can't dig with a shovel, use a horse-drawn cart to transport, in that case, we can't build a dam at the end of the world, which requires a lot of construction machinery, you don't have it in China." ”

Lin Yuan smiled: "You don't have to worry about this, we will make them." Tesla frowned and said, "Do you use this skill?" ”

Lin Yuan said: "Do you have this ability, you will know the Tao in the future, okay, I still have things, you can go and prepare first." ”

Lin Yuan called Liu Yufeng in and said to him, "This gentleman is our honored guest, you settle him down." At this time, Chen Fei walked in and said, "I heard your conversation, I don't understand, why do we want the Americans to design a hydropower station for us?" ”

Lin Yuan said with a smile: "You have just heard that the most important place of the hydropower station is the hydraulic engineering, as for the hydro turbine and the power generation components are secondary, but we have no experts in hydraulic engineering on the Beijing ship, in our time, this Tesla designed the Niagara Falls hydropower station, is a rare talent." ”

At this moment, Tao Zheng suddenly rushed in and said, "Captain, come and see, something is wrong!" ”

Lin Yuan was very panicked when he heard his tone, and hurriedly followed him to the special staff headquarters, Tao Zheng called up a few photos, and said: "This is a photo of the Vladivostok military port taken by our drone, and the time is three days ago. ”

Tao Zheng pointed to the long object on the photo and said, "These are the Russian warships." Tao Zheng pulled up a few more photos from the computer and said: "This is the photo just taken today, you see, the warship in the military port has disappeared." ”

Lin Yuan hurriedly asked, "Then there are no photos of the past three days?" ”

Tao Zheng said: "The sky over Vladivostok has been overcast for the past three days, and it is impossible for our optical detection equipment to pass through the clouds, so there are no photos of these three days." ”

Chen Fei asked curiously on the side: "Doesn't your drone have a radar?" Isn't radar able to see through clouds to the ground? ”

Tao Zheng explained: "Although the electromagnetic waves emitted by the radar can penetrate the clouds, but without the use of synthetic aperture technology, the lateral resolution is too low, it is impossible to image ground objects, even if the synthetic aperture technology is used, the accuracy of imaging will not be too high, taking our drone as an example, the imaging accuracy is about ten meters, and it is difficult to see the warship from those pictures." ”

Lin Yuan asked, "Then where is our drone now?" ”

Tao Zheng said: "Since we don't know the direction of the Russian warship, we didn't let the drone leave the military port. Lin Yuan thought to himself: "Where will the Russian fleet go?" Suddenly, he suddenly remembered the words of the Russian ambassador, "When the guns of our Pacific Fleet sound in Tianjin", could it be that the Russian warships are really heading for Tianjin?

Lin Yuan then said: "Let the drone search west to see if the Russian warship is in this area?" ”

Tao Zheng personally operated the drone, and the drone sent back high-resolution photos from time to time, those photos were full of white ice, Lin Yuan knew that it was sea ice formed near the port, suddenly, he saw something, and hurriedly said: "Stop!" That's the picture! ”

Lin Yuan pointed to the picture and said, "Enlarge it." ”

Tao Zheng hurriedly enlarged the picture, and Chen Fei asked on the side, "What did you see?" ”

Lin Yuan didn't answer, but stared intently at the picture, looked at it for a long time, and then said: "I guessed, the Russian ship must have left the port, and these black things are their cinders!" ”

Chen Fei said in surprise: "Sail out of the port? Isn't the port frozen? ”

Lin Yuan said: "That's right, the Vladivostok military port freezes every winter, so the Russian warships all go to the Sasebo military port in Japan, but this year due to the outbreak of war, they didn't go out, but stayed in the port, but these ice can't seal them, because they are very likely to be equipped with icebreakers." ”

Chen Fei said: "I've heard of icebreakers, but what does the icebreaker have to do with these cinders? ”

Lin Yuan said: "The icebreaker is equipped with a very thick steel plate at the bow, and when breaking the ice, it will first retreat and then accelerate forward, so that the huge kinetic energy of the hull can crush the ice, if the ice is too thick, it will not be broken, and the icebreaker can also rush to the ice, the weight of the icebreaker is generally tens of thousands of tons, and such a large weight is not what the ice can bear, the ice will be crushed, so a huge waterway can be opened." ”

"When the icebreaker is moving forward and backward, the engine must be driven to the maximum power, which causes serious fuel consumption, so it needs to be replenished in time, and the fuel of the Russian warship is coal, so these cinders are left when they replenish fuel."

When Lin Yuan explained, Tao Zheng had been manipulating the drone and flying in the direction of cinder, Tao Zheng looked at the photo and said: "The Russian warship broke through the ice three nautical miles from the military port and sailed into the sea without ice, where they went later, we have no way to find it, after all, the scope of the sea is too large." ”

Lin Yuan said: "They must have gone south, then passed through the Korean Strait between the Korean Peninsula and the Japanese Kyushu archipelago, and then went north into Tianjin, you follow this line to find it." ”

It is not easy to find a few warships in the vast sea, although the Beijing ship had the experience of discovering the British fleet and the Japanese fleet, but those times it was because he already knew the approximate location of the enemy's warships, so he was able to find them very smoothly, but this time it was different, Lin Yuan only knew the general direction of the Russian warships, and he could not find them at all. Chen Fei said: "Since you said that the Russian warships are going to Tianjin, why don't we wait for them in Tianjin." ”

Lin Yuan shook his head lightly and said, "In that case, we don't know anything about the situation of their fleet, we will be too passive, if we can detect them as soon as possible, the methods we adopt will be flexible!" Lin Yuan saw that the time was not early, so he said: "Okay, it's not a matter of looking for a warship, let's go to dinner first." ”

Everyone got up to leave, but Chen Fei pointed to the screen and said in surprise: "What is this?" ”
