Chapter 508: Mentor
"Punishment, those barbarians must be punished" When the president of the Lords of the Federal House of Lords in a suit and leather shoes shouted in Parliament, the green lights of agreement were lit one by one on the semicircular stepped tables.
Under the manipulation of the two evolutionary officers, the wind of the council quickly changed to the punishment plan codenamed Severe Winter. Of course, these people in the Watt Federation have not yet had a hot head enough to put up a battle posture with Mikhail on the European road, tank-to-tank, plane-to-plane, nuclear artillery to nuclear artillery, and everyone has not dared to treat the Zhoutian alliance as if it did not exist.
Since you can't fight, then it's punishment. After the decision of the upper echelons of the Watt Federation, a large number of ships carrying crushed limestone in the North Atlantic sailed towards Iceland. Trains hovering over Iceland's volcanoes are laden with these large chunks of limestone. Enter the tunnels of the volcanic mountain. Well, the advantage of using limestone is that it does not need to be crushed and thrown into the magma.
In the blazing volcanic space, it is like purgatory, when a large number of rocks are sent to the surrounding stairs to tilt, the top metal baffle begins to cover, the volcano enters a closed state, after several hours of burning, the volcano baffle is retracted, and from the outside, a stream of red red gas emerges from the dam body of the volcano, and the red high-temperature gas overflows with the baffle, but then the high temperature is cooled down, and a large amount of water is injected into it. Immediately afterwards, the entire mountain trembled slightly, and the red of the volcanic dam was instantly replaced by a white column of smoke that rushed into the sky. In the sudden cold and heat, the hot limestone that had been covering the surface of the magma instantly rose like explosives. The huge pillar of smoke was pushed into the sky by a continuous thrust, and the column of smoke continued to rise, and after a slow mushroom cloud grew, a rising stem-like air flow continued to appear on the umbrella of the mushroom cloud, and another mushroom cloud grew.
Thousands of tons of volcanic ash were ejected, then transported to tens of thousands of meters by an updraft of hot air, spreading to the entire European continent under the force of westerly winds. This time the eruption was not much, and then the second train carrying the ore entered the volcanic mountain.
I'm not going to have troops fight you, but I'm sick to you. Reduced the number of hours of sunlight in Europe. In addition volcanic ash seriously interferes with aviation. As for Iceland, the dust in the sky has made everyone here wear a mask and a raincoat. The whole city was covered with mud.
As a result of the efforts of the Watt Federation, the region of Europe west of the Alps has become particularly cold since the 65th year of the nuclear era. The sky in Europe is the same as in Sichuan, and the sun is rarely seen.
As part of the volcanic ash enters the stratosphere and spreads in the stratosphere, the temperature is falling all over the world, and the coastal areas are okay, the temperature is suitable, and the sunshine is excessive. In the interior, the change in climate is clearly felt.
In 1267, the reservoir in the Henan region had dried up to the bottom, revealing cracked land. The locust plague did not rise because it was killed by planes at the first sign of it. Ren Di and Li Ziming have been in this world for sixty years. Under the notice of evolution, these two have entered the aging period.
Of the three stats, Stamina and Agility will begin to decay gradually, and of course the rate of decay will depend on the health of life. Among the residents of the Loess District, the first group of humans to enter the school. They have long since died, and now even the first batch of year-to-belongers who have been genetically modified have begun to pass away.
At present, the population of the Loess District has reached 9 million, of which 4 million are able to engage in normal labor for 15 years, and the number of qualified applicants for high school Chinese courses is 4 million. It's quite remarkable that a lieutenant can do this in this world of generals' missions, even if he quits because of lack of life. The generals of this world who do such tasks are not qualified to laugh at them.
Whether or not to choose to use the crown to continue in this world is to test whether the lieutenant has the determination to persevere, here Ren Di can choose, evolution provides glory and provides the authority to enter the higher world, and the meaning lies in this.
At this time, due to the drought in the main stream of the Yellow River, it is now entering a dry period, and there is only a trickle in the middle of the Yellow River's sediment-filled riverbed, and a large number of heavy machinery is being built a kilometer away, and dozens of tons of concrete steel bars are entering the riverbed. Because it was the dry season, it was not as difficult to build a closed dam as it was to intercept the Yangtze River. If it is a large river like the Yangtze River, the final process of interception will be very turbulent, and it must be thrown into large chunks of overweight reinforced concrete territory.
If the Yellow River is now full of water, it will be difficult to intercept it. So it's a very good time to fix now. As for how the dam should be built and for what purpose. Anyway, no hydroelectric power stations can be built on the Yellow River. Because the hydropower generator needs to use water to drive the runner, for the life of the runner, the sediment in the water wears the turbine very much. Therefore, it is often necessary to create a buffer zone to allow the sediment in the water to settle. Well, the situation of the Yellow River is known to the Chinese, after passing through the Loess Plateau, a bowl of water is half a bowl of sand. The drain is built above the discharge to generate electricity? The Soviet-designed Sanmenxia plan to generate electricity was the biggest failure.
Then the only way to store water is to discharge the water below the dam, and the water pressure under the reservoir exposes the outlet, which is conducive to carrying away the sediment accumulated at the bottom of the reservoir. Of course, the reservoir still has a lifespan, because the sediment carried away can only be the river channel in front of the reservoir, but the reservoir lifts a large water level. Large areas of water will accumulate a large amount of sediment, so the location chosen for the construction of the dam, i.e. the upstream area, needs to have a large area of water. Supply the Yellow River with sediment. The area should be very large. So Shaanxi is not suitable.
It is better to be in Henan, which is flat and has low and stocky dams. can store a lot of water. The location is in the tune of Li Ziming, and the specific coordinates should be fifty kilometers away from Xiaolangdi, and the course of the Yellow River in this world has changed a little. Basically in the northwest of Henan.
The precipitation in Henan is no longer enough. If the Yellow River passing through Henan is not intercepted, there is no way to deal with this great drought. Groundwater can be pumped for industrial use, but not for agriculture, and now the groundwater in the interior has been restored for a thousand years. The amount is sufficient. But the reason why groundwater is called groundwater is that it must be held together from underground rock layers. The underground rock formations definitely have limestone. So groundwater is alkaline. If you dare to use groundwater for irrigation, just wait for the land to become salinized.
Surface water, especially flowing river water, is now Ren Di's most important resource. Because the amount used is too large, there is no way to transport it. If the nuclear fuel for the nuclear reactor and the biodiesel can still be purchased from the Zhoutian alliance area and transported through the Yellow River waterway. But how many billions of cubic meters of water do you need for agriculture? Sunlight is also an energy source that cannot be transported.
Therefore, when the Lantes in the north took a fancy to the geomagnetic pole, Ren Di's eyes were now only focused on water resources, and now, water resources should be the only reason for war in the Loess region, and of course a reason to cheer up work. Horsepower huge diesel engines roar. The concrete from the mixer is poured on the abrasives and then transported to the construction site by a huge crane.
This scene may not see much technical content, but behind it is a series of steel, cement and steel factory capacity support. There is also the capacity of the railway. This is an industrial system, an industrial production system composed of aspirants, and a few decades ago, there were completely sub-human beings in this industrial system in a single factory module, and sub-human beings could not be formed. And now aspirants are able to collaborate to complete this kind of labor, behind which is the progress of gene technology to serve humanity.
Li Ziming looked at the scene of the construction site, took a breath, and asked Ren Di: "It is estimated that it will take more time." Ren Di said: "According to the supply of materials and the current labor efficiency, the total construction period will take eight years. ”
Li Ziming said: "I'm talking about this task, the evolution task, how many years will it take for the loess area to get rid of crutches." Ren Di put down the drawings, paused and said, "Crutches? Now the production of bulk materials such as steel, coal, electricity, and energy can now be eliminated, and the chip design and manufacturing have also been trial-produced, and it is expected that after eight years, it will meet the needs of all aspirants for automatic monitoring of individual health. As for the genetic laboratory, the first new human aspirants have now entered it for experimentation. Some of the parts of the most cutting-edge medical equipment in it cannot be produced in-house yet, but we have bought enough spare parts. And in terms of processing these parts, I can do cheating."
Ren Di turned his head to look at Li Ziming and said, "As for completely getting rid of the crutches, that is only to complete the real master." ”
Li Ziming nodded, what Ren Di said, he understands, from the modification of gene fragments, to the complete gene in the nucleus of the fertilized egg, from the fertilized egg to the gestation period of the baby. From infancy to youth, from youth to a series of labors, to the aging of the body as a last resort. This series of processes is the material existence of human beings in this world, and a series of material changes are clearly understood, and only then can we win. The current sub-human aspirants are making material changes to the human body in the period of genetic modification before the fertilized egg, while the new human aspirants are working on the part of the fertilized egg becoming a baby. As for the later adolescent development, the aging of the elderly, the conscious existence of the life stage in the body, both sides are engaged in it.
In the later childhood stage, because there is self-consciousness in the body, as long as this consciousness is guided to cooperate, as long as there is a self-consciousness of growth, it can cooperate with the experiment and collect data more easily (this is the advantage of the loess area in genetic engineering over Zhou Tianhemeng in information acquisition. Their test subjects do not speak.)
However, the previous living matter has no self-consciousness, and can only know what kind of impact the initial change will have in the stage of continuous and subtle experimentation. Each of the two types of aspirants is responsible for their own tasks. At that time, the understanding of genes of sub-human aspirants was gradually improved, and the sub-human aspirants who were comparable to the qualities of new human beings were produced by natural fertility. When the new human aspirants are born 100% healthy babies through artificial conception, all the gaps in knowledge in the process of the birth of the human physical body are filled.
If it is only a sub-human aspirant, or a new human aspirant, the current path will leave a blank. With a gap, there is an information blind spot in life knowledge. The so-called meeting teacher is this meaning.
Li Ziming hesitated for a while and looked at the green tendons on his hands that had begun to bulge in the past few years, and finally shook his head. Ren Di shifted his gaze from Li Ziming and put it back on the drawings. Nothing seems to be happening.
