Chapter 501: Flying Faster Than Voice
PS: 6000 words big chapter, ask for votes to support. This should be counted as two watches, right? Too lazy to take it apart. Strive for another chapter in the evening.
................................................................................................
March 19, 2774 (1933), Chengdu.
"Governor Qi, you have to take care of this matter, otherwise I won't be able to explain. Isn't it disturbing that they are shocked three times a day?"
Mayor Wang of Chengdu is complaining to his superiors.
"Lao Wang, you say, what do you want me to do? They are units directly under the central government, and this is a key project of national defense, so do you want them to stop? Even if I speak, they won't listen......" Governor Qi felt that his brain hurt, and he said angrily.
Recently, Chengdu citizens have reported that they often hear violent explosions in the air, which is very scary. Sometimes two or three times a day, sometimes a dozen times a day, and at most dozens of times a day. This mysterious explosion has brought great trouble to the people of Chengdu, some children are scared and crying, some livestock and pets are frightened, and hens are no longer laying eggs...... Wait, these are still small things. Because the official has not come forward to clarify, the people's mood is somewhat unstable, and there are even rumors about what kind of factory explosion, or terrorist attacks, etc.
"Then what should I do? Now several district and county magistrates are lying in the office waiting for me to solve it. I know this is a national defense secret, so I don't dare to tell them the truth, what do you say I should do?"
"Okay, you go back and wait for a while. I'll go directly to the prime minister, Made, what the hell are they doing Cheng Fei......" Governor Qi said indignantly.
It didn't take long for this matter to go directly to Wen Desi. Because this phenomenon is not only in Chengdu, but also in Yingcheng and Guangzhou. Government officials from all over the country have complained bitterly.
"Well, I didn't think it through, I didn't expect this thing to move so much......" Wen Deji first made a self-examination. "Immediately order the three units not to carry out similar experiments in densely populated areas in the future, and let them go to the northwest, desert north, northeast or the ocean, those vast and sparsely populated places, whatever they want. Oh, and several other aerospace units have also been notified that they should pay attention to this kind of test in the future and not disturb the people. Even if you want to do it in your own unit, don't do it at low altitude!"
"On the private side, I asked them to explain that this is a scientific experiment in the atmosphere related to artificial rainfall, and then let the local government count it, and if it does cause damage, we will compensate the government. Mr. Wen, do you think this is okay......" Zhang Lizheng said with a smile.
"Okay, that's it. The reason for the scientific experiments in the atmosphere related to artificial rainfall is very accurate......" Moon nodded with a smile.
"By the way, are all their supersonic tests going well?"
Zhang Lizheng replied: "The progress of the three units is very good. Chengfei's 1066 project reached 2. 7 times the speed of sound, the 1067 project of Efei reached 2. 5 times the speed of sound, Guangfei's 1068 project reached 2. 4 times the speed of sound......"
That's right, this mysterious explosion sound is a sonic boom produced by the three aircraft factories conducting supersonic flight tests, and the strong pressure waves generated by the aircraft when flying at supersonic speeds will form an explosion sound like thunder when transmitted to the ground. When the aircraft flies at low altitude and supersonic speed, not only can people and animals on the ground hear a deafening loud noise, affecting people's lives and work, but also shattering glass and even damaging unstable buildings, causing direct losses. As the flight altitude increases, this effect becomes weaker and weaker, and when a certain altitude is exceeded, the ground is basically unaffected.
........................................................................
April 12, Ansi Province, Red Sand Desert (Kyzylkum Desert).
The Hongsha Desert spans the three provinces of Anxi, Mengchi and Xihai, covering an area of about 300,000 square kilometers, second only to the Gobi Desert with an area of 1.04 million square kilometers and the Great Wilderness Desert (Taklamakan Desert) with an area of 320,000 square kilometers, and is the third largest desert in China. However, the conditions here are much better than in the Great Desert, with 100-200 mm of annual precipitation, while the Great Desert receives very low annual precipitation, ranging from 38 mm in the west to 10 mm in the east. The most important thing is that the Great Wilderness Desert is a mobile desert and a standard desert, while the Red Sand Desert is a fixed desert, not to mention the Gobi Desert, many areas are not considered real deserts.
In addition, the Red Sand Desert is located between the two big rivers of Syr Darya and Amu Darya, adjacent to the Aral Sea, and the water vapor is not a little bit more than that of the Great Desert, so there are many small oases in the Red Sand Desert, which can become the center of animal husbandry.
However, after more than 20 years of environmental transformation, the current Great Wilderness Desert has a new look, can be renamed the Great Wilderness Grassland, of course, compared to the real grassland is still inferior, the current environment there is still relatively fragile, as long as a few special plants can survive, the accurate description should be its vegetation cover higher than the desert, but lower than the typical temperate grassland. Even so, compared to the previous desert times when there was no grass growing in the past, it is already a paradise.
Of course, it is not only the Great Desert that has undergone environmental transformation, but also the deserts and deserts in Qinghai, Gansu, and the deserts in the south and north of the desert (Inner Mongolia and Outer Mongolia). After the return of Anxi to China in 1918, the desert and desert in this area have also undergone environmental transformation since 1919. However, the environmental transformation in this area was nearly a decade later, so the change does not appear to be as significant as in the deserts in the interior. However, the increase in vegetation in the desert and the reduction in the size of desertified areas are still very noticeable, which can be seen from the air.
China's environmental transformation methods have also aroused the interest of many countries, and Mr. Wen has always encouraged this interest, and he hopes that these powers will transform all the harsh areas into beautiful mountains. Therefore, the seeds of this kind of environmental modification plant are sold to the world, and the planting methods are also public, and the request for cultivation and guidance is also accepted, and the money is given. As for what they do, Mr. Wen doesn't care. The major powers also bought some back, and also sent people to study or ask people to guide, which great power did not have deserts at home, even if there were no locals, the colonies also had them.
But the progress of the great powers is very touching, although these things have been published for more than 20 years, but in addition to the younger brother of the People's Revolutionary Union, that is, the Soviet Union and the United States still have some achievements, other countries are all good, such as the Germans on the territory of the desert is not to say, Britain and France, countries with large deserts in their hands, actually did not do much, it is really very disappointing to Mr. Wen.
Well, the reason why Britain and France have little motivation is understandable, after all, their deserts are all in the colonies, and this motivation is not so sufficient. Coupled with the trauma of the First World War, the colonial uprisings after the First World War cost them all the life and death, so they really had little interest in building colonies. "Anyway, you've been in the desert for so many years, so you have to do it yourself. ”
The United States doesn't have colonies, uh, nominally, and it stands to reason that their deserts are concentrated on the mainland, so there should always be motivation, right? As long as you are not a fool, you know the benefits of transforming the environment, and everyone knows that this is a good thing for the benefit of the country and the people, but who will pay for this large amount of money has become a big problem.
Because this project is not a small number, it is a very large and time-consuming project, and the manpower and material resources invested in it will go away. China has invested tens of millions of re-education through labor prisoners, re-education through labor detainees, civilized school students, and various volunteers and volunteers to this end, and it has taken more than ten years to do so. China's investment is not a secret, and it has not been reserved for the Yankees to know. It may be that this number is too staggering and thunders the Yankees.
Well, although their desert area is smaller than China's, the desert and the desert together are more than a million square kilometers, and even according to one-third of China's engineering volume, this investment is scary enough. Therefore, the old men of the Senate and the House of Representatives are arguing about this matter, and it is difficult to give up good money, and there is no Green Party in this era.
The old men of the eastern states first said that the deserts are all in California, Nevada, Arizona, Utah, New Mexico and other states in the west, and they have something to do with the wood in the east. We are accountable to our constituents and cannot waste taxpayers' money on sand...... Yunyun.
The old men in the western states immediately became angry: this development of the western region is the established national policy of our rice country, and if you are unwilling to pay for the transformation of the desert, you are opposing the large-scale development of the western region, you are opposing the established national policy, you are against the voters, you are the wrong line, and you are the traitor of the United States. amp; Thief...... Yunyun.
The two sides talked about it for several years, until President Cox's second term was almost over, and then they finally finished talking about the cost, and then they started to talk about the manpower. There are tens of millions of re-education through labor inmates in China who work as cheap labor, but the United States does not. If you hire people to plant trees and grass, the cost will be high, and this little money will definitely not be enough, and if you want the old man to increase the cost, it will take at least a few more years to rip off.
After more than ten years of migration, the number of black Americans has plummeted from nearly 10 million before the war to 6 or 700,000 now. Back then, it was too good to send black corn to the sea, and it was difficult to find cheap labor now. But it is unrealistic to relocate the Black Shu millet back, not to mention the cost and toss, it is not easy to pass the test with just a political correctness.
When these were sent back, everyone was overjoyed, but now they are slapping themselves in the face? Although it is said that turning faces like flipping books is a necessary skill for politicians, it is not good to look at it if it is too fast. So I had to gather the remaining six or seven hundred thousand black corn first, and send them to the western desert to plant trees and grass.
Millions or tens of millions of bankrupt and unemployed people have suddenly become more bankrupt and unemployed, and although both the UHR and the Third International are extending an olive branch to recruit manpower, there are always many who are unwilling to go there, or who do not meet the requirements. At least half of this group of people.
President Hoover was also forced by these people to be in a hurry, and he was about to go wrong. If these people are not appeased, what will happen to the revolution again? Finally, a wise man had an idea and slapped his head: "Aren't the old councilors worried that there are too few people planting trees?
And they all rejoiced. At present, the United States has enough people to carry out environmental transformation, but it started too late, so the results are not great.
However, the Soviet Union was very powerful, and there were not many deserts on their territory, and the area was very small, and it was still scattered sporadically. Under the order of Comrade Stalin, hundreds of thousands of laborers marched out on a large scale, and many exiles were also sent over, and these poor little deserts knelt down for Starshu in minutes.
The environmental transformation of other countries is also due to the advantages of the system, and under the mobilization of the whole country, regardless of the cost, there are not many things that cannot be settled. However, these countries have limited populations and limited national strength, and their progress will certainly not be comparable to China's.
Located in the middle of the Red Sand Desert, the town of Caishi was known as "Uchikuduk" in the history of the original time and space, and was classified as a secret administrative district during the Soviet era for its open-pit uranium mines. That's right, the town was built for uranium. Although Wen Zongman buys uranium ore all over the world, he cannot let go of his own country, especially this kind of open-pit uranium ore that is easy to mine.
Besides, this is also a manifestation of responsibility to the masses, otherwise the masses ran here to play without knowing it, and wouldn't it be wronged to be irradiated? Therefore, in order to prevent this kind of tragedy from happening, the responsible Wen always plans to put away all these dangerous things. Isn't the desert being renovated now, and when it's done, it won't be a desert anymore. It may even become a tourist destination. Uranium ore is the "rose" of the ore family, which is colorful, colorful, and some also have a gemstone luster, and even have a luminous nature, which is very beautiful. Those who don't know the goods may even pick up good things like rare treasures and peerless gems.
The town of Colorstone is named after these colorful ores, in fact, the name was given by the locals themselves, it does not exist on the map, and there is no such organization in the administrative body. Its official name is "9527 Labor Farm". Although it is very remote, there is a branch railway to the outside world, except for a few large cities, this is probably the earliest area in Anxi to connect to the railway.
Of course, this "farm" sells dog meat on the head of a sheep, and there are no things that are grown here, and there are no things that can be grown, and even if they are grown, I am afraid that no one will dare to eat them. They just harvest things, "harvesting" from the ground those colorful, beautiful, and even glowing stones.
A group of people wearing blue labor uniforms with numbers on their backs are sweating in the mine, driving small forklifts, or using long-handled pliers, or using iron catalpa, to pour the ore into the bucket truck, and then send it to the concentrator next to it, and then those wearing the same uniform use the concentrator to process the ore. The selected concentrate is then weighed and then loaded into trucks for transport.
If we can't finish our share today, a group of us will only be able to nibble on pickles. If you do a good job, you will have good wine and meat...... "A middle-aged man works while cheering up his companions. Although this man is now covered with stubble and his complexion is dark, if you look closely, you will see that he has delicate skin and slender fingers, and it does not look like he is doing this kind of work at all.
If an acquaintance sees it, he will certainly be surprised; Isn't this Tian Cheng, a well-known reporter of a certain newspaper in the south and a "martial arts knight"? Last year, this Tian Daxia Tian Da reporter was unable to bear the mental pressure of the victim's family because he spread rumors in the newspaper to confuse the public and eat human blood steamed buns, causing the victim's family to be unable to bear the mental pressure, committing suicide, and going crazy, which caused a strong negative impact on society. As a result, he was sentenced to 80 years in prison and deprived of human rights for 10 years by the Supreme Ethics Court. And then they were sent here.
"Okay, hurry up......" As soon as the companions heard "good wine and good meat", they suddenly seemed to be a conditioned reflex, and they only felt a burst of excitement in their minds, and the indescribable consciousness was passed over, and their strength was a little stronger, and the distractions in their hearts were suddenly gone. Even the energetic Tian Daxia worked hard after saying this.
Many of these miners had previously been prominent in the past, some had been well-known barristers, some had been high-ranking judges, and some had been well-dressed professors. In addition, there are former religious figures, such as eminent monks, priests, imams, and real religious leaders, as well as the former Qing Dynasty's princes, princes, and generals, as well as volunteers from all afar from foreign countries, and even those reactionaries in the new territories who resist national integration and turn back the clock on history. In any case, they have been sentenced to "deprivation of human rights".
On a hill a few kilometers from the mine, a group of people are pointing in this direction.
"Vice Premier Ban, please rest assured that the work efficiency on our side is very high, and we will definitely not lag behind. Pan Lizai confidently assured the leaders who came to inspect. He is the supreme head here, the commander of the "9527 Labor Farm".
Ban Chuanzhi picked up the binoculars and looked at the mine, and asked, "How many people are mining here?"
"6,743 people, all of whom are first-class labor reform personnel......" Pan Lizai reported without even hitting a single one. The so-called first-class re-education through labor personnel refer to those criminals who have "caused great harm to the country and society, had a particularly bad impact, and the circumstances are particularly serious, and need to be isolated from the normal population for a long time", which is second only to the death penalty anyway.
"Can these people be seriously reformed?" asked Ban Chuanzhi as he put down his binoculars.
"Of course, we have adopted a new management system, and they are all highly motivated...... "Pan Lizai said quickly. Although this deputy prime minister has been in charge of industry since the founding of the People's Republic of China, and he is not in the same system, he is absolutely not negligent. Although he is the boss here, he is in charge of 10,000 people, including criminals, guards, doctors, drivers and other staff, but he is seventeen or eighteen levels behind the deputy prime minister.
"Hmm......" Ban Chuanzhi nodded noncommittally. He just asked this question in a procedural way, and the specific reasons were clearer, more understanding, and more understanding than this "cell boss". With the original noble and cold identity of these labor prisoners, they will definitely not be able to do this kind of work, and even if they fall into this kind of field, they will definitely not be as conscious as they are now, and there is not even a supervisor next to them. But as mentioned earlier, after the verdict, these people will have to undergo a physical examination and a small operation...... And they all rejoiced.
"Don't lose too much, although it is not a pity for these people to die, but we need labor everywhere now. Ban Chuanzhi said coldly. Although he was not a judge, he was a member of the highest moral court. Many of them were signed by him.
This supreme moral tribunal is not part of the court system, but it is above the court, but it is not normally activated. It is designed to fill legal loopholes, and it only adjudicates for acts that are not restrictive by the current law, but are clearly immoral, extremely harmful, and have a bad impact.
Wen Desi never believed in the argument that the law is omnipotent, and in his opinion, the law is dead, and it is easy for people to take advantage of loopholes, and it is usually the bad people who are more likely to take advantage of the loopholes than the good people. That's why he set up a supreme moral court, the chief judge of which was Wen Desi himself, and the judges were composed of some central bigwigs and elected people's representatives. That's right, this is the "rule of man" that some people hate. According to Mr. Wen's words: Yes, I will be ruled by people, and I will interfere with the judiciary, and I will not accept you to beat me!
For example, if his behavior is according to the current law, he will be sentenced to five years for rumor-mongering, but this obviously cannot calm the public's resentment. So the Supreme Ethics Court was activated, sentencing Ya to 80 years in prison, deprivation of human rights for 10 years, deprivation of political power for 40 years, compensation of 500,000 yuan for the victim, confiscation of all property, and other punishments.
Pan Lizai hurriedly replied: "Please rest assured, the physical condition of these people is monitored by us at any time." We practice scientific management. According to the expert's plan, the staff is rotated every three months, and the re-education through labour staff is rotated every six months. In order to ensure work efficiency while minimizing meaningless losses......"
"I remember, you are Fan Han's old subordinate, right?" Ban Chuanzhi suddenly thought of something.
"Yes, that's still the old thing when Mr. Wen was diving. When Minister Fan was in charge of the Beijing Intelligence Station, I was a field officer...... "Pan Lizai felt a little fluttering when he boarded up.
No wonder it's so undisciplined...... Ban Chuanzhi nodded clearly: "No wonder, you are also an old comrade of my party." Minister Fan's old subordinates are very capable, I remember that there was a young man from Sun Dianying in Beijing Station back then......"
"Yes, but I haven't seen you in a long time. Not long ago, I heard that Lao Sun is now in India, presiding over the archaeological work of a certain temple......"
..............................................................................
Ban Chuanzhi was about to say something more, when suddenly there was a thunderclap from the sky.
"It's strange, how can there be thunder this season? There are no clouds now, where does the thunder come from......" Pan Lizai raised his head curiously. Although he only stays here for three months a year, after four or five years, he is still very familiar with the local situation. What's more, the sky is cloudless now, and it doesn't look like there is thunder.
"Boom...... Boom ......" thunderous pop came from the northwest sky, constantly approaching.
The sound was so loud that even the inmates who were working hard couldn't help but raise their heads and talk about it. Although their minds are influenced by external forces, they still have the nature of living beings. After all, that thing only subtly affects them, not treating them as robots.
"No, it's not thunder......" Ban Chuanzhi listened for a moment and shook his head. As he spoke, he picked up his binoculars and looked at the sky.
I saw that three thin white lines suddenly appeared in the northwest sky, and quickly extended to this side.
