Chen Xin looked at the person in charge of the Military Management Committee who was sitting opposite and sighed, "No wonder, no wonder you just proposed that you need to send at least 5,000 soldiers with high loyalty to the Military Management Commission to help." Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoSo, do you have a detailed plan? ”

"Your Majesty, we do have a detailed plan, and the preliminary investigation has been completed, otherwise, we would not dare to put forward such a big plan."

"Let's talk about it."

"Yes." As he spoke, he got up and walked to the latest "national map" hanging in Chen Xin's office, pointed to it and began to explain.

"Our newly occupied areas are hilly and mountainous, with few plains, and although there are many rivers, most of the water flows into the sea due to the lack of irrigation facilities, which does not provide good help to agriculture.

Therefore, we intend to block the estuaries of most rivers and intercept the amount of water while preserving almost all of the plains. This is just the first step.

In the course of a long project, these coastal dams will increase in height and width year by year as the amount of water intercepted increases.

In the first year, we didn't need to pay much in terms of manpower and materials. As for the future, this is also a year-on-year increase, and finally after reaching a peak, there will be no more changes.

This step is to lay the foundation for subsequent actions.

The second step, almost at the same time as the first step, is to excavate irrigation facilities in the sparsely populated plains to make all the land on the plains. All can be covered by water conservancy facilities to increase our unit grain production.

We don't make big moves on the rivers that flow directly through the plains, because no one wants the fertile fields on the plains to be flooded. We intercept rivers that flow mostly in the hills and mountains.

This brings us to our third step plan.

In the third step, we will use manpower to repair some hills and connect them together on the basis of changing the original topography as little as possible.

As the dam at the mouth of the sea increases year by year, the amount of water in the river continues to increase, and we will gradually use these hills and mountains as water storage areas, turning the big river into a big river.

With this step, the area where water is scarce will become like a water town, and we can build villages and towns along the way in the area where the river flows.

And these villages and towns will have abundant water resources.

The scale of paddy fields can be continuously expanded through the construction of water conservancy facilities.

Economical trees can be planted in hills and mountains where water is scarce.

Even because the large amount of goods produced can be exchanged directly by boat, the loss and time of land transportation are reduced, and the villages and towns along the route can no longer practice the self-sufficient small-scale farming model.

The large-scale and singular cooperative planting model can be realized by relying on the convenient water transportation model.

For example, because of the large-scale and single-scale planting model, a cotton processing factory can be set up in the town to directly sell semi-finished cotton or finished cotton products to other places.

And the grain they consumed could be bought from the money from selling cotton products from one of the towns upstream, where all the grain was grown and a grain processing factory was set up in the town.

For a celebration in Town A, you need alcohol, which you can buy from another town that specializes in making alcohol.

Large-scale, intensive, single production, is conducive to reducing costs, and because of the sufficiency of raw materials, you can directly build factories in the origin of raw materials, reduce the transportation of raw materials, greatly reduce the cost of products, more convenient for factories to dump products at the lowest price, and increase the competitive advantage of their own products.

We can even build industrial parks along the way, and realize the division of labor between upstream and downstream through water transportation.

For example, a professional hull manufacturer was established at the top of the river, and after the hull was built, the hull was carried out downstream and the inside of the hull was built in the next factory, and then it continued downstream, the deck was laid in the third factory, the power plant was installed in the fourth factory, the commissioning was carried out on the road to the fifth factory, where the transmission machinery was installed, the guns were installed in the sixth factory, and the painting was applied in the seventh factory.

Finally, sail directly to the mouth of the sea through a large river with abundant water and set sail out to sea. ”

Chen Xin listened to the surging enthusiasm, in this era like a dumpling manufacturing boat, it sounds very emotional, big industry is a man's romance.

As for the question of how to go to sea when the outlets to the sea are blocked, Chen Xin doesn't care at all.

Since the CMC already has a plan in this regard, the construction of a dam at the mouth of the sea must be in the style of a segmented and movable one, like the Suez Canal and the Panama Canal.

Although there are no two canals in this era, Chen Xin believes that the members of the Military Management Commission and the researchers under him will definitely have a way to solve this problem.

Professional matters should be handled by professional personnel, and Chen Xin is reluctant to interfere too much.

Chen Xin just quietly listened to the other party's introduction.

"Then comes the fourth step.

The first three steps of the plan can only give us the construction of a few small industrial clusters scattered in different places.

In order to finally realize the integration of all the industrial forces here, and realize the ability to make large industrial equipment in the dumplings mentioned in our plan, there is no need to take the fourth step.

The fourth step is to use more human resources, and we will dig new channels or change the original channels between the major rivers that have completed the initial water storage without changing the original topography on a large scale as much as possible, so as to connect those large rivers together.

In this way, in the next few years, all the villages, towns, and industrial areas that we have established along the river will be connected by easy shipping.

Your Majesty, according to our preliminary calculations, in fact, most of the areas along the way do not need to be changed, all we have to do is to block the mouth to the sea, and then take advantage of the situation to plug some of the occasional faults.

We consulted a large number of local and county records, calculated the approximate water volume of the large rivers in the previous 100 years, and found that the entire project can actually be divided into different periods according to the accumulation of water volume.

The first phase of the project is the simplest, it only takes half a year to complete, and there is no need to delay the spring sowing work, as long as all these people are organized during the slack period, and they can work as soon as possible. ”
