readx;??? The discovery of oil, which was no less than a bombshell for these self-proclaimed senate traversers, immediately made the entire Oriental Port boil. Biquge.infow

"The exploration department must move right away!" Du Yande's voice began to change tone a little, "We must immediately confirm whether it is real oil there, and what is the quality of the oil, whether it is suitable for mining and refining, we need to find out." ”

"Don't worry, Lao Du," Zhou Lihang on the side sat on the seat and comforted, "You're too nervous." First of all, we definitely have to check what you said, and then we have to explore in the vicinity, determine the rock formations in the vicinity, and estimate the reserves. ”

"Will you do any of these?" Yang Minghuan didn't trust Zhou Lihang a little, you must know that there is absolutely no shortage of three-legged cats among the elders, and when they talk about the army, they are the head, but there are many blind people who are really working at the beginning, if it weren't for the advanced equipment they brought to make up for a lot of defects, I am afraid that there would have been a lot of mistakes a long time ago.

"I won't." Zhou Lihang shook his head, "We don't have any oil exploration professionals in our exploration department, but we have a lot of information, even if we learn and sell it now, it's better than the natives of this time and space to catch the blind." ”

"By the way, isn't it said that there are many different qualities of oil? It can be divided into ultra-sweet crude oil, sweet crude oil, sour crude oil and sour crude oil. The higher the sulfur content, the greater the pollution to the air. Yang Minghuan is quite concerned about the matter of oil polluting the atmosphere, "It would be a pity if we went to the new time and space and made this time and space the same as the old time and space." He shook his head as he spoke, he was very touched by the freshness of the air in this plane, and he was quite satisfied with his choice to abandon the high-tech life of the old time and space and come to this new plane full of birds pooping.

"Well, we are now absolutely overstretched by the lack of fuel, and even those oil shales that are not suitable for refining are used in large quantities, and if it is really oil, it is not used because of the high sulfur content in it, which is ......," Zhang Yuan obviously disagreed with Yang Minghuan's view.

"Yes, our demand for petroleum products has reached its most severe time," Xiao Jing agreed with Zhang Yuan's statement, "almost all the motor vehicles are lying on their stomachs, only a few motorcycles are left to run from time to time, and all the motor vessels of the navy are stopped, leaving only the last bit of war-ready fuel, which is only enough for a cruiser to run a hundred nautical miles at sea." If war breaks out at this time, we will most likely not even have the strength to maneuver by sea. ”

"That's right," Zhang Yuan said, "The sea maneuver is still secondary, the lubricant produced through oil is the most important, our current reserves of lubricating oil have long exceeded the warning value, if I am not mistaken, now there should only be about two barrels of ordinary lubricating oil, and two barrels of lubricating oil should be supplied to the entire industrial system of Dongfang Port, which is no different from the Arabian Nights." ”

"That's not all," said Shi Li, who had gradually risen in the Senate's industrial system since the start of his chemical plant, and had now become a regular on the Senate Executive Committee...... Of course, he was a frequent visitor, Shi Li smiled, "Don't forget the products of petroleum in the chemical system, I won't say more, I just remind you, the rainy season in Annan is coming soon, and now it has begun to rain from time to time, if we don't hurry up to find a way to harden the road surface, our road surface is likely to be damaged due to long-term soaking, the biggest possible way in the existing conditions is to use asphalt, one of the main sources of asphalt is oil." ”

"Yes, oil is the most lacking industrial raw material now, and we even have to pinch our noses and use those substandard oil shales, so don't be too picky about whether the oil contains sulfur." Sun Wenbin smiled and said, "After all, hungry people can't pick and choose fat and thin." ”

"Then there are a few more questions." Du Yande interrupted, "The place where the explorers are going is the place where the fighting has just broken out, and now the reinforcements have not yet arrived at the battlefield, and the planes have begun to rush back, we don't know the specific situation over there, the casualties on both sides of the enemy and us, and whether the bandits have really retreated, we can't be sure." If you go to explore this time, you must be prepared for a battle at any time. ”

"If you do this, you can mobilize some units of our air force to protect it." He Rolling Long immediately found an opportunity to speak. Now that the main forces of the army have been carrying out anti-bandit operations outside for almost a whole month, they are exhausted and have suffered many casualties, and it is indeed not suitable to continue to let them carry out their tasks outside. At this time, the Marine Corps was basically responsible for the defense of the entire Oriental Harbor, and the existing strength was still somewhat stretched, and it was almost impossible to transfer troops to protect the exploration team. In comparison, although the Air Force only has a company or so at this time, the only task it needs to undertake is to guard the airport, and the vicinity of the airport is surrounded by barbed wire, which is probably enough for a platoon, and there is no need to maintain the aircraft now. So he immediately stood up on his own. "The Airborne Forces can send a platoon to protect the exploration team's exploration activities throughout the process."

"Poof......" Xiao Mingwei was originally drinking tea, and when he heard this, he immediately squirted out the tea in his mouth, and he didn't care about wiping the tea that came out, and pointed at He Rolling Longdao, "Airborne troops??" When did you have this organization? ”

"A few days ago, ah......" the latter looked innocent, "I discussed with Yuan Zhenli, it is impossible for the aircraft to be installed in a short period of time, the scale of the air force is now at the company level, anyway, combat training is being carried out every day, it is better to simply reorganize the airborne troops and put them into airborne operations at any time." ”

"But......" Du Yande couldn't help but stutter, "but you don't even have a transport plane." ”

"Yes," He Rolling Long looked proud, "Airborne troops don't have to be transport planes, Liu Shenhong found us some time ago and said that we can build airships." ”

"Yes, yes! After our chemical department is put into operation, we will be able to produce hydrogen! When the time comes, I can provide you with an airship. Shi Li finally found a place where he could give full play to his expertise, and said happily.

"No, no, no!" He Rolling Dragon shook his hands straight, "Hydrogen doesn't work, absolutely not!" He didn't pay any attention to Shi Li's black face and just said to himself, "The tragedy of Hindenburg is not enough? Hydrogen itself is something that can be burned, and our sealing means at this stage are definitely not enough, if it leaks, whoever owes it there will light a cigarette or something, and it will immediately become a super torch. ”

"Yes, the safety of hydrogen is too low," Xiao Mingwei also agreed with He Rolling Long's opinion, "And the airship must provide fire support in the air, which of the current weapons is not fire-breathing, if there is an accident in the air, I am afraid that there is no place to escape." Moreover, even if it is used to transport troops and supplies, if it is intercepted by the enemy during take-off and landing, in case it is ignited by the enemy's rocket or something, it will be considered a great achievement of the enemy. ”

"But the matter of the airship must be inseparable from the support of the chemical department," Xiao Mingwei is a man in his fifties, and his life experience is much richer, and he knows that Shi Li is unhappy at a glance. "I remember the airships of the old plane used helium, right? I don't know how that thing came about, but I think it must be inseparable from the chemical department, so it must have been the efforts of the comrades in the chemical department to build the airship. ”

Shi Li immediately nodded, "That's right, helium is a noble gas, and it basically doesn't react with other elements. Generally speaking, helium production in the old spacetime was made from natural gas...... The kind of natural gas that contains about 7% helium is extracted. If our technical level goes up in the future, we can also extract it from liquid air by fractionation. ”

"Oh!" He Rolling Long also understood Xiao Mingwei's words, and hurriedly nodded: "Yes, the development of the airship in the future will still rely on the support of the chemical department!" ”

Shi Li was patted on the back, so he was naturally overjoyed, and he patted his chest busily and promised: "No problem, this matter is on us......"

"Aren't we talking about the conservation work of the exploration team?" Du Yande couldn't help but be a little stunned, "The army and the Marine Corps are sure that they can't draw people, right?" ”

"We're understaffed." Wu Di said that since the expansion of the navy, he, the commander-in-chief of the Marine Corps, was called back to the cruiser for a long time, and only returned to the Marine Corps this month. As soon as he returned to the Marine Corps, he was immediately pushed to the front by Xue Ziliang and assumed the position of Chief of Staff of the Marine Corps, and Xue Ziliang served as the commander-in-chief of the Marine Corps. "All of our current forces are responsible for the defense of the city, and in fact we are still in a situation of insufficient manpower, and we will definitely not be able to send people to defend it."

"It's hard to say how many people we have," Xiao Mingwei said, "The army has put all its troops into this anti-bandit operation, and even two companies of the recruit company have been sent to escort supplies and be responsible for logistics and security, and they have not even been issued rifles, only spears." After the month-long anti-bandit operation, our officers and men not only suffered casualties, but were also very tired, and the logistics could not keep up, and many companies responded to the lack of ammunition, and some even averaged less than 10 rounds of ammunition per person. Such a stockpile of ammunition simply cannot support a small-scale battle, so the army urgently needs to recuperate, so today in the name of the Joint Chiefs of Staff issued an order to stop the banditry. ”

"As for the Navy, the sailors of our Navy...... Not very suitable for action on land. Yang Junbo said with a smile, "The weapons we distribute are mainly heavy ship-based weapons, and it will be difficult to use them if they are brought ashore." ”

"Okay, then entrust the Air Force with the defense." Du Yande said, and at the same time he turned to Zhou Lihang, "Old Zhou, what equipment do you need this time, write the application form later, and you can go to the warehouse of the Planning Commission to get it after we sign it." ”

"Don't you need it, do you?" Sun Wenbin said on the side, "In fact, the warehouse of the Planning Commission has always been a warehouse of veterans, and the things in it are all materials and equipment from the old time and space, and it is impossible for the indigenous naturalized people of this time and space to know what it is for, and it is completely impossible to claim it. ”

"That's not going to work," Cheng Jun almost jumped up, "how can this be?" I'm not looking down on the veterans, but some of us are not very conscious, or just don't care about the equipment, and several of the equipment we brought have been damaged, but fortunately they are all repairable damage. If it can't be repaired, how will it be used in the future? In particular, all of you know that personnel who have not received special training do not know how to use it at all, and if any veteran can take it out and toss it, then in the future, the Planning Commission will only have all kinds of damaged tools and materials left in the warehouse. ”

"Okay, okay!" Sun Wenbin hurriedly spread his hands, "I was wrong, I'm sorry, let's let the exploration department apply." ”

"Okay," Zhou Lihang immediately stood up, "then I'll go and gather people, get ready to go, and then we can set off after receiving the materials and exploration equipment from the warehouse." ”

"Okay! On behalf of the Senate, we would like to express our sincere gratitude to your exploration department for their hard work! Yang Minghuan hurriedly stood up and said to Zhou Lihang.

"For the sake of the Senate, as it should be, the cause of the Senate is our cause!" Zhou Lihang smiled, picked up the notebook and pencil on the table and got up and left.

============================= divider =============================

The mosquito machine was already on the way back at this time, because it was still using an electric motor, and there were no solar panels installed on the plane, so the plane only had a set of batteries left at this time. Yuan Zhenli had just driven the plane around the battlefield several times, because the bandits had already fled into the dense forest, it was impossible to judge it visually, and neither machine guns nor grenades could penetrate the dense forest to strike at the bandits inside, so he could only give up the attack.

Although hundreds of bandits were killed on the gentle slope, no one knows whether the will to fight of these bandits was completely destroyed, and it is not certain that the planes rushed up as soon as they left. When they came to support, the people on the plane saw the soldiers fighting with the bandits, presumably without ammunition. Therefore, Yuan Zhenli ordered the bomber and the machine gunner to stop attacking the ground target, but to unload the bullet from the ammunition supply plate, then put it in a wooden box, tie it to a parachute, and throw it from the air.

Wu Wenshan saw the box dropped from the plane, he knew very well that this was an ammunition box, but he couldn't understand how it could be thrown directly from such a high place, this height of dozens of zhang, if it fell to the ground, it would not fall apart, maybe the bullet would be broken.

However, something happened that made him blind, and the box suddenly slammed in the air, and a huge cloth umbrella appeared on top of the box, carrying the box slowly towards the ground. He couldn't help but admire the ingenuity of the chiefs to come up with such a brilliant way to airdrop ammunition. He patted a few soldiers beside him on the shoulder and said excitedly, "Go get that box!" It's definitely a bullet inside! We don't have to fight the bandits with bayonets anymore! ”
