Chapter 581: Oil
The oil thing, so to speak, was a joke on the Japanese by God. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Because we all know that China has oil, not only but also a lot, and this oil-producing area is precisely in the northeast of China...... Modern Daqing Oilfield.
(Note: The location of the Daqing Oilfield is near Xingren Town, and there is no name "Daqing" at this time, it was taken after the discovery of the oilfield)
The oil production of this oil field can be said to far exceed the demand of the Japanese army in World War II, but the Japanese were stunned to find it for more than ten years in the puppet Manchukuo under their control.
The reason why I didn't find it was not because the Japanese were technologically backward.
In fact, the technology of the Japanese at this time was already able to extract oil at a depth of 2,000 meters, while the depth of the "Daqing" oil field was only about 1,100 meters.
This is not because the Japanese did not look for it in Manchukuo.
Japan is a country with severe resource shortages, and they especially need oil to wage war...... Later, Japan even went to war with the United States for oil, which shows how much importance Japan attaches to oil.
So, from the time Japan invaded the three northeastern provinces...... In fact, it should have been before the invasion that Japan had sent a team of scouts into the northeast, and this scout did not end until the defeat and surrender of the Japanese army.
However, no matter how the Japanese look for it, there is no shadow of oil, so the Japanese can only helplessly think that China is an "oil-poor country".
The reason why the Japanese could not find oil was mainly because geologists at that time, especially Japanese geologists, generally believed that oil was formed from the mud of the seabed...... At least the mud at the bottom of the sea looks like oil, and oil does come out of the sea a lot, so quite a few people believe in it.
Therefore, it is natural that the Japanese will focus on exploring and searching in coastal areas such as Qingdao and Dalian, and other places will be non-key incidental searches.
It would have been fine...... Even if it is unusual, the Japanese army has controlled the puppet Manchukuo for more than ten years, and it is time to find Daqing if you are looking for more than ten years!
However, the problem is that Japan has limited human resources, and in order to be able to explore as wide as possible with these limited manpower, the Japanese have decided to focus on drilling 2,000-meter wells in the search areas and 1,000-meter wells in non-key areas.
There is oil in Qingdao, but the oil layer is 6,000 meters, and it is impossible to find a well of 2,000 meters.
There is oil in Daqing, but the oil layer is 1,100 meters, and it is impossible to find a well of 1,000 meters......
This is the sad part of Japan.
Therefore, when China drilled a 1,100-meter well in Daqing and discovered a large oil field, Japanese scholars were in mourning...... If Japan had found the Daqing oil field during World War II, then Japan would not have needed to attack Pearl Harbor, so Japan might not have been defeated, and the entire history of World War II could have been rewritten......
But history has no ifs.
Of course Zhang Chi knew about it...... The reputation of Daqing Oilfield is too loud, if you don't know, it's lonely.
But Zhang Chi knows that he must be cautious in this matter, and be cautious and cautious!
The reason is very simple, if a well is drilled near Xingren Town at this time to reorganize the "Daqing Oilfield", then the Northeast will basically be able to meet all the needs of Japan...... It is rich in iron ore, coal, natural gas and the most important strategic resource, oil.
Needless to say, what this means for the Japanese.
If the Japanese knew that there was a large oil field in Tohoku, it might be possible that they would have planned to move Japan to Tohoku...... For this reason, they will concentrate all their forces to carry out a flanking attack on the northeast and retake the northeast.
Zhang Chi didn't want this to happen, so the best option now was to pretend that he didn't know anything.
But it's one thing to pretend you don't know, and it's another to recruit talent.
So Zhang Chi immediately asked Staff Officer Liang to arrange a meeting with Wentian Zuoxiong.
"Professor Fumita!" Zhang Chi said to Bunda Zuoxiong, who was sitting precariously: "I heard that you helped the army to test oil? ”
"Yes, sir!" Wentian Zuoxiong replied in Chinese, which surprised Zhang Chi.
But it's not surprising to think about it, Bunda Sao teaches at a university, of course, he needs to know some Chinese.
"But...... That's all what the military demanded! Fumida Sao explained: "Moreover, we didn't find it either, we didn't find it!" ”
I was a little relieved to see Fumida Sao being relaxed like this, most of the Japanese soldiers were very tough, but not necessarily the Japanese were like this.
It should be said that the more educated the Japanese are, the more spineless they are...... Only those with a low level of education will be brainwashed by the set of militarism.
"Mr. Fumida misunderstood!" Zhang Chi comforted Fumida Sao and said: "I don't blame you for looking for oil for the Japanese military, and at the same time I know that the military has not found oil, if it finds oil...... You don't need to attack the United States, do you? ”
"Yes...... Fumida nodded busily, as if secretly relieved.
"I'm looking for you this time...... I hope that you can train a group of technicians who can prospect for oil and extract oil, can Mr. Fumida do that? ”
"What do you mean to say......" Fumida Sao was full of doubts: "You still let me go back to school to teach?" ”
"No, it's not a school!" Zhang Chi replied: "It's in the barracks......"
The reason why Fumida Sao was to be arranged to teach in the barracks was because this matter was not trivial, and if the news leaked, there might be unexpected dangers.
Looking at the surprise on Wentian Zuoxiong's face, Zhang Chi continued: "It's no difference, isn't it? It's just that the location of the teaching is different! ”
"Why?" Fumida Zuoxiong was a little puzzled: "Full ...... No, there is no oil in the Northeast. Moreover, you are allies of the United States, and you can easily learn this technology from the United States! ”
Fumida Sao asked the point, and the answer was that there was oil in the Northeast, and Zhang Chi did not want the United States to get a piece of the pie.
Of course, these words naturally cannot be said to Fumida Sao.
Zhang Chi replied lightly: "I'm just using the human resources that can be used...... If Mr. Fumida refuses......"
Zhang Chi shrugged his shoulders as he spoke, which meant obviously, if he refused this request, he would be sent to the Fengman Hydropower Station to do hard labor.
"No, no, of course I do!" Fumida Zuoxiong immediately agreed, and he bowed respectfully: "Please rest assured, I will definitely cultivate a group of qualified talents for Your Excellency...... In addition, as a sign of sincerity, I have a lot of testing equipment and materials left in the school, and I hope you can prepare them! ”
"Of course!" Zhang Chi didn't say a word, so he asked Staff Officer Liang to arrange a few cars for Wentian Zuoxiong, and he left him to choose what Wentian Zuoxiong needed or even who he needed to be an assistant teacher.
