Siheyuan: The Era of Core Generation

Chapter 159 Artificial Island

The moment the round hole was formed, a large amount of seawater began to pour in.But not long after, the seawater could no longer flow in under the action of the pressure below.

The small hole that Zhao Ye made was like pricking a small hole with a needle in a balloon.

Although small, it disrupted the pressure balance in the ground.

A large amount of high-temperature and high-pressure gas underground began to flow out of the ground along this channel.When encountering the surrounding sea water, it quickly evaporates the sea water, forming a cloud and mist, which sticks to the sea level.

The high-temperature and high-pressure gas erodes the stone wall of this small cave, and as many substances are brought out of the surface, the area of ​​the cave entrance continues to expand.

Finally, under the tremendous pressure of the seawater, the underground magma could no longer endure the endless years of torture, and began to squeeze out along this passage crazily, and finally reached the ground and sprayed into the air.

A loud noise made Zhao Ye, who was trying to run far away, almost capsized.

The shock waves formed by volcanic eruptions are not inferior to explosives.The shock wave engulfed the sea water, forming a wall of huge waves, rolling towards all directions.

Zhao Ye's boat capsized, but fortunately he had prepared in advance, Zhao Ye himself did not suffer much damage.

Looking at the crimson flames constantly spewing out in the distance, Zhao Ye was very excited.

This is much faster than his little bit of transporting sand and gravel.

After tidying up his boat, Zhao Ye set off again, and soon stood on a small island more than ten kilometers away from the place where he just "dig" the hole, observing the situation there with a telescope.

In the next half a year, Zhao Ye's "dug out volcanoes" continued to expand and increase, and the scope of influence gradually increased.Not only that, but according to his own needs, Zhao Ye successfully dug many holes and transported countless times of materials.

In the end, an island group formed according to Zhao Ye's planning and guidance finally revealed its proper appearance.

There are more than a dozen large and small islands in the entire island group. Some of these islands were formed by submarine volcanoes, and some were lifted out of the water by mountain movements caused by earthquakes.The largest island among them is the main island that Zhao Ye originally planned.

Originally, before the island was formed, there was a vast mountain range under its water.The part that leaked out of the head is just the coral growing on the mountains.

Due to Zhao Ye's "forceful" intervention, this mountain range has been lifted a lot under the rapidly changing geological conditions.Formed a continuous island group.Coupled with the effect of volcanoes, the land area of ​​this area has become even larger.

The largest main island is in the shape of a "Y". The highest crater is more than [-] meters above sea level. The area of ​​the entire island is more than [-] square kilometers.This is also the largest island built by Zhao Ye during his "island-building movement".This also makes this island the main island of the "artificial island group" in this area.The entire island group, Zhao Ye estimated that the total area must have exceeded hundreds of square kilometers.If this area is placed on land, it is nothing special.But if it is placed in this sea area, to put it bluntly, this is a battleground for military strategists.

Relying on this island, our country's international situation in the future will undergo a very big change.Even at the moment, although our navy is still relatively backward in development, relying on such a "emerged" island, our control over the entire South China Sea will increase infinitely.The influence on neighboring countries will increase exponentially.

Zhao Ye is sure that the behavior of occupying our island in future generations will never happen again.The reason is very simple. We have such a strategic fulcrum, and the forces that can be leveraged are not something these small countries around us dare to contend with.In the past, if we dared to take over by force, we could not come and stand.Now with this island, the situation is very different.

On this main island, towering craters extend in three directions, forming three strips of land.Because of Zhao Ye's deliberate choice, the terrain of the three lands is still relatively flat, covered with thick volcanic ash.

A large amount of volcanic ash fell into the sea, some sank to the bottom of the sea, and some were continuously sent to the shores of the islands by waves, continuously increasing the land area of ​​these islands.

Although the volcano is no longer erupting on a large scale, the interior of the volcano still has a high temperature and pressure, which makes the island surrounded by thick water vapor.

It was not until one or two months later that Zhao Ye landed on the island he "made" with his own hands again.

During this year, Zhao Ye almost used his ability to the extreme, and traveled around these islands in a boat every day.Constantly embellishing his greatest works.

Volcanoes have slowly cooled, and earthquakes have slowly become less common.Although white gas is gushing out from the crater all the time, Zhao Ye knows that those gases are nothing but water vapor that is heated from underground water after encountering extremely high temperature magma.

The water vapor is taking away the heat from the volcano, making it quiet again.

Zhao Ye officially set foot on this land today. Starting today, this place will become his new base in the next few years.

Excluding the large area occupied by the crater, the area left for Zhao Ye to use is more than 50 square kilometers. These places are now covered with thick volcanic ash.

In such a place, direct planting of plants is not acceptable.So during this year, Zhao Ye used his super power to take out a large amount of sand from the bottom of the sea, remove the salt from it, and mix it with the volcanic ash on land.

Today, some plants have begun to grow in the place transformed by Zhao Ye.Zhao Ye is confident that within a year or two, he will be able to cover most of the island with vegetation.

To the east of the crater is the largest strip of land, fifteen kilometers long overall and three kilometers wide at its widest point.On this land, Zhao Ye spent a lot of thought.

The overall strip-shaped land has a pattern of high in the east and low in the west. At the foot of the mountain near the crater, there is another pond with a size of more than 200 mu.There is plenty of precipitation here, and now there is some stagnant water in this pond.

After waiting for a while, the entire pond will be filled with rainwater, and then flow westward through the reserved river channel, and finally flow into a strip of land on the other side of the crater.

The other two bands of land form a rather small bay on the other side of the volcano.Like the two long arms of a volcano, it goes deep into the sea, forming a "natural" deep-water harbor.

Looking at the steam rising from the crater, Zhao Ye was also very excited.For the first time, he used the spatial capabilities provided by the system to accomplish things that humans can't even imagine.

Having not contacted the outside world for a year, Zhao Ye did not come here to be a savage.He built himself a hut with stones, and then took out a radio station from the space.

This radio station was not conjured out of thin air, but was "salvaged" by Zhao Ye from the nearby sea.

It was a Bald Eagle warship. When Zhao Ye was digging around, he happened to see this sunken ship.It didn't take long for the ship to sink, maybe just a year or two.This sea area was originally densely covered with hidden reefs. At that time, the ship also hit a reef and sank nearby.

Zhao Ye certainly couldn't let go of such a good thing.He used the nearby terrain to "dig out" a volcano under the ship, and use the energy of the magma to force the ship out of the water.It's just that this also caused half of the hull to merge with the magma, forming a spectacle.

Zhao Ye salvaged all the useful equipment on this boat, just for today's use.In addition to communication equipment, there are many other things that Zhao Ye could have, and Zhao Ye didn't let them go.Such as various motors, various tools, and most fortunately, a radar.

Although it is not an advanced radar, it is still possible to use it for navigation of nearby ships.If this thing is handed over to someone else, it is estimated that it can only be scrapped.But Zhao Ye is not someone else, no one is better at repairing things than him.

In addition to repairing, you have to build.For example, generators were created by him.The waves here surge towards the island every day. Zhao Ye used these waves to make a mechanical device, using the power of seawater to drive the machine to run.Finally, this mechanical energy is converted into electrical energy through a generator converted from a motor to provide power to his equipment.

Of course this radio station is broken, but it doesn't matter, Zhao Ye is best at repairing this, which has been recognized.But the power of this radio station is very low, and relying on this connection to the motherland thousands of miles away is just a dream.

But no matter what, Zhao Ye also went to college and studied radio.Through repairing, assembling and duplicating these rags, there is still the ability to make a long-distance radio station.

After the radio station was built, Zhao Ye began to send reports to the outside world according to a specific time.

Speaking of telegrams, Zhao Ye really doesn't know many domestic frequency band call signs.Fortunately, Capital University has a radio for external communication, and Zhao Ye still remembers its frequency band and call sign.

In this period, including later generations, many units have a radio signal tower on the building.This is to maintain the ability to communicate with the outside world when major disasters, wars, etc. occur.

Radio and television stations, universities, government agencies, large factories and mines, and even individual middle schools all have such equipment and buildings.

Following Zhao Ye's external contacts, radio waves traveled thousands of miles and reached the communication room of Capital University.

In the communication room of Capital University, there is a special person on duty.Although there is no one at night, there are no people here during the day.

At least the on-campus radio room of the Student Union is set up here.In addition, there are professors who bring students to visit and study, so as long as Zhao Ye grasps the time and sends the report persistently, someone will always receive it.
