Chapter 1140 Isolation Zone

It seems that if you don't break into their interior, you have no chance to start.Li Siya kept thinking about this question on the boat back to Beigang.What I saw and heard today has strengthened my plan to send people to infiltrate the Australians.

It's a pity that the most suitable candidate: her breast sister has already appeared in front of them as a businessman, and she herself is not suitable. Although she seems to be the kind of woman who suits the taste of Australians, she used to be in that shopkeeper If you have shown your face in front of you, if you want to mix in the circle of elders, you are throwing yourself into a trap.

After thinking over and over again, she decided to make two decisions: First, let the young girl officially defect to the Australians and become a "person in the system". With her ship-handling skills and familiarity with Indian sea routes, the Australian Navy and the Colonial Department have always been There is a lot of love for her.Numei once said that the Australians recruited sailors all over the coast of Guangdong and Fujian, and they also expressed their intention to recruit her many times.If she offered to join the Australians, she would most likely be able to get a job in the navy—at least a captain.In this way, she will not be limited to business partners who only trade with Australians.Instead, they are naturalized people who can freely enter and exit many areas where outsiders are strictly prohibited from entering and exiting.Especially being able to integrate into the naval group.There must be more secrets to be mastered.

Second, immediately find a suitable young girl from her team as a maid to enter the circle of elders.She had this idea in the past, and now she has confirmed her idea more and more.If this is not possible, they have to send people to infiltrate the naturalized people and try to get as close to the Australians as possible.This is not just to complete this task, but also to make long-term plans.

If necessary, it is okay to sacrifice Zheng Zhilong's plan to ensure that his own people can gain the trust of Australians.

Although this will have a negative impact on her credit, the Australians will soon become the biggest force in East Asia, and she knows which is more important.

The secret of "Proof of the King of the Seven Seas" has become more and more out of reach as the Australians have stabilized their power. If they can't drive a wedge among them in time, they will be even more out of reach in the future.

"What are you going to do next?" Back in Beigang, Guo Huaiyi asked her.

"Send me a boat, I want to go back to Anping first!" Li Siya said.

Li Siya met Zheng Zhifeng in Anping, she probably put forward her plan, and asked Zheng Zhifeng to arrange some capable people to wait for her,
"I will send someone to contact them, and tell them to wait in Quanzhou."

After a heavy rain, the road to the port was washed out for quite a long way.Workers are working hard to clean up, shouting loudly, and pushing car after car of cinders to fill the road.

Due to road damage and rain erosion, the traffic from the port to downtown Kaohsiung was once again interrupted.

Hong Laojun pushed back his straw hat, suddenly yelled loudly at a labor team leader who was leading people to fill the roadbed, and then ordered a large stone roller pulled by horses to crush the newly paved road.

As the leader of the project team stationed here by Lingao Construction Company, Hong Laojun and his subordinate Shi Dafu are busy every day.

The infrastructure work in Kaohsiung City is basically carried out by their project team.During the period, Lingao Construction Company also sent some veterans to take temporary business trips to take charge of some more professional work.But the permanent ones are the two of them.

Right now, the main city, the fort and the port have been roughly completed. Apart from the daily minor repairs, the biggest project of the project team is now the water conservancy project.

The so-called water conservancy projects include not only the canal irrigation facilities of the state-owned farms developed by the Tainan Company, but also the functions of preventing seawater intrusion and soil drainage.

Although the Tainan Plain has excellent conditions for agricultural development, there are many deficiencies.

First of all, the soil here is more sandy, and summer and autumn are the periods of concentrated rainfall.It often causes small-scale mountain torrents and river flooding, often causing "mountains and rivers rushing down, rushing into ravines, accumulating quicksand, and ripening fields become barren soil." Therefore, it is necessary to build reservoirs, deepen river beds, and build canals to accommodate and discharge rainwater.Secondly, it is surrounded by mountains and the sea, and there is no embankment protection on the seashore. If the sea breeze is strong, the seawater will flood in, the land will be brine soaked, and the soil salinization will be serious.Although there is a lot of rain here, it can be replanted by fresh water flushing, but it will take several years to abandon it.After the Japanese occupied Taiwan, Hatta Yoichi spent a lot of effort in presiding over the construction of water conservancy projects in Tainan, which solved the problem of salinization of the coastal land in Tainan.

The municipal and port projects of the project team were roughly completed, and when water conservancy construction began, Wei Bachi specifically talked to Hong Laojun and Shi Dafu, asking them to fully implement the "Tainan Plain Water Conservancy Construction Outline" in the next step.

This outline was compiled by Wei Bachi, and the scale is very grand.After reading it, Hong Laojun and Shi Dafu felt that the stall was a bit too big——Wei Bachi actually compiled this outline based on the water conservancy projects in the Japanese era.

Hong Laojun inquired about the information on the Tainan water conservancy project brought by the old space-time Hatta and Yiyi, and felt that the cost of the coastal embankment project at this stage was too high. Although Wei Bachi said that there was no problem with the supply of manpower, the material was far behind.Therefore, the water conservancy project implementation plan he officially reported to the planning institute was limited to supporting irrigation and drainage channels and sluice gates for state-owned farms.

Even with the narrowed targets, progress on hydraulic projects remains slow.Channels and sluices should be built on leveled land, which depends on the speed of land reclamation.Although the difficulty of land reclamation in the Tainan Plain is not very great, it is a raw land after all, and it is not efficient to rely entirely on manpower. Moreover, various insects, snakes and malaria in the grass have caused great difficulties in land reclamation and construction.

When the grass and trees are relatively dry in winter, the Tainan United team has implemented many large-scale fires to drive away poisonous insects, beasts and insects.Then, with Kaohsiung City as the starting point, circular land reclamation began.This land reclamation action is not just for agriculture, but more for the establishment of a "sanitary isolation zone".

In order to minimize the loss of refugees, a slave route was specially opened from Sanya-because of the continuous import of quarks, there was no shortage of slaves in Tiandu, and there was even a surplus.

Under the surveillance of the militiamen of the Land Reclamation Team and Li Miao mercenaries, the slaves were jointly commanded by the construction company and the Council of Agriculture, and advanced 1.1 meters on the burned land.Wei Bachi gave them enough tools—although he didn't care about the death rate of slaves, consumption without tools was meaningless.

Puddles, small ponds, ditches with poor fluidity, and low-lying lands are all landfilled, and the remaining vegetation after burning is dug out for secondary incineration.All animals were killed and potholes filled.In some low-lying wetlands with dense grass and trees on the riverside that are difficult to catch fire, the landfill is directly carried out by manpower transporting soil to channelize the river.

Of course, this work seriously damaged the environment. During the implementation process, the human losses caused by malaria infection, beast and poisonous snake attack, and physical exhaustion were also quite heavy-dozens of slave bodies were thrown into the sea every day.

Relying on this violent method and the extensive use of screens, mosquito nets and other defensive methods, the rate of malaria infection and snake bites in the entire Kaohsiung refugee camp has dropped to a tolerable level.

After the establishment of this isolation zone, the land reclamation work officially began.Under the hydrothermal conditions in Tainan, if the wasteland is not immediately developed into farmland, the weeds and trees will quickly regain their lost ground during the rainy season—not to mention that the destructive damage to the bare ground caused by summer rain will be even greater.Land preparation and water conservancy works must be carried out with the utmost speed.

Today it's Shi Dafu's turn to "reclaim wasteland" - Hong Laojun is good at organizing large-scale infrastructure construction, so he is responsible for most of the water conservancy repairs. Today is considered a "rest", and he will be transferred to the urban area to do some minor repairs Work.

Hong Laojun's "rest" is actually no different from no rest. He kept yelling and scolding, and from time to time he had to personally guide the work of the construction workers-building bridges and repairing roads is a skilled job, and inexperienced workers do not like it. In fact, even the "backbone" who came from Lingao, in Hong Laojun's eyes, the level of work is also unbearable.

There are more than a dozen sections of the road that were washed away by rainwater. In the old time and space, with the same number of workers, as long as the materials are sufficient and no construction machinery is used, he can repair all of them within two hours of manual construction.But here, the repairs started at [-]:[-] in the morning, and the last ten meters of road surface have not been paved until [-]:[-] in the afternoon.

A flatbed truck loaded like a hill swayed and slowly pushed over with the sound of the workers' trumpets - the transport vehicles on the road had been lining up since the morning because the road was about to be repaired, and the stevedores who had been transferred away They were recalled by the dispatch room.

Hong Laojun looked at the unfinished road for a few meters, called the construction workers, and asked them to urge the workers to work harder to clear the road in the shortest possible time.

Still need to build a light rail.Hong Laojun looked at the vehicles waiting in line on the road.Even if it takes more manpower and material resources, the traffic efficiency is not comparable to this simple road.

Standing around the construction site all day gesticulating, his energy was exhausted by the heat and noise.Hong Laojun sat listlessly back on the rocking chair under the parasol, shaking his fan.The life secretary brought him iced lemonade.He took a few sips.He yawned, and while shaking the chair, he urged feebly: "Hurry up... hurry up..."

"Bang! Bang! Bang!..." There was a sudden burst of gunfire at the port, scaring Hong Laojun so much that he almost fell off the rocking chair. "What's going on! Where are the guns fired!" He yelled and quickly pulled out the pistol from his waist.
