Super military empire

Although the construction of Yongxing Island started for a long time, it did not have a large scale.

The current construction methods are quite different from the Republic’s start of blowing sand to build land 30 years later. There are differences in technology. More importantly, Liu Yijiu chose a more secure construction method-adding reinforced concrete. Structure to strengthen the strength of artificial land.

After all, when the Republic was built that year, due to technical demonstration problems, large-scale repairs were carried out on the land that was later expanded on Yongxing Island, which was a very large expenditure.

Now, I would rather have a longer construction time and a higher cost. Liu Yijiu must also build this side into an extremely strong military base!

Yongxing Island, the largest island in the Paracel Islands, has no military port and the surrounding sandbanks make it impossible for warships to dock, and there is no supply base. Usually warships just pass by and rarely stop here.

Now that two huge warships are stationed outside the island, they immediately aroused the cheers of the fishermen who were resting on the island, and waved their hands to this side across the shore.

The above is starting to build, but the fishermen who spend most of the time on it are very happy. After all, although there is fresh water on the island, because of the pollution of bird droppings, it can only be used for washing and cannot be consumed.

After the expansion of the island, a number of people's livelihood projects were first constructed, such as fresh water purification plants, power plants, post offices, and so on.

The fishermen on the island no longer have to go to the South Island to purchase supplies for living supplies.

The country began to invest in construction in the South China Sea, which made them very happy.

In the past, they were the main force in the protection of China's rights and interests in the South China Sea. Now, the arrival of soldiers, the occasional cruises of warships, and even the air force patrolling here all make everyone feel that they are safe and they only need to fish.

In the future, perhaps, many warships will be docked here...

"Master, why are you here?" When the fishing boat on the island took Liu Yijiu and the others from the warship, Qin Huaibao, who was dispatched here, was full of disbelief.

He didn't have a chance to survive. Liu Yijiu sent him back to the base from the logistics department. After the child was born, he kicked him to the island and was responsible for the construction of the island.

"Come here to fish for sharks, and take a look at the progress of the construction. How about it, are you still used to it?" Liu Yijiu was very angry with this apprentice who was several years older than him.

On the Nanhai side, he wouldn't be unable to control his belt.

Fishermen, there are very few young people, if he tastes heavy, then...

"The construction progress here is very slow, but with the improvement of the basic supporting projects, the construction speed here will be faster and faster..." Qin Huaibao naturally knew his problem and introduced the situation to Liu Yijiu. .

Now he is far from the old attitude of not putting the world's heroes in his eyes.

"Take me to see on the island..." Liu Yijiu boarded this island for the first time, which had occupied the headlines of China and even the world for a long time in their world.

The primitive island environment is very attractive. Even Li Rui, a seasick person, was deeply attracted by the beauty of the island.

"The island is 1,850 meters long from east to west and 1,160 meters wide from north to south. According to the construction drawings you provided, the main task at present is to build an airport in the west and expand the port in the east. At present, our project is mainly based on the needs of these two aspects. ..." Qin Huaibao introduced the situation as he walked.

"How much progress has been completed?" The Republic's 16 months that year expanded the area of ​​the island by 40%. Liu Yijiu knew that the current technology and investment scale could not be compared. The plan was to expand the island in four years. The area is expanded by 50%.

"The expansion of the seaport is currently about one-fifth of the progress. The construction of the foundation of the airport has just begun. During this time, the monkey's warships have been continuously investigating here. They have robbed several islands in front... …" Qin Huaibao sighed.

"Isn't there a warship patrolling here? Didn't the monkey's warship be expelled?" Liu Yijiu's brow wrung into a deep Sichuan character again.

"It's useless. The number of warships in our South China Sea Fleet is small, and the tonnage is not large. Moreover, even if there is air force patrol, when the air force comes, they will run away..." The construction of Yongxing Island will benefit the rights and interests of the entire South China Sea. , A person who understands can think clearly.

"Well, Zhengchou is too boring these few days..." Although the shark was caught, the shark was too courageous and ran into it.

If the monkey can voluntarily bump into it, naturally it cannot be missed.

The monkey backed by the Soviet Union is now so arrogant...

That night, Liu Yijiu and others just rested on the island for one night. As the person in charge of construction here, Qin Huaibao, a reform-through-labor prisoner who cannot appear outside the public eye, has all the preferential treatment of technicians from the Ninth Hospital, even his family members. They are all settled here.

If nothing happens, they will make their home here.

Wang Zixin was very grateful for Liu Yijiu's arrangement, but that night she took out all her housekeeping skills to rectify the shark.

Early the next morning, Liu Yijiu and others boarded the warship, and the two warships sailed towards the Paracel Islands. Liu Yijiu insisted on going there.

Although Feng Suhang was very opposed to his decision, Deng Jianjun and others also expressed their opposition with some unspeakable purposes. Under the harsh request of Director Liu, there was not much opposition.

The Paracel Islands are composed of the Yongle Islands and the Xuande Islands. There are 22 islands, 7 sandbars, and more than 10 reefs. This generation has a saying that half of fish and half of water are fish. The fishery resources are rich, from 50 Since the beginning of the decade, the conflicts between Vietnam and China on this issue have not been rare. Even though the Vietnamese government recognized China’s sovereignty over the Paracel Islands and the Spratly Islands in 58, under the expansion of military power and the instigation of the US and the Soviet Union, it has been Both began to snatch these islands in China.

After all, the Paracel Islands are closer to Vietnam, and Chinese fighters simply cannot conduct effective patrols in this area.

In 1956, the Saigon government of South Vietnam occupied the Coral Island of the Paracel Islands. In 1974, the Vietnamese troops occupied Ganquan Island and Treasure Island. On January 19 of that year, the Paracel Sea battle broke out and the Vietnamese troops were expelled from the entire Paracel Islands.

Yongxing Island belongs to the Xuande Islands. Not far to the west, there are even larger Yongle Islands. These islands were once taken back by the Republican Navy. However, due to technical reasons and supply problems, there are not too many outposts established there. They are all stationed by fishermen.

Now the Vietnamese are backed by the Soviets, and the American imperialism has an ambiguous attitude on this, which gives the Vietnamese an opportunity.

Now the Vietnamese know that they can't continue to seduce China, so they learn to be smart. They no longer occupy the islands of Xisha. Fishing boats are fishing desperately here, and warships are also wandering here.

Moreover, the Nansha Islands further south invaded and occupied Chinese territory. The Chinese fighters here were not far away. Moreover, because of the small tonnage and limited range of warships, it was difficult to entangle them there.

The Yongle Islands are only forty nautical miles away from Yongxing Island, and it only takes more than an hour for two huge warships to drive at full force.

"I heard that the fishermen here often encounter Vietnamese fishing boats in the Xisha waters, and conflicts will eventually occur?" Liu Yijiu asked Qin Huaibao who was following the ship.

"No, those bastards have guns. At first they were just hit by fishing boats. When there were more fishing boats on our side, they began to put some earthen guns on the fishing boats..." Qin Huaibao gritted his teeth.

The situation here is not optimistic at all.

"How many fishing boats are here now?"

"Much..." There is no fishing moratorium and no ocean fishing boats. The fishermen on the two islands are all fishing around the Paracel Islands.

"Director Liu, nothing was found here, or let's go back..." Feng Suhang didn't dare to mess around like Liu Yijiu and the others.

Once a large-scale conflict with the Vietnamese arose, he was finished.

This ship belongs to the North Sea Fleet...

"What's the rush? Old Deng, your test hasn't been completed yet? The supplies on the ship are full. How about a trip to the Nansha Islands? Anyway, we are still in the waters of the Republic. We have not gone abroad, nor violated discipline..." Liu Yijiu didn't want to go back like this.

"Director Liu, let's forget about it in the South China Sea. Don't you want to fish for sharks? The one like that last night was not big enough for the guys. Or else, just catch it here for a while?" What does Liu Yijiu want, Jian Deng The army is very clear.

Surely he can't let him mess around.

They have been in the South China Sea for a long time, and naturally they know that Vietnam has invaded and occupied the islands of the Republic in the South China Sea.

The Vietnamese in Xisha are not so bold.

"Yeah, Director Liu, the Nansha Islands are thousands of kilometers away from here. It takes several days to come and go..." Wu Tianhai didn't want Liu Yijiu to be involved.

If something happens to Liu Yijiu, don't talk about them, even the entire Ninth Academy will be finished.

"..." Liu Yijiu was speechless, he could not drive the warship to the south alone."Then go west and see our comrades fishermen fishing. New Year's Eve is about to come. Our Ninth Hospital needs a lot of seafood. By then, we will collect all their catches..."

Anyway, just not reconciled.

"The report chief, our ship received a radio distress signal... 30 nautical miles southwest of the relay island, Chinese fishermen clashed with Vietnamese fishermen, and the Vietnamese army sent warships..." The soldier wearing the headset ran to the deck to face Captain Feng Suhang's report!
