Chapter 1029:Huge Spending

Starting from the Chaga Peninsula, along the northern Pacific Ocean, it took two years, and in a long time, it was a little bit of luck for the fixed navy.

In fact, this route, starting from the survey and the Canadian Peninsula, is more than 3,000 kilometers, if you are lucky, it may be months, or even a year.

If there is a definite direction, in the direction of the ocean, in the same way as Europe, the method of using human relay may be explored in at most half a year, as long as it pays enough.

The cost is a great cost of human life, which is unacceptable to the Navy, and although the Navy has paid a considerable price in the scope of the whole exploration, from the very beginning, attention has been paid to protection, logistics, casualties are within the acceptable range, so that the speed is much slower.

Although it is slow, but this route, but quite solid, the Navy can be sure that every step forward, he is solid, every step, can be copied, follow-up personnel and ships, can be based on this channel, smooth forward, and, the logistics support are played to the extreme.

Yes, it is to play to the extreme, not to mention the sea-cutting ship and the Spanish sailing ship, specifically for the ocean voyage and the existence of seagoing ships, that is to say that the former Chinese sailing ship, such a ship if he relies on the logistics system built by the fixed navy, it is also very likely to cross the sea.

Of course, the Chinese sailing ship is a kind of offshore capsizing, he can cross the ocean, but the premise is that in the distance from the land is not too far away, the crossing position will not be very far, 200 to 300 kilometers, this limit position, for the crossing of the Pacific Ocean, it is possible, but once encountered a large wind and waves, this is not good, it is likely to be overturned.

In the era of navigation, when is not dangerous, even which was the most famous ship, when he was alive, was a star when he was alive, and it has always been a legend in the middle of a hundred years after his death, and finally was moved to the screen by the driver, becoming the most famous film in history, and has been insisting on more than ten years until the emergence of another film of the driver.

Even so, the application of a lot of science and technology, can be said to be the peak of the ship at that time, will sink, and even in the 21st century, the application of countless high-tech means, satellite navigation, and even radar and other advanced means of oceangoing ships, will be due to encounter bad weather and captivation, not to mention this era.

Zhao Xin almost the logistics, the support to achieve the ultimate, in the Kamchatka peninsula across more than 2000 kilometers of the voyage, a total of 16 supply base, according to the distance, the longest distance of the two supply base is 320 kilometers, the nearest distance is only 180 kilometers.

That is to say, according to the speed of the ship, go all out to reach a base in a day, and even the Spanish sailing ship, about 8 knots of speed, about 15 kilometers per hour, 12 hours a day also has 180 kilometers, up to two days.

That is, the Chinese sailing ship, will be a little slower, but also about 4 days, if it is a good wind, it will be faster, such a base, coupled with a small base, is enough to ensure safety, unless, like the sea, four do not rely on the premise, encountered enough to cover the wind and waves of ships and fleets.

In the Pacific, the possibility of encountering wind and waves may be much smaller, but it is not without, under normal circumstances, there is a certain danger, not to mention that when the detection, the Navy can do it, that is, to reduce the possibility of such danger to the maximum, rather than completely reduce, which is impossible in the 21st century.

On the top of the search chart, a total of 16 largest bases have been set up, and there are at least 120 or so small supply bases.Basically, in the occupation of a large-scale development, and have enough land base, a steady stream of materials on the transport, do not need to find and then report, this is determined, at all costs, must open a road to North America under the premise, so the perfect logistics guarantee, become the key.

The key to assistance is actually the base from 800 kilometers away, which is one of the three largest bases in the entire North Pacific Ocean, and the three most important positions in the entire exploration fleet.

In the process of exploration, in the key location, a total of six islands more than 1500 square kilometers of large, such islands, according to the location and direction, from the middle of the selection, the final left of the three bases, the largest one has a 3000 square kilometers so large, of course, this one is not very large, only 900 square kilometers.

Not to mention compared with the two largest of the previous two, even compared with some not too important supply islands, is not very large, but in the position above, but very critical, ocean currents, islands, plus distance location, these together, formed the foundation of this base, and through nearly 8 months of development, has developed quite perfect.

In this base, there are not only more than 2,300 ships, the transport ships of the giant Spanish sailing ship, but also a large number of supplies and personnel, once found, there are islands that can be built, and these materials will be dispatched at once.

Of course, for the island that has just been developed, completely unable to their own, such personnel and materials, the cost is very large, in order to ensure their normal survival, follow-up, there are countless ships in the back, if from the simple efficiency and consumption, such a method, his cost will be very large, tens of thousands of people listen to not much, the daily cost on the island is very high, but this method, but very efficient.

All expeditionary fleets, like hives, as long as the next is determined, will be the same as the bees, to explore everything around them clearly, and finally, step by step to reach the present position, only one step away from the Americas, now is the time to break the window paper.

Zhao Xin also knows that the road to open such a route is not far, but how far, how much time, this, really do not know, there is no accurate nautical chart, no satellite premise, this one to explore whether there is deviation, only Zhao Xin, because the density of the island, know, it should be in the right direction, because the north has a large number of relatively dense islands, that is, this side, the south, and the central part of the Pacific, there are not many islands.

10 ships can be said to be their own duties, they take one as a unit, respectively, to their respective positions, the longest one, and even directly sail to the fixed navy, it is a long route, at least tens of thousands of kilometers of range, even if the shearing ship to 250, or even more than 300 kilometers of sky speed, also need at least a month or more time, in fact, long-distance sailing, simply can not run so fast.

Forty days to arrive, is already good, this good news, must be the first time to report to the given Navy, to the emperor's majesty, this is everyone want to do this, and he also knows that once the news at the first level of the report goes up, almost it is inevitable that every level will report to his majesty.

In the distant other hemisphere, in the distance of the navy, more than eight time zones, more than 10,000 kilometers of voyage, in the past, it was almost the same distance as the ends of the earth, but now, but now, it is within the range of searchable, they have actually discovered the Americas, but now they are not sure.

In Shenyang, this after nearly a year of construction, after more than 3 years of development, with the advanced technology of the Navy, has been gradually improved, and now shows a big city style Shenyang, it is somewhat different.

In the palace, even if Zhao Xin has assigned many rights, the things that are handled every day may be only one-tenth of what Ren Zong handles, and they can still have to deal with more than 2 hours a day, and in some special times, the time required will be longer.

Zhao Xin has already abandoned that, the treatment method of the emperors of the old era, but the use of some future leaders' treatment methods, decentralization, grasping the main problems, for example, the development of the direction of development, the scientific line, and some people's livelihood and people's projects, but even so, some occasions that must appear, and some things that must be dealt with, still occupy most of his time, and even some of the places that are bound to appear, will occupy half a day, even a day or two.

In dealing with a series of necessary things, Zhao Xin took out a document, which is a middle-level discussion, in fact, is similar to the future of the same thing, anyone can submit to here, and then there is a bottom, or controversial things, will be put here, let the decision makers, or Zhao letter to see.

Open the insiders, most of the things are cliché, of which, mainly in terms of people's livelihood, the Navy is in the ascendant, because Zhao Xin is properly controlled, there are not many poor people, there is no poverty alleviation project, but some systems above, there is no place to take care of, or exists.

Local officials will reflect the problems found in their respective aspects, and most of the problems will be solved, and these problems are people's livelihood problems.

But there is also a part of the dissent, most of which is the objection to some of the policies pursued by the Navy, which is largely unresolved, because the line of the Navy is almost always raised by Zhao Xin.

From the 21st century, Zhao Xin, through the mastery of the information age, knows the depth and breadth of the problem, not only beyond this era, and even in the next few hundred years, thousands of years, will be beyond, such a vision is very critical, but also to make the Navy to obtain a great development of the core force.

However, in some cases, some policies will cause opinions from others, and these opinions, under the openness of Zhao Xin, have been able to be published on the above, giving everyone who can see and discuss together.

However, this part, just to show, will not change Zhao Xin's policy.

The most criticized in the middle is the navigational exploration.

From the Kuril Islands to the Kamchatka Peninsula, it took only half a year to explore more than 4,000 kilometers, explored a lot of islands, and there is a huge, not rich in property, so that there may be no direct gain, but from the territory, from the expansion of the territory above, it is still acceptable.

Land is an important resource, which has led to the consensus of the Navy, the Navy is different from the feudal dynasty, unlike the era when the land was only used as arable land, or the pasture exists, and the land without these foundations is considered to be cumbersome.

In the western region of the Han Dynasty, even if the water and grass were beautiful, because of the long road and uncontrollable, to the Northern Song period, the whole northwest, because of the change of climate, because of the changes in the earth, became barren, and could not carry so many people.

The Navy is not the same, food is very important, basic farmland, basic rations, this is a foundation, is an impossible to cross the red line, in front of such a red line, to ensure the basic farmland, in order to ensure the steady development of the country.

But other land, it is not necessarily not important, heavy industry, industry, and all kinds of smelting industry, for the demand for resources, it is almost no end, although the degree of enrichment in minerals, is different, but the total amount of land is large enough, all kinds of mineral deposits, this is a fundamental.

In the exploration of the north, in the discovery of the Kuril Islands, Kamchatka Peninsula, and even the exploration of the Arctic ice sheet, this principle is to increase the land area of the fixed navy, this increase may not show its role now, the future can have.

Although, in the beginning, the investment was huge, and there were some casualties, but in the whole acceptable range, there was some opposition, but it was a minority.

However, after the discovery of the Chaga Peninsula, a full year and a half, it was deep into the ocean, and the construction of countless bases, invested huge human, material and financial resources, and as for the follow-up, a large number of transportation, materials, and tens of millions of ships, so the cost is astronomical.

Last year, in the first half of the year, when exploring the Chaga Peninsula, the cost was amazing, and the consumption of half a year was about 1 billion, which was already, before going out to work abroad, the highest annual income of the Northern Song Dynasty was 10 times, even in the income system of the Navy, it was a considerable amount of money.

But in the second half of the year, the entire cost increased, directly increased by 5 times, reached 5 billion, under such expenditure, the opposition of the people up, after all, this expenditure, has occupied a considerable amount of data, the most critical is that there is no gain.

Half a year, only the discovery of a few islands, the era of the fixed naval personnel, has not yet realized the importance of the channel and route, it is not aware of this important role.

From this time, the opposition began to increase, to this year, this number compared to last year, once again doubled, is expected to reach 20 billion a year, the number of opponents at this time, especially now, reached the extreme, the insider occupies almost a quarter of the layout, is the opposition of these people.

For this, Zhao Xin is just a laugh, he is very clear about the important role of the Americas, not to mention 20 billion, even 200 billion, or even 2 trillion, can be accepted, but luck seems to be worse, this is 2 years, has not found, according to the current chart, only a foot, but this door, but did not appear, which also made him feel a burst of irritability.
