Chapter 1133 Construction of Midway Twin Islands
Adding more than 120 barrels of water for 10 small fishes is actually not particularly necessary, but Qu Mao did such a small thing very patiently.
The main reason is that after adding the water, Qu Mao felt that his mood was much happier. After all, the vitality of the small fish nourished by the spring water of the Spring of Life is much higher than that of ordinary wild small fish. With these 10 small fish, Qu Mao felt In addition to the soldiers and civilians in Yi Gong's territory, Twin Islands also had other lives.
As for the saplings planted, Qu Mao believes that it is not yet certain that they will survive, and they are not considered independent lives. At the very least, they will not be considered independent lives until the saplings have taken root and germinated new leaves. .
After adding water to the little fish, Qu Mao took Kong Ming, Xuande and Li Xiang to the Dadao Construction Headquarters and asked, "Xuande, bring all the sand, grass seeds and straw mats you need." Is it gone?"
Xuande nodded, and said: "My lord, I brought them all here, if it wasn't for these things, then my subordinates certainly wouldn't just bring a backpack of fresh water.
Before we came, Jia Sixie suggested that we spread sand and gravel first, then sow grass seeds, then lay straw mats, and finally water fresh water, preferably with fresh water that can thoroughly water the straw mats.
It should be able to water the straw mats thoroughly, but you have added more than 120 barrels of fresh water to the little fish, and now the subordinates can't guarantee that all the straw mats can be thoroughly watered. "
Qu Mao thought for a while and said, "Li Xiang, you are responsible for all the seedlings planted on the big island. At least the holes you dig need to be patched with sand, sprinkled with a small amount of grass seeds, covered with grass mats, and watered thoroughly. .
In this way, the sand and gravel can be prevented from being blown away by the sea wind.
The Firearms Army playground and the Firearms Army shooting site should operate in this way, but it doesn't matter if you can slow down a little. I took Kongming and Xuande back to the island and did the same thing.
The current shooting site of Xuezilin and the Firearms Research Institute on the small island add up to 50,000 square meters. They all need to be handled in this way, and the workload is not necessarily smaller than that on the big island. "
Li Xiang was very grateful because Qu Mao blackmailed Xuande to bring fresh water to supplement the water at the bottom of the reservoir, so he said: "My lord, if the island needs firearms soldiers, you can send them.
With the engineers and technicians and a small number of soldiers from the Firearms Army, the subordinates can do a good job on this matter on the big island. You don’t have to worry about it. After all, there is no whole area on the big island that needs to be operated in this way. It’s all left by the tree planting. Small potholes need to be treated to prevent sand loss. "
Qu Mao said: "Li Xiang, in the near future, we still have to mobilize another wave of construction workers to the Midway Twin Islands to complete the construction of the stone bridge between the big island and the small island as soon as possible."
Li Xiang said: "My lord, my subordinates are already making arrangements for this matter. Around August 1st, a new batch of construction teams totaling 3,000 people will land on the island, and at least 1,000 of these 3,000 people will be specially arranged to build bridges.
At that time, the infrastructure construction of the entire Midway Twin Islands will be accelerated, because there are still 2,000 new soldiers of the Firearms Army who will land on the island. "
Qu Mao nodded, and said, "I can rest assured that Li Xiang personally handled the infrastructure project."
After returning to the small island with Kong Ming and Xuande, the three went straight to the student forest of the Firearms University under construction. When they arrived, the 50 first-year freshmen had already assembled.
There is no need for Qu Mao and Xuande to say anything. After the 50 freshmen got the supplies, they started to work in full swing. Even though it was very difficult for one person to carry 30 liters of fresh water, these freshmen could not even call the firearms army for help. No, I'm all suffocated and I'm doing it myself.
Qu Mao even found a few thin girls who were doing all these things by themselves, and did not seek help from Firearms soldiers or male classmates.
Qu Mao took a look at Kong Ming, and now there is a shortage of people in the construction of Twin Islands, 50 freshmen to solve the matter of the student forest, Qu Mao is naturally happy to see the success, so he took Xuande and Kong Ming back to the actual shooting site of the Firearms Research Institute , that is, Kong Ming chiseled down 20 centimeters to a range of 200 meters by 200 meters.
200 firearms soldiers have assembled here, waiting for Qu Mao and Kong Ming to give orders.
Xuande directly took out all the sand, grass seeds, and straw mats in his backpack, and Kong Ming began to explain the technical essentials. After listening to Qu Mao's introduction, 200 firearms soldiers began to lay sand and sow grass in groups. seeds and covered with a straw mat.
In an area of 40,000 square meters in total, 200 firearms soldiers worked together, and the speed was actually very fast.
Qu Mao checked the straw mats brought by Xuande. These straw mats are woven with dried grass. The width of the whole straw mat is only 1 meter, but the length is generally more than 10 meters, and there is grass in the middle. The ropes are woven together, and the thickness of the whole straw mat is about 1 cm.
If this straw mat is used as the wall of a house, it will definitely not be able to block the wind, but if this kind of straw mat is spread on the ground, the straw mats are layered around, and then poured with water to fully irrigate the straw mat, then It is still difficult for the general sea breeze to blow up these straw mats, and it is also very difficult to blow away the sand under the straw mats without blowing up the straw mats.
Qu Mao came up to Kong Ming and said, "Kong Ming, before the water is fully poured, don't just do experiments here, or you will burn all the straw mats, and the grass seeds sprinkled below will be affected."
Kong Ming said: "Understood, my lord, let the soldiers bring some water to water it later, let it get wet first, and try to water it every day.
Wait until the grass seeds germinate and grow grass, it may be better.
It is not easy to carry out the landmine experiment again. Every time I have to dig out the straw mats and bury the mines. "
After everything was set up, 200 firearms soldiers each went to get a bucket of fresh water from the transport ship, poured it all down, and then retreated to do other things.
Qu Mao touched the grass mat and said, "Kong Ming, 200 barrels of water at a time, at least twice a day.
And before each actual shooting experiment, water had to be sprinkled on the explosion area of the experiment again, so that it was possible to ensure that the experiment would not ignite the straw mat. "
Xuande said with some pain in his flesh: "My lord, my subordinates feel that it is too wasteful."
However, Qu Mao has just received a reminder from the cheating system. Since Qu Mao invented a new technique for transforming deserted islands, he has given a reward of 40,000 cheating points at one time. After finishing, there will be a cheat value reward.
Recovering his senses, he saw that Kong Ming had already left, so Qu Mao said to Xuande: "Xuande, since you are here, you can stay for one night before going back."
Xuande said: "Yes, my lord. This subordinate has exactly the intention."
