"Mr. Yun, Mr. Ren, the aircraft formation over there is ready to start. You see? " Just then, a guy in a flying suit ran in front of the two and said to them after a military salute.
"Let's go!" Yun Fei nodded. No matter how complicated the situation here is, he just said that he won't have any intuitive impression. It's best to go there and have a look in person to guide him very clearly.
Under the leadership of the pilot, they trotted towards Wuzhi 9, whose propeller had begun to rotate slowly not far away.
"We still have two pilots here?" Yun Fei is not very clear about the security forces. After all, although his name is hung, the control is really in the military. The military just took this opportunity to let domestic soldiers in peacetime get some war tests.
After all, in this part of Africa, the probability of war is too high. Although there is no way to really test combat effectiveness, it is absolutely possible to test some weapons in such an environment.
Many mercenaries from various countries here have such tasks.
"Mr. Yun, I'm Ren Zhigang, the captain of the flight brigade of the mercenary Corps. I'll be your commentator this time. I won't perform the flight mission. Because the patrol area is far away and the flight time is long, they are equipped with two pilots... "Before Ren Zhiguo spoke, the pilot who did not go to the front cab took off his flight hat and goggles, showed a resolute face and smiled at Yun Fei.
"Chengdu Military Region?" Yunfei was surprised to hear that this guy had a Bashu accent.
At the beginning, more than 100 special forces came from the Chengdu Military Region. He knew, but he really didn't understand or ask about the soldiers who came later.
"I'm from Chengdu, but I didn't serve in Chengdu Military Region. Please forgive me because of the confidentiality regulations of the army..." Ren Zhigang didn't answer Yun Fei's question positively.
"It's okay, I know. Aren't you brothers? " Yun Fei is a little strange about this problem. Does Ren Zhiguo have a brother? But I haven't heard.
"It's a fart. When I first met him, I called my old man and asked him if he had illegitimate children. As a result, I was scolded bloody. It has been proved that we should belong to the same ancestor, and the generation is the same. " As soon as Ren Zhigang heard Yun Fei ask this, he laughed. Ren Zhiguo immediately had an egg pain on his face.
"All right. Let's talk about the situation here. Is the situation here really eroding to this extent? Armed helicopters have to be sent to patrol every day? How to ensure the safety of the workers under construction? " Yun Fei is small. He doesn't believe Ren Zhiguo's grandson dares to call back and ask him about the old man.
However, the names of these two people are only one word short, which is easy to be misunderstood as brothers.
"The problem here is not very big. In the past, people in Western Sahara often harassed here, but we rarely participated after we came. I don't know whether it's the deterrence of our armed helicopters or something else. There are few activities there now. In the first few days of the patrol, the machine guns on the top also fired several shells... "Ren Zhigang's words reassured Yunfei a lot.
Yun Fei nodded and didn't say anything. After all, he didn't know much about this side.
Ren Zhigang directly took out a map from his pocket, dragged a wooden box with unknown contents from the front, put it in the middle of the cabin and spread the map on it. Yun Fei looked at the map of Mauritania and Western Sahara in Chinese.
"The section from ruwakschott to attar is far from the border area and belongs to the densely populated area of Mauritania. The Taya government is heavily guarded, so there are few armed forces on the other side of Western Sahara. They are mainly concentrated in the border areas from attar to Frederick and to the north. Morocco has no control over that region. In Frederick and further north, there are rebel activities in Mauritania. That's the area we focus on. Our security forces, there are 200 people defending there... "Ren Zhigang pointed to the map and explained to Yun Fei.
Wuzhi 9 flies to the north at a cruising speed of more than 200 kilometers. This is a multi-purpose armed helicopter, which can not only attack the ground, but also transport soldiers.
Although Nouakchott covers a large area, there are basically no high-rise buildings in the city. Yunfei clearly sees the city from the helicopter.
"Why didn't you see the railway on the ground? Some sleepers or something? " The plane didn't fly high, only a few tens of meters high. Yun Fei looked down through the window through a telescope from the cabin. It was no different from domestic railways. A large number of pebbles were paved on the ground, and then concrete sleepers were installed on it.
It went all the way north, but I didn't see a track on it.
"There is no way. The total length of the whole railway is less than 600 kilometers. You're in a hurry. Doesn't China railway construction plan to repair the railway within one and a half years? Their person in charge here knew that we wanted to empty the zuela iron mine, so he patted his chest and promised me that it would not take a year and a half, but only 14 months. But we must give priority to the supply of building materials to them. This is also the reason why we can't keep up with the infrastructure construction on the other side of the industrial city. They directly divided the railway into five sections for construction. Now they lay sleepers first, and then lay the tracks directly after the tracks are transported... "Ren Zhiguo reluctantly replied Yun Fei.
"They didn't brag, did they? Such a long railway can be repaired in a year and two months? Are you kidding? " Yun Fei felt a little curious.
It is not so easy to build railways in China.
"Don't worry, it's completely different from the domestic situation. There is little rain here, the foundation is easy to repair, and it is divided into five sections and under construction at the same time. Tens of thousands of slave owners in Mauritania have signed employment agreements with us. In addition, China railway construction is not very efficient. It plans to call 3000 migrant workers from home. Anyway, we paid all the money... "Ren Zhiguo stared at the construction progress here every day and naturally knew how to get things back.
"How much infrastructure has been completed now?" Yun Fei really knows this.
"One third of the foundation has been completed. According to this situation, as long as the rail can be transported within the contract time, it can be completed in even one year. The track is waiting to be laid here. When the rail arrives, they will lay the foundation while laying... "
"Is this a little too fast?" Yunfei felt a little incredible.
Domestic railways are often built for several years.
"Fast what fast? There are no mountains here. There is no need to build bridges or tunnels. Naturally, it's fast. A year is too long for me. Their original narrow gauge railways have been used for decades, and there is no way to increase the traffic volume. However, there is still no problem with the mining equipment transporting red flag machinery. Now the open-pit iron ore from zuela iron mine is almost filling Frederick. The purchasing director of Shagang Group looks for the person in charge of China Railway Construction every day and tells them to repair the railway quickly. Our iron ore grade is higher than that in China, and the price is much cheaper than what they buy from abroad. Shagang now wants to swallow all our ore. Moreover, the refinery they built here is also making rapid progress, and it will be put into operation in six months... "Ren Zhiguo's construction makes Yun Fei a little silly.
It seems that the construction in China is not so fast?
"Wouldn't there be any problem with this? How much labor force has Taya transferred from China to cooperate with our work? " Yun Fei really feels a little incredible.
Under the appalling labor efficiency of black Moore slaves, can the construction progress here be so fast?
"There are about 120000 black moor slaves and 80000 black non-national labor force. How fast do you think the construction is going? Now we really need materials! If domestic workers come, the speed will be faster. We will let these lazy Africans know what China's construction speed is! " Ren Zhiguo said with a heroic face.
China's construction speed is definitely the fastest in the world.
Especially when China's special zone was just established, the construction speed of four days and one floor shocked the whole world.
For their ideal that they are determined to dig out at least half of the 2 billion tons of iron ore here in 20 years, this speed is still too slow.
Only when the railway is built can all kinds of heavy equipment be transported in.
"What about the progress of the railway to cadier?" Yunfei doesn't think there is anything inhumane about predatory mining in these places in Africa.
If a country wants to develop, it is absolutely impossible if it can not plunder the resources of other countries.
China is often too kind, so in his world, China has to pay high prices for all kinds of resources from abroad. Cloud is not different. He is an individual. Any behavior has nothing to do with the country, and he is not afraid of being scolded by countless people. Anyway, he's trying to make money.
Therefore, for him, the faster the construction speed, the better.
"It's almost the same as here. After all, at the beginning, we only planned to build there, but the iron ore here is easier to mine than there, and there are refineries, so when the Taya government asked us to increase investment, we directly repaired the railway for them. Didn't you agree to the original plan? " Ren Zhiguo asked a little strangely.
"I know. Didn't you say anything? Within 20 years, as many iron ores can be transported from here. Why don't I recite this curse? " Yun Fei said indifferently.
There is no free lunch in the world, as is the case in Africa. If you want to develop, you can only exchange resources. Just like China's economy, in the early stage of reform and opening up, China can only export a large number of various industrial raw materials and primary processed products in exchange for foreign exchange!
