The depth of the sea here is more shallow than the seas passed by before.
Obviously, the sea here is slightly calm.
In this way, before long, the scenery in front changed, and a coral reef appeared exposed above the sea.
Seeing this, the three ships received the order at the same time, and all lowered their speed.
At this time, I heard the roar of the three boats at the same time. Various flying cars slowly lifted into the air, and then flew towards the coral reefs ahead.
In one of the flying cars, Jiang Cheng was also on the list.
Today's action is very important!
Don't lose!
Therefore, Jiang Cheng must personally come to supervise.
Although, for this day, he has conducted more than dozens of discussions with the engineers and technicians who came to the construction this time, and finally determined the final island reclamation plan from hundreds of plans, but, When this day came, Jiang Cheng was still a little worried.
After all, this kind of thing is by no means trivial.
Its impact is difficult to judge.
Therefore, in order to fear that the construction will fail due to doubts from the outside world during the future construction process, Jiang Cheng and other senior officials of Emerald Island have negotiated and decided unanimously that they must incorporate this potential strategic location into their own territory as quickly as possible. Inside.
There is no precedent for "reclamation of seas and islands" in the current world. Therefore, no matter what Jiang Cheng does, he can stand on a position that is not criticized.
After all, all countries are now occupying islands, and Jiang Cheng just built an artificial island by himself, which is nothing.
However, what Jiang Cheng is more worried about is that after he built an artificial island with a cutter suction dredger, such behavior is bound to arouse heated discussion in the international community.
The impact it will bring is not what he can predict. Maybe the island-building behavior will become popular in the whole world!
The major countries will certainly use the same method to seize those strategic locations.
However, Jiang Cheng is not too worried about this.
This is because the shipbuilding technology of cutter suction dredgers is still a "black technology" in the current world, and major countries may not have heard of this shipbuilding technology.
Therefore, as long as Jiang Cheng protects this technology and implements a technical blockade, there will still be a long time for artificial island-building technology to belong to Emerald Island alone.
In other words, during this period of time, Jiang Cheng can use this island-building technology madly to plunder small islands and reefs around the world and bring them all into his territory!
This is a way to quickly expand territory and territorial waters!
Of course, this method can be regarded as a double-edged sword. Although it can greatly expand the territory and territorial waters controlled by Jiang Cheng in a short period of time, it will also attract fierce opposition from major countries!
At that time, the pressure Jiang Cheng faces will also rise sharply.
Therefore, in order to really expand the territory, Jiang Cheng must make the most adequate preparations. Without the corresponding military strength, then he can only incur a disaster for himself!
After all, the Pacific Ocean is still dominated by Yamato and the United States.
Not to mention future expansion plans, but Jiang Cheng must win the island and reef in front of him.
It is only a few dozen nautical miles away from Emerald Island, and it is also the closest strategic location to Emerald Island. If it is taken away by other countries in the future, it means that the strategic depth of Emerald Island will be greatly reduced as a result, which is extremely detrimental to Emerald Island. The future development of the island.
Therefore, even for this, Jiang Cheng desperately wanted to take it down.
Taking down this island and reef not only means keeping the strategic depth of Emerald Island, but also means correspondingly expanding the scope of Emerald Island's power.
Although Jiang Cheng has not estimated it, he can know that the territorial waters that Jiang Cheng can control have expanded several times.
It is even possible to draw a straight line between Emerald Island and this island reef. From then on, the sea area of tens of nautical miles around this straight line will be controlled by Jiang Cheng!
What a huge piece of territorial waters this is!
Just thinking of this, Jiang Cheng was so excited that he couldn't sleep for days and nights!
It can be said that the acquisition of this unnamed island reef is definitely the most important strategic event in the development of Emerald Island!
The benefits it brings are far from being estimated!
It is even enough to raise the international status of Emerald Island by several levels!
The sea area that can be controlled by a point and the sea area that can be controlled by a line are not in the same order of magnitude!
From now on, the strategic position of Emerald Island will be improved by geometric magnitude. Any country in the Pacific Ocean will no longer be able to ignore the existence of Emerald Island!
Of course, the premise of all this is to build this island and reef first, and be able to deal with the fierce opposition from international voices that follow!
However, Jiang Cheng still has some confidence in this. The destroyer design drawings he gave to the scientists at the Octopus Island No. 1 dock are currently in the intensive manufacturing stage. I believe that the world will see this epoch-making battleship soon. The power of!
Battleships and cruisers, warships that should have been eliminated long ago, have no time to exert their power in front of the destroyers' missiles, and they will sink to the bottom of the sea.
Of course, Jiang Cheng did not believe that after the island-building incident, it would trigger military actions by surrounding forces, but he must also be prepared.
Because, even if those hostile forces dare not really launch real military actions against him, some harassment actions are, after all, more violent, and he must counterattack.
These new destroyers are the best counterattack.
After passing these thoughts in his mind, Jiang Cheng shook his head and refocused his attention on the nameless island below.
This time, he brought a large number of scientific research personnel, and at the same time brought three Tianpeng cutter suction dredgers that were put into use in advance, in order to complete the island construction plan as quickly as possible, and try to catch the attention of the outside world. Before their action, the island was established and armed with sufficient military power to deal with the challenges that may occur in the future.
Before they came here, they had already conducted a thorough demonstration and had done enough experiments on the method of using the Tianpeng.
So, when they came here today, they only need to do a field inspection and feel that there is no problem, then they can start the construction plan!
