Chapter 1161: Through the canal

In this world, there are two main canals, one is the canal of the long-staple cotton country, the main waterway of the world, and the other is the Palmana Canal here, which connects the two oceans of Hepingyang and Daxiyang. Greatly shorten the sailing time.
In the past, this place was controlled by the Eagle Nation. Until 1979, after unremitting struggles, the canal here was granted rights by the locals. However, it will take another twenty years to truly control it.
Now, as he gradually approached the canal, Qin Guan stood on the bow of the warship, looking at the sights on both sides, feeling sorrowful in his heart.
The scene here is very spectacular, the tall ship lock slowly appeared in front of you.
"Stop, stop the ship!" At this moment, at the bow of the ship, a Parmana pilot shouted loudly.
To pass through the canal here, you have to go through complicated procedures, and you also need to be led by a navigator. These navigators are familiar with waterways. They stay on board until the ship leaves the canal end. Together with the waiting time, it may take 15-20 hours for the boat to pass the canal smoothly. Once a vessel is allowed to pass, the average transit time from deep water to deep water is about 9 hours.
Now, the navigator is over forty years old, his body is tanned by the sun, and his eyes are sharp. With his shout, the huge warship stopped.
"Wow," came a soft noise.
The boat is small and can turn around. After the boat is big, the operation is quite difficult. For a 10,000-ton boat, if you want to shake its body, you have to control it carefully.
In order to protect the sluice, before entering the sluice, the ship must pass a protective chain that is straightened between the two walls of the entrance. If everything is done properly, the protective chain will fall into the groove at the bottom of the waterway. In case the ship travels too fast, the protective chain will be tensioned for safety, and the ship will hit the protective chain. At this time, the protective chain controlled by the hydraulic device on the sluice wall will automatically loosen and slowly release until the ship is stopped and stopped.
Now, there was a slight collision between the ship and the protective chain, and finally, it stopped gently.
The electric locomotive on the rack on the top of the lock wall began to tow the ship and slowly passed the lock.
This is like making Zhang Fei wear embroidery needles.
The ship swayed gently, entered the sluice slowly, and moved slowly in the channel.
The navigator kept giving instructions one by one.
A behemoth appeared in front, and it was a ship from the subject!
The two ships are slowly approaching and approaching. At this time, if the jumping ability is better, you can even jump to the opposite ship!
In this way, the two boats slowly passed by in parallel, even if Qin Guan couldn't help but hold his breath, the navigator was relaxed and relaxed. They could see this scene every day.
The canal here can carry freighters of up to 80,000 tons, and the maximum allowable width of freighters is 32 meters, which allows freighters of 10,000 tons to pass side by side.
Such two-way traffic, of course, can greatly save time and improve efficiency.
Finally, the ship entered a lake.
The navigator breathed a sigh of relief, now he can relax.
"Brother, your work is great." Qin Guan was bored and began to chat with the pilot.
"This is simply a miracle that God can create." The navigator said: "I am working for God."
The navigator is very religious.
"How many years have you been doing it?"
"Fifteen years, all these years, the canal has been full every day." He said here, shouting to the opposite side, obviously saying hello to the navigator opposite.
"Fifteen years, then you rarely go home, right?"
Speaking of going home, that is definitely an eternal topic. Qin Guan said that, and the pilot’s face was really sad: "Yes, originally, my home is not far from here, but there is no bridge here, so the cross-strait communication is very inconvenient."
bridge!
Once there is a big river, it is very inconvenient for people to travel. Bridges will be built to facilitate traffic. The canals here are dug out manually. After being dug out, it will be inconvenient for people on both sides to pass.
This is how the navigator separated the two places. His home was on the South Bank, while his parents were on the North Bank. They have not been back home for many years.
If it is an ordinary river, you can drive a small boat on the river to go back and forth on both sides of the river, but here is a canal, and there are countless boats passing every day, so it is impossible to allow small boats to sail back and forth on both sides.
The young man can look at the home of his parents on the other side of the boat every day, but he just can't pass. This feeling is very uncomfortable.
"Young man, don't worry. In the future, there will definitely be a bridge connecting the two sides of the strait to make the transportation on both sides more convenient." Qin Guan said.
"Really?" The young man was overjoyed.
It must be true. When the canal is reclaimed by you in the future, if you have money, you will naturally consider building bridges on the canal. There should be four or five in future generations.
At that time, North Industries Corporation can also participate in bidding. The later generations of Han will be an infrastructure madman, and there is nothing to worry about.
After passing the lake, on the opposite side, there is a narrow waterway. The canal here is much larger than the long-staple cotton country. The water level on both sides is different. Every time you sail through, the ship lock will be opened and many lakes will be released. Fresh water.
Fortunately, the rainfall here is abundant, so that the water level of the lake will not drop.
The three ships passed through the canal one after another and entered Daxiyang.
The sea was peaceful and calm, but when it came to Daxiyang, the wind and waves became stronger again.
After a few days, Xiang Jing had already adapted to life at sea. Apart from losing another two or three catties, her complexion had begun to gradually improve.
Xiang Jing watched the waves beating against the hull and the blue sea, not knowing what she was thinking.
"Niu's naval formation is getting closer and closer to Donkey Island, and war may break out recently." Qin Guan said.
"Ok."
"The people of Silver Kingdom are still standing still. It seems that they have to wait until the people of Niu Kingdom act first before they can fight back. When they fight back, they will definitely regard Niu Kingdom's aircraft carrier as the main target." Qin Guan continued.
"Ok."
"That Andrew is driving a helicopter on the Invincible aircraft carrier. If an anti-ship missile comes in, his helicopter must fly to block the missile."
"Ok."
"Don't you really have any reaction?" Qin Guan was very strange.
"It doesn't matter what I feel, what is important is what we can do." Xiang Jing said: "War is inherently cruel, and it is killing people."
Xiang Jing didn't know how many battles he had experienced. Life and death had long been bearish.
But why is there still a special feeling in my heart?
Are you still worried?
