The cold wind was blowing, and the raised snowflakes filled the gap between
the sky and the earth like a ball of white.
The lead-grey sky was low and gloomy, and the black clouds that the sun could
not penetrate were tinged with a hint of yellowishness. Only a ray of light
from the distant horizon made this dim ice sheet not dark.
This is the Shandong Peninsula of Yan Country, but it should be called
Shandong Island now.
With the rise of the coastline, the entire Shandong Peninsula has been
separated from the mainland and turned into a complete island.
However, even though it has become an island, the lives of the people in this
area have not been affected much.
At the beginning of the disaster, the people of this area were temporarily
moved to the inland area. After the surface environment stabilized, they
returned to this area and settled here.
As for the country, although it is not easy, it has been working hard to
maintain the supply of materials in this area and to ensure the production and
life of the people in this area.
Originally, this place was no different from other places after the Yan Guo
disaster, and there was nothing that could attract the attention of high-level
officials.
But when Chen Xin arrived here by plane, it was rare and lively.
A large number of workers are constantly busy, using various tools to chip
away the thick ice, which looks like a scene of enthusiasm.
"Academician Chen, this is the naval port before the disaster. All the
warships of the Northern Fleet were parked here before the disaster." A naval
officer said to Chen Xin in a complicated tone, but his eyes looked forward. A
giant steel ship frozen in ice and snow.
When the disaster struck, there were large-scale tsunamis around the world,
and rising sea levels even destroyed all coastal cities.
In the face of such tsunamis and disasters, even the largest warship built by
mankind-an aircraft carrier, is just a small sampan allowed to be manipulated
by nature.
So in order to avoid these warships that cost a lot of the country's resources
and effort to build, the navy tried its best to park them together and put
them in the military port, in order to avoid them all being destroyed by the
tsunami.
The Navy’s efforts were not in vain, but they did not have much effect.
These warships were not destroyed by the tsunami. Except for some warships
that were squeezed and damaged, most of the warships parked in the naval
harbor were just flooded, and they could be re-used after a major repair.
However, they have become "useless".
Because the whole world is frozen.
The entire ocean, all the rivers, lakes, everything, all the water bodies are
frozen by the extremely cold low temperature, and these warships, which are
just a pile of scrap iron after leaving the ocean, are also frozen in the
frozen ocean. Among.
All warships have been frozen, like huge monuments, they represent the glory
of mankind, the strength and prosperity of yesterday.
But now, they are just a pile of scrap iron frozen in the ice.
The original country has given up the recycling of these warships, only
intending to see if there is an opportunity to disassemble them and recover
the steel and other resources on them.
A small part of the severely damaged warships has actually been dismantled,
but as the temperature dropped, the work became more and more difficult, and
it came to a halt.
Therefore, most of the warships in the military port are still intact, but
they have lost the opportunity to sail and gallop on the sea again.
But now, Chen Xin has put forward a new idea, so that these warships seem to
have a chance to come back to life again.
"Academician Chen, all the warships of the Northern Fleet, including the
flagship aircraft carrier, are here. What are you going to do with them? Can
these warships really be used again?" The navy officer asked Chen Xin with his
eyes. With a bit of anticipation.
As a naval officer, of course, I don’t want to watch the large fleet that has
been built up after a lifetime of struggle for generations to be abandoned.
However, the reality made these warships useless. Apart from being dismantled
and recycled, he really couldn't think of any other places where these
warships could be used.
However, as a scientist who has been creating miracles for a long time, Chen
Xin suddenly proposed that these warships could be used for another purpose,
which would undoubtedly give the Navy a glimmer of hope.
Thinking that the Army can have land-based aircraft carriers, it doesn’t seem
impossible for the Navy to re-open these warships?
Just as the officer was thinking about it, Chen Xin said to him: "I plan to
transform these warships into land cruisers, so that they can be moved again,
and once again contribute to the country's national defense."
"A land carrier? Is that a large vehicle like a land carrier and a mobile
base?" Hearing Chen Xin's words, the navy officer's eyes lit up.
Regarding the matter of land aircraft carriers, as a naval officer, he
certainly cannot be ignorant. After all, the crew members are all from their
navy, and the navy is very concerned about this matter.
After all, large vehicles have always been patents of the Navy, and the Army
has never had such a big family.
Therefore, although it is called a land carrier, the crew that drives the land
carrier still needs the Navy to provide it.
And this also gives the navy a kind of expectation, that is, with the increase
of large vehicles such as mobile bases and land aircraft carriers, the navy,
which now appears to have lost its function, will rejuvenate in another form.
However, what the navy did not expect is that Chen Xin not only rejuvenated
the navy service ~ www.mtlnovel.com~ again came in handy, but also made these
warships that had been waiting to be dismantled to be sent again. Put on a new
use.
Following Chen Xin, the naval officer came to a warship with him.
This is an old-fashioned warship. Although it was also an active warship of
the Navy before the disaster, compared with the new warships that have been in
service one after another, this is an old ship that is already somewhat
outdated.
As an old warship that has been in service for more than ten years, it is
approaching the age limit for retirement. However, a catastrophe prevented
these old ships from waiting for the glorious retirement ceremony. Instead,
they were frozen together with other warships in this military port. Among.
And now, these veterans who have served for more than ten years seem to be on
the battlefield once again.
On the hull of the old ship, a group of workers are clearing the frozen ice on
the ship, while another group of workers is chipping away the ice at the
bottom of the hull to free the ship from the ice.
Looking at the busy workers, Chen Xin once again used the wristwatch to
project the design drawings of the land cruiser with nanomolecules, and
compared it with the warship in front of him, preparing to upgrade the warship
to make this old ship glow again. Bring out vitality and brilliance.
