The next day, Bai Guoshi woke up very late. He heard from the brother on duty at the entrance of the group that a girl had come to see him, because he had turned her away before he even got up. Bai Guoshi thought it was probably Zhao Xue -
―It goes without saying that he came to see him early in the morning because he wanted to go to the cafeteria to have breakfast together. This was a great opportunity to increase emotional communication, but he actually missed it. He knocked his head in frustration.
Another depressing thing is that after I came out of the committee yesterday, my head was dizzy due to the long argument. As a result, Wei Aiwen asked me for cigarettes, and I muddleheadedly gave him the whole pack that I had only smoked yesterday.
It was painful for him, but it was a package of hard China. The price of a package of hard China is ridiculously high now. Fortunately, I brought a whole one.
"What a bad luck." Bai Guoshi thought and felt depressed. He didn't even bother to eat breakfast. He took out a piece of extremely unpalatable Cao Cao No. 5 rice cake from his pocket. This was the standard ration during field operations, but everyone didn't like it.
I loved eating it and kept a lot of it.
Chewing the rice cakes that he seemed to never be able to swallow, Bai Guoshi came to the exploration team office. As soon as he sat down and poured a glass of water to swallow the rice cakes, Liu Zheng came in and laughed a few times when he saw him.
Bai Guoshi was puzzled.
"Xiaobai, mm Zhao Xue will be officially transferred to our department from today."
"Really?!" Bai Guoshi stood up in excitement and almost choked on the rice cake.
"Don't get excited, of course it's true." Liu Zheng reassured him with a smile, "With a combination of men and women, the work won't be tiring. Xiaobai, you have to seize the opportunity-"
Just as Bai Guoshi was about to say something, he saw Zhao Xue bumping in and saying: "I heard that I am being kept at the base and will not be allowed to go out on missions!"
"Well, haha, yes," Liu Zheng nodded, "your legs are not good, so you are not suitable for such long-distance field activities. When our exploration team grows in size, we need someone to guard it, and we can't resort to empty city tactics. This is also combined with your
It specializes in analyzing and organizing intelligence. Your job is very important. First, provide them with a mission briefing before each remote team sets off, so that they can have a preliminary understanding of some general information about the target to be reconnoitred; second, after they return, summarize
The collected intelligence will be written into a report and submitted to the Intelligence Committee. There are still a lot of administrative matters to be handled, which is a heavy burden, but don’t worry, my comrades and I will try our best to help you." Zhao Xue said thoughtfully: "It is so important.
…”
Seeing that she had been fooled, Liu Zheng hurriedly said that I had to leave beforehand, and you were busy creating opportunities for Bai Guoshi.
Bai Guoshi suddenly felt that he was super lucky. Could it be because of the merit accumulated by giving away a pack of cigarettes for free? Wei Aiwen was not an old woman crossing the road.
Just as he was thinking about how to speak, Zhao Xue had already spoken: "I went to find you in the morning, why are you still sleeping?"
"I was exhausted yesterday. You don't know how late the executive committee meeting was," Bai Guoshi couldn't help bragging about himself, talking about how impressive his report at the meeting was. He also added such things as his solemn point out to the executive committee that
The executive committee accepted the issue of not paying enough attention to long-range exploration, and repeatedly exclaimed that there were capable people in the exploration team. In the end, even large-scale exploration adventures became his proposal.
Bai Guoshi felt guilty while talking about it, but when he saw his sister smiling like a flower and showing admiration in her eyes, he couldn't help but continue bragging.
After they had finished talking, Bai Guoshi asked: "What do you want from me this morning?"
"I received the transfer order this morning. I still have a lot of things in the IT department, and I want you to help me move them."
"Okay, I'll go right away." Bai Guoshi hurriedly volunteered.
On the second day, all personnel, including the new personnel, reassigned the groups to try to balance the strength of the two groups. Training was conducted in a model where the old led the new. Since the recent task was to follow a large group of people on an island exploration, it was difficult for them to do so.
The direct quality requirements for the team members are not so great, and the exploration team has gained valuable breathing time for training. The contents formulated by Liu Zheng mainly include:
1. Wilderness survival training, basic wilderness survival training, combines experiences and lessons learned from actual combat missions.
Second, basic individual tactics, including grappling techniques, etc., are mainly taught by people from the special reconnaissance brigade.
Third, basic team coordination tactics, including cross-covering, etc., with special emphasis on the coordination training of guns and crossbows.
4. Professional knowledge in flora, fauna, minerals and meteorology.
5. Navigation adaptation training. Each group must go to Bopu for rowing and swimming training.
After several days of training, everyone's various levels have been greatly improved - thanks to the long-term labor after D-Day, no matter how useless an otaku is now, he has good physical strength. With physical strength, what he teaches is nothing more than
It’s about skills and synergy.
Liu Zheng took the team to Gaoshanling, Lingaojiao and other places to conduct a series of practical survival training in the mountains and at sea, and also conducted a confrontation between the two groups AB. In addition to honing the skills of the newcomers, it also enhanced their relationship.
The effect of improving morale.
Wen Desi went to the shipyard every day these days to supervise the construction of their first ketch. The blueprint of this ship was built based on the line drawings of the famous "America" in history: a displacement of 170 tons and a total length of
30 meters, width 7 meters, draft 3 meters, double mast, longitudinal sail. Even the captain only needs 9 people to operate it.
Since this ship was the first large-scale ship built by the Cross-Train Group, it was called "Ship Zero" before it was officially launched and named to show its status from scratch.
The shipwrights of Baitu Lai are the main force in shipbuilding. Building a large Western ship is a brand new challenge for the shipwrights. It is also a test for Wen Desi. It is a test for the overall industrial level and collaboration ability of the travelers.
.
Because no one had any experience in launching a 170-ton ship, the shipbuilders of New Spacetime adopted a more appropriate and safer dry dock shipbuilding method. Although the project was huge, it would be of great significance to the shipbuilding industry after its completion.
The dock was dug manually and mechanically. It is not a complete pit on the shore. Strictly speaking, it is a semi-open structure. Most of it was excavated on the beach, and the other part was made of wooden piles and bricks in the sea.
The walls and bottom of the dock are reinforced by pouring bamboo-reinforced gravel concrete.
It is relatively easy to solve the problem of water pumps for docks: Not only does Chuanhuan Group have its own water pumps, water pumps and other equipment, but modern ships such as the Fengcheng Ship are almost equipped with several of them. After the steam engine is successfully trial-produced, there will be no problem in using it to pump water.
.
The ship lock is made of iron-framed wooden boards. A large amount of high-quality wood was consumed to build the lock. The lock also used shipbuilding caulking technology to increase the water density between the board walls. The lock is opened and closed by a winch traction rope. In order to drive the winch and water pump,
The machinery department specially manufactured boilers and supporting steam engines for the dock: a fifty-horsepower horizontal steam engine. In addition to opening and closing the gate, it can also drive a sawmill to saw wood during the day and pump water for the dock at night - the tightness of the dock's gate
Not very good.
In order to build the No. 0 ship, Chuanchuang Group has begun to gather resources on a large scale since the beginning of the year. The Ministry of Machinery Industry has specially set up ironworking workshops in the shipyard to manufacture various iron and copper parts for ships. Some large metal parts are
Produced by the metallurgical factory.
The Wenlan River is responsible for transporting a large number of materials: bulk and heavy materials are transported downstream by floating rafts, while lighter materials are transported to the shipyard by two-wheeled vehicles, manpower or horses.
The wood used for shipbuilding was seized from Baitu Village and has been fully dried for several years. The wood basically comes from Fujian - Lingao cannot provide so many large materials. Because the No. 0 ship is a trial product, except for the mast and rudder
In addition to ironwood and other key parts, a large amount of cheap fir is used. In addition to wood, Baitu Village also provides tung oil, hemp silk, oyster shell ash, hemp rope, and a large number of iron parts-including four-claw anchors.
. Ready-made accessories greatly shortened the shipbuilding period, otherwise the time travelers would have been busy for several months just collecting and manufacturing these things - Wen Desi often secretly rejoiced that he occupied Baitu at that time.
The shipyard has an abundant labor force. The main force is villagers who have been forcibly relocated from Baitu Village. They have more or less participated in shipbuilding and can directly join the shipbuilding project with a little guidance. Wen Desi focuses on training shipwrights.
The craftsmen with a foreign surname, headed by Zhang Jiji, led him to work in the shipyard every day. Zhang Jiji is now the chief shipbuilder of the shipyard. Because they have learned many Western shipbuilding techniques and techniques from Wen Desi, everyone is very energetic.
In contrast, the children of the Lin and Lu families were a little frightened and obviously absent-minded. These two families, especially the Lin family, are a large and powerful family and have controlled the village administration of Baitu for a long time. They have a lot of influence among the immigrants in Baitu Village.
The executive committee was very afraid of clan power and would never allow this phenomenon to occur within their direct jurisdiction. Therefore, as soon as the housing in Xinbaitu Village was completed, Wu De immediately began to dismember the two families.
.
Lin Gonglao stood at the door of the quarantine camp office. His young face was distorted and he looked resentful. The more than a dozen children of the same race around him also had gloomy expressions - they had just learned the assessment results and the distribution destination.
In the past few days, all immigrants in Baitu Village who are over 16 years old have received a skills assessment. Since the Lin family are shipwrights, the assessment content is various skills related to shipbuilding: including woodworking, double-line work, and ironwork.
, pewter work, spin work, oyster shell work, decoration work, carving work, rustle work, tent work, rope work, cable work, paint work, five-ink work, etc., basically covering all the contents of ancient ship craftsmanship.
The content of the assessment and the specific scoring were done by Zhang Jiji, but Zhang Jiji did not show up so as not to offend his feelings. Wen Desi knew from his regular contacts that Zhang Jiji was very concerned about the Lin family's past control of village administration and misappropriation of most of the shipbuilding profits.
Wei Ci, as long as he has no scruples, he will not show mercy to the Lin family.
