"Of course it is easy to get clogged." Qin Tao said: "Although the Malacca Strait is relatively wide, its traffic volume is also large. The number of ships passing through the Malacca Strait every year is three times that of the Suez Canal and five times that of the Panama Canal."

"Mr. Qin, but its narrowest point is dozens of times wider than other canals." LaCour still didn't believe it. Although Qin always has authority, he and Mr. Qin are already good friends.

Of course you have to ask if you understand.

"Yes, the width is dozens of times, but the depth is not. In many places in the Strait of Malacca, the depth is only 25 meters. As long as there is a sunken ship, it will block the channel, especially if you don't know where the sunken ship is.

At that time, do you think those freighters will take risks and try their luck?"

Rakul's eyes lit up.

"Furthermore, because the water flow there is gentle, it is easy to cause sedimentation. You can look at the maps in recent years and see if you can find that many shoals and even sandbars have been added to the Strait of Malacca. When large ships pass by,

It is easy to run aground. If a few bulk carriers accidentally leak their cargo on the waterway, it will probably form a hill, right?"

Some things require the Zhang Zhong Talk program, and some things do not. In order to avoid making enemies, Qin Tao still has no intention of letting the Zhang Zhong Talk program report these things, so as not to cause trouble for himself. However, Siam does not have this worry, and must

Publicize this matter and let the other side take action. If you dare to block our canal, we will not be polite and will block the Strait of Malacca.

Moreover, the Kra Canal in Siam is man-made, and they have the right to decide who comes and who does not come. However, the Strait of Malacca is natural and any ship can enter it. They have no way of guarding against it. If this really happens,

One kind of thing is an accident, and the insurance company will compensate. Of course, it will only compensate the ship. The insurance company will definitely not compensate for the losses of a certain country caused by the interruption of the strait.

At this time, after hearing these suggestions from Qin Tao, Lakour also opened his mind: "We can also leak an oil tanker, and the spread of crude oil will be enough to cover the waterway of the Strait of Malacca, and other ships will not dare to come over.

"

Leaking an oil tanker? This will lead to serious environmental pollution and ecological disaster. Qin Tao frowned and didn't say much. This suggestion was not made by him. What Rakul wanted to do had nothing to do with him.

"In addition to these, there are pirates." Qin Tao continued to explain his thoughts: "Everyone knows Somali pirates. In fact, there are many pirates in Malacca. At their peak, they accounted for one-third of the world's piracy incidents.

.”

The Strait of Malacca is relatively narrow, and there are many ships passing through it, so the ships are very dense, and there are many small islands along the way. Under the influence of these factors, the Strait of Malacca has become the most suitable sea area for pirates to survive. There have been many pirates in history. Although now,

Not very famous, but as long as there are people behind it, Malacca pirates will develop.

By then, the coastal countries will also be in trouble. No matter what, pirates are rampant and they will have no income. No matter what, then the navies of other countries will have reason to cruise in these waters and protect their fleets. As for themselves? How many ships along the way?

The navy of each country simply cannot bear the task of fighting against the numerous pirates.

Lakul nodded: "Qin, your method is really good. With these methods, we can easily restrain them and prevent them from acting rashly!"

The problem of pirates is not a problem for the Kingdom of Siam. Although there are a large number of islands on both sides of the Kra Isthmus, they are so close to the Kingdom of Siam and there is no way to hide pirates. Besides, the Kingdom of Siam relies on tourism to develop, and many islands are occupied.

Once developed, there is no need to be a pirate at all. It is much more comfortable to just lie down on the island and make money than to be a pirate.

Even if there are pirates, Siam is not afraid. They have a powerful naval fleet. In addition to the 10,000-ton aircraft carrier, they will also order 075 next. Wherever there are pirates, they will be destroyed.

The Strait of Malacca is under the jurisdiction of several countries. Due to joint management, it has resulted in a no-no-no zone, which is somewhat similar to the Golden Triangle.

Lakul admired the methods proposed by Qin Tao very much. Mr. Qin was Mr. Qin, and he could come up with such a good method!

During the conversation, the convoy drove from the airport to the canal area. When entering here, you can find that the defense is tight. Not only has the canal been dug, but special barriers have also been erected fifty meters away on both sides of the canal. Ordinary people

Want to be close to the canal? No way!

Soldiers with guns and ammunition patrol back and forth to prevent various accidents. There are only a few retractable bridges spanning both sides of the canal to meet the needs of north-south transportation.

Qin Tao looked outside through the observation hole and was very satisfied with the project here.

Ranong, this is the starting point of the canal excavation and the place where the ceremony was held. A large group of people were already waiting here. When Qin Tao and others came, Qiu Taxin's helicopter also arrived, and both parties arrived almost at the same time.

"Mr. Qin, you are welcome to attend the opening ceremony of our canal." Qiu Daxin said to Qin Tao excitedly: "Before the half-year deadline was up, the canal was completely excavated, and the surrounding protection work was also done.

, It’s really rare! We express our gratitude to the Mingzhou Group’s infrastructure engineering team. At the same time, at the ceremony, we will also give out an additional reward, which is not a large amount, just to express our gratitude.”

"Thank you."

"They still need to stay here and build us ports, railways, refineries, etc. on both sides. We look forward to the completion of these facilities, and our country of Siam will continue to develop into an industrial country."

"Of course." Qin Tao nodded.

The canal project is just the beginning, and other projects will follow. As a result, the Siamese Parliament will develop, and its relationship with the East will be closer, and the maritime transportation routes in the East will be safer.

Although land oil pipelines have been opened and railways are under construction, the cost of land transportation is very high after all. It can be said that land transportation is to ensure that it can continue to be used after a breakup, while sea transportation is a method that is widely used under normal circumstances.

.

Kong Laoer had been waiting nearby for a long time. Now that he saw Qin Tao coming to chat with the big shot, he was too embarrassed to go there. It wasn't until they came over that Kong Laoer excitedly shook hands with Qin Tao: "Mr. Qin, we

We have lived up to your expectations and completed the canal excavation ahead of schedule!”

"Well, everyone has worked hard. Next, we must continue to carry forward the spirit of not being afraid of hardship and tiredness, continue to work here, continue to build infrastructure, and let the whole world see our Eastern Speed."

"yes!"

Qin Tao looked around and suddenly spotted several vehicles carrying thick pipes in the distance, with excitement on his face: "The anti-ship missiles have also been laid out?"

Below is an 8*8 wheeled chassis, which is about the same size as a Scud missile launcher. Behind the double-row cab, there is a special compartment, which contains the missile operating equipment room. Behind it, there are three

A huge cylinder.

Yes, there are only three. Because the C602 anti-ship missile is too big, its diameter has increased to 0.54 meters. With other accessories, the launch tube needs a diameter of about one meter. At the same time, the length of the missile is also 6.8 meters.

, the launch tube needs to be more than seven meters.

Such a huge missile is now standing at the mouth of the canal. It is not known whether it is for posing or whether it will stay for a long time in the future. Its triple launch tube has also been tilted at 30 degrees under the action of hydraulic legs. It looks like

Majestic.

"Yes, this is the equipment we received from your first anti-ship missile battalion. We deployed it on both sides of the canal. The targets in the sea area three hundred kilometers ahead are all within our strike range, especially

To the west, if there are still people who dare to shout that they want to come over for exercises, then we will also announce a maritime anti-ship exercise." Lakour said proudly: "Mr. Qin, this anti-ship missile is too domineering. We will need to use it in the future.

It is equipped on our warships!"

With a range of 300 kilometers and a warhead of 400 kilograms, the performance of this large missile is quite advanced and is enough to deter many opponents. A defective aircraft carrier like Ah San can be severely damaged by one missile and can be sunk by two missiles!

At this time, after hearing Lakul's words, Qin Tao nodded: "Of course, in the future, your Siamese navy will also develop more powerful and better control this sea area."

It would be good to find an opponent for Ah San, so that Ah San will not have to compete with Lao Ba. In the future, Ah San will also encounter strong challenges in the east. An aircraft carrier formation like Ah San will simply not be able to survive in front of the C602.

"However, anti-ship missile forces are not enough. This is a target that you need to protect in the future. I think you also need a strong air defense force." Qin Tao said: "Professional long-range air defense missiles should be deployed here. If you

If necessary, we can export the Hongqi-9 missile system to protect your safety."

Rakul's eyes lit up: "Really? That's really great!"

Dongfang's Hongqi-9 missile is a professional regional air defense missile and the main air defense weapon of the Dongfang Navy. With the protection of this kind of air defense missile, this place will be safer.

The domestic HQ-9 has developed to HQ-9A, and the more advanced HQ-9B is expected to come out in the future. Of course, the navy's warships will choose to carry the latest missiles. As for the outdated HQ-9 prototype missiles, of course they can be exported to earn foreign exchange to clear inventory.

.

They already have full confidence in Dongfang, and they don't need to bid or anything, they can just purchase directly.

Qiu Daxin also nodded: "Yes, we need to purchase the most advanced weapons from the East to further deepen our relationship with the East."

Several people walked while talking, and before they knew it, they had reached the booth where the canal navigation ceremony was held.

"Mr. Qin, do you want to come up and tell us a few words?"

Qin Tao looked around and frowned: "I think it would be better to install four sides of tempered bulletproof glass around the podium."

"Mr. Qin, is this not necessary? We have already put martial law within one kilometer of the surrounding area." Rakul was somewhat disapproving.

"Then do you know the longest sniping distance of a high-precision sniper rifle on the battlefield?" Qin Tao asked.

The other party shook his head.

"Currently, it is already two thousand meters away. In the future, it may be able to be raised to three thousand meters away. But here, we cannot search in the mountains one thousand meters away."

Next to Ranong is Myanmar. People here can stand guard and search for all targets, but it is impossible to cross the border.

"Two thousand meters? How is this possible?" Rakul opened his eyes wide in surprise.

Qin Tao smiled: "How is it impossible? If you haven't experienced high-precision sniper rifle shooting, you will think it is a fantasy. Once you experience it, you will know that you are a frog in the well."

Eastern soldiers feel this the most.

During the war years, many sharpshooters were born in the country. The rifles at that time could kill an enemy five hundred meters away with one shot. It was not simple. It was a miracle of bolt-action rifles. Later, after the rise of automatic rifles, the range of

It shrank to within 300 meters.

There were no professional sniper rifles in China for a long time. Later, I seized Lao Maozi's SVD on the battlefield and copied the sniper rifle. I felt that the accuracy was already very good.

However, when participating in foreign competitions with domestically produced 88 snipers, all the carefully selected fighters were eliminated. Only then did everyone realize that it was not that their skills were not good, but that the rifles in their hands were too stretched. Western sniper rifles

The accuracy is so high that it’s unbelievable!

The 88 sniper, which can only use machine gun ammunition, is not considered a sniper rifle at all in the eyes of others. It can only be called a precision shooter rifle at most. Lao Maozi's SVD is also positioned in this way. It just extends the firepower range of the infantry squad. It is not a sniper rifle at all.

There is no setting for accurately sniping enemies from a long distance.

The American Barrett has repeatedly set records of killing enemies at a distance of two thousand meters on the battlefield. Of course, this is not the best. The TAC50 has set a record of killing enemies at a distance of more than three thousand meters. Although some people do not agree with it and feel that

There is some moisture in this. But sniping from two thousand meters away is appropriate.

Now the big guy is fine being surrounded by a group of bodyguards, but when he talks there later, he may be in danger.

"Okay, during the safety period, we should install tempered glass protection, but is it too late to find it now?"

"We have it in the dormitory at the construction site." Kong Laoer said immediately: "We can install it in half an hour."
