Chapter 253 The Coming Change
The border between Siam and Hongsawady.

He Nianthaung Mountains in the middle of a low hills.

After continuous erosion and erosion, the mountains and rock formations here have been completely hollowed out, and a wide river channel is covered under a green umbrella.

Under the cover of green umbrellas, workers wearing exoskeletons are reinforcing the dikes on both sides.

Taking a vacation as an excuse, Wunan, who came here again, sat on an assault boat and inspected this artificial river with a width of 500-700 meters and a depth of 35-50 meters.

Wu Xiongshan, who is in charge of the project management, introduced to Wunan: "At present, he thinks that the project of the Wengshan Canal Hub has entered the final stage. In fact, it is already open to navigation."

"The upgrading of the Chao Phraya River is almost done. The locks and dams are ready for use, and the downstream channel has also been widened and deepened." Wu Nan put down the binoculars.

Then he asked, "Where is the Dangweng River Dam?"

Wu Xiongshan replied: "The ship lock has been built, and the dam body is almost the same through rapid pouring. The water turbine has not been installed yet, but the previous temporary river channel has been blocked. It will be completed in the middle of next month, and the water turbine will also be completed." Two will be installed, and the remaining four turbines will have to wait until June."

"So, wouldn't the canal be opened in March?" Wu Nan asked in surprise.

"The water level is not good enough. Only ships of 1 tons can pass through at most, and the company is still discussing whether to announce the canal in the near future." Wu Xiongshan reminded with some helplessness.

Wu Nan immediately reacted.

If it is only a medium-sized cargo ship with a few thousand tons, it will not attract too much attention.

The problem is that the initial navigable standard of the Dangweng River-Chao Phraya Grand Canal is 3 tons, and it can be further improved to a transformation potential of 5 to 6 tons in the later stage.

This will inevitably have a huge impact on the importance of the Strait of Malacca.

As for America and Xingdao, they will absolutely not tolerate the appearance of this canal.

Sing Tao cannot tolerate the emergence of the canal because it threatens the pillar industry of its port services.

America is because of its Changi base in the Strait of Malacca, which can block the sea throats of East Asia and West Asia. Once the canal is opened, the strategic position of Malacca will decline.

America would not have allowed the canal to exist unless Hongsawady and Siam were willing to surrender control of the canal.

This is like the Panama Canal in Central America. Obviously, a canal can be dug in Colombia. Why doesn't America invest?

The reason lies in the uniqueness of the Panama Canal, which makes it convenient to set up a card. Once there is an extra canal, it will increase uncertainty. At the same time, it is necessary to add another garrison base in America, which will increase the management cost.

Therefore, whether it is the Columbia Canal, the Kra Canal, or the Daung Weng-Chao Phraya Canal, they are uncertain factors in the eyes of America.

Wu Nan knows that in the past year, all parties have been in Siam, and the fierce confrontation with the company has never stopped at all.

Obviously, many forces do not want Siam to unite with Hongsawady and Luzon, and they are desperately destroying the relationship between the three parties.

After all, you can see the importance of Siam from the map.

Once there is a problem with Siam among the three parties, Luzon and Hongshawadi will be geographically separated, and communication can only be carried out through the Strait of Malacca.

This gave America a chance to take advantage of Luzon and Hongshawadi.

Wunan is basically sure that once the Tangweng-Chao Phraya Canal is announced, it will definitely cause an uproar.

"It seems that I will have to wait for a while before I can see the official opening of this canal."

Wu Xiongshan comforted with a smile: "Don't worry, that day will not be too far away, we have to believe in the power of the company."

After he studied at the Aung San Canal Junction.

Wu Nan ended his "vacation" here.

22 1 Month 9 Day.

The Kra Isthmus region of Siam.

With his entourage, Wu Nan arrived near the mouth of the Kela River, where there is a submarine base and an air force airport.

But he didn't come to inspect the army, after all, he wasn't in charge of the work.

The purpose of Wunan's trip is to visit the Kra Shipyard on the north side of the Kra River estuary.

In fact, the entire Kra Isthmus area has been completely turned into a large rubber plantation, and the local population has been transferred to other areas through various channels.

Only the direct descendants of Homo sapiens are left here.

Carat Shipyard is a shipyard in name, but it is actually a ship breaking yard and ship repair yard, and there is also a small steel factory here.

The raw materials of the iron and steel plant are scrap steel dismantled from abandoned ships and imported scrap steel.

On the TV screen, Wu Nan came here to inspect the steel factory and shipyard. In fact, he came to inspect another secret project hidden in the steel warehouse of the steel factory.

Below the steel warehouse.

Under the leadership of Wa Mu, the deputy manager of the iron and steel plant, Wu Nan took the elevator down to the underground space below.

The underground space is brightly lit.

Wamu pointed to the two tunnel entrances ahead: "Wu Nanan is long, this is the northern entrance of the Kela Tunnel."

Approaching the tunnel, the height and width of the tunnel are large enough, and both tunnels are three-lane.

The third tunnel for trains is also being excavated.

Sitting on the electric transport vehicle, they quickly passed through the 4.2-kilometer tunnel and arrived at the southern exit of the Kela River.

"This is the warehouse of a rubber processing factory." Wamu pointed to the ceiling above.

"How deep is the tunnel from the ground?"

"It's 58 meters."

Wunan asked another question: "How about the earthquake resistance?"

"It can resist strong earthquakes of magnitude 8.5. In addition, we have reserved quick repair pipes, which can quickly inject repair bacteria through small pipes."

"What about the river improvement project?"

Wa Mu hurriedly replied: "The mouth of the river is about 3.2 kilometers up, and the width of the river is 130-150 meters. In the early stage, in order to keep it secret, the river was not widened, but the river was deepened."

He continued: "For rivers longer than 3.2 kilometers, I opened up rubber plantations as an excuse, and then used green umbrellas as cover to open up two rivers with a width of 240 to 300 meters."

Wu Nan glanced at the planning map on the map: "How does the head office plan to deal with the last 7 kilometers?"

"I'm not too sure about this. Some time ago, a geological survey team came over and drilled hundreds of exploration wells there, and then they went back." Wa Mu scratched his head and replied.

"Geological survey team?" Wu Nan narrowed his eyes slightly, then waved his hands: "I see, you continue to improve this communication line."

Wamu nodded: "No problem, in fact, the road tunnel is now open to traffic, and the railway tunnel will probably be completed in July."

Wu Nan left the Kela Isthmus with a heavy heart.

In fact, he has already guessed something, but this matter is a bit sensitive, and Wu Nan knows that the head office must have considered various possibilities.

Therefore, he simply wrote a report, and did not ask how to dig the last 7 kilometers of land for the Kra Canal.

The internal strength of Homo sapiens is constantly increasing, and with the birth of a large number of new materials, various projects have also ushered in harvests one after another.

at the same time.

The situation in the South Asian subcontinent has also reached a critical point.

Because the three field divisions mobilized by Tianzhu from the south, as well as a large number of aircraft in stock, finally arrived at the front line at the west entrance of the Siliguri Corridor.

The strong smell of gunpowder can be smelled even thousands of miles away in Europe and America.
