Siheyuan: The soul travels through time and space to change fate

Chapter 543 Return to City 49 and continue to promote the Iridium communication system

At the Great Western Line exploration site, there were no problems with the route planning in the Kunlun Mountains area.

They completed the route planning in just seven days using the route that Xu Damao had outlined in advance using satellites.

In reality, it is just a field survey of the route outlined by satellite.

May 1959, 5, the fourth day of the fourth month of the lunar calendar, Monday.

That evening, the construction of the Great Western Canal began. The first thing to do was to dig a large canyon that ran through the entire Kunlun Mountains, so that water from the Tibetan plateau could flow north into the Tarim Basin.

It was on this evening that Yu Yang, Tan Ming and others found out why the higher-ups had agreed to such a large-scale project.

The Seventh Master Xie Bian and the Eighth Master Fan Wujiu led a large army of ghosts and dug their way through the mountain. In just one hour, they opened up a canyon that was one kilometer long and tens or hundreds of meters deep.

With such efficiency, it won’t take a long time to complete the Great Western Front.

At this rate, nearly ten kilometers of waterway can be dug in one day.

It would only take two or three months to drill through the Kunlun Mountains along the route.

As for the canal in the Tibetan plateau area, the work of digging it will be much easier.

After all, there is no need to dig such a deep waterway, let alone to cut through the mountain, so the excavation speed must be greatly increased.

Perhaps by the end of this year, this great western line will be fully connected.

"Yu Yang, Tan Ming, you will lead the team and follow the excavation team to ensure that the entire excavation work is carried out according to the route we planned.

I have already communicated with the Seventh Master and the Eighth Master.

If you have any questions, you can talk to them directly.

I have to go back to City 49. The Iridium communications satellite project must be accelerated.

And the ten or so satellites I have poked out from the plateau area should also be sent up.”

Xu Damao's purpose of taking this trip was to fill the entire planned route of the Great Western Line with thorny landmarks.

In this way, Xie Bian and Fan Wujiu can lead the ghost army to carry out the canal excavation work on their own.

Now that this task is completed, it's time for him to get busy with other things.

Whether it is the Iridium satellite communication system or the space station project, without his leadership, it would not be so easy to achieve in this era.

"Ah! This, this, is such a big project, I, I'm afraid I can't handle it!"

After hearing this order, Tan Ming couldn't stop shivering.

Not only because he will have to deal with the Black and White Impermanence in the future, but also because it is such a large project, it is too heavy a responsibility for him to steer the direction.

He was afraid that he wouldn't be able to do it well.

"You don't need to do engineering management work, Master Qi and Master Ba will take care of it.

All you need to do is coordinate the relationship between Master Qi, Master Ba and our material supply team.

Can't you do this?"

Many sections of the Great Western Line also require the construction of river embankments.

In this way, it is inevitable that a lot of supplies will be needed.

These supplies cannot be provided by Xu Damao, or the Hell of Thorns.

Then it can only be transported up by the military or the government.

At this time, Yu Yang and Tan Ming are needed to serve as the central liaison personnel.

"Oh, if it's just this job, I can do it!"

Tan Ming realized that he was wrong, and it was indeed the case that he had no qualifications to direct the Seventh and Eighth Masters in their work.

Yu Yang, do you have any questions?

"Report to the commander, no problem, the guard squad will complete the mission!"

His job is simpler, so there is no possibility of problems.

The next day, which was early Tuesday morning, Xu Damao and Shi Lin boarded an Osprey transport plane and came directly to the Northwest Base.

I originally wanted to take a transport plane directly back to Sijiu City.

Unexpectedly, the first satellite launch was going to be carried out here, so Xu Damao stayed.

Even at Lou Zhenhua's invitation, they carried out an inspection of the satellite and rocket, and only after confirming that there were no problems did they start the ignition and launch.

"Father-in-law, you still have to work harder! If you want to carry out manned space flight, the carrying capacity of your launch vehicle is still not good enough! I estimate that the Iridium satellite communication system here will be ready in two months.

When that time comes, I will start the construction of the space station.

How will we send our scientific researchers up there? You can't always count on me!"

There are already seventeen Iridium communication satellites lying in Xu Damao’s storage space.

He was confident that within the next two months, he would be able to manufacture the remaining fifty satellites and send them into space.

After completing this work, even if Xu Damao is not in a hurry, Leader Zhong, Leader Liu, and even other leaders will urge him to speed up the construction of the space station.

"Catch up with you? This is really difficult.

But don't worry, with a good start, the rest of the work will be much easier to carry out.

We will catch up with you sooner or later.

And the first satellite we launched was a 300-kilogram weather satellite, which is much more powerful than the Eagle Sauce and the Russian Bear. "

We already have satellite positioning systems, and will soon have satellite communication systems.

It is impossible for Lou Zhenhua and his team to develop any useless satellites.

After Xu Damao's reminder, they decided to develop a meteorological satellite first.

"Haha, that's true, but mine is a bit too high!"

What Lou Zhenhua said was right. Sooner or later, they will be able to carry out manned space flight on their own, but for now, Xu Damao still needs to be responsible for the transportation work for a period of time.

In the early morning of May 5, the satellite was successfully launched and also transmitted back very clear weather pictures.

In terms of communication, this level was achieved by using several satellites of the Iridium communication system.

Although it is something that is very worthy of joy and also worth publicizing.

However, in the Republic, which already has a satellite positioning system and a satellite communication system, this event can only be celebrated internally.

You can't just tell those people abroad that the satellites they sent up before were actually sent up with the help of gods, right?

That afternoon, Xu Damao returned to the old city he had been away from for nearly two months.

As soon as I entered the house, I was bumped into by a little kid.

"Hahaha, good boy, you can run away now!"

Xu Damao picked up Xu Wenqiang and hugged him. He still missed his son a little.
