Chapter Ninety-Three: The Storm


Guam, the second important military base that the Navy must take after Hawaii, Guam, the southernmost island of the Mariana Islands, has become a very important base for the South Pacific Fleet, and is expanding an airfield for the former Japanese army.

@占领关岛时, there was a great exodus of the Japanese on the island, and only about 6,000 Chamorro and Japanese remained on the island, in fact, based on Indonesian and Malay ancestry, mixed with Spanish, Filipino, Mexican, and other mixed European and Asian blood.

But now the island is overwhelmingly Chinese, and the Chamorro and Japanese have been dispersed.

All of these small islands are easy to attack and difficult to defend, especially without the protection of forests.

Guam, on the other hand, has been cultivated for hundreds of years, with few forests and only a few low bushes.

The Mariana Islands once had a relatively advanced civilization, but the cultivation of crops on such small, closed islands was a devastating disaster.

Once diseases and pests and diseases occur, they are basically irremedy.

This may be the reason why the people who once lived on this island were finally evacuated.

So restoring vegetation and biodiversity is not just a matter of tactics, but more of a matter of survival.

The Mariana Islands are now only a freshwater recharge, supported by a small number of agriculture and seafood processing industries, and a great deal of vegetation restoration work has been carried out on the islands.

The entire archipelago is formed by volcanic and coral rising tectonics, and the shallow sea is home to a large number of corals.

However, due to the large number of immigrants from Japan, coral gathering was once very popular in Guam.

Maritime surveillance and fisheries authorities now prohibit coral collection.

As a result of the introduction of a large distant-water fleet, small fishing vessels at sea have almost disappeared and corals have flourished again in most of the sea.

The same fate was shared by the Marshall Islands and the Caroline Islands.

These were all territories that Japan acquired after World War I.

The four islands of the Whale Sea and the Mariana Islands are now considered part of Japan's territory.

However, this area is now called the Mariana Islands, because China has not joined the League of Nations, so now the resolution of the League of Nations is under the trusteeship of the Republic of China, but in fact, what power does the Republic of China have to manage here?

Coral, it is not a so-called luxury that offers human appreciation, it is a very important tectonist of the tropical seas, like forests on land.

Together with seagrass, they provide habitat for organisms, and this polyp inhibits plankton reproduction, absorbing and solidifying minerals in seawater.

Make seawater more suitable for living things.

In this process, coral reefs and coral tectonic islands are formed.

"Is it the island and the whole chain of shallow sea life that matters, or is it the narrow aesthetic of the individual that matters?"

Most of the people who come to poach coral are Malays and Indonesians, and they come to poach coral because they are bought by wealthy businessmen at high prices.

Among them were the literati and aristocrats of the Republic of China.

The fleet has dealt with three or four such incidents along the way.

The penalties imposed by the Maritime Superintendent and the Fishery Administration were very severe, with the vessels being confiscated outright, all proceeds seized, and directly imprisoned in the fleet.

Most of these people are sent to the nearest administrative branch and then sent to the country for hard labor.

In other words, as long as it encounters the Chinese fleet, there will be no return.

But despite this, there are still people coming, which shows how powerful the interests are.

These people are poor and severely undernourished.

Very thin.

But he still fights for his life in the ocean with such a body.

These people don't have much education and can't understand what the sea supervisors and fishery officials are saying.

I can't understand even in Malay.

But the experts on board still explained to them again and again.

When he came out of the cabin, the lecturer sighed: "Actually, it's really hard to say which is better to send them to the mainland or continue to let them fight hard at sea." ” "In recent years, not many fishermen have survived, and they have not been able to adapt to the complex environment of the mainland, including the air and some diseases that are not a problem for us, because their immune system has been lost, which is similar to when the Spaniards entered the American continent."

Zhang Chun was stunned for a moment, but he didn't say anything, just listened silently.

"In fact, when tropical rainforest organisms spread to the mainland, they also affected the immunity of people in the mainland, and some infectious diseases once appeared, but with the formation of human antibodies, they quickly disappeared.

The mainland has a large population and more opportunities for antigens to appear.

Medical schools are often quick to find a vaccine or a way to generate antigens from patients who have recovered.

But that's for the continental population, not for the South Asian island population.

They have been in a single environment for hundreds or even thousands of years, so there is not a single fisherman sent to the mainland. ” "How long does it take to rebuild the immune system in these populations."

"From the current point of view, it will take more than 50 years to gradually introduce species, properly vaccinate, and rebuild the immune system.

During this time, many people will die.

Especially the elderly and some frail, inbred offspring of marriage.

So we submitted a report to the government to slow down the pace of development to the south. ” Zhang Chun smiled slightly.

"But that possibility is decreasing.

In recent years, a large number of plastic and nylon products have appeared in the Guotong area.

The garbage and grease from some of the individual's cars and so on are entering the South China Sea through ocean currents, the equatorial current, and we have to build a marine garbage treatment plant in Cam Ranh Bay, and our fleet is often able to salvage a lot of this non-degradable garbage.

And the sea between the Indonesian archipelago is dying, most notably corals.

The coral reefs there are rapidly graying and whitening. ” "The tropical rainforests of the Malay and Indonesian archipelagos are also disappearing rapidly, so many scholars believe that the area needs to be conquered as soon as possible.

Otherwise, there will never be peace in the South China Sea. ” "At the moment our opinion is in a weak position.

Most people in China believe that the Kuomintang should be defeated and the whole nation should be reunified. ” "The more important question is whether to protect people first or to protect the environment first."

Zhang Chun couldn't help but ask: "What do you think of the Kuomintang?"

” "They see this as the price of human development, and that megacities such as Singapore and Kuching are being formed, and in order to support these cities, Sumatra and Kalimantan are cultivating land on a large scale."

"Isn't it that the output of fisheries and forestry is not enough for the food they need?"

Zhang Chun couldn't help but ask.

"They have exchanged all the output of fisheries and forestry and agriculture for luxury goods such as gold coral, and the wealth is concentrated in the hands of the rich, and the huge difference in the price of the products sold is also concentrated in the hands of these rich people.

They also smoke new types of tobacco, which also consumes a lot of supplies. ” "They made a lot of luxury goods, such as high-end porcelain, hype calligraphy and painting, hype mahogany furniture, and so on.

A small number of rich people are poor and extravagant, and most of the ordinary people who farm the land do not have enough food and clothing. ” "No matter what, there is always a flow of these supplies."

Zhang Chun asked.

"The rich, the big families, there are Chinese, there are Europeans and Jews," said several experts.

One of the experts said embarrassedly: "In fact, a considerable part of it has been exchanged with our country as raw materials."

Because we don't recognize gold, dollars, or pounds, and we don't recognize silver.

Only raw materials are recognized.

We even use the gold we produce to buy these raw materials and minerals. ” Zhang Chun sneered and laughed: "What products are imported?"

” "All minerals and agricultural products."

"Also export other products such as automobiles?"

"Exports, but in recent years, gold and silver have been exported."

"I don't know what the rich merchants and Jews are doing with the huge amounts of gold in their banks."

Zhang Chun said with a smile: "Currency, they think gold is currency.

If gold's monetary function is abolished, they are finished.

But don't underestimate these rich people, you must know that when most of the rich people in the world store gold, they are a huge force.

This force is large enough to wage countless wars and destroy all those who deny the gold currency. ” Zhang Chun stopped and looked at the eastern sky.

"The storm is coming."

The sea around the Mariana is where the equatorial currents meet, and these forces often mingle with the atmospheric circulation to form a cyclone of enormous proportions.

This tropical cyclone forms at intervals and rolls towards the mainland.

"Yes, a storm is coming, and the Met Office is using satellite monitoring systems to predict the direction of such cyclones, but it has only just begun.

It was after the second-generation satellite system was put in place. ” "When a storm comes, the minutiae are often not worth talking about."

Zhang Chun felt the gradually changing wind force and direction.

Several experts were stunned for a moment and fell into deep thought.
