Chapter 231 Stationed in the Pacific Islands

On April 1, 1937, the Chinese army began to withdraw its troops from the Philippine Islands, Guam and Wake Island, while Hawaiian Island was placed in the final stage of withdrawal.

On April 5, the East China Sea Fleet, commanded by Feng Zhaohui, was renamed the East Pacific Fleet, equipped with six destroyers, four submarines, 24 torpedo boats and some auxiliary ships, and sailed to Guam. Guam's military facilities are in

The damage in the war some time ago was not very serious, and it can be used after a little repair. In the future,

Island, Wake Island and Hawaii Island will all become the defense areas of the Eastern Pacific Fleet. From today on, the Eastern Pacific Fleet will regularly patrol the Eastern Pacific waters. However, the existing warships are a bit shabby! The largest warship is only five to six thousand

A ton of destroyers, mud horses, not even equipped with an aircraft carrier, I don’t know what kind of thinking this guy has.

Guam and Wake Island are now no man's land. As for where the original people went, it has nothing to do with the Chinese Empire. There is no need to ask how the Chinese people deal with those people who don't do our business. The Chinese Empire Construction Corps moved in for five days.

One hundred thousand workers have started to carry out infrastructure construction, and it is believed that a modern military port will appear on the Pacific Ocean in the near future.

There used to be about 15 million people in the Philippine Islands. After the Chinese retreated, they left behind nearly 2 million young and strong indigenous men and women. The rest were Chinese. As for where the other people went, no one cared. How to deal with these people?

The people of the weak country have the same methods as the people of the weak country. They are not good people! The next step for the people of the weak country is very important.

There is a constant need for labor. No one has made statistics on how many people were transported to the Hawaiian Islands. There will definitely be many people transported from the mainland of the country. The country is expanding its military at a large scale, and the young and middle-aged people of the country have to serve as soldiers.

, so who is going to do the work? So, these workers just fill this gap.

There were originally 65 million people in the Nissi Islands. After the scourge of the Chinese people, there are still about 25 million people left. Half of them are Chinese. The Chinese people captured many people from the Nissi Islands. Of course,

, and other methods are not excluded. Anyway, there are not many local indigenous people. The paralyzed indigenous people have become a scarce resource. Fortunately, some people from the country have left some, otherwise, such a vast area as the Pacific Ocean will not be able to survive without too many people.

After retaking the Nissi Islands and the Philippine Islands, the Construction Corps of the Chinese Empire suddenly had no shortage of workers. The Construction Corps immediately began to expand its team. These workers who stayed in China were blessed, at least they had enough to eat here in China.

It will definitely be much better than before. As long as you are willing to work, you will not be short of food and clothing. This is definitely much better than in the weak country. The people in the weak country will not be willing to feed you, and there will be no shortage of work.

, unless you think your life is too long.

Although the Construction Corps came in, the commander of the corps, Lu Contract, was so happy that he could expand his troops again. In terms of the number of people, the leader of the Corps, Lu Contract, probably had the most people. When a bunch of old guys got together, this

The goods are indispensable. Although the islands in the Pacific are already in the bag, the map area is large enough and there are enough islands. However, they will not spread it out on all the islands. The main task in the first phase is to spread out the islands.

After the construction of the ring road around the island is completed, another

Priority is given to the places where docks need to be built. Since it is an island dock, of course it is the most important. All materials entering and exiting must be completed by the dock. Well, the entire Pacific island is now lively, and millions of workers have arrived.

Spread out, haha, the Pacific Island has become a big construction site, and there are seas of people everywhere digging mountains and paving roads, mud horses, cheap labor is also wealth, how much labor value is created for a mouthful of rice, how can this business be so cost-effective?

nonsense!

The government agencies of the Chinese Empire are now busy again. There are many things waiting to be planned for such a large island. First, aerial photography must be carried out, and then short, medium and long-term plans must be studied. The current basic principle is that each island

Restricted areas must be designated inside, and the original ecological environment must be maintained, and swarms of swarms cannot rush in for development. According to the current situation of the Chinese Empire,

With the population structure and quantity, there is no need for so much land now. It is necessary to leave enough space for the future now and to slowly expand the development space according to the growth of population. Therefore, the Chinese Empire has initially determined that it will only be on various islands.

The land required for the establishment of cities and corresponding population in coastal areas, while the remaining land is all restricted and prohibited from development.

There is still a group of people who are most busy now, and that is the geological experts headed by Li Siguang. Although these islands cannot be over-exploited, it is still necessary to find out the financial situation here. Li Siguang, director of the Geological Bureau of the Ministry of Resources and Strategic Development of the Empire of China, has formed a

Powerful geological exploration teams have entered various islands in the Pacific and launched large-scale resource exploration throughout the Pacific Islands.

The Philippines is rich in mineral resources and occupies an important position in the world's mineral resource reserves. According to data from the Philippine National Bureau of Geology and Mining, calculated in terms of mineral reserves per unit area, the Philippines' gold reserves rank third in the world, and its copper reserves rank third in the world.

Reserves rank fourth in the world, nickel ore reserves rank fifth in the world, and chromium ore reserves rank sixth in the world. Among the minerals with proven reserves, there are 13 kinds of metallic minerals and 29 kinds of non-metallic minerals. Philippine Island Metal

Mine reserves are 1

billion tons, of which copper reserves are 400 million tons, accounting for .% of the total metal ore reserves. The Philippine Island copper mines are mainly porphyry copper mines, which are distributed throughout the country. The main copper mineral production areas are in the mountainous areas of Northern Luzon

The non-metallic mineral reserves are 100 million tons. The main gold mining areas are Baguio, Paracale, Masbate, Surigao and Masara

. Geological experts believe that based on the geological characteristics of the Philippines Island, the largest and richest gold deposits are likely to be contained in dislocation areas in the Philippines. Recent gold exploration operations have developed towards shallow storage areas. The total reserves of nickel ore in the Philippines Island are approximately

It is 190 million tons, accounting for 1.% of the total metal ore reserves. Among them, the proven reserves are 120 million tons, accounting for 93.2% of the total nickel ore reserves, with an average grade of .

23% ~ 2.4%; the expected reserves are 30,000 tons, accounting for .1%, and the grade range is .3% ~ 1.24%; the possible reserves are 1.21 million tons, the grade is .23% ~ 2.2%. Most nickel ores are high in nickel

Most of the bauxite content is in shallow soil layers, which is easy to mine and has low cost. Nickel ores are concentrated in Davao Oriental and Wan

, reserves are 4.0 billion tons (accounting for 43.9% of total reserves) and 410 million tons (accounting for 3.3% of total reserves) respectively. Other provinces with large-scale nickel deposits include Surigao del Norte and Zambales.

In addition, although there are many islands in the Philippines, most of them are planted with rubber, coconut trees, bananas and other crops, and the oil and gas resources stored under the sea are not very rich.

The Nissi Islands is a country rich in natural resources and is known as the "Tropical Treasure Island". It is quite rich in mineral resources, biological resources, agricultural resources and tourism resources, providing favorable conditions for the sustainable development of the country's economy.

According to later records, the Nisi Islands' oil, natural gas and tin reserves occupy an important position in the world. The oil reserves are approximately 1.2 billion barrels, mainly distributed in Sumatra, Java, Kalimantan, Zealand and Irian.

Jaya and other places. Indonesia also has huge natural gas reserves, about 12.39 trillion cubic meters (equivalent to 200 million barrels of oil), of which 24 have been proven

23 trillion cubic meters, mainly produced in Arun in Sumatra and Badak in East Kalimantan. The reserves of tin are 10,000 tons, mainly distributed in Bangka and Belitung, Xinge Island in the Lingga Islands, etc.

The proven coal reserves are 300 million

tons, mainly distributed in Kalimantan, Sumatra and Sulawesi. Most coal mines are open-pit mines with good mining conditions and good coal quality. The calories per kilogram are 4-kcal and the sulfur content is very low, but

The moisture content is slightly high.

The reserves are about 10,000 tons, ranking among the top in the world. The diamond reserves are about 10,000 carats, ranking among the top in Asia. In addition, reserves of uranium, zinc, copper, chromite, bauxite, and zinc are also abundant. According to the Indonesian Ministry of Energy and Mines recently

statistics, printed

Nigeria’s coal resource reserves are approximately 100 million tons, with proven reserves of 19.3 billion tons, of which 400 million tons are commercially mineable reserves. Since there are still many areas with unproven reserves, the Nissi government estimates that the total coal resource reserves will reach 900 million tons.

above.

Asia is the main destination for Nixi coal exports, accounting for more than % of total exports, followed by Europe and the Americas. The main export destinations in Asia are India, Japan, China, etc. Nixi coal exports to China have been exported for 21 years

Reaching 4.29 million tons, it has become the main source of coal in parts of southern China.

Food crops are the basic sector of the planting industry in the Nisi Islands. Rice is the staple food. Miscellaneous grains include corn, cassava, beans, etc. Nisi is the largest producer of beans in Southeast Asia, but the yield per unit area is low. Nisi is the only country with the largest planting area in the world.

It is the second largest producer of tropical crops after Brazil. Most of the economic crops are grown in plantations. Not only are there many varieties, but some of the crop yields are among the best in the world. Nisei's pepper, cinchona, kapok and rattan output ranks first in the world.

First place.Natural

The output of rubber and coconut ranks second in the world. The output of palm oil, coffee, spices, etc. ranks among the top in the world. Nisi is a fruit kingdom, rich in bananas, mangoes, pineapples, papayas, durians, mangosteens and other tropical fruits.

The forest area of ​​Nisi Islands is 120 million hectares, including 112 million hectares of permanent forest area and 10,000 hectares of convertible forest area. Nisi's forest coverage rate is .%. Nisi is rich in various tropical and precious tree species, such as ironwood

, sandalwood, ebony and sleeve wood are all world-famous.

In later generations, Nisi was one of the countries with the most serious anti-Chinese problems.
