Bright Sword: Start with Ding Blast Bridge, Homemade Sweet Potato Cake

Three months is enough time to do a lot of things.

But the Eagle Sauce must have had a headache in the past three months.

Their transport routes became troublesome.

I could walk in a straight line before, but now I have to take a detour.

As we have said before, the longer the route, the greater the burden on warships and transport ships. With an increase of several hundred nautical miles, the amount of fuel required to carry increases, while the amount of supplies that can be carried decreases.

If it previously carried 10 tons of fuel and 90 tons of cargo, the full load would be 100 tons.

Now it needs to carry 30 tons of fuel, 70 tons of cargo, and a full load of 100 tons.

For every ton of extra fuel consumed, one ton of supplies will be reduced.

If dozens of tons of fuel are consumed more, dozens of tons of supplies will be reduced.

If this is the case for one ship, what about ten ships?

In the past, we walked in a straight line, using the shortest distance.

Now we have to take a detour from the southernmost point, almost doubling the sailing distance.

The burden on logistics is heavy enough.

He urgently needed to establish a new logistics base here, so that he could draw material assistance from the local area.

Otherwise, the transportation cost alone would be enough to give you a headache.

When fighting a war, it's not just about the front line, it's more about logistics.

On the other side was the girl, who was eagerly waiting for the warship, especially Liu Weisi who had been slapped in the face.

He was holding a grudge in his heart and was determined to get revenge on Li Yunlong and the others.

No one talked about cruisers more than he did. As long as they got the cruisers, the navy would become the local bully.

He wants to take back everything he lost.

"Your Excellency, when will our warship arrive? It's been three months, and winter has arrived in the northern hemisphere."

Chekov blushed a little under the constant hints and urging. Logically, he should have sent the warship over long ago.

Half a year is enough to circle the earth.

"Don't worry, I'll ask again."

Some of the industrial equipment that was aided later have been transported here, but the warships that were aided earlier are still being repaired at the port.

Through encrypted telegrams, he tried hard to contact Admiral Panteleyev, the head of the port, to determine the progress of the warship's maintenance.

"Oh, the warship, the inspection is almost done. Don't worry, don't worry, don't you worry about our work?"

"But there is a big problem. The northern seas are frozen. As you know, I don't have an icebreaker, so I can't pry open those hard things."

"I am speeding up the application for several icebreakers. Once the ships are in place, I will personally drive the icebreaker to bring the aid warships over."

Chekov sighed and said, well, this is all that can be done.

He waved his hands at Liu Weisi.

There is nothing I can do, brother. It’s frozen and the power of nature is irresistible.

It is difficult for people living in tropical areas to imagine the coldness of the north. Chekov suggested that the two go to the port together to see the actual situation.

Only seeing it with your own eyes can make you believe it, and only then can Liu Weisi's anxiety be relieved.

Okay, that's a good idea.

Liu Weisi was eager to see where the warships were and see whether the Russian bear really wanted to provide assistance.

The patience of the big girl is limited, and the hawks on the other side are also adding fuel to the fire.

Whether it is with the Russians or the Americans, both big brothers have the strength and can provide assistance to the big girl.

This is a question of choice, and once the choice is made, one needs to consider cultivating the corresponding talents, whether to choose the hawkish faction or the bearish faction.

Warships are different, and the operations and techniques are also different.

This is obvious.

If you try to learn to walk in Handan, it is easy to end up learning nothing and forgetting your own abilities.

Chekov and Liu Wei were planning to take a plane to the port, when the first headache arose.

Which way to go?

If you drive in a straight line, you will definitely use the airspace of Longguo, which requires an application in advance.

As for the experts of the Russian bear, it doesn’t matter if you apply, it will most likely be approved directly.

But Liu Weisi had been in a big fight with Li Yunlong before, and now he wanted to borrow the airspace to go to the port.

Haha, don’t even think about it.

Let's take a detour and fly a long distance.

The plane that Danizi had didn't have such a long range and couldn't travel thousands of kilometers.

In the end, I had to beg for help and borrow a plane to take a detour to the harbor.

Chekov took Liu Weisi straight to the Soviet Pacific Fleet Headquarters and went directly to see Commander Panteleyev.

This has come to my doorstep.

Panteleyev made a small profit from the warships he had, but compared to the entire cruiser, this amount of money was nothing.

The value of a cruiser, especially one of this large tonnage, is at least four or five hundred million US dollars.

Although the specific cost data of the Type 68bis cruiser is not available, based on a rough guess, five or six target rubles are still possible.

The air defense and artillery capabilities of the Russians are inferior, so the overall cost will be lower. However, the overall value of a cruiser of 5 million rubles will not change much.

The current exchange rate between the ruble and the US dollar is close to 1/1, and the value is similar.

Panteleyev worked hard to tinker with the equipment, replacing old equipment with new ones, and after half a year he only earned 500 million rubles.

Compared with the entire cruiser, it's less than one percent of its value. How damn unlucky.

Because of this, he treated Chekov and Liu Weisi very badly, and called them in with a sour face.

"It seems that you don't believe my words and want to come and see the truth yourself. Look, look at the thick ice outside the harbor. I don't have any way to deal with it. You have to find a way yourself."

"No, no, no, General Leyev, that's not what we mean."

"I definitely don't mean to disbelieve you, I just came to check out the situation. Big Nizi's condition is quite complicated and she urgently needs support from warships."

Panteleyev rolled his eyes and said, "Your anxiety, girl, has nothing to do with me."

He had originally decided to release the warships once the ice period was over.

Now, never mind.

Now that Chekov is here, let him coordinate the resources himself and don't borrow any of the icebreakers he has.

All warships that were undergoing inspection and maintenance had to stop. Whether they could leave depended on their own abilities.
