In the Bohai Bay, the sea breeze blows.

Zhang Xingyang was looking at a thick stack of hydrological data on a rusty scientific research ship that was not well maintained, and was constantly comparing it with the scene in front of him.

The salty sea breeze kept blowing, Zhang Xingyang squinted his eyes, thinking about the hydrological conditions here.

"Xing Yang, the conditions in Bohai Bay seem to be not good?"

Geng Bo on the side looked at the various records in his hand and couldn't help frowning.

The two went to sea this time to find a home port for the sea rocket launch platform that is about to start construction.

The sea rocket launch platform can be regarded as a new technology exploration route that has just emerged in recent years.

For some countries that have no territory or territorial waters in the equator region, it has great attraction.

As we all know, the closer to the equator, the more the rocket can take advantage of the additional speed of the earth's rotation on the equator when launching, thus saving the fuel of the launch vehicle.

Especially when launching a satellite in geostationary orbit, the satellite does not need to consume its own fuel to change orbit, which can greatly increase the service life of the satellite.

"Although the conditions in Bohai Bay are not good, we have no better choice."

"The conditions in the South China Sea are better, but it is easy to face the prying eyes of other forces."

"Based on the current situation of the Navy, once something unexpected happens, it will be difficult to support us in time."

Zhang Xingyang doesn't really want the sea launch platform to stay in high latitude areas like Bohai Bay.

But there is no way, the current family background of the navy is still too weak, and there is no way to maintain the safety of sea launch platforms in the South China Sea.

However, there is no such trouble in placing the sea launch platform in Bohai Bay. After all, to some extent, Bohai Bay can be regarded as our inland sea.

Even if any problems are encountered, the navy's fleet can take various measures in a timely manner, and it is still within the protection of the air force, so safety can still be guaranteed.

"Oh, when will the navy have an aircraft carrier!"

Geng Bo sighed and said a little uncomfortable.

The absence of an aircraft carrier is almost a pain in the hearts of everyone in the Dragon Kingdom in this era.

The navy has endured for so many years, and it will still be more than ten years before it can have its first aircraft carrier.

It is far from being exaggerated like a hundred years later when almost all the names of provinces are used up in the naming of aircraft carrier formations.

"There will be a 10,000-ton large drive, and there will be an aircraft carrier!"

Zhang Xingyang closed the hydrological data in his hand, expressed emotion to Geng Bo, and then changed the subject:

"Let's go, I have a lot of questions, I'm going to ask the people on the ocean research side."

The scientific research ship was swaying in the wind and waves, Zhang Xingyang and Geng Bo supported everything they could touch, and tried not to let themselves fall in the swaying of the wind and waves.

Both Zhang Xingyang and Geng Bo had never been on a boat before. When they first went to sea, they faced the scientific research ship that was shaking almost all the time.

I almost spit out my overnight meal.

In the cabin, several researchers who were investigating the hydrological situation in Bohai Bay just got up.

Last night they were busy investigating the hydrological conditions at night until five or six o'clock in the morning. They only slept for three or four hours before getting up again.

"Old Guan, wake up so early, don't you want to sleep a little longer?"

Zhang Xingyang was a little surprised to see that Guan Hao, the leader of the hydrological survey team, had already gotten up for breakfast.

He originally planned to eat something, and then slowly wait for the hydrological survey team to get up.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he entered the cabin, he saw Guan Hao eating steamed buns.

"As I get older, I don't sleep so well. They are still sleeping."

Guan Hao was quite kind, he called Zhang Xingyang over for dinner while talking.

"Come over and have some, the steamed buns are freshly steamed."

Zhang Xingyang and Geng Bo were not particularly particular people. They picked up the steaming steamed buns and ate them with the pickles on the boat.

It is difficult to eat fresh ingredients on the boat. If it is an ordinary fishing boat, it will be better, and there can be a few fish to improve the taste.

But let alone fishing nets on the scientific research ship, there is not even a fishing rod.

So food and drink can only rely on the supplies brought before uploading.

Zhang Xingyang talked about the situation in Bohai Bay with Guan Hao while eating steamed buns and pickling vegetables:

"Old Guan, is the storm in Bohai Bay the worst now?"

Although a lot of information has been obtained from various sources, Zhang Xingyang still wants to ask a lot of information from Guan Hao, a senior investigator who has been active in Bohai Bay almost all the time.

Guan Hao took a bite of the steamed bun in his hand, and picked up a pickle with chopsticks:

"It's only April, and it's not yet the time when the wind and waves are the biggest!"

"Hey, if you come in July and August when the waves are the biggest, the waves can directly cover this boat!"

"At that time, the waves were the biggest, as high as four or five meters!"

"However, in this kind of weather, it is generally not possible to go to sea."

Although several people have been on the boat together for several days, Guan Hao still doesn't know why Zhang Xingyang and the others went out to sea with him.

"By the way, what are you going to sea for?"

"Looking at your appearance, you don't look like people who want to make a living at sea!"

When Zhang Xingyang and Geng Bo boarded the boat, seeing their wobbly footsteps, Guan Hao knew that the two of them had never been on a boat before.

Zhang Xingyang and Geng Bo laughed when they heard Guan Hao's question and did not answer.

Geng Bo, on the other hand, was a little more straightforward, took a bite of pickles and said:

"Brother Guan, this pickle tastes good!"

Guan Hao also understood at this time that the goal of the two must be something that cannot be said.

So he stopped being entangled, smiled and said:

"My wife made this by herself. If you like it, you can take some with you when you get off the boat."

"Old Guan, I read from the information that the Bohai Bay still freezes in winter, doesn't it?"

At this time, Zhang Xingyang relieved Geng Bo in time.

"It will indeed freeze. Every year from December to March of the next year is the ice age in Bohai Bay."

"The freezing situation in the past two years has not been that serious. Thirty years ago, when I first started working in the hydrology department, I encountered a major ice disaster!"

"At that time, the thickest part of the ice on Bohai Bay was more than one meter thick, and a car could be driven on it!"

Guan Hao recalled the ice disaster, even though thirty years had passed, he still felt very unforgettable.

"At that time, hundreds of ships were frozen in the sea, and everyone tried every means to blast the ice!"

"HNA dispatched Il-28 bombers to blow up the ice, and even people like us use grenades to blow up the ice."

"You haven't experienced it before. The scene at that time was so spectacular!"

Zhang Xingyang silently recorded the ice situation in the Bohai Bay. It seems that the offshore platform has to face far more difficulties than he thought!
