- General Hassan immediately arranged for someone to send letters to the chiefs of more than a dozen tribes in the desert. They were summoned to Odarat.
A few days later, the chiefs, surrounded by their personal guards, arrived at Odarat.
General Hassan personally hosted a banquet in honor of them. These tribal chiefs are all local tyrants. Although. They have no fixed territory and make a living as nomads.
But his subordinates all have their own private armed forces, and they will be treated politely wherever they go. The government forces also have to give them some points.
But Hassan¡¯s relationship with them is indeed quite good. He hugged them in turn and called them brothers together. But when Hassan expressed his doubts.
These chiefs seemed not to understand this matter.
"Warehouse? Warehouse in the desert? We have never seen one. The desert is so big, it is in no man's land, and transportation is very inconvenient. Who would build a warehouse there?" A chief shook his head, "I have never heard about it."
"It is very likely that these warehouses are not built on the surface but underground. Although the desert is dry and hot, if it is an underground facility, it can achieve constant temperature and humidity. And the dry air is conducive to long-term storage of materials." Lin Rui explained.
"Underground engineering, establishing underground engineering in the desert is not an easy task. Such underground fortifications require reinforced concrete construction. In the desert, water is a very precious resource.
????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? "The other bearded chief also shook his head.
"It is very likely that these warehouses were established more than ten years ago." Lin Rui nodded. "Is it possible for you to recall whether anyone conducted similar activities in the desert more than ten years ago?"
"I have been the chief for less than ten years. If it had been more than ten years ago, I really wouldn't have known." The slightly younger chief from before nodded.
But the bearded chief seemed to have thought of something, "When you said this, I remembered something."
"What did you remember? Tell me." General Hassan nodded immediately.
"About ten years ago, there was a group of French people, they should be part of the address survey team, right? They came to look for oil near Western Sahara.
At that time, they established camps everywhere, stayed there for several years, and conducted decent surveys. But in the end, it seemed that no valuable oil fields were found. "The bearded chief explained. "I remember that they invested a lot of manpower and material resources at that time. "
"Oh? Oil exploration team?" Lin Rui thought for a while and asked, "Have they really stayed in the desert for several years?"
"Yes, that's true." Another chief seemed to recall. ¡°If you put it this way, I seem to have an impression.
They seemed to have an engineering team at that time, and it was quite large. The strangest thing is that they all came with engineering teams and a large number of construction machinery.
Everything is done by themselves. They chose a site in the desert and built a simple fence. Whatever is done is done within the walls. But there wasn¡¯t much contact with us. "
"Choose a site in the desert and stay there for several years. These are indeed suspicious." Hassan nodded, "Even more than ten years ago, the technology for oil extraction was not as advanced as it is now.
But to detect whether there is oil in a place, you only need a drilling equipment. No matter what, it only takes a few months to complete all the work.
It is impossible to stay in the same area for several years. Because whether there is oil or not, they can quickly find out through drilling.
If it is proven that there is no oil in a place, then there is no need to stay there. Not to mention, it usually takes several years in that place. "
The chiefs nodded to each other and said, "This is indeed true. We were wondering before, could they be doing something else?"
But we found that they seemed to have done nothing and waited for about two and a half years. These people withdrew one after another.
Everyone¡¯s guess at the time was because. These people did not find oil resources, so they withdrew.
And this happened many years ago. If you hadn't mentioned it just now, I wouldn't even be able to remember it myself. "
The bearded chief nodded, "That is indeed the case."
"Mr. Rick, do you think we are overthinking it? It is not unprecedented before for oil exploration teams to appear in the desert." Hassan thought for a moment and said, "After all, they probably did nothing but survey. Wells are being drilled there honestly.¡±
Lin Rui shook his head and said, "Drill oil."?? No, no, I know these drills can also explore oil reserves and serve as geotechnical sampling.
If the secret society wants to build a large warehouse in those locations. Then you must understand the geological and geotechnical conditions.
So it is very likely that they secretly established underground storage in the name of oil exploration. After all, as mentioned just now, it does not take two and a half years to detect whether there is oil in a small area. "
¡°That is, they showed themselves to the local nomads that they were here to extract oil. But in fact, they were digging and building underground storage.
In two and a half years, even a small construction team can still build a large underground storage as long as they have enough construction machinery. Hassan nodded.
"One thing can be proved, and that is the situation of water." Lin Rui turned around and asked the bearded chief, "You just said that water is a very precious resource in the desert. Did you find out during that period that these survey and construction projects Team transporting large amounts of water?¡±
"I have never seen this before. But there is one thing I have an impression of. You also know that the Sahara Desert is hot and dry, and water resources are very precious.
??Especially in those years, the drought was particularly severe. Several oases are almost exhausted.
Several nearby tribes were forced to migrate to find oases with more water. "The bearded chief nodded.
"That's right." Lin Rui turned around and whispered to Hassan. "The water source of desert oasis basically comes from groundwater. If you just explore for oil, it is impossible to lower the local groundwater level.
This shows that someone is taking a large amount of groundwater. Construction projects require a large amount of concrete. These concretes must be mixed with cement and sand, which consumes a lot of water. "
Hassan reacted immediately, ¡°So these people secretly dug underground warehouses and built underground warehouses with reinforced concrete.
Although they can hide their identities by prospecting for oil, prospecting for oil does not require such a large amount of groundwater. Unless you are doing underground construction.
In the desert, the storage capacity of groundwater is also limited. Extracting large amounts of groundwater will cause the groundwater level to decrease, and the water level of the oases will drop and be close to drying up. "
Lin Rui nodded, "That's what I want to say. No matter how well they hide it, they will still leave some traces."
