Zaisangbo, also known as Zaisang Lake, is located in the upper reaches of the Irtysh River and is a typical freshwater huff and puff lake.

The Irtysh River originated from the border between China and Mongolia. After flowing for more than 500 kilometers in China's Xinjiang Province, it finally broke through the mountain blockade between the Altai Mountains and the Talbahatai Mountains in northern Xinjiang, roaring all the way The Zaisang Basin was formed, and a lake about 110 kilometers long and 30 kilometers wide was formed in this basin.

This lake is Zaisangbo.

Before 1959, the area of ​​Jaisangbo was only about 1800 square kilometers, with an average depth of about 5 meters.After the clear water of the Irtysh River rushed out of the surrounding mountains, it settled here, making this Zaisangpo a well-known plump place.

This area with rich water and grass has been the territory of China for thousands of years, but in October 1864, China and Russia signed the "China-Russia Survey and Division of the Northwest Boundary", and Russia used diplomatic fraud to misinterpret the "China-Russia BJ Treaty" "Relevant content, and threatened with force, finally cut off a total of 10 square kilometers of land from the east to the south of Lake Bar KS and from the north to the south of Jaisangpo.

Since then, this great river and mountain has become the territory of Mao Xiong.

After the October Revolution in Russia, the Red Giant stood up and planned to build reservoirs and hydropower stations in the upper reaches of the Irtysh River to make use of the abundant water resources in the upper reaches of the Irtysh River.

The project started in 1953, and the construction of the dam began about five kilometers upstream of the small town of Serebryansk on the Irtysh River.This dam is a concrete gravity dam with a maximum height of 90 meters and a crest length of 380 meters. On the east side of the dam, there is a one-way four-stage ship lock.

The dam was completed in 1959. After the completion, due to the existence of the dam, the 330-kilometer river channel upstream of the dam, including Jaisangbo, formed a new and huge reservoir - Bukhta Mull Reservoir.

With an area of ​​5490 square kilometers, the Bukhtamar Reservoir is the largest artificial reservoir in Kazakhstan and the fifth largest artificial reservoir in the world.Even in the former Soviet Union, this reservoir is second only to the Kuibyshev Reservoir with an area of ​​6450 square kilometers in the middle reaches of the Volga River and the lower reaches of the Kama River, ranking second among all artificial reservoirs in the former Soviet Union.

After the completion of the Bukhtamar Reservoir, the average water depth of Jaisangbo has increased from 5 meters to 12 meters, and the deepest area of ​​the entire Bukhtamar Reservoir is also as deep as 80 meters. The total storage capacity of the entire reservoir is as high as 496 billion cubic meters. It is more than 100 billion cubic meters more than the storage capacity of the Huaxia Three Gorges Reservoir.

Now, Yang Jing and the others are driving in the Bukhtamar Reservoir.

Although it is also surrounded by mountains, the Bukhtamar Reservoir is much wider than the Ust-Kamenogorsk Reservoir that just passed. After driving out of the canyon where the reservoir is located, the front is A huge water surface with a width of more than ten kilometers. This water area is only a small part of the entire reservoir, but it can contain the entire Tianqu city!

Yang Jing has seen the largest lake in the world—the Caspian Sea, the Xiaolangdi Reservoir, and the Toledo Bend Reservoir in the United States. He has seen a lot of things.

Although the water in the Caspian Sea is also very clear, it is a saltwater lake after all, so the color of the water is more like the ocean, that kind of blue.Although the water in the Xiaolangdi Reservoir and the Toledo Bend Reservoir are quite clear, it is still far behind the water in the Bukhtamar Reservoir.

The water in this reservoir is extremely clear. Under the sunlight, fish swimming three or four meters underwater can be seen clearly.After all, this is the upper reaches of the Irtysh River, and the clear snow-capped mountain melt water has gathered here almost without any pollution, so the water here is naturally very clear.

(PS: Speaking of clear water, Lao Mo suddenly remembered that he traveled to Sichuan and Sichuan last year. At that time, Lao Mo went to Jiulong County under Kangding, a small county surrounded by mountains and with an altitude of 3000 meters. In Jiulong County, there is a newly developed scenic area called "Wuxu Sea Scenic Area". The scenery there is really original, surrounded by snow-capped mountains, and the melted water flowing down from the snow-capped mountains is really clear and refreshing. Clean, Lao Mo poured a can of water and drank it directly, it was so refreshing and sweet)

And now that it has entered October and the temperature has become quite low, there are still a lot of greens on the mountains around the reservoir. Those gloomy mountains and the clear and calm reservoir like a mirror complement each other. How can the scenery be one? Can the word "beautiful" be enough to describe it?
"The scenery here is awesome! If there are still many things that I can't let go of, I really want to live here for three to five years!" Yang Jing stood on the deck, enjoying the surrounding scenery happily, and breathing greedily The clear air, while involuntarily admiring.

Old Ivan said with a smile: "Mr. Yang, you haven't seen a better scenery yet? We are here by boat this time. If you are willing to stay a little longer, we can turn east from the fork in front of the reservoir. After finding a pier to dock, you take a helicopter to Zilyanovsk in the east, and then depart from that city and head east to the Katokaragai National Nature Reserve, where the scenery is even more beautiful than here! Of course, We can also go on, and when we get to the corner of the reservoir, we stop at Naremskoye, from where we can rent a car and go to Katonkarage.”

"Yo? Is the view of that reserve nice?"

"Very good. Although it is not the best time to travel, it is also very good to see more snow-capped mountains now."

After a pause, the old Ivan continued to introduce: "This reserve was established in 2001, with an area of ​​nearly 65 hectares. It is a typical mountain-forest-meadow-grassland compound national forest park. Many tourists go there every year. , Many of you in Huaxia travel by car every year."

"Well, if we have time, let's go and have a look." Yang Jing said after a moment of pondering.Although this trip is mainly for tourism, it is still very important to find the whereabouts of that batch of gold, and Yang Jing doesn't want to delay his work by going to that national nature reserve.

Old Ivan nodded, then pointed to the lakeshore on the east side and said, "Did you see that small town? That is New Bukhtamar City. The railway line from Osk Gate passes through this small town. The terminus of this railway is the Zilyanovsk I mentioned just now. A lot of mineral deposits have been discovered around that city, so it is also a city mainly engaged in the metallurgical industry. But starting from that city, you can go deep into The Southern Altai Mountains in the east, there are many beautiful scenery in it.”

Yang Jing looked in the direction that old Ivan pointed, and found that the reservoir suddenly extended far, far east from that location, probably at least thirty kilometers.However, in the distance, you can still see the faintly emerging precious light. It is obvious that there are a lot of mineral resources in that area.

"This section of the reservoir is formed with the help of a section of the Berezovka River, a tributary of the Irtysh River. Our boat is a bit bigger. If it is smaller, we can go directly to Zilyanovsk along the river."

Yang Jing shook his head and said, "Let's forget it, let's go straight along the reservoir. By the way, where is the big Naremskoye you mentioned just now?"

"At the bend of the reservoir about 75 kilometers ahead, it is a famous tourist city, and many people go there for sightseeing every year."

The bend of the reservoir mentioned by old Ivan refers to the first big bend ahead of the Bukhtamar Reservoir.The Bukhtamar Reservoir is too big, and its length alone is 330 kilometers. Because this section of the reservoir is formed by the channel of the Irtysh River, so in front, the direction of the reservoir will be from the current northwest to southeast. Turn a big bend of more than 100 degrees directly, and then the direction of the reservoir will become northeast-southwest.

The Great Naremskoye is about [-] kilometers away from the Bukhtamar Hydropower Station. That is to say, when you reach the city upstream, you basically walk a quarter of the entire reservoir. the distance.

This wide area of ​​water happens to be located in the area where the Irtysh River and the Berezovka River meet, so after the formation of the reservoir, the width of this area of ​​water becomes extraordinarily wide. As far as the entire Bukhtamar Reservoir is concerned, this area The width of the water area is second only to that of Jaisangpo.

The length of this water area also exceeds [-] kilometers. After driving through this water area, it will enter the relatively narrow water area of ​​the reservoir again, and there are more mountains on both sides.

More than an hour later, when the Siberian Endeavor sailed through the wide waters and was about to enter the relatively narrow waters, Yang Jing inadvertently glanced at it with the Sky Eye skill, and suddenly felt something was wrong.

When entering the narrow waters from this wide water area, there is a mountain with an altitude of more than 800 meters on each side of the reservoir, guarding the place like two gate gods.The reservoir suddenly narrows from the width of seven or eight kilometers between these two mountains to only one and a half kilometers, as if it is a throat area.

This place actually belongs to the remaining veins of the Altai Mountains. The altitude of the peaks generally exceeds 600 meters, and these two mountains are 300 meters higher than the other peaks, so they are extremely eye-catching.

And under the big mountain on the west bank, Yang Jing saw a faint red light coming from the bottom of the water.

In fact, Yang Jing didn't realize that there would be treasures here at all. At first, he thought he was delusional, but when he unbelieved and used the skill of sky eye to observe carefully again, he confirmed that there was a treasure from the mountain on the west bank. At the bottom, there is indeed a faintly visible precious light emerging!

PS: Bow and thank you for the 100 tip of "w Gentle Knife".
